not sure if it's placebo but I found that if you delete the gta5 executable and verify files it automatically removes the mods

is it possible to hook a ps4 controller to pc gta it wont recognize my controller on gta but will in other games

[tight moth]

hey i just bought GTA on steam last night. i tried running it but the rockstar launcher would open then immediately close. then steam would just say its “running”. but i couldn’t access the game anywhere and i checked in task manager and it said it was running. anyone got any advice

someone please help me 😭🙏

[pulsar zodiac]

Restart your PC then open task manager then kill steam then open the Rockstar Games Launcher and press play on steam

If that doesn't work then delete the gta5.exe file in the game file directory and verify files in steam using the guide in pins then try again

[tight moth]

so i restarted my pc, killed steam, then i tried opening the rockstar games launcher and it popped up for a split second and then disappeared. it says it’s running in my task manager

[pulsar zodiac]

ok try the other one

[tight moth]

just tried it and neither worked

i’m thinking it could be something to do with the onedrive bug

[pulsar zodiac]

in pins?

[tight moth]

yeah cause i don’t really know what else it could be

[pulsar zodiac]

it's rarely onedrive but it's also possible

can you send a screenshot of the Rockstar Games folder in Documents here

[tight moth]

the documents folder in the onedrive?

there’s nothing in the documents folder

it’s just stuck on “working on it”

[pulsar zodiac]

That's not a good indicator

That's probably the issue

Try to refresh is it still working on it

[tight moth]

just refreshed it, now it just says "this folder is empty"

theres no rockstar file in it

[pulsar zodiac]

Well the launcher needs the folder to function

[tight moth]

ive also tried uninstalling, reinstalling twice

[pulsar zodiac]

game or launcher

[tight moth]

verified files a couple times now

[tight moth]

both launcher, social club, and game

[pulsar zodiac]

If you can screenshare I could probably take a better look

[tight moth]

yeah sure im down to do that

[eager crystal]

i cant join gta online, i keep getting error even in a private session

[cloud cairn]

Can you request card from maze bank tower no more ?

[fading cape]

i was gonna put a warning about that being a scam but anyone who clicks on that is just natural selection at this point

[bitter oxide]

can anyone help, any mission or session i try to join using invites it keeps showing this

[low flame]

1. Join a Public Session

2. Invite from Friends:

3. Create Your Own Session:

4. Check Network Settings:

NAT Type (check your NAT Type):

Open NAT: This is the ideal setting for online gaming. It allows for the best connectivity with other players.

Moderate NAT: This is acceptable but may cause some connectivity issues.

Strict NAT: This can cause significant connectivity issues and should be avoided.

4.1-Wired Connection:

If possible, use a wired Ethernet connection instead of Wi-Fi. This provides a more stable and faster connection.

4.2- DNS settings

Use reliable DNS servers such as Google DNS (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) or OpenDNS (208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220).

5. Restart the Game
6. Contact Rockstar Support

[light heath]

hii i need help with this problem

i cant open rockstar launcher and i see this message "rockstar games launcher failed to initialize"

i tried everything

-disable antivirus, firewall
-reinstall the launcher in other disk
-scan of ram with diagnostic of windows
-compatibility with win 7 and 8
-reinstall gta in steam and try with gta of epic
-contact with support of rockstar

and alot of things more

but any solution.....

[twilit sandal]

Rockstar games launcher is giving me an error message saying that it is already open and i need to close it and try to open it again but i haven't opened it and when i check task manager i cant end the task and it says there 2-3 rockstar game launchers open at the same time please help this has been happening for a couple of days now

[pulsar zodiac]

open cmd as admin then taskkill /f /im Launcher.exe /T

All the instances should close right away with an error

If they couldn't be terminated you can kill the Rockstar Game Library Service in services.msc

[pulsar zodiac]

So the launcher just fails to initialize in any way

[light heath]

yes... but its very rare

[pulsar zodiac]

Can you send the launcher.log file here from the Rockstar Games folder in Documents

[twilit sandal]

its saying it cant be terminated because there is no instances of the task

[pulsar zodiac]

Do this instead

Then restart your PC and run the command just incase

[twilit sandal]

its saying the same thing but also saying access is denied

[untold path]

can someone help me with my trevor model

[wet raptor]

i play on pc and my gta screen wont maximize and when i forcefully maximize i lag and my cursor is slow, how to fix?

[low flame]

7 is a last resort bro

1. Update Graphics Drivers: Ensure your GPU drivers are up to date.
2. In-Game Settings:
   • Set resolution to match your monitor.
   • Toggle V-Sync.
   • Try windowed borderless mode.
3. Windows Settings:
   • Set display scaling to 100%.
   • Enable Game Mode.
   • Disable fullscreen optimizations (Right-click GTA V executable > Properties > Compatibility).
4. Background Processes:Close unnecessary programs in Task Manager.
5. Power Settings: Set to High Performance.
6. Update Game:Ensure GTA V is up to date.
7. Reinstall Game: As a last resort.
8. Check Overheating:Ensure proper ventilation and clean your PC.
9. Lower Graphics Settings:Reduce in-game graphics settings.
10. Software Conflicts:Ensure no other software is interfering.

