How do you come up with names?
by ScottyB- 1 follower
- 6 replies
- 1.5k views
For the most part, names are easy enough to come up. If you're using a certain vehicle, part of the map or have specific captures, you can come up with a simple and catchy name. I'm finding it a bit difficult to come up with names now, especially for races. I could easily call it the area and GP, but that's getting old now. How do you come up with fun and exciting names for your jobs?

Possible temporary fix for editing CPs
by SeymorScagneti- 2 replies
- 845 views
When editing or inserting CPs, just spin the CP around until it reaches the direction you want it to point and then hit X. It's supposed to stay pointed the direction you want it to doing it this way. A friend who creates a lot told me this but I haven't tested it out yet.

LTS and T/DM issues

- 6 replies
- 1.3k views
I've noticed starting weapons, LTS timers, and LTS ambient settings changing to default settings when editing in the creator since the update. Also, if any word in your title, description, or search tag is now on the forbidden list, you can't have an edited job 'versioned' until you change the word(s) or take it out completely.

So in a GTA race you can leave your vehicle and enter any other vehicle. You can hit checkpoints on foot or in any vehicle. With traffic ON there are going to be vehicles around. With wanted level ON there are some places that makes things even further interesting. cp's can be placed forcing you to leave your vehicle. What can YOU do with this? What I have been trying so far is to set a race to start on cycles, to encourage stealing something faster. What I also have created is a long race where you need to drop the bike and travel in stolen vehicles. I have included some areas like inside Fort Zancudo to get some extra action and the option to be airborne for a…

Capture Rounds & Time Limits
by Jaggy- 1 follower
- 9 replies
- 1.2k views
I've noticed a few creators like to make captures 2 rounds with a 10 minute limit per round. Is there a specific reason why this is done? I'm curious to know as a two round capture could easily take up to 30 minutes to complete since it's the best of two rounds. Pros on two rounds: - Both teams get to experience the capture from a different point of view. Cons on two rounds: - It could wear people out from spending up to 30 minutes in a playlist doing one capture. Personally, setting captures to one round and 10 minutes seems to work the best. It's like playing a TDM, but with more action happening. Feel free to add your pros/cons to my tiny little…

Hey guys so the title pretty much says it. I've been working on my Capture Panto Pigeon Shooting since finding out that once a panto is delivered the respawn is on the road bridge above the capture setting (On the railway). What I want to know is has anyone come across this? were you able to fix this? and if you were able to fix this what did you do? I don't have much experience with captures but have tried a few things, these are what I've tried but the problem still persists. Moved the repawn points of the two teams away from the pantos Picked up and put down the pantos Deleted all the pantos and replaced them I'm honestly at a loss and really want this capt…

Job Polishing

As per Hatch's outburst request, I have spent nearly 12 hours over the last few days in the Creator. I've been polishing my current races into better jobs. Now most of them were minor changes. Nearly all of them got Vans added to them. All of them received the updated Cars. A few got complete rebuilds. A few others did not get touched. The Scouring Series, Maze Bank Enduro, and Saturday Night Thunder did not get touched. So far, all I have left are from T's to the Z's. So any and all feedback on the changes are welcome.

I have created and published a new GTA capture and for some reason it isn't showing up under my jobs when I try to host it. I have gone into the social club and it shows up there, I have also bookmarked it and it still won't show up for me. I tried to edit and republish it and still nothing.. I spoke to G and he also noticed one of his captures wasn't showing up for him either. Has anyone else ever had this problem and know how to fix it? Here is the link to it if anyone wants to see if they can get it to show up in game http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/games/gtav/jobs/job/jEG4-XgwcE2vRsE_gqGMZw

T/DM spawn placements

How do you create races?
by Pb76- 2 followers
- 10 replies
- 1.4k views
Do you plan out a route using the map that comes with the game? Maybe you drive around in free roam, mentally mapping a route? Do you drop a CP, then randomly choose left or right before plonking down the next CP? Maybe you zoom right out in the creator and look for an intesting route that way? Or is there some other way that yields success for you? (I've tried all of the stuff above and have yet to make anything memorable or popular)

If I create an LTS for four teams, will it only be playable by four teams, or can the host alter the number of teams? I have an idea which will only work with 4 teams with a fuller lobby, and 2 teams if there are fewer players. I could make 2 versions if need be, but thought I'd ask here first. TIA

Jobs will not show up on RSC

I have 2 Jobs that are not capable of being Bookmarked. Sultans of Sandy Shores, and PowerSlide. I noticed recently that RSC shows them as requiring a certain rank to play them. Not sure how that happened. But this is what I see. Sultans of Sandy Shores requires level 3. But still will not show up on Bookmarks. PowerSlide requires level 8800. This seems a little strange. But explains why it is not available for Bookmarking. Any ideas what I can do about this, short of recreating them?

