This is a tutorial and is C&P from another site. I did not make this tutorial.
Close out of skype and open(port forward) port 80.(If you do not know how to port forward there is 1000’s of people that show you how.)
Once you have done that plug your Ethernet cable from your PC to Xbox and then on your PC share your wireless connection with your Ethernet. CONNECTION MUST BE SHARED NOT BRIDGED.
Open up command prompt, if you do not know how to do this just go to you window button and search “cmd” && press enter.
Find your IPv4 Address.
Then go to windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts Edit with notepad(++)
Go to the bottom of the file and write something like this: (Your IPv4 Address) prod.cloud.rockstargames.com (e.g. 198.162.0.1 prod.cloud.rockstargames.com)
Once again go to the windows button & search Internet Options then click security/restricted sites/sites type prod.cloud.rockstargames.com in the top block click add then click out of it and then ok
Once you have done all that extract the file you downloaded earlier if you have not already(put it on desktop for ease of access)
Go to settings and make sure both ports are set to 80.
Once you have done that go to Apache and make sure it’s running if not click start.
Once you have done all that you are ready to go
Go crazy and don’t pay ******bags to recover your account to do something that costs ZERO to do.
Alternate Methods
Host File Redirect
Modify your hosts file in “Windows/System32/Drivers/ect” and add
173.236.165.116 prod.cloud.rockstargames.com
to the next empty line and save it, I recommend moving it to the desktop to edit it.
YOU DO NOT NEED TO RUN A SERVER TO DO THIS METHOD JUST A SHARED CONNECTION WITH YOUR COMPUTER AND XBOX.
Xbox DNS modification
Go to System Settings>Networking Settings> Select the network used and change the primary dns address to
199.101.103.67
Then test connection, you may have to clear the system cache for the mods to take effect!
I’m ****ing done… I did this successfully, got on GTA, got a **** ton of network errors trying to connect to a lobby, got my 140 character deleted. I’m done. Sooooo done.
I was just in a lobby with someone who got it to work, went from $11mil to $1.5bil, he just kept robbing stores and splitting the money 5% for everyone.
