Hey everyone, Sergey here, with a quick personal update about the future of my projects. For over a decade I've been creating and maintaining open-source fixes and mods for classic PC games - including Fusion Fix, Widescreen Fixes Pack, Ultimate ASI Loader, Project2DFX, and many others. These mods have helped a lot of people enjoy older titles with proper widescreen support, better stability, and modern improvements. After being affected by layoffs and welcoming a new child into the family, balancing everything has become much harder. I want to keep maintaining these projects properly, which is why I've launched the Fusion Fix Sponsor Squad. Your monthly support helps me dedicate consistent time to bug fixes, new game support, and long-term development. Here are the available tiers: - Widescreen Warrior ($1/month) - Bug Basher ($2/month) - Water Wrecker ($3/month) - Glitch Guardian ($5/month) - Stutter Stopper ($10/month) - Shader Shredder ($25/month) All tiers include: - Your name displayed in the public sponsors tracker (shown on the website, READMEs, and release pages) Patreon, Ko-fi & Boosty sponsors also receive: - A dedicated Discord role on the Fusion Fix server based on your tier - Access to exclusive sponsor-only Discord channels GitHub Sponsors also receive: - The official GitHub Sponsor badge on your profile Higher tiers get more prominent placement in the sponsors section, a free trial is available on Patreon and Boosty. With your support, here are some of the things I want to focus on next: - A completely remade Widescreen Fixes for classic versions of GTA III, Vice City, and San Andreas, that include proper 3D and 2D scaling for absolutely everything, animated cutscene borders, new better looking text outlines, and much more. - Full Project 2DFX remake for GTA III, Vice City, and San Andreas, looks much better, contains important stability fixes, new features and for the first time ever, distant car lights. - A major update to Widescreen Fixes for Max Payne and Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne. - An update to Max Payne 3 Fusion Fix, focused on better ultra-wide support, customizable Field of View and some other fixes. - A minor update to Resident Evil 6 Fusion Fix to address a crash on certain configurations. - A minor updates to Need for Speed fixes, to address remaining issues reported on GitHub and other feedback.

Fusion Fix 5 for #GTA IV just released and I just uploaded a new video covering all of the new features and fixes! youtu.be/ohBwEdH6lqk?is=FFYk…

