- "Allow 8-bit textures" in GSdx may help with speed a bit more and maybe reduce the Vram slowdowns.

Trivia
- Original names: グランツーリスモ4 プロローグ版 (SCPS-15055) & (SCPS-19304) & (PBPX-95523), 跑車浪漫旅4:序章版 (SCAJ-20066), 그란 투리스모 4 프롤로그 (SCKA-20022)
- Also known as Gran Turismo 4: Prologue Edition (JP), Gran Turismo 4: "Prologue"
Known Issues
Heavy crashing
- Status: Active
- Type: Severe
- Description: Crashes pretty often. This happens because of spikes in VRam use.
- Workaround:
- In recent PCSX2 GIT revisions as of May 7th, 2016, VRAM spikes have been greatly reduced. Go To Config > Video (GS) > Plugin Settings and disable "Large Framebuffer" to reduce the spikes even further.
- If you get lots of crashes during license tests use a lower internal resolution in GSdx.
- Multisample anti-aliasing(MSAA) can cause the game to crash a lot. Make sure the MSAA level is set to 0 in the GSdx Configure Hacks menu(only applies to Direct3D HW renderers).
- In Windows XP, even in native resolution, you may get instant crashes when starting races if you do not have enough VRAM. Using a custom resolution lower than 512x512 seems to help.
