C06alt Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 The distant car imposters in GTA IV are not 2d sprites there 3d. And disabling them will not put real 3d cars in their place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you go here and set up your rig right here in my place, there is no way there is a guarantee a commandline file that works fine for me works fine for you.

Nillus Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Thanks for sharing, I never could be bothered to run this game with -help to show all the commands. Btw, what are 'imposters in vehicles'? I should make some program with a GUI that lets you select options and slide sliderbars to create a custom commandline.txt soon, I think it would help alot of people.

supermortalhuman Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Again, have you read this post I've linked? http://www.radioactive-software.com/forum/...3de2f1ef24ae7be Imposter Rendering is a common programming technique which replaces 3D objects far away in the distance with flat 2D sprites in order to save resources and to increase performance. Because the objects are so far away and so small you won't notice that they are in fact just 2D sprites. When you disable this feature I think the performance will break down. I've read your link, i understand it and i wish R* have used this mathod to improve performance, unfortunately it is not so. This command only remove the fake car models that were fake from the start, when i fly above the city i get 60-70fps with or without the command since it's really just a minor cosmetic change. so when u activate or deactivate i bet they become 3d.. but that wouldnt look so "much" better wrong, it simply remove those models from the game and clear the roads from fake traffic. This is because it disables the animated ones on the LOD - the headlights and taillights and black silhouettes of cars, not any of the actual cars, but actually just the cars you see driving far, far away. There is a point where you can't see cars anymore, then further away you can see cars again, THOSE are the impostors in GTA IV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supermortalhuman Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 It is for stereoscopic rendering, or 3D glasses. I don't know if it works, but if it does, you need a card+monitor that both support it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spider-Vice Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 It disables these low polygon cars that you see at the distance when in a high building. I don't know how that will increase performance or do anything as these cars have like... 10 polygons?
