GTA IV PC – Performance Tuners

Users Running 3rd Party Graphics Performance Tuners

There has been a reported issue of textures not loading in.  If you are experiencing visuals that resemble the screenshot below it may be associated with third party graphical performance tuners.

We recommend that users follow the steps below to resolve this:

Step 1) Go to “Add and Remove Programs” within the Control Panel.  Scroll through the list of installed programs and look for any third-party driver performance tuners that may have been installed previously. 

Step 1a) If you find any of these performance tuners open the application and reset driver values back to default.  This is very important!  Do not uninstall this program before you revert the changed values. 

Step 1b) Now close the program and uninstall it.

Step 2) Go to “Add and Remove Programs” within the Control Panel.  Scroll down the list of programs and remove any program with NVIDIA or ATI in the name.

Step 3) Reboot your machine.

Step 4) Download and install the latest drivers for your graphics card from one of the following locations: http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us  or http://ati.amd.com/support/driver.html and save them to your computer. 

Step 5) Run GTA IV

If your textures are still not loading in then you may have residual files from uninstalled drivers left on your machine.  In order to fix the former, we recommend that you take the following steps:

Step 1) Find a reputable tool that is known to clean files leftover from driver tuners.  You can search for these on the Internet.

Step 2) Uninstall your display drivers again.

Step 3) Reboot your machine.  While booting up, hold F8 until prompted with Windows Advanced Options menu.  Choose to enter Safe Mode. (Newer computers may require you to press F8 multiple times before being prompted).

Step 4) Once in Safe Mode, setup the program found in Step 1 to search for display drivers. Run the appropriate cleaning option.  Reopen the tool and make sure that no other display driver files are found.

Step 5) Install the latest drivers that you downloaded earlier.

Step 6) Reboot your machine and load Windows up normally.

Step 7) Play Grand Theft Auto IV.

I've done exactly what it says, still no textures loading in. According to me it's just a failure in the script of GTA VI why textures are not loading it. Posts have shown it has nothing to do which serie of videocard you have. The problem lies with Rockstar - the thrift on releasing gta VI before christmas and before the old Spaniard was too much, this had a negative outcome on the quality of the release though. Very sloppy, Rockstar.

Probably a patch is coming out soon. Still, it would be better if they just released the game without those stupid bugs, because it gives the game a bad name... Too bad.

Laten we maar weer terug naar nederlands gaan..
