A new beta personal computer (PC) patch has just been released for "Fallout 4," and it is introducing plenty of tweaks and additions to the game.

Before getting into what patch 1.3.45 actually contains, players should note that they will not get the update unless they have previously opted in to receive the beta updates.

Bethesda has also indicated that the new beta patch is still a "work in progress," so players are advised to have some backup save files just to be safe, according to GameSpot.

As for what the new "Fallout 4" beta PC patch contains, first off, it is adding some new features to the game. Most of the additions are quite minor, although the introduction of status menus for those inside settlements could help make things more convenient for players moving forward.

Even though the new beta PC patch for "Fallout 4" is not adding a ton of new content, it is still introducing a variety of bug fixes for the game.

Some of the more notable fixes include one that addresses the issue of players potentially being transported to different locations while they were in the process of aiming.

Companions will no longer be saddled with radiation poisoning any longer than they're supposed to, and the effects they get from certain pieces of equipment will promptly wear off after those items have been removed.

Another notable bug being addressed by the latest patch is one that would sometimes lead to players being dismembered despite the fact that they were still very much alive, Games Radar+ reported.

Several quest-specific fixes have also been introduced to "Fallout 4" via the latest beta patch.

Additional workshop fixes are also looking to make the overall experience of playing "Fallout 4" even better.

The usual round of memory and stability improvements has also been introduced to "Fallout 4" via the latest beta PC patch.
