There are a few threads already on things you want "fixed", or Epic Whining and Cryin. However, I couldn't see a legitimate bugs collection thread, hence, here it is.

Seeing as how we are a pretty big community and are we're all spendings quite a silly amount of time playing this game, we can keep a record of all the known bugs during our playing experience. Maybe someone influential here or knows how to get in touch with PD can pass these information along so they could be looked at for future updates.

To keep things organised, lets post in the following format (open to suggestions on improvements)

1. stating which country you copy of the game is from.
2. game version
3. bug (as detailed as possible, car, modification, track, or any number of combinations which makes your bug happen.


I'll start, this issue was first (as far as I know) noticed by Reddit user Neidajoda from his post Golf I GTI '76

1. Hong Kong
2. 1.01
3. When Volkswagen Golf I GTi '76 upgraded to Fully Customizable Dog-Clutch Transmission, the H gear shifter (and clutch pedal) on the Logitech G27 steering wheel no longer works. The car is limited to the sequential flap shifter only.

I found a bug in the Career Races. I completed all 3 Muscle Car races with Gold and received all of the Stars. I went back later to race one again but I got Silver. It now shows my record is Silver but still has all my Stars. Not a big deal because it still shows my completion of Stars and I can just run it again to get the Gold back (I hope), but it's still a bug that should be fixed.

Is anyone else having this issue?

Is this true for other similar races?
 
Upon entering night masters races, computer opponets cue up,but my name isn't there,click start race,get error message.

Enter international b licence, start test, get only a long-distance shot of the course and nothing happens.
Reset and same.

Lobby rooms suddenly drop,maintainence messages

The cockpit view (lack of) tach is insufferable!

Otherwise,fun
 
I noticed that too, also lots of typos in the game menus, I'm collecting them now. This is horrendous, what kind of idiot intern did they hire to do this?

Absolutely right!! At this level, you can't make so many mistakes. It can seem trivial but there is enough illiterate idiots on the forums around the web...

Doing tour of Europe, race 3, Ascari, managed to catch and pass the runaway M3, then flipped my Clio. My car righted itself pretty much straight away, but it put me back in twelth place, and even when I managed to pass the last three cars, I was still in twelth. Not the same issue as yours, but this has to be some kind of glitch. I know flipping the car is bad, but not to put me at least 2 laps behind ???.
 
UK BR-Disk Game
version 1.02

...well, I find it strange that Lamborghini Diablo GT '00 exists. Since on Lamborghini homepage there is latest model from '99. But that is not biggest problem with Diablo GT, it's gear ratios are messed up, ingame it can with default gearbox run max 280kmh, while in real life it went max 350kmh (both situations are hitting redline). Playing with gearbox ratios I did notice that they made a mistake there, final gear ration ingame is set to 42xx while in real life it was 40xx.
Also on Ferrari GTO 84' tacho is not showing proper values.
I noticed also few headlight problems, like on new M4 when normal lights are on, only angel eyes are shining, and when you turn long lights on, on both sides both lights go on! This is not the only model with problem...

So, is there any way to report this?

Cheers...
 
The Ferrari F430 as shown in the right of the picture will not show custom added parts. In GT6 unlike GT5 you can add a non painted carbon fiber hood as well as wing options. This F430 from GT6 has all of this installed like the F430scuderia does in the left of the picture, only it doesn't show on the F430 in picture, races, gallery... Anywhere.
Only the wheel change shows.

EDIT- this feature still has NOT been corrected with update 1.03
Bummer!

2. Update 1.2
3. Has already been mentioned but, the other day, entered an event and it only had half the grid listed, my name not listed, and only bottom options were Start, Exit and the car setup one. Click the setup, nothing happens; click start and it tells me the race data is invalid; exit worked. Tried it on various other events (all at IB level) and all the same. Exited game and restarted PS3...everything fine after that and has been since. Has only happened on one occasion so far

I've had this take place a few times myself.. Happened in a seasonal too.
 
Wild Cobra Z28
I set my units to metric, and when I go to the garage, for example, to Car setting, my Trans Am is 4,999 in. in length, 1,864 in. in width, and is 1,257 in. tall.

