^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.

      As long as Manifest v2 extensions keep working. I always enable compact mode from about:config. I hope I won't have to switch to LibreWolf or WaterFox anytime soon.
    • Threads scales past half a billion users, brings deeper community and feed controls

      By Fiza Ali · Posted

      Threads scales past half a billion users, brings deeper community and feed controls by Fiza Ali Meta has announced Threads crossing a major milestone of 500 million monthly active users. And, at the heart of this growth sits something simple: communities. From books to basketball, parenting to music, Threads says its rise has been powered by people clustering around shared interests and, in turn, giving the platform its identity. In response, the platform is expanding its Communities feature beyond beta and introducing a set of new tools designed to make participation easier and more engaging. A redesigned Communities Hub will now appear in the main navigation menu, allowing users to jump between groups without leaving their feed. Each community will also receive a distinct Community Icon, giving them clearer visual identity and making them easier to recognise across the platform. Then there’s Community Progress, which is a kind of live gauge showing how close a topic is to becoming a full-fledged community, alongside guidance on how users can contribute to its development. In addition, Meta is also expanding its Community Champions programme, recognising more users who actively contribute to community engagement. And then things go more local; Local Communities is already available in 100 countries, including North America, South America, Asia, and Europe but are now rolling out with native-language tags starting in Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. The platform is also expanding Live Chats to more communities in the coming weeks, adding features such as co-hosting and the ability to quote moments directly into users’ feeds. Beyond communities, Meta is tightening the loop between users and their feeds. Earlier this year came "Dear Algo," a feature that lets people tell Threads what they want more or less of. Now it’s being paired with a new tool, "Your Algo." It allows people to adjust how frequently certain topics appear, with options lasting one, three, or seven days. Meta says these preferences remain private and can be managed alongside “Dear Algo” in a unified settings hub. The rollout begins in the US, Canada, UK, Australia, and New Zealand. Finally, the company says these changes are part of an ongoing effort to refine Threads based on user feedback and that further updates will continue as the platform evolves.