[wet raptor]

i did 7 like 5 hours ago and its still like that but i'll try these other methods

[wet raptor]

what resolution should i set it too? my monitor is 24 inchs

[pulsar zodiac]

This looks like an awful chatgpt list

[fading cape]

True that

[low flame]

Honestly if you do it again probably do 7 last. Worst case scenario is it’s a hardware failure 😭

There could be a failing component in your PC, such as the GPU, CPU, or RAM, which might need replacement.

[low flame]

Set the Resolution to match your monitor’s native resolution (e.g., 1920x1080 or 2560x1440).

[wet raptor]

i'm not even able to apply these settings from how much im lagging

[low flame]

has this just started today?

Specifically the “lagging”

[wide yarrow]

how can i use a ps4 controller on pc

[low flame]

Personally I use bluetooth but you can use a micro-USB cable to connect your PS4 controller to your PC

[low flame]

I'm off for a bit but let me know how it goes ur welcome to DM

[pulsar zodiac]

It doesn't work like that

First you ask them what Launcher they have and if it isn't steam they have to use ds4windows to emulate an Xbox controller since there is no native support

[wet raptor]

like when a i move around it takes ages to execute, and when i pause and move my mouse to click on things it delays

[orchid ledge]

Is it a bug that I can't see auto shops on the maze bank app? Or are they gone now

[low flame]

Is your PC overheating? By any chance

[wispy linden]

my pause menu settings keep resetting every time i restart the game

is there any way to fix this

[wet raptor]

think it was a bug runs smoothly now

[limpid tide]

tf?

[limpid tide]

any solution for this?

[wide yarrow]

check your gpu drivers for updates thats how i solved my issue

[fading cape]

um yeah nothing we can do

good luck 👍

probably on rockstar website under accounts and payments or something around those lines

ok?

whats that got to do with it

you might also be able to manage it in ps5 payment settings

[unreal totem]

I just bought an overflod pipistrello on GTA online. However, when I try to customize it at LS customs or my mechanic shop it says "This vehicle cannot be modified" despite already going into LA customs with it.

[formal gulch]

Try changing the session to invite only

[unreal totem]

Doesn't work

Is there at least a way to sell it without being able to go into LS Customs

[inland veldt]

Does anyone know why even though i have texture quality set to very high, everything is like smoothed out

[radiant badge]

Does anyone know how to get self radio to recognize long mp3s? I know people who have whole 3+ hour podcasts in theirs, but as soon as I try to slap in a full GTA VCS radio station the game just refuses to believe it's there

I've tried going below the bitrate max too, still just does not work

nevermidn i think i figured it ut

[pure ocean]

How can i get out of black screen loop

Spinning circles

[radiant badge]

iirc trying to join someone through the r* menu may work

i know that worked on consoles, not sure if it does on pc

[pure ocean]

What is r menu

[radiant badge]

the home menu

[ionic cape]

can someone help me i had a garage filled with cars and know their gone i cant access them anywhere

[rich acorn]

your save data could not be loaded from rockstar clouyd servers at this time. ANY FIX?

[wet raptor]

need help

[pulsar zodiac]

?

[wet raptor]

I start gta and it says says rockstar launcher isnt initialized

[pulsar zodiac]

open the Rockstar Games Launcher by itself does it work

[wet raptor]

yes

[pulsar zodiac]

launch the game from it

Do you get the same error

[wet raptor]

yes

[pulsar zodiac]

where do you own the game

[wet raptor]

steam

[pulsar zodiac]

So you get the same error when you press play on steam inside of the Rockstar Games Launcher

[wet raptor]

and it says i need a key

[wet raptor]

yeah

[pulsar zodiac]

ok go to the game files directory and look for PlayGTAV.exe and press once then right click then properties then go to compatability and see if it's enabled

If it isn't enabled then go the Rockstar Games folder in Documents and search for Launcher.log and send it here

[wet raptor]

PlayGTAV.exe dont have that

[pulsar zodiac]

scroll down you will find it

if you don't have it then verify the game files using the guide in pins

[wet raptor]

found it

i need a key

[pulsar zodiac]

what does it say

[wet raptor]

rockstar games key from my acc

[pulsar zodiac]

but that has nothing to do with checking compatibility

[wet raptor]

what should I do then

[pulsar zodiac]

Just send a screenshot of what it says

here

[pulsar zodiac]

go to steam then right click on the game in the left corner then properties/Manage then CD key and copy and paste the key in

If it's already used contact Rockstar Support at https://support.rockstargames.com

we can't help with account issues

Only Rockstar support can

[wet raptor]

ok thanks,good day

[gleaming solar]

Hey all, currently playing with my friend, we are on the same network but i am on a vpn, we are in the same lobby but cant see each other

so we played with each other for the firt time yesterday, it worekd while we did a bounty mission, i entered the location it booted us both from the mission and since we cant join each other properly and cant see each other on the map

[sullen rivet]

What frame limiter setting should I use in RTSS? There are:

• async
• front edge sync
• back edge sync
• NVIDIA reflex

[low flame]

If this is for gta online (which I would assume)

Back Edge Sync

setting will help reduce screen tearing and provide smoother frame pacing

[sullen rivet]

Appreciate it 👍

[low flame]

Np 🙏

Hey i wanna do the cayo perico heist and i did all the intel and preps and now i am on the finale and i cant select my plans like i go to the approach vehicle and i cant select the kosatka.Can someone help me?