BMX bike races

If you've created or played a fun BMX bike race please post them here and provide a link to it on Social Club. I was not able to find any using the advance search function. I know De-Raux has one or two which might have come up but since they didn't it leads me to believe that search or tags might not work for these obscure types of races or we just don't have many in the crew. I played one hosted by a random a few months ago and at first wanted to quit but stuck with it and had a lot of fun. Forgot to bookmark it though. Looked for something similar here and only found the race by De-Raux. I ran that a couple times solo and it's fun too but not as epic as the ran…

Post-heist update issue with the Dukes, Marshal, and Carbon RS
by SeymorScagneti- 1 follower
- 3 replies
- 887 views
I noticed after the heist update, any race I had locked with the Dukes, Marshal, or Carbon RS somehow made these vehicles unavailable to choose during vehicle selection. Editing these races in the creator, the box next to them was unchecked. Even after rechecking the box, the vehicles cannot be made the default vehicle. You can select them after they are versioned and play them outside the creator. This issue might also impact races locked with the Hotknife, Khamelion, and the Blista Compact pre-heist update.

Props in a race
by Lann- 2 followers
- 10 replies
- 1.3k views
What do you think about the use of props in a normal race. How do you place them and why? The illustration is to show a turn where the yellow is the CP, the red circle is a tirestack and the black is a barrier. The most basic as far as my thoughts. In this case the red circle is to help the driver not to cut the corner to close, to prevent from hitting something or take a not intended shortcut. The placement of the CP is to guide the driver on what to expect and where to aim. Also its nive to see the next CP once you passed one, and that it is placed so you have time to react and plan your course. The barrier seems not needed, unless one wants to furthe…

235Rate the Last Film you Watched 2: Electric Boogaloo
Bladerunner (1982) dir Ridley Scott For me, this is one of the greatest sci-fi films of all time. It's a film that has be re-released at least twice. I have seen the original theatrical release, the 1992 Director's Cut, and the 2007 Final Cut. The 1992 version, I think, set the trend for other director's to release Director's cuts of their films. It's certainly the first one I ever saw. However, despite the name, Ridley Scott did not have complete control over that version. He did over the 2007 one, and it's that one that I am reviewing. I could not remember the differences to the 1992 one without looking them up, but both of the later ones get rid of a voice over (a bit like a 1940s detective film) and different ending that got added to the original after feedback from test audiences (I think). It's based on the Philip K. d*ck novel “Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?”. The basics of the plot is the same as the book, but the specific story is very different in places. I would recommend the book to anyone who is a fan of serious sci-fi, but it's the sort of book you need to really concentrate on. It was written in 1968 and set in 2019 when that seemed a long way in the future. The world the story is set in is way more advanced than we are now. Harrison Ford plays Deckard, a retired LA cop, a Bladerunner, who specialises in tracking down and terminating rogue androids, called replicants. These are indistinguishable from real humans to all but the experts. Even people like Dekard can only tell for sure by lengthy interrogation of suspected replicants that is designed to show up lack of emotions that real humans have. Replicants are banned from Earth, only supposed to be used on off-world space colonies. Any that do get found on Earth can be killed on the spot. Deckard is brought back by his boss Bryant (M. Emmet Walsh) and his assistant Gaff (Edward James Olmos) because a group of replicants hijacked a ship that was later found abandoned on Earth. They are believed to be in LA seeking their creator, Mr. Tyrell (Joe Turkel). The replicants, at least those that have not already been eliminated, are lead by Batty (Rutger Hauer) and others are played by Daryl Hannah, Brion Jones and Joanna Cassidy. William Sanderson plays Sebastian, a lonely man with a premature ageing disease who makes his on androids (not realistic or dangerous enough to be classed as replicants) and Sean Young plays Tyrell's PA Rachel. The cast are, overall, good, but Rutger Hauer gives the best performance I ever saw of him as Batty varies from charming, to psychopathic, to child-like fearful naïvety. There is a big plot element to do with Deckard and Rachel that I won't spoil, and various things thrown in that have kept some fans speculating as to the true nature of the various characters. If you know the film you will probably know what I am referring to here. I will say that I don't see in the film all the things that some claim to clearly see, but I see enough to agree with the consensus. Also some of the theories about that do not apply to all versions of the film. The sets and cinematography are stunning. It still looks to me well ahead of its time, as does Ridely Scott's Alien, so to me it shows what great film makers could achieve well before they had access to sort of CGI and AI tech available today. It also has a pretty good modern score from Vangelis. The best scene is the penultimate one, just with Batty and Deckard and includes the famous “tears in the rain” monologue that, apart from a few hundred years of technological development, would not have been out of place in a Shakespeare play. 10 / 10 The theatrical version I would only give an 8 to because, although I have only ever seen it once, I do remember the voice-over annoying me and the altered ending, a little bit added on, pointlessly changes the story.- 1

