    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?

    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 :/

    If you're having a problem with graphics you should turn the Draw Distance down, not up.

    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.
