- Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) support status is unknown.
Issues fixed
Low FPS on Windows 8 and later
- If you are using ThirteenAG's WS fix then first rename the
ddraw.dll
from ThirteenAG's WS fix towinmm.dll
and removewndmode.ini
to make them work together[3]
(DirectX 10.1+) Use dgVoodoo wrapper[citation needed] |
---|
|
Settings.exe configuration will not save
Set Settings.exe to run in Windows XP SP3 compatibility mode[citation needed] |
---|
MGL Fatal Error on startup
- Error message: "Error 296.473: Cannot find the default display mode"
Set the game to run in Windows XP SP3 compatibility mode[citation needed] |
---|
Crash when using ThirteenAG's WS fix on high resolution monitors
ThirteenAG's widescreen fix will default to using desktop resolution, but higher resolutions will crash the game.
Set a lower resolution |
---|
|
Crash with multiple monitors
Two error messages appear if you have more than one active monitor:
- CreateSurface failed (DDERR_OUTOFVIDEOMEMORY)!
- Error 303.502 Display Error: Selected Video mode not supported
Disable secondary monitors[4] |
---|
Crash after playing once
Use Grand Theft Auto I Launcher[5] |
---|
|
Audio tracks in wrong order
- The audio tracks of the Steam version are named wrong which leads to hearing police radio chatter when not in a car.
Use GTAFixer[6] |
---|
|
Radio goes silent after a while (Steam/Rockstar Classics version)
Use updated mss32.dll[7] |
---|
|
London 69 cutscenes are corrupt
- For some reason, the cutscenes don't play properly within London '69 in normal mode.
Try to bypass them or use either the Glide mode or 8bit mode (from the setup) to play them correctly. |
---|
Crashes on Ingame resolution change
Delete PLAYER_A/E.DAT files from folders \GTADATA and \GTADATA\UK. It can also be done from the Options panel in the launcher. This also resets the scores. |
