On the Eiger tracks, when driving in first person view, the mountain scenery in the rear view mirror is not there, it has been replaced by blocky blue/light blue skies. It looks dreadful. This bug was spotted in 2.03, but was fixed in 2.04, returned in 2.05 and is still there in 2.06.

Funny thing is if you drive in cockpit view, the rear view mirror and side mirrors show the mountain scenery!

It also has crept into the GT Academy 2012 Eiger track. No mountain scenery in the rear view mirror when driving first person.

Try it and see. It looks dreadful.

Considering that the mountain scenery has appeared in these Eiger tracks for all of the updates, then to disappear and then return only to disappear for 2.05 and 2.06, seems to suggest that there is some buggy code for showing rear view mirror graphics on the Eiger tracks in first person view.

Give it a go and you will see what I mean.

Hopefully this is added to the list of bugs on page 1 and Polyphony fix it - they have fixed it before, so fingers crossed.
 
Noticed last night that my Audi TT Coupe 3.2 quattro '07 cannot enter Tuning Prohibited races online. I switched to setting sheet B and C, no parts installed, no ballast added, everything defaulted, tires met regulations.

Makes me wonder if the suspension or gear ratios got tweaked, so mine are no longer default with no way to change them, car was bought pre 2.06 obvz

I'll have to buy a new one tonight and check it out.


Also, I've been lapping the ring with time and weather change and if a car falls slightly too far behind me his lights no longer appear in my mirrors, but if I look backwards, they are there. This is carried over from 2.05

@ mercgoat,

I also tried different settings to the sound, only to have it return as before to the odd output. It's for sure since 2.06 as I was just watching replays before the patch downloaded... Boo
 
I got a connection Issue with 2.06, every update has gone in no probs but installed this and get ID=2.2305 every window i go too, dont want to delete file and reinstall as its 11gb. Will try again later tho

I've heard reports of this with a handfull of cars, This makes me wonder if it's a glitch like you say. I've always assumed if people couldn't get their cars into a "stock" room it was due to some error on their part, but maybe its not.

I'll check out that '07 Audi later tonight as well.
 
Check your sound settings as in Large Room, Small Room etc. It may have unintentionally changed with the update and it makes a dramatic difference in the sound.

Elitedreamer is right. This bug is not fixed. Mine is set to "Living Room," which is correct, and my car's engine sound often drops to almost silent when I'm near other cars. After I've been away from them for a few seconds, there's a very noticeable ramp up back to the original volume.
 
Noticed tonight that the OCD was all over the place. It loaded up normal then it the order of cars completely changed before random cars that aren't supposed to be there appeared. Finally the screen went black and deleted my game save. I love my USB!!

I heard the same thing last night, following another car and as my friend accelerated away my sound vanished and then kind of faded back in.

Kind of like when using a recording device and there is a sudden loud noise, it takes a second for the sound to come back.
 
So...think I got it all

Fifo added your bug.

Blunt going to edit the sound post in major issues for yours

Puzom, could not replicate sun spot but Morgoth knows about it will put in hr.

Flogger going to add this to the controls disappearing bug but change it up a little.

Superblue I added it.

Menown I will add it but keep me updated.

Scottish and Younggun you are likely dealing with corruption to save game/game data.
 
Does freezing after a race mean black screen with the GT5 logo in the bottom right corner? If so I think it's happened to me since the patch. I can't confirm with absolute certainty though as all days seem to blend into each other for me right now.
 
Just found out invisible wall at Route X near pit lane is gone!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mistersafeway yes that would be some freezing. Let me know if it happens again. I know what you mean with days blending together.
 
Not sure if this is new but
TVR flip flop yellow is White

I use g27 i didn't have any trouble with anything, what kind of steering wheel do you use ?

hey, sorry for the late answer. I use the g25. but I haven't tried it for a day maybe it was just a short term prob if anyone else didnt' have it.

thanks guys. maybe i have to check my pedals.

regards Flow
 
I like the professional approach but I guess KY is not aware of all this great bug tracker work. I think Jordan could link this thread straight to Kazunori twitter account.
 
2.06 ruined controller vibration.. I can't feel the road surface. Controller just vibrates on kerbs and braking. Windsheld wiper don't work well, too.. It doesn't seems to affect on Raindrops. Big dissapoint things are Lexus Concept Engine sound and vibration thing
 
Thanks fire, hks, and patriot. Jordan could be very beneficial but even if he did help translations are my biggest concern.

Flow let me know what happens.
 
Whilst playing the last hours, i had my engine sound numbed a couple of times again whilst passing bots. It's happening very frequently, hope PD pick this one up soon and fix it.

It's getting quite annoying.
 
Sorry if I missed this in the list (it's really long, very good work) but there's a glitch where live timing in public lobbies doesn't show anything. It still occurs since this patch unfortunately.
 
Update on the Audi / tuning prohibited situation, I bought a new one and compared sheets, both are identical, but the new one (bought post patch) can enter tuning prohibited room without any problems.

So just buy the car again if you have problems, easy to do if the car is Premo.
 
another thing I noticed about the sound in scenic view. When you are say doing an AI race and watching the replay. You can hear all the other cars in the rear speakers, but as before, not your own... Someone really messed the sound up over @ PD, This one annoyes me so much, it's kinda funny. WHy did they have to mess with that one? I assume they just didn't check it after making aound adjustments. No one would let it into the game this way, would they?
 
Personal BGM didn't want to work for me in two occasions today while doing some old seasonals. It has never happened to me before.

And about the OP's point number 44. The AMG SL65's tailights are supposed to be like that irl. The little red tip on the right tailight is some sort of fog light. I don't know about the others.

Blunt will edit.

Menown will edit.

Oh, you mean like the whole tailight is off during night? In that case, it is a problem. I'll check that out.

5. NEW TO 2.06 There seems to be a problem with driver's cars being very quiet/silent when any competitor is near. The patch was supposed to improve this but it got worse. Replays are also affected and sound very poor in scenic view after the patch. This includes rear speakers barely working and stereo sound.

This is really a problem. I haven't heard many complains about this but in some cases your car goes completely silent and stays silent for a few seconds if you're close to a competitor. This problem is really annoying and I've figured out that it doesn't matter if your using your tv speakers, headphones, an analog stereo sound system or a digital sourround system with optical connection. It seems that it gets worst if you use roof cam or bumper cam, which thankfully I don't.

I'm affraid that the sounds have been toned down in quality for some reason. It almost feels like the superior sound effects of the game have been sacrificed for something else. Even the doppler effect has been simplified which hurts because GT5 was amazing with this before.

Replays sound terrible now. You can't hear your car at all unless it's right in front of the camera for a few fractions of a second.

Husky I do mean one taillight completely off not turning on.

Heard the Xantvi or something is another one I gotta check out.

I think the sound issues may be upgraded to extreme soon.

Hi mercgoat,
Yesterday i tried again. It must be my pedals. I ve been driven gt academy yesterday and now my throttle was shaking even if i had pushed it all through. Too bad this happened first time with the new update, so i thought it came from there. Also too bad that this happens right during the academy. But it didnt stopp me to make P5 in 4-1 ;-) (lucky).

Just a question: have you tried disabling everything but 2 channel output via HDMI out of the PS3?
I was having big troubles getting good sound, despite setting 2 channel in game. I am using HDMI output through the TV to my hifi, and I had left the PS3 output settings on default. Forcing the PS3 not to output Dolby digital to the TV has fixed this, and i now no longer have the feeling that I'm missing sounds.

Not sure if the problem is my TV or the algorithm which is used to determine which sound to push through HDMI, but the fix definitely works.
