I never thought I'd say this, because I've never made any GTA 5 modding videos besides the ones with policing and FiveM, but... I have to say, challenge accepted ❤
I'm on of these "GTA 4 is better then GTA 5" persons but i have to say this is awesome. I'm experimenting with all sorts of mods for most GTAs that got released and had no idea converting IV to V like this is possible (not from a technican perspective but rather i had no clue most of these mods do exist) good job dude combining these mods and also good job to all mod creators
I remember, when GTA 5 wasn't avaliavle on PC. Some modders made a mod where the character selection wheel from gta 5 was availabe in gta 4. And you had Niko, Luis and Johnny to choose, just like in GTA 5. I believe this mod would be a cool addition.
It certainly would be! However, the problem with it is that the missions from TBOGT and TLAD won’t load if you’re playing GTA IV the base game. That would be a good modification to seeing if that could happen.
It's cool but I still prefer the dark and gritty GTA 4 weather. There are periods of time where the contrast is high. Also, I like the volumetric fog a lot in the original. They did the haze thing really well for the time. Definitely like the customization stuff though.
You know, my man, me too - I was surprised. I really thought at first "25 mods in one copy? Yeah right, pfft, like it'll sustain". I mean it has its issues and GTA 4 isn't the best with mods sadly, so there's a chance of crashing every now and then, but... I was surprised to know for even a second all of them can run at once.
After GTA V came out I could never stand to go back and play IV again because so much of the experience just didn't hold up. But this really makes me want to play IV again with this mod set. Great video
I'm happy to see that it's influenced many people to return to GTA IV modding. It's a lot of fun. It can be a pain sometimes, I agree. But yes, definitely something worth coming back to :)
GTA 4 I felt like always intended to have a dark and depressing feeling to it, using these mods just destroys GTA 4 but that's just my opinion, I would probably install some of these to enhance the gameplay experience to at least make the game feel more modern in this last months of 2023. Great video with an awesome selection of mods!
That’s exactly why I normally wouldn’t accept this as my ‘style’ of playing GTA 4! The idea here (as described) is to see if I can bypass GTA 4’s limits and see if I can make it as sort of a doppelgänger to another title, such as GTA 5 (in this case)! And I was shocked by the resounding success, partially speaking with all the errors lol. But thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️ I appreciate the love and support!!!
one thing that GTA IV needs is some anti-ailasing which isnt natively in the game. You can force MFAA which from what ive heard is just msaa 4x in the Nvidia control panel which really helps!
Agreed! I’ve heard of that trick too, I’ll give it a shot! I hope they come out with something for AMD users. Anti-aliasing, z-fighting, and performance stuttering are three of the major issues with GTA IV standalone. Thankfully, someone named Parallellines0451 fixed z-fighting. Someone fixed performance stuttering with DXVK. And now we need anti-aliasing fixes, which I’m hoping someone can come up with a better fix for that.
I know, right?! The mods are incredible! As a matter of fact, the entire modding community and the mods they make are both incredible. Thanks for showing your support and for watching ❤️
Gohar is absolutely correct! I do not run DXVK, it’s all sustained on the high end PC I have (specs in the description). My one core of CPU, and my GPU is holding, is holding this so to say.
My only issue with this was the LS weather mod. Taking away that grit and grime of Liberty City is like a mouse with no cheese. You just gotta have it.
What an amazing analogy lol 😂 No but you’re right, the dark and gritty feel of GTA 4 is maintained with its own graphics. This was basically a way of seeing if we could bypass GTA 4’s limits by making it as sort of a doppelgänger to GTA 5, seeing if it was even possible to get it as close to the newer title as possible.
Actually mice aren't as fond of cheese in real life as they are in cartoons, they're more attracted to the oils in the cheese than the cheese itself. They're easier to catch with Olive oil and bread
Zolika1351 is an excellent modder. It's too bad he resigned from the GTA community recently, but... I love his mods and will always keep using them and promoting them! Thanks for showing your support for my videos ❤
GTA IV had a sale on the Xbox store recently for like six bucks, I could not express how shocked I was that I can still buy it on console, say what you will but this game just FEELS good it just ooozes that gta charm from the older games like vice city and San Andreas while still feeling like a newer title and a decent 3rd person shooter, and having the BEST car physics in my opinion and this is the 360 COPY. If you can look past pop in and the obvious graphic fidelity it truly still shines to this day. Long live Niko
I agree 100%, this game seriously does OOZE that GTA feel, and it always feels satisfying playing it. Do yourself a favor, my friend. When it's raining outside your house, turn on that game console, and play GTA 4. You'll feel what I felt as a kid, that nostalgic and satisfying feeling of playing one of the best games in the world.
