i just lost my whole game. i took the card out right before buying the re fd to see if it would win the gt world championship and when it wouldnt let me get in without a mem card in the slot i put it back in and hit retry. when i did that it went to a messed up screen and now when i try to start it up it just sticks on the auto load screen. this really sucks bc i was about 25.7 percent done and had just completed the first endurance, and i had 4 full pages of cars. this really sucks!

apparently it is not idiot proof

lmao!

ah **** happens but i dont feel alone now. It makes me feel good to know that some one is playing as much as me

yeah, the game is VERY picky about memory cards.



The best thing to do is to back it up with another memory card often (in the PS2 menu, not actually in the game) in case anything happens like this...





Haha..yeah we are not alone...

check out www.gtplanet.net

yeah, they ARE nuts!

you can turn autosave off in the misc. options menu

well who would think that pulling the card out while it wasnt in use would be a problem?

auto save is off but it still saves everytime you switch cars, another annoying part of this game

Yeay. Now you can go outside, have fellowship with friends, get a life, and perhaps drive REAL cars more often! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683329.gif https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683329.gif https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683329.gif

i only get to play gt4 2 or 3 days a week bc im busy with school, work, and my gf. i think i drive real cars enough, about 50 miles a day. its just annoying that ill have tio redo all of the liscenses and the tuning i had done on the cars, lots of tuning

Dont worry, I did the same thing on GT3, but luckily I had it backed up on another memory card, I had 98.3% of the game done.

ouch, that woulda sucked. i guess ill go buy another mem card tonight

wonder if that is to keep your freinds from "borrowing" your licenses without actually completing the test themselves?

I hate it how you have to save after everything you do. Sometimes i just like to **** around and buy various cars and not save it. I guess i can't do that anymore.

well you can turn the autosave off to not have to save after everything, but even with it off it autosaves every time you get into a new or different car

Wow so when it tells you 15 times on the initial load and 45 times in the manual not to remove the memory card they must have meant it.

well i dont actually read the manual, and it just says not to remove it while its in use. i thought it was only in use when the red mem card flashed at the top right, that would make sense

What's a memory card? I own an Xbox...

How many threads about GT4 killing you do you have Shane, Jesus, stop crying. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

More like wuts GT4... there xbox man.

how about not taking out the memory card, it pretty much tells you to like never take it out ever smarty pants!

well now i know! but like i said before it says not to take it out while its in use

There's two handy lights on the front of the playstation, when it's blue, it's in use.

NOT ON THE SLIM ONE!! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...R#>/tongue.png







really it shouldnt have been in use, the game was just sitting there

no power lights? that sucks

Uhh, there is a power light. When it's off the thing is red, when it's on, the thing is green. But you can't shut the power down totaly like on the big PS2, there's not button in the back.

exactly
