^I had that as well. There were missions where you had to dress in formal and I was in full gear (suited up) except for the shoes and they told me I wasn't and I had to drive all the way back to change.

The clothing was acceptable, but the game script didn't bother checking that.

Same as when Packie told me to get dressed nicely for a mission.

Edit: Also, the smearing filter is terrible, wish I could turn it off without patching game files.

GTA IV Save File Locations
  • Windows Vista: "C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Rockstar Games\GTA IV\savegames"
  • Windows XP: "C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\Rockstar Games\GTA IV\savegames"

Games for Windows ? LIVE File Locations

  • Windows Vista: "C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Microsoft XLiveb>\Content"
  • Windows XP: "C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft XLiveb>\Content"

First thing's first, backup the folders in bold. Then, uninstall and reinstall GTA IV and Games for Windows ? LIVE. Once that's done, copy and paste the backed up folders to their respective directories.

2 nVidia 8800gt's SLi, 2.6 Dual core, only 2 gigs of ram.

Runs great on 1650x1080.

:]

1680x105

So many people get it mixed up. :p

Anyway, run a benchmark and post your results. I'm interested to see how well an SLI configuration performs with GTA IV.

On how high settings?

Low/Medium.

I have a 3ghz C2D, 2 gigs ram, 512mb 9600GT and I get less than 25fps even when all settings are on low. Putting settings higher doesn't seem to make much improvement to the graphics though, theyre always quite jagged and fuzzy.

Benchmark is rather useless, it always gives around 10fps more than you get ingame.

    • Samsung is shutting down yet another app used by millions

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      Uhm, that's every business ever, though. It doesn't matter if a bajillion users are using it. As long as it's not making bank, it's probably headed for the graveyard.

      Samsung is the new Google... they don't care if millions of people are using it.
    • Steam Next Fest returns with thousands of new demos to try out

      Still no word on Tides of Annihilation...... so weird that it wasn't shown at the big Game Fest. Guess I'll put it in the bin like Judas and Squadron 42.

      Samsung is shutting down yet another app used by millions by David Uzondu Samsung has announced that it is shutting down Samsung Max, its VPN service used by more than 50 million people, effective today. Samsung Max VPN, if you don't know, was an Android app born on February 23, 2018, out of the ashes of Opera Max, a very popular data-saving VPN that Opera had discontinued the previous year. Samsung bought the discontinued service, rebranded it, and added a native Samsung UI to fit the Galaxy ecosystem. The app could do things like compress images, help you manage background data on a per-app basis, reduce video data consumption, shrink music files, optimize webpages, block advertisement trackers in incognito mode, and encrypt your internet traffic on public Wi-Fi networks. Image via SammyGuru If you open the app now, you'd be greeted by a shutdown banner warning that all VPN, data saving, and privacy services stopped functioning on June 15, 2026. The creators failed to provide a reason for the shutdown, instead publishing a farewell note that read: "Thank you for being with us over the years. Your support and activity truly meant a lot to us and helped shape this app into what it became." This same message appears on the Google Play Store listing for the app as well. Max VPN is the latest service from Samsung to join the list of discontinued applications from the company. Just two months ago, the Korean tech giant announced that it is completely shutting down Samsung Messages, forcing millions of users to migrate to Google Messages by next month. The only devices that the shutdown won't affect are older smartphones running Android 11 or lower. Some of the features of Google Messages that Samsung hopes will entice users include AI-powered scam detection to block suspicious links, integrated Gemini AI tools to generate quick replies, custom chat bubbles, and universal RCS compatibility for sharing high-quality media with iOS users. The platform also offers seamless syncing across tablets and smartwatches. In addition to that, users gain access to message scheduling, smart classification, and automated category sorting.
