The Great Project Cars Glitches, Bugs and Errors Thread

Is there a way to workaround the not saving setups issue?

It started to happen here and I'm so tired of memorizing tons of numbers every single damn time I go to track.

Write it down on a piece off paper, the good old fashion way

I've started taking screenshots with the PS4 of the set up summary page. had all my Formula C settings wiped the other nice, and had to reload my Mclaren F1 ones.

As I type this, I can't get out to the track from my garage because there's a car in the pit stall next to me and my complete 🤬 of a driver can't figure out how to get around him. He's just completely useless. The other car is just sitting there too. Been at least 5 minutes. Wouldn't be a problem if we could drive ourselves in the pits. This is a really great game. Such polish. Wow.

Don't know if it's been mentioned or if it is even a bug, or just a poorly explained trophy, but I noticed I still don't have the grand chelem trophy, despite having won from pole, setting fastest lap and leading every lap on multiple occasions in career now. It doesn't say it needs to be done in a specific game mode or specific class, so if it does, could someone tell me which mode/class?

IIRC, I won the Grand Chalem trophy with a GT3 quick race weekend.

Cheers, maybe it only works in quick race then, although that seems a bit odd. I've only grand slammed race weekends in career, and never got the trophy, so I thought maybe it had to be in FA or something as I've only done karts, superkarts, and FR in Career.

Thanks for the info, I'll try a weekend in quick race tonight

I got it by accident (I don't chase trophies) on a 10 lap quick race round Donington My first time driving the Clio in the game
(Got the Gladiator trophy at the same time too )

 

[Mike_grpA]

Must be quick race only then. I don't chase trophies either, but just thought about it today when I grand slammed another race and I remembered seeing a trophy for it, I thought "I must already have that then", but no I haven't.

Seems a bit stupid you can't get it in career, since it doesn't mention a specific game mode in the description, like it does for some trophies (The gladiator one for example).

On the final lap, last 2 corners, somone put an invisible wall across the track. My car jumped up in the air, tyres went stone cold and the FFB went all floppy. Nice one SMS.

I've had pretty much the same experience twice , both times however in career mode . I lost all FFB , tyres instantly blue aswell . I hope this is a known issue as it's a race ending bug .
I'm against a rewind feature for this type of game but I must admit if it had it I'd use it in these circumstances . I think I was about 27 laps into a race when it happened so I was pretty peed off.

On PS4 with a T300 my PS4 continually goes into rest mode in career. I've logged 30 hours without this happening but the last few times I've tried to play it's happened multiple times within 10 minutes of driving. Most recently with the R8 LMS around Laguna in practice 1.
Deeply annoying.

PS4
It makes me worried !
The last two day's i had two crashes and one freeze
Already told this on the forum from Projectcars and it seems i'm not the only one.
Could it be that the PS4 is not capable to run this game because the game ask to much power of it ?
Hope they can fix this .

I had similar issues. Redownloaded the game and it seems to be working fine now.

had a lovely crash into an invisible wedge at Le Mans the other night. it was perfectly positioned to flip one side of the car up and make it do a barrel roll, like something you'd see in the A-Team. was pretty cool.

but also utterly ludicrous!

 

[svenvangent]

Hmmmm

Hmmmm, could be a option
thanks

In my case, third time is the charm, it seems.

Yep, I've hit that one too :-(

Where is it located ?
I did the 24 hrs without hitting invisible wedges.
I did hit a tirewall though...

IIRC, the invisible object is located on the exit of the pitlane, but it only activates if you take the car from an AI driver after a pit-stop.

Did you shared the car with the AI?

OK, thanks !
No, I did not share my seat with AI, but I only completed 8 hrs.
I misjudged (during the night) the speed of two LMP's closing in on my BMW Z4, and while trying to avoid contact I hit the tirewall at the first Mulsanne chicane. impact was not too hard, but hard enough to crush my bonnet and headlights. I crawled to the pits (had to switch to roof cam, since in cockpit view, I could not look over the bonnet), but the damage could not be repaired. Out for me...

What a bummer! But it's nice to know that endurances could work. Le Mans and endurances were some of the main reasons for me buying this game. It's nice to know that I can run those events, as long as I don't share the car. At least, until the patch sort things out.

mine was down one of the straights, on the right side of the track, just as i was attempting a pass.

I was so keen to race Le Mans this week, but I fear an invisible 🤬 ruining my race at the 23th hour.

i ran quite a few laps around there over a couple of races and it only happened the one time. was testing out the Alpine.

I think it's probably wiser hold my horses until the patch comes along.

There are still a lot of things to sort out. At Le Mans (invitational) i had no problems, but in "Team" I had to restart several times at Watkins Glenn 3hrs (LMP1 car), because the game kept crashing after some time, mostly around 2 hours, sometimes after half an hour.
Each time I got directed back to that event, without being able to proceed on anything else from the calendar.
In my last try, I reduced AI from 80 to 60%, drove one stint and then gave the wheel to Bob, while leading by 4 laps. He lost between 6 - 12" each lap, but he finished the race with just a lap ahead and there was no game crash.
Weird thing: in this last race the hud showed position 1/6 the whole time, while there were 30 (or 40 ?) cars competing in several classes. The results also only show place 1 to 6 !?
I am pretty sure that during the first races the HUD did show the right amount of cars.
Going to start Sonoma Raceway 3hrs race now, see if that is trouble free...
Practice 1 - 2 and qualifying were OK.

Sigh. I'll wait.

About the positioning on HUD, maybe the game only displays your class? It's the only explanation I can think off. Or it's even another amazing UI oversight.

 

[Yellowbeard]

Came across my first bug last night. Running a 10 lap quick race at Oulton Park Island in a Caterham Classic with 20 cars, qualified 7th and had just taken the lead on lap 6 when I hit an invisible object on the racing line exiting Lodge corner, got going again (after being battered by a host of opponents) but the wheel felt very light and strange and the car was acting like it was a motorcycle sidecar outfit with no passenger, in every corner the outside wheels were lifting up as I turned in
I can only assume that there must be sidecar racing coming to PCars and the Caterham got confused as to what category it was in

No big deal, not a gamebreaker and I'm certainly not going to start whining and crying over something that gave me such a laugh ..... I did manage another lap or so before I had to stop 'cos I could no longer concentrate through laughing too much

It only shows your position in class, that's been consistent for every multiclass event I've been in (be it two or more classes).
