TDM Spawn Points
by ScottyB- 1 follower
- 7 replies
- 1.6k views
I was wondering if any body knows how spawn points work when you die in specifically a team deathmatch. If there isnt any official information on it, what are your theories based in your observations? The reason I want to know, and every creator should, is so that it will help me predict what will happen during a TDM and I can place spawn points accordingly. I would assume that it would place you away from your enemies and closer to your team after analysing a few other variables.

STEAL MY IDEAS WOULD YOU?!?!

How would you as a creator feel about someone 'copying' a creation you had? A lot of the stuff I make is a good idea executed poorly (sometimes a bad idea executed poorly), I publish it in the hope that someone plays it and sees the potential, then goes off and makes a better version. I'm not precious about my jobs, they're not copyrighted.

Minigame Madness

I'm wanting to get more into the GTA creator, but don't have the motivation to create true competitive jobs. I played a couple of Squirrel_Army's and JustHatched's jobs that felt like minigames. They are just fun little jobs that can be competitive but the ridiculousness of them lets awful players like myself join in and have fun so it's not all about winning. I need some inspiration and would love to test out some of the crews ideas maybe they thought of but c.b.a. to make. I'll list a few of my ideas and please feel free to shoot some ideas at me! Even if they aren't realistically able to be made into a proper game, we could run a spin- off of it. Some would only work w…

Creator Tips & Tricks
by Squirrel- 2 replies
- 897 views
After my Panto Park the other night DC recommended that I changed the race so it was just locked to Panto's. I knew how to lock a race to a certain class of vehicle but didn't know how lock to a specific car so I asked google to see if they knew. Of course google being google, they know everything! Deselect the classes that are not required. Highlight the required class then press square. Deselect the car types you don't want to compete in the race. Hopefully this should mean that the race can only be contested by Panto's. What I don't know is if custom Panto's will be the only option when custom vehicles are allowed on. A tip for using floating pla…

Floating platforms on water
by Squirrel- 6 replies
- 1.4k views
Ronny made a waterworld death match using the floating platforms and a little trick to place objects on the platforms by placing them on land 1st then moving them to the platform. I have managed to get this working fine, however when I try to place a helicopter on the same platform, I'm unable to place them where I want and I'm left with this instead: Does anyone have ideas on how to get them to sit in the vacant space on the platform? I'm pretty sure they will all explode once I hit test.

Is this now possible or a glitch? Last night I quick-joined a deathmatch from the in-game phone on PS4 and was put into a user created vehicle deathmatch. In the lobby options, it said 'deathmatch type' - 'vehicle'. It was a Lazer battle and it had room for 12 players, the host was not the creator of the job. I hope it is now possible, I enjoy vehicle deathmatches.

I'm trying to create a 30 person GTA race with taco vans, but I can't seem to find a location that will allow a large grid for 30 racers. 16 seems to be the most racers I can get with a large grid. Any thoughts/tips/etc. would be greatly appreciated.

I'm not much of a creator myself--I'd like to be, but at the moment, I am more of an avid supporter of the creator community. With that said, the latest update has seriously damaged certain abilities that were once present within the creator. One of the biggest is the removal of DLC weapons for placement within captures and deathmatches. As of the latest independence day update, the Assault SMG, SNS Pistol, Heavy Pistol, Vintage Pistol, Broken Bottle, Antique Calvary Dagger, Special Carbine, Bullpup Rifle, and Gusenberg Sweeper have been disabled and removed from the weapons drop menu. Meaning: you cannot place the items anywhere on your map nor can you use them as…

Hydra

I seen DC post some where on here about the Hydra jet being in the creator, so I loaded the game and No Room For Error to see if I could edit this in. In the jets class it does now say I have 2 of 3 jets selected, but when expanded it shows the lazer and besra, not the 3rd jet (assuming it is named Hydra). Tried to get it in new air race and as a capture vehicle but I can't, so my question is does anyone know how to get it or is it just merely a R* fuck up and it is there, but not really.

