Ive been messing w/ the settings a lot, game runs perfectly and nomatter what the settings are the glitch is still there, and ive downloaded all the drivers updates 4 my cards and 4 windows and everything, nothing works :angry:
-
maybe just comp cant keep up wi the game, happens to me ocas. if im in a car and driving quite fast.
maybe try turning the draw distances up a bit? or turn the graphics down a bit?

i think its just the way the game is meant to be ( tripping ) i got G44000 128mb runs gr8 but sometimes i think i'am tripping watching the graphics.

lol yea it can b trippy, i walk across the staunton bridge, look straight down and c the water! and i highly doubt the game is supposed 2 b like that, i think rockstar just fucked up! o well heh stupid programers need 2 test shit better rather then rushing it just cuz it was a direct port :/
-
so no1 knows a way i can fix this? i mean i thought the XP patch was made 4 it or isnt cuz im using XP?
-
If you're having a problem with graphics you should turn the Draw Distance down, not up.
-
well thnx 4 the tip but it didnt help me :(
y should putting that down help? the game runs fine and dont i want 2 b able 2 c as far in the distance as posible?
-
Lowering the draw distance limits the number of polygons that your video card has to push to the screen. I thought maybe that would allow it to correctly draw those glitches. Have you tried changing Frame Sync and Frame Limiter? Are you sure you have the latest driver for your video card? Do you have XP Service Pack 1? That's supposed to fix some GTA3 problems.

try sheepys high fps patch.
