changedTime freeze bugWe've heard a lot of people bring up the time freezing bug and yet a ton of players were able to play upwards of 50 hours without any issues. Since it didn't seem urgent it got pushed off for a while but we're finally attempting to resolve it. I've made some changes to the code surrounding record deals and booked events that should hopefully prevent anymore time freezes from occuring. As always your feedback is crucial so if you still get the bug please exit the game and email me a copy of your save file so that I may further diagnose the issue.
changedAttempting to increase compatibilityThis part is a bit technical but we've reduced texture page sizes in hopes of making the game more functional for less capable video cards. Not sure if this will actually solve the problems we've heard from the community but we are hopeful.

After a much needed break from development we're coming back to improve the quality of life for RGT. In the coming days Panos plans to bring in some more customization options for characters!

Time freeze bug

We've heard a lot of people bring up the time freezing bug and yet a ton of players were able to play upwards of 50 hours without any issues. Since it didn't seem urgent it got pushed off for a while but we're finally attempting to resolve it. I've made some changes to the code surrounding record deals and booked events that should hopefully prevent anymore time freezes from occuring. As always your feedback is crucial so if you still get the bug please exit the game and email me a copy of your save file so that I may further diagnose the issue.

Windowed mode is back

After a number of complaints we switched the game to borderless windowed instead of normal windowed but it turns out the majority actually prefers windowed mode as that allows the window to be resized freely. So we've returned to that.

Attempting to increase compatibility

This part is a bit technical but we've reduced texture page sizes in hopes of making the game more functional for less capable video cards. Not sure if this will actually solve the problems we've heard from the community but we are hopeful.

Changelog 1.2.0.8

  • Reduced standard texture page size from 8192x8192 to 4096x4096

  • Switched the game back to Windowed mode

  • Fixed a possible time stop bug with album finalization

  • Fixed a possible time stop bug with booked events such as gigs and video clips

  • Drug Dealer image is properly removed from memory when the popup menu is closed

  • Minor optimizations to script referencing throughout the game
