Defuser Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 I desperately want to use the clip capture feature. Unfortunately, with my hardware, it seems impossible. It's not due to a lack of power, oh no, I'm running a top of the line powerhouse, everything updated. Now, however, I am beginning to get frustrated. Nothing appears to work with regards to solving this issue and I am starting to lose my patience. As far as I am concerned, the clip capture facility was one of the features I was most looking forward to and would provide the most replay value from the PC version of the game. When I do try to use the feature, and when I do manage to get a few clips (which are always sub-20 second snatches of action) and edit them together, I see the potential and it frustrates me even further. I've lost count of the amount of amazing moments of gameplay that I have missed or the amount of times I have driven past a part of the city and had an idea for a movie and unforunately had to abandon it and move on. I can only play this game with clip capture off. With it on, I crash within the hour. Sometimes, if I am lucky, I can top a couple of hours. I can only capture clips running around 20 seconds in length. Clip capture length is supposed to be dictated by RAM amount. I have 6GB of DDR3. Tell me how that's too little when people with considerably less can capture more than a minute at one time. Sometimes I cannot enable clip capture because I 'don't have the system resources'. That's preposterous. I run a clean system (Vista64) with no extranneous services or background programs. I am astonished at how this problem slipped by the QA team. I am also astonished that it is still unfixed, two patches later. I'm purchasing another 6GB of ram, making a total of 12, this week to see if any difference is made. I'll report back to tell you whether it makes a difference, but I'm not anticipating anything drastic. I'm also going to switch to nVIDIA at some point this week as well (a 295 instead of my current 4870X2) so I'll let you know how I get on. OK, a quick update. I have installed the extra 6GB RAM and swapped to a 295 GTX. It DOES NOT make a difference to clip capture length. That remains at the same amount it always has. It DOES make a difference to how smooth the game is. With norestrictions and nomemrestrict, I can run at absolute maximum everything at 40+fps constantly 1600x1200, instead of reducing the view distance to 40. There was some slight stuttering above that with the HD4870X2, not with the GTX. I am also free of CTDs and out-of-vram errors, so now I can at least capture clips without the fear of crashes. It DOES also make a difference to how videos are rendered in the clip editor - with the GTX 295, the video is rendered at a high frame rate (takes longer to render, though). I'd say the 4870X2 was rendering at about half that. Makes the finished product look much better when it's running smoothly. I haven't noticed any other major changes. I'll keep you guys posted but it seems like clip capture length is NOT dictated by RAM amount or your GPU. It must be something else... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killer45acp Posted February 1, 2009 Author Share Posted February 1, 2009 I hate the RESC10 error, with the 1.0.2.0 patch I can play less than 2 hours before I get it. It always happens when I press the ESC key or the start button on my wireless 360 controller. I can play for longer as long as I don't touch those keys!

mr_zen256 Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 Hey all. I was having problems with getting the "Out of video memory" error under Vista x64. I reinstalled GTA 4 on XP 32bit and played for about 3-4 hours yesterday with no crashes at all, including the "out of vid memory" error. I am starting to think this error is specific to Vista x64. Normally, I would have gotten the error after about an hour of play when I press the ESC key to check my map. I pressed the ESC key multiple times over that 3-4 hour period with no issues at all. This is all on the same hardware, I have the PC dual booting Vista x64 & XP 32bit. Also, in the benchmark, I had about a 4fps increase over Vista x64, although, the framerate does appear "smoother" under vista. Loadtimes for me are significantly faster under XP. I think this is because Vista is using my full 8gb of RAM whereas XP is only using 3.25gb, so, not as much memory to fill with game data. I am going to do more play testing on SP & MP and will report back if I have any more "out of video memory" issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Defuser Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 (edited) How about a straw poll of all the people using Vista 64 that have this error? I think the answer might be surprisingly high. Even so, Vista should not use all your RAM. In theory Superfetch, the service that is responsible for most RAM consumption in Vista, should automatically scale back and allow any other program room to use as much memory as it needs when it is run. All Superfetch is supposed to do is load into your physical memory the most commonly used programs Vista thinks you use - once a program is started, it runs in the background but never takes any more RAM than what it is allowed after all other programs have taken their share. If you feel as though Superfetch is responsible (it does thrash your hard drive as it harvests its next prey) you can disable it in the services menu, and your RAM consumption will be much, much lower. While you're at it, you can also disable indexing of your hard drives if you feel they're being too actively mined. I've already tried with both Superfetch on and off - it makes no difference, just like anything else I tried when I had the HD4870X2. I am absolutely positive it is a problem with how the game has been coded and no amount of tweaking will rectify that.

mr_zen256 Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Ok, so I had a game session with XP 32bit for about 6 hours. I had one game lock up during that time and it did not relate to the "out of video memory" error. I was able to CTRL-ALT-DEL and end the GTA4 process, then restart. Comparitively to Vista, XP crashes WAY less while running GTA 4. Vid drivers are 181.22 WHQL on both vista and xp. During a 6 hour gaming session in Vista x64, I would estimate GTA 4 would crash at least 5 or 6 times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronFixXxeR Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 So I just "upgraded" to Vista 64 and found out about this memory leak in GTA4. Before I was running XP 32 and never had any memory leak problems, only the occasional crash to desktop glitches when playing. I would play for many many hours, all weekend, all day and such with no memory leaks on 32 bit XP. I hope the next patch will fix this issue because it really makes the game unplayable with my 64 bit Vista. Here are some videos I made while running on 32 bit XP as proof that I spent hours editing them with no crashes! http://www.youtube.com/ironfixxxer (Watch them in HD) Asus P6T Deluxe Mobo Intel i7 920 @ 2.67 GHz BFG GTX 260 Graphics Card 8GB Corsair XMS3 RAM Cooler Master v10 CPU Heatsink Corsair 750 watt PSU VelociRaptor 10,000 RPM 300GB HDD Seagate 160 GB HDD Sony DVD-RW Windows Vista Home Premium 64 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here, 64 bit enhanced my fat ass Enhanced to CRASH! is there anyway to get the game to run under XP SP3 compatibility mode? I can only get SP2 :S I am starting to think the game was not even tested extensively on Vista, let alone 64bit XP and Vista! I have sent a email off to R* i doubt they will be able to do anything until the next patch, which as been over a month since the last one. Anyone having this memory leak crash should send a message off to Rockstar Support, more poeple that do it hopefully means it gets fixed permanently and quicker!

killer45acp Posted March 2, 2009 Author Share Posted March 2, 2009 I'm using video driver 182.06 and I get the RESC10 error in less than one hour now, so the video driver has something to do with the RESC10 error. I hope nvidia will fix vista 64 like they did on XP 32. I really don't want to have to buy xp 32 and setup dual boot just to play GTA IV. They don't mention GTA IV in the readme You must check the release notes for all info, it seems they fixed some few stuff related to 9600 GT SLi under Vista 32 and 64 bits. If you also check the RN of beta version 182.05, they mention a "out of video memory" fix on xp 32 bits.
