Need more frames?
« on: September 26, 2013, 08:01:57 PM »
So, I promised this a while back, but never got around to uploading everything. But, without further ado, here it is. (NOTE: I do not take credit for everything involved in this tutorial, I did however, customize the time cyc at the end)

First off you can go to your in-game options and set the resolution to 640x480 and draw distance all the way down, visual quality on low, frame limiter off, and taking off all brightness.

1.) First thing replaces some files, this should increase your frames by about 5-10 fps.
Download the file: http://www.mediafire.com/?k738sfuu6fboh63
Go and copy the file, then paste it in GTASA:Models. You will find the stuntplane's smoke, vehicle's smoke and rocket's smoke (from Hydra) are either completely gone, or heavily reduced..

2.) The second replacement is for one of the laggiest object in the game. It is an object called "tree_hipoly19"
Download the file: http://www.mediafire.com/?cymxhmida9zqfgw
Download the program that allows you to open .img files: http://www.mediafire.com/?59ya41qqb1pz1wm
Replace the downloaded file with the one that you'll find when using the IMG tool.

3.) FPS Limit Adjuster.
Download the file: http://www.gtagaming.com/downloads/g...eas/tools/3060
Open the game, then open the program and set the value in the box to 105, click okay, then you can close it, do this every time you run your game.

4.) FPS Increaser.
Download it here: http://www.gtastunting.net/index.php?topic=53932.0
Open the game, then open the file, make sure the value is set to 0 to get the best fps. Leave the window open too, closing it will restore your fps, do this every time you run your game.

5.) GTA SA Shrinker. This makes your textures and skin quality's low, and makes them look kinda bad, but if you want more fps download it.
Download it here: http://www.mediafire.com/?7m574rdv7sk6kv0
Don't worry, it has an auto-backup button assigned to the program, so if you don't like it or it doesn't give you much better performance, you may remove it anytime you like, just locate your dictionary and click replace files.

6.) Removes your clouds and dust, and gives your game better performance to work with.
Make backups, download files here: http://www.sendspace.com/filegroup/C...PPTms2DeZQgnCI
The are both located in your models folder, if you make backups you can replace back anytime you like.

7.) Stream Memory Fix. Some times your game object's don't load, and that might cause lag and your fps to get low, download this.
Download here: http://www.gtagaming.com/downloads/g...eas/tools/8775
When too many high-res textures are added to the game they disappear because there isn`t enough memory to load them.
This ASI plugin solves this problem.
Requires ASI loader which is already installed after installing CLEO Library.

8.) The eight thing changes your weather and makes your game performance better.
It's called timecyc, download it here: http://www.gtagarage.com/mods/show.php?id=12994
Installation is very simple, place the "timecyc.dat" file in your *GTA SA Folder*/data don't forget to make a back-up.

9.) There's simple things you could do too to increase your fps, one is going to your start menu, right-clicking on your computer, click properties. If your on windows 7 or any newer type click advanced system settings then advanced tab or if your on windows xp and lower just go ahead and click advanced tab then under performance click settings, then check off Adjust for best performance and apply that. And to make your game better, go to your game, alt+tab, then ctrl+alt+del to open up task manager, go to processes, right click on gta_sa.exe and set priority to real time (if that makes your game slow, laggy, or gives you any packetloss set it back or close your game and open it again). And right click gta_sa.exe again in processes, and click set affinity, then click all cores.

This is my addition to the tutorial, it's a re-modelled timecyc. I basically took the one found in this pack and modified it ;)
How to install: Unzip with Winrar then Read the text, download link below this.
