How so? I've seen a lot of interest in the chain game as of late without these large gaps.

[HomieEnzo]

It would be cool if in a future when TTDISA OV Volume 2 gets release, we may play it to obtain the 100% with the extra features and missions in it...I'm just saying, 'cause I love that mod.And the requirements could be downloading the mod in order to do the chain game rounds.

Last few change games had been going till 2-3 months, if thats called interest.

 

If you want another example, have a look at VC we did 2-4 rounds in succession and now it is taking so much more time then before

I'm specifically talking about the SA Chain Game. The III, VC and IV Chain Games have a whole different spectrum of players.

 

In this last round only we had 2 new people join in, as well as 6-7 other returning players, most regularly taking turns througout. To me, the goal of the Chain Game has nothing to do with finishing rounds as quickly as possible. I can't just assume people have suddenly lost interest either, especially since we're aproaching the time where some folks are getting back to their daily work/school lives.

 

It still isn't clear to me how lingering rounds for 2 weeks can make them go faster.

[NileshKumar]

I can't argue any further

@BayuSumardi Please disable whatever you have that causes the black screen on loading..

@NileshKumar Weird, I only installed SilentPatch, SkyGFX, Real Skybox, and some framerate-related fixes?
I'm sure the black screen upon loading was usually caused by LoadWholeMap mod, which I didn't use here. (I used them before, and it causes blackscreen problem to me too.)

SkyGFX, Real Skybox

These mods have never been tested for chain game use, and it seems they may be causing issues. Please don't experiment during Chain Game rounds.

Approved mods are still approved (SP, Widscreen, etc.).

The etc. in the rules should be replaced by a specific list. SilentPatch, Widescreen Fix, and... Not really sure anymore.

@BayuSumardi  Dude! 2DFX? IPL flags don't have the expected settings after your save.

 

[Sorviknight]

@b7894 your latest turn breaks the waiting rules. You can only take a turn immediately after your own previous turn if 4 hours have passed since you completed it. I imagine it's gonna be invalidated

Damn it I forgot. There go the oysters. By the way what should I do? Wait for a decision? Or remove the post?

Consider this a warning and play on with the current save progress. Please review the rules. Some of them make a lot more sense once you've got some experience with the Chain Game.

Fair enough, thanks. I did see the rule but I didn't think to check how much time had passed for some reason.

Yeah, no worries. It is customary to grant new players a pass on minor violations that don't otherwise cause any problems. That was just a generic warning.

 

Welcome to the Chain Game. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

by the way @Miles Edgeworth if you want to preserve your semi automatic weapon ammo you musn't enter the stadium race "bloodpool" with uzi or tec9 

My problem wasn't the weapon disappearing, it was failing multiple times and I didn't want mission attempts counter to increase for no clear reason. I'm actually surprised I suck at this mission so much, I don't remember having troubles with it in 100% save

Yeah flying to SF or LV Stadium with 4 Stars and failing over there really sucks..

Maybe it was about "Driving Skill"... after Driving School you can boost up maybe even reach full driving skill. With that skill this event should be easy for you

Wow, this topic is 14 years old. Brings back a lot of fond memories with the Chain Game... good to see that @JAJ and @OrionSR are still around...

it seems Los Santos RIOTS are happening right now

 

I checked the saves and it started occurring with your previous save, Snail Trail. Outrider save doesn't have such an issue.

Thanks for posting a comment in the lounge where I am more likely to see and respond to issues with the CG saves.

 

@ArmanCan Any idea how riots were enabled during your Snail Trail turn? Please double check your game files for a possible source of the problem.

I had no idea about this on Saturday and Sunday but today i decided to check my both files with a savegame editor and realized that there was a checked riot mode on it.. funny thing is gtasnp.com didn't detect any riot mode

GTASNP.com only checks for the changes made by the riot cheat (AJLOJYQY) since it can glitch missions. The riot flag enabled in these saves is different and is normally only toggled by the game's mission script. A cleo script or asi plugin could potentially toggle it too.

I have CLEO library, silent patch and widecreen fix.. i also have a script and it is all about weapons but i can only activate by typing a specific word

This is also my folder.. Under this page i also posted this script preparation link.. and off course why would i activate riots?  EDIT: I don't use any type of cheats.. i hate cheats (especially that WASD cheat) actually all missions are too easy for me

And the rules state:

No Cheats or Modifications: You are not allowed to use any Cheats, Trainers, Modifications or CLEO Scripts during the completion of your Chain Game Turn.

Rename CLEO to something without asi extension during turns.

I'll take this turn.

Missions: Verdant Meadows + Learning to Fly
Link: https://gtasnp.com/PWWXqE
Status: Completed
Completion %: 67.38%
Notes: Saved on Verdant Meadows

You skipped like ten missions since the last save file. You still have lots of time so I suggest just removing the link and trying again.

So what's going on with the last save? Is it being invalidated or can I take a turn?

Yes. I've clarified the issue in the current topic for this round. Go ahead and take a turn.

You're more than welcome to, if you're so eager.

[ArmanCan]

I've just wanted to take a turn but JAJ was faster than me and took the turn first so please remove my comment 

 

By the way i apologize to you because of this inconvenience. I felt ashamed because of it and couldn't reply to you.. this time my turns will be absolutely CLEAN 

[JAJ]

ChrumCrumpet Posted:

Notes: I hope I didn't misunderstand the rules, but I also did Country Endurance which I think I can go along the one named mission? If that's all okay I got 5m02s, $10,000, plus the $5,000 for the mission and Wang Cars asset is completed.

 

Thanks for playing! Looks to me like you understood the rules just fine.