Links to RSC
by zmurko- 4 replies

Don't know if it's a permanent change or just something temporarly not working, but it appears the shortlinks to creations on Rockstar Social Club no longer work. The Share tab on creation now gives a full length link: previously: http://rsg.ms/... now: http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/games/gtav/jobs/job/... So if this is permanent, it would be really great if creators could edit their links on their creation's topics. I already did change all 4 of mine.

Capture help, please!
by Jaggy- 6 replies
- 1k views
I'm working on my first capture - hold and I need some help. My map is complete and I tested it out and like it. BUT... I was wondering if the test play always shows just one thing to collect and once you return one object to the base, you win. I want this job to be like the other captures where you have to get, let's say, six items back to your base and then win. Does that make sense? Would it show this way once I actually publish this job or do I need to edit something to make it more than one to score a win?

Deathmatch spawn points placement
by vishesh_91- 6 replies
- 2.1k views
When creating a 16 player DM/TDM the creator asks to set up at least 32 spawn points. Now while placing these spawn points I tried to make sure that they're not close to each other so that there's no 'surprise mothafucka' moment and someone just spawns next to you and kills you when they have the 1-2 second invincibility advantage. The problem is that the creator forces us to place all 32 spawn points and I fear they all might be too close. On what basis does the game determine which spawn point will be used?Like say SP 16 is the closest to where my opponent is,will I spawn over there or SP 25 which is far away from the action?And is it programmed in a way to make …

Trains in Creator...

- 993 views
Does anyone know how these work? Are they just random or do I have to set the time of day to a certain time, ensure the track is cleared or something else? I don't think creator let's you place non-movable objects in the path of the train. I've got a Capture map that's played on a railway bridge and should have trains running down the middle of the action. They were on when I tested it and have they have been on prior. I changed a few things about the map yesterday and played with a couple of DB members last night and not a single train rolled through. Was that just bad luck?

I wanted to make a race just for the Regina, the rather old, slow looking car with a roof-rack full of luggage. But I can't see it on any of the lists of car types. Does anyone know if it is possible to have this in a race? If it can't be used what do people think would be the best alternative? What I'm planning needs something to look like a fairly cheap family car. I was thinking of maybe the Glendale or Warraner.

In the spirit of pure unashamed ego boost, I just wanted to share that Pier Pressure II just cleared the 1 million plays mark. For me, this is a huge benchmark, there are many much older TDM's that havent been played as much. It is less likely to reach the multi-million plays level now that R*-verification isn't as big news as it was 9+ months ago. people now have way more choices when it comes to R*-verified content to choose from. It is much more likely to get multi-million plays when the players are choosing from 5 or so DM's vs today when there are 27 to choose from. So to even get into the millions nowadays is a big deal IMHO. Sonuva Beach already cleared the…

Player Quantity In Title?
by Casey- 5 replies
- 1k views
Not sure where to post this suggestion, please feel free to move it if necessary. What about putting the player qty in brackets after the job title in the relevant forums so anyone making up a playlist can instantly see what jobs are suitable without having to open up the topic itself. Something like this; Breaking Wind (2-8) New to making up playlists for other people myself it seems to me like a good suggestion or am I missing an easier way to identify how many a job is suitable for? If so, can someone let me know. Cheers :-)

Liberator & other race related stuff
by zmurko- 9 replies
- 1.2k views
Has anyone managed to lock a track to Liberators only? I selected the entire 'Off-Road' class, then expanded it and deselected every off-road vehicle. When goin back into the available vehicles menu, it looked OK with 1/19 next to Off-Road class. Problem is, when I load my track in GTAO, the only vehicle available now is Injection. :/ Another on-topic question, while I have this topic open. I guess there is still no useful solution to the eternal Off-Road problem of preventing people to use a Sanchez in an Off-Road race, apart from locking it to a stock vehicle(s), is there?

Rate 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

Rate the Last Film you Watched 2: Electric Boogaloo
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
