To obtain better support, you should join a Lutris log to your post.

How to create a Lutris log: 1. first close Lutris completely 2. Then, open your terminal application, execute lutris -d (if you use standalone Lutris) or flatpak run net.lutris.Lutris -d (if you use Flatpak Lutris) and then try to reproduce your issue.

After that, you need to copy the ENTIRE output in the terminal and share it with us (all of it). Then post it on ad-free paste service: https://paste.gloriouseggroll.tv/ or https://pastebin.com/

Sounds like driver issues. According to an AI prompt (i.e. take this with a grain of salt) you should be able to fix it on your current setup by tweaking your Lutris runner settings:

GTA IV uses DirectX 9, which runs through DXVK under Linux. Missing face textures or invisible character models happen when DXVK handles frame latency or VRAM allocation incorrectly on the PS4 GPU.

Open Lutris, right-click GTA IV, and select Configure.
Go to the Game options tab and open the Game folder.
Create a plain text file inside the main GTA IV folder and name it dxvk.conf.

Add these lines to the file and save it:

d3d9.maxFrameLatency = 1
dxgi.maxFrameLatency = 1

I don't know if this will work but it's worth a try?

As far as I know, the gpu of the PS4 doesnt support Vulkan so you are stuck with OpenGL and basically all games require an alternative to directx on Linux. The pain is not worth the results bro