Sometimes I wish they took the time to really remaster this game, for sure, but I’m afraid on how bad they might mess up like the definitive edition of the three 3D universe games :)
@@NotAJ The next-gen GTA 4 port will come eventually. My guess is Spring 2024. I wouldnt worry about the graphics. Grove Street Games, the company that made the definitive editions for the GTA Trilogy were dropped. Its ashame that R* approved it, but GSG will not be making games for R* ever again. They were a sad mobile game developer. Rockstars most recent PS4 port of RDR1 was handled by Double Eleven and it is now the best version of the game to date, no matter how anyone feels about the price tag. I would expect GTA 4 to be the same which is not remastered but simply ported with 4K and 60fps.
I'm hoping that ends up being the case, my friend - if they keep all the elements the same, but touch up greatly on the features it needs, then I will be the happiest man alive.
Imagine if they separated each gta city into separate servers that allowed you to play in whatever city you wanted online and when you travelled between each one you just switch servers!
@@NotAJ but bruh You accidentally answering me your reply comment late because You must reply me before not after day for reply me late but ok thanks bro
Thank you, my friend - it's a nice little experiment that I wanted to do on one of my most favorite games ever. This is not how I would normally play the game, but it's a nice little project.
There is also a mod that you forgot to mention that comes from GTA V files and it is the V fxdecal + vehicle textures for IV made by the same guy that made the Customizable Niko mod (donnits)
REALLY?! Wow, I did not know about this. I’ll certainly check it out! I might even make a Part 2… but this time not get trolled with his name being “dognuts” (GTA Inside) lol 😂
After watching this. I want a remaster or on the next GTA to have liberty city. It’s personally my favorite map in the series, tho it’s smaller than San Andreas, I like how dense the urban jungle is.
GTA IV really needs more mods that DONT require downgrade. Not to say its bad to do so, but thats a headache in itself which if you screw files up you cant open
Yeah, I can see how that would be frustrating, honestly. I’ve seen many request that mods be supported for the latest update. But the problem is that Grand Theft Auto IV has its own complications, even to the point where ENBs won’t typically work on the latest versions.
That is absolutely correct. The motivation for these mods were mostly popular during 2014. And then some years later, modders continued that legacy and improved it overtime :)
@@NotAJ This reminds me of when I was a kid, I tried to mod cars in to GTA 4 but a lot of them needed their handling files modded by hand so I learned how to do that. That PC caught fire a couple years later either from a cheap power supply, dust buildup or just a bit of both factors.
No matter what anyone does GTA 5 still looks better and holds it's standard even today it's amazing how optimised it is i played on nvidia 660 I don't know why my rtx 4060 laptop couldn't run it maxed it 8x msaa 60 fps near vegetation 😂
Just like everyone else, your opinion deserves respect! Unfortunately, GTA 4 is not as optimized as GTA 5. But modders have been doing what they can to fix it’s optimizations: like DXVK, ZolikaPatch :)
@@MikyleY I found a sweet spot though turn msaa to 4x and reduce grass quality from ultra to very high( it makes 8-10 fps difference near heavy foliage and 5-6 overall).
AMAZING VIDEO MAN!Now make gta 3 like gta iv (i mean add the gta iv map to it,improve the graphics,add ragdoll,add fighting styles,make claude able to swim,etc.)
Yo AJ... respect for the video... you actually made me wanna replay GTA IV... I hope you read this. That video didnt invlude a graphics mod that u use right? What have you used ? icenhancer 4.0 or reVIve? :) Thank you - what version of the game you run for this ? thank you
Thank you so much for the kind words :) I hope you've had a chance to replay the game! This video did not include that graphics mod (iCE 4 and RevIVe) because I used a different one for this video to make it fit the GTA 5 vibe!
There are definitely a few of these I’d like to have in IV, either to experience the story differently, or for the fact that V did something better (car and character customization, the car naming system, greet/antagonize). I love the aesthetics of IV, but to play it in different lighting/weather would be very interesting. Now I need to see V modded to be like IV, especially the vehicle physics bc I very much dislike the arcadey feel of V.
