Switched in GT this morning and all the cars in the "Race Car Pack" have an asterix next to them saying you need to reinstall the race car pack again.

This I did but to no avail, the cars are still unavailable to use.

Anyone any ideas?
 
Hey mate,just download the family upgrade for free from the psn store,that fixed it for me.Hope this helps

P.s. just a hint,the search function on these forums does wonders,just for future reference:)

Cheers buddy.

Just called tech support and the news is not that good. Had to delete the saved game file and do a full reinstall including all the updates, hour and a half’s worth, then hopefully all the DLC will be there to reinstall too (that’s the theory).

Will update this thread in due course.
 
Sorry to hear that,i hope all goes well.
 
Let me know how you get on FlyingFox... I also have this issue. Cars and tracks suddenly became unavailable! I'm going to try the family pack quick fix but would be interested to see if you uninstall and reinstall works.

When you say you deleted your saved game file, did you mean game date file? Don't fancy deleting my saved data!
 
I don't think this warrants a new thread since it falls under the same DLC issues... I just bought the, Speed Test Pack (Game Pack) £3.19. Sadly I can't download it. When I go into GT5 it's not in the DLC list but when I go back into the PSN store to click the download button, it tells me I've already purchased this with a message telling me to press the download button. I can't get any further forward.

I guess this is what I'm suffering. I go into the other DLC I've purchased in the past and does the same thing.

Sorry yes, game data file.

So deleted the game data file reinstalled the game and updates and.........no joy.
I’m still having the same issues except this time I found out that the track pack was also missing and the thumbnails of the cars have altered too. Some don’t show up at all, those that do have the paint work from dealership or gifted colours, but click on them and they are the colours that I have repainted them. Bizarre!!

Spoke to yet another tech who told me how to look for corrupt data in the PS3 which I did and found some. Didn’t tell me what or where the corrupt data was just tried to fix it, which it didn’t.

So I have to reinstall the game AGAIN and try that, but in the meantime a ticket has been raised and it’s been passed on to another team who will investigate further.

I await their response.

UPDATE: I have managed to download the Track pack and car pack again and have them again but the garage glitch remains.

To repair the missing and incorrect thumbnails, select the car and press the triangle button. Choose create thumbnail and it will be fixed. There is also the option to create all thumbnails for all the cars but if you have a lot of cars this can take a long time to finish.

Tell you what M8 that was a bloody top fix you gave me there, it worked a charm.

Cheers for that.

I await the dawn to see if my PS3 has had another meltdown LOL

Any idea what causes that in the first place?