What I Watched This Week #172 (Apr 14-20) Alien dir. Ridley Scott/1979/1h57m One of the greatest sci-fi horror films of all time, Ridley Scott's Alien stars Sigourney Weaver as a member of a deep space mining crew who takes a detour to an SOS message on the long journey back to Earth, finding a crashed ship full of eggs. My favourite thing about this film after seeing it so many times is how worn and lived in the ship is. I totally believe that it's real and functional and that this crew has spent months living in it. The opening sequence where we explore the empty ship while the crew is in cryosleep not only builds tension but allows us to take in the incredible details in the production design. Speaking of design, H.R. Giger's design for the xenomorph is the best in movie history (though the lil guy who bursts out of John Hurt's chest is kinda cute and goofy looking). The aggressively ph*llic look of it works well with the very male perspective fear of r*pe and childbirth. The whole cast is excellent, alongside Weaver and Hurt you have Ian Holm, Harry Dean Stanton and Yaphet Kotto, the latter two making a great comedic double team. 9.5/10 Lime's Film of the Week! Now You See Me dir. Louis Leterrier/2013/1h56m Now You See Me tells the story of a group of Las Vegas magicians known as the Four Horsemen (Woody Harrelson, Jesse Eisenberg, Isla Fisher, Dave Franco) who rob banks live during their show, distributing the money to their audience. They are being tracked by Mark Ruffalo's FBI agent Rhodes who is determined to uncover their secrets. Totally forgettable fluff, there are some nice moments in here, and I liked the twist at the end even though you can see it coming a mile away. The big trick showpieces are entertaining in that artificial Vegas way that also feels hollow and meaningless. My biggest gripe here is with the four main characters and that I didn't like any of them. Like real magicians I found them to be annoying and so far up their own *sses that I was actively rooting against them every step of the way. The exception is Harrelson, though he comes close at times. There's solid support from Michael Caine and Morgan Freeman, with Ruffalo giving the best performance in the film. This is the definition of inoffensive cinematic background noise. 5/10 Cinderella dir. Georges Méliès/1899/6m Georges Méliès here with some more ground breaking work from the dawn of cinema. Not only is this the first film adaptation of Cinderella, it's also the first film adaptation of any fairy tale and also the first film to use dissolves to transition between scenes (with this being his first film with more than one scene). Watching this is to watch the evolution of film in real time, and, like the rest of his work, it's nothing less than magical. This is Méliès becoming more innovative and inventive with his films becoming more complex and technically demanding. The sets and costumes are beautifully detailed and like illustrations come to life. It's amazing to me that a film from the 19th century can still be so magical. 8/10 How to Make Millions Before Grandma Dies dir. Pat Boonnitipat/2024/2h7m This family drama/comedy from Thailand stars Putthipong Assaratanakul as M, a lazy young man who has dropped out of college to try and start a streaming career ("wow four viewers" his mother chides early on). When he learns that his grandmother (Usha Seamkhum) has cancer he thinks that he can weasel his way to the top of her will by moving in with her to care for her. A tender and gentle film that also surprises with some pretty dark humour, I found this to be incredibly charming with two excellent lead performances from Assaratanakul and Seamkhum. Seamkhum is particularly impressive in her late in life film debut as the wily old woman who sees through all the bullsh*t from her grandson, but also sees something of herself in him. The plot is fairly predictable - of course the two will grow closer to each other and form a real bond by the time she dies - but the journey to that point, and the touching epilogue, I really enjoyed. There's a lot of family drama with the grandmother's children but it always feels close to reality and not emotionally manipulative or overly melodramatic at any point. 9/10 Shock Treatment dir. Jim Sharman/1981/1h34m Shock Treatment is a sequel to one of my all time favourite films, The Rocky Horror Picture Show, and picks up with Brad and Janet (now played by Cliff DeYoung and Jessica Harper) a few years later with their marriage now on the rocks. To rectify this they appear on a TV show with the result being Brad getting committed to a psychiatric hospital run by Dr. Cosmo McKinley (Richard O'Brien) and Janet getting groomed for superstardom. This is perhaps even more bizarre than Rocky Horror, certainly more cynical, with the world now seeming to exists as a series of TV shows, a live studio audience never leaving, sleeping in their seats as the film happens on screens all around them. It's a strange dystopia that seems to predict the dominance TV