Apart from the game's obvious brilliance, GTA IV's Liberty City is still the best and most lifelike interpretation of New York City, so it's great to see what modding community can achieve on a 15+ year old engine.
This was really well-said. I agree with you wholeheartedly. Even having been to NYC, it's crazy to admit how going there makes you look back and say "wow, I saw this in GTA 4", and vice-versa. And I'm with you there, the modding community has come to achieve huge brilliances with their projects and hardwork.
Something i would love is a graphic mod like iCEnhancer but with the sepia almost white and black filter that original gta 4 has, makes the atmosphere really really depressing in a way that i love it With that said im impressed by how good the mod community is for gta 4, they are really talented and passionated about this game, is amazing and beautiful how the game looks with these mods (Srry for bad english, is not my first language)
My video probably didn’t show it off so well, maybe, but that’s what iCE 4 is aiming to do. The whole point of its visuals is to replicate the depressing aura that GTA 4 has due to its dark storyline. I will be releasing more videos soon, so I hope it will show some more of that :) The time lapse doesn’t do enough justice. And yes! The passion many of these people have for GTA 4 is extraordinary :)
@@Sergiuss555 oh yeah iCEnhancer is by far the best mod that tries to mantein the soul of gta iv, but personally i think still needs a little of more depressing and desaturated colors, but is just my personal opinion, iCEnhancer is the best and my favorite graphic mod
Heyyy, GTAHeavyImpact! Thank you so much, my friend ❤️ I know how invested you are into GTA IV. If you ever get the chance, then you should definitely try both of these out! You’ll be so impressed and it’ll feel like you’re playing a whole new game!
Los Santos Weather is an AMAZING visual overhaul to GTA IV featured in my latest video 👌 I’m sure you’ll love iCEnhancer 4.0 the same way you do LSW! Free version coming soon.
That’s what iCE 4 is shooting for with this visual overhaul! It’s maybe not so apparent with the time lapse, but it shoots for the dark tone rather than the vibrant colors! 💕 Thank you for the support!
RevIVe mod is jaw dropping. Animated vegetation looks amazing. But most importantly it is supposed to introduce a new texture loading method and better shadows. When is it getting released ?!
Jaw-dropping is the right term for this! I love the animated vegetation and the upscaled textures, makes the game pop even more :) And as of right now, I am unsure, but I believe the developer is working hard on it right now (since he's solo-ing it) so hopefully soon!
Aj you took me to another level of play GTA IV with your other video to making it realistic. Took me 2 days to get it done and now I saw this video 😂. Guess I'll have to start over 😂😂. Nice work mate ;)
Hahaha, thank you so much! I'm so glad that you've taken some time to explore some of my other videos that are up on the channel! I hope you join the journey on iCEnhancer 4! It's coming out soon :)

Amazing how the NPC scripting, AI and traffic in this game is leagues ahead of Cyberpunk. This game is now 16 years old, and was probably in development for years prior, but somehow surpasses the scripting and AI of Cyberpunk.
Looks gorgeous! So you say they’re aiming to capture the original’s color scheme and atmosphere, right? I noticed that night time looks vastly different. It looks beautiful, but has a yellow/orange tint to it as opposed to the blueish colors the original mostly had at night. Does night time always look like in this video?
its not the super bad red sky that some people got in the early days. just the red tinted dark sky. instead of the sky being dark purple or blue its black with a slight red tint. its been in pretty much every enb except for the ones that use sweetfx to oversaturate the colors (not a good solution) 2:20 is an example @@NotAJ
RevIVe has not done that, but a recent shader fix performed by Parallellines0451 managed to patch that horrendous z-fighting issue! What a legendary feature to have been included in these shader fixes! Link is below: github.com/Parallellines0451/GTAIV.ShaderFixesCollection/releases Should be noted - these shader fixes do not work with ENBs (not right now, at least).
