I just timed myself playing LCPDFR and I got to 36 minutes and 13 seconds until the game crashed.

I do have many car mods including two high poly mods from Yakadafi (The only LAPD/CHP charger that I've seen with proper California steady burn red). And I'll use Alt-F11 to get the good callouts!

What's the avg time for you guys?

Note: My specs are in my signature.

None. Because I don't use the high-poly shitmobiles (I'll quote the person who said it if they can remind me).

I used to, but I prefer high FPS over a licensed car that doesn't fit into GTA unless you have a car pack

That quote is from everybody's favourite bumboy Sam.

Remove your car mods and els, and the crashes will disappear, even using non-els high poly car mods will make the game crash.

I don't crash either, i have 1 car mod installed into the "FBI" slot.

I can play over an hour easy, but thats because over time I have learnt what my system and the game are capable of dealing with.

I have els enabled cars in FBI, police 2, Firetruck, Ambulance. I then have non els cars in nearly all the other police / noose slots.

If I put ELS cars in Noose or police1 I get crashes often. No system is the same. That's why you mod one car slot at a time and see how it runs.

Don't understand me incorrectly, I'm not complaining about the crashes. If I can get 30 minutes of play before one that's fine, I was just curious what others were getting.

I have my GTA graphics settings jacked almost all the way up and see frame rates in the mid 50s (but the high 40s do pop up).

I installed a GTX 580 into my new gaming desktop and am able to play GTA IV with all high settings with a frame rate of somewhere between 40-50 FPS. I installed an ultimate vehicle pack with weapons and sirens, and I get no crashes from that whatsoever. If I have ELS, though, I can barely get through 20 minutes of play before it crashes, but without it I can play for an hour or two, easily. I have every single car modded, plus I'm thinking of getting ENBseries, which will make my game look amazing. The only problems I have are when LCPDFR's scripts fuck up or when I have to deal with the environment occasionally disappearing for 4-5 seconds, which, thanks to my amazing graphics card, get fixed almost instantaneously. I used to play GTA IV on a quad-core laptop with a 512mb graphics card, and even low-poly modded cars would fuck up the environment loading. I'm glad I bought this thing.

I'm bad with the police cars being moded, but I still rarely crash. When I use fraps I get some slow downs, but still no crash. Guess I've been lucky.

I never crash with all the high poly cars you could get me +els.

I usually can play until I am bored. Sometimes a few minutes to hours. I have ELS cars in FBI, Police, police 2. The rest of my stuff is stock. All I can say is I rather play with ELS + Modded Cars + LCPDFR and get crashes than play with crappy cars, no realistic lighting, and no police mod.

The average That I am running Gta Iv is about 40 to 59, but it get around 36 to 40 when I am chasing someone. I actually change every cars, helicopters and police cars in the game, except for bikes and the boats. I have two video card, a gtx 570 that handle everything but I have my old gtx 460 for phyx,which I think he 460 barely help me, It felt like the 570 is doing all the work. The main thing is that you could have a Beast computer but they can barely run the game on all high, because you have to learn how to tweak or lie to your system in order to run Gta Iv without no problem. In order to do so you have to use commandline, they have this new software exactly for Gta Iv or EFLC that could clean your register, window explorer cff or something like that allow your game to use more than 2gb of ram. Everyone don't have the same system so you have to find your system weak spot for Gta Iv. There are many tweaks out there, just be careful with which one you use.

For me, I could run everything on max except for shadow which kills a lot of fps, with 1.0.7.0, mix enb settings, els v6, all cars mods but to my preferences, all cops cars with els, lcpdfr, dashcam and traffic control mod. I could play from 1 to 2 hours without no crashes. I also use software like MSI afterburne, h50 to h100 water cooling which is easy to install. You need to know your system and all the fixes or shortcut and the tweaking you could use to get a good average fps.

Since the only mod I have installed besides LCPDFR is SNT on EFLC, I don't crash fully often (screen freeze). On the other hand, occasionally, after 30-40 minutes of playing, I will lose access to most police commands (pullover, arrest, search, etc.), and lose acces to police stations, which compels me to reload a save. I don't think that counts as a crash, though.

I can never get the damn thing to work sooo...

Anyone here with one of those extremely high-end PC's wanna trade? hehe

Anyway, I have police, police2, fbi, noose, and polpatriot modded, with the last three being ELS-enabled. I also have SNT, TrafficControl, Indicator, and Dashcam installed. Usually I can play until I decide to quit and do something else, though I sometimes crash if I decide to use SNT to put God mode on and unlimited ammo, and go on a rampage with a motorcycle .

I don't crash at all.

I use a player skin and one ELS Police2 skin. I don't crash very often. If I add more than that though, it tends to be a pain. Most of the problems I have tend to stem from ELS, but I can live with it.

Not true. It might help on some computers, but I think it still has more to due with vram. Iv noticed that the further away you are from using all your available vram, the smoother the game runs and the less buggy it is. So like me for example, in GTA it says 303MB (somtimes 280MB) available, so I set it so the game only uses about 250MB and for the most part it will keep it from doing the ever famous no textures problem.

I actually have not had GTA crash in a while and Im using a full car pack that even has more cars than the game came with.

I get an average of 70FPS using low-medium settings. Medium textures, 1280x1024 with mostly everything else low and a 20 draw distance with 100 cars and 100 detail distance.

I think you may have a problem. I ran the benchmark with max settings at 1280x1024 and got an average of 28FPS with my 5 year old G80 8800GTS 320MB. Granted it crashes when I actually try to play the game maxxed, but it still ran the benchmark fine. If I actually had 1.2GB of vram on my card, Im sure I could play it just fine at max settings.

The main question I have for you is " are you using ENB Settings? I can't play without my ENB settings which make LCPFR even more fun and realistic, but If I take it off it's great to get max FPS but I want better quality and great FPS...

5-10 minutes.Heavily modded GTA,with almost all cars replaced.Civilian cars all low poly except one.Police1 and Police2 slots not modified.

But thats for your question regarding LCPD:FR.

Practically,never.Or rarely.If it has to occur,it will after half an hour or so.But doesn't bother me much.This is the case when I'm not the officer myself.Instead I play the role of a lunatic bombing around town.
