    People have successfully compiled GTA V if that is what you are saying.

    Of course no one would make another game using leaked tools, that would be incredibly stupid.

      No, that was what I meant, I thought they didn’t, I was wrong, it turned out

        Yeah, people successfully compiled and ran the game within a few days of the leak.

        I tried myself but I didn’t get it to work. But I’m no developer and I tried doing it in a VM (no way those files touch my real computer) which was annoying so I gave up quite quickly.
