Create a commandline.txt file (if you have one already skip this step)

#

Open the file

#

Then type in “-availablevidmem (however megabytes of vram you have on your gpu)”

#

So for example

#

-availablevidmem 12288

Create it where the game is (GTAIV.exe) also sorry for late reply

#

For example where ZolikaPatch.asi is

#

It should be in a folder called GTAIV

karmic dove
#

hopefully i did that right

viscid cairn
#

That’s the same place you open your game correct?

#

If it is then right click the black area

#

basically the empty space to the right of your files

#

then press new and then text file

#

and name it "commandline.txt"

#

dont include the .txt part

#

when i click new, there is no text file option, only text document. same thing?

viscid cairn
#

yup same thing

karmic dove
#

viscid cairn
#

#

#

karmic dove
#

my gpu has 16 gb of vram unless i have to be specific then idk exactly how much

viscid cairn
#

here ill show you how to find it

#

go to the settings app

#

then press system (it should be on the left sidebar)

#

then display

#

then advanced display

#

then display adaptor properties for whatever display you have

#

karmic dove
#

dedicated video memory?

viscid cairn
#

#

#

"-availablevidmem number"

#

in the text document

karmic dove
viscid cairn
