It creates a new "GTAIV"-folder with the Tools components in " X:\(.)\Steam\SteamApps\common\grand theft auto iv\". This is important, because otherwise you will have to reinstall GTAIV and start all over again.ĥ. Change the name of your "GTAIV"-Folder (X:\(.)\Steam\SteamApps\common\grand theft auto iv\GTAIV) to something else than "GTAIV". Download the "Rockstar Social Group Tool" (RGSG): Click, but DO NOT install it!Ĥ. Just merge the content of the archive with your GTAIV-Mainfolder and overwrite everything.ģ. If an error occurs during the installation you can use this archive that contains the patch as well. Download the 1.0.4.0-Patch for example from here: Click and install it. Move to the tab "Updates" and change the given option to "Do not automatically update this game".Ģ. Start Steam, open your Library, right-click on "Grand Theft Auto IV" and click on Properties. After one full start of GTAIV you can begin with this manual.ġ. 1.0.7.0 / EFLC compatible files are included in iCEnhancer 2.1Īttention: You have to start GTAIV at least one single time through steam and let it install. Steam users who don't want to downgrade / EFLC users: Skip this downgrade guide. Steam servers have the latest version ( 1.0.7.0 ) so we're going to need a downgrade. Steam users: We’re going to be downgrading to 1.0.4.0. Retail users: Simple, download the 1.0.4.0 Patch.
So let us prepare the game, assuming you are on a fresh install. however it will never look as good as any 1.0.4.0 ENB. So when someone claims their ENB is 1.0.7.0 ( Latest patch ) compatible, it basically means they are tested for basic compatibility: No colours that are completely off, image isn’t black, basic features working etc. After 1.0.4.0 he basically got fed up and decided not to re-write the shader any more – That means any ENB on versions higher than 1.0.4.0 are not full-feature ENB. For every patch, Rockstar basically made a new shader to fix a lot of the game’s problems however that also meant Boris Vorontsov, the guy behind ENB had to re-write the ENB shader. The PC version of GTA IV have had a bit of a hard birth. Why is the 1.0.4.0 patch so special, why doesn’t the latest patch work? Right now we’re focusing on two versions: Retail version patched to 1.0.4.0 or Steam versions downgraded to 1.0.4.0. I’m assuming it’ll behave like the latest version of GTA IV ( 1.0.7.0 ) thus being a limited effect experience only compatible with a few select ENB versions. As an early disclaimer, my knowledge surrounding the EFLC versions and ENB is limited. However I’m not claiming to know everything about ENB, so I’ll cover as much as possible. Now it’s time for a more fleshed out thread with a proper how-to guide and explaining the various patches, game and ENB versions. Now we’ve had the other ENB thread for some time now, however it’s just a thread of the same questions over and over again, a lacking OP and just a lot of confusion.