[urban panther]

[pulsar zodiac]

[untold path]

Hi
i know i asked for help about my gta account yestrday
i got help but rockstar support wouldn't believe that its my account that got banned
i sent them my email and the proof of me changing my email and the hacker changing my email
i opened a ticket 5 time they all respond " we couldn't verify the owner of this account "

and when he changed my email rockstar didn't let me know what email has changed to

it just said " you wont recive email on this mail "

i got hacked at 19/5 and to this day i can't get it back so if someone can help me pls help

[low flame]

Was your account banned before you got hacked?

[untold path]

No

[low flame]

Hmnmm, and the account is definitely yours; you did not buy it from some shady website?

[untold path]

i bought it from g2a

[low flame]

There’s the issue

[untold path]

how?

it was 0 progress

like new new

I even linked it

[low flame]

How much money was in the account?

[untold path]

0

It was new

I made money and like that

I bought it from g2a cuz i have subscription

[low flame]

When you first “purchased” the account was their an email associated with it?

[untold path]

No

[low flame]

Honestly considering you’ve already reached out to R*. You can request to escalate your ticket to a supervisor or higher-level support.

[untold path]

but they did that

and said " we couldn't verify the owner of this account "

everytime

[low flame]

Yeah if you’ve had the ticket escalated and they’re still saying that. Not sure what other alternatives you have, if any, other than starting over.

[untold path]

i did have 3 accounts before one got banned cus hacker was in lobby and two others got hacked

[jagged shore]

guys whenever somebody invites me to their lobby or sends a mission invite from another lobby i cant see it neither on my phone nor my rockstar app

[potent hare]

If you're experiencing network issues when launching GTA Online try the following steps:

1. Shut down and restart your modem or router, this can often solve networking issues quickly.
2. Use an alternative connection such as mobile data or a different network if you have one available.

• For more details, refer to the [Offline Mode Guide](#gta-tech-support message)

If nothing works, you may contact Rockstar Support so they can attempt to help you unblock your connection, and if you can't access https://socialclub.rockstargames.com/ You have to use either a VPN or a different network connection.

GTA Tech Support Guides

**Offline Mode Guide - All Platforms**

This guide will explain how to fix the Offline Mode issue and why it happens on all platforms with solutions.

• Introduction
  Why does the issue happen?: Rockstar Games occasionally blocks suspicious traffic to protect the security of their services. Traffic from your current network may be temporarily blocked for several reasons, including your IP sending bad traffic such as latency or malicious data, or an IP address being assigned by your ISP to multiple customers, one of whom is sending bad traffic, resulting in a temporary IP Block.

You might receive one of these errors due to the issue (Click to view screenshots):

• The rockstar games services are unavailable right now

• Files required to play GTA Online could not be downloaded from the Rockstar Games Service

• Your save data could not be loaded from the Rockstar Games Service

• Unable to load Social Club websites

• Offline Mode: could not establish connection in Rockstar Games Launcher

• Activation data could not be loaded while in Offline Mode

• Social Club failed to start because of an incomplete installation

• GTAV is offline when opening the Social Club menu

• Social Club failed to initialize

• Possible Solutions - All Platforms:
  1 - Try restarting your router: This helps in obtaining a new IP address as mentioned before in the introduction to remove the active temporary block. Wait for two minutes before powering the router on.

2 - Try to use a different internet connection: Using a different internet connection such as a Hotspot, might help with obtaining a different IP address since it's running on a different configuration.

3 - Try to use a custom DNS: This can help with changing what your IP address connects to receive data from servers which may help with the issue. Here's a guide on how to do this for each platform: Xbox and PlayStation, and PC. It's recommended to use the Cloudflare DNS which uses Primary DNS: 1.1.1.1 and Secondary DNS: 1.0.0.1, But you could also try others such as the Google DNS.

4 - [Follow the cache clear guide](#gta-tech-support message): It could be cached in while there's no actual connection block.

5 - Use a VPN: a VPN such as Cloudflare WARP could help with changing your IP address reliably, However there might be some issues while using a VPN for more information use !vpn. There isn't a direct way to use it on console so a custom DNS is more recommended, but it might be required to contact Rockstar Support if the website won't load with the link in the next solution.

6 - Contact Rockstar Support: They might be able to unblock your connection or provide specific information related to your current configuration.

7 - Check the service status: The Rockstar Game Services might be down, which can cause the issue. You can check the service status at #🟢services-up or at the Rockstar Service Status Page and Downdetector.

