Suggestion: Having a way to check to see if a player is using a trainer would be a great addition to the scripting API.

Possible use cases?
1: Only allow administrators to use trainers, else kick the player.
if(notAdmin(player) && usingTrainer(player) return KickPlayer()

2: On a trainer-allowed server, maybe on the server list have a marker showing that they are using one.

3: If the player is using a trainer, show special messages, or give them access to special commands.

Something like playerelement.usingTrainer; // (read only / returns true-false)
or server.isUsingTrainer(element); // returns true/false

The streaming system has some performance issues. I've previously offered some ideas to help remedy this:

• Custom tick rate
• Priority level where some elements are checked less often
• Chunk streaming
• Checking if player's position has changed enough (threshold) since last update
• Not checking distance every frame

I try to join servers after following the downgrade steps but nothing happens at all. It also seems that I'm missing settings that I see in video tutorials but not in my client.

I've tried reinstalling the client multiple times with no luck, I recall seeing the extra settings when I first installed the client but after I first set the directory they disappeared. First image is my game settings, second is from the video

Fixed it, all good

fixed it, all good

Since I updated to version 1.5.28, I just go to every server and it immediately throws up this error message.
Before, there was no such thing as throwing in the error right away.

I think the updated version must be the bug, because I tried it with fresh gta iv (freshly reinstalled) and it didn't work either.

İ dont know why that happens.

Same bro, and i dont know how to solve it.
I've tried several times to combine it with gta connected again with fresh gta iv but it produced something similar, I don't know, there was no problem before, now I don't know what happened to it.
Any idea to solve it?

Does it work if you install this?

https://download.microsoft.com/download/8/B/4/8B42259F-5D70-43F4-AC2E-4B208FD8D66A/vcredist_x86.EXE

It works perfectly fine with that program. Thanks you very much. You safed my gta, even if that's why I unnecessarily bought gta iv on steam. ��
Guys, download this app, its really solve the problems. �
And happy new years for everyone! ���

Glad to hear it!

the numbers on the wiki basically go from 0 up to 120~, while they're weirdly hashed numbers in the actual engine.

Vortrex's shared lib for IDs: https://github.com/VortrexFTW/gtac_vortrex/blob/master/sandbox/shared/util.js#L5332

https://youtu.be/MnydRfrhgvE <- like on this movie + after /eject and /portland commands, other players will don't see us!

Server-side:
triggerNetworkEvent("remove_From_Vehicle", client)

Client-side:

addNetworkHandler("remove_From_Vehicle", function()

if (localPlayer) then
    localPlayer:removeFromVehicle()
end

end)

Not sure how this happened. Running 1.0.8.0 in window mode, 1600x900 resolution and all graphics settings at max.

My rig has decent specs. There's no way I should be running out of memory (32 GB!) unless IV is a 32-bit exe.

Crash, Game

Scripting memory is now in a separate process

This happens when I'm walking or when I'm sitting in a car, it just throws me out at random times, but I also noticed that if there are 10 or more of us on the server, it won't even let me play if I let it in and immediately throws me out, which is damn annoying!

happens randomly, no matter what you do,
Please you guys solve this problem because it is very annoying for everyone! <3

Please fix these (Unhandled exception access violation c00005 gta iv connect error)s because the game is unplayable like this, if you can do something about it please guys!!!!!!!!

I have previously uploaded such an announcement here (Unhandled exception access violation c00005 gta iv connect error), please look at it!!!!!

Just run the game with gta connected 1.5.8. or 1.5.9, and you will see the game doesn't launch, just shows up these errors.

After picking correct game (IV or EFLC) and after the loading screen + lobby, the game crashes.
Crashing after the update (version 1.5.30.0)

Cant' attach .dmp file

Put the dmp.gz file directly in here. Don't extract the .dmp file from it.

Crashed like 3 times within a very short time span, not sure if it was related to a specific player being close to me or not, nobody else crashing

Was specific to a Mafiya Work match*

it just reloads the program

dosent launch

i dont know

Unfortunately without more info, there's no way for us to know exactly what happened, and trying to guess could just make things worse.

Please check for a crash dump and upload it here.

For various versions of Wine I have tried, the usual outcome of trying to launch GTAIV through GTAC launcher was "access denied".

