Hello everyone i just recently installed my GTA IV and when i installed some mods the game gave me the infinite loading screen glitch. The reason why is probably because the game version is 0.1.0.0 not 1.7.0.0(the picture is my backup file but its like that on all of the files.) So if any one has help i need it !

 

That's not the reason because I run GTA IV perfectly and I have the same version. It is most likely a mod you installed.

Here is a list of mods I installed. 

LCPDFR 0.95 RC2

ELS V8.5 (R-001)

And that's it but I still get the infinite loading screen glitch.

 

Can you post your els.ini?

Also you have to download the latest version of LCPDFR http://www.lcpdfr.com/files/file/4607-lcpd-first-response/

I will test it now.

 

Alright!

I will test it now.

 

​Did it work?

That's the launcher, not the game. You need to check the GTAIV.exe to see its version.

Ok so now the game works, but there is a graphics restriction and the game is in a weird aspect ratio. Any way to fix it ? 

I don't know if you have a high-end PC or a low end PC. If it's a low-end and you can barely play make a txt document named commandline and paste this in it:

-norestriction
-nomemrestrict
-availablevidmem "4.5"
-percentvidmem "100"
-fullspecaudio

After pasting that in it then put the commandline into your Grand Theft Auto IV folder.

If you have a high end pc put this in the commandline:

-availablevidmem 2.0
-percentvidmem 1.0
-norestrictions
-nomemrestrict
-novblank
-noprecache

If that doesn't work I'm all out of ideas, or maybe Cj24 can help you.

I will try the second since i have a Alienware 14.
