Last month, we shared the news of an unofficial Bloodborne 60fps patch that was made public and now, another fan-made patch is making news for another game: GTA Online. Modder t0st created a fix that reduced the game's loading times by up to 70%. Rockstar also took notice of this fix and investigated it further.

"After a thorough investigation, we can confirm that player t0st did, in fact, reveal an aspect of the game code related to load times for the PC version of GTA Online that could be improved," the company told PCGamer. "As a result of these investigations, we have made some changes that will be implemented in a forthcoming title update."

After this statement, the fix's creator, t0st, said that they awarded $10,000 through Rockstar's Bug Bounty program.

The GTA Online update that includes this fix for loading issues is live as of today.

I cannot believe rockstar listened to someone that wasn't from a take two board room

Well that's very cool! Hopefully other companies follow suit. There's a lot of cool mods that actually improve stability and over gameplay in different games.

This is pretty cool. Hopefully Rockstar would also change their archaic P2P server model which is a huge security liability for players.

I wish Valve would do the same for TF2...

How embarrassing that a modder fixed it for them (I'm assuming without even seeing the source code), when Rockstar should know the workings inside and out since they made the thing lol.

-edit. but great of course they took the fix and paid too!

 

[AshuraZro]

Good on them to pay this out proper.

There's an HD texture pack for Muramasa's Wii release. It looks pretty good!

But I agree, more releases for more availability and visibility!

Don't you have to disable cpu cores to play that since it can't handle too many cpu cores or is that a different bad port?

yeah to finish a mission you need to do that or set the game at under 60 fps or it won't work well.

DXVK is a good solution to fix the micro-stutter but there are still the textures flickering issue

So I need to cap my framerate and disable some of my fucking cpu
