    The instructions are so damn complex..... Would it be possible to make an autorun or installer?

      Hi, is not that complicated

      here's a brief

      Compatibility;

      * i recommend  putting this commands in your gta iv
      -availablevidmem 4096 (Depends On your GPU) 
      -fullspecaudio -forcehighqualitymirrors -nomemrestrict  -norestrictions -forcer2vb -fullspecaudio -frameLimit 1

      for Steam version, open the proprieties and put the commands in startup
      for Rockstar games launcher version  you can put through the rockstar launcher settings then clicking on the game
      For Non-Launcher Version
      The commandline is suposed to work with no problems, but if you have some problems, you will need to put the commands in the game shortcut
      Right click the shortcut, go to properties and copy this in to the end of the target area
      like what shows in steam version

      If you have a high end pc, probably gta iv with dxvk mod will surpass the 160fps, in this frame targe the Rage Engine are not that stable, so i recommend you to use this program, you can cap the frame rate with him, i recommend something between 60-120fps (you can go higher, but the closer to 155fps, the more likely stuttering MAYBE occur) Rivatuner Statistics(DOWNLOAD)

    Hi, GTA with DXVK doesn't work for me
    It crashes at launch after a black screen in windowed mode and without DXVK the game launches fine, but loses all its framerate stability
    I don't know if it's linked to the nvidia driver, to vulkan...

    I've done a clean reinstall of the game, reinstalled the nvidia driver, tried old versions of dxvk, nothing helped
    I don't know if the dxvk log could give any info, I can give it if needed

    The game ran very well with DXVK on my old PC so that's surprising, I tried several tweaks.

    UPDATE : the problem is the latest nvidia driver, I downgraded to a february driver and the game works perfectly with dxvk now, this may be useful if you have this problem with the same specs as mine: 5700X3D/5070Ti

    Does this fix textures loading really slowly?

    Does it work for version 1.2. 0.59?? I've been trying to get it to work for hours and there's no way. I don't know exactly what I'm doing wrong. The description is a bit confusing, but I've tried to follow all the steps, but there's no way. In my case, I have a 3080 GPU and a 4K 144 Hz monitor. thanks

    Tried installing this 3 times in the span of 4 years where I upgraded my hardware from a 4c/8t cpu to a 8c/16t cpu just to go above 60 fps, and regardless of my system specs it always makes my game have lag spikes but it lets it go above 60fps and never hits 120.

    Capping frame rate to 120FPS solves all stuttering issues on my rig.