Crash, GTA 4 Connected, GTA Connected GTA 4 crash, Linux, Proton, Wine

Disabling mods doesn't make a difference, only trying a different Wine version helped in the past.

Error information:

wine-staging 7.19
lutris-5.7-11-x86_64
wine-5.11-staging-tkg-amd64

Wine versions working:
WIP

Update to the issue:

Occasionally, the "access denied" error dialogue won't be present, and instead, Wine will display an unhandled exception in the logs:

014c:err:seh:NtRaiseException Unhandled exception code c0000005 flags 0 addr 0x7eba0104

This time the address is shown, maybe it could help with the process of finding the issue.

Also, I used a FS logger on the wineserver process and found that this is the likely culprit:

/proc/18068/mem

Presumably, editing the game process memory was denied to the launcher.

Maybe this is distribution specific, the issue has been occurring on Arch Linux and Artix Linux (which is what I am using now).

Update: With Esync and Fsync disabled, GTA Connected actually works!

As a side-note, considering that anticheat disabled mods I use that actually fix the game, I had to use -availablevidmem 0.6 because -nomemrestrict and -norestrictions didn't work, and my card has over 2 GB of VRAM.

The value (0.6) can be altered with this formula:
Value = max / det
det = detected value
max = the highest value that works (approx. 2452)
Example: 2452 / 4088 = 0.6

What is Esync and Fsync? Is that specific to WINE?

Yes. As far as I know, Esync and Fsync are Wine optimisations related to FS access that aren't upstream, but are featured in Proton and many custom versions of Wine.

Would be nice to have a Linux ARM build of the server to host off a pi4.
Obviously priority is not high, it would just be a nice extra!

Aren't there x86 emulators for ARM?
It wouldn't perform the greatest but its worth a shot.

Jack has successfully built the server for both 32 and 64 bit ARM architectures, and will hopefully add them to the downloads soon

ARM64 server is available

Same. Crash Dump is attached

This happens when I'm walking or when I'm sitting in a car, it just throws me out at random times, but I also noticed that if there are 10 or more of us on the server, it won't even let me play if I let it in and immediately throws me out, which is damn annoying!

how to fix it? I'm connecting to my server. When the inscription "Connecting to GTA Connected" appears, then this error appears.

Joined Connected Roleplay on IV with some friends and my game crashed multiple times. Once, immediately after getting deadly hit by a vehicle, secondly, just standing still at Dukes PD and at some other random intervals.

Get killed with a vehicle

Latest version, no mods.

10% chance for the client to crash when using goto or gethere on players, especially out of streaming distance.

I'm calling "triggerNetworkEvent("setPlayerPosition", client, Number(x), Number(y), Number(z))" on player command.

addNetworkHandler("setPlayerPosition", (x, y, z) => {
if (localPlayer) {
console.log(Setting player position to ${x}, ${y}, ${z});
if (localPlayer.vehicle) {
localPlayer.vehicle.position = new Vec3(x, y, z);
localPlayer.vehicle.velocity = new Vec3(0, 0, 0);
return;
}
localPlayer.velocity = new Vec3(0, 0, 0);
localPlayer.position = new Vec3(x, y, z);
} else {
console.log(Local player is null);
}
});

Attaching crash dump. Let me know whatever info you need.

When trying to answer a call, the game crashes instantly, only the client, the server is not affected, it can also happen when doing a mini-game like the dancing game in the mission "life's a beach". Attached are generated dumps and a video

Complete any mission that unlocks a call and try to answer it.

Curiously, the mini-game of the mission "cesar vialpando" is not affected, completing it without problems.

Player heading cannot be set server side.

Set player.heading on server. The change won't appear.

Client-side works correctly.

Tested on GTA3.

second player sees, that server try to change player heading for 1 sec, but it goes back to its previous heading, so it's looks like, heading is read/set, but set isn't works fine.

@rww
That's because it's being reset by the client that's syncing it.
Use a network event to tell the client to set their heading.

Me (and a few of my friends who went through the same downgrading process from the Steam version of San Andreas) are playing on a private server. With seemingly random requirements, sometimes entering a vehicle crashes the game. Around 50% of the time a vehicle is entered, the game freezes, followed by a crash. This crash happens when entering as a driver (pressing F) or entering as a passenger (pressing G with the "v-passenger" script).

