Capture issues

I made my first capture recently for Lan's XDBX Tour of Los Santos event and found a few issues. So I just wanted to ask if this happens to others and can anything can be done. the description is meant to 500 characters but I could not use more than 100, this made is very difficult to explain what I wanted to a non-capture vehicle appears to be a capture vehicle on the map, this was a GTA I've seen this before in published captures, so I assume it's known bug RS hasn't fixed One of the capture vehicles appear to spawn on top of another one. I assume one had somehow destroyed itself and the other spawned before the first disappeared. T…

Attention Creators

Need some help from those of you with created PS3 jobs. I have been slowly digging through this mess and adding all the missing tags. While going through these PS3 jobs I am finding several of them with bad/wrong RSC links for them. Some of them are also deleted. If you could check your threads it would save me lots of extra time. That would keep me from having to keep track of them and ask you to fix them one at a time. It does seem that most of the issues involve the older jobs on the last few pages. Of course this isn't a super pressing issue but it bugs me and my need for organization, lol. Thanks for any cooperation in this matter.

10 Simple Races with Stock Cars

I'm putting together a small playlist designed for use with members of the crew or friends who may not be experienced with racing on GTA. I don't want anything technical or too long, they'll need to be nice short simple races ideally set to a single make stock car so no one has an advantage with customs or car knowledge. These races can also be used to help unlock race wins for those people who are bored with driving around criminal records again and again and again zzzzzzz What do you guys recommend?

Skewed Start Points
by G37- 2 followers

- 1.3k views
So this seems to be a reoccurring issue. In many custom created jobs, specifically TDMs, start points are not what they're supposed to be. In fact it seems to utilize random spawns just like it would a normal death match. This got me thinking, it's been like this a while and I wonder if it has anything to do with the fix of spawn points on Cps in races (you can adjust the direction again, before it was bugged). It also has me wondering if all previously created jobs (on or before that issue perhaps) are affected. A number of jobs, mine included have been affected by this. However new ones, as far as I can tell anyway, don't seem to be. Any thoughts? I haven't had …

LTS creation help needed
by MrBump360- 7 replies

Hi Guys and Gals, so I'm trying to create an LTS. I have used stacking to create a flying structure, now I want to place vehicles for the teams to use and it is telling me that I can't because of stacking? Is there a simple way around this? I'm trying to place start points in the air above my play area, the idea is that each team gets a platform, each player get's into a car on that platform and then drops off the into the play area to launch the LTS proper. I am using the large buoy platform, is that the reason, do I need to use something else? thanks for any help, advice. Also thanks if you just point me at the thread where this has been discussed a million times b…

I've checked the weather forecast and it seems that snow is heading for Los Santos. This is the perfect time for some dedicated snow jobs for our playlists. I've just updated a race I made for the snow last year plus I've just made a melee only deathmatch to be used as a snowball fight. Does anyone have any other jobs that will be good in the snow, you can even make one if you have the time!

The Ultimate Destruction Derby?
by Squirrel- 2 followers
- 9 replies
- 1.3k views
The destruction derbies we host are fun but everyone we make is flawed in one way or another, either lack of voice communication, difficulties when deciding a winner or people eliminated early having nothing to do while they wait for the event to finish. I've tried making 3 different styles of DD, the capture one does work just hampered by lack of voice and it's too easy to get another car or have the mid air craziness. The TDM version works well too but the ultimate winner usually isn't the last surviving car. The race version didn't really work that well. What I'd like some input on is what would make the ultimate DD event? Now that we have improved creator tool…

Eeeeek, got a bit of an issue here. I'm making a capture and am in the process of placing the actors. Now I've placed two of them on top of a prop, but wasn't too happy about that. So in all my wisdom, I decided to remove the actors. But by doing so, I accidentaly removed the prop and not the actor. Result is now some dude floating in mid air and I can't find a way to delete said actor or put a prop back underneath him. Any idea how to get this sorted? Pls don't say reload your last save

Placing On Props

Im working on a job right now and have run into a problem. I need to place team start points, and weapon pick-ups on top of props (similar to in RvI). I keep getting the messages "area must be clear" and "cannot stack". Ive tried placing directly onto the props, and placing on the ground and then moving them. Ive tried in capture (capture object, spawn points, weapons), LTS (spawn points, weapons), and race (CP, weapons). Is there some trick to placing things on top of props, or is it no longer possible?