Yo I tried to install the newest Zolinka-Patch 7.65 on my modded GTA 4 with Ice Enhancer 4.0 and revive on patch 1.0.4.0, but my game didn't start at all. Do I just have to put everything into the root folder of GTA IV, or do some files need to go somewhere special? After removing the files provided by the Zolinka-Patch 7.65 the game started and worked normally. (I obviously didn't install the folder for the extra Menu options for versions 1.0.7.0 / 1.0.8.0)
Hey man i know that this might be off topic, but do you know any sort of way to make iCenhancer 3.0 less dark at night? at times its become too dark like the 2:32 and 5:33 part. Which causes reflections in my monitor screen making me unable to properly see the game. I'd greatly appreciate some help man :) i hope im not a disturbance.
Honestly, if I remember correctly, if you click [Shift] and [Enter] at the same time, the ENB menu appears. Look for something regarding “night light intensity”, something along those lines, and adjust how you see fit! Should work :) Higher the value, the brighter it is. The lower the value, the darker it is.
@NotAJ I'm very impressed. Honestly, i never played gta iv yet, but this preview is very good. I think, when this is released, i need it. But what requirements does it have? Do i need a new cpu/gpu, or can i run it on older systems? i5 3570 / GTX 1650 4GB / RAM:16GB Gta v runs smooth (60fps) with middle/high settings on my system. Greetings Stephan
Hello, Stephan. Thanks for commenting! Yeah, the mods are truly beautiful, aren’t they? The system specifications you have should be able to run the mods. The frame rate may not be as good as the way I have it in-game, so you’ll have to adjust some GTA in-game settings I’m sure, but it shouldn’t be a huge difference between what I have here vs. what you have.
Hey, Einfach! 😁 So there’s one LCPDFR version that works (somewhat) on Patch 1.0.4.0. and that’s LCPDFR 0.91. That’s a decade old, but it’s remarkably an awesome mod either way still. The newer versions of LCPDFR works on patches 1.0.7.0. only to my understanding.
The very first frame of your intro when clicking into the video is a massive epileptic trigger. I don't have epilepsy but on a large screen I almost just got it.
Hey bro, can you use the DVXK thing with this? was told it wont work with ENBs. Also the project 2dFx it makes my game look weird, idk the lights in the distance are all like different colours and idk if its meant to be like that.
Hello there! 👋 To my understanding, DXVK has a little complication with certain ENBs. However, to some extent, it does work with iCEnhancer 4.0. Don’t be surprised if you do come across those ‘potential issues’ after getting your build and using it with DXVK. But if you don’t, then you’re in good hands! And which edition of Project 2DFX are you using?
Depends on which ENB you use and how you adjust the settings to your liking! This one definitely sets the standard, in my opinion. There’s another one out there that I’ve been wanting to try called “Liberty Visual”. It’s absolutely remarkable. I might suggest iCEnhancer 3.0 (or Natural), CryENB V3, Excellent ENB, etc.
when it comes to texture I am having my Nvidia GPU override them with it's second by second upscaled textures so I don't exactly need to put in HD textures (the textures would be 720p since at the time that'd be the starting HD resolution)
i feel like the game would get back the original tone (yet keep the new graphics) if you manually adjusted the saturation from the in-game settings, no? Would love to know if you tried that.
Can't say I have but this adds its own touch of darkness to it. You can actually adjust a few things, such as color temperature, gamma, and saturation with the mod.
I know it seems like a necro comment, but hey, the trailer dropped today so I want to revisit other ones. While the upgrades are awesome I do think removing that specific tint is a bad idea. It gave that game its character. Any chance I could keep it with those mods?
The trailer drop was something else, wasn’t it? It’s possible to do that, yes. As long as you adjust the gamma and control the vignette in the ENB settings, you can retain that specific tint 👌
No thing such as a dumb question 😁 You can purchase a subscription for early access to Project RevIVe alpha stage via. Patreon. Check the description for more details.
I am unable to say. I know that the team who’s developing it have been working their hardest to fix a lot of pending issues. They want everything to sail smoothly before a final version gets released (or before users have issues).