8 - Wait for a while (a day or more): Most routers use a dynamic IP address which changes overtime, So if the none solutions worked for you, It's one of the last things to try. This is recommended before any of the unstable advanced solutions below.

**Advanced - Console specific**

9 - (Xbox Only) - Clear Alternate MAC Address: It's located in the Settings app at Network settings then Advanced settings and the console should restart.

10 - Clear your local saved data
Xbox: Press the options button hovering over the game on the Main Menu, then go to Manage game & add-ons > Saved data > Press on your local profile data then only delete it locally and proceed to launch the game again.

PlayStation: Go to settings then Application Saved Data Management > Saved Data in System Storage and locate the game then proceed to delete the local data and relaunch the game.
Note: This may clear in-game settings.

11 - (PlayStation Only) - Rebuild Database in Safe Mode: This can be done by turning off your PlayStation console, then hold the power button until you hear two beeps and connect a controller to the console and go to Rebuild Database then proceed.

**Advanced - PC (inconsistent)**

12 - Refresh your network settings using a script: Download it using Ctrl + Shift + S then run it as an administrator or run it manually.

13 - [Follow the clean uninstallation guide](#gta-tech-support message): This helps with clearing cached data from the Rockstar Games Launcher which could cause the issue.

14 - Remove any restrictions in Windows Security for Rockstar Games and or Social Club.

15 - Clear in-game settings: Delete pc_settings.bin in Documents by using the path: C:\Users\YourUserName\Documents\Rockstar Games\GTA V\Profiles\YourProfile\pc_settings.bin and for OneDrive if it exists.

**- Conclusion**

This issue has no definitive solution as it depends on a lot of factors with different routers and configurations. However, these are the most consistent solutions that've worked reliably for people.

GTA Tech Support Guides

Rockstar Games Launcher failed to initialize followed by unable to launch game - PC

This guide will explain why the issue happens with all the possible reasons and solutions on how to fix it.

• Introduction
  Why does the issue happen?: Usually the issue happens due to an improper or corrupted installation of the Rockstar Games Launcher. However, the launcher has ended support for Windows 7, 8, and 8.1 and will show the issue if launched on those versions and or in that compatibility mode.

You may receive one of these errors due to the issue (Click to view screenshots):

• The Rockstar Games Launcher failed to initialize, please contact Rockstar Support for more information. - #1 - #2

• Unable to launch game, please verify your game data.

• Failed to initialize critical data, please contact Rockstar Support for more information

• Windows 10 and above unsupported error in launcher.log (LAUNCHER_ERR_UNSUPPORTED_WINDOWS_VERSION)

• Possible solutions:
  1 - Check for compatibility mode: As mentioned before, Windows may automatically enable compatibility mode for important files. Start by going to the game files directory and Rockstar Games Launcher directory by using the following methods.

Game Files Directory:
Steam: Go to Library and right-click on GTAV in the games list then click Properties/Manage and go to Local Files and click Browse like shown in the image.
Epic Games Launcher: Go to Library and press the three dots for the game and click Manage then press the Folder icon next to the Uninstall button in the installation category.
Rockstar Games Launcher: Open the launcher and go to Settings then press on My installed Games and click Open next to View installation folder like shown in the image.

Open Rockstar Games Launcher directory:
Use Windows key + R
cmd /c for /f "tokens=3*" %a in ('reg query "HKLM\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Rockstar Games\Launcher" /v InstallFolder') do start "" "%a %b" exit
then OK

In the game files directory, scroll down to find PlayGTAV.exe and GTA5.exe, proceed to click each once then right-click and click Properties. Go to the compatibility tab at the top of the new window and untick Run this program in Compatibility Mode then press OK like shown in the image. If compatibility mode is enabled but is grayed out or unable to be edited then press on Change settings for all users and the option should become avaliable. Proceed to do the same steps in the Rockstar Games Launcher directory for: Launcher.exe, LauncherPatcher.exe, RockstarSteamHelper.exe, RockstarService.exe and RockstarErrorHandler.exe

2 - [Follow the clean uninstallation guide](#gta-tech-support message): This should remove any missing or corrupted files to make the launcher run properly and as intended.

3 - Remove any restrictions or blocks in Windows Security or Windows Defender Firewall: Start by searching for them in Windows Search using Win + S then proceed to check if there are any restrictions related to Social Club or Rockstar Games or GTAV executables which could block the launcher from running. Make sure to check any other active anti-viruses that you have installed.

4 - Delete GTA5.exe in the game files directory and proceed to verify the game files using the provided [guide](#gta-tech-support message): This ensures the verification process looks in the entire directory for any missing files.

5 - Use the Rockstar Games Launcher: If the game won't work using the shortcut or other launchers, then this should launch the game.

[pulsar zodiac]

[short sable]

I can connect the g923 to play and fivem not working too

[pulsar zodiac]

so what happens when you connect it

The game doesn't detect it?

or is it only fivem that doesn't

[wet raptor]

i cant connect to gta online

[pulsar zodiac]

Follow this guide @wet raptor

[wet raptor]

tried eveerything

still not working

[analog ibex]

used 5th, cloudflare warp. This works as a temporary fix until my dynIP changes, thanks, this helped!