New Capture Creation Questions
by LN-MLB- 5 replies
- 1.2k views
I've been trying to work on a capture lately, and I've run into a couple of things. 1) Is there no longer a way to edit or move a prop once it has been placed? I know I'm not losing my mind (or maybe I am), but I remember before the latest creator update, there was an option to move or edit the prop once it was on the ground or surface. That seems to be gone now. Unless I am missing something, it seems that you are forced to delete the prop and must place a new one instead. I wouldn't have an issue with that, but it seems to eat up the Model Memory... 2) That is my next concern--Model Memory Limit. I've googled through articles about this, and one person post…

Squirrels Random Idea Thread

I keep having crazy ideas in my sleep and I need somewhere to write them down and then can work out if they are feasible or fun enough to be developed into something more. If anyone wants to contribute they can do. First crazy idea which has just come to me is a recreation of the Death Star Trench Assault. I think it would need to be based on a capture. Not sure if it should be GTA or Contend. I'd use the LS river as the actual trench and have actors throughout the whole length with miniguns/RPGs to use as lazer emplacements. One team (Rebels) would attempt to fly down the trench trying to get the object (Torpedos) to the target (Thermal exhaust port) while t…

Bikerchute - testing the principle

I hope it's OK to post this here. It's not anything like a proper race, but I would like a couple of people to test something to see if they encounter the same bug that I do. I have reported this to Rock Star support but they have asked if anyone else can test it to make sure it's not just a problem with my PS3. Made on PS3, but I would appreciate someone trying it on PS4 as well. GTA p2p bike race. 2 players (but meant to be done solo for a crew challenge) RSC link http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/member/spike180/games/gtav/jobs/job/EkUQOqbVoEyLtS3sCCO2ww?platformId=2 I have made this as short as possible just for testing the concept.

Creating Race Kerbs (PS4)
by Squirrel- 5 replies
- 2.3k views
Race barriers can be a bit of a contentious issue. We often use tyre walls and stacks as well as the concrete barriers to mark out the inside line of a corner. All have their issues and its not exactly the best method when creating a track. With the latest update we have now been given full 6 degrees of movement over props which means a lot more flexibility when creating a track. Not the best image but the only one I can find which shows the prop in question. This barrier when turned onto it's side and then embedded into the ground could be ideal for creating an inside kerb which would look and behave like a proper race kerb should. Those drivers skil…

Parachutes in GTA races
by djw180- 7 replies
- 2k views
I've been experimenting with making some special races in GTA mode, where you have to leave your vehicle. What I wanted to do was have a race where you jump off a mountain or big ramp, bale out and parachute to the end. So I made a couple of test races like this. I tested them in the creator (driving to the end because you can't bale out). Then I tried playing them properly. The first run of them is OK. But if I restart the job on the 2nd and any further re-runs there is no parachute. I jumped off my bike and just fell to the ground. So I went back to the creator and put some parachutes along the course. Tried again, as I drive through a parachute there's a message saying…

I want to mention this as it can be quite frustrating. When placing dynamic props, and trying to move or delete the prop I sometimes get in a props category called just <> instead of <Dynamic>. Once this has happened, even if i manage to get back and create without any issues, it messes things up. The thing i noticed several times is that after this has happened when i run a test i will not get back to the creator. Once i exit the test i get a black screen and a loading circle down in the corner. This last forever and i have to end application (GTA) in order to use the ps4. If this is done before saving a creation you have lost everything.

