Hello. I just bought a new gaming PC not to long ago and I've been having problems with some mods. I put my mods in one by one (LCPDFR-Els-sparkiv). I drove around for a little and nothing happened. When I installed a modded police car, I get to press play and it crashes. the error says "ran out of video memory, reboot system". I do not know what to do anymore  . Is there a file or something I'm missing? I really want to play GTA but I can't, Can someone please help me!!!

 

PC Specs:

Intel i7-3770K 3.50GHz

8 GB Ripjaws X

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 3 GB

800w Power Supply

2TB HDD

Win8

 

Please try one of the following command lines:

-memrestrict 629145600
(for high textures)

-memrestrict 314572800
(for medium) 

-memrestrict 209715200
(for low)

 

Next time just make one topic 

Use a different mod.  Happens to me sometimes due to the mods incompatibility with something (scripts, other mods...who knows!).  I just plug in a different car mod (one that I know works) and all is well in the world again.

 

Good day,

I am just using LCPDFR 0.95, Els v5, and Spark IV. It crashes when install cars to the game. It worked for 10 mins then I went to install more cars and it joins the game and crashes,saying "ran out of video memory".

Can it be that the cars are not ELS v5 compatible?

You create a new Notepad file (txt) and paste one of those command lines into the text file (Depends on your choice of setting). After that, you go to File>SaveAs>GTAIV Main Directory>Save as filename "commandline". (Without the quotes.)

All ELS Enabled vehicles should be able to work with both ELS v5 and ELS v6.

Ok so I will try that command line thing. I f you huys have anything else that would help, much appreciated.

Cannot find this file.

Yes, for my setup it was a problem with some car mods.  Something with the ELS and various car mods (ELS too) would crash my game.  I had the same issue you are having using ELS (V5) and a few of the police car mods.

 

After trying four ELS models, I kept getting "Out of Memory Error" so I reverted back to the stealth Suburban (Nice ELS version) I have been using without issue.  Reverting back to that vehicle I knew worked solved the problem for me.  No idea why the others would not work, but they all kept crashing my game soon as I turned on the lights (ELS) or when I would try to get out of the vehicle...boom, instant crash.  I could drive around OK, but when I tried to do an action It crashed.  Many many other models I use work just fine though.

 

The commandline stuff may or may not work, I find that it mostly just slows my system down and limits it more than it fixes anything, but I bet if you try a few other cars, you'll find something you like and will not crash your system.  The commandline stuff..blahhh, again, just seemed to slow my machine down and never fixed any of the texture fade/pop I was experiencing.  The only thing that finally worked for my texture fade etc (after trying everything including commandline.txt) was to only use high poly mods and ELS on cars that don't spawn all the time (like polpat, Noose, police2 ect).  That is what fixed every issue I had experienced, including texture fade/pop, crashes, slowdowns and disappearing policemen.

 

Good luck,  The LCPDFR mod is fantastic!  

 

Good day,
