DOUGL4S1 Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 I'm not a pro in commandlines, but I THINK yours is forcing your PC to run the game in such a high quality that it can't render the peds. Try lowering the resolution or some graphical settings. Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/885477-gta-4-gray-pedshelp/#findComment-1069518928 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le Pro Noob Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 I think you are stressing out the game too much. Remove some of the commands. If that doesn't work, reboot. If that also doesn't work, reinstall. Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/885477-gta-4-gray-pedshelp/#findComment-1069519743 Share on other sites More sharing options...

sdfsfas Posted April 16, 2017 Author Share Posted April 16, 2017 I think I find the solution...More resolution you got,more distances you can see peds,but keep the help going...

Le Pro Noob Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Reboot means restart your PC. Assuming ,you are using windows, go to control panel and uninstall the game, keep your save files and then install the game again. And I don't catch your meaning. Hope this helps!

I encounter the same issue too, Last night I discovered a solution for this to fix the annoying distant gray peds, first download and install Zolika's trainer don't worry it won't replace anything in your game files and it's not a mess at all then start your game and load a save and hit the trainer key I use F12 but the default was probably F6 or F7 you can change it if you want back to the point you have to select Misc/Game Tweaks/Model Quality and from there choose whatever you want if you are complaining about the peds then it's obvious select Ped Quality Override and toggle it on and if you also don't like the car quality and how NPC's look blocky inside of it then also select Vehicle Quality Override. sadly you will have to do that everytime you open the game because I don't know if there is anyway to save trainer settings or if there is a way to make this a commandline IDK really but hey you got rid of that weird looking NPC. apparently when the game detects your PC as weak or incompatible machine it starts running measures to ensure stability like this one for instance but in this case ANY PC would be considered incompatible because I haven't seen a single PC runs this game higher than 45 fps in a heavily populated area, if you struggle too much with the fps I suggest you to set details to zero and the distance view to 10 and cars density at 22 cuz that's the vanilla for cars on xbox, also water quality on medium still okay and turn off shadows if necessary the game might look like a glorified GTA San Andreas copy in a sunny day but believe this is the best you can get and all those commands and stuff won't help just waste of time and puts stress on the game loading, i will post this solution on GameFAQs so others with old PCs would know Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/885477-gta-4-gray-pedshelp/#findComment-1072136630 Share on other sites More sharing options...
