I'm no expert, but most games that I personally have ran (and most runs from this game) typically prefer 45-60 fps, but if it can get higher its obv better. I've never seen 480p get accepted for any game, so id probably say 720-1080. Correct me if I'm dead wrong, mods
@Scriblestingray Frame-rate is more important than quality.
@Resi I see 480p videos all the time. My runs for other Grand Theft Auto games are 480p 25fps. Anything above 720p 30fps is extra.
Here are Grand Theft Auto IV's rules: ------The run must be contained in a single upload (no multipart uploads or missing sections) [LOCALLY RECORD!] ------In-game sound effects are audible on the video and are not delayed ------Video resolution is at least 360p ------The video is not too dark or too bright to see the run clearly ------Video is in full color (no black and white) ------Video file framerate is at least 25 FPS with no excessive stuttering or frame drops for extended periods of time ------The video begins prior to the first black frame and ends after the first frame of the final cutscene (Include at least a few frames of the first/final white splash screen and at least a few of the final cutscene) ------Everything the runner was able to see in-game during the run must be visible in the submission video (no cropping of the game feed in post)
@SpeedyFolf as expected, I was very VERY incorrect. Though I guess this is to be expected as I was mainly basing it off my WD speedruns. Although those are also old Gen, in case that could make any sort of difference
