I can load games, but starting a new game results in a black screen
Posted On: March 15, 2024

I bought a brand new pc and decided to revisit this piece of art.


I could load my previous saves normally, however I would like to start story mode from scratch.


The game loads up but just when the cutscene would start I get a black screen.


I tried some known fixes from related problems but none really did it:.


Whitelist game on firewall.


Disable vsync.


Delete "system.xml" from Settings folder.


My GPU drivers are up-to-date. I'm running using an up-to-date DirectX 12, as Vulkan is broken for me (menus disappearing, textures not loading, that kind of stuff).


Current game build: 1491.18. I got the game directly through Rockstar.


Question from user CarlosCarucce at gaming.stackexchange.com.


Answer:

I finally figured it out.


The installation of .NetFramework 3.5 (Redistributable) was corrupt.


As it has some dependencies, all I had to do was reinstall it.


Here is the official link.