These mods are truly a joy to play with! I didn’t think I’d get them to all work and function at once. It is typically true that a modded GTA IV with nearly more than 20 mods won’t hold, but not in this case. I’ll be doing a video like that soon! 🥹
You should make gta 5 more like gta 4, and no we love the dark nature of gta 4, you should try to make the darkness better, yeah great video tho, good work
You know, back when gta 5 still released on console only, i modded 4 to looks like 5, like the tank, plane, vehicle, road textures. Scripts etc. even the protagonist like trevor, franklin, and michael. But one thing that irks me back then was weather. No good gta 5 style weather back then 😂
Oh yeahhh, I remember those days! 😂 That modder JulioNIB and some of his collaborators did such an amazing job on those! It’s a shame that some of them don’t work for me though, like the character switching mod or the weapon switching mod - not sure why and others have experienced issues. That’s why some of the mods look slightly different since other developers have made ones that worked for me straight away. Either way, what a time that was, eh?
Hey, awesome video! I love the look of these mods. I never really liked GTA IV, so this is a huge step in the right direction, because I am a New Yorker, and I loved the LC in the game. Quick question: My main issues with IV was that it was the one game in the series that truly deviated from the arcade-style physics of III, VC, SA, V, and even the PSP/Stories games. Do you recommend any mods to make the physics of GTA IV (especially the driving) more arcade'ish, like V and the other GTA games?
Thank you so much for the kind words ❤️👌 I’m glad you can enjoy the game with these mode in mind. And yeah, of course, here’s a link to a really good driving mod I found recently that I’m going to make a video on, check it out: www.gtainside.com/en/gta4/mods/189052-realistic-driving-advanced-handling-mod-2020/
It is? I never knew that... but I also never played RDR2 before sadly. I should at some point. But in any which case, there is a similar feature in GTA 5 from years ago. I'm not sure if they removed it or kept it, but it was there during the PS3/XBOX 360 ages.
Another mod that would be needed is a character wheel to change between Niko, Johnny and Luis. Though switching characters would make the game to change the storyline for each characters and the mod would need you to own both the lost and the damned and the ballad of gay tony expansions in order for it to work.
That would be cool, but... I have a feeling that would be hard to code. I could probably explain why but I'll refrain since I'm not THAT SMART lol. But it would require a lot of manipulation to switch between the DLCs and loading their script files to see what missions are coming up next. Could cause problems if a modder tried it, but who knows.
LOL… Hey, I respect that because everyone has an opinion ✔️ The intended experiment for this video was to see if GTA 4 can truly go beyond its limits and almost become the doppelgänger of its next title. It was somewhat of a resounding success, partially I’d say.
Definitely agreeable! This was just to see if the aura can be twisted from GTA 4 to GTA 5, essentially trying to see if the limits of GTA 4 can be bypassed so it can be a doppelgänger to another title! I hope to try this with “GTA 4 to GTA San Andreas”, though it will be difficult considering the contrast in universes.
Thank you so much! I also find them to be interesting, as well. It's crazy to see how many mods are being made for Grand Theft Auto IV - it's like the community came together and really revived this game.
Some people do! I personally wouldn't further acquaint my style of playing IV to this level. I much prefer the idea of playing IV standalone as opposed to doing this frequently. For me, this was all just an experiment, and it was nice to try it for once!
I couldn’t have wrote that any simpler and better, I agree! ❤️ The intended experiment was to see if this game can go beyond its limits and look close to that of GTA 5! It was partially a resounding success, given that running all of these mods… well… it can be troublesome for the game to handle, but works like a charm when it wants to.
The ambience seems cool, weapon wheel and radio wheel are simply quality of life upgrades. I also really hate the mission passed screen as the original changing ones are perfect and I really really hate the GTA Online stuff
I personally wouldn't want all of these into a remaster of GTA IV, but certainly some aspects that can be toggled as options would be nice (e.g., the minimap, etc.).
SO UMM… I accidentally conflicted the files 😂 the EFLC content mods and the Parachute IV mod had the same model name and had a few conflicts with their animations and such… before I installed this ParachuteIV mod, it was fine because the EFLC content mods already had it handled… that’s why lol
Now do the opposite and make GTA 5 like GTA 4.
Agree 👍

Yo AJ... respect for the video... you actually made me wanna replay GTA IV... I hope you read this. That video didnt invlude a graphics mod that u use right? What have you used ? icenhancer 4.0 or reVIve? :) Thank you - what version of the game you run for this ? thank you
Thank you so much for the kind words :) I hope you've had a chance to replay the game! This video did not include that graphics mod (iCE 4 and RevIVe) because I used a different one for this video to make it fit the GTA 5 vibe!
thanks for anwering !:))@@NotAJ
@Auronfan02 Of course, no problem!
