Issues fixed[edit]
Low FPS on Windows 8 and later[edit]
- If you are using ThirteenAG's WS fix then first rename the
ddraw.dll
from ThirteenAG's WS fix to dinput.dll
and remove wndmode.ini
to make them work together[3]
(DirectX 10.1+) Use dgVoodoo wrapper[citation needed]
|
- Download newest dgVoodoo 2.
- Extract it and place it in a convenient place.
- Start dgVoodooSetup.exe and configure it.
- Go to DirectX tab and make sure that Disable a passthru to real DirectX is not checked.
- Select Virtual 3D Accelerated Card under Videocard and set its RAM to 65536 kB.
- Check Fast video memory access under Miscellanneous and set VRAM to 128 MB or higher for playing in 32-bit video mode.
- Click Apply and OK.
- Now go to
MS folder in dgVoodoo's folder and copy files D3DImm.dll and DDraw.dll.
- Go to the
<path-to-game>\WINO and paste the files in there.
|
Settings.exe configuration will not save[edit]
MGL Fatal Error on startup[edit]
- Error message: "Error 296.473: Cannot find the default display mode"
Crash when using ThirteenAG's WS fix on high resolution monitors[edit]
ThirteenAG's widescreen fix will default to using desktop resolution, but higher resolutions will crash the game.
Set a lower resolution
|
- Edit
<path-to-game>\WINO\scripts\GTA1.WidescreenFix.ini and set ResX and ResY to your desired resolution. Resolutions up to 2880x1620 work, but UI doesn't scale so going lower is recommended.
|
Crash with multiple monitors[edit]
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[edit]
Audio tracks in wrong order[edit]
- The audio tracks of the Steam version are named wrong which leads to hearing police radio chatter when not in a car.
Radio goes silent after a while (Steam/Rockstar Classics version)[edit]
Use updated mss32.dll[7]
|
- Go to this post on GTAForums and download the updated
mss32.dll provided by user Alienx999.
- Paste it to
<path-to-game>\WINO\ and overwrite the existing file.
|
London 69 cutscenes are corrupt[edit]
- 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[edit]
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.
