Whenever I try to mod the .dat files (say for a greater view distance) the .dat files are overwritten before the game even starts despite the fact I set them read-only.
Where does the game executable or dll's get the necessary rights to change the read-only bit? What's even more bizarre is I don't have the option to take ownership of the files in question.
What if I change the permissions for the file so that everyone else except my (administrator account) username only has read and read & execute permissions? Would that stop Rockstar from butting in where they're not wanted?
