I just got mine working for the first time, here's how I did it on Windows 10 64bit.
1) Get vice city to load a new game, this means:
1.1) Open install folder, and set WinXP compatability on gta_vc.exe
1.2) Install the SilentPatch for GTAVC and the DDraw.dll too. - https://gtaforums.com/topic/669045-%F0%9F%8E%82-silentpatch-%F0%9F%8E%82/
1.3) Now GTA Vice City should be able to start, and start a new game also.
2) Install VCMP 0.4
2.1) Run as administrator.
2.2) Open VCMP and go to Tools -> Settings, change "Updater URL" to "http://u04.thijn.ovh"
If it has a / at the end of the url then it will break by the way
? take notice of that lol.
2.3) Connect to any 0.4 server, it should update and load into the server.
3) You are now playing VC-MP!
I am using the Steam version, fresh install, but because vice city is now abandonware the fresh install does not work without SilentPatch.
I hope this helps? happy holidays.