🔧 Version 5 of GTA IV Fusion Fix is now available! 🔧 🎉 Happy 18th anniversary, Grand Theft Auto IV! 🎉 📥 Download Links: • GitHub Release: github.com/ThirteenAG/GTAIV.… • ZIP: github.com/ThirteenAG/GTAIV.… • Offline Installer: github.com/ThirteenAG/GTAIV.… • Web Installer: github.com/ThirteenAG/GTAIV.… 📝Changelog: 🖥️ Graphics • Added native ambient occlusion, available as "Ambient Occlusion" in the Graphics menu, this makes the scene and objects look deeper and more grounded • Vehicle tires and damage now reflect on shadows from artificial light sources which support shadow casting, like on the Xbox 360 version • "Console Gamma" now applies to the whole screen, this makes UI elements look more contrasted or as originally intended, like the Xbox 360 version • Added a new .ini option "EnablePreAlphaDepth" (Enabled by default), that allows Depth of Field and Sun Shafts (In general depth based effects) to render behind various transparent objects properly, like on the Xbox 360 version • Added a new .ini option "ReflectionMSAAQuality", which applies MSAA to vehicle, water, interior and mirror reflections, like on the Xbox 360 version (Note that this option *may* behave differently or break depending on the Graphics API/GPU vendor drivers/DXVK version used) • Restored stronger rain droplets refraction, as is on the Xbox 360 version • Allowed more objects to receive shadows under "ExtraDynamicShadows = 2" in the .ini (!Not to be confused with Extra Night Shadows!) 📜 Scripts • Added a new option "Disable Wardrobe Transition" in the Controls menu, this disables all screen fades when switching clothes in the wardrobes or when buying clothes from stores to speed up the process significantly • Added a new option "Instant Stop Taxi" to the Controls menu, to make taxis stop immediately after skipping journeys, instead of allowing drivers to randomly choose when to stop (Sometimes after a good while from the point where they should stop) • Comprehensive scripts' overhaul, fixing various script bugs and adding some improvements • Fixed various script high fps issues, like some object animations, sprite drawing, scripted controls, mission fixes and more • Fixed sensitive virtual keyboard arrow key input on police computers and fixed a soft lock where "File being updated" interface couldn't be exited with the keyboard due to a broken check, unless a gamepad is used to exit it • Fixed a serious script issue which leads to a crash when The Lost clubhouse memorial wall photos are spawned, and also added a new case where the photos can also appear when entering the clubhouse from the roof • Reimplemented friend respect calculation after completing hangouts in TBoGT, so Armando and Henrique respect would increase after Luis completes hangouts with them • Restored the missing Star Junction Burger Shot radar blip in TBoGT by using an unused blip ID • Fixed a possible issue where the player gets stuck for several seconds before ordering food from vendors (e.g. Cluckin' Bell and Burger Shot) • Improved various scripted camera controls, especially when using mouse (Such as those when in taxis, during helicopter tours and when using binoculars) • Restored and corrected some voice lines from minigames and friend activities, like allowing Jim, Terry and Clay to use their own voice lines during the hi-lo cards minigame in TLAD • Restored some unused models, like TLAD's unique combat shotgun prop model inside gun vans and eCola's unique soda can for eCola vending machines • Fixed Brycebug content not being able to trigger and continue after reloading saves (From Stubbs' job) • Fixed some script oversights causing scripted Depth of Field intensity to not be cleared properly after some scenes in missions and other situations • Fixed delayed character animations in several missions • Disabled the low far clip override during TLAD's scripted intro cutscene which allows seeing the map boundaries in some shots • Fixed various issues related to tollbooths, like certain bikes in TBoGT having the wrong pay animations set for the player, NPCs leaving with a delay after paying and weird overtaking behavior, making the whole process smoother • Various other script issue fixes and improvements ⛏️ Code fixes and improvements • Added several new sliders in the Controls submenus to allow controlling mouse/gamepad aim/look-around sensitivity independently from each other • Reworked the "Always Run" option in the Controls menu, now the default walk mode can be toggled between walk, run and sprint by tapping sprint button, and enabling this option now also allows the player to sprint in interiors • Fixed fps dependent physics, this solves inconsistent vehicle handling (For automobiles, bikes, boats, possibly helis too), euphoria ragdolls, and object physics at high fps • Fixed some high fps issues related to helicopters, such as rotor animation speed, downwash effect strength, blinkers speed and partly rotor breaking time (Main rotors should always break after ~10 seconds now, rear ones are still inconsistent) • Fixed drunk driving becoming harder at high fps • Fixed broken player and NPC pathfinding at high fps • Fixed stall when getting on ladders at high fps • Properly fixed some fps dependent UI elements, like pause menu cop blips and loading text • Removed radar 30hz update rate cap and fixed resulting fps dependent zooming individually • Fixed "flickery" cutscene camera jump cuts (Transitions) that resulted from a possible oversight on PC, also fixes the infamous random zooming at high fps in cutscenes properly (Both of these issues do not happen on consoles) • Properly fixed NPCs swerving their vehicles suddenly when there is a train going beneath them, notably on the Algonquin Bridge • Fixed pause menu map crosshair lines not being scaled to resolution properly (Fix may not be 100% authentic) • Refactored and improved the seasonal events implementation, and fixed various issues related to them • Improved the snow event • Disabled some out-of-place rain effects and added fading to volumetric light volumes (May not work with *all* distance slider settings perfectly) • Reimplemented vehicles' first person "hood" mode camera bumping behavior to try to solve its fps dependency (Still imperfect especially when pressing C to look back) • Restored console loading screen base animation speed (Although its still affected by fps) • Restored console/pre-patch 1.0.6.0 pause menu money/time info spacing • Added several new vehicle spawn cheat codes for TLAD and TBoGT • Added a new cheat code to double the physics' rate speed, affects the speed of everything mentioned for the fps independent physics fix • Added a new .ini option to re-enable unused death music in IV (Only for IV for now) • Game speed during stunt jump cameras is now controlled by the mouse wheel instead of mouse movement, like in GTAV • The "MinigamesFpsLimit" .ini option now applies to the Darts and Drinking minigames, with a user controllable list beneath it to allow choosing which minigames it affects (Names represent the names of the scripts of the minigames from script.img) • Added a new .ini option to allow manual control over vehicle turn indicators when the "Turn Indicators" option is enabled • Adjusted the maximum values of the "Vehicle Camera Turn Speed" slider • Fixed an issue with radar zoom delay which made the radar zoom automatically and keep the zoom state after reloading a save • Fixed incorrect dsound.dll warning in certain situations • Various other code/resource adjustments, cleanups and optimizations 🗃️ Assets • Fixed incorrect TLAD automatic pistol rotation when performing drive-bys with it • Fixed the inability to give money to beggars, caused by a missing animation on PC • Restored the missing reload audio for IV's PC animation of the mp5k (SMG) while crouched and restored the missing unique reload audio for the vanilla PC animations of the deagle (Desert Eagle) • Fixed the improper recoil animation for TLAD's and TBoGT's mp5k (SMG) • Fixed incorrect exhaust behavior for the Premier and Romero • Fixed broken player head models in TLAD and TBoGT by using models from console, and removed Johnny's broken blendshape to avoid it breaking his facial animations in some cutscenes (No proper fix yet) • Restored Luis' phone model during the intro cutscene from console and fixed several emissive chandeliers in Tony's apartment • Increased volumetric fog density during seasonal events • Fixed an error in TBoGT's fonts.dat which makes the chalk style "9" glyph use the improper font in the darts minigame • Fixed a typo in TBoGT's carcols.dat which makes the Blade boat lose one possible

The infamous hyperspeed bug in Peter Jackson's King Kong is now fixed! The game tracks time with CPU cycles, but casts the frequency to a 32 bit value. On modern high-clock CPUs that overflows, so the engine thinks your CPU is way slower than it actually is. It then crams way too many physics & gameplay events into each tick - and since the real CPU is still blazing fast, everything goes into insane overdrive. Now properly fixed for smooth gameplay on today's hardware. Download link: fusionfix.io/wfp#kingkong
