Version 1.0 is not just a game. It is a raw, unfiltered expression of a development team working at the absolute peak of their creative and technical limits, unshackled by the corporate panic that would arrive six months after its launch.

Once you have version 1.0 installed, do not play it vanilla (it crashes on modern OS). Follow this "Essential 1.0 Starter Pack":

Almost all major mods, including script loaders like CLEO and the San Andreas Mod Loader, were built specifically for the 1.0 executable.

Finally, consider the narrative. Version 1.0 was released before the “gang violence” controversy forced Rockstar to publicly distance itself from the content. In 1.0, Officer Frank Tenpenny’s corruption is not cartoonish villainy; it is systemic. The game’s critique of the LAPD’s CRASH unit, the war on drugs as economic warfare, and the predatory nature of redevelopment (the Mulholland Intersection) is sharper in the original script.
