Grand Theft Auto 4

I notice with Patch 2 graphics look better, seems better lighting.

Anyone roughly around 30% to 50% through the game? If so could I have yer game save as I've lost mine :(.
 
I'm probably 30% through as I tend to arse around with driving :p

Can send when I get home!
 
Well finally managed to get it working last night after updating anything I could think of last night and then having to reinstall it again grrr. Only had a quick stab at it but should have plenty of time tonight to get stuck into missions.
 
I have to agree about the story....first 20% made sense ....then 20-30% of cons insulting you then "oh get this [insert item) which i got a little tired of. From about 40 to 60% (completed it) just introduces 6 other people each with 5ish missons but very little in the way of connected story line ... "go see my mate, he'l hook you up" ...hmmmm.

Good game, i enjoyed it but expected more heli missons.

No AA and crazy GPU memory requirement (1.5GB on max) did it for me.
 
Is this a bug? I came beck to my safehouse in a corvette-type car and I see about 6 or 7 of the same car parked up around the block. No other car types were parked up, just corvettes.
Click me!

That's a fairly extreme example, but you're always more likely to see more of the same car you are driving. No-one knows why, but this bug/feature has been there since GTA3!
 
That has happened to me with a Comet and Banshee before as well :confused:

Anybody got any suggestions about my problem with the Video Memory Error in post 4256?
 
yep mate sharpygsxr for me and also add nieldo

Were playin free roam mode mainly just havin a laugh wrecking the place and seeing how long we can fend off the fuzz :)

I'll try and add you tonight Sharpy if I can, I think my live tag is Mr.Delvis on there though, as some nub took Delvis :p
 
I'm getting a weird problem with GTA 4. I get an 'Out of Video Memory Error'

However it doesn't run out of Video memory but the game runs my machine out of ram :/

Any Advice

Cheers

I had this problem, I was able to resolve it by lowering Textures to medium (I notice you have them set to high). I think the problem is that because I have a 1GB video card, that means that 1gig of my RAM can be swallowed just for textures, even before anything else is taken into consideration. Vista x64 generally wants at least a gig for itself plus background tasks, and then GTA4 will grab the remaining 2gig.

IMO GTA4 is the most demanding game on the market, for optimum performance you need a quadcore CPU and 6GB RAM (unless maybe you have a GPU with low VRAM, then 4GB might be enough).
 
Weirdest thing I've ever seen on steam just as I was trying to luanch GTA4. Said "Your files have a lot of high level fragmentation, This cab cuase long load times. Would you like steam to defrag your files?".

Can you guys add me. When I do friend request it won't let me search for people just brings up a list of people I've played with. My tag is MIKEYMCC.

It's handy sometimes, you can do it manually on all of the games I think.
