Okay, first off, My name is OfficerHymer as depicted in my username. Now, I'm not sure if this is the correct format or forum to place this in, So If I mess up I give full permission to any staff to move this or give me the correct format...

Now to start with my Multiple Problems:

 

Problem A: My computer is What I'd say is Low-End, It's got an I-5 processor and a Intel HD Graphics Card 3000 (I think, And Not sure what others) It can run other games pretty good, low FPS mainly but good (Minecraft, Arma 2, Arma 3 and Emergency 4, Company of heroes) but how ever with Grand Theft Auto IV it crashes like crazy, lags almost always and just in general has tons of problems, If anyone could please tell me what I should put in my Commandline, and my settings as.

 

Problem B: Multiplayer always kicks me out for "Computer is running too slow"... Now, I'm not sure if anyone else gets this, but it's quite annoying. Can't go At most 10 minutes without being kicked out. Which really sucks. Anyhow, If anyone could tell me how to fix that it'd be much appreciated! :) 

 

P.S. Message me on here, Comment on the post, or message/add me on steam @DonGambino3

Thank you & Have a great day -OfficerHymer.

There isn't too much that can be done as far as running the game. What you can do is in game press start and go to options menu and go to Graphics.

Change the ones that affect CPU usage to lower settings. Change shadows to low and water to low. Also changing screen resolution can help.

The mod is a mod and will crash eventually regardless. Even those who have bad ass comps suffer the same fate as those who don't.

Also I use a program that shuts down all other programs that are running while I play. When I first started playing my game was sketchy but with some tweaks it ran great. Good luck

What Tweaks did you do, If I may ask, Also what commandline do you use?

Earlier I tried it again, It was as if my commandline didn't work?... It was confusing. And then when I tried to load the game, it just stopped responding everytime. (And this happened around 5 times, 3 at night, and 2 in the morning) Any solutions?

All I did was change graphic settings and downloaded that one thing that stops unneccesary services. Also make sure no windows are open while ya play. Its called Booster I think

Because of how demanding and poorly written GTA IV has been designed, a discrete graphics card is needed at the bear minimum. A low-end intergreated graphics solution will not suffice.  If your computer is a desktop, and has a large capacity  you can easily add a mid range graphics card.
