Today Bethesda is releasing Patch 1.4 foron consoles. The patch fixes a huge number of bugs, including the notorious 'Rimlag' issue that has vexed PS3 players for so long.On the PS3, the game's performance currently dips when players have large save files. Bethesda has released at least one patch in the past to alleviate the problem but it still wasn't completely removed. Hopefully this update will knock it off a cliff with a hearty "FUS-RO-DAH."The PC version of this update went live last week . The PC patch included support for the Skyrim Workshop, an online hub for use with the new Skyrim Creation Kit mod tools. Console gamers won't receive either the Creation Kit or Workshop with this update, though they may get them eventually The full patch notes for the 360/PS3 update are below.
