GTA V Verify Game Cache How-To

So I get the ERR_GFX_D3D_INIT Error when I play GTA V, Have gotten it several times now in a few days, and before I didnt get one in atleast 50 hours of gameplay.

 

People suggested verifying game cache, but I didnt get the game on steam so i had to do it a different way, Here's how you do it:

 

*Open CMD

 

*Type: cd c:\Program Files\Rockstar Games\Grand Theft Auto V      NOTE: If you installed it in a different directory, enter that one instead.

*Hit Enter

 

*Now type: GTAVLauncher.exe -verify

*Hit Enter

 

Now Social Club should show up and start verify your game.

Or, just so people are aware, if you're on steam: Right Click -> Properties -> Local Files -> Verify Game Cache

I should hope everyone knows how to do that on steam, but i wouldn't be surprised if they don't.

Here's an even bigger guide how to do it.

I did delete those 3 files and then verified and now it seems to work for me, atleast for the 30 minutes I played!