Sometimes it will crash everyone who attempts to enter a vehicle. Sometimes it only crashes the driver, or only crashes the passenger.

I've attached the server config file (which I doubt is causing issues, but just in case), and two crash logs. The first ("2023-03-15 19-17-14.655.dmp.gz") being one of my own crashes (entering as a driver), and the second ("2023-03-16_00-21-35.104.dmp.gz") being a crash from my friend (entering as a passenger).

• Enter a vehicle.
• Crash...? (seemingly around 50% chance)

Playing on a private server hosted on my machine with these scripts:

• "v-events" (unmodified)
• "freeroam" (slightly modified to only load some code (all code except for the "fade") when playing GTA III, as that's what the script was made for)
• "v-nametags" (unmodified)
• "v-passenger" (unmodified)
• "v-sandbox" (slightly modified to remove some code from "/server/main.js", as they caused errors in the console - lines 26, 27, and 28 have been commented out)
• "v-spawnscreen" (slightly modified to change instances of "onPedDeath" to "onPedDeathEX" from the "v-events" script to work with San Andreas)
• "v-time" (unmodified)

Still an issue on 1.5.8, happens very commonly on my self-hosted server to the point where clients will crash every 10-15 minutes.

Multiple crash dumps attached, my server.xml: https://pastebin.com/McCMKE09

Проблема при подключении к серверу

When trying to load into certain servers (Including one I host on my LAN) I get the below error message come up, the game connects however gets stuck on loading, the only way to see the error message is by ALT + TAB to bring the log up.

Tried on 4x different PC's with each exhibiting the same issues, only certain servers are causing this, also tried clearing the cache for all, flushing the DNS and restarting each machine. Firewall settings on all have GTA Connected whitelisted and ports required are forwarded.

Launch GTA connected, try connecting to server

When trying to load into certain servers (Including one I host on my LAN) I get the below error message come up, the game connects however gets stuck on loading, the only way to see the error message is by ALT + TAB to bring the log up.

Tried on 4x different PC's with each exhibiting the same issues, only certain servers are causing this, also tried clearing the cache for all, flushing the DNS and restarting each machine. Firewall settings on all have GTA Connected whitelisted and ports required are forwarded.

Launch GTA connected, try connecting to server

Opening the chat makes the game think you're not on a turf and therefore can lose it to the enemy team.
(TLAD - Own The City)

Like in topic. Also some players from my team, got more than 100fps in game. And GTA III with above 60 fps looks very bugged, vehicles are slower etc... In Display Menu, we has FrameSync and FrameLimiter enabled. And it tested with SilentPatch and without it.

https://youtu.be/L2jXYuIc-PY

Idk, but it's bugged only on full screen (on windowed mode, I got a stable 60fps).

i have like 10000fps and can run the entire map in 3 seconds. in windowed mode too

It would be actually really cool to have a command like /chatfont to set the
font size bigger/smaller and /chatsize to actually show more lines of the chat.

Currently there are 7 lines, without the possibility to scroll... I know that there
is a possibility to also rework the chat by myself, but font.render does not
handle color codes.

I hope it ain't a wish too big ;P
Cheers

I just found the /chatscale command, thought - knew I had seen something like this tho.

Yeah I recommended this a long time ago using some inspiration from another multiplayer mod, just slightly differently on the commands:
/chatfont to change the actual the font (system fonts like Arial, Comic Sans, Courier New, etc)
/chatlines to set the number of visible lines
/chatsize to set the text size
/chatback to enable a semi-transparent background
/chatshadow to enable shadows under the text
/chatweight to set the text weight (thin, light, normal, medium, bold, etc)

Well the most of that would be just setting existing variables. Ain't you Developer too?

I tried to make a chat that is bigger with font.render but since color codes are not handled
I had to decide .... rather style or more lines. And for development stage i prefer style �

These variables are hard coded at the moment and don't save. I'd prefer having the old client cvars back to handle this.

But there is sqlite not? That's offering a proper way to save client side config data :)

client-side offline resources don't seem to re-run when disconnecting from a server

Connect to a server.
Type /disconnect
If you have an offline resource with a F1 key bind to reconnect, F1 will not work, even after minutes of waiting.