@@NotAJ what I meant is the color of the graphics It looks very bluish and saturated at some instances Maybe like a custom timecyc mod which makes it less saturated would fit the storyline This ice enhancer 4 would definitely suit tbogt but not Iv
I think it’s because I put a pretty warm filter and not so much low-gamma. There’s actually a few tools to adjust the color with iCEnhancer 4. It’s more customizable than the previous editions :)
The graphics MOD called iCEnhancer 4 is my modification of iCEnhancer 3. This MOD has been released on my channel since January 29, 2022. Primarily, it improves lighting and amplifies reflections. Fixed a rendering glitch caused by amplification of reflected light over time and an issue where event scenes would jump. There are many other things, but the most obvious one is that I personally don't like my taillights reflecting on the road, so I turn them off.
I’m not going to continue this discussion any further because it makes no sense. The developer spends his time and does his job to make the mod with a team of people. Call your graphics mod what you want to call it. But don’t come here taking credibility of other people’s work when you know that many content creators have been exposed to the way how he makes it. And I’m not the only one. So as far as I’m concerned, this isn’t continuing. Have a nice day.
No release date was really announced, but there is a lot of exceptional work that has been done over the past 3 years - it is bound to be released soon.
almost makes me want to replay gta 4 with this when it comes out but then i realised that the pc port is still a bitch and a half to deal with even without installing mods and honestly its not worth wasting time on it
I can see why you'd say that, but remember, it's only $20 for the early access. By release, it's all going to be free of charge. And the early access is mainly used for three things, (a) of course for your benefit and enjoyment, (b) to help test for the developer and see if things aren't working correctly or missing, and (c) to help support their development. Especially since these two projects themselves have small teams (where one of them is just a solo-teamed project), it can take a long time and it's probably difficult to scope out for any issues. So that's why this is kind of worth it if you're in it to help anywhere. Some people don't do all a, b, and c together, but I do.
Any ENB generally doesn't support the Complete Edition. You have to remember that this was made way back then (a very long time ago). Certain mods won't support future editions.
In a sense, it does. Except from icelaglace: What Project RevIVe does is that it “improved the quality and performance of the game. Rework of all meshes, new texture loading method, up-scaled textures, new vegetation models and textures, new objects around the map to add life to the game, overhauled night lighting, farther draw distances, etc.”. There’s a lot more of course but I’d join the Discord to find more information.
Both mods were on their alpha stages at least 2 years ago now, and I doubt they will ever be published. What a shame it is to have mods behind a paywall.
I want to make sure you understand that these mods aren't behind a paywall. Yes, you can donate (via. a membership) to obtain early access to both mods. But these aren't mods that are finished, there's a lot of work that needs to be poured into them. If you were in their Discords, then you'd realize that as they're pretty communicative with their fanbase and subscribers. Both mods are moving along much further this year, I'd say.
You'll have to purchase early access by donating to the creators. However, these will come out eventually. iCEnhancer 4 is closest to launching at some point. But if you wanted early access, check out the information in the description of this video.
That’s very good you mention that. This graphics mod, iCEnhancer 4, is actually supposed to restore that ‘tone’ of GTA IV. However, a temperature, gamma, and motion blur slider was included. Of course, being me, I’m no fan of the motion blur 😂 But I did modify the gamma and the temperature, making it in such a way that it looks colorful. The default settings definitely bring that dark atmosphere you speak of. If you look up some other videos, or some videos I’ll have up soon if the newest build, then you’ll see how the dark atmosphere was restored in this version of iCEnhancer.
Since iCEnhancer 4 and RevIVe are currently in their alpha stages, I am unable to do a tutorial video on it. If you’re a Ko-Fi subscriber or a patron for their early access, then go to their Discord and request for support - it’s very instantaneous :)
Patience is the one thing that makes every aspect of anything turn into something high quality. And sometimes waiting for a long time is worth it. In this case, I believe that.
Am i the only one on the internet who's game runs BETTER with an ENB installed? I'm just curious because, typically, you hear the opposite. Not only that, my game now loads in like 30 seconds as apposed to the vanilla games 5 minutes.
