icenhancer uses FXAA thats why if you enable normal AA in the config it goes blury with them both on.

Some random pics from yesterday:
Running with better city textures as well. I can't run AA without the image looking extremely blurry, and I have to turn the draw distance way down if I want it to be remotely smooth (hence the "fog" in the second pic), but it looks great.
I just need to get cars working properly again and I'll be happy.

Vanburen you are a screenshot wizard.
You should post your last screenshot from the screenshot thread here (the night one).
That one is basically gt5 photomode 2.0 in playable form.

Same area as my previous screen, but it showcases the nighttime lighting.
At the very least, ensure that any screen monitoring software like msi afterburner or evga precision is disabled.The English Conquistador said:So I've reinstalled GTA IV, put the files in the correct place and it doesn't work.Every time I run the game, the screen goes black, then says "GTA IV has stopped working"? I don't know what's wrong. Anyone had this problem but fixed it?

Thanks!
Edit: Got it working. Nvm!

Don't bother. If this game is important to you with these mods, upgrade to an Nvidia card. 560Ti or better would be great. This game does not play well with AMD drivers. At least, not with the 1.0.4.0 version.bigjimmystyle said:
after a million reinstalls (where my GTA wouldn't work with the mods), this is how my GTA4 looks like. only issue is that it always crashes when i go to the missions. time for ANOTHER reinstall. :\
all settings at high, MLAA. perfectly playable! feels smoother than the PS3 version for example.
dpeasent's config looks nicer though. i want the motion blur in ICEnhance!
I think I may have finally put one mod too many into GTA4. The main menu wouldn't load (complaining about flash), and hitting "play" (well, pressing "enter" on the keyboard because no play button was actually appearing) caused the game to crash once it tried to load a new game.
Thankfully I make backups of most of my games. Time for attempt number 2.

1.0.4 using xliveless and launching with LaunchGTAIV.exe

I am getting all the problems in the world making it work properly. First of all, texts are missing in the menus, so I can't navigate through them unless I learn them by heart. Next is the camera which gets fucking drunk (literally) as soon as the first apartment scene plays. The effect is permanent in that it will never stops. Ever. The more you move with Nico afterwards, the more the effect is pronounced. It makes the game unplayable.
I have the steam version so I have to use that tricky workaround posted moments ago. I guess I'll just re-install the game and try with a fresh start. From the little I've seen, it's worth it. I haven't noticed a drop in performance before and after.

Does anyone know what skylighting does exactly? I think it affects my fps a little bit, but I swear in game I can barely tell what's its doing differently. :/

It's the reason I never bought a copy on pc (already bought one for xbox when I bought it for my brother).

I understand but for the price I've paid, I cannot really complain. Plus, once figured out, I will get to enjoy this with an incredibly photo realistic mod.

Yeah, mine are on a 570 gtx.
Looks like you didn't download that Xliveless file.

I'll have to try that too.
RS4- said:
So I try that and then I get the main GTA IV screen with a Rockstar Social Club update window that I can cycle through, but can't do anything with. I don't see menu options along the top/sides like I used to. If I hit enter, it loads my game but when I hit esc to go the main menu, there are no options.

Anyone else having luck running this the Steam version?
I'd like to buy it at the sale price, but not if it's incompatible with this mod.

Just tried it out with my Steam version.
GTX 260
i7 920
4 gig ram
Ran in the 15 - 30s. The menus were completely screwed up and shadows on other islands were wonky looking. Also had a weird lens flare thing while driving at night. I probably screwed a thing or two up with installing(if you know of either problem and the fix let me know) but the lighting looks amazing.

on 1.0.4.0, YES it will run poorly.zaidr said:
my i7 + 6950 = 20-30fps. usually below 30fps and ocassionally dipping into the teens.
Meanwhile, the most current version (1.0.7.0) runs at 50-70fps...but is not expected to be as compatible with iCEnhancer as 1.0.4.0.
To take full advantage of this mod for this specific game, Nvidia owners will have by far the best experience.
unfortunately, no. it will run, but the framerate will most likely be below your standards. If you already own the game, certainly try it. and if you want to buy because of the price now and hope that the upcoming version of the mod will make life enjoyable for AMD users, you can do that too.-GOUKI- said:
But based on 1.0.4.0 results, AMD/ATi owners will not have as much fun. Again, the 1.0.7.0 release is where our hopes rest. It's very disappointing, as this is one of the only games I've ever seen that has such a performance discrepancy between 2 similar but competing products. Equivalent Nvidia cards are enjoying 70%-90% better performance than AMD cards.

Doesn't look nearly as good in motion, but still looks great.
