"Tap [space] repeatedly to climb up on chopper..."

Who the heck thought this was clever idea?

I for myself can't tap that fast. It's ridiculous.

WINDOWS 10 INFO. (Same as Video but Adjusted to follow the new steps needed in Windows 10.)

Alt-TAB out of the game. Right-click on your taskbar and select "Task manager" Find "Grand Theft Auto IV (32bit) (4)" and right-click on it. Click Expand then right-click on "GTAIV" and select "Go To Details" Right-click again on GTAIV.exe that should be highlighted and click "Set Affinity" Uncheck <All Processors> and then click only one (CPU 0) is fine but only one is wanted. then go back and "Repeatedly Tapping Space" or "A" on an XBOne Controller will now work to get you up into the Heli...

The affinity trick + a macro to spam space was how I just finished the game. The CPU + 3090FE combo was still too much for the game (even at 8K!), but at least it slowed it down juuuust enough for the macro + me spamming space to do the job.

Cheers! :D

Come on! That is a hyperbole statement. There are a few issues but the game is still playable on PC via Steam. I am enjoying the game for a few months now.

By the way, another simpler way to fix the issue is to enable vsync and limit the fps to 60. I faced no such issues but for some minor annoying microstuttering.

Thank you that was driving me crazy. Annoying that I had to finish it on low res

[Dormento]

if you have a controller, you can combine tapping X (or square if it's a playstation controller) and spacebar to climb up the chopper. works fine

Fix this already!

In the remaster by grove street games it is!

[PUNISHED "VENOM" RAT]

it works but then again if you fail the helicopter ride you need to do the whole affinity check again

Are they kidding me? So I'm supposed to play it on one core at 15 fps?
