remcofromnl Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Patch 1.0.2.0 This new patch improves my performance ingame a little. It feels smoother while playing. The only thing I dont understand is that this patch already caused me some troubles in the past 30 minutes. The problems I noticed after installing the patch: 1: The ammo counter in the right upper corner of my screen disappeared in Freemode (Airport) (BUG) 2: My game already crashed more times it has ever done in this past 30 minutes ive played with this update. After connecting to a multiplayer server it already crashed 3 times on the starting game loading text. Did anyone else experienced the same problem with the ammo count and the crashes already? Or did you noticed any other bugs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drunk Russian 9 Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 I am currently experiencing a horrible audio bug which harshens the audio and makes it skip as if it's lagging. I tried restarting, then the new driver process, nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShroomsScott Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 I also have the issue where I cannot see how much ammo my weapon has. I have this problem in singleplayer mode and multiplayer mode. I have tried different combinations of graphics settings and it didn't help at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tombbeli123 Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Oh rockstar, why. WHY?! This patch only gave more problems and glitches. Only a little performance boost. -.- Rockstar "kill" this game. We must only hope, that someday this game works well for everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeeter Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Bug. Pressing space at the start of a cutscene ends it but the whole scenes audio will play during gameplay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sojd Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 (edited) I have a sound problem since applying this patch. Tiny random skips in all sound in GTA4 now, cant really play with it like that. On the plus side the game feels much better now that slow/fast lag/stutter issue has been fixed. I played it last night without a problem, since rebooting I've had a sound issue (with no other game but GTA4). Retail 1.0.2.0, XP32, latest Creative sound card drivers (which I installed before in a desperate attempt to fix the lag issue in GTA4!) Edit: Sound is ok again, no idea why. Slow/fast lag/stutter issue is still there. Specs: AMD X2 3800+ @ 2.6GHz [939], ATI 3870, 2GB RAM, benchmark @ 27fps.

Rotel Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Audio is out of sync with the video in the cutscenes since the patch. Just a tiny bit, but enough to make the lip-syncing look wrong. Might be out of sync in the game itself as well - not as easy to tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWEETSAPRIK Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 (edited) All kinds of objects are missing from the game since installing the most recent patch. Everything worked fine before this patch, this patch didn't fix any issues for me, it didn't really improve anything for me, the only change (that isn't negligible) is this problem with the missing objects. I don't have any "before" pictures of these areas, but anyone who's familiar with these locations on other platforms or pre-patch should be able to see what's missing. In the first two there should be cones and other objects, in the third there should be metal gate things, and I think some benches in that oval in the background (but I'm not 100% on that.) Is there any known way to fix this? I mean I hope this is a bug, but at this point nothing would surprise me. I've also noticed some "popin" type effect that wasn't there before the patch, but it's more like I'm seeing low quality textures getting switched out for high quality ones as I get closer to something, only long after they should have changed. That's not as big a deal to me as the missing objects though. (EDIT) Upon re-reading the thread I posted that in, the user ld13, posted a screen of the area in my third pic (pre-patch) for comparison. Edited January 24, 2009 by Sweets PяopagaиdaIиc.

SWEETSAPRIK Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 Sorry for the double post. Is this not happening to everyone? If it isn't, any idea why it is happening to the people it's happening to? Any idea how to fix this? I'm still trying to be optimistic and hope that this is a bug, and wasn't intended. PяopagaиdaIиc.

nba4life Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 Hey i've got problems with my gameplay and audio. both of them lag almost every 5-10 seconds and my frame rate is dramatically low with an average of 13 fps after applying this new R* patch. Before updating i played it with 20 fps and i don't have any problems with my pc's hardware or software everything goes as smeared as possible . so please give me some advices about how to solve this one thanks.

l-b Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 (edited) Thanks to R* for releasing one more patch, may the support and enhancements never end. Well, I also encountered the problem that I could not use the ingame internet anymore after applying patch 2 that some were whining about. Some info first: I am on a Core 2 Duo T2500, 2 GB RAM, Geforce Go 7600 (256 MB), Windows XP (x86). I am not registered at the Social Club (will get that, when I get a decent enough machine to run multiplayer) and I have used the no DVD patch (the cutlery one, to be vague) since short after I got my GTA. (I have the UK version.) The last mission I completed is "Taking in the Trash" Remove the modified programs and restore the old ones Put disc in drive "Repair" my GTA installation with the installer. Install GfW Live again Apply patch 2 again Run it And it worked. Only downside is that now my drive will spin not quietly at all again. I'm off to LC! Edit: Or not. I installed the new certified nvidia driver and rebooted to a bluescreen. After that: error WS10 which is supposed to be fixed with moving some of the Windows Live files. I am in reinstall hell now.

ld13 Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 (EDIT) Upon re-reading the thread I posted that in, the user ld13, posted a screen of the area in my third pic (pre-patch) for comparison. I decided to leave the new 1.0.2 patch alone for now ... because I like the game as it is at the moment and I am rather fond of all my objects - So now I'm being forced by GFWL to play 'offline' just because I have not applied the new patch. In any case, if anyone wants me to post more screens of specific areas for comparison etc etc, gimme a shout via PM and I'll get one up asap.

HakuAnime Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Here is a bug reported by another member on the forums. I haven't had time to reproduce it though so i'm not sure if its legit or not. Anyway, here it is: There is another tiny bug with patch 1.0.2.0: When I drive a Banshee into of the two pay 'n spray garages in Algonquin it comes out silver or grey. ALWAYS. No more colors. ^^ It doesn't happen with other cars (as far as I can tell) and it doesn't happen with other pay 'n spray garages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
