Install the GTA 4 Remaster Mod 2024 Now! (Tutorial) 

*Would you like Rockstar to make a remaster of GTA 4?* 👇

This mod looks like how I remember it from when I first bought it.

the actual starter level for remastering 4's graphics is to use fusion fix which by now includes restoring some lost things and even FIXING the nigh shadows where no longer do you have to fear performance loss

So glad I found your video, I wanted to play GTA IV again after many years with remastered mods and you made this a breeze to follow along and get it all working. Thanks!

Okay, here's something extra from my side which I want to personally share with few people commenting on same issue I had. I just downloaded and mod the game as the video tried to show today. . Firstly, I have Steam version of GTA-IV (complete Edition) and I have an AMD setup. Secondly, I encountered the same problem as many comments mentioned, "After downgrade the game ran fine, but as soon the first mod was installed the game was stuck in black screen / or was not loading". It also didn't let me shut down my pc. I went along with the full installation process regardless and, Finally there is a folder named "troubleshooting and Support " folder in 'ICEnhancer' where I copy pasted the 'FIX' files (AMD GPU FIX) to my main folder(GTA-IV Directory). I did not try the "Game doesn't launch" fix folder, but on reading the 'readme' I found it contains a fix for NVIDIA users. And after the whole ordeal, the game worked perfectly. . An addition for people commenting about the weapons mod, for which there is no detailed video, it is simple: - Download the file - Extract the compressed file - Open read-me text - Copy paste the files in the folder location where it is mentioned. (P.S.: In case the folder mentions the location which sounds like inside the image file and no way of accessing it, don't worry, just copy the proper files which are mentioned in the same folder). . Works like a charm and that's how it worked for me!!! . Quick review: The game runs smooth and fine and it has a tiny issue of texture flicker for distant objects (buildings/structures) which are a bit hard to notice. And a bit too noticeable in areas like the open fire station. (Cuz I guess that area is modded). . Edit: One more issue I noted is the cop siren wont flash when pressing the button. This is mostly due to the downgrade thing. (It will cause problems with one of the missions later on) Fix: Go to GTA-IV directory; -search for "ZolikaPatch.ini" -set "CopSirensFlag=0" -That should fix he problem. (zoika Patch ini file aims to fix many small glitches and errors so if you encounter any problem, that file might be able to help).

The fact that this game is still going well in 2024 I'm glad Is it we need to show this game more love before gta 6 comes out hope they remastered the game but probably not since there mistake with gta remastereds.

Now this is how you do a Modding Tutorial! Good stuff my dude.

Can you help me bro i just do the downgrader and the game doesn't work, anny suggestion? I will add that I have the complete version and it is on Steam

Worked out great. thank you.

The game does look very good and everything worked perfectly (Apart from the 2GB VRAM bug reappearing which is irrelevant) but it does look oddly dark in certain areas. It feels as if it's missing a great level of brightness/light. It might just be my own settings though so I must ask, does anyone else see this? Nevertheless you deserve my like!

here's a note to read... patch 1.0.4.0 only has GTA IV itself (no dlcs were brought to the public yet) but yet somehow the graphics are easier to mod... so this remastering doesn't allow for you to play TLAD or TBOGT in the same way

i installed everything but the game is very dark in nighttime? and the Anti Aliasing doesnt work??

followed step by step, but after downgrading, tried to launch and just get a black screen and crash. doesn't work for me unfortunately.... fresh install, no mods... so the "this will work 100%" claim is bogus

this doesn't work at all. followed the steps to the T and all i get is a black screen which i then have to restart my PC because it doesn't allow me to exit the black screen..

you dont seem to reply to these people but i did everything and i load up the game then as soon im about to actually play it just kicks me off the game help me

Can we install car mods after applying the remaster mod ?

Can’t get the downgrader to open. Can’t figure it out 🤷‍♂️

When i try to open gta 4 not working

is there a way to do this for version 1.0.7.0 i got the icehencer 4 and it has the 1.0.7.0 and 1.0.8.0 versions folder im confused af lol

Let’s face it. Rockstar will never remaster it as good as this. 😢

Can you work on a video tutorial that shows how to backup/downgrade and backup gta game save. I cant do or find any video explaining it

very good, my only issue is that it's raining under bridges. Any clues on how to fix this?

Crazy seeing liberty city updated with better graphics

Does not work on GTA4 the complete edition in steam. The PlayGTAIV.exe starts but gets killed after a short black screen.

And in addition to this, the already best look of GTA IV mod with WTC towers complements the game.

the thing ive found is that if u delete all ur save files or convert them you dont have the issue with the black screen and the game crashing. i had to figure that out tho. either way good vid it all worked.

After downgrader the definitive edition content disappeared I can't find (the lost and diamond.... Etc)... I need help please 🙏😔

Unfortunately this seems to have problems with car packs. The textures of all the houses don´t load in properly once a car pack is installed. That just sucks. Do anyone else seem to have the same issues?

After downgrading my game worked correctly but after installing graphics mod and those 2 recommended mods my game didn't work, first there was a error of 0x000005 ☹️ please help!!

It says account suspended on all of your links

Video is great and the explanation is brilliant but this has broken my game, i have had to re install 6gb of files because of the downgrading and im struggling to fix the rest of the issues.

