Made some further discoveries. I tried playing a round of golf with Michael and Trevor again, like before, and it seemed to work fine...until Michael's ball disappeared on the second hole, causing him to swing his putter indefinitely.

The only way to get out of that was to kill him. I had a bit of fun and dropped a golf cart on him. Ran off, escaped the cops, then, when trying to hang out with both of them again, the blips disappeared AGAIN! That golf minigame is mega-bugged, you're almost better off ignoring it altogether.

Anyway, I tried my proposed solution mentioned in the last post, but it didn't work. The blips still didn't appear, even when hanging out with Lamar.

Interestingly, I was able to visit the strip club with Michael and Trevor, and they were able to watch at the pole (only Michael watched the pole last time I tried this, and Trevor wasn't interactable - they both were interactable this time). I thought maybe the blips would appear after dropping them off afterwards. Nope.

I...

1. saved on my phone
2. exited the whole game
3. reloaded
4. went back to the golf course
5. paid the $100 to "play" another round of golf (I could actually play this time!)
6. dropped Franklin with Spooner, like last time, after his walk-in animation played
   6.5. (paid myself $5100 back for that BS )
7. phoned up Lamar (blips are back!)
8. let him die in a gunfight
9. phoned up Michael and Trevor (blips are back!)

sigh

Hope that helps as well, cheers!

ZOMG I think I might have found a solution! I'm writing this down now while everything's still fresh in my head. From what I can tell, this brings the blips back!

Here's exactly what I did:

1. As Franklin (not hanging out with anyone), I went back to the golf course during its open hours and paid the fee to start the golf game.

It brought me to the selection screen where I could choose a CPU player/difficulty. Interestingly, even though I was by myself, it said I needed 3 additional players. Only one CPU player appeared in the list. Selecting it would do nothing (still need 2 other players); I couldn't start the golf game or even exit the menu altogether.

2. I entered Menyoo's Spooner mode and lifted Franklin (standing in front of the building, near the brown entry sign) high up into the air and dropped him. Then, I quickly disabled Spooner mode.

Naturally, as you'd expect, Franklin fell to his death and it respawned me back at the hospital, effectively closing that menu. (The same result could probably be achieved using a "Suicide" option in something like Enhanced Native Trainer).

3. I phoned Lamar and asked to hang out with him. After picking him up, I pulled up the pause menu. The glorious activity blips appeared! I tested it out by going for a drink (in the game, lol) - it worked!

I dropped Lamar off at the disbandenment/"see you later" point (IDK what else to call it) and phoned up Michael and Trevor. The blips worked for them as well and could also be visited! The golfing must be glitched or something, who knows. I'd try it again, but I should probably make an up-to-date backup of my saves first, in case this weirdness happens again.

Hope that helps, cheers!

Did you ever find a solution to this? I just encountered this issue and I think I know how it happened, but sadly not how to fix it.

---

I was playing as Franklin and did a hang out with Trevor and Michael. I drove up to the golf course and started a game. Michael joined me in one golf cart and Trevor was in his own.

Before I could even start the first swing, I saw a nearby NPC and killed them with the golf club (lol). That got the police on me, and Michael would follow me when I'd try to escape the police, but Trevor still stayed in his golf cart, moving forwards at probably slower than normal walking speed.

Trying to not get him killed by the police, I used Menyoo to boot him out of the golf cart. That, in turn, got him to follow me and I believe we escaped the police after that (or maybe we all got killed, I don't remember).

I'm thinking that's where the problem began, as after that I started having the same issues as you. My guess is that the game still thinks the golf session is active (even after saving+reloading, killing myself, killing whoever I'm hanging out with, killing us both, running away from them, trying to reset the glitch by entering the strip club, etc.) and therefore 1) hides other activity blips, and 2) prevents other events from being started.

If there's a way to manually clear whatever variable(s) the game sets during group golf game activities, I have an inkling that will resolve the issue. I have no idea how to do that, though (maybe a skilled GTAV modder would know? ).

Hi, my apologies if this request already exists. For the life of me, I could not find the search box to look through other requests.

