Introduction On the SilentPatch GitHub issue tracker, I received a rather specific bug report: Skimmer airplane doesn’t exist in Windows 11 24H2 When I upgraded my windows to version 24H2, the Skimmer plane disappear completely from the game. It can’t be spawn using trainer nor it can’t be found anywhere on it’s normal spawn points. I’m using both my modded copy (which is before the update, is completely fine) and vanilla copy with only silentpatch (I tried the 2018, 2020 and the most recent version of silentpatch) and the plane still won’t exist. If this was the first time I had heard about it, I’d likely consider it dubious and suspect there are more things at play, and it’s not specifically Windows 11 24H2. However, on GTAForums, I’ve been receiving comments about this exact issue since November last year. Some of them said SilentPatch causes this issue, others however stated the same happens on a completely unmodded game: Apparently the skimmer cant spawn when playing on Windows 11 24h2 update, hope this bug gets fixed. EDIT: So I think I confirmed it, I set up a VM with Windows 11 23h2 and the damn plane spawns fine, and updating that same VM to 24h2 breaks the skimmer, why would a small feature update in 2024 break a random plane in a 2005 game is anyone’s guess. After the latest Silent patch update there is no Skimmer in the game and when I try to spawn it with RZL-Trainer or Cheat Menu by Grinch, the game freezes and I have to close it via Task Manager. […] I was forced to update to 24H2, and now after the update, I have the same problem with the Skimmer in GTA SA as others. This means that mods or anything else are not causing the issue, the problem appeared after the latest Windows update. My home PC is still on Windows 10 22H2, while my work machine is on Windows 11 23H2, and, to no surprise, neither machine reproduced the issue – Skimmer spawned on the water just fine, creating one via script and putting CJ in a driver’s seat worked too. That said, I als...