would have over our lives to an even greater extent in the era of commercialism and Reganomics. If there's not a camera on you then you don't exist, like the antithesis of Rocky Horror's theme of "don't dream it, be it". Many of the Rocky Horror cast returns with the exception of Susan Sarandon and Barry Bostwick as Janet and Brad (though DeYoung and especially Harper do an excellent job in the roles) and most notably Tim Curry. I kept imagining him in the role played by Barry Humphries (most famous for playing Dame Edna Everage), a garishly sleazy host called Bert Schnick. Humphries is great, but we all know Curry would have been better. Another slight let down for me is the soundtrack. As a musical this doesn't really compare with Rocky Horror, though there are some catchy tunes in there, the main theme still popping into my head occasionally. 9/10 #21xoxo dir. Sine Ozbilge, Imge Ozbilge/2019/9m This animated short from Belgium shows a girl (Indra de Bruyn) and her experiences with online dating, hooking up with several men before finding a genuine connection. The most striking thing about this film are the visuals, with the film being rotoscoped, a process where live action footage is traced over by animators giving it natural movement, a process used by Disney for Snow White back in 1937. Here it's given a thoroughly modern makeover, with the screen bombarded with text and images and memes representing the experience of being chronically online. The aesthetic also calls to mind pop art of the 60's, showing that the digital world may be new but the problems of finding a partner are anything but. It's at times overwhelming, purposefully so, but there's still a cohesion between all these elements. The ending is a bit on the nose but it's well done, wrapping the whole thing up maybe a bit too neatly. 7/10 Toomas Beneath the Valley of the Wild Wolves dir. Chintis Lundgren, Drasko Ivezic/2019/18m Another animated short, this time from Estonia, this tells the story of Toomas (Drasko Ivezic), a wolf who is fired after turning down his boss's advances. With a wife and children to support he turns to prostitution and then gay p*rn. Meanwhile, his wife Viivi (Chintis Lundgren) is learning some things about herself thanks to militant feminist Alexandra Horn-Eye (Lee Delong). This reminded me a lot of Bug Diner, another charming and cheeky animation about sexuality and relationships starring anthropomorphic animals. That was stop motion while this is animated in a simple yet effective style, the linework wobbling between frames like Doug, the 90's cartoon. Like Bug Diner, this is also a very mature film with more human characters than a lot of live action films that tackle the same subjects. 8.5/10 No Home But Cinema: The Spaces of Chantal Akerman dir. Jessica McGoff/2025/14m (no trailer for this, so here's one for a similar film) This short essay film explores the films of Chantal Akerman through her use of space and locations, how she films them, how she moves through them and what they represent. McGoff doesn't narrate this film, rather her essay is presented as text on the screen over clips from films that illustrate her points. I like this approach and how it's executed. The text isn't presented in blocks but line by line and is edited with the rhythm of the film clips so that they're unobtrusive and allow you to fully immerse in the various worlds of Akerman. This doesn't go too in depth with any of her observations as they are things you will pick up on by just watching the films, but it would work as a good introduction to her and what to look out for in her work. 7/10 Hotel Monterey dir. Chantal Akerman/1973/1h3m (no trailer so have an extended clip) Staying with Chantal Akerman, Hotel Monterey is an observational documentary in which she explores the titular hotel, a cheap one in New York where she stayed when she first moved to the city, from the lobby to the roof. It starts off at night where her camera captures people milling about in the lobby, taking the elevators up and down. She then prowls the corridors like a ghost, her very formally structured compositions bringing out the textures of the grimy yellow walls. Methodically we move upwards until we are on the roof, it is day now, and the feeling of escape is palpable. We do this all in silence, and I mean total silence. No music, no background noise, nothing. Not only does this make us even more aware of what we're seeing on screen, but it also makes us aware of our own environment. An exploration of space is happening on the screen and in real life at the same time and it's kind of amazing once you notice that. It's like Akerman speaking out of time saying here I am, where are you? This also feels like a prelude to her masterful film News From Home, in which she takes the same approach but expands it to the whole city, though this time with sound. This totally isn't for everyone, it's not even close to what you'd call entertaining, but if you give it a chance you'll get so much out of it. 8.5/10- 1
