    [TUTORIAL] GTA San Andreas Lag fix !

    This is not written by me its a copied (If its not allowed please don't bann me)
    What you will have after using all fixes below:

    No sounds, resulting in great FPS increase overall. You can choose not to do it if you want to hear sounds. (See IMPORTANT NOTE at end of post to know how to do it)
    Low quality textures resulting in a bit more FPS
    Original timecyc with reduced draw distance resulting in great FPS increase
    No sand when shooting on ground saving much FPS loss
    No gun smoke, no gun flash, no gun shells resulting in a bit more FPS
    No small grass and leaves on grounds resulting in more FPS
    No moon, no stars, no coronas on headlights or postlamps resulting in a bit more FPS at night
    Black mirrors resulting in small FPS increase when you are near mirrors
    No motion blur, no heat haze resulting in more FPS on high speeds or hot weather
    No clouds (especially no laggy clouds at high altitudes)
    No lightning on vehicles making them appear a bit dark resulting in a small FPS increase




    Installation Instructions:


    1. Get a clean unmodded GTA

    MODS = LAGS
    Get a clean install of GTA San Andreas without any mods whatsoever. To make sure there are no previous mods left, uninstall your GTA San Andreas, SAMP and remove the main folder as well after uninstalling.
    Also delete the gta_sa.set located in My Documents\GTA San Andreas User Files\ folder (For Windows XP users) OR in Documents\GTA San Andreas User Files\ folder (For Windows Vista or Windows 7 users).
    Then install a clean GTA San Andreas and SAMP without any mods.
    Go to My Documents\GTA San Andreas User Files\SAMP\ folder (For Windows XP users) OR go to Documents\GTA San Andreas User Files\SAMP\ folder (For Windows Vista or Windows 7 users).
    There, open the samp.cfg file using Notepad. There will be a line saying fpslimit=<some number>, change it to fpslimit=90 and save the file.
    Connect to any server on SAMP. Press Esc while in-game. Go to Options > Display Settings > Advanced.
    There, turn Draw Distance to minimum. Turn off Frame Limiter. Set FX Quality to Low. Set Anti-aliasing to No. Set Mip-mapping to No. Reduce Screen Resolution to 800x600x16 (or 640x480x16 if your PC is too slow)
    Close the game.



    2. Shrink your GTA using GTA Shrinker

    Download GTA Shrinker from here: http://www.mediafire.com/download/qr...hrinkerWin.zip
    Extract the file anywhere.
    Open GTA_Shrinker.exe
    Enter your correct GTA San Andreas main directory in first box
    Click Shrink button to start shrinking of your gta3.img file
    Wait till it is finished
    Download TXD Workshop from here: http://www.gtagarage.com/mods/show.php?id=8320
    Open TXD Workshop. Click Open IMG button. Navigate to your GTA San Andreas\models folder and open gta3.img. Type tree_hipoly19.dff in search box at bottom-left of screen. Right-click tree_hipoly19.dff in the panel above search box. Choose Replace from the menu. Replace withtree_hipoly19.dff included in this download: http://www.mediafire.com/download/7m...e_hipoly19.dff
    Type sniper.txd in search box at bottom-left of screen. Click sniper.txd in the panel above search box. Click SNIPERcrosshair file in middle panel. Click Import button. Replace with SNIPERcrosshair file included in this download: http://www.mediafire.com/download/4s...Rcrosshair.png . ClickSave TXD button. Close TXD Workshop.


    3. Use low quality particles and effects

    Download these files: http://www.mediafire.com/download/ur...cq/effects.zip (EDIT: Fixed black water texture with exotic water texture)
    Extract and copy-paste them to \Rockstar Games\GTA San Andreas\models\ folder
    Overwrite files when asked



    4. Use Maximum FPS Timecyc

    Download this max FPS timecyc and modded gta_sa.exe required to run it: http://www.solidfiles.com/d/06ed773f...th_max_fps.zip
    Extract the files
    Copy-paste the downloaded gta_sa.exe to \Rockstar Games\GTA San Andreas\ main folder. Overwrite when asked.

    Well he was kinda nice.

    Anyhow this may be useful for people with heavy lag issues.

    I've only encountered the very frustrating issue of buildings and terrain not loading after I have tabbed out, but I don't suppose this would help for that.
    Don't go by the opinion that I hate you, that would suggest that I care enough about you to remember.
