If I had a dollar for every 2025 UE5 game that has artifacts presumably caused by character skinning/animations going awry, I'd have two dollars now, which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice. In other words - welcome back MindsEye?

TIL that GTA III has an unused but fully functional feature that gives the player $1 for every second a passenger sits in their taxi (like in GTA2). The Taxi mission even has this script command present, but commented out. Vice City kept the code, but cut the script command.

Vigilante in GTA III has a unique bonus that doesn't quite work: if you catch 10 criminals in a row, the game grants a "get out of jail free card". With it, you keep your money after you are busted (once), but at some point you kept your weapons too. The final game takes them.

Around 2 years ago, I *tried* to play through Acclaim Juiced, but I couldn't tame its handling model. Turns out back then I had a half-finished Xbox gamepad layout mod for the PS2 prototype, so now I came back and finished it! With proper throttle control, it'll be nicer.

Something is seriously wrong with traffic in Hard Truck 2/King of the Road, and I can't tell if that's how it always was, or if it's broken only on the modern PCs and/or the latest version of the game.

In San Andreas, Maccer appears outside of the cutscenes in Don Peyote, and neither him or Kent Paul have voices beyond the scripted dialogue lines. However, Maccer actually has a set of lines that went unused, since they were not assigned to his model name!

It's cool that Old School Rally pays homage to the Colin McRae Rally's UFO abduction easter egg, but it's unfortunate that it's "cheapened": in CMR you respawned with a "jelly" car, in OSR the stage simply resets. Not even turning the car green, like another CMR cheat did.

Upstate Liberty mod for GTA III is out, and it lets us do what everyone dreamed about since 2001. It's so good, and the playable area is huge.

Steve here plays on the PS5, I tried another hypercar on the PC *for the first time* right now and... I am not struggling at all. I wonder if the review PC build is slightly newer then, or maybe gamepad steering on PC is better tuned?? A little puzzling.

There is something inherently cool about trashing these dirt track courses with Liberty City skyscrapers in the background, it evokes the same sense of scale San Andreas did.

Gang generation in GTA III was quite broken, especially on PC - some VC code made it in and broke things. On PS2, a code to spawn formations of gangs existed, but was disabled due to glitches. SilentPatch restores and fixes the PS2 code. I recreated this beta clip to demonstrate.

The 'Coach Driver' mission from GTA LCS May 2005 prototype is fully usable and coded like a GTA III mission - because of this, it ports to that game 1-to-1. In GTA III, we can play through it exactly how it was in that prototype. It's pretty glitchy, but playable.

Surprise! NASCAR: Dirt to Daytona is seen as one of the best classic NASCAR games, but it always had a downside of being locked to 30 FPS. This changes today: I uncapped the physics simulation updates, achieving perfect 60 FPS, just like Heat 2002 did.

Upstate has a huge dirt track with multiple routes, so it would be a shame if it wasn't utilized in a checkpoint mission.

This is likely the last audio-related addition for the next release of SilentPatch: Passenger dialogue lines for running over people were fixed in SP as early as 2018, but those lines never worked for civilians. They have them in a separate "taxi" context, which SP now uses too.

I still haven't grasped the controls fully (it takes quite a bit of time to get used to them), but I think I now *get it*.
