Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City
Issues and Fixes
Crashing
When starting the game, you may be notified that the file WMVCore.dll is missing. If you're running the game via Steam, this notification may not appear and the game will simply crash after prompting for Social Club login information. This may be due to missing codecs. If you are running Windows 7, this can be solved by installing the Media Feature Pack for Windows 7 N and Windows 7 KN (KB968211) (this will require you to validate your copy of Windows 7).
