do you guys know how it's possible to open *.cli files (the movies you save in-game by pressing the F2 key) on windows? For some reason the editor doesn't even show them, even though they are present in the right folder (my documents/rockstar games/gta 4/videos/clips)...

 Spoiler:
 


Im getting this when i try to run the benchmark, it only lasts like 1 or 2 sec and gives me the results, it should run a bench where you see scooters riding around, anybody get the same problem? or know how to resolve it? or even if there is another way runing the benchmark...

why the safemode? runs fine here. ivo got more fps with the "Maximum pre-render frames' to 1" trick

i set my values to medium/high with distance at 20 and it runs fine. maybe not great but at least no textures are missing...

i'm on a laptop: 8600m gt, core 2 duo t8100 (2.1ghz), so you could run it better i think
inside the game i used native resolution of my monitor (1440x***) and everything else low

didn't benchmark, will do it later perhaps

It runs like shit for everyone.



<40 fps on a $1000 CPU Laughing

There's a patch due in another day or two, and new ATi drivers on the 10th. If that doesn't help, I'm exchanging it for L4D.

i just think it is an interesting market strategy as it's the most popular game series.
by letting it run nice on mid-range cards they'd making shitaload cash. gta is so popular that people will buy it despite social club and windows live thingy

but by making it run shit on every component out there is a big fail

Maybe, but I can't see many people shelling out $3000 just to play this at 38 fps on 1280 x 1024.

I think they just rushed to get it out for Christmas. Especially since it's rated 18, they need adults to buy it for kids to play, and Christmas is the best time for that.

eeehhh and on the xbox it runs with locked 30 fps and on the ps3 with 27fps soooo who carez... if it looks fluid and is playable fuck the fps counter

well then i think my problem is the processor: amd 64 x2 4600+ 2,4...

cause i got 2gb and 8800gt... i think the only problem is the processor and thats why the game simply crashes... =(
