Lowrider mission problem
Hello everyone, I a have a bug in my game. When I'm playing the lowrider challenge in the cesar vialpando mission, the arrows slowly creep to the center (the circle) from the right, but instead of going all the way smoothly, the game seems to skip ahead at least once per second, bringing up several "missed" messages on screen. Since the arrows do not pass by the circle smoothly, the two plot-critical dance missions are not complete-able. ( part of this text was used from another forum, because I couldn't properly describe the problem). I don't know what to do. Can anyone help me ?

Make sure your frame limiter is enabled.

It is enabled, still doesn't work.

Disable all sound in the settings and try again. Does that help?

Helllo I had to reduce my screen resolution to fix this problem. i played at 640 x 480. still had soem issue with fist couple moves but was able to pass the mission.

I CANNOT STRESS enoguh to remap your vehical special move keys so that arrow keys (directions keys) are opposit for up and down. SO when car dance move says down you will actually go up for some wierd reason this is how i passed this mission.

To Repeat remap special vehical move key to your arrow keys(direction). Up will be DOWN and down will be UP

I had the same issue I downgraded the game to v.1.0 and it kind of fixed the issue and made it much easier for me to do. Now it is smoother at first it was not.

Should I uninstall and reinstall the game ?

No just downgrade the game to v.1.0

I guess I will downgrade the game, but they still recommend to reinstall the game to have a clean start.

Yeah dude, thanks, you really saved me in this mission. Remapping down to up and up to down solved the issue!!!
Still though I played on an old PC with Win7 without that issue on the same game version, this Win10 might have some issue with buttons address in there.

Use a Controller, in Options go to Controller Setup - Joypad Settings - Invert Right Stick Y Axis. Works for the Lowrider Mission, easy

Downgrade the game is the best solution