Chat box says timeout despite typing /disconnect (See other issue)

Disconnecting via /disconnect command says timeout in the chat box

Connect to a server.
Type /disconnect

Tested on VC, likely occurs on all games, or at least III-era games.

Only for GTA SA

It seems to not work on IV too.

cheatkeys

v-admin

v-chat

v-help

v-hudtoggle

v-joinquit

v-sandbox

the crash mostly because of cheatkeys and v-sandbox.

Today we've been testing how gta.createSphere works. I created sphere on both client and server side and in both cases the result was identical. Every time it crashed every player with ID number bigger than 0, if player with ID 0 was really close to the sphere. If player with ID number bigger than 0 got too much close to the sphere, his game would crash. We didn't assign any functions to the sphere.

Add to script (not matter if it's client or server side) gta.createSphere and enter a server with someone. Then come close to the sphere - game crashes.

Lua Code:

SphereTest = nil
SphereTest = gta.createSphere(Vec3(878.943, -304.322, 8.4), 2.0)
addToWorld(SphereTest) -- (only on server-side, but with and without is same effect - game crashes).

When I enter the game and I wait for a few secs, the game crashes and I ran into this message Unhandled Exception

You can launch into one of the episodes, and Quickmatch into an existing lobby that is on IV without actually loading into IV (still playing the episode itself). Meme.

Forgot to mention, this can only happen with Freemode.

Is this still happening after the update that puts everybody in party mode together first?

Yes. If you use the phone to change episode from within IV's party mode and for example change to TLAD, it ends up placing you into an IV freemode. I don't think it's a problem though considering servers can just force an episode.

It seems that this also affects Party Mode but in a different way.
If there are people in Episodic Party Mode, other people cannot launch IV at all.

Unable to see other players on the same maps. Or their character is standing still but in the chat we confirmed that they are moving and that our characters are doing the same on their side. Happend multiple times.

Also getting a crash exemption error and then it freezes. Unable to play mulitplayer on any server.

Log out and back in

A friend and I are playing GTA Connected 1.5.5 on version 1070 of GTA 4.
When entering an empty server we are both able to enter games with no problem. When attempting to enter a server with other players (of any count) it will say "connected" at the top left but be frozen on "LOADING GTA CONNECTED" with the letters at the bottom right flashing infinitely.
As soon as all the other players leave it will immediately admit one of us into the server so the issue has been narrowed down to joining a server when anyone else is in one.

GTA 4 Connected

Use GTA Connected on GTA 4 and attempt to join any standard free roam server that is occupied by another player.

Both my friend and I are in different states on entirely different IPs. This issue has been when joining other servers, as well as when we tried connecting to my own x64 server. The only server we were able to enter since this problem arose was some heavily modded roleplay server.

Attached are the last 3 logs which showed the issue

Vehicles spawns at different heights, they spawned from server-side script. Coord Z is correct, they should spawns on surface, but for some reason, they spawns also in tunnel. In some parking lot I think there was also this problem.

Try to join on "IS - Irelevant III Server ..." and try check spawned vehicles on /hospital, and next try from /portland drive in tunnel to Shoreside Vale.

It happend, because when we drive from Portland under Staunton in tunnel, game still is on Portland Island (and game don't load Stauton Island collision - all vehicles fall to blue hell and respawn in tunnel).

Workaround for it (tested)
<code lua>
Get_Player_Island = 0

bindEventHandler("OnResourceReady", thisResource, function(event, resource)

setInterval(function() -- timer for function second
    OneSecond()
end, 1000)

end)

function OneSecond()

if (localPlayer) then

    local getPlayerIsland = gta.getIslandFromPosition(localPlayer.position) -- workaround for https://bugs.gtaconnected.com/view.php?id=403

    if (localPlayer.position.z < 0.0) then
        if (getPlayerIsland ~= Get_Player_Island) then
            if (getPlayerIsland ~= 0) then

                gta.setIsland(tonumber(getPlayerIsland), true, true, true)

            end
        end
    end

    Get_Player_Island = getPlayerIsland

end

end
</code>

I recently reported a similar problem. There, it turned out that blips attached to a player who is in a vehicle on another island was the problem, but apparently not the only one....

Since server version 1.5.3 there is another problem. I can't even explain it so that you would understand (that's why I included a video on how to repeat the crash).