Are we in the Land of the Giants?

So glad you said this I thought I was crazy for reading the same thing 100 times when it came to the compact car race in career mode I think it was. (It was a race that said only for cars a certain length). But I read the measurment and it was some huge amount (I dont remember numbers as I just woke up and went on the internet without going on the game.) I remember lookingat number and I think it was some 4 digit number but no . were seen and it was inches. I was confused because I would check car lengths in the dealership and it would be a normal number like ##.#in. and the race showed ####in. in requirments. Never really gave it much thought untill I read this.

Yeah, if you run off track in the sharp/blind right hander, you get set back a lap! Pretty funny, as the finish line is several hundred meters away.

3: When changing cars from a specific event, eligible cars are listed. Well... SOME eligible cars are listed. Not all. If an otherwise eligible car exists, and this has several types of tires available, but not the right ones for this particular event, then the car is NOT listed. If you switch to "display all cars", and select it, GT6 will automatically change to the required tyres (provided you have bought them), and give you a notice about it.
But... But... But if it can change to the approved tyres automatically, why not list the car as eligible?!?
 
Pretty serious LOD/Adaptive Tessellation bug that I've come across.
The Toyota ST185 Rally Car (A premium model from GT5 which so far I have only driven in free run on Riffelsee and Chamonix Main) appears to have almost no interior detail in gameplay or replays! The whole dashboard is melted together into one big white and grey polygon. :yuck:

edit: I notice now that there is no gallery view option for this car, which I find very strange because I was certain that it was a premium with an interior in GT5, and something has gone wrong along the way...

Wasn't the premium version called the "ST205"? I think the one you're describing is the ST185 "Safari Rally" version (the one with pop-up headlamps, spare wheel mounted on the rear window, snorkel attached to the front), which was always a Standard car. The Premium Celica Rally Car has none of these addenda and has circular headlamps instead.

yes, I remember now, the smoother ST205 is the premium one, the ST185 is just a very good looking standard (besides the interior, which is surprisingly not black...) I thought I had driven the Safari Rally one a lot on GT5's Chamonix, but it was GT4 I was thinking of. It sure would be nice to have the rough and rugged Safari car as a Premium.
 
I just finished 24min Le Mans and just before starting 7th and final lap i had -30sec cap to 2nd, but then when i was 1/4 done of that lap, timer ended and it appeared "this is final lap ect" then i dropped to 8th and at end of lap i was 16th. So those other 15th drivers didnt make that 7th lap instead finished race on 6th. Then when i reached finish line it showed i finished 1st and others were +1lap behind, tho i only gained 1 star,44k credits and game registered i finished 16th. Nvm noticed theres other posts about this bug

I've seen many posts regarding the "2nd set of tires" problem. Some say tires have less grip after pit stop, some others say lap times are better after pit stop. I'm still not sure what exactly is the problem with grip levels after tire changes, but I also feel that there's something wrong (see this post).

What I did (and still do) notice after pit stops is a constant, annoying tire squeal noise. This sound persists even on long straights with no steering input. That sound alone gives me a bad feeling about the actual grip level and therefore slows me down.

Does anyone else experience this strange sound issue?
 
US version

v1.03

Copied from the other bugs thread: The cockpit view of the 1970 Dodge Challenger race car is bugged. I noticed this first in v1.02. I tested it last night and it is still present in v1.03. The view out the windshield is way washed out/over-exposed. I've tested it at SSRX and Willow, and can confirm it is specific to the car.

3.Not sure if it's a bug or the race is supposed to work this way, but on the 10 minute races there's a bug if you pass the finish line right before the 10 minute timer goes off - the other cars will "pass" you.

Example:

I was doing Rome, passed the lead car on the 4th or 5th lap then by the second to last lap I was a good 20 seconds ahead. I passed the finish line when the 10 minute timer went off. All of a sudden I fall to 7th place! The cars that were behind me finished the race as they went over the finish line before I did.
 
With January 16 update, trying to enter text, at least at tuning page, freezes game, unable to access control panel, forcing hard reset.
Please note that this is "not cool".