I enjoy driving in first person view a lot, as I'm sure many others do, too. One thing that really bugs me about GTAV is the fact that the rear-view and side-view mirrors in vehicles look too blurry. If somebody could replace the mirror texture with a proper, much more clear mirror texture I would appreciate it very much.

So I was driving (in real life) earlier today and saw an undercover police car drive past me. They were driving an orange van with no markings, but had red and blue lights in the grille and on the inside windshield. I thought it looked so cool -- and then the idea dawned on me. It would be awesome to see this in GTA V!

It would be like this (feel free to post your ideas, too). During normal gameplay (no stars) every so often (maybe 5-10% chance) a ped will spawn in, either walking or driving a [seemingly] regular vehicle. This ped will take the role of a police officer and will use the voice of one, taking into account the appropriate gender. If you commit a crime with an undercover cop nearby, they will react exactly how a regular cop would (i.e. give stars, aim/fire gun at you, etc.). The undercover cops appearing as regular police blips on the minimap could be optional.

The cars they would be driving would be, as stated in the previous paragraph, the cars regular peds use. However, and this can be optional, they could have a speed boost, making them faster than normal vehicles (maybe fastest transmission, turbo, strongest engine, or other upgrades).

I hope I explained that thorough enough. I would be very grateful if a modder out there could pick up my idea and turn it into a reality

Thanks!

ISSUE RESOLVED!!

I discovered that it was Manual Transmission that was causing the issue. I edited the settings_controls.ini and under [KEYBOARD] changed Engine = X to Engine = F14 (yes F14 is a legit key).

Now when I press X to duck in vehicles the engine does not shut off!

Hopefully this post will be helpful to someone else in the same boat as I was.

I have discovered something related to this. Whenever I press X (my default duck head button), it toggles the engine power. Do any of these mods sound like they might include that?

I installed the following mods on GTA V:

• ASI Loader
• ScriptHookV
• ScriptHookVDotNet
• MenyooSP
• Enhanced Native Trainer
• LeFix' Speedometer
• OpenIV's .asi plugin
• PedSuicide
• Railroad Engineer
• ATM Robberies
• Cheat Remover (disables ~ button)
• Rob Fleeca
• SafeCracker
• Dismemberment
• Manual Transmission
• Working Burger Shot
• NativeUI
• GTAIV Burgershot Interior
• Working Taco Trucks
• Disarm
• Working Hotdog Vendors
• Remote Vehicle Control
• Strapped Lamar

All mods are the newest versions as of 12/27/19.

Now, in certain situations (always seems to be when the police want me dead) any vehicle I enter will not move.

For example, I found a Gruppe 6 truck that some workers were driving (NOT a randomly-occurring one that gives you cash if you blow the doors open, this was one that spawned near a bank and didn't give any money). I shot at it and killed the driver with a headshot. The police were right behind me. As I got into the Gruppe 6 truck I tried to accelerate but the vehicle did not move. The engine was running when I first got in (dead driver never shut it off).

I got out and got back in to see if that would fix it, and now the engine doesn't start at all. And it's not like the vehicle is all beat up, it's in pretty good condition.

I actually had to remove my wanted level w/ Menyoo just so the police couldn't unfairly kill me.

Here's a video of the truck not moving. I had to move it elsewhere using Spooner so that the other car engines around me wouldn't be distracting: https://streamable.com/xkyw4

I don't know if it's a setting I haven't changed yet back to normal or what. I'm really not sure what triggers this. Has anyone else experienced this issue, and might know how to fix it? Any insight to solving this would be greatly appreciated.

So I play GTA V (PC) on a large 16:9 computer monitor, and I sit fairly close to my screen (small room, ok ). Because of this, I often times will miss when a blip appears on the map, whether it be a bank truck, person saying "Help my friend is having health problems" (where they rob you), random thief that steals someone's wallet that you can retrieve, etc.

This got me thinking, it would be really handy to have a sound effect play when one of those kind of blips appear on the map, or some other kind of indicator to get me to shift my focus to the map.

Any modders out there that are reading this, I would be eternally grateful if you could give something like this a try.

Thanks
