Lost weapons in single player

[Punkcherri]

I was playing earlier and I noticed when I was using Trevor that he was missing all of the weapons on the left side of the wheel. I know I had them last night but now they're not there. When I go to Ammunation and go to each weapon that I'm missing, they all show up like I never bought them. Here's where it gets weird, when I bought all of the missing weapons again, all of the upgrades that I had on my missing guns were still checked. That and the colors don't work. When I go to the weapon at Ammunation, it shows that I have a certain color purchased or equipped but when I pull it out, it's always black. It only happened with Trevor, though. I have never had as many issues with single player as I have here recently.

So, I originally thought it was only the left side of the wheel weapons but it's also a couple weapons from the other side. The stun gun, being one of them, was acquired from a mission, as was the mini gun. There are random other guns missing from other slots, too. Another problem that has been bugging me... Has anyone else had their businesses in single player stop calling? At first they called all the time but now I rarely here from them. I don't know if its a 1.12 issue or if my save file itself is buggy.

Hello, if these issues were directly caused by 1.12 they would have happened as soon as you installed the update. That said, there's no harm in uninstalling the update from your console (as soon as you next play the game, the update will re-download and re-install.)

 

It does sound more like a corrupt save though. Easily fixed by re-loading a previous save from a different slot. Not so easily saved if you auto-save or use just the one save slot.

Some of mine seem to randomly disappear. My Molotov's and melee weapons vanished on Franklin after playing for a while and the Assault SMG seemingly disappeared from all characters. Not really a problem if I loose them though, I can just buy them back with my billions of shiny pennies.

It happened to me early in the game, when I switched characters the weapons would disappear, but on reloading a different save the problem resolved.

 

This is why it is wise to use multiple save slots. Especially if you don't have billions of shiny pennies!

Ultimately, I deleted the corrupted save file and started a new game and I intend to start making multiple back ups of my new game. So far, a few of the little issues were resolved so, I think it may have been that particular save file. I read quick saving as main save and joining online through the character wheel can corrupt a save. Thankfully, my 100% file wasn't the one that it happened to. Let's hope ALL the issues are resolved.

Indeed. Many thanks for the update on your situation.

this bug has been around for ages. even reloading the same save file can restore or remove random guns.