There are definitely a few of these I’d like to have in IV, either to experience the story differently, or for the fact that V did something better (car and character customization, the car naming system, greet/antagonize). I love the aesthetics of IV, but to play it in different lighting/weather would be very interesting. Now I need to see V modded to be like IV, especially the vehicle physics bc I very much dislike the arcadey feel of V.
These mods are truly a joy to play with! I didn’t think I’d get them to all work and function at once. It is typically true that a modded GTA IV with nearly more than 20 mods won’t hold, but not in this case. I’ll be doing a video like that soon! 🥹
Köszönjük Zolika! :D
Zolika on top, my friend :)
To be honest I would say this would be in the GTA V map mod for GTA IV
Hey! Are you saying like have the GTA 5 map in GTA 4? I was going to do that but didn’t want to risk any legal trouble.
You should make gta 5 more like gta 4, and no we love the dark nature of gta 4, you should try to make the darkness better, yeah great video tho, good work
I will seek doing this, for sure :) And thank you for the love!
Would love to see gta5 ported into rage engine. See gta5 at it's potential many full potential.
Extremely underrated!!
Thank you so much!! ❤️❤️❤️
My only issue is that 80% of these mods doesn't work with the complete edition :(
That is correct, this video is specifically suited for patches 1070/1080, which aren't bad either.
You know, back when gta 5 still released on console only, i modded 4 to looks like 5, like the tank, plane, vehicle, road textures. Scripts etc. even the protagonist like trevor, franklin, and michael. But one thing that irks me back then was weather. No good gta 5 style weather back then 😂
Oh yeahhh, I remember those days! 😂 That modder JulioNIB and some of his collaborators did such an amazing job on those! It’s a shame that some of them don’t work for me though, like the character switching mod or the weapon switching mod - not sure why and others have experienced issues. That’s why some of the mods look slightly different since other developers have made ones that worked for me straight away. Either way, what a time that was, eh?
Hey, awesome video! I love the look of these mods. I never really liked GTA IV, so this is a huge step in the right direction, because I am a New Yorker, and I loved the LC in the game. Quick question: My main issues with IV was that it was the one game in the series that truly deviated from the arcade-style physics of III, VC, SA, V, and even the PSP/Stories games. Do you recommend any mods to make the physics of GTA IV (especially the driving) more arcade'ish, like V and the other GTA games?
Thank you so much for the kind words ❤️👌 I’m glad you can enjoy the game with these mode in mind. And yeah, of course, here’s a link to a really good driving mod I found recently that I’m going to make a video on, check it out: www.gtainside.com/en/gta4/mods/189052-realistic-driving-advanced-handling-mod-2020/
excellent list, and well structured video, thank you!
Thank you for the kind words, my friend! ❤️
The biggest flaw of gta4 is how sloppy the cars handling feels.
i think gta IV has a great story line but the weather just looks too black and white without a mod, good video
Thank you!
Now make it work in VR and then you have New York simulator 😂
LOL
nice
Bro thats sick
❤️
Make it in reverse, what about making GTA 5 more like GTA IV
Challenge accepted, I’m on it ❤️
@@NotAJGTA 5 on its beta looked a lot like GTA 4
10:37 I’m pretty sure that Dialogue system is exclusively an RDR2 feature
It is? I never knew that... but I also never played RDR2 before sadly. I should at some point. But in any which case, there is a similar feature in GTA 5 from years ago. I'm not sure if they removed it or kept it, but it was there during the PS3/XBOX 360 ages.
To the untrained eyes this look like real life 1:44
Another mod that would be needed is a character wheel to change between Niko, Johnny and Luis. Though switching characters would make the game to change the storyline for each characters and the mod would need you to own both the lost and the damned and the ballad of gay tony expansions in order for it to work.
That would be cool, but... I have a feeling that would be hard to code. I could probably explain why but I'll refrain since I'm not THAT SMART lol. But it would require a lot of manipulation to switch between the DLCs and loading their script files to see what missions are coming up next. Could cause problems if a modder tried it, but who knows.
"Using mods to make GTA 4 more like an inferior game"
How
LOL… Hey, I respect that because everyone has an opinion ✔️ The intended experiment for this video was to see if GTA 4 can truly go beyond its limits and almost become the doppelgänger of its next title. It was somewhat of a resounding success, partially I’d say.
@@NotAJ lmao all good bro, you did a great job, I don't like V but this was fantastic at emulating the feel
Thank you so much bro ❤ Trust me, I love this game to bits. It carried my childhood and is really the main reason why I game today lol
In my opinion, GTA 4 is one of the best GTA games ever so being able to do this is just awesome.
