(hx) 01:59 AM CET - Dec,16 2008 - Post a comment / read (1)
The patch promised by Rockstar Games last Saturday is now available. Start your game and connect to LIVE to trigger the download. The patch is 32.6MB, takes a few minutes to install, and contains a variety of fixes including the following: - A fix to the crash after legal screen that some German customers were reporting.
- Numerous improvements to the video editor: Smarter naming of videos, improved rendering quality, better fx during replays.
- Fix to bowling while using certain sensitive mice.
- Fix for ATI 1900 shadows.
- Overall savings to memory.
- Graphic improvements to particle systems and mirrors.
- Multiplayer character settings are preserved.
- Support for DirectInput controllers.
There is apparently an issue with the new patch that is causing problems for some gamers's controllers (both Mouse/Keyboard and Xbox 360 Windows controller). Rockstar has posted up a workaround over at the GTAForums.com message board.

site admin guy your link to this news item is dead. I think it should be http://www.ggmania.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=13969 not http://www.ggmania.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=.

The patch did nothing for me in terms of freezing. It's the only problem I have running the game and it's irritating as hell. I'm nearly done a mission and pow I'm froze up. I figured out with a little reading its a memory leak and I think I've fixed things setting a memory limit. I have a end task shortcut. I don't recall if it froze last night. :?