If there are NPCs in vehicles (traffic) enabled, there is more than one player and each is on a different island, which one will constantly crash when on the screen of one of them, a vehicle appears (usually crashes the one who is not in Portland).

I also checked in GTA Vice City, everything seems to be fine there.

Crash, Sync

Here it's video, how to do. This crash works on every server with enabled traffic (also with blank script).

https://youtu.be/-G4sculPzhs

1. Open a local server (Linux or Windows, this crash works on both) and open clients in two windows (like in video above).
2. Set position for first player : "1379.2, -192.8, 50.2".
3. Set position for second player : "196.5, -311.8, 16.2".
4. Just wait for traffic. :)

However, NPC (also when they are not driving cars) cause a crash. It doesn't just always happen, but often.
Today we played for a long time and it was only when I disabled NPC completely that it was possible to play on server. Otherwise, all players got crashes.

I can't reproduce it on Client 1.5.4/ Server 1.5.7.
Propably fixed? :D

Player is invisible after romoving from vehicle and setting position. Also car controls are messed up for teleported/removed player.

Sync

1. Join and spawn (2 players).
2. Use player.removeFromVehicle() then set player.position.

Tested on Irrelevant III Server - easy to reproduce:
https://youtu.be/05Cz1V0AL9g

Example: A player dies in a match but for unknown reasons doesn't respawn, assumed stuck in infinite loading. The result of this is that match progress is frozen. Any money accumulated doesn't update on the scoreboard/playerlist, new Mafiya Work tasks aren't given, other players that die can't respawn either (stuck on the loading screen), new players joining the match are stuck on the lobby screen despite the match running, until said player ALT F4's or is kicked from the match by the host or voted by majority of players.

To fix this, you'd have to bring back lag kick, but ideally make it take longer to trigger in comparison to original GFWL Multiplayer if possible.

Read description

Is this still happening with the current networking?

Yes

Haven't seen it happen in a long time so probably No longer an issue/Resolved

Actually nvm right after I wrote this a friend told me this might still be a thing lol

As of 1.2.24, scripted peds can rarely freeze in place unable to do anything or be killed. having to get out of their streaming distance and back in to fix them. I've only noticed this on The Lost And Damned on the Own The City gamemode so far. This can happen as lobby host and without any other players within the peds distance.

Just play a match of Own The City and you'll eventually come across at least 1 turf defender suffering from this in a 10 or 20 minute match.

Haven't seen this happen in a long time so probably No longer an issue/Resolved

So I don't have to tell people to use the LAN option

No longer an issue/Resolved

entity.island always returns 0, JS.

Print entity.island on any island and it will always return 0.

See screenshot.
A tooltip would be nice for long server rules that get cut-off due to column width.

I took the bus driver job wandered around in a bus, and used /stopwork...somehow using /stopwork caused my client to crash.

The game launches and then hangs, leaving me with a black screen.. for some reason there is no error / crash message for me

I attempt to connect to a server, the game launches and then hangs, leaving me with a black screen. I can push the game window to another desktop to get to the "Unhandled Exception" window.

1. Launch client.
2. Attempt to connect to a server.

Disabled "scripts" cvar enables Pay'N'Spray game script.

There is a workaround for it:

gta.CHANGE_GARAGE_TYPE(garageID, typeID)

garageID list = https://wiki.gtaconnected.com/Resources/GTA3/Garages
typeID list = https://gtamods.com/wiki/Garage

This only happens, when in client-side script we had a some objects by createBuilding/createObject. When I disable it, /reconnect works perfect.

Try it on my server - Irrelevant III Server

https://youtu.be/UH3jvds3T-Q

For GTA SA

After updating my client and server to version 1.5.1, GTA III has started crashing on me consistently any time I join my server with the client after already having downloaded the server's files for the client itself. First joins after clearing the cache and other resources does not cause it, nor does the initial join where the files are downloaded. Any attempts to join again after results in an unhandled exception crash.

1. Join the server to download the files and play.
2. Disconnect and quit the game after downloading and successfully joining/logging in/playing normally.
3. Launch the client and connect to the server again.
4. Upon the scripts loading, (which display a login screen and temporarily hide the chat box), the unhandled exception occurs.
5. Clicking "Continue" results in a crash and cannot be bypassed.

