Hey, I've been trying for a while to fix this now but it's absolutely beyond me. I've had GTA:IV for a long time and put up with this issue but I'm quite sick of it now. My computer I believe ABSOLUTELY should run GTA:IV Here's a few reasons why.
My PC Definitely surpasses the Recommended specs for the game,
The Game istself once auto configured puts everything on HIGH with minimal memory usage.
The Issue:
don't get me wrong the game runs, the issue is that I have 10-15 Fps whereever I go and it drops to 6-8 Fps at night time or around headlights. This is when played on medium graphics, with no shadows, no reflections, low water, and next to none view and detail distance. If i even try to put the game on low graphics the game absolutely does not work at all, it will not get past the safehouse door.
My Specs:
Nvidia GT620 1GB
Intel I3-3220 3.30Ghz
x64 Windows 8
6GB RAM
(And just incase it's needed, a 1920x1080 monitor)
So those of you that are wizards and mages of a technology orientation please try and suss this out!
Cheers,