[pulsar zodiac]

👍

[pulsar zodiac]

did you try the advanced methods

[wet raptor]

im doing the cloudfarre thing

[pulsar zodiac]

you just said you tried everything tho

[wet raptor]

not 15

sorry

[robust umbra]

Hello, Guys how to fix this problem whenever I try to open internet from the mobile it says the internet app is currently unavailable, please try again later. And I just want to redeem my criminal enterprise pack, which I'm unable to. Please assist or help.

Is there a option to restart the in-game phone of gta5? I only tried restarting my pc and the game

[sullen rivet]

I think he's talking about the mobile phone in-game 😅

[low flame]

Just realised 😂 I read that literal asf

[robust umbra]

Can u still help with my problem btw?

[low flame]

I’d personally contact rockstar support

https://support.rockstargames.com/articles/1500006770702/Criminal-Enterprise-Starter-Pack-code-not-working-for-GTAV-Premium-Edition-on-PS4

[robust umbra]

This is a problem with the game or my side or does it happen with everyone

Im on pc

And I have redeemed the gun etc things and the money

Just the cars , properties etc are not available as they are on internet, and its not working

[sullen rivet]

You got 1 million?

[robust umbra]

Yes

[sullen rivet]

Have you completed the tutorial?

[robust umbra]

I got the criminal enterprise pack, but I need to redeem the cars and properties too, I have completed tutorial and have already redeemed the free guns that I get + got the email that criminal enterprise pack has been added to my account

This what shows when I try to use the internet for getting the properties or the cars anything

Can u still help gtv?

[sullen rivet]

Your criminal enterprise pack is working completely fine. The problem is the internet app. Try restarting the game. If it doesn't help then verify the game files. If nothing helps then contact support to get some help

[robust umbra]

I have tried restarting the game many times i even gave it 1 day cooldown, but still didn't work, I do think it could be smt with veryify the game files, how do I do that?

It was working fine before

Suddenly it stopped working

[sullen rivet]

Do you use steam or epic launcher?

[robust umbra]

Steam

This happened just now suddenly

[low flame]

PC looks like a nightmare

[sullen rivet]

Right click game -> properties -> installed files -> verify integrity

[robust umbra]

Yes it's dual screen that's why small

[robust umbra]

Also I kinda messed up the files locations, all the files are on my desktop due to which it created a big mess. Could you also assist with that?

Thanks both of u 🙏

[arctic fog]

It's typical

[quasi mural]

Help ... what to do? : "Out of game memory Please reboot and restart the game"

[sullen rivet]

Game bug, many people have. No need to worry and there's no way to fix it. Wait for rockstar to fix it

[sullen rivet]

I think it's best to leave them there

[low flame]

I agree there is an alternative but it’s kinda long winded

[robust umbra]

Ohokay thanks

Also my progress in gta 5 online is not saving, I have already redeemed the pack 5 times now (on the first day itself I got some of items + cash) now whenever I rejoin after playing for first time criminal enterprise content has been added to ur acc comes in email

[sullen rivet]

It's just a notification, nothing is added after your first time

[robust umbra]

Okay

This

Mb, this is not common right?? Its some kind of issue?

I tried it didn't work @gtv

[sullen rivet]

Contact Rockstar support

[robust umbra]

From Google?

[gritty walrus]

If my rockstar game launcher is vinculed with steam I can dowload gta from rocstar without dowloading steam? i have like this in rockstar

[severe lodge]

If you bought the through steam than you have to launch via steam

[untold path]

Why In the Second One wasn't like the first one?

[gritty walrus]

and if I bought via rockstar and steam and then its vinculed?

[untold path]

in the first one they said the email that it has changed to

[untold path]

and you can recover

[severe lodge]

What does vinculed mean

[untold path]

but here it didn't

[gritty walrus]

linked

i bought via steam and rockstar but rockstar is linked with steam I can dowload without steam and dowload from rockstar?

[severe lodge]

If you bought it twice than you have 2 accounts
1 needs steam to launch
And the other you don't need steam, but you have to login with ur r* bought account

[gritty walrus]

yeah but i lost steam and when I executed from steam it added me rockstar launcher account

but i bought from the same

and they are linked but idk if I can dowload from rockstar launcher and not steam cuz I lost steam account access

[severe lodge]

So you have 2 accounts linked with steam?

[gritty walrus]

no only rockstar account

[severe lodge]

Than just logout on ur r* launcher and login via ur r* bought game

[gritty walrus]

but if i install rockstar game launcher i will can play without steam?

[severe lodge]

If you login with ur r* bought account that ISNT linked with steam
Yes

[gritty walrus]

but if is it linked?

[severe lodge]

Than login at r* website and unlink that way

[gritty walrus]

how

[gritty walrus]

if i have like this is bcs i bought via rockstar right

bcs it says see progess

[untold path]

Can pls Someone help?

[severe lodge]

Go to your account profile and click ,,linked,,
There it shoulnt be connected with steam

[gritty walrus]

okay, but this?

