Game launches vanilla GTA V instead of RAGE MP

[SergeyFomik]

Dear RAGE Multiplayer Support Team,

I am writing to report a persistent issue that has been preventing me from launching the game for the past three weeks.

Description of the Problem:
When I click "Play" on any server in the RAGE Multiplayer client, instead of launching the mod, it starts the vanilla (standard) version of Grand Theft Auto V. The RAGE MP client seems to disconnect or not inject properly, and I am left with the single-player game.

What I have already tried:
To resolve this, I have attempted numerous solutions, including:

1. Reinstalling both GTA V and the RAGE Multiplayer client completely.

2. Updating my graphics card drivers to the latest available version.

3. Using a VPN to rule out any network-related issues.

4. Ensuring that I do not have any "reduct" or other modification files that could cause conflicts.

5. Verifying the integrity of the game files through the Rockstar Games Launcher.

My System and Game Info:

• GTA V Version: I have a legitimate, licensed copy of the game.

• Previous Status: Everything was working perfectly before this issue started.

Despite all my efforts, the problem remains unsolved. I would be extremely grateful if you could help me figure out what is wrong. Please let me know if you need any additional information from my side, such as log files or system details.

Here are the logs during the opening of the game
