GTA 5 mod that added GTA 4's Liberty City hit with a "friendly takedown" after contact from Rockstar, but the modders insist "there is no negativity between us" and the official devs

The team behind the massive GTA 5 mod that added a fully functional Liberty City to the game says it's "decided to take down" the project "after speaking with Rockstar Games," in a move that was "mutually agreed upon by all parties involved."

Known as the Liberty City Preservation Project, the mod surged in popularity recently for its incredible attention to detail. Beyond the classic GTA 4 locations, it boasted a working subway system, ambient traffic, and even preserved the notorious swing set glitch. It was arguably the next best thing to an actual GTA 4 remake, and considering it was a totally fan-made project, it was very impressive. Now, though, the devs have removed all their download links, and no one is allowed to share links to it in the official Discord server, either.
