Incredible GTA IV Graphical Overhaul

[QUOTE="millerlight89"]So is ICEnhancer 1.2 the only mod I need for my GTA to look like that?DanielDust

Is it sad I went out and bought a retail copy of the game just to play this mod?

Yeah... it's sad.

Just installed it. Gonna try it out. :D

Edit: Broke my game, probably because I only have EFLC.

This looks incredible. Props to whoever made that.

I kind of doubt that my poor GTX 460 and my 3.4GHz quadcore would be able to handle that though..

Should be able to handle it with no problem. Look at the specs of the system that the author was running it on.

Probably requires 560 Ti SLI and dual hexacore CPUs :(scar-hawk

I may be buying GTA IV just because of this.

[QUOTE="ocstew"][QUOTE="6_Dead_360s"]That isn't even gta.

6_Dead_360s

That video is def GTA4 with an SLR convertible modded in and some other stuff. BTW just installed and wow looks amazing and I get the same performance as regular GTA4 being as the game is very cpu limited. My 570 had room to run with GT4 but my phenom 2 holds me in the 30s usually.

Does anyone know how to undo the lens flare? Hate that effect. And also the lighting is a bit overdone. It IS what makes it look so realistic that and reflections but in some places the sky and view in front of you is pure white. Anyone know how to tweak it down a notch?

[QUOTE="millerlight89"]So is ICEnhancer 1.2 the only mod I need for my GTA to look like that?DanielDust

Has anyone experience overheating with their video cards? In the readme it says some nvidia cards were overheating and I want to know if this is also true for ATI cards(I have a radeon 5850)

Ok i've got it half working now. Reflections, trees, motion blur and AA do work but the lighting and sky is still the same as vanilla GTA 4. Does anybody know why this could be ? I'm running version 1.0.4.0, no xliveless cause i don't want to start a new game. (Or is it possible to import your game somehow, even with xliveless enabled?)

And what do you think? RealizmIV ultimate textures or better city mod?

The moment you try to attack people, the police are on you, sometimes driving really fast, the police are on you. I wish there was at least a cheat to turn police off.

Meat_Wad_Fan

first hit on google for cheats and I found this...:|

Remove Niko's wanted level

Dial "2675550100" on the cell phone.Note:This phone number translates to "COP-555-0100". This code prevents the "One Man Army" and "Walk Free" achievements from being earned.

do you know how annoying it is to hit that every time you hit someone?

No I don't know how annoying it is, because every code is stored into your phone and you just have to select the cheat from the phonebook. You do not need to retype each number, after the first time you simply need to select it when you want to use it again.

yes but you have to select it from your phone each time. and that is annoying. I played this on the 360, but i cant imagine the phone system being that much better on the pc. I'd like to be able punch someone on the street and not have to go to my phone to turn off my wanted level only to get it back a second later for punching a guy on the street again.

Ben-Buja

LensFlare.rar and LightShafts.rar, they're in the mod but they're left as archives, you need to extract them and overwrite the files.

I like the look of better city textures, try both of em, back up the original GTA files and try both mods, see what you like more.

[QUOTE="ocstew"][QUOTE="6_Dead_360s"] Yes it is. Guys let me tell you something. This IceEnhancer mod is merely a package of OTHER peoples' work, tweaked. The main reason why it looks so good is because of ENB series, yet this phoney doesn't even credit the original author, Boris. Despicable, stealing other peoples work in the mod scene is a sure way to kill it.6_Dead_360s

If I download the car mods, how do you spawn them? I don't want to drive around looking for them.couly

So far so good, xliveless is installed, the lighting is fine now but the sky is red at night without any stars and almost cloudless at day time. No lensflares either.

I have that red sky at night as well, it's quite annoying.

The more realistic game graphics become, the less interesting they look. Let's face it, real life typically just does not look very interesting.

[QUOTE="Ben-Buja"]

[QUOTE="couly"] you need xliveless, it saves in a different folder, you have to move your save game files, check this thread. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=436159&page=18Wasdie

Okay i got it fixed now and the game looks absolutely stunning. Are you using EVGA Precision by any chance? I did use it before and apparently it was causing some problems with ENB.

This is what it looks like now:

^Those are some nice pics.:D

I have ICEnhancer 1.2, and even on medium settings with a short veiw distance it still looks better than the standard game on high. The Lighting and rendering is just superior.

Wow GTA 4 already ran horrible on my system if I put this mode on my computer it would explode lol :P

But very nice mode anyway looks as good or better then crysis

Are you using EVGA Precision or MSI Afterburn or a similar software? Apparently these kind of programs can cause problems with ENB. Also don't fiddle with the original d93d file, it has to be there to make the whole mod work.

Makes me wish I had it for my PC

I had something interesting happen with this mod. It was working perfectly for me; it looked great. Then I installed a car pack mod and started getting the odd red sky at night bug. Fortunately, I saved a backup of my GTA folder and just reverted to that and everything is fine again. FYI, This mod may not play nicely with other mods. It's still really nice, though.

I prefer ENB and texture mods.. look what i did (WIP)

Hi people Im new to gta forums I didn't no it existed lol I've been browsing the normal forums so far.

This is what I think.. GTA V should be as good (or better) than these screenshots.. I have done tons of mods to it to improve the gaming experience

(I know about vehicle licensing but that quality of GTA V's models should at least be better quality than previous ones)

This is GTA Episodes From Liberty City with multiple modifications and tweaks :)

Tell me what you think :) Constructive criticism only :P

Two shots of the dashboard view mod on the bikes

Some more updated screenshots of the epms modification, this time its displaying automatic spoiler & cooling vents working automatically on a lamborghini reventon, edited time of day files and weather effects to give more realistic visuals. Also some more first person screenshots & in-game screenshots

NOTICE

PC version only, I bought it specifically because modding and 32 player deathmatch is only available on the PC platform

ALL Screenshots are in-game, playable framerates with only a dual core!
