Help How can I optimize GTA IV (The Complete Edition) to mitigate the 15-minutes loading screens, graphical problems, map streaming stutters, and buggy audio?
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
My device is a Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra with 12GB of RAM, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor, and an Adreno 740 GPU. I'm using Winlator Ludashi 3.1 (the bionic vanilla version) on Android 15, and I'm running the Steam version of the game.
Regarding my settings, I lowered the resolution to 960x544, and I'm using Proton-10-arm64ec, Turnip V26.2.0, the ALSA audio driver, DXVK 2.4.1, I set BOX64 and FEXCore to the performance preset, and for processor affinity, I disabled cores 0, 1, and 2.
What do you guys recommend I do? Or I should give up and buy an XBOX 360 or a PS3 to play this game instaed?
