Having so much fun playing around with the mod, but I've noticed that check out at the check in and gun runner missions give me an unhandled exception and my game just crashes, check out at the check in crashes once the opening cutscene ends, and gun runner crashes once I smash the first crate. Any solutions?

Glad you're enjoying it! Your issue sounds like the autosave bug (again)... 

Basically, those missions try to spawn pickups, the autosave has not cleared enough pickup memory upon loading the game. This results in a crash as soon as the weapons need to spawn.

The fix is to collect hidden packages and/or do rampages until enough memory is free for those missions to have space to spawn what they need to. 

Here's a map in case you want to speed up the process: https://ehgames.com/gta/map/ebxqqb4gsc1

Gonna try that and give you feedback once I get a chance, thanks for the awesome mod Rob!

Works perfectly now Rob, also got rid of the autosave script so it won't cause any further issues, I recommend you replace it with a save anywhere script or something, I think that won't cause issues. Hyped for tightened'dreas as well! Have a good day!

I have some questions about Unhandled Exception:c0000005 at address:004c52a1.
1. How much packages and rampages need to be done in order to fix it? I have already found like 6 packages and done like 10 rampages and still getting error at Check In Check Out mission.

2. Is there any way to reset it if it's connected with Autosave? Would a new install with old save files fix it?

3. Is there any change in this issue in version 2.3 compared to version 2.25?

The specific amount isn't really something I can speak on, unfortunately. It depends on a bunch of factors, but basically it's "as many as you can".
There's no way to "reset" it on your current save/s once it's happened afaik, it has nothing to do with the game install and is entirely self contained to User Files.
No, there's no change for this issue for at least a year. It got better as I added more manual destroy calls for pickups in SCM, but clearly hasn't solved the problem for people making heavier use of autosaving (because depending on how you play, a ton of temporary pickups can be created from any number of peds, scripted characters or even stuff like parking meters).

Hello, I can't play the game, when I want to start a new game the following message appears

I installed the mod in a complete fresh Vice City folder but this happens everytime.

@_Rob_ Do you know why this happens and how can I fix this?

Windows DEP, most likely. Either turn the feature off, or grab a "noDEP" plugin.

[stunt086]

I installed the NoDEP.asi file and it worked once but when I tried to play the game again, it won't open, when I click on the .exe file the game just doesn't start. Do you know what it could be this time? I tried everything but still can't find any solution.

Got an issue. Whenever i try to start a new game i get an Unhandled Exception error, any idea why that happens?

Can I get some specifics? "An unhandled exception" doesn't really tell me much, I'm afraid. 

Like, how did you install the mod, which version are you using, what's the address on the error etc etc

If i play with 144 fps the problem is gone, that's weird.

try using FramerateVigilante to limit your fps to 60 and avoid framerate bugs

This game keeps giving me this error, making it pretty much unplayable to me. I'm playing the latest V2.3 version as well

That's a new one on me, not seen that address before. However, I can see by the radar alone that you're combining with other mods (not recommended). I'd suggest trying either a clean install of VC with just TV installed on top, or removing your other mods 1 by 1.

[RubberDuck1970s]

If you're talking about the widescreen mod, it's included with the latest version. In the scripts folder.

No, I'm talking about the radar. The icons are different from vanilla/TV, which leads me to think other files may also be modified (or the mod was installed on top of an already modified game).

I did a clean install of the game and added NoDEP plugin, since it kept crashing on when selecting a new game. Works really well, I relaunched it a few times with no issues.

I've tried it but i think it shows the original ones if im not mistaken, it shows me on in little haiti, i've been following rob video but i dont seem to spot this jump on it

Correct. III and VC don't store stunt jump locations in their save files, so GTASNP.com only knows the vanilla/unmodded locations.

 

I took a look at the script for this mod and figured out what the new location for it is. I think the one you're missing is around here. (Just the center one, ignore the other markers.)

Hello! May I ask if Tightened Vice is compatible with classic axis?

Can't think of a reason why it wouldn't be, but I've never tried it to know for sure.

Hi,

I am not a native speaker so sorry for my English in advance.

 

I have some fps issues...

The main menu and the game is very laggy. But when I delete widescreenfix the FPS lag is gone but the game doesn't look good obviously. 

I had no problems with other mods which used the WideScreenFix like ReViced or GTA Vice City Extended Features.

Also strange that when I leave the files where they are but I play the game in windowed mode I have no issues with FPS lag...

 

Is there any solution to play the game in Fullscreen mode and with WideScreenFix?

 

My Laptop specs is more than enough so I don't think thats the problem also I dedicated my NVIDIA GPU to this game.

Are you window capturing with OBS or something similar?

I know that causes issues and you need to use a different capture method to fix it.
