Hotfix 1.16.02 removes the black load screen and RX 9070 artifacts

Hotfix 1.16.02 is already on PC in Steam and the Epic Games Store, and on PS5 and Xbox Series. The Mac version comes later.

The loading screen no longer hangs or turns black when loading saves in the cases where that broke. On AMD, ray-tracing artifacts on the Radeon RX 9070 XT and newer cards were removed. On Mac, a crash at launch with MetalFX denoising was closed, though the Mac client itself is still in progress. Interior-housing functions in housing mode are available again.

There is no new trade and no new posts on the list. This is a short fix from the same day as the China Joy award news.
