OK, what has "The Los Santos Summer Special" update (1.51) changed?

[Naicox]

Welcome!

 

Since @Gridl0k didn't feel like making one of these, I kindly decided to take the lead and make this topic. You know how this goes, as soon as you start playing tomorrow when the update drops, post any change you find.

This topic is currently under development with the objective of improving and making it worth reading, featuring the new changes/fixes.

 

Patch Notes (1.51) here.

 

Important changes will be featured on the OP so people can find them easily (of course you will be credited for your contribution).

 

 

List of Featured changes

Spoiler

- There's a new Business Battle at the Foundry. 8 packages to collect and the panel to hack in is Lester's old method from the Fleeca heist. @The Gator

- Open Wheel Race downforce values are fixed, so now it actually matters what parts are on your vehicle. More.

 

- Now getting snacks add up instantly instead of the short loading after each snack gotten for free. At least with Wendy. @toguraum

 

- Window glitch on Faction has been fixed (the bug caused by removing the t-tops, that makes the windows remain up). Coquette D10 has the same window glitch. Removing the roof leaves the windows up. @blk95ta

Spoiler

- The mariachi Tornado has its img issue fixed in the garage info tab. It shows the Declasse logo now.

 

- You can now open/close the After Hours shirts and add a different t-shirt underneath them. Added more reskins. @Piro

 

- The method to pause the timer when doing business sales by pulling up your phone before your contact calls you seems to have been fixed. @BJBooBoo

 

- The After Hours shirts now have an "open" option available. You get this automatically if you owned the buttoned ones, but it looks like they are for sale as separate shirts in the store. @Alec Skorpio

Interesting bug/feature? If you swap sessions while selling your bunker due to getting a sale type you don't like, it immediately places you back into the same session.

No, to export it only as far as I know. You get like 20k, peanuts.

I bet it's still 24hrs though instead of calendar days.

[nido997]

the blue NPC Sentinel now brings 20k instead of 17k previously ( need to check the other ones : the NPC Sandkings and especially the Dubsta2).

in addition to the new vehicle list simeone is requesting , the only option that appears in LSC for those vehicles is paint in deed , and it costs you 0$ from now on...

EDIT : the NPC Sandking still brings 18k ...so only the Sentinel got more expensive ?

The game was already fully installed - it shouldn't be redownloading the whole thing.
