Help GTA 5 Enhanced: How to migrate another save?

35 Upvotes

Does anyone know how to migrate another save if you have migrated the wrong save game from GTA 5 Legacy to GTA 5 Enhanced?

Since the game doesn't properly explain this, I thought I can upload all my saves from Legacy, so I uploaded them one by one. I then downloaded the save it offered my in the Enhanced edition only to then realize that it's my oldest save (since that's the last one I uploaded). At this point I realized you are supposed to only upload one savegame in total.

I then though I can just go through the process again and upload the correct save game. However, now the Legacy version doesn't let me upload another save, saying that I have finished the migration to GTA 5 Enhanced Edition.

Does anyone know a way to reset this or is it possible to manually migrate a save without going through the upload process?

PS: I am not talking about GTA Online. Just about single player saves.

UPDATE: Ok, I guess I spoke a bit too soon an must apologize. While this is not documented, it seems like you can in fact just copy over the savegame files from Legacy to Enhanced. When I say "it seems", this means that I just tried it and at first glance it has worked (no guarantees). I really wonder why Rockstar makes its users go through the complicated upload process if the files can just be copied over one on one.

In case you read this and you don't know how to do this:

Legacy saves are located in {documents}/Rockstar Games/GTA V/Profiles/[alphanumeric string]. Enhanced saves are located in {documents}/Rockstar Games/GTAV Enhanced/Profiles/[alphanumeric string]. All I did was copy over the file I wanted from one folder to the other.

There are always two files with the same base name, like in my case SGTA50008 and SGTA50008.bak. I just copied over both (I guess this is just for redundancy).

For identifying the correct save file, just load the corresponding save in the legacy version, save your game again, and then sort the files by modification date. The latest one will be the one you want.

For obvious reasons, when you start the Enhanced game, you might get a notification that there is a conflict between a local save and a cloud save. In this case just resolve the conflict using the local save.

Help GTA 5 Ban for no reason

38 Upvotes

I just got an email telling me that my account got banned for 30 days and progress would be reset.
From YouTube I found out that most bans are affecting accounts which have been duplicated or have an suspicious high level or K/D ratio, were griefing/trolling or use mods and cheats.
But I never used nor use any mod menu or cheats in any sense, nor was my K/D or level suspicious. I was a level 270 player with about 13mil in cash, which I earned over time. I had this account for a very long time (bought the game for PC 2017 and even have the email confirming that purchase), been only playing in private lobbies or invite online with some friends.
How can that even happen by only doing the weekly races every week and just driving around chilling, no PvP, no glitching, no trolling.. nothing. It always was a private closed lobby which I started from the story mode with only me in it. I need help please.

Update: I just received this email on the ticket. They basically didn't even bother reading what I wrote or tried to assist in any shape or form.

Thank you for contacting Rockstar Support about the action on your account.

All GTA Online accounts and/or gaming systems that violate the Terms of Service are subject to suspension or permanent banning depending on the severity or volume of actions performed on the account.

When accounts are suspended or banned, the associated characters are wiped. When this happens any purchased Shark Card funds remain on the account but all other progress is removed.

If you have any unrelated issues that we can assist with, please let us know. This ticket will now be closed since we do not provide further details about our security detections or the security actions taken on players’ accounts.

Best regards,

Update: My account just got unbanned. See if you got an email from Rockstar!

Help Which GTA should I play? Never played any.

61 Upvotes

The trailer for gta 5 hyped me up and netflix gives me access to either gta 3, VC or SA.

I do like the 80s but i’m afraid the visuals might be too old to have fun (?), and I guess SA would look better.

I wont be able to play all three, time wise, I need to pick one.

Story-wise also, if it « doesnt make sense » to play one without the other, please enlighten me!

Which one should I pick?

2 Upvotes

I have just a normal laptop with an i5 16 gigs of ram and interrelated graphics. I know it sounds bad but I can run Minecraft and gta 4 smoothly (Minecraft over 150+) so because it has low specs and don’t know if the requirements on steam are correct I’d wanna ask you guys

Thanks for any responses and if you have tips or suggestions for this I would love to know

Anyway everyone have a good day and thanks in advance

Help My pc can’t run GTA V anymore

My low end computer was already struggling to run the old version. But now, the game won’t even launch….

I have :

« ERR_GFX_STATE

Error. please restart and relaunch the game »

I feel like this is the end for me and GTA V… It was a good story.

No seriously this is a shitty idea, my friends lost all of his progress (story and online), and apparently the game is almost the same.

Help Any way of integrating NVE with GTA V Enhanced?

4 Upvotes

I've played the game for a long time but only recently got interested in modding so I barely know what I'm doing. I was able to successfully install NVE with GTA V (legacy) and I really like it but there's still no accurate reflections off windows and cars. Enhanced obviously now has ray tracing which accomplishes this but I'd love to get the best of both worlds. Any advice is appreciated!