[severe lodge]

1. You can see progress if you have linked with steam too
2. I don't understand that language

[gritty walrus]

so that means that I bought from rockstar

[severe lodge]

You can always just install the launcher and login and try playing

[gritty walrus]

okay

[severe lodge]

If it's connected via steam than there should be an error of some sort

[gritty walrus]

now where i unlink

[untold path]

i think you have to contact rockstar support to get it unlinked

[severe lodge]

Contact r* support and ask to unlink it, but you will have to buy it again, since they gonna delete that account permanently

[gritty walrus]

Sht first I try linked

[severe lodge]

I mean you said you had 2 accounts, right?

[gritty walrus]

Rockstar and steam

[pulsar zodiac]

@gritty walrus

my wifi is still functioning as per normal

[regal sigil]

whenever I play gta v, after two min, it completely freezes and does not unfreeze and I have to restart my pc for anything to work. I tried troubleshooting but nobody has has this issue before. Please help

I literally cant play the game AT ALL

[green pier]

guys i actually have gta in epic games that i claimed long back ago but now as i download it and try to login, it says the account has been linked already. so how do i approach rockstar and get solution for this.

main point : My Epic games account has already linked rockstar games with someother already when it was compromised by russian

[rich acorn]

i have a top end pc with 32gb of ddr5 but whenever i start gta everything on my pc starts to lag. typing is hell when i have gta in background. it takes so long to type in discord or google or anywhere. also i have 24gb of vram and only 3-4gb of vram is used in game

[bitter oxide]

well happens to me too although i have a shit pc, it fixes itself when i load into story mode or online in windowed borderless

[rich acorn]

seriously idk why i even play gta inspite of having so many issues, this game is addictive

[lavish pond]

i cant access gta, apparently my rockstar games launcher is in offline mode, but I have wifi connected... how do I go about this

[lavish pond]

if ur where i think ur from i think local servers down

[severe lodge]

Did you fix it?

[gritty walrus]

no

[gritty walrus]

i need wait to fix my pc

[pulsar zodiac]

use windowed borderless and turn off vsync and fxaa

[pulsar zodiac]

You can

If you have the game on Steam then just rename the game folder to something else

Then open the Rockstar Games Launcher and the prompt to install should be there

[pulsar zodiac]

Nothing that can really be done

[pulsar zodiac]

It's not down

check offline mode guide in pins

[night zenith]

Gta v directx12 when

[pulsar zodiac]

Probably never

[gritty walrus]

thxx

[night zenith]

Why is gta even so performance intensivd

[pulsar zodiac]

It isn't really

Any acceptable PC can run good FPS

The game is 9 years old on pc

[night zenith]

i get 50-110fps on 3440x1440 with max settings :(
It sometimes drops

[pulsar zodiac]

That's good

[night zenith]

50fps is good?

[pulsar zodiac]

You never want to go above 165 anyway

[night zenith]

Are you high

[pulsar zodiac]

The drop is bad probably from your settings

[night zenith]

or from the millions of npcs

[pulsar zodiac]

doesn't have much to do with it

[pulsar zodiac]

It's next gen console fps it's acceptable

But the drop from 110 is not good

[night zenith]

Geforce experience says this is the optimal resolution💀

[pulsar zodiac]

ignore GeForce experience it sucks in settings for any game

[night zenith]

True

[pulsar zodiac]

send screenshots of your settings here and maybe I can see what's making the drop

[night zenith]

later

[pulsar zodiac]

ok

[night zenith]

gta dlss when

Even xbox series x has fsr

[normal stream]

the game isn't exactly graphically intensive

[pulsar zodiac]

I'm pretty sure the game doesn't have fsr on xbox series

[night zenith]

ot does

[pulsar zodiac]

where proof

[night zenith]

FidelityFX

[pulsar zodiac]

that's one of the worst thumbnails I've seen and it isn't adequate proof of the game having fsr

[night zenith]

the graphic setting is literally called fidelity mode

[normal stream]

which has nothing to do with fidelityfx

[pulsar zodiac]

Fidelity Mode is a name and it doesn't stand for FidelityFX 💀

[pulsar zodiac]

why is that screenshot 144p

[night zenith]

its translation website thingy

i dont wanna change the language

[pulsar zodiac]

ok but just because it's called Fidelity doesn't indicate that it has fidelityfx

literally almost every game names their graphics options either Quality or Fidelity

[eager crystal]

gta online has been loading for 5 minutes.
normally it takes less than 1 minute.
im on pc please help me

[severe lodge]

Loading into a public or an inv only?

[eager crystal]

it just loaded after like 10 minutes

but once it loads it works

and its not my internet because i get 300mbps down

[severe lodge]

Are you loading into a public session or inv only

[eager crystal]

pub

[severe lodge]

[severe lodge]

Does it happens only this time or all the time

[eager crystal]

[pulsar zodiac]

Does it happen even when changing sessions

[static snow]

yeah and when i press "i understand" i get the "activation code already in use" and i can't change the code where it says the code.

