(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); New Features / Updates

• Changes have been made to the Matchmaking options and UI. This affects:
  
  
  • Heist Planning Board
    
    • A new option has been added to the Heist Planning Board that will allow you to press Left on the D-pad to quickly join a Heist as a crew member. You must have an active Heist in order to access this feature.
    
    
    
  • Heist Lobby
    
    
    • A “Matchmaking” option has been added to Heist lobbies that allows the Host to quickly change whether matchmaking is open or closed. When set to “Closed”, only invited players can connect with the Heist lobby. This option is “Closed” by default, which means only players you invite can join the session.
      
    • The “Client Invites” option has been reinstated for the host of the lobby that is “On” by default. This allows players that have joined the Heist to invite their friends. If you only want the host to be able to send invites, “Client Invites” should be set to “Off”.
      
  
  
  
• Improvements to the “Auto-Invite” matchmaking option to help fill lobbies faster
  
• Improvements to matchmaking for Heists to fill lobbies faster

What does this mean for Modders?

Not a whole lot as far as we can tell. We have to go through the usual updating that follows EBOOT changes, but it doesn't seem like R* was out to patch any modding content.

What would they gain from changing it?

thnx man

Useless thread.

There was a patch, these are R*'s published notes on the patch. Feel free to explain why you believe it's useless.

These patch notes are easily accessed on Rockstar's website. If anything changed as it pertains to modding, then the thread would be applicable.

It's not posted in the modding section, so your argument is invalid.

Hi,
maybe everybody can feel that the contence of heists (DLC 1.22) was intented to be performed on the the PS4. This imo u can feel by the design, if u play the heist content. And the implementation for the PS3 seems to be at the borders, what is possible to do, but maybe it´s simply BAD programmed - it´s not really working like all the other stuff on GTAO, you should feel that during the gameplay!

Main-killing-gameplay-aspects, ....
that are not fixed, .....
still BIG BUGS:

-eclipse towers "sign-rain"
-character spawns with UGLY FACE (never seen???) (coming from PS4-contence, because of another genetic parents-generation-engine, IMO) - happens after an own leaded heist-mission
-a lot of time, a heist-mission-start FREEZES (on OFW the same!!!) - rebooting or off-signing from PSN is needed (last one prevents modders from programming handling and weapon-mods new!, because the game gets in single-player and so it keeps the changed data!)
-STRANGE-TATTOO-SPAWNING onto the character after heists-missions (this is an older problem, never patched!)
-if a heist mission is interrupted by another gamer (because there are not enough players anymore), the character is spawning not simply back, where he started (private-lobby), instead he spawns into a new session - and that takes unnecessary more time.
-the waiting time to get a heist to be started is MUCH TOO LONG, mostly caused by bad server connections as usually, in this aspect "PSN" and "RS-cloud" are shaking hands!
-the character spawns ALWAYS with pulled weapon into lobbies....
and other minor bug-stuff!

hah! - good to get rid of this!
