Update 1.03 BUG , "X"Minutes Races..

[BWX]

I'll see your 2 places, and raise you a 3rd.

This was after experimenting with it this evening. I had won this race already, and had gold, but now have this...

Hey it's only a PS3, you can't expect PD to be able to make a game compared to a PC game! PS3's can't count... to old.. going senile.

I honestly do not know if I'm just lucky or I'm doing something right because I've been doing the nurb 24 min for a long time now and I've never encountered this happening on me.

But now that I think about it, the reason I've been lucky is that I'm usually two minutes ahead of second place when the clock hits zero, and with the nurb being so long I just happen to benefit from the fact that the next closest car is always too far for them to glitch it from me.

That said, I've raced in the 15 minute apricot hill many times before and after 1.03 and it has yet to strike me.

I am having the same problem. Came in 4th on 15 mins of Nurburgring. On the 3rd lap I was put into 4th when the time ran out, the last 3 cars were put into 1st, 2nd and 3rd respectively. Ran the race again, waited on second lap by the finish line until the time ran out. This did not work either, I came in 1st on the initial race results but got no stars and got paid for whatever losing position I was actually in.

 

[gt5shacktim]

I had same problems and I hate it. Came in first in 24 min Spa , results showed that everyone else was on 1 Lap (that was not the case) and received credits for 12e position. Than did 20 min Apricot hill; won by few seconds and was placed in 2e and received pricemoney for 2e position. Luckily I golded the S-races before the update but you want to raise your funds by doing those races again with other cars. Hope they fix it very soon.

How many laps did you run?

Did you run just one lap and then sit by the Finish Line?

This might work if you have the same number of laps as the leading AI.

I raced this 4 times today. 1st time raced normally, won by 1 minute and came 3rd, 2nd time won it by 1 minute 30 came 2nd, 3rd time did 2 full laps, waited by finish line until 24 minutes were up, was first to cross it after time was up came 16th did similar again came 16th again. I recon it might work as others have said to be first to cross finish line in 1st position just after the time is up.

I guess you can turn this problem in your favour, just pass the line when the time is up before the others, no matter your position, you should finish 1st.

You don't. Just tried. Sure enough it listed me as 1st on the initial results screen, but when it was time to pay out the rewards it correctly listed me as 16th and gave me the credits for being 16th.

My 'myth' is busted

I had high hopes for a little while and expected lots of cash, but my wallet was let down

A funny detail though: I did the 24 minutes of Nürburgring and in my 430 PP Porsche 911 replica on comfort softs, I actually gained on the leader while it was raining! Those guys are slow

 

[darrenh]

how do we make PD aware, is there an official route?

 

[tankuroded]

I rerun 5-minute race at Autumn Ring Mini and my win was recognized.

 

[Tired Tyres]

Did you cross the finishing line before anyone else when the timer hit zero?

Have you got the latest update today (After 1.03)?

Nope. I was replying to this. Sorry. I should have quoted it in the first place!

Yes to both. Must have related to today's mini-update.

 

[Famine]

Yes - the small, in-game update seems to have fixed this issue. More testing required at the moment.

Edit: Err... I wouldn't say it's entirely fixed, no...

 

[Al Swearengen]

So the workaround is as follows:
Sit by the finish line, and roll across first when the time is up?

i tried that, didn't work. i guess unless you can be in first place in the pit and on the track at the same time, it gives the race to the other cars. in first in the pit, it gives the cars on the track first place. in first place on the track and it gives the cars in the pit first place, lose lose. hope they fix this soon.

Not sure about all

Definitely the 24 min LeMans. I just ran it. No waiting, All good!!

[darrenh]

just to update, when i started the game there was an in game update. i immediately ran le mans 24 minute, got into the lead, 24 mins lapsed when i was just on the way down mulsanne, over the course of that lap i dropped down the leader board to 12th (which seems logical as the AI who were before the start finish at 00:00 are crossing over the line, so technically they are finishing first) then when i finished my lap i went to top of leader board and majority of the others said +1 lap.

final leader board showed me as 1st, i got my 3 stars plus full money and gold cup.

or in short, fixed

 

[Famine]

The winning part's been fixed. The fact that there's FIVE identical Falken R34s driven by the same guy finishing in identical times in my race suggests there's a little way to go with a proper fix...

Not to mention the fact that there's a BMW seperating them (which incidentally finished 8th & 11th)

But this was a ninja fix from PD and it took care of the main problem, well done I guess...

Mother Brandt was quite busy back in the day, huh?

One of the things I really want in GT6 is better split timing... and it's been a common request from many players through the years.

Looking at this thread and the results of patch 1.03 it makes me wonder if the software doesn't compute things in the way you'd expect.

 

[bodger]

I used to work at a software company (long ago) that had this problem.
Apparently the software in which they coded or compiled or whatevered their software had a bug, so on top of their normal bugs they would have to work around the compiler/coding/whatever software's bug with each new version as well. Needless to say, each version fixed something and introduced something new.

It isn't a unique problem.

Every project has it's bugs.

It is the systems you have in place to find and fix the bugs that makes the difference.

Given the size and scope of GT6, it is pretty stable really.

I didn't mean having bugs as such.
I was talking about how that company introduced new bugs with each bug fix because the software THEY used had bugs as well.

 

[XPOWER180]

AAAARRRGGHHH!! What an annoying bug! Glad I did a search for this before starting a fresh topic as I now see just how wide this bug is but I haven't seen one of the likes I've just had on the 10 lap Ascari challenge. I'm running my game on a zero credit basis so I'm obviously only using prize cars and for this race I picked the trusty old LCC Rocket. By lap 5 I took the lead away from the FXX and by lap 9 I had a nice 45 second lead. Then when it came to crossing the line for what I naturally presumed would be lap 10 it put me back into last place and stayed on lap 9! One further lap and lap 9 came in at 4:45.xxx with me completely bewildered! I managed to pass 4 back-markers on the last lap to get 12th. What a messed up game this is.

Maybe it was driven by Brandt, Schrödinger's cat? It decided to go all quantum mechanics and exist at five different places across the finish line the same time, thus getting five times the reward.