A dump file has been included. The issue does not appear to happen with the other games. I have not tested this with a default server to rule out resource issues, however everything seems to have worked fine in version 1.5.0.

It'd be very useful if we were able to get the handle of another player in the same session. However, it only ever returns a handle if the id you supply the argument with is your own player ID. (natives.getPlayerId())

You cannot grab the handle of a networked player. This is an issue.

(Possibly related to my previous issues regarding player ID's allocating backwards.)

Which native are you needing another player's handle for?

I highly recommend using GTAC's scripting functions for elements. Natives are only meant to be a stop-gap for things we haven't added to the main scripting API.

getClients() returns an array of Client objects, each of which have a player property, which points to their ped. It's also usable in natives where a ped object is accepted as an argument.
Same with vehicles and such.

Of course, allowing this would allow for rule-breaking very easily. However, for private servers, like one I'm currently hosting myself for friends, having the option to allow ".asi" modifications to the game would be an absolute blessing. I use "quality-of-life" files, like a fix for widescreen and better camera movement.

It'd be REALLy nice - and I'd play the game a whole lot more if this was an option. Thank you!

Anticheat, Configuration, Server, Suggestion

(N/A.)

(N/A.)

I don't think this is possible right now. Jack can probably give more details, but here's the short version:

GTAC needs to know which mods to allow when launching the game.
The connection to a server happens after the game is loaded, at which point we can't safely change which mods to allow or block.

The local player money HUD does not increase or decrease at all UNLESS your player id is 0. If your player id is 0, it works perfectly fine.

It is possible that this issue is related to the previous issue I posted regarding player ID allocation going backwards. Link here: https://bugs.gtaconnected.com/view.php?id=462

Player ID's are meant to go from 0 to 31

Instead on GTAC, the ID for the beginner host is 0, and the next player that joins gets the highest available ID. Each player that follows then get that ID - 1

Deathmatch money counter is broken for all players except for the player with ID 0.

Please make a second bug report for the death match money issue.

What are you using to get a player's ID?

natives.getPlayerId()

Can also check internally through memory too that the ID is also incorrect.

The reason why I included the deathmatch money counter in the same bug report is because I feel like it might be related in some way. It certainly IS related to player ID's as it only works correctly for player ID 0.

Vec3 parameter not working for natives createObject and getViewportPositionOfCoord

likewise for natives.createPickup().

(Originally suggested by PerikiyoXD)
There's no way of changing CVars by default on the console.

cvar set UniqueStuntJumps 1
[cvar] UniqueStuntJumps = 1

cvar get UniqueStuntJumps
[cvar] UniqueStuntJumps = 0

Scripting API has some specialized functions for on-the-fly toggling:

setTrafficEnabled
setTrainsEnabled
setCiviliansEnabled

Another approach could be:

setCVar("traffic", 0);
setCVar("trains", 1);
setCVar("planes", 0);

This would also require resyncing the updated CVar to the client.

The effects of some cvars may not be able to be changed without a reload of the game, so those might need to be marked as read-only somehow.
If they aren't readonly (and the server updates the cvar), incoming clients will receive the new one when connecting and their game will be set differently than the already connected players.

CVars are set once but those might be set only by the server on demand. Compatibility or stability might depend on the CVar.

So I'm thinking that a "read-only" state to the CVar system in Galactic might solve this issue

The internal function to set a CVar:

bool Set(const GChar* pszName, const GChar* pszValue, bool bCreate);

Perhaps a 4th arg like bool bReadOnly, and of course a bool member in the CVar class.
Using true for that new arg when calling to set the initial cvars from config when the server starts.

And an internal util function would be helpful:

bool IsReadOnly(const GChar* pszName);

This way we can have a server.setCVar in the scripting API without being able to modify the ones that can't (shouldn't?) be changed.

When i want to change the radio station, the game just crashes

The server crashes? What game crashes if it's the game?

I'm moving this to client, I don't think it's a server issue.

Something in the logic doesn't work.

Open a local server.
Open client.
Type /connect, then /reconnect, then /reconnect.

Expected:
When connected, running /reconnect should instantly disconnect you, and connect again. No waits. (Ignore network specific problems)

What happens:
Connects, then on reconnect it disconnects, doesn't reset world and state, and you need to trigger reconnect again to make it work.
