GENERAL
_________
DirectX:
Grand Theft Auto III requires Microsoft DirectX 8.1 to run. As a
consequence we recommend that the video and sound drivers installed are
also DirectX 8.1 compliant. Even better, use a true hardware DirectX
8.0 / DirectX 8.1 card.
Windows XP:
We recommend manufacturer distributed drivers for Windows XP (i.e.
drivers that expose the user controls for changing settings on the
particular piece of hardware), instead of the default drivers installed
by Microsoft as part of the machine setup process.
Memory:
Grand Theft Auto III requires at least 96 MB of memory to run. For
optimal performance at least 128 MB is recommended (256 MB preferred).
Running Applications:
Grand Theft Auto III has been designed to take best advantage of the
available machine it is running upon, therefore we recommend that you
close down all applications before running Grand Theft Auto III.
Video Memory:
Grand Theft Auto III requires a video card with 16 MB of video memory
or greater to run. Grand Theft Auto III will refuse to run if it is
launched on a machine with less than 16 MB video memory.
AMD K6/2 and K6/III processors:
These AMD processors both play Grand Theft Auto III at too low a speed
to be acceptable.

CONFIGURATION

Sound Provider:
The sound API selected inside Grand Theft Auto III options can effect
game performance - try alternative sound providers to achieve better
results. Try Software, MSS Fast, RSX, Direct Sound Hardware, Direct
Sound Software.
Trails
Turning off the Trails effect in Grand Theft Auto III display settings
will help increase speed.
Screen Resolution
Selecting lower Screen Resolutions in Grand Theft Auto III display
setup will allow faster gameplay on lower end machines. Also using 16
bit color, instead of 32 bit color, will help in these circumstances.

TROUBLESHOOTING
_________________
No 60fps support
Please enable frame limiter in Graphics Settings since the game was not
designed to be played on ultra-powerful Graphics Cards. Without capping
the frame-rate to 30fps, you will notice some bugs, such as:
- Car brakes faster form inertia after releasing the "Accelerate Key"
- Car reverses slower when having more than 30 fps (annoying)

3D VIDEO DRIVERS

We recommend using the latest available Video drivers for your video
card. Where available use the video chipset manufacturers �Reference�
drivers in preference to video card manufacturer customized drivers or
Microsoft WHQL certified drivers.
