Game is borked due to EA anti cheat
EA added kernel level anti cheat so as of now i am unable to launch the game. I can't even play the single player. All i get is a message saying "Wine, Proton, and Steam Deck are not supported by this application!".

Anisotropic filtering was not working properly. This can be fixed by installing the "GTA4 DXVK" mod.
The game works great. But for a better experience i would recomend installing the mods: "FusionFix", "Radio Restoration (with split radio)" and "Gta 4 DXVK".
The settings menu does not work properly. This is mostly noticable in the advanced graphics setting.
For the game to work properly you have to change the proton version. Either for an older one or use ProtonGE.
There is a weird bug going on with rockstars games launcher.
The game won't launch even with the suggested "SteamDeck=1 %command%". I have also tried multiple proton versions. No matter what i do i get stuck on the rockstar games launcher and if i wait long enough it will tell me it cant launch the game because it's already running.

PostFX set to "Very high" or "Ultra" will cause blurry cutscenes
WIth the latest proton experimental [Bleeding-edge] the game will launch consistently without getting stuck in rockstar games launcher. There is no need for the "SteamDeck=1" flag anymore. The single player is working fine but PostFX set to "Very high" or "Ultra" will cause blurry cutscenes. To fix it simply turn it "off" or to "High". If you log into multiplayer the game will kick you after a while because of the anticheat.
Sometimes the game crashes when joining a lobby.
On first boot the game would kick me. So i had to change to proton experimental and check the game files for it to work. Other than that the game runs great besides ocasionally crashing when joining a lobby.

After 6.2.1 the game would crash on launch. But changing proton to experiemental bleeding edge fixed the problem. You can change it by going to steam library -> proton experimental -> properties -> betas -> bleeding-edge. For best performance i recomend using gamemode (Dont forget to your user to the gamemode group) and disable nvidia reflex. Nvidia reflex caused performance issues a couple of updates ago (it would cause stutter and halve my framerate). I haven't tested it on the newer version but if you have performance issues this might help.
Meant to say 5.6.1
Not working after update 5.12
LD_PRELOAD="" PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 SDL_VIDEODRIVER='windows' gamemoderun mangohud %command%
Won't launch. Get the error "The program encountered C0000022 at address 014C6D71 during initialization".
