GTA San Andreas patch on Steam removes songs and 'breaks save files'
The update went live on Friday and since then players have been reporting issues with the newly patched game.
Although Rockstar did not provide patch notes for the update, GTA fan site Rockstar Nexus has listed the changes it has discovered.
While there are a handful of positive changes including the addition of support for Xinput controllers (like the Xbox 360 controller) and the use of mouse steering by default, other changes that have left fans upset.
Most notable of these is the removal of 17 songs from the game's soundtrack, likely due to licensing reasons.
These are the same 17 songs that do not feature in the recently released Xbox 360 version of the game. They are:
Critical Beatdown
Running Down A Dream
Woman To Woman
You Dropped A Bomb On Me
Yum Yum
Running Away
I Don't Give A f*ck
Express Yourself
Killing in the Name of
Hellraiser
Ring My Bell
Don't Let It Go To Your Head
Express Yourself
Rock Creek Park
Grunt
Soul Power '74
The Payback
As well as this, some users are reporting issues with save files not being read, as well as the removal of some display resolutions. Rather than a direct result of the update, Rockstar Nexus theorises this is the result of Rockstar potentially accidentally basing it on an older version of San Andreas.
San Andreas fans experiencing issues are being directed to the fan-made patch SilentPatch, which fixes the save file and resolution issues but sadly does not reinstate the 17 removed tracks.

San Andreas had the best radio in my opinion, it's a shame some great songs were taken away.

DeluxeHazard Even though these issues suck, it is pretty cool how a fan made patch actually fixes some of the issues.
I know right, can do a better job than Rockstar themselves.
