What works
The installer works
The music plays without a screen.
What does not
I applied the TEXP70 patch, upgraded the game to TU5, and applied the XLiveLess patch, but when the game starts, the screen resolution is changed to 800x600, and a black screen appears for a second and disappears. GTAIV is basically not playable.
Games for Windows - LIVE does not work under Wine. GFWL components will crash any game that use the service. The only thing to do about it is to cut XLive out using XLiveLess Patch.
XLive is out and the game launch is unobstructed. Please note that from now on the online play via GFWL is disabled so as to prevent cheating.

Install fails
by mushryton on Saturday October 30th 2010, 12:19
After installing the actually GTA IV, the final process of the installation is to check the update or something online. But it always stops at 30% so I can never complete the installation.
How do I solve this problem?
Can someone please help me!?
Can't patch it

I installed it using PlayOnLinux, I copied the Razor 1911 crack in the directory. I started Launcher, but I got a screen Razor 1911 and a an error of the launcher, after that an wine error and everything stops. When I try to patch I got the same errors. Where is my mistake?
Crash after logos

Hi all,
I *think* I've done everything as I was supposed to: I installed GTA4 in a brand new wine directory, used a patched 1.1.41 version of Wine, updated the game and applied the required... Fixes.
The game starts, gta4browser crashes (I understand it should not prevent the game from running), I see the logos, "R" twice then in big "Grand theft auto 4" and then when I should finally see the menu (I think) the game crashes with this:
fixme:d3d_surface:surface_load_ds_location No up to date depth stencil location
fixme:keyboard:X11DRV_LoadKeyboardLayout L"0", 0002: stub!
fixme:keyboard:X11DRV_MapVirtualKeyEx keyboard layout (nil) is not supported
fixme:keyboard:X11DRV_LoadKeyboardLayout L"0", 0002: stub!
fixme:keyboard:X11DRV_MapVirtualKeyEx keyboard layout (nil) is not supported
(... and lots of these)
fixme:wininet:InternetCheckConnectionW
err:wininet:NETCON_secure_connect SSL_connect failed: 12157
wine: Unhandled page fault on read access to 0xa1641374 at address 0xa1641374 (thread 001f), starting debugger...
The 1st line was already there before the crash (along with others before it). The 1st "keyboard" line appears right when the game crashes and I then get a nice window saying "GTAIV.exe provoked and error" (I'm roughly translating, my system's in French, the game too).
In my previous attempts I tried to get d3dx9 and d3dx10 from Winetricks as someone here did, with no luck. Right now it's a clean install I've done just the minimum required as said above.
Does anyone have any idea of what might be happening?
OpenSUSE 11.2 x86_64 / Nvidia GT240 512MB with 195.36.15 drivers.