Great video but it sucks ass that most of them only work for 1.0.4.0 which has no dlcs. 1.0.7.0 and 1.0.8.0 has dlc with mod support but all the enb look worse. And the compelete edition is a modding wasteland. The modding community is stuck in the past its not even funny anymore
Thank you for the kind words about the video, first of all :) In the defense of these two mods specifically is that graphical enhancements, specifically ENBs, have always been well-optimized and greatly fabricated for the 1040 patch. You're right that ENBs do not look as good on 1070/1080 as they do with 1040. But that's GTA IV for you, there's a generational transition between the shaders and how they've been changed between the multiple patches - that being 1040 vs. 1070 vs. 1080.
GTA 4 has one of the most dedicated communities, to the point that they're going to remaster the game because Rockstar won't.
You said these words better than the way I said it in the video ❤️ #keepGTAIValive
But there are some graphics which remove the dark aspect of Gta 4 and makes it too brighter.

I think it’s because I put a pretty warm filter and not so much low-gamma. There’s actually a few tools to adjust the color with iCEnhancer 4. It’s more customizable than the previous editions :)
@@NotAJ hmm interesting
The best GTA game became some better 😎
I couldn't have agreed more, this here is an understatement.
Will this work on a pc setup having a Ryzen 7 5800H and an RTX 3060 6GB Graphics? My pc also has 16GB RAM/1TB SSD?
It should most certainly run, although I’m unsure of anything about AMD CPUs.
@@NotAJ If I'm lucky enough it might. Anyways thanks for the reply
I have the same setup lol
Are you using 1040 version of GTA4?
Yes, that would be correct!
how long does this run for before crashing?
I’ve found that iCE 4 with all of these mods installed with it never crashes at all 👌 not in my experience.
The graphics MOD called iCEnhancer 4 is my modification of iCEnhancer 3.
This MOD has been released on my channel since January 29, 2022.
Primarily, it improves lighting and amplifies reflections.
Fixed a rendering glitch caused by amplification of reflected light over time and an issue where event scenes would jump.
There are many other things, but the most obvious one is that I personally don't like my taillights reflecting on the road, so I turn them off.
This is iCEnhancer 4 created by icelaglace, who is also the creator of iCEnhancer 3. So I have no idea what you’re on about.
@@NotAJ
When was iCEnhancer 4 released?
Where can I find the oldest story mode video using it?
@GTA_modder_CBX I thought it was yours?…. Now it isn’t?….
@@NotAJ
Can you find the oldest video other than mine?
where did you get the mod?
I’m not going to continue this discussion any further because it makes no sense. The developer spends his time and does his job to make the mod with a team of people. Call your graphics mod what you want to call it. But don’t come here taking credibility of other people’s work when you know that many content creators have been exposed to the way how he makes it. And I’m not the only one. So as far as I’m concerned, this isn’t continuing. Have a nice day.
Im getting huge jitters when using icehancer and if i use fusion fix with it everything is to dark
FusionFix never works with an ENB. I would ask more questions about this in iCEnhancer's Discord.
Wasn't v4.0 supposed to come out years ago?
No release date was really announced, but there is a lot of exceptional work that has been done over the past 3 years - it is bound to be released soon.
Did you combine both these mods?
Yes, I did :)
@@NotAJhow did you did that? I have done that but it crashes
Imagine playing this at 4k 60fps on ps5
Oooooh 😎
Is those mods compatible with downgrader???
almost makes me want to replay gta 4 with this when it comes out but then i realised that the pc port is still a bitch and a half to deal with even without installing mods and honestly its not worth wasting time on it
There are mods to make this port playable, but it’s understandable that from hindsight it looks terrible lol
Wow thats amazing i have gtx 1050 and i7 8565u 16ram will it work please answer:)
Jonny really is Niko.
What do you mean, boss?
Please can you tell me how to download this is it easy to do? Does it work on any android hendheld gaming Devices such as a Retroid filp?
are ice 4 and revive used together?
