Changes in version 1.5:

Changes in version 1.1:

For most people, the build will seem unremarkable, but for fans of the PC version's atmosphere, it might even seem interesting. Initially, I planned to call the build "SAFixMobile", but then I thought that I hadn't improved the game, but rather, worsened it in a way, so I gave the build a different name. What's the point... In this version of the build, I added quite a lot from the PC version of the game, as the PC version seems more serious and cool to me, and objectively that is the case.

• Fixed the bug with disappearing textures in some areas of the state.

• New version of PVSA (the grass has become significantly more beautiful and transparent, like on PC).

• Madness Loader 0.4 by PM.

• Hud from the PC version of the game.

• Exclusive save, you won't find one like it anywhere. It's not the whole game completed, but only about 70%, without arrests or deaths. Throughout all this, I played GTA SA without unnecessary deaths (the number of kills equals the number of lawful kills). Almost all races, the story line, police missions, paramedic missions, and some other side missions have been completed. To avoid spoiling the game with unrealistic features like inability to burn in fire, I did not complete the firefighter, taxi driver, thief, pimp, or train driver missions. No property has been bought, so you will have something to do + some side missions remain.

• Fixed texture bugs (the most noticeable ones were the textures of wires in rural areas.

• Added increased drawing distance for trees, poles, lights.

• PC atmosphere, obtained by editing colorcycle.dat and timecycle.dat.

• The cache is now read from the "data" folder, which significantly reduced the file size.

• Fast Loader (by PM). Now the Social Club loading is skipped.

• New font.

• Fixed the bug with slow loading of weapon icon textures and the map.

• Other minor fixes.

Cons:

• Some PC bugs have migrated to the mobile version, namely the crooked alpha channel on vegetation textures.

• Grass still sometimes takes a long time to load.
