SP2MP No Lagswitch after 12.1 FOR MODIFIED CREW ONLY

uhm, i always bring my cars in to crappy's lobby, no problem for me there. the only time it did not work was while the cloud servers were shaky due to maintenance.

here's what i typed up to help various people who had trouble with this method. most messed up at the same step. the first part is from pepsigod's tut (which helped a big deal), second part is to prevent people from doing the same mistakes over and over again before they find out what they do wrong.¨

Part 1:

1a. Go into an invite only session and set your spawn location to last location -- with 1.12 using the interaction menu will not work, instead pess Start > Online > Options, then change your "Spawn Location" to Last Location.
1b. Go to your choice of location to SP to MP.
1c. Leave GTA Online so it saves your last location.
2. Head into an invite only session.
3. Go to the Xbox Games Store.
4a. Wait until the second or third bump (it doesn't even matter when, read my little info about the "bumps" at the bottom) when you're in clouds loading up the Xbox Games Store, then sign out (you can also disconnect your router, or unplug your ethernet cable).
4b. If you signed out you'll get kicked into the Prologue.
5. Disconnect your router so when you sign back in, you won't be signed into LIVE (not required if you have already disconnected/unplugged your internet).
6. Sign in, make sure that you are NOT connected to LIVE and only signed into your profile.
7. Load the gamesave that has the vehicle(s) you wish to bring in -- you should get an error saying missing DLC content, that's good.
8. Get your vehicle of choice (mod it at LSC if you want).
9. Go to the location where you left your character in GTA Online.
10a. Press Start > Online > Go -- you will get an error saying you need to re-download the DLC and get taken to the Xbox Games Store, just re-download the Beach Bum update, it'll only take a few seconds as you already have it downloaded, but the game thinks you don't.
10b. If you want to join a friend (e.g. crappy's lobby) then you need join their session (or invite) once you have downloaded the Beach Bum update and while you're still in the Xbox Games Store.
10b(i). Once you've accepted the invite/joined session wait a few seconds then back out of the Xbox Games Store, you'll be brought higher into the clouds and asked to join a GTA Online session, press A (yes).
11. You'll be taken into a lobby, you should spawn where you left your character and see the vehicle you just brought in.
12. Insure it, do whatever, have fun!

Part 2

for those having trouble with this SP2MP, here is where i found most people messed up:

after parking your car in SP (parking as in positioning, your SP char stays in the car), do not just sign in to live! go through the online tab in your pause menu, when you try to open it the game will prompt you to sign in to live (you already and still are signed in to your account on the xbox locally, you never sign out of this during the whole glitch). do this, and then stay in the menu and open it up one more level so you can hit "go!", even if you plan on bringing the car in to a friend's lobby (invite only won't work, someone else needs to be host). after hitting "go" you will get a message about the missing dlc, accept it and the game will redirect you to the store where you need to dl one of those packs that are labeled with "purchase". you only need to dl one, even if multiple packs are labeled that way. after dl'ing, get out of the xbl screen and remain on the store's main screen (one press of B away from backing out of the store all the way).

if you want to join a friend's session/ accept an invite, NOW AND ONLY NOW is the moment for that. after doing this the game won't automatically advance to the session, but remain in the store screen. wait for a few seconds, then back out of the store by pressing B. you will get the usual message like when leaving SP about all data not saved will be lost, yadda yadda. just hit accept and you will spawn where you positioned your MP char beforehand, the car parked where you left it, which should be close to your character.

if you want to bring the car to a public session it's all the same till the end of the first paragraph, but then you just hit B and back out of the store. sure is simpler and works solo, but public lobbies are a pain in the ass for importing due to obvious reasons, even more so if you have to do the glitch to store premium vehicles because the one you brought in is premium.

i failed 5 times before i realized my mistake, now it works as reliably as the last one.

as for storing, it's pwetty much the same as the old one, you just need an invite from someone now. also, when in crappy's lobby, before trying to store you best go and park your car in front of crappy (or have a friend watch it) and back out to SP, then rejoin, storing always works first try for me after that, at least the spawning in the garage tunnel (sometimes the door won't open in time, or i bump in to it because it's invisible. other times when it's invisible it also disappears and i can run straight to my car. this is the tricky part for me now, not getting to the tunnel).

make sure to run away from your car a bit before heading to SP, else your NPC-turned char might very well steal your car. and before you leave, make sure to have your spawn set to last location THROUGH THE PAUSE MENU! 1.12 f*ckED UP THE QUICK MENU SPAWN SELECTOR.

and don't forget to force save through putting on a clothing item or bulletproof vest through the quick menu. you'll see the orange circle a couple of seconds later, wait for it to happen, then maybe a half a minute more just to be sure it saved, then back out to SP. i even back out to SP from the location i want to be later once before initiating the the SP2MP glitch, like that it definitely saves your location and you can be sure it did because you spawn there when you get back to MP to initiate the SP2MP ( i always initiate from an invite only, should work for all lobbies, but for invite only i know it does).
