CLEO for GTA San Andreas: installation and usage of scripts

How to Install Cleo on an Android Smartphone or Tablet

You can play GTA not only on a PC, but also on a phone or tablet. Therefore, the developers of Cleo have optimized the script for Android devices.

Every fan of the game knows what Cleo is. But not everyone knows how to use it on a phone. With the release of GTA SA on Android, gamers wondered if the same programs could be downloaded to their mobile San Andreas. Yes, it is possible to do this if you follow the guide.

There are 2 ways to install Cleo in the downloaded game. In both methods, it is not necessary to use a PC for the game — you only need an Android tablet or phone.

In the first option, you need to get root access on your Android device. This is done through phone apps, but it is important to note that software updates will then become unavailable.

Using these rights, you can edit or delete system files, loaded applications, hidden from the owner in normal mode. The user gains access to improving the OS performance by downloading special applications. And an additional advantage is that you can completely get rid of ads placed in applications and games.

There is a simple way to acquire root access. First, you need to make a backup of the phone's system and transfer everything to a PC or flash drive for future recovery. It is advisable to synchronize all contacts and photos.

Next, you should allow the installation of applications from unofficial sources in order to download and run programs to obtain the necessary rights.

The most popular and reliable ones are:

• CF-Auto-Root.
• Framaroot.
• KingRoot.
• Towelroot.
• iRoot.
• Kingoapp.
• Framaroot.
• Universal Androot
• WeakSauce.

The operation is simple — just open the program and click "Next" until the process is complete. Then download the Root checker app. The application shows whether there is access to root rights.

If there are any doubts about a certain Cheat Menu option, it is best not to change its value. With regular rights, it is impossible to harm the phone and its software, but the owner of root rights can definitely do so.

Installation instructions for Cleo:

1. Download the latest version of the Cleo GOLD program from the internet. It is available on Google Play, but it is paid, so you can try to find it online.
2. In the "GTA SA" tab, click Install. If an error message appears, most likely root access was not obtained or the program cannot access it.
3. A list of scripts will appear. You can click on any of them. A menu will appear where you need to click Install again.

Now the script is loaded into the game and can be used through the phone.

To launch the Cleo menu with the scripts, swipe your finger from top to bottom of the screen through the center. A menu will appear, and to control it, press:

• up or down buttons;
• you can select a script by tapping the center of the screen;
• in most scripts, selections are made by touching the left, right, top, or bottom of the screen;
• confirm the action by touching the center of the monitor.

These rules apply to the scripts that are already in the program. They are standard and do not need to be downloaded separately. To add scripts from the internet, you need to download them to your phone using the following path: android/data/com.rockstargames.gtasa.

Scripts can only be used if they have been ported in advance for Android devices. Otherwise, they cannot be launched.

The script for GTA SA Mobiles is released in the csa format. It is important not to confuse them with versions for PC, which are in the cs format.

The second method is suitable for users who do not want or do not know how to gain root access. It is much simpler and faster. You just need to download a modified apk of the game with the built-in Cleo library.

Detailed instructions:

1. Install GTA SA Mobiles on your phone if you haven't done so before.
2. Launch the game and immediately exit it so that the program automatically creates cache files in Data.
3. Go to Android/obb/com.rockstargames.gtasa and rename the file. Or simply add a symbol to the name. Perform the same operation in Android/data/com.rockstargames.gtasa. This is necessary to save the game cache when removing the old apk.
4. Delete the original apk that was downloaded by the game.
5. Install the apk with the built-in Cleo.
6. Rename everything back to what was specified in the third step.
7. Launch the game and check if the scripts have been installed.

If the game does not work, check each step again, as there may have been an error.

You can download the game with the pre-installed Cleo system from the internet.

The Dangers of Obtaining Root Access

By using root access, the user expands their control over the phone, can manage files, and gains access to applications and the system as a whole. However, there are potential problems that can arise with an improper approach.

The user may encounter the following difficulties:

• After obtaining root access, the user cannot send the phone for warranty repair, which is immediately voided. Therefore, the rooting process is not recommended until the warranty period for the mobile phone has expired.
• The operation is risky, and incorrect actions can damage the system. As a result, the device can become a so-called "brick".
• After gaining root access, the phone may experience unstable performance. By working with files or loading various tweaks, the user interferes with the integrity of the system, which leads to "lagging". Sometimes the phone simply stops working.
• System updates cannot be installed after gaining root access. The user cannot install Android 10 to 11 updates, even if the manufacturer initially provides such an opportunity.

For these reasons, specialists recommend obtaining new rights only if the user knows what they are doing and already has similar experience.

Instructions for Installing Cleo Scripts (Mods) for GTA San Andreas

To install Cleo, follow these instructions:

1. First, download the Cleo library. You can do this on a specialized GTA website. New scripts may not work if an old library is downloaded, so it is advisable to look for new versions.
2. Place the files from the downloaded archive into the game folder and confirm their replacement if prompted by the phone.
3. After downloading the library, you can download any scripts and place them in the game to use them on the phone through Cleo master SA.

Installation of Cleo scripts consists of several steps:

1. Go to the installed GTA San Andreas folder.
2. Find the folder named CLEO.
3. Move the downloaded Cleo script into the CLEO folder.

Installation is complete, you can go to the phone and check if everything went well.

A Cleo script is an unofficial addition to the game that allows for the creation of various additional game scenarios, specifically designed for one of the games in the Grand Theft Auto series by Rockstar Games.

The gameplay is already quite diverse, but it can be expanded even more by downloading new scripts or modifying existing ones.

Cleo scripts for GTA SA are created using the Sanny Builder program and packaged into separate files with the cs or csa extensions for Android. Anyone interested can learn this process in order to play the game themselves or share scripts among millions of GTA fans — users of the Cleo library.

With scripts, you can create new gameplay options and missions or add new characters to the game, giving them different abilities, such as super speed or even flying. You can even completely modify in-game applications using small scripts that can be downloaded to your phone or PC in just a few minutes.

The advantages of the library are:

• simple and fast installation;
• formation of script commands (opcodes) and new sound systems;
• creation of external missions, support for plugins.

Cleo is a space for implementing any ideas for modifying the beloved game Grand Theft Auto.

The scripts themselves are small files that are moved into the game when the Cleo library is present.

With them, it is easy to give the main character the ability to explode objects from a distance or add a speedometer to the game, make the environment realistic by introducing fuel and the ability to refuel at gas stations.

It is much easier to use Cleo scripts for GTA SA on PC. The developers optimize the files for programs that load them into the game completely automatically. However, this option is suitable only for people with a good internet connection. If the internet is weak, you can download an archive for manual installation of the mod and run them on your own. The process takes time, but the result is the same — full compatibility with GTA.

Specialists recommend installing mods automatically — it not only simplifies the installation process but also provides the function of quickly removing any mod.

How to Remove Cleo from GTA San Andreas

Some mods can conflict and interfere with the gameplay. Sometimes the game simply does not start if multiple mods are installed. Therefore, it is important to know how to remove the Cleo library from GTA SA. To do this, simply delete the CLEO folder in the root directory of the game.

Do not save the game when a script is installed. If you do, the mod will continue to work in that save file after it is removed.

Which Other Games Support Cleo

Cleo Mod scripts are different from similar scripts in other categories. They are specifically designed to connect and synchronize with the game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. These files will not work with other games.

The Cleo script for GTA SA Cleo 44 is an additional script specifically written for the Grand Theft Auto III, GTA Vice City, and GTA San Andreas series. These games have diverse gameplay, but it can be expanded by adding new features (such as drifting with a car) or modifying existing ones.
