A GIFT'S JOURNEY
How a gift reaches the game
Four stops, in under a second.
A viewer sends a gift
From TikTok, Twitch, Kick, YouTube or Starvios: a gift, a follow, likes or a chat command.
OverInteractive
Receives the event, checks your active profile for the matching effect and sends it.
GTA San Andreas mod
A mod the app installs in the game folder. It applies every effect inside your game and also opens the game in a borderless window that keeps running while you are in OBS or the chat.
GTA San Andreas · your game
The effect reaches CJ as soon as the gift arrives, while you play the story.
STEP BY STEP
Getting started
Everything happens from the game's status bar, at the bottom of the app.
- 1
The app finds your game
It detects GTA San Andreas in your Steam library. If it lives somewhere else, press «Set path» in the «Game» step of the bar below and pick the folder with gta-sa.exe (Steam) or gta_sa.exe (1.0 US).
If that folder contains a «Gameface» folder, it is the Definitive Edition: not compatible, and the app will tell you.
- 2
Install the mod in one click
Press «Install mod» with the game closed. The app puts the OverInteractive mod in the game folder; if you already have another mod loader (for CLEO, for example), it leaves it alone and works alongside it.
- 3
Open the game
Open it from Steam or with «Launch game». It opens in a full-screen borderless window: you can switch to OBS or the chat without flicker or pausing.
- 4
Load a game and wait for «Connected»
The bar below switches to «Running · Connected». As soon as CJ is on the street, every gift reaches your game.
- 5
Choose what each gift does
In «Profiles» create an example one in a click or build your own: each gift, follow or chat command fires the effect you pick.
EFFECTS
What your chat can do
Each effect is assigned to a gift, a follow, likes or a chat command.
Vehicles
A tank or a Hydra in front, swap the car on the move, no brakes, take it apart piece by piece, flying cars, pink or turbo traffic and road accidents.
Enemies
Armed gangs, spec ops, chainsaw clowns, motorcycle cops, rocket-launcher pedestrians, riots… or Grove Street bodyguards.
Police
More stars, six stars at once, set the exact level, clear it or a circle of bribes.
Weapons and money
Any weapon, heavy weapons, infinite ammo, take them all away, money in or out, a cash rain and a care package.
World
Storm or fog, time of day, slow or fast motion, Matrix mode, explosions, earthquake, minefield and a black hole.
Screen
Flashbang, thermal or night vision, drunk and cinematic bars.
Cheats
Any of the game's cheats. The ones that switch on and off last as long as you say and switch off by themselves.
Custom Command
Write your own effects by combining cheats and game commands, with templates to start from. Plus a panic button that stops it all.
IMPORTANT
Before you go live
Experimental integration
It is being built and changes often. Test it before using it on a live stream.
Not yet: Definitive Edition and The Trilogy
It works with the classic 2005 San Andreas (Steam or 1.0 US). The Definitive Edition and «The Trilogy» are a different game under the hood, rebuilt on another engine, and aren't compatible for now. The classic hasn't been sold since 2021: a recent purchase or GTA+ means the Definitive Edition.
Definitive Edition: under study
We are looking into supporting the Definitive Edition and The Trilogy, but it depends on your reports. If its use isn't reported, we will prioritize the moddable versions over the store versions. Do you play it? Tell us on Discord.
Effects need a game in progress
In the menu, in a cutscene, while dead or when the game takes control away, the effect waits a few seconds and, if it can't run, it is dropped with the reason.
Some are situational
Vehicle ones only work if CJ is in one, and the abduction only on foot. If that isn't the case, the command fails with the reason instead of doing something else.
Careful when saving
The money, weapons and stars the chat leaves are real. If you don't want them in your save, don't save right after a burst of effects.
FAQ
Check three things. The name: the classic is called just «Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas»; the other one says «– The Definitive Edition» or comes inside «The Trilogy». The folder: the classic has gta-sa.exe (Steam) or gta_sa.exe (1.0 US) next to models, data and audio; the Definitive Edition has a «Gameface» folder. The size: the classic takes about 4 GB and the Definitive Edition about 19 GB. The look no longer helps: since 2024 the Definitive Edition has a «classic» lighting mode that looks very similar.
No. Rockstar pulled it from every store in October 2021. If you already had it on Steam or the Rockstar Games Launcher, you can still install it from your library. If you bought it later, or play it through GTA+, you have the Definitive Edition, which isn't compatible for now.
We are looking into it, and the decision depends on reports: if many streamers use it and tell us on Discord, it moves up the list. Otherwise we prioritize the moddable versions. Meanwhile, the mod doesn't work with it.
No. The mod works with the Steam version as is and also with 1.0 US, the one the modding community uses. If your exe is another version, the app tells you when installing.
In San Andreas body armor doesn't change how CJ looks: it shows in the white bar under the clock, above health. When given, that bar fills up, flashes and the pickup sound plays, just like health and money.
On PCs with several graphics cards or monitors, the game opens a small window at startup to pick the display, and sometimes it hides behind the others. With the mod installed it is accepted automatically; if it happens without the mod, find it in the taskbar and press OK.
Yes. In the game's scripts folder, open OverInteractive.GTASA.ini and set Mode to fullscreen (or window for a framed window). With Background=0 the game pauses again when it loses focus.
They work together. If you already have a mod loader, the app leaves it alone and only adds its own mod to the scripts folder.
Wait until you load a game. If it still doesn't connect, close the game, press «Reinstall mod» from the ⋯ menu of the «Mod» step and open it again.
