use dxvk
yeah when I try that game dosent even open
does ur PC supports vulkan?
nope
you should post a video & your specs.
Try dxwrapper
how do you use that
just paste them on folder location ?
Install Ultimate ASI Loader (already installed in FitGirl repack)
Download dxwrapper, unpack dxwrapper.asi/.ini into GTA IV folder or plugins subfolder
Edit dxwrapper.ini
[Compatibility]
DDrawCompat = 1
ATTENTION: DDrawCompat on multi-core CPU will load 1st core at 100% by default. To load cores evenly the following must be enabled in dxwrapper.ini:
[DDrawCompat]
DDrawCompatNoProcAffinity = 1
Optionally may enable antialiasing here if it is not already enabled in nVidia/AMD driver settings:
[d3d9]
AntiAliasing = 1
thank you
DxWrapper doesn’t work with GFWL.
I asked elishacloud why does DxWrapper not work with GFWL.
This is what she said:
IT does work, it has nothing to do with GFWL, there may be issue dinput8.dll the asiloader, u can try renaming it to circumvent problems, like to dsound.dll or dinput.dll without l
This guide should be a sticky @quartz anvil https://gillian-guide.github.io/optimization/
What about the performance?
Is it better or worse?
@woeful sage
Disco whats can I you do?!!
Have you used DxWrapper with GFWL? If yes, then what FPS did you get during your play though.
my game just doesnt open with dxwrapper
that was before everyone switched to dinput8 tho, i gotta try that again
Can you do that pls?
I can’t do that because my internet is so sh*t I can’t download GTAIV.

why do you not have gta iv in the first place?
you were offering to be a co host in saturday's event and you don't even have the gamr
I had to uninstall it, as I needed space.
Now I regret that decision.
Or wait, do I?
I may have the DVD copy laying around in one of my USBs.
Lemme check.
Don’t worry I didn’t uninstall EFLC.
I kept that.
Stand-alone EFLC is better I guess (?)
DVD copy is generally superior to the downgraded copy however, both are good and bad in their own ways.
DVD copy takes about 30-ish GBs. Whereas dogsh*t CE downgraded to Patch 8 (v1.0.8.0) takes about 22.45 GB.
That is considering it’s standalone and not merged together.
i fail to see how that's a good thing
can you elaborate on the pros of a dvd copy?
Well, for starters it’s much better as it doesn’t have the newest Rockstar Social Club integration even after downgrading.
Press Caps Lock on the keyboard when you’re on the main menu screen.
nothing happened
