The Great Project Cars Glitches, Bugs and Errors Thread

[AnfLaw]

I think the bodywork over the wheels sticking out just enough to prevent contact with the tarmac depending on steering angle, earned you the trophy. I got mine being rear ended in a formula C race, pushed up an over the car in front. Landed an destroyed my suspension. Really earned that one.

 

[OooAhh Cantona]

I'm not sure how I actually earned the trophy, its supposed to be for getting your car off the ground for 0.88 seconds. You'd think it would mean all 4 wheels but apparently not. My car being tanked on its side by 'mister break-all-the-physics' must have been enough.

Did you earn it? Maybe the trophy is for the AI driver.

Made my first thread over at the official forums. FYI the night skies aren't correct and too bright on many circuits:

Good point! Wouldn't be surprised!

I haven't seen this on pcars forum.

PS4 digital edition. Season 1, M1 Procar Invitational, Round 2 at Zolder. My car crashes into invisible pit garage door while exiting for Practice and Qualify. View shows no garage door at the start when parked in garage. Drive forward and boom/crash; car looks like a wrecking ball was dropped onto it. Have to restart session until car successfully squeezes through hole in the coding. (This race is also my first experience with rain starting mid race. The already reported AI/rain/tire grip thing.)

Didn't see this on pcars forum but maybe they are looking at it in connection with AI cutting corners. AI is too fast in the grass. Significantly faster than me when I go off track. Caterham 7 event at Oulton Park, and AI kept pace side by side, on grass, with me for quarter mile before getting back on track.

AI cutting corners

 

[Mr Latte]

No Stereo Positioning Effects.....

Is this ONLY on PS4 or ALL PLATFORMS?

Example:
Use Headphones
Drive with two right wheels in gravel, why do you hear the gravel on the left/opposite channel?
Passing cars, grass, rumble strips, smashing alongside walls, barriers.

All positioning effects seem to be applied in both L/R channels.

My limited edition and modified car packs keep disappearing from the game along with the invitational events that come with them, I've mentioned it a few times on the official forum but I think it's getting lost amongst the plethora of other problems being mentioned, is this a common problem? I'm on PS4.

This is a game breaker for me, I've already shelled out extra for the limited edition cars which I can only use some of the time when they stop playing hide and seek, and what happens if I have this problem with future DLC? When it's working it's a great game but it has a ridiculous amount of problems that are ruining it for me.

invitational events with limited edition content appears immediatly when you start a new career or is something has to be unlocked. I started the career with clio cup car and i have no invitational event apart from the kart first invitational i won't do.. cause karts sucks in this game

 

[svenvangent]

Had just started my first career in Touring - first practice session in the Clio - went into the corner and the car literally took off like a rocket and the speedo said 315MPH as if flew endlessly into the sky. - Strait out "I don't want to live on this planet anymore!" said the Clio.

Video added - low quality on tiny pic but it shows it

AI cutting corners

Looks like some of the AI were modeled based on some open lobby punters

 

[RacerPaul]

Maybe this has been mentioned, apologies if so...

The ai in solo mode don't pit to change tyres when I set multiple weather slots in the race. It starts dry, then a bit later it starts raining. I pit for wets and the ai just carry on till the end of the race, leaving me a distant last

Am I missing a setting?

 

[Brend]

Is terrain-modelling taken into account for the AI? The speeds they can achieve off-track is ridiculous and barely has an impact on their race when they go off-track. They also seem to have baffling grip off-track too.

 

[NightHawkFur]

2 glitches today:

Hochenkeim:
On the first corner I got a penalty for cutting the track. I just went on the regular inside line, not even touching the cerbs. It seems to happen only after you had a pit-stop though.

Azure Westbound:
2x Warning for cutting the track in just a few seconds in between for using the right lane (where the road splits into 2) just before the finish.

Problem with ford escort round 2 of historic championship. Brands hatch car setting revert back to an undrivable setup? No matter what I do the setting change back

 

[Myles Prower]

PC (mulitplayer)
1. When joining a lobby camera is locked to bumper cam, have to rejoin to fix
2. During a standing start sequence cars are randomly thrown across the start
3. When exiting the pits im sometimes issued a track cutting penalty with no wrong doing, at a race in Snetterton I received a 320 second slowdown for no reason exiting the pits

 

[Cocomoto]

I don't know if someone metioned it(probably someone did) but... the lack of tyre sound is really awnkward.

