~~Hi, could you please post the contents of the following files, preferably on pastebin or something to decrease the size of this page:~~

~~LCPDFR.log - Which should be in your root GTA folder~~

~~ScriptHook.log - ^~~

~~ScriptHookDotNet.log - ^~~

~~Also, navigate to your LCPDFR folder, which should be "Your GTA folder" -> "LCPDFR"~~

~~Then, open the LCPDFR Diagnostics Tool.exe and post the log here.~~

~~Thank you! c:~~

EDIT: I'm sorry, I didn't read your whole post.

Lots of car mods along with the Emergency Lighting System tend to crash the game after a while, nothing you can really do about it than to remove the car mods.

The PC port of GTA IV was poorly made and it is not really stable even without mods.

But ive seen video online of people playing the game for ages with loads of mods. so there must be a way to sort this out. Dou you know what the error means?

Not sure, but I think it's when the game fails to load something, e.g a high-poly modded vehicle and that does something to the memory and crashes the game.

I also have no clue as to how gaming clans do it, I think it depends on your computer...
