FusionFix 4.0 Turns GTA IV on PC Into the Definitive Edition

Man, my favorite GTA by quite a bit with Vice City following. I recently played around the earlier version of the mod and radio stations.

Going to update it and give it another whirl. Rockstar really needs to do a proper remaster here for modern consoles, but I doubt they will bother. And you just know they won't relicense the music.
 
Is there a way to keep the camera centered behind your vehicle while you drive? Having to constantly move the camera with the car while steering is annoying. I forgot that was even part of the control scheme for this game.
 
Been a long time since I played this (close to 20 years now) and I remember enjoying the game a lot, might be time to go back...
 
Gave this a shot and promptly uninstalled and went back to v1.0.4.0 with Zolika patch. My performance is significantly higher there and I don't have to deal with the busted radio station situation. It just works. I was seeing frame drops down into the 80s with a 9950x3D and RTX 5090 from a CPU bottleneck. That was even with DXVK which puts me closer to 180+ fps at all times in the downgraded version.
 
Thanks for the thread. I was gonna try it, but the launcher directs me to an old ass email I haven't used in 10+ years. No clear way of how to update it.
 
Version 4:0 looks nice but it has some regressions compared to the older version i was using, for instance, headlights of cars won't cast Nico's shadow anymore, even when i enable all extra shadow options.

I remember having this problem and found some solution via google. Possibly just this, I am not sure:

Yeah I think this was removed due to it causing bugs/other issues. Will hopefully be back at some point.

takes 2sec in google to look it up, there is a mod and it needs this fusion fix
 
The small things like centered camera when driving is an awesome addition. I never could get used to the default off centered viewpoint.

As for the game, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed coming from the PS2 trilogy to IV, but the world and physics made fo an awesome sandbox, even if everything else was a let down.

Once I'm done replaying the goat Red Dead 1, I'll be installing this again.

Let's go bowling, cousin.
 
That looks great. For a while the 360 through BC was a good way to play due to inconsistent framerates on PC (although the resolution was 720p), but this seems to fix everything and then some.
