Guys looks like no cloud save on this had to reinstall my computer and I've lost 12 hours of gameplay

 

[Raumarik]

Looks like saves are in this location:

(windows 8.1)
C:\Users\(username)\Documents\Rockstar Games\GTA V\Profiles\

Will get that added to crashplan backup lol

Can I go down a shop a buy it and slap it on Steam? It's a fiver cheaper.

It won't be a Steam key, but you can add none-Steam games, it just won't have the benefits.

When I reinstalled my SP save was intact

So where is the cheapest place to pick this up currently?

 

[Drake5]

Why does Vsync lock to 59fps and not 60? It causes stuttering

Any one know a fix for this yet

 

[GTO656]

[Captain]

[Vanilla]

Had the same issue, downloading the latest Nvidia drivers solved the problem for me

Since I tweaked my OC on the 560 Ti I've had no performance issues, stuttering or the like. Game runs so smoothly, albeit at lowish settings. Still looks great.

Been playing a good few hours now. And ive just had two crashes to desktop. Really really annoying. I wasnt even doing anything of note to push graphics to top usage either. Just driving along and not really in a built area either. Really hope this isnt the start of major gremlins
Im really loving this game on pc. Shame if this is the start of things to come.

Despite my better judgement I have purchased and the game is currently downloading from Steam will join the OCUK crew once I get that far

This one I think: https://uk.gamesplanet.com/game/grand-theft-auto-v--2625-1

I think it's worth the extra £8 to get it on Steam though.

does anyone CTD when using afterburner to record in game footage? As soon as I hit record, it boots me out of game. Also, I cant start the game with DXTory, just doesnt launch. Seems I'm having real issues with issues with recording.

Reason why I want to show some footage I have, I got this really annoying shadow issue around 20 feet from my character. I have like a texture line the draws the shadow in front of me, as I move, the shadow drawn receives a good amount of detail, but its like this moving drawing shadow in front of me in a line, its so annoying. It's only just started happening today and I cant figure out why its doing it. I've watched Gregs video as well, and he has it happen as well, so it's clearly not an AMD thing. It appears on walls, buildings, fences etc

 

[Absorbentsolid]

I already have 41 hours played, God i love this game!

Might be time to go outside though.

 

[Amatsubu]

The game looks better than I expected but I still can't find optimal IQ settings to maintain steady 60fps. Is dropping post fx from ultra to very high worth it? I'm still not sure whether there's any visual difference between the two. What else can I do to gain fps without sacrificing visuals?

I bought mine on Steam and it is currently maxing my connection for the download so to me it was well worth the extra money.

Well I waited to see if the launch was going to be a shambles... but gave in this afternoon. Still watching it download on Steam, might get a chance to play tomorrow
