Running GTA IV on Windows 10

GTA series is my favorite games of all time, mainly because I can either just relax and drive around, or play competitively in missions and heist. GTA is a really good mixture of both, which I absolutely love. I already have 280+ hours on GTA V.

Recently I re-download GTA IV on my PC, because I haven't played it in such a long time, and I thought it's a good throwback game due to the fact that the map is so much different than GTA V. But before I download the game through Steam, I notice there are overwhelming amount of negative comments because it is not supported on Windows 10. Rockstar is probably too lazy to update the game, because GTA online is so popular, and it is giving them tons of revenue.

But I download GTA IV anyway...

• First off, the game shouldn't open on Windows 10, so you need to watch this video:

Just follow the directions, really simple. Download the file he provided, then copy and paste everything (expect readmes) to the GTA IV folder.

Then you can open GTA IV on your Windows 10! :D

• You should be able to play, if you have poor graphic and can't change it.

All you need to do is insert 4 lines of code in a txt document, and move it to the game folder.

Re-boot the game, you can change the graphics at your desire!