Is the steam version of the game supported?

first of all, I think it's good that you use Brave too, I've been using it for a few years now and secondly, thank you for your great video, it really helped me to play the game again with better graphics, especially since it's the only game where the protagonist is Serbian like me (but I live in Germany^^) thanks bro

How do you stop steam / rockstar launcher from trying to force update the game every so often with one of their “security patches” ?

nice thank you brom !

The whole weapon mod install section was skipped. The files in the download seem to require OpenIV. Just wanted to make sure that was the intention and I can move forward with the OpenIV setup and install of the weapon mod.

Yeah I thought this was for BOGT and TLAD. thanks bro I have to reinstall everything now

everything works perfect except alot of the missions are bugged or not playable at all. Specifically the mission "logging on", I am not able to acces the computer at the internet cafe. Also the mission "do you have protection", I am not able to enter the gun store. The only way I found to fix this, is to download save files to skip the missions.

i have 1 problem.,.....its working great on day.... but at nights its too dark can see anything

The mod makes it look like gta 5 graphics way ahead of its time pretty cool mod

These graphics > GTA 5 graphics

thank you man, it really worked.

Glad to see people keeping gta 4 alive 🎉

i purchased the game from steam ? and mines crashing when launching playgtaiv

Thank you I just got done modding my GTA IV: Complete Edition I bought today for $5.99 on sale. This made modding it extremely easy. I appreciate this tutorial now I just need to download a real car mod. Any suggestions?

hey bro when i launch the game shows black screen and then crashes any idea how to fix this??

everything worked perfectly, thanks! but in my game, there is a weird zoom in the cutscenes, is that something from the mods? if it is, how do I fix it?

Great tutorial dude it work great and game look amazing 🙏🏻

AFTER THE DOWNGRADE, The game could not launch. It basically crashed everytime. what's the issue??

Hi I have tried 2-3 times but i am getting same error after i try to play downgraded version 1.0.4.0 The error says Securlauncher (2000)

Doesn’t work for me when I downgraded the game everything worked but after I installed this mod it didint start and said that something was wrong

I'm new to modding and i don't fully understand and quite possibly need a full video to explain from installing the game, to installing the downgrade, seeing each step for what it is and what to do. if that makes sense!

Will this work on my ASUS Rog Ally?

When i try to launch the game and the loading screen starts i get this error "The connection to Games for windows - LIVE has been lost. Returning to single player." And it continues after perssing ENTER thats says "OK"

Which trainer would you recommend for health, ammunition cheats with this remastered game?

i did all, it's amazing all is working but then i tried to install the LCPDFR Mod but it crash at loading after the images of the personages when it says "loading - the cousin bellic" can you help me pleaseee? love u

what's your in-game graphics settings?

Which car mod do you use? I like GCU Car Pack but no compatible with version 1.0.4.0. Thanks for the video, so good.

Playgt.exe is not working i cant open it. whats the solution

you kinda skipped over how to install the weapon mod lol i've got it downloaded but dont know where to put it, the rest of the mods worked perfectly!

I can't download any of the mods you mentioned in your website, the site keeps on loading until it says the site took too long to respond, please fix this I am really impressed by your mods and I'm eagerly waiting to play gta 4 with those mods

I'm guessing this isn't possible with the rockstar launcher version? The steam version is no longer there.

Tbogt and Tlad weapons pack not working in V1.0.8.0

Hello THX for the video. It works also for Gta4 the complete edition?

Wait, I’m confused. Would you be able to save throughout the game with the mod on?

did everything on the instructions but still not working :(

I agree that the style was part of it But I was made for render distance limitations, remove does limitations why have and dark cloud in the way

I followed the steps but my game is like in windowed mode and I can see my desktop around the edges of the game. Is there a way to fix this by editing one of the scripts?

Mine launches but it's stuck in the legal and terms screen

the mod is installed but the game launches in window mode instead of full screen... does anyone know how to fix this? :)

is it possible to play with social club turned on? i needed for the achievements..

I'm glad there's no dumb real life brands, and the vehicles aren't made of mirrors

Black screen and then it jumps out

what was the performance like?, i have a rx 7800 xt and a ryzen 5800x3d

Does this work with the complete edition as well?

Thankyou it's working

I have problem, i run my game as administrator, black screen shows up but it is like that as long as i don't quit my game i won't start, doesn't show any errors

Nice. Thank you. I love this game.

I’m looking into getting a pc this year so I can mod gta iv and gta v can you add stuff like the gta 5 tank jetpacks etc with graphics mods? I’m new to all of this

you didn’t tell us how to download the weapons mod , hopefully you can soon , but great video

Thanks , good working all :D

HELP PLEASE. So I've done all this. It works great, but I'm only able to play the base game after downgrading? I have the complete edition so this means I can't play TBOGT or TLAD with these mods?

Great video bro but its unfortunate because you didnt show us how to open nor properly use the trainer, jus skipped it right along with the gun install huh

can this work for the complete edition with Tlad and tbogt?? i can only play the main game but want to play those expansions as well

Hey I tried getting car mods after I did all this and I was using ur video about it to install them where I changed the name of the file to replace a car and I can't even edit the car files cuz it says corrupt, is there another way to do it?

How can we prevent rockstar lunch from forcing the update, without the latest update I can't click play ? Thanks you

Can this mod be used with other mods? I'm new to pc.

hello how can I increase gpu memory, since with commandline doesnt work with mods?

Couldn't have told people that your saves wont be available after downgrading before the tutorial?
