GTA V PC version

[AndrewEH1]

How are you PC guys controlling the game?

Keyboard, wired Xbox 360 PC controller, Xbox One/PS4 controller via bluetooth?

Mouse and keyboard online, changed the key binding to what i find easiest and works great for me.

Never managed to get along with any console controller (apart from the 8-bit NES one as a kid )

Xbox one pad for me, although I did use the mouse to shoot at the start of the game (just wanted to try it).I prefer auto-aim etc turned off, so found it much easier to headshot almost every copper at the start with a mouse.Most never made it to cover

Both, gamepad for driving and kbd mouse for running/shooting atm.

Might just end up on the controller only tbh.

Anyone know how to pan in Rockstar Editor?

If you watch this:

They do all sorts of cool stuff, I'm a little sceptical we have the same functionality though. The shot of Trevor running across the hill in the distance with the sun setting behind him for example, I don't think I've ever been able to set any of my cameras that far away.

AMD card? I disabled vsync and it fixed my lag. that's on a 7970.

But now you've got tearing?

I read elsewhere changing mouse input from Raw to Windows has helped others. Also run fullscreen not borderless window mode.

Bakc when on the 360 it didn't have online heists, tried my first 'setup' tonight and jeez..... bit of a painful experience as people seem incapable of surviving or working vaguely as a team.

Hopefully it's just a bad first time :\

Have been playing it in 3D.Still runs really well!

Play with the increase / decrease Nvidia convergence settings and you feel like you are there

Got an aging AMD 7850 in my current PC, 8gb RAM and and i5 3570K, is there any chance i could get this running on my computer, bought the XBONE version and im rather disappointed with it TBH its not the Big step up i thought it would be over the 360 version.

Arrived home from hols yesterday and set it to download at 2pm. Still only done 40gb of 60gb as of around 11pm last night on BT infinity

I had this card when GTA4 came out and couldn't max all the settings at 1080p (mainly textures was the issue) I think your current system will happily render GTAV better than Xbox 360 could, but not as well as XBONE. You could try and ebay your AMD card and get one of the newer NVIDIA ones (GTX 760 is about comparable to your current card, for reference), which run cooler and better than comparable ATIs.

OR

Get a second hand ATI 270x (which is what your 7850 is, but rebadged) and max the baby out at 1440p.
Word of caution on the crossfire though, I just binned my xfire 280x set up due to constant glitching and went for a more powerful single card instead. Xfire is awesome when it works but I think the whole bridging/syncing glitching is not worth the hassle. The newer gen 290 and 290x do not use a x-fire bridge so might be more stable (but currently a lot more expensive too)

Edit: your 7850 can be sold for £60-£100, you can get a far superior ATI 290 for about £190 on ebay (or the more efficient and slightly more powerful GTX 970 for £250), so your likely total outlay is about £120 to bring your PC to above current gen console standard

Same here.

High spec pc with latest updates/drivers for everyday, played fine for a few days, but today i had like 4 CTD's, i think i found out what's causing it as it happened every time i aimed my gun from a vehicle.

I've only just started playing missions, and everything went fine untill i unlocked that hillbilly (trevor?) and done of few of his missions, but then everytime i aim from a vehicle the game crashes.

Just been reading up on possible solutions, i read something about changing the settings ingame from Directx 11 to 10.1 which for some reason is suppost to stop that crash, will report back if it doesn't.

[Oakey]

Well i've only done the first mission and been arsing about since then but i had about five CTD's in a row today. Twice when just walking about and three times in the editor.

Well, not even CTD - it crashes straight from load; am updating driver (Nvidia 540M) and tootling around Reddit...

Did the disable graphics card thing, finally got the social club sign in box, signed in and now it's stuck on a 'loading' screen but flickering as if it is loading then restarting ad infinitum....
