Just requested to be added to NeoGang PC. Name for the social club is the same as here.
My friend had everything turned on to the fullest and he was getting 30fps in city and in the 20s outside of the city. He turned off AA and is now getting 45-60 fps in city and 30-40 fps outside. What else could he turn down to improve framerate that wouldn't drastically reduce the visuals?

Have you tried the different modes? I had to change from Raw input to Directinput to get smooth mouse movements.

VSync on/off? Windowed/Borderless/Fullscreen? what sort of framerate are you getting normally, and is it consistent? Do you have RAW set in the mouse settings?
The four settings in Advanced section all make a large hit on framerate
Recommend all those off
From what I've read, drop shadows to high and view distance to ~50%. Massive framerate boost and no particularly noticeable visual differences.

RAW mouse fixed it! Thanks guys!
That does look pretty crazy. GTA is one game I would really want that in, the more you can see the better.

Maybe not quite trailer level, but it varies a lot. Sometimes there's less sometimes there's more.

Another stupid question I can't figure out for the life of me.
How do you swim up/down?
Found it: Shift makes you swim, W goes down and S goes up.

Hey. Yeah i tried on different saves and with a Strangers mission in between as well. but i found a solution for me. fail the mission 3 times and you can skip it. (running away from the car)
But thx anyway. took me 2 days to figure that out.
Woot, after 7 hours of customizing the settings to get some decent FPS on my laptop, benchmarking and getting constant crashes (and prolly another 7 hours of trying to fix the crashes), I finally got it to work. \o/
Played 2 hours straight without getting a crash, so I guess it's all fine now. It really is a fun game though. Only wish there was a no police cheat, so I can mess around in the city once in a while without getting chased or punished for it. U guys think people will make this possible in the future? The city is way too big to not mess around in it. :d

There is, try Director mode on the pause menu. You can set the weather, invencibility, time of the day, disable police, etc and just play like you want.
GTA5 story too forced compared to the last games? Less exploration? Did you know you can explore the entire map pretty much as soon as you've finished the prologue (30 mins max) in GTA5? Do you not remember being forced to progress in the story to unlock new locations in the previous GTA games? Including those last two you mentioned? Remember not being able to swim in Vice City? In GTA5 you can swim.. you can pilot a submarine and explore the sea.
Less RPG like? GTA5 brought the return of character stats to progress on something Vice City nor GTA4 had (San Andreas did).
In GTA5 you can buy businesses, you can buy vehicles, you can buy garages to store those cars in, you receive profits from your business and other perks, you do missions for your businesses to help them. There are lots of hobbies/past times, a good amount of strangers/freaks missions, about 60 random events. GTA5 has the most vehicles of all the GTA games.
GTA4 and Vice city aren't even comparable to the amount of exploration and non-story stuff you can do in GTA5. Outside of the repeatable emergency services/taxi missions, there isn't much you can hold over GTA5 especially from Vice City and GTA4.
It's cool if you don't like it, but your criticisms are so vague and don't really make sense to me given the facts we have.
Nope. Feel free to do them in any order you like, they'll still be there even after completing the story.
A mixture of High and Very High, for sure, depending how much antialiasing you want.

Playing through this game for the third time and it's still amazing. Just sad that I didn't have this version for my first pt. Some of you guys are very patient and now it pays off.
Awesome. Thanks. Will take my time with them then.

How do I enter the R* Video Editor menu to string my clips together?
Doesn't dropping shadows from very high get rid of Dynamic Shadows? I'd look elsewhere for FPS gains if possible
Far right in the menu
Is there any easier way of taking rockstar editor photos style photos without having to save a clip and go into rockstar editor? That takes forever.

First time I launched the game, it seemed to work pretty well. Next time I launched the game, it just gets stuck on loading story... forever. I've done some searches and it seems like I am not the only one with this problem, and the solutions people have posted are not seemingly making a difference. It seems like social club loads up fine and I am logged in. Yet it never makes it past the loading screen, which just has that slide show go off indefinitely. Also the first time I launched the game loading times were normal.

Grass down to very high, ultra is really demanding when there's a lot of grass on the screen.
I actually like the perspective you, I, and others have going into it for the third time. It was nice to see the evolution, each step of the way. And now on PC, I'm still noticing all sorts of details that I missed on my first two plays (or ones that are completely new to PC), and it's making me appreciate the game all that much more.
That said, experiencing it for the first time like this must sublime.
Shadows and Ambient Occlusion are big ones, too, as always.
Once again reminded why I get annoyed with Best Buy. Picked up the physical copy of the game after work today. More then I wanted to pay but at least I don't have to download close to 60GB. I might even be able to play tonight as well. However it wasn't on the shelf but in the back. So had to wait for them to find it. At least I finally have something to test out this new dvd drive.
is there a way to change the folder for this?
my game is installed on a separate hard drive from my music

Use a shortcut for your music. It'll feed it through there.

It is. I've just been utterly blown away with it. As a product of art, technology and design, the game is an absolute marvel - the visuals, the sound, the music, the missions, the city, the detail, the writing, the characters, the tried and tested gameplay mechanics - everything is just so well thought out and well integrated.
Just a great video game.

The difference between this and the PS4 version is quite significant. I thought it looked great on PS4 but this is amazing.

Anyone managed to move the default gta 5 folder to another location once installed? (social club version)

Ultra Grass at least for me seems the big culprit in dragging down the frame rate. I am running a I7-3930k OC to 4.8, 2xGTX Titan X, 16 Gig of Ram and playing at 4k. When having everything set to max, except MSAA that is set to off and FXAA On, it can drop to about mid 40's when there is a lot of grass areas. Changing the setting to Very High from Ultra on the Grass and FPS jumps back up, now it rarely if ever hits 55fps, perhaps once it hit 52 fps, but pretty rock solid 60fps now with just that one change.
Frankly, going back and forth, I really don't see that much of a drastic change that Ultra Grass vs. Very High Grass. On a still screen it looks a little fuller, but you really only notice that looking at screen shot side by side, as you game, I don't see that much of a difference.
Again, for me it only drops FPS when out in the country where a lot of grass exist when having it set to Ultra, so I figured the change to Very High was worth it have a sustained FPS even in the country side. It is quite breath tacking at night time in the city and it not flinch regardless of the traffic density, especially when flying down a freeway in a sports car! Impressive stuff!

I tried and it would not work. Ended up re-downloading the game. I just installed a 1TB SSD that runs faster than my old Samsung 840 512gb SSD's, so I wanted the game on the new Samsung to help with streaming etc., but when I tried moving it would not load the game. I get the small splash screen then it closes. Only fix was to re-download. I did the re-download late last night and took it down in less than an hour. Got lucky the servers were not being hit hard at that time (about 1am PST).
Got a question about the story to anyone who's played super far, beaten it, or double dipped.
I just want to gain access to all the important stuff you can. Do you unlock stuff along the way or is everything unlocked for you to do activity wise from the start? For example, is there even buying houses in this, and can I do that at the start? What about car dealerships, is that in the game?
How long am I expected to play before I unlock everything significant to mess around with?

The vast majority of the campaign. I think the pacing with which new activities are introduced is fantastic, but it might not be what you're looking for.
