  1. You have to jack the Semi's that have the trailer on the truck, there are some trailers around the map however that you can hook up.

    Since my post I went up to Paleto Bay, there's plenty of semi's ready for the pickin' up there. Everything in south LS was locked up except the tractors and mostly they run around there without a trailer. Thanks for the response! :)


  2. Playing with friends is the best thing about GTAO. Couple buddies and myself had hours of fun driving big rigs W/ trailers up the mount chiliad (sp?) trails.

    I've driven around in big rigs in story mode, but everywhere I looked the other day after jacking a truck, every semi trailer is pin-locked, you can't hook up to them. Maybe this is a new thing since 1.09 I don't know why R* would block the use of the semi-trailers online. I'm a real life "retired" truck driver and find it fun to rip around in the semi's on GTAV.

  3. Does anyone know what the criteria is for selling more than one car in a session?

    I'm trying to thin out my fleet and move to a crappier neighborhood but after I log into online, I can take one car to LS Customs and they will buy it. If I take a second one, they say they don't need anymore cars. I've logged out, and restarted the game, I've changed sessions and they still refuse anymore cars.

    Ideas?

    Thanx. :)


  4. Haha, it makes no sense that they don't let you shop the accessories from there. Instead, on the right side of any Ponsonby's store, close to the center, is a glass case where you can buy watches and ties. It's small and easy to miss. Let me know if you have trouble finding it, I'll take a picture. Good luck!

    Really? That's weird LOL

    Online seems to be under maintenance from 9pm eastern for about 24 hours. I'll have a look when their back up. Gotta get my old school gangsta look happening. (Y):)


  5. For online I'd like to be able to buy property in the northern areas. I'd like to have a smaller apartment or even a trailer like Trevors and be able to buy additional garages. If 10 cars is some sort of limit, then let me break that up on 2 or 3 properties.

    Why can't I buy ties? I got this mob looking guy with a black suit & fedora, driving a black Caddy with tinted windows, but I need a white tie!! :)

  6. i take it you're chasing the coquette... snipe the driver from a distance before he starts speeding off... or blast him with a few shotgun blasts up close... after it's on the run, it's really hard to catch him if you're playing by yourself...

    I've never started out close to him, by the time I get anywhere near, he's already on the move. One of the jobs has two cars you're supposed to repo, I've never had other people with me on these things.

    I'll try the shotgun thing on him, they seem to come back toward you if you don't keep chasing them.


  7. I find that I can't do anything to stop and capture the repo for Simon. You can crash into it, run it off the road and no matter what it gets away. I've even managed to stop in front of it, jump out and try to grab it, but it pulls away and I'm left standing there. There must be a way to get the moving repo for the Simon job. I've spent as much as an hour racing all over the map trying to nail it down with no luck. What do I need to do besides ignore Simon's jobs?

    Thanx.


  8. Was on a job with two other guys to repo a couple of cars from a gated mansion, we had to crack the code on the keypad for the front gate to get in and get the cars. One guy finally got fed up and left the mission. The other guy that was left finally got it and we completed the mission. Is there some trick to using the keypad crack?


  9. :mellow: He didn't mean press select again. Go to the regular Select menu and look for it there.

    I'm a dunce! I figured it out. For some reason my mind insisted on believing the "Start" button was the "Select" button, I have no idea why :(

    I totally forgot about that inventory menu and have never used it. I feel like an idiot and I'm sure you guys were thinking it. It's all good now, thank you so much for all y'all's input!! :)

  10. There's also youtube videos on how to get yourself "unbanned". Plus R* already stated they won't ban people who were gifted money.

    Well for my Christmas morning gift from Rockstar, all my accounts, online & offline have been zeroed out. I was gifted a lot of money online, I didn't ask for it I just put it in the bank and spent some. This morning even my offline game has been nuked. :(


  11. Go to the select menu. Hold down select for about a second and a menu will pop up on the top left of screen. Go down to chat. Set it to noone.

    Couldn't find anything that says chat. Going into the select menu and holding select just takes you back out of the menu.

    Thanx for your input Rob. :)


  12. How does that work? I was standing on the street, another player pulls up in his car and then drives away. Two seconds later, I'm informed that a player gave me $450 million. Huh? How is that done and that fast??

    I saw nothing in the menu for transferring cash to another player. I'd like to know how it's done so I can give some of it to someone else (?) :)


  13. If you hold select and go down. there are Mic options. you can set it to no-one or just friends/Friends and crew. I don't think you can for Mission/race lobbies though.

    Nope, didn't find it. When I go to "Online" in the map/options menu and click on players, I get a list of current players there's no option to mass mute them, I wish there was. The only work-around I found was to zero out the voice options and just leave the SFX on in the Audio menu.


  14. No, sir. If I recall correctly, you're on Xbox. Thankfully, I am, too!It should work now. Let me know if it doesn't. Cheers!

    Actually I'm on PS3. I found some settings in the main menu and everything was turned on to "allow". I looked through the in-game settings and found nothing that wasn't already "on".

    Maybe someone with PS3 can tell me what I need to create a crew.(?)

    Thanx for your help Gunsmith! :)