Yes!
ice 4 is still behind a paywall unfortunately , i have a special kind of hate for paid modding@@NotAJ
GTA 4 THE BEST FOREVER
I agree with you wholeheartedly ❤
what is the release date to play it for free?
Is it compatible with DXVK ?
As of now, yes!
To try both it's about 20 bucks, I don't really know if it's worth it tbh
I can see why you'd say that, but remember, it's only $20 for the early access. By release, it's all going to be free of charge. And the early access is mainly used for three things, (a) of course for your benefit and enjoyment, (b) to help test for the developer and see if things aren't working correctly or missing, and (c) to help support their development. Especially since these two projects themselves have small teams (where one of them is just a solo-teamed project), it can take a long time and it's probably difficult to scope out for any issues. So that's why this is kind of worth it if you're in it to help anywhere. Some people don't do all a, b, and c together, but I do.
@@NotAJ Thank you for the response, I'll definitely follow process and maybe try at least one of these early on, who knows.
Is there a mod that ONLY enhance the clarity of the game? Removing the blurriness, graininess, and shimmering of the game.
Hmm, I'm not sure of a mod that can fully do all three of these things. You could try doing a timecycle or maybe use a ReShade of some kind.
What I want to know: is why don't modders try to make them work for the complete edition?
Any ENB generally doesn't support the Complete Edition. You have to remember that this was made way back then (a very long time ago). Certain mods won't support future editions.
@NotAJ What's an ENB
ENBs are the foundation to most visual modification, sort of like the one shown in this video :)
at first I thought Project RevIVe was going to completely optimize the game where Rockstar failed
In a sense, it does.
Except from icelaglace: What Project RevIVe does is that it “improved the quality and performance of the game. Rework of all meshes, new texture loading method, up-scaled textures, new vegetation models and textures, new objects around the map to add life to the game, overhauled night lighting, farther draw distances, etc.”. There’s a lot more of course but I’d join the Discord to find more information.
By joining the Discord, you can find what other optimizations it has based on the attempts Rockstar tried or failed on.
@@NotAJ k well that I know of ICe 3 and P RevIVe are on a pay to access until their done and idk how many people are working on RevIVe
@cydragon2.099 It’s only one singular developer who may have a resource to refer to every now and then. iCE 4 will be releasing free soon.
I just bought my pc and my first game is gta iv can you tell me how to install the mods ❤:)
You can join my Discord and ask for help there if you'd like!
@@NotAJ ok thx :)
Both mods were on their alpha stages at least 2 years ago now, and I doubt they will ever be published. What a shame it is to have mods behind a paywall.
I want to make sure you understand that these mods aren't behind a paywall. Yes, you can donate (via. a membership) to obtain early access to both mods. But these aren't mods that are finished, there's a lot of work that needs to be poured into them. If you were in their Discords, then you'd realize that as they're pretty communicative with their fanbase and subscribers. Both mods are moving along much further this year, I'd say.
can you make an installation tutorial with this mod?
How to fix black rain drops on screen?
Is it possible to use ice and revive mods together?
Yeah, of course.
Is icehancer 4 out yet
It is planned to be released very soon actually. Just some final touches and bug fixes.
@@NotAJ it will be free or not ??
@TheKiliku Yes, my friend, it will be free :)
@@NotAJ i ask because its been 4 year we wait bro
Is the taxi bug fixable?
It is - with the Simple Traffic Loader mod by ItsClonkAndre.
which one is the best ?
how can i apply these to my game ?
I am sorry? What do you mean?
@@NotAJ i mean
how can i download these mods and use them in my game
which one is the better one
You'll have to purchase early access by donating to the creators. However, these will come out eventually. iCEnhancer 4 is closest to launching at some point. But if you wanted early access, check out the information in the description of this video.
@@NotAJ ty bro 🤝🏼
No problem!@@GhostWarrier00
i love this ngame
Yes!
Para que versiones de GTA es?
