@Riley_N54 Hey, video screens should have audio, thats definitely a feature, sounds like an error, please DM me on discord @001hex with your log. Thanks.
@theyesman2077 Thanks! The fire's fixed in 2.0, and Hints=0 turns the reminders off. DanJaLey's right that in-world mode can't jitter, because it draws into the TV itself. But it'll always be low-res, because of how the game lets mods draw on TVs. For HD without jitter, try F8 > Settings > HD overlay sync at 1 or 2.
@DanJaLey Thanks for the detailed feedback! 2.0 fixes the half-screen and see-through menu bug. In-world mode can also go sharper now (NativeColumns/NativeRows up to 160x90). It'll always stay low-res, though, because the game only lets mods draw TVs with a limited number of coloured blocks. For full quality, HD overlay is the way to go. 2.0 also fixes the YouTube "no data" error, adds stronger left/right panning, keeps the video off the minimap, and shows non-English titles in the game's own font.
CHANGELOG
2.0
New
- Media app on your phone: Contacts > Media Player (Michael, Franklin and Trevor)
- Party Mode: link every speaker and screen within 60 m to play in perfect sync
- Music-reactive: party lights on club and PA speakers, a beat-synced drive-in marquee, and people dancing to loud music
- Venue Builder: blueprint-style 3D builder with a catalogue, ghost preview and snapping; save venues and place them anywhere
- City Screens: turn billboards, the Maze Bank crown or any wall into video screens
- Car Screen: car stereo video on a screen inside the car, no TV needed; move and resize it per vehicle
- Your own films at the cinemas: videos in MediaPlayerV\Music\Cinema play on the big screen when you arrive
Improved
- Rockstar-style menus, key hints and sounds
- Far fewer pop-ups; hints can be switched off in F8 > Settings
- Stronger left/right speaker panning
- The video no longer draws over the minimap
- Sharper in-world video mode (up to 160 x 90)
- Non-English song titles use the game's own font
- Video stays on the real surface of large screens, and people right in front of a screen hide it properly
Fixes
- YouTube "Couldn't play that stream" / "audio stream produced no data"
- V (fix onto vehicle) works while sitting in it, and with police and emergency vehicles
- In-world video only showing half the screen, and menus turning see-through
- Floating bonfire and props at the beach cinemas
- Cinema speakers facing the wrong way
- The drive-in no longer gets in the way of story missions at the airfield
2.0 has been released with many new requested features!
@jerome74 Thanks, great suggestions! 1. The next update adds a Media app to the in-game phone (Contacts > Media Player), and full gamepad support is on my list. 2. Since 1.1 you can press F6 in any vehicle for a car stereo with no TV needed, and a small video player in the car without placing a TV is a cool idea that I've noted. 3. When the screen drifts as the camera moves fast, it's usually Frame Generation, so make sure it's off. If you still see it, try F8 > Settings > HD overlay sync = 1. I'm also working on keeping it steadier. No such thing as too many requests!
@theyesman2077 Thanks for the honest feedback, it really helps. Your Music folder doesn't auto-play on the cinema screens yet, but that's a great idea and I'm noting it. I'll also cut down the pop-up messages so it feels more seamless. The floating fire and the airport speakers facing the wrong way are on my list (which cinema was the fire at?), and if the airport cinema gets in the way of a mission you can switch cinemas off in F8 > Outdoor cinemas. The video jumping out of the frame when you turn fast is usually Frame Generation, so make sure it's off in your graphics settings, or try F8 > Settings > HD overlay sync = 1. Hope to win you back with the next update!
@DanJaLey Thank you, you've been a huge help with testing! Going through your points: the in-world mode quality and the half-screen issue are on my list. The menus are completely redesigned in the next update, so the transparent menu should be gone. The minimap is drawn by the game on top of everything, but I'll look at keeping the video off that area. Speakers already pan with 3D positioning, but I'll make the left/right separation stronger like the game's own emitters. The square characters in titles are a font issue and I'm looking for a font that supports more languages. For the "audio stream produced no data" log: the link resolves but YouTube then refuses the actual stream, so it isn't your cookies. I'm investigating it. Could you try a SoundCloud link and a different YouTube video and tell me if those play?
@Jordienp Thanks man, glad you're enjoying it! About the video with no picture: make sure you're using a screen (F8 > Spawn screen / TV), not a speaker. On Enhanced, also make sure Frame Generation (DLSS/FSR 3) is off in your graphics settings. If it still shows nothing, try F8 > Settings > Video renderer > In-world, and send me MediaPlayerV\MediaPlayerV.log from your game folder so I can take a look.
@MarcusStone Glad you found it, and thanks! Good point about the Library tab being easy to miss, I'll make the tabs more obvious in the next update.
1.1 Update Released! Go Check It Out.