Sometimes the rear wheels are spinning and even comming smoke of it and no sound of the tyres!!


PS: But i do have have to say, the game have it flaws but... I'M LOVING IT!! today i had the pleasure of playing with the BMW M3(the old one, i really don't remember the full name) on the Nurb anbd oh God, that was pure joy.

 

[NorthwolF]

Im not sure if is a bug, but in Road invitationals some cars (RUF RGT8, Caterham Classic, Evo X, BMW 1M) behave way different from practice or created events (outside career mode), transmission feels weird, long ratios, bad brakes...

Damage does not reset in replays and the crash physics are still a bit iffy I think.

 

[HBR-Roadhog]

I just encountered my first major glitch in game a little bit ago.

Running in the GT5 path G40Jr.? at Donnington come around the final corner on the inside as we approached the pit entrance I think the car to the right of me was trying to get into the pits but I was in his way. My display froze but the sound still seemed to be working properly. I could hear the engine respond to my throttle inputs. After a few seconds the engine started bogging down and then the screen unfroze with me in the grass off to the right of the track at the far end of the straight. Apparently the car was still moving the whole time the screen was frozen.

So far this is the only big issue I have saw while racing and fortunately it has only happened the one time.

Any one else saw anything like this?

 

[AnfLaw]

On PS4 - If you join a lobby using identical cars, if the host chooses a car from the limited edition pack (which i don't own) I'm still able to play. Joined a lobby running historic touring, switched to the Limited edition DTM Merc - Gave me full access to the pack any time a car was chosen from inside it.

Quite nice as problems go...

Also in regards to the packs, when I started playing today, I decided to nab a few trophies, like the drive Azure coast at 50kph in an Italian super car. Decided to try the Pagani Roadster from the modified pack. Game didn't acknowledge me owning it. Restarted, still didn't show. Deleted the pack, redownloaded... showed up again.

I remember that damage also didn't reset in Shift 2.
Also SWEET JUDO MOVE.

I don't know if it has been posted, but at least in PS4, if you're using bumper cam on the RGT-8 GT3, if you enter photomode the camera will be stuck.

I've made a video from the downshifting bug, it happens most of the time when i upshift from 4th to 5th gear, completely out of the blue.



This is really annoying. I'm loving the game, but almost every race i got one of these.

Am i doing something wrong here?

 

[A4XRBJ1]

Not showing my times on the leaderboard when playing the community event. Here is driving the BMW M1 Procar in Monza but same happened for three other races before. As you can see in the video I'm getting several rounds with valid times, then I go out and get no entry on the leaderboard. Go out to main menu and enter again, still no entry in leaderboard.

What am I doing wrong or when is this bug addressed?

 

[ScottPuss20]

My game crashed last night. I thought something was wrong because the car I used (Ginetta G40) sounded too quiet.

I had the same issue, even online. I had the 'extreme wet' tyres, but that didn't make a difference or more grip. Well there was a difference due the pit time i was 30 secs behind my opponent.

Tyre wear compression problem:

Tyre wear is set to x7 in global settings.
Created a solo race using a ford focus at Brands Hatch GP:

Practice: 30m
Qualifying: 30m
Race: 10 laps.

Weather: light cloud, light rain, medium cloud.

In every session the AI cars all burst their front left tyre within 4-6 laps. They usually end up with their nose pressed against the barriers, sparking from their front tyres.

This is repeatable and I have used 2 different road cars to do so.

Also when using x7, the tyres become more drive-able within the first corner or so. I was quite shocked when I set tyre wear to real at how much longer you have to tip toe around the track.

Real tyre wear feels much better.

Indeed. It kind of renders the ability to set varying weather useless doesn't it?

XB1 version here...

2nd Pagani trackday at Monza
Game crashed to XB1 home, halfway down the pitlane when starting qualifying. Repeat gave same result
Game crashed to XB1 home, halfway round Curva Biassano on lap 1. Repeat gave same result

Get a PS4 ya ruddy traitor.
