This is a good low-poly CVPI (F5544) with both wrap around and normal (or no) ram bar. All types show up in game if you use the +livery in the vehilcle.ide file. Great low-poly car that will not bug out your textures or cause the taxi bug. F5544 has a bunch of 'em on his download link...I use many of them (thanks F5544!). Good day, DrDetroit

Cruise control is available also. I have it, works great. Good day, DrDetroit

What's TTT? Good day, DrDetroit
-
Why? Good day, DrDetroit

DITTO! That looks like a very nice car Beckugan...please share, if so inclined. Good day, DrDetroit

I use RTCv4 (Real Time Cycle) instead of real ENB. RTC looks great, you get a nice weather/time cycle and almost no FPS hits. You can get it at GTA4-mods.com. Most ENB's are a little heavy for my specs, so I see FPS loss with most ENBs. Good luck buddy, hope you get it smoothed out. I have mine just right (finally, after many months of tweaking)...so now I can kick back and enjoy. Good day, DrDetroit

Funny you mention Scotland. Actually, would like to check out Jimmy Page's old Boleskine House in Scotland (off Loch Ness no less). Use to be Alister Crowleys home...if I have time I'm gonna check it out. NOTE: Sorry about the thread derail. Good day, DrDetroit

Try using 2.1 and see if that helps. For me 2.2 was unplayable and 2.3 has fixed my game freezing issue, for the most part. First freeze was last game play, but was like 2.5-3 hours into it. Was a good time to quit. Good day, DrDetroit

Cool. Was just wondering. Thanks for your service too!! Good day, DrDetroit I love the French! Was just wondering if he was from France, after all don't all you guys wear Berets over there? (just kidding...just kidding...). I'll be heading to Normandy, Cherbourg, Paris (or course), ect., in about 6-months (England, Belgium, Germany and Amsterdam too...can't frickin wait! Good day, DrDetroit

Are you French by chance? Good day, DrDetroit
-
Are you using Braveheart 2.2 or 2.3? Good day, DrDetroit

Yea, those Caprices were pretty bad lol. Ugly as hell and probably performance to match the looks. Don't see any mods for 'em either, not that I'd use one. Good day, DrDetroit

I don't like front wheel drive. The steering is effected big time by the torque of the front wheels and not in a good way...sucks for performance driving. Plus the front wheels are set too far back on the chassis for my taste. I have both types and a AWD as well....my Audi A4 (06) with Quattro is the best handling vehicle I have ever owned...and I've owned all kinds; Land Rover, Mercedes, Audi, Lincoln, Caddys, Corvette, Mustang..ect. Good day, DrDetroit

CVPI for sure. I can't stand the Impala...ugly and small, plus front wheel drive. Good day, DrDetroit
-
Cool...thanks. Good day, DrDetroit

Anytime. Post up if it worked for ya. One more thing I like about Traffic Load is that you can crank the peds 200%, without increasing the number of spawned cars. It really jams up the sidewalk with peds...just like NYC, without the FPS hit. At the stop lights you'll see 20+ peds waiting to cross the street...especially in Times Square (The Triangle in game I believe). Good day, DrDetroit

Cool. I'll have to take a look. Good day, DrDetroit

Never seen it before...any good? Good day, DrDetroit

Thought I had seen one in a recent vid. I could be wrong and/or it could be a beta or personal mod of some sort. I've been looking for one as well. Good day, DrDetroit

I had the same problem, many here have and still do. With that said there is a couple of things you can Try: Do not mod police, police2, police3 or police4 with a high poly ELS cars. Only use low-poly (under 1meg +/- EFT file) and no ELS. Only use high poly ELS cars in the nStockade, pStockade slots. Although I have my noose modded with a mid-poly ELS car as they don't spwn that often. I have no issue with texture pop modding the Noose slot. Use Traffic Load for the tax bug. If that is bugging out your textures use Chikamaru (SP?) traffic fix. Chickamaru's fix is excellent as there is no texture loss at all and you will see all the vehicles. I like these two much better than the other tax fixes because the AI cars will not spawn on top of you and you'll not see traffic jams on the beach or in alleys, unlike TrafficFlow, which you'll only see 20-cars (not to be confused with TrafficLoad, which is what I use.). I'll try to find the link for both. Use MemTurbo4 or CacheBoost to cure the memory leaks inherent with GTAIV. MemTurbo is what I use to great effect. I keep traffic density down under 20, using in-game settings. I keep draw distance and detail under 30, although you can play with this and the previous setting to you liking. The above has removed the taxi bug, no texture poppling any longer and smooth game play with a nice mix of cars. By tweaking your setup a bit and managing your modded content, you should be able to kill the texture popping. Good luck, DrDetroit

Neat litte vid. Love it! Good day, DrDetroit

Even the low/moderate ENBs are pretty heavy for low-mid end computers. I would get rid of the ENB and see if the game works without it. If it does, you know that you can't run that ENB. I have a pretty decent computer and I have issues with every ENB except RTCv4 (Real Time Cycle), which isn't really an ENB but looks pretty damn good and no hit to the system. Good luck. DrDetroit
