    Nice to see an update, even though I personally don't own it on PC, thank you...this is incentive to pick it up someday

    How often do game updates break motion???

    Is it after every one, completely random, or can it go for several incremental updates before actually breaking?

    Just curious because GTA V seems like one of those games which receives updates far more than most 5 year old games should.

    Probably due to the online multiplayer rather than the single-player portion.

    Bummer.
    I hope that it hasn't been a waste of your time creating the plugins.
    I'd imagine the game would be quite fun with motion. :)

    Awwwww maaaaan!!!
    Why'd ya have to go and tell me this?

    GTA V is currently on sale @ Steam for 50%-75% off for the various base game & bundles.
    https://store.steampowered.com/app/271590/Grand_Theft_Auto_V/

    Hmmmmm, for $15 CAD it might be worth it for when motion is working.

    Now the question, the base game or the Premium Online Edition?
    I'm not much of a GTA guy, so not really sure what the differences are. :confused:

    Yes, I saw that a few weeks ago, but downgrading just seems like such a pain and it sounds as though that's a much older version (may be buggy).

    I'm still curious how the game is with motion, given there are so many different things going on (storyline, on foot, driving, bikes, flying, etc.)

    The Crew 2 is fun with motion, but it's strictly vehicles & racing whereas GTA V is an actual story filled game.

    You just get motion when in any vehicle or plane

    Perfect!
    Anything else would be too much.

    Hi,
    I'm using your latest version of plugin and GTA5 build 3531026 without any mods. Still having the same problem of no motion in game. The game is patched without any error popping up. I even tried manually add the directory to the "Game Patched" file, but it still didn't work (the "beep" sound is there when GTA5 launches though). Is there anything else I can try?

    If your hearing a Beep-beep when the game starts, then its probably one of your interfaces that can't startup correctly.
    Could be a loose wire or something. (really not sure what your running buddy)
    Take care,

    Every other game works for me except this one. So I don’t think what you said is the cause.

    Initially I was using an older version of plugin and my GTA5 folder had a bunch of mods. But after I updated the plugin to the latest version, and also did a clean install of GTA5, the motion is still not working. On the other hand I’m sure my DOF Reality H3 is functioning well with other games like AC.
    I read through all the 8 pages here, got the idea of manually changing the game path in that file with “Game Patched”, but it still did not work. I wonder if there are any special steps to do, like changing settings in GTA5, or manually changing some file, or it’s simply the usual steps of updating the plugin and patching the game. Also, is there any additional files in the game folder after patching GTA5? In my case there isn’t any.

    Oops!!!
    I may have bought this game too early by the sounds of it, grabbed it today while it's on sale. :confused:

    I don't have the plugin yet, but I'll be happy to test it out once I sign up for a weeks worth of downloading privileges.
    May be a while though, as I probably won't do that for just one game.

    I'll update here whether it's working or not once I do though.
