The 1.03 title update adds a cinematic camera option too
Rockstar Games and developer Grove Street Games have released a new title update forGrand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition, addressing some common complaints about the collection. Among the targeted fixes are the rain, the fog, the stability, and one pesky set of donut and nut.
The detailed patch notes went live today too, andthey’re pretty extensive. The top-billed updates across theGrand Theft Autotrilogy are general stability improvements and fixes to a number of misspellings on art and signage. Rain shouldn’t appear indoors during some cutscenes any more, either.
Also part of the update is a new cinematic camera option. You can cycle through it while flicking through camera modes in-game. The Donut and Nut props at the Tuff Nuts shop have been touched up too!
But mostly, it’s a lot of rain. Aspointed out on social media, rain pops up fairly often, both as part of the cutscene fix and in general fixes. (“Fixed an issue where the rain appears under water when falling,” for example.)
TheGrand Theft Autotrilogy collection launched earlier this month andhad a pretty lukewarm reception. The definitive versions still had their fun, but were also weighed down by a lot of technical issues and shortcomings. EventuallyRockstar published an apologyfor the state of the versions, and promised the classic PC versions would return to the Rockstar Store as well.
With all thetechnical analysis detailing and breaking down the state of this trilogy collection, it’s been shown there’s a lot to tackle. Players will likely comb over all the details and see what’s better now and what still needs more. Meanwhile, it seems like themodding community is already bringing their efforts to bearon the collection. Time will tell how it pans out.
