Removing bloom as I said (One or two pages back.) involves editing the "visualSettings.dat" file (Notepad works fine.) in the "\Grand Theft Auto IV\common\data\" folder.

However the game must be "patched" to allow modified files which involves a few steps I posted about a few pages back but I'll post the link again.

http://www.gtaforums.com/index.php?showtopic=380102
(I didn't use the .bat file as that would make a copy of each file and instead edited the filelist.txt manually for each entry I wanted to modify.)

Make sure to do a back-up of each file you modify in case patches won't work with modified content or if the game starts acting weird after editing a particular file.

As far as the shaders go I suppose renaming the folders in the "\Grand Theft Auto IV\common\shaders" directory would work but I can't really recommend that method.
(At the very least I wouldn't recommend ATI shaders for NVIDIA cards and so on and I wouldn't use higher-end shaders with lower end cards.)

Yeah the game has a few funny files like that such as "ar_stats.dat" which seems like a remnant from San Andreas as it contains stats and stat progression (Swim for X amount of time to increase or shoot X amount of bullets with this weapon.)

I finished the game on the 360, and don't feel like going through all of the story once again. Can any one here give me a savegame from the final island? Doesn't have to be 100%, just as long as you have started on the third island.

Would be great!


I think I'm pretty close but I only have those sidemissions left for Packie. You need to do them to get there or what?

Or you can, you know, right click the game icon in the games folder and select saved games like most other new games.

lmao...

After shutting off bloom it got seriously better. Im using the gta_magic.bat thingie. Sure it makes shitloads of copies but i couldnt get the loader working.

@JBeckman; what alterations did u do to the filelist.txt to make files working?
Did u just remove the visualsettings.dat file from it or did u do anything else?

Quote:

Audio

-fullspecaudio: Force high-end CPU audio footprint
-minspecaudio: Force low-end CPU audio footprint


Basically a high-quality audio output unless it's used already.



EDIT: For files.txt
(Explained better in the link I posted previously.)

Make a copy of it (Mine is named Files_Mod.txt) and open the original file (Make another copy if needed and use as a backup) and change the last entry (Files.txt) to the name of the copy (In my case Files_Mod.txt)

Let's say you want to edit visualsettings.dat so create a backup of that file (Mine is simply named visualsettings_.dat) and put that entry in Files.txt (Change the "visualsettings.dat" entry to "visualsettings_.dat")

This makes the game read the files but still identify them as correct and load them without the game exiting as a form of protection method.

Finally you need to do a backup of filelist.pak and replace it with a empty file as certain files are cached there so any modifications to exterior files won't apply.
(Also explained better in the link I posted.)
