GTA 4 Graphics problem

August 4th, 2016

I have a problem in the graphics in gta 4:
There are black parallel lines on the walls, and on the images on the walls.
As view changes, the black lines are tilted in different angles.
My pc is well above minimum requirements, and I have latest gfx card software and latest gta patch.
Any help?

Answer #1
Hey ,
Could you post a bit more info about you’re GFX card and specs?
Also a screen shot or 2 would be nice, it would instantly show us what the problem is.

It sounds like u have the same problem as me, I was wonderign if everyone had it or if it was jsut me. It looks like a wire mesh no some of the texures and goes away as i get close. Its generaly on textures in the distance. I have a GTX 295 so I also dont understand why it was happening.
Answer #3
Well ,
Perhaps you have a screen shot for me then?

That doesn’t look like a problem at all. It’s the side of a building cast in shadow.
Answer #11
It is a problem and it is on all surfaces including images on walls
Answer #12
Oh wait I see it now. Don’t know why I didn’t earlier heh.
Turning off shadows will get rid of the error.

Turning down the gfx to a minimum would obviously solve everything, but I think he’d rather have the best gfx without the shadows as long as his gfx card can handle it.

I tried but it didn’t work.
Even Rockstar are now producing crap.
I found out that it is a rather common problem, known as ‘z fighting’