[hollow plover]

yeah 😦

[pulsar zodiac]

contact Rockstar Support at https://support.rockstargames.com

if it doesn't work then just get a new one

[static snow]

what do i say to them?

[hollow plover]

i tried activating it and lagged out then it didn't work after that

[pulsar zodiac]

Use this custom link and it should be self explanatory just make it look professional https://support.rockstargames.com/categories/200013306?step=ec1acf27

Yo I’m trying to play a private lobby heist with my friend but every time either of us is hosting the lobby, both are having latency lags (when I drive around he doesn’t move and he doesn’t see me driving) Any fixes?

Yo im trying to do the cayo perico heist and i completed all the steps and now im on finale but i cant select my plans like in aproach vehicle i cant select kosatka that happenes with all the other as well resulting not to do the heist

[distant folio]

I want to log into my Social Club account, I have my email and password, but the only reason I can't log in is that I dont have access my email account because I forgot the personal information. Is there any way to fix this, I couldn't find anything on the Rockstar Help page

[pulsar zodiac]

You have to start the heist first and invite people then you can select

[pulsar zodiac]

contact support

[distant folio]

where can i do that?

[pulsar zodiac]

https://support.rockstargames.com

[wet raptor]

What if i want to play alone

[pulsar zodiac]

still start the heist

[wet raptor]

But if other people join

[wet raptor]

??

[pulsar zodiac]

they can only join if you invite them or leave matchmaking opened

[wet raptor]

No because i started it and other people joined

[pulsar zodiac]

turn matchmaking off and whoever joins you can kick if you don't want them

Just go to view players then press on the person you don't want then kick

You can also make matchmaking always closed by pausing the game then online then options and set matchmaking to closed

[wet raptor]

Thank you so much!

[pulsar zodiac]

If both are already using ethernet and are in the same region then sadly not

[pallid tartan]

we arent in the same region though

they're using a custom version of the Rockstar launcher you should try to join the mod server and ask them about it

[trail holly]

Yo guys can somebody help me? My gta was working just fine like a month ago now freezes for a sec and gets back to normal the problem is that it happens multiple times so i cant play right

I already reset my gpu and reinstalled the game

[pulsar zodiac]

Are you the guy from yesterday

[trail holly]

Yes

I just got from work

Sorry if im being to noisy with my shit but i tried a lot and cant play right

I know its kinda childish but im getting to fkn frustrated from this shit

[pulsar zodiac]

np

so you tried to verify the files and reset gpu

?

[trail holly]

Yes

[trail holly]

The first thing i do was verify files and then reset gpu

[pulsar zodiac]

did you try to delete settings.xml and pc_settings.bin

Also what are your specs

[trail holly]

Lemme try

[pulsar zodiac]

make sure game is closed

[pulsar zodiac]

you still there?

[trail holly]

Oh yeah sorry

[trail holly]

Its seems it worked but i still need to try the game

[pulsar zodiac]

Ok but what are your specs

[trail holly]

Amd ryzen 5 5600g 3.90 GHz
64 gb RAM
No vid card

[wet raptor]

By GPU, I assume you mean the onboard graphics?

[still scroll]

Hes has an iGPU

[pulsar zodiac]

he has

[still scroll]

Given that he has no dedicated GPU

[pulsar zodiac]

yes

[still scroll]

Still tho ryzen's iGPU's are more than capable of running gta 5

Even if its low settings

[pulsar zodiac]

so is it good

You've been playing for a while

[trail holly]

Like a month

[pulsar zodiac]

?

[trail holly]

I just played the bikers mission and it fucked up

[trail holly]

Oh sorry i missundertood

[trail holly]

What this files do?

[trail holly]

I can play even on ultra

I been playing the game like a month but a week ago its started doing that werid shit

[pulsar zodiac]

settings cache

You should get msi afterburner with rivatuner overlay to try and figure out a constant rate that could be causing it

[trail holly]

the only thing i recognized is that its started after im on a mission

[pulsar zodiac]

yep get the overlay and see if anything is getting overloaded when the mission starts then we can figure out how to stop it

[trail holly]

ty lemme try

[cunning egret]

@pulsar zodiac u are Great! BRO Thank You So Much U helped me alot i have been suffering for 2 days! U ARE GREAT! ❤️✨

[still scroll]

comfy is always great

[last iris]

So, I jsut finished all of the last dose missions and when I got into my Ocelot Virtue, it just disappeared. Its not in my garage or anything. Its just gone. I tried reloading into a new session and nothing there either

[glossy fjord]

Im trying to change my appearance but its says that ive done it too many times and theres a timer before i can change it again but the time is increasing instead of decreasing. Can anyone help?

[trail holly]

you know what fuck it this shit aint working

[paper surge]

any one else experiencing freezing of their game at random?

[fleet shadow]

how do you fix these blocky shadow things on pc? my settings are basically maxed out but I can't figure out what this is or why it happens

[noble jewel]

try increasing the shadows from advanced graphics
also id recommend playing on fullscreen.

