[Exclusive] Found GTA V Beta Character Models in JP release (Patreon)

Hello there!Well, I am still trying to get as many GTA versions as possible.

In the previous months I decided to acquire various Japanese GTA V releases on various platforms and I must say, these releases do have a few beta tidbits.

What is more interesting, these beta files are scattered around various platforms. For instance, you can find an "x" file in Xbox 360, but not in PS4 and etc. My head exploded comparing these JP versions with their retail counterparts. 😅

Bought Xbox 360/PS3 and PS4 releases.

Since this Patreon page was dedicated to acquiring various rare releases, I decided to share these finds with you, because you helped me to get these files, and, I think, you will be pleased to look at these beta character models by yourself.

While I am waiting for the narrators to voice me their lines, I am lurking through the files and found this below.

UPDATE. This post became free.

So, the first beta model left in JP files is from Rufus Bellows.

This dude appears only on TV and we are very lucky to look at him closer:

It seems that it was always a "cutscene" model, which was never meant to appear in the final game, but who knows.

The tie seems to have a different colour in comparison with the TV footage. I don't have a clue if his model is older or newer than we saw it on a TV.

The next cut model is from William Angio.

This dude also appears only on TV and his model looks like this:

Open IV doesn't render hair well, so I had to disable it for the second shot.

The third cut model is from Jack Howitzer, who appears on TV as well.

The thing is, his model appeared in the PC version.I always wonder if the developers clean these beta files manually in every single release.

And now we have something very interesting.

There are two cut female North Yankton cop models; snowcop1 and snowcop2.

The first model:

The second model:

Why did R* remove them from the final game is a damn mystery to me.

There is a male "snowcop1" model, but there is no "snowcop2" model. It makes me believe, that R* had to cut a lot of content from North Yankton sequences.

And that's pretty much it. I want to say that we are very lucky to at least look at these models and if you want to do something with them, the download link can be found below.

There are more beta files left in these JP releases, but I haven't investigated them yet.
