The GTAF Bug Report

Recommended Posts

Since R* is watching this forum, i think we should make a list to gather all the things we want to see fixed in a patch, wether its bugs or sugestions, post them all here.

I will update this post regularily and add everything thats reasonable.

 

Mods: feel free to edit/add to this, i may not be the person with the most free time to do this, ill update this when i get back from work tomorrow, if you think its unneeded, just lock this, im just trying to make an effort.

 

DONT report crashes here, theyre collected in the sticky already.

 

 

GENERAL:

 

- fix overall game performance

 

 

GRAPHICS:

 

- add SLI support

- add anti aliasing

- allow more control over shaders (ie. shadows, reflections, bloom, etc), so that users can disable what they need to.

- add a frame limiter where users can define the max framerate (a max_fps command would work too i guess)

 

 

CONTROLS:

 

- problems with binding keyboard and mouse buttons

- add suport for all gamepads, we shouldnt have to find a workaround

 

 

MULTIPLAYER:

 

- add suport for dedicated servers

- add more server filter options

- add a direct connect feature (by ip:port)

- display ping in server browser

 

SOCIAL CLUB:

 

- fix login issues

 

 

WINDOWS LIVE:

 

-

 

VIDEO EDITOR

 

-

 

GAMEPLAY:

 

- improve camera adjustment speed when driving (maybe add a new camera mode which turns more with the vehicle)

How about telling them to optimize the game so that I dont get 25 FPS at the lowest settings when I have an 8800 GTX, Quad Core CPU and 4 Gigs of Ram.

FIX the CONSTANT objects popping in from thin air and textures being redrawn 20 feet away from your character.

 

IS THERE A REASON WHY THE GAME IS NOT STORING THIS STUFF IN MEMORY!!!! WHy is it storing EVERYTHING in video memory????

For those of us who use the 360 Wireless Controller, the triggers act as buttons, there is no sensitivity in them.

it's being doing that since the xbox version. I doubt they did much to it. They didn't look at this game and realize computers have a lot more memory. Here's fixing it to me....

 

1. Next time don't force people to get all these updates to play the game, and stupid social club shouldn't be forced! Why have both and windows live?

2. Make sure the game can work on lowest, mid, and highest graphics, plus with sli and crossfireX. Which it can't! Where was the testing?

3. Something wrong with the speed. Sometimes I see things moving super fast and then all of the sudden super slow.

4. Graphics looks boxy, it didn't look this bad on the xbox 360, and I have a Radeon HD 3870, 2 of them! So GET TO WORK! Fix the graphic settings.

5. And my last thing is, FOR GOD SAKE FIX OLD BUGS SINCE THE CONSOLE VERSION OTHERWISE DON'T RELEASE IT! Stupid disconnects bugs are still there! WHAT ARE YOU THINKING!!?????

 

I thought GTA 4 was the best game, but for PC, it is now my WORST GAME! FOR GOD SAKE, FIX IT AND FIX IT RIGHT!

First and formost

* Fix When you join a game via Windows Live Invite once you leave it doesnt load your SP game it starts a new one very annoying having to skip and load ur game if you join mp via GFWL Invite...

 

* Sometimes you cant pick Up Spawns

 

*Missings Textures happens Quite frequently to me sometimes alt+tab fixes other times not.

 

*Make it so you can fly heli without using mouse I mean Disable it and use mouse to Look around then I could program side buttons for tilt up/down and w s a d and q e for the others, Just like in SA

 

*Obviously Dedicated Server

 

*Sometimes pep are shooting yet there is no animation are sound just the bullet holes, Need Fixed...

 

Hmm whatelse? I forget the rest there is quite a few...

Try adding to this large thread of the same already running smile.gif worth keeping together :

 

http://www.gtaforums.com/index.php?showtopic=379459

the problem with that thread is that the initial poster doesnt make a list in his first post and doesnt update it, if you were rockstar, would you want to skim through serveral pages to read the same things over and over instead of looking at a list with everything collected?

 

i went through that topic and picked everything out and added it into my list so its kinda obsolete now anyway.

 

btw, you said the video editor had some bugs, could you list them please?

- Better CPU usage optimization

- Fix shadows

- ANTI ALIASING!!!

- Fix those other bugs.

yes, we need this game to be optimized so it doesnt run like sh*t on the lowest settings on powerful PC's. we also need anti aliasing because seeing lines of squares at the edges of cars is gay.

does 'improve general game performance' involve fixing the memory leak problem? it might be wise to mention the mem-leak separately, because 'improve general performance' is just too vague.

ok some of that is hard to understand, is this ok?:

 

 

- after leaving a game that was joined by a windows live invite, load the last savegame rather then starting a new game

 

- add ability to disable mouse for heli flying and instead using it to look around

 

"*Sometimes pep are shooting yet there is no animation are sound just the bullet holes, Need Fixed..."

 

- fix animation and sound issues in multiplayer? is that what you mean?

 

and what do you mean by "* Sometimes you cant pick Up Spawns"?

i think incase theres memory leaks, they should be able to identify and find them, if not, there really is no hope..

 

but if you have specific symptoms that are the same each time you play, post them and i can make a list of "common symptoms" right after "improve general performance". This may help them to analyze the causes better.

Like other have mentioned:

 

- Fix performance issues.

- Some sort of AA.

- VSync is needed for this game. Where the f*ck is it? I hate screen tearing.

If R* were not able to fix all these obvious issues before release, how long will we wait for a patch, probably a long time. And lots of patches.

 

*I want to be able to start the game. tons of Fatal errors confused.gif

From what I have seen and heard, make it able to spawn more peds and cars around the city.

Ability to bind keys depending on the "view".

 

EX:

Binding the "A" key to do one thing while on foot and bind the "A" key to do something completely different while in a vehicle.

 

This is especially important if using a controller... if they add universal controller support.

(after leaving a game that was joined by a windows live invite, it starts a new game instead of loading the last savegame.)

Yes Indeed thanks for more clear cut Answer lol cookie.gif

 

and what do you mean by "* Sometimes you cant pick Up Spawns"?

 

Multiplayer Related Weapon/Armor Spawns, Happened once with armor and once with M4 Machine Gun.

 

Oh and one more a few times I have seen cars driving about with no NPC's in them in MP once they stop and you try to jack it wont let you enter the car, But when you shoot where the NPC should be a few secs later they appear dead and you can then enter the car...

 

+ The Caracter Model doesnt save the clothes/Look you assigned for your caracter so Everytime you launch the Game you Have to go Back to Player Model and redo it...
