Did you upgrade your display drivers as well as DirectX runtimes? You might also try on deleting the gta_vc.set file.

Personally I don't feel like engaging in a verbal fight with Ray; he may insist on his opinions about which card is the best, but then again what matters is that Llama is satisfied about it.

The Stereo Mix option may have been hidden or disabled. I'll try looking on it in a jiffy.

Have you tried on using the stripped SA SCM file?

One word: reinstall. I'm very very sorry to tell you this, but if you downloaded the game illegally then we won't provide you with any help whatsoever.

As what the title says, I need some help in converting my vehicle; I know it has something to do with pivot positions, but it seems as though the vehicle spawns backwards even though the dummies are positioned in the right way. Oh, and here's an IRL pic of the vehicle in question, which is a Tatra 603: I wanted to drive it in SA so badly, so I took matters into my own hands and decided to convert one. Any ideas on this?

Finally, I'm now a twenty-something!

Nice one you got there dude; I hope you guys will whip up a 1960 Imperial Crown for IV.

I'm sorry to say but we do not in any way provide support for pirated/ripped/warez versions of GTA games. You have no other choice but to buy the game like everyone else. I know not all people can afford a legit copy of it, but that's the sad part of life that you should accept.

Try enabling Compatibility mode, or see if your problem is listed here: http://www.gtaforums.com/index.php?showtopic=188753 I also have problems running the game on Windows 7 myself; it's been months yet I still can't start that bloody game.

So far the only female ped mods that I know are for GTASA, although I'm thinking of converting my Violet Baudelaire ped to GTA3.

Thanks. I'm planning for a similar setup, but I'm afraid I don't have that much resources for buying one.

Don't expect any GTA game to work on a PSP emu yet, as it is pretty much under early development; either live with it or get a job and gather some cash on a real console.

I don't mean to copy-pasta computer specs from someone else's rig, but you might take a look at the one in this thread (more specifically the last post): http://strawberryforum.site88.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=265&start=10 Seems more than capable of running GTA IV, with two SLI'd GTX260s and a Phenom X2.

I do have some gripes about GTA, frankly speaking, but I don't think that just because you can't finish the mission means that you have an excuse to whine like a Hannah Montana fangirl. I suck at missions too, but that doesn't keep me from enjoying it.

Hmm, I admit, I never got to finish my Tower of Terror mod as planned, but since I was bored recently I decided to make a model of the hood where Violet, Klaus and Sunny Baudelaire once lived. There are only a few reference pics that I found throughout the Lemony Snicket series, and the only good one was a certain playing card from the Catasthropic Card Game that had a drawing of the razed mansion. Some shooped 3DS renders: Here's the mansion in Sketchup; I'm still working on the COL and LODs though: I dunno when will I whip up a proper interior for this, but that's what I did for now. God Bless, and with all due respect...

After seeing repeat threads from Chinese spambots doing epic fail attempts at advertising their crappy software, I was thinking if it would be possible to block a thread from being posted if it contained a certain keyword, i.e. "Aiseesoft" (the developer behind the offending software), or block a yet-to-be-posted thread if the image URL came from a blacklist, much like when I tried to post a JPEG from Ebaumsworld. I know the spammers can get around this, but judging from the fact that the "How to convert Blu-Ray to blah blah blah" threads are identical in nature and seem to link back to a single source (the images mostly came from a single site), keeping them from posting via a blacklist may curb future attempts.

I once tried running GTAVC under Cider. It doesn't work properly on my case, although I'm certain that there are some who managed to pull off such a thing on their Mac. For now the only other option seems to be running it on Windows via Boot Camp.

Well, I know some draw distance hacks, but I'm not so sure about LOD enhancements.

It looks nice. Just a little more tweaking and it'll be fine.