Preferred air race type (poll)
by JustHatched- 2 followers
- 19 replies
- 1.5k views
Just a quick poll as I have some air races in mind, but I also know most of my air races are a bit more complex than most which requires CP's to be placed in areas where respawning is difficult (don't crash right?). I putting this poll up to see what is preferred, you can't get better keeping them simple is my thoughts, but I also don't want to make something people hate because the respawns are tough. Vote, or post your thoughts

How do you read CPs while racing?

- 1.1k views
Here is a very handy guide for those that haven't made many races or would like to compare how they make their tracks. It is pinned on this site but I'm sure it doesn't get read much. http://www.domesticbatterygta.com/topic/1127-guide-to-checkpoint-placement/ My question is, how do you read a CP during a race that you haven't done before? Do you use it as a rough guide of where to go and use the map to tell you the road or do you just generally know the area? A lot of creators struggle with objectively viewing their race because they know the track and expect others to just know it. G, Snacks and I have been talking and giving feedback to each other's tracks and it has…

Our PS4 attendance list has been growing in numbers the past couple of weeks. Yay! There are a few playlist hosts bumping their attendee lists to 20 players. What's that mean? We need jobs that hold more than 16 players. A majority of you already create jobs that can hold 20+ people. Awesome! Make sure your tags are correct so hosts are able to find your jobs easier.

How do you come up with names?
by ScottyB- 1 follower
- 6 replies
- 1.1k views
For the most part, names are easy enough to come up. If you're using a certain vehicle, part of the map or have specific captures, you can come up with a simple and catchy name. I'm finding it a bit difficult to come up with names now, especially for races. I could easily call it the area and GP, but that's getting old now. How do you come up with fun and exciting names for your jobs?

