Since the update to the 1.0c hotfix, my game begins to drop frames severely (about 3-7fps) for about 5-10 seconds before coming back to its default (around 30fps) for a minute or two before the cycle begins again. It does not happen at all when LCPDFR is not active, and after I shut down the game I get an error message saying either:

GTA IV has run out of memory

or

GTA IV: Unrecoverable Fault

This has only happened with 1.0c, no previous versions, and the only other mod I have installed is the GTA IV Simple Native Trainer. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated!

What is your specs? More information would be useful.

If your game is throwing errors after you exit the game and not during, then you have nothing to worry about. It happens to a lot of people, myself included.

As for the FPS loss, try adding a command line.

And even if you have a good computer, try downloading Razer Game Booster. Reallllly helps. It stops any process from running that doesn't need to be and really bumps performance up.

Hope that helps :)

Intel Core i3 processor

Intel HD 3000 integrated graphics

6.00GB RAM

1TB Hard Drive

64 bit OS

 

Nothing special, just a basic laptop.   The game itself lags when I run at a high resolution (1360 x 768) so I run it smaller at 1280 x 720 and I'll get a solid 30fps out of it. The ONLY lag is when LCPDFR is active, not at any other time.

I'm not too concerned about the errors since they're appearing after I exit, they're just more of a nuisance than anything.

I already have a command line in place to remove a significant amount of lag that I was previously receiving. And currently the lag is ONLY when LCPDFR is active, not at any other time.

As for the Razer Game Booster, I shall check that out and see if there is any noticeable improvement. (Side question, does the Game Booster work for other games as well?)

Thanks a million for the advice.  =)

It'l work for any game you play on your computer, even Steam games.

All you have to do is hit the '+' button on the Game Booster screen, then select Add Game, and search for the Executable in the game folder your game is installed to. So for example if you wanted to boost GTA IV, hit add game, go to rockstar games folder, open GTA IV folder and go to bottom and select it. Now any time you start GTA IV, itl boost it automatically, and when you exit, it will set your computer to normal again.

 

PROBLEM HAS BEEN SOLVED.

Turns out the lag was due to a hardware malfunction, I opened my computer and gave it a cleaning and fixed it. Since then, LCPDFR and everything else have been running much more smoothly.

Thank you to everyone who took the time to reply with any advice they had, it was very much appreciated!   =D