"GTA 4 is one of the best GTA games ever"... agreed ❤
*Rockstar would like to know your location*
I’m over the bowling alley at Firefly Island, they can probably catch me there with Niko and Roman.
I would have to agree being able to transition would be incredible
Agreed! :) Thank you!
Now make 5 like 4 and it'll be done right
looks good.
definitely gonna try some of these.
Please do and have lots of fun! ❤
Liked for the weapon wheel mod alone 😂
That was also one of my favorites, too. A lot of people always wanted that for IV.
This is insanely cool but i would never play GTA IV like this , it ruins it s charm
Definitely agreeable! This was just to see if the aura can be twisted from GTA 4 to GTA 5, essentially trying to see if the limits of GTA 4 can be bypassed so it can be a doppelgänger to another title! I hope to try this with “GTA 4 to GTA San Andreas”, though it will be difficult considering the contrast in universes.
These videos are so interesting , keep doing them
Thank you so much! I also find them to be interesting, as well. It's crazy to see how many mods are being made for Grand Theft Auto IV - it's like the community came together and really revived this game.
@@NotAJ I agree
when you cant afford GTA 5:
🤣🤣🤣
9:12 this is the best thing i have ever seen!
So many options!
GTA IV >>>> GTA V. Why would anyone want to make GTA 4 more like 5?
Some people do! I personally wouldn't further acquaint my style of playing IV to this level. I much prefer the idea of playing IV standalone as opposed to doing this frequently. For me, this was all just an experiment, and it was nice to try it for once!
Because GTA5 is better
@@idontknow20404 It's ok to be wrong.
I miss this game ❤ Can we all agree that the release of GTA 6 is a joke now... RockstarGames are so slow
This game is worth revisiting in 2023, bro. Definitely get it 🥹 And yessss I agree, they say today is the day where the trailer releases.
The whole draw of GTA IV is it's NOT GTA V.
You're right on about that, my friend. I just did this as sort of an experiment :)
It’s just for a video like he said. ffs stop dickriding
I never beat GTA 4 so I forgot everything im gonna replay it with these mods and breathe life back into the game
Enjoy the mods and the gameplay 🙏
Pov: u cant afford gta 5
REAL 😂
Pov: u don't have a pc
I don't want to disrespect the incredible job this guy had to make this possible, but DAMMMN what a Frankenstein...
Thank you 🥹🙏 No disrespect at all, it’s your opinion ❤️
@@NotAJ thanks man :)
But its already GTA 4 > GTA 5
I couldn’t have wrote that any simpler and better, I agree! ❤️ The intended experiment was to see if this game can go beyond its limits and look close to that of GTA 5! It was partially a resounding success, given that running all of these mods… well… it can be troublesome for the game to handle, but works like a charm when it wants to.
The ambience seems cool, weapon wheel and radio wheel are simply quality of life upgrades.
I also really hate the mission passed screen as the original changing ones are perfect and I really really hate the GTA Online stuff
The ambience is probably one of my most favorite ones ❤️
Looks amazing! Now all I will need is to find $2500 for pc parts to run it 🤔
That's what this really boils down to, because GTA IV needs that 😂
Damn I remember everyone used GTA SA mods to turn the game into GTA 5. Now using GTA 4
Yes, my friend, yes 👌
Epic vid man! I subbed
Thank you so much! Welcome to the channel! ❤
Finally, someone has turned GTA 4 into a good game!
Hopefully since the remaster of 4 is still happening we'll see some of these incorporated into the remaster.
I personally wouldn't want all of these into a remaster of GTA IV, but certainly some aspects that can be toggled as options would be nice (e.g., the minimap, etc.).
@@NotAJ fair. But definitely some good quality of life effects.
You just earned another subscriber man
Thank you so much, Mark! ❤️❤️
damn u got me wanting to play gtaIV again !!!!!
I remember you, bro! Damn, subbed for 5 years is insane. Come back to GTA 4!
@@NotAJ yea lil bro im still here!!!!!!
theres only few things i would put from gta v to 4 and you just happened to put the best.
Thank you so much, my friend ❤️ I appreciate that! Enjoy your modding experience!
14:44 Absolutely not lmaooo, why is the screen like this when Tbogt had it perfectly 😂
SO UMM… I accidentally conflicted the files 😂 the EFLC content mods and the Parachute IV mod had the same model name and had a few conflicts with their animations and such… before I installed this ParachuteIV mod, it was fine because the EFLC content mods already had it handled… that’s why lol
