Oh hey what do you know? I was just about to expand into gunrunning but decided to wait until I had a little more money. The Chumash bunker is now mine.

Does the 2x sales bonus affect the Sporting Goods part of a full nightclub sale, or does it only apply to the sales you do from the bunker laptop?

As far as I know it's only the actual bunker, the nightclub shows no increased value.

Enjoying the sabre turbo custom I bought with the mad bunker bucks though!

Do the upgrade levels in your individual businesses affect how fast your nightclub technicians accrue goods?

OwlFancier
Aug 22, 2013

No, not at all, so if you're buying them for the nightclub just get the basic one.

But if you want LJT to shut the gently caress up, buy the upgrades. After enough phone calls, you may decide it’s worth it.

And if you shut down a business it no longer produces in the night club, ergo shut the gently caress up Lester

It seems like there have been some new players posting recently so I wanted to bring up some cosmetic car glitches that might be new to some of you.

Yesterday I learned about the 4D paint job glitch with cars. Applying paints in a certain order allows you to stack 4 paint jobs which results in a really cool sparkle paint job.



This uses the pearlescent glitch which allows you to put pearlescent paint on any type of primary paint. (such as matte like on the following car)



Another easy glitch is the colored stock rims glitch which lets you put colors on the stock rims of some vehicles. This lets you keep the unique rims on cars while still applying color.



I've heard of other glitches which allow you to put liveries on cars that aren't supposed to have them, but I haven't tried it out yet.

Go to LSC - I can't do it inside CEO office custom garage but I haven't tried using ArenaWars garage.

1. Select your matte color.
2. Back out, go to Metallics, but don't select one.
3. Back out twice to main menu.
4. Go to Plate, and change your plate color (whatever is cheapest)
5. Go back to Respray -> Pearlescent - you can now select your Pearlescent.

Is there a way to do this on things that don't have plates, like the Avenger?

Probably!

Here are a few of my matte pearls:

gray w/ lime green?
black w/ diamond blue
dark red w/ orange or yellow?
wine or black? w/ hot pink

I can't actually tell you which colors I used without performing the glitch again but here are some examples!

The colored stock wheels glitch needs the iFruit app (on your phone or Bluestacks emulator) but only works on cars without ANY chrome on the stock wheels.

1. Select cheapo wheel, paint them your color
2. Open iFruit app, find the car in your garage list, change wheels back to stock, process the order
3. Head to LSC when you get in-game text message, drive in, pay, you have colored stock wheels.

I've used this for Insurgents, Merryweather Mesa's and all my supercars (again, only if they don't have chrome elements on the stock wheels)


Here's the video for the 4D paint job: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9PbLB0JQxSc which I just used to make this:

The other cosmetic glitch I always use is the hat on mask glitch. You can use this glitch with either a telescope, or by correctly timing an outfit swap after getting off a motorcycle where you have a helmet on.

The telescope is the easiest method.
1. Put on the outfit with the hat you want, run past the telescope and smash the use button. You should run past it but activate a walk animation to get back to the telescope.
2. During the walk animation smash the interaction menu button until it pops up, then swap to the outfit you want to apply the hat to.
3. Exit telescope.
4.

I have no idea if you can do it out of order, but that is what worked for me

I have a feeling that possibly any metal paint job might work for step 1, but I haven't tested it

I need to start playing with the color glitches.

Showed woodch the hat/mask trick last night so confirm that it still works w your ceo office telescope. The correct order is to be wearing the mask first, then trigger the menu and apply a hat. Some places write it as wear the hat first and then do the mask

The colored stock rims trick does not work in the new Volvo sadly.

I miss the matte crew color glitch. it was just apply matte, then apply crew color and voila.

I had a series of eye melting full saturation neon supercars at one point, painted them thinking I could do it again, and they freekin patched it.

I think it works with hat/mask or hat/scarf or hat/goggles. All I know for sure is when you use the animal heads it squishes the gently caress out of it lol


biker helmet + gas mask


penguin + santa hat


mad about non stock colored rims


horse mask + sprunk helmet and bear + backwards hat

When does the weekly bonus period change over? I was hoping to do one more full SC warehouse and sell what's left in my bunker before it ends.

Also, is there always some kind of sales bonus going on week to week, or are some weeks just lame crap like "earn double cash and RP on golf and enjoy 50% off on sailboats & bicycles"

there are generally a couple things from warstock, a few super/sports cars, and some properties or property improvements on sale each week. the bonuses are often terrible, double cash & rp for specific races or arena wars or deathmatch kind of poo poo

Not sure if it’s same on PC as consoles but if you have the game open Wednesday night and keep it open, it will keep the same specials until you finally do shut it down and reload the game to get the new update

I’d anticipate a fairly busy night on weds with people trying to squeeze out that last warehouse so it shouldn’t be tough to find goons to help out

Is the cdkeys.com website sketchy like g2a? They have a package with gta v, criminal enterprise starter kit and a megalodon card for $37. A loading screen slide saying megalodon cards will get a 100% bonus at the moment, so that's over 16 million plus the stuff from the kit if anything isn't already owned.

I understand that means contributing to the shark card industry, though. But it seems a nice deal.

I finally got a nightclub and man is it nice afk'ing all day to then play later to do one delivery and make a decent amount with little effort. This double rate on bunker and cargo sales has been quite nice, too.

If you mean sketchy as in it's a risk buying off their store, no I don't think so. I've bought from them multiple times with no problems.

If you mean sketchy as in are they an unauthorised reseller, then yeah, pretty sure they're as grey as key markets come.

Guess I'd be concerned about being able to apply those things(criminal starter, mega card) to your existing game account, or if they need to go with the new blank account. Not quite sure how the starter pack works if you're already playing and have stuff- if you already own the included sketchy weed farm in Paleto, do you just get that amount back in your wallet or are you SOL? Same with offices like if you already have Maze West and thats the included ceo office, whats up? Sounds like an invitation to the world of R* support tickets to try getting everything cleaned up. This is on top of the issue of getting these kind of keys from cdkeys or g2a or ???

I got the mastermind pack and it netted me ~65,000 back from my MC clubhouse when I picked up the free one, nothing else had been bought that was in the pack to my knowledge. I think if you already bought the free stuff you're SOL.

As long as you can get it for ten bucks or less the Criminal Enterprise Pack is a decent deal.
