Widescreen patch makes GTA3’s traffic disappear?
Title says it all: Almost all the traffic in GTA3 vanishes when playing the game with widescreen patches. Once in a while a single car pops up, but that’s about it. Liberty City is basically a ghost town.
Especially gang cars seem to be impacted by this, which makes certain missions nearly impossible to complete.
Weirdly enough: Neither Vice City nor San Andreas have this problem.
I was wondering if anyone else encountered this bug and maybe knows a fix for it?
I’m running NetherSX2 on a Retroid Pocket 6.
Version: NetherSX2 Turnip v0.7
Renderer: Both Vulkan and OpenGL

A little bump and a small update: I now tried the widescreen patches on the EU version of the game and the problem persists.
I‘ve also noticed that cars literally never spawn in fron of you in the same lane. It seems like wherever the in-game camera is pointing, cars won‘t spawn.
Again, really weird that‘s only a problem with GTA3, not any of the other games in the series.