104Rate the Last Film you Watched 2: Electric Boogaloo
What I Watched This Week #119 (April 8-14) Dune: Part Two dir. Denis Villeneuve/2024/2h47m Picking up right where the first film left off, Dune: Part Two sees Paul Atreides (Timothee Chalamet) and his mother Lady Jessica (Rebecca Ferguson) now living with the Fremen in the deserts of Arrakis, launching attacks on the brutal House Harkonnen. Meanwhile, he is also struggling with the idea of being “the chosen one” and what that means for the future and how it will affect the woman he loves, the Freman Chani (Zendaya). This is an exceptionally crafted film with the costumes and sets feeling real and lived in and it has some stunning photography that really emphasises a grand sense of scale fitting for such an epic tale. I also found it pretty dull with everyone delivering their lines in an intense whisper that got pretty grating after a while. It's also unsatisfying in the sense that it's the middle section of the story and so feels like it's spinning plates just to keep them in play for the third part. I also really disliked Austin Butler as Feyd-Rautha whose characterisation is reduced to “look at me I'm so evil look at me stab these innocent people”. I really don't get the hype. 6/10 Head dir. Bob Rafelson/1968/1h26m Head is a follow up to The Monkee's TV show and, like that show, stars the band as themselves getting caught up in madcap situations. What makes this fascinating is that this is an early New Hollywood film and is incredibly meta and part of the counterculture. Throughout the film – which was produced and co-written by Jack Nicholson - the band, who were created by director Rafelson, are constantly trying to break out of whatever situation they find themselves in and prove that they're real people not some manufactured product, but every rebellious action they perform turns out to be pre-determined and leads the film to end where it began. s*x, drugs and the Vietnam war being explicitly mentioned makes this a markedly different product from their show and large portions of this film are more surreal and LSD-inspired than anything The Beatles ever did, which is saying something. 8.5/10 Pain and Glory dir. Pedro Almodóvar/2019/1h54m Antonio Banderas stars as Salvador Mallo, a director reaching the end of his career and is breaking down both physically and mentally. The restoration of one of his old films leads to him reminiscing about his childhood and his mother (Penelope Cruz), a relationship he had in the 80's and his friendship with the star of the restored film who he has not spoken to since making it. A deeply personal film that unfolds the history of its main character like a beautiful puzzle box, and I loved discovering every new facet to this man. Banderas is amazing in this role, the entire history of this character laid bare in every expression and movement. This is easily the best performance he's ever given. This is also a gorgeous looking film that is absolutely slathered in Almodóvar's trademark violent, passionate reds. It also has a brilliant ending that had me grinning from both how clever and how optimistic it is. 9/10 Yannick dir. Quentin Dupieux/2023/1h7m Yannick (Raphael Quenard) is a car-park attendant who has chosen to spend his one night off at the theatre watching a comedic play. The only problem is that he doesn't find it very entertaining, and so stands up and tells the actors what he thinks. Things only get worse from there. This may be the most normal film from Dupieux, whose previous work includes Rubber, a film about a killer tyre, and Deerskin, a film about a jacket who wants to be the only jacket in the world. That doesn't stop this from being delightfully absurd, with the situation escalating in unexpected ways. Quenard is great in the lead, his character veering between affable geniality and threatening malice with terrifying ease. I spent the barely an hour runtime of this film going between agreeing with him and wanting someone to punch him in the kidney. The direction really does a good job of keeping the one location interesting and the abrupt ending is the perfect punchline. If you're looking for some bizarre and totally unique films then you should check out the work of Quentin Dupieux and this would be a great starting point. 9/10 Lime's Film of the Week! Yellow Canary dir. Herbert Wilcox/1943/1h34m (can't find a trailer so here's the whole film instead) Sally Maitland (Anna Neagle) is a socialite from a wealthy family who have disowned her because she is a n*zi sympathiser. On a boat to Canada she meets Polish officer Jan Orlock (Albert Lieven), who is part of a secret n*zi spy ring which he invites Sally to join. The catch; she's actually a British spy in deep cover. A decent wartime thriller full of twists and turns, this starts off really strong with an arresting opening scene that sets Sally up as the ultimate traitor, but a lot of the film gets bogged down with a romantic subplot involving a British officer sent to tail her. Thankfully there are some fun supporting characters to add some levity and variety, my favourite being Margaret Rutherford, who I recently loved watching in a series of Miss Marple films, as a feisty old woman who kicks a n*zi after he calls her an old sow. 7/10 Trenque Lauquen dir. Laura Citarella/2022/4h20m Trenque Lauquen stars Laura Parades as Laura, a woman who catalogues rare flowers for the council. When she suddenly disappears her boyfriend Rafael (Rafael Spregelburd) and her colleague Ezequiel (Ezequiel Pierri) start searching for her. What unfolds over the next four and a half hours is like a nesting doll of mysteries within flashbacks within mysteries within flashbacks. This film is absolutely hypnotic with its storytelling, the deliberate pacing parcelling out questions and answers like the ebbing tide. The structure of this film really helps with that, being non-linear and broken up into chapters. Parades is fantastic in the lead, feeling like a real enigma, like you're always just one step behind her. This is a film that's worth your time. 9/10 Sweet Charity dir. Bob Fosse/1969/2h29m Sweet Charity, adapted from the Broadway play, is a musical version of Federico Fellini's Night's of Cabiria – brilliant film, 10/10 from me – and stars Shirley MacLaine as the titular Charity, a nightclub “dancer” who life chooses to sh*t on constantly but she always remains hopeful and quick to love despite that. This being a Fosse film it is full of incredibly distinctive choreography and jazz hands all over the place. He doesn't care if it makes sense to have a dance routine, he's going to have one dammit, and it's gonna be so good you'll thank him for it. The presentation of the song Hey Big Spender is so good, it's both s*xy and sensual while being awkwardly angular. MacLaine is a natural in the lead role, taking every hit on the chin and facing her troubles with a smile. That just makes the times when she lets her sadness show even more affecting, such as at the end of the If They Could See Me Now number. Throw in Ricardo Montalban as a sleazy Italian movie star and Sammy Davis Jr. as Big Daddy, leader of a cult of flower power hippies, and you've got a good time. 9/10- 2
