I AM NOT INSANE! Group: Members Joined: Feb 8, 2011	Thanks, I was just wondering since Patches 1.0.5.0 - 1.0.7.0 from GTA IV didn't work for me, but seems like the EFLC patches worked perfectly. Just one more question, why does GTA EFLC lag more than IV? This post has been edited by JF-Mir2 on Monday, May 7 2012, 00:19

Lower the shadow density and kill the night shadows, that should help.