Es para la versión 1040 ❤
Just makes it look like every other game.
This is GTA IV. It has graphics. The graphics mod is used to enhance it. So now GTA IV is enhanced. That's I guess what it's doing? lol
best gr4phics mod
For real.
How to download this enb
Check the description on how to attain them.
Is this Working for Complete Edition as well ?
Only on Patch 1040 as of right now 👌 it’s a good patch as well.
The strong colours do take away from the atmosphere the game is meant to have.
That’s very good you mention that. This graphics mod, iCEnhancer 4, is actually supposed to restore that ‘tone’ of GTA IV. However, a temperature, gamma, and motion blur slider was included. Of course, being me, I’m no fan of the motion blur 😂 But I did modify the gamma and the temperature, making it in such a way that it looks colorful. The default settings definitely bring that dark atmosphere you speak of. If you look up some other videos, or some videos I’ll have up soon if the newest build, then you’ll see how the dark atmosphere was restored in this version of iCEnhancer.
Could this mod run on a gtx 1060 6gb or is my Pc gonna explode lol?
The GTX 1060 is a good card for GTA IV, so it should!
My only wish to PC version of GTA 4 is removing the z-fighting completly.
Don't we all? The z-fighting in GTA 4 is ANNOYING. That in itself is just an understatement. I hope someone can help achieve this.
how can i get that mods ?
It’s currently early access, links are in the description :)
plz make a tutorial video about the mods you used in the video
Since iCEnhancer 4 and RevIVe are currently in their alpha stages, I am unable to do a tutorial video on it. If you’re a Ko-Fi subscriber or a patron for their early access, then go to their Discord and request for support - it’s very instantaneous :)
does work for episode of liberty city TLAD and TBOG glad if you replay❤
It does not as of right now, since it is only in alpha and is currently compatible for 1040.
Graphics are magnífico 🤌🏻🌃
I couldn’t have agreed with you more on that, KING 💎 The game truly looks like a complete masterpiece with these two additions.
I already died waiting for those two mods
Patience is the one thing that makes every aspect of anything turn into something high quality. And sometimes waiting for a long time is worth it. In this case, I believe that.
@@NotAJ truer words have never been said
but I already died so I can't tell you that
@@Sciever Hahahahaha 😂
Honestly these mods can only go so far, the game should be straight up ported to a new engine. Euphoria would be a bitch lol
But the mods are by far impressive! But yes, a remaster would be sick.
Looks like watch dogs 1 now 🤔
It’s not surprising that you’d say that. The creators themselves love Watch Dogs 😁
@@NotAJ replying after 1 year that's amazing dude 😅👍🏻
Hahaha, thanks bro! I try to respond to every single one of them if I can 😄
Am i the only one on the internet who's game runs BETTER with an ENB installed? I'm just curious because, typically, you hear the opposite. Not only that, my game now loads in like 30 seconds as apposed to the vanilla games 5 minutes.
It is typically the opposite but it is nice to hear that your game runs better with an ENB :)
Any anti-aliasing mod?
I don’t know of any type of AA mod, but the one thing that improved the AA is enabling it in my NVIDIA control panel! :) Try that!
Can you make a video on how to download the pls :)
When iCEnhancer 4 and RevIVe release in the future, I will.
Great video but it sucks ass that most of them only work for 1.0.4.0 which has no dlcs. 1.0.7.0 and 1.0.8.0 has dlc with mod support but all the enb look worse. And the compelete edition is a modding wasteland. The modding community is stuck in the past its not even funny anymore
Thank you for the kind words about the video, first of all :) In the defense of these two mods specifically is that graphical enhancements, specifically ENBs, have always been well-optimized and greatly fabricated for the 1040 patch. You're right that ENBs do not look as good on 1070/1080 as they do with 1040. But that's GTA IV for you, there's a generational transition between the shaders and how they've been changed between the multiple patches - that being 1040 vs. 1070 vs. 1080.
i just downloaded all these mods, installed them, then realized i downgraded to the wrong version when i went to the comments.