[fleet shadow]

Both do nothing, shadows are already maxed out in advanced graphics

[sullen rivet]

Turn off shadows

[jolly olive]

I'm broke i need help from tech support ( Cayo Perico Scope out "Island glitches and i fall until the void consumes me" Help.)

[merry cliff]

What do I do I can’t join my friends invite sessions

this happened months ago but it got fixed, yet it came back

[sullen rivet]

Happened months ago
Came back now
Maybe it's random errors

[crimson wren]

does anyone know how to fix my issue with gta, in the menu it said "GTA is offline"?

[pulsar zodiac]

Check pins

[eager crystal]

my gta hours are displayed weirdly, whenever i restarted my pc it'll add 100 extra hours to the game, upon launching the game it gets magically fixed. ive played about 300 hours but whenever i reboot it says around 400. is there a known fix?

[echo acorn]

Whenever I boot up gta on my Xbox I can't select story mode or the other options when I'm on the screen to select to load in online or story mode or the 2x rp and cash events.

My controller works fine

[pulsar zodiac]

Which stats

[eager crystal]

steam

[pulsar zodiac]

What does it say in-game

[eager crystal]

same thing

i would imagine its a steam bug but idk where else to ask

[pulsar zodiac]

looks like it

Could probably ask Support about it if it annoys you that much

[pulsar zodiac]

so you can't change the default mode

[echo acorn]

I'll have to send a video of what I mean

[zenith cave]

Me and a friend are playing in a closed friend server . Both where up in sandy when 4 super cars and an oppressor where on the side of the road , just wondering if anyone can explain?

[pulsar zodiac]

probably remnants from one of the people who was in a public session and didn't restart their game

either way just both restart and start from a closed friend session then everything should be normal

[zenith cave]

That doesn’t make sense we both started form story mode . I don’t see the reason for restarting it wasn’t effecting anything it just seemed odd. I’d also like to mention that the liveries on them that weren’t able to get normally

[normal stream]

cheaters spawn cars as world entities which means they stick around between sessions

[zenith cave]

As a world entities would you still be able to drive them ?

[pulsar zodiac]

no as things like trees

part of the map basically

[zenith cave]

Ok . We could also drive them so

[pulsar zodiac]

yes

[zenith cave]

So it’s for what im understanding the cause off this is modders

[pulsar zodiac]

yes I said in the beginning remnants from them

[zenith cave]

Ah ok thanks

[proud surge]

can you cap your fps without turning on full screen

[pulsar zodiac]

use vsync but the best way is to use RTSS (rivatuner)

[proud surge]

my monitor is on 170 hz tho

imma look into whatever rtss is ig

hell yeah my gpu is no longer needlessly on 99 %

[echo acorn]

The controller works fine like I can use my Xbox and everything it's just I can't switch modes on gta

I have to go to settings and configure it

[pulsar zodiac]

oh you're using the Xbox One version on xbox series

yep that's what happens since the game loads way faster than intended and the options aren't supposed to show

It's supposed not to show you the options

If you click what you want right on startup it should work

But after 2-3 seconds it won't

[last iris]

So, I jsut finished all of the last dose missions and when I got into my Ocelot Virtue, it just disappeared. Its not in my garage or anything. Its just gone. I tried reloading into a new session and nothing there either

[violet relic]

What to do when nat is strict?

[normal stream]

depends on why it's strict

[west schooner]

Can I keep my pc on whilst it’s downloading gta overnight?

[hidden egret]

i try to boot the game and it says "rockstar games has failed to initalize". what do i do

[normal stream]

read the pinned guide

[hidden egret]

could have just told me to run it as admin

[normal stream]

i don't remember the contents of the guide

[young jay]

Anyone know how to fix this bug? It's been happening a lot lately.

[wet raptor]

Can someone help me, When people try joining my heist it says failed to join due to incompatible assets

[wet raptor]

[spring cave]

[tough flame]

[wet raptor]

Good dears
I have a PS3, I can play GTA V online.
Thank you

[pulsar zodiac]

what

are you asking if you can or if you are

You probably aren't because the servers shut down so I will assume the first option

[wet raptor]

I ask if it is possible since I own a playstation 3 I do not have a PC, PS4, ps5 or Xbox

[pulsar zodiac]

It's not

Have a good day

Unless you jailbreak your ps3 and use a mod

But it still won't be official online but custom servers

[wet raptor]

I am a newbie to this topic, I was seeing how I can play GTA V online and that is why I became a member of this page.

[pulsar zodiac]

The servers for ps3 and 360 shut down on Dec 16th 2021

[pulsar zodiac]

Check more here https://www.rockstargames.com/newswire/article/51989315o2aa3a/gta-online-for-playstation-3-and-xbox-360-will-shut-down-on-december-1

[wet raptor]

Yes, but on YouTube there is a certain Sonito who comments that an option and development of alternative servers are being developed on Discord.

[pulsar zodiac]

Like I told you if you have a jailbroken or modded 360 you can use custom servers

[wet raptor]

I only have a chipped play station 3

[white silo]

hah youll have to follow the video then

[wet raptor]

no le veo la gracia
