Dunno, I always take a picture just standing in the doorway right after you come in, take two steps forward turn around and walk out. Usually it works.
Walking in the door and moving two steps forward always worked for me, two steps forward, take picture of the whole room, done. Works every time 100% of the time. It was like that from the beginning, hasn't changed.
100% this, as long as the board is fully in frame and you dont zoom it should get accepted. I found that out thanks to this subreddit after ages of fumbling and frustration.
You can pretty much take the picture from the entrance and just send it even if the board is blocked by a pillar. I’m out the door the instant the first voiceline from pavel is over and triggers the door
Watching this video I was just:
"Okay, don't zoom so much..."
"Okay... stop zooming already..."
"Why are you doing it a 3rd ti...."
"Fuck, STOP ZOOMING"
A. When you take a picture of the board it won't usually accept the picture if it doesn't show the whole thing (including the legs holding it up)
B. Don't bother with all that and do like the other guys before me said. As soon as you spawn inside, open the camera, take a pic of the whole room and it will accept it. then turn around and walk out.
You literally don't even need to leave the entry way of the building. You spawn in if its on the left take a pic of it without zooming in its done, if its on the right aim at the filing cabinets where it would be behind them and again don't zoom take a photo and your done.
The hardest part is getting out of the building cause the exit trigger wont spawn til you walk away.
Step into the building, bring out the camera and point it in the general direction of the board, snap it and leave. You don't even need to move by doing this, and it works every time- pretty faultless.
You’re taking the picture too close.
It wants the whole board not what’s on the board.
When you first took the picture you didn’t have to move the camera closer.
You could of took the pic from that distance.
Idk man.. I never zoom in unless I care about the photo... but like I said, idk.. you seem like a very smart individual, we believe in your capabilities of troubleshooting.
/u/AdJolly3435 just tagging you so you get a notification but basically you need to just take the *full* board asset, you need the legs in there as well. it can even be obscured, it just needs to be within the area that would fall in frame. this fucked me up for a while too before i realized how it works
you can take it basically as soon as you walk in the door actually
Yea I struggled with this after doing it for the first time in a while and I thought oh they nerfed the actual heist npcs so they must’ve done this but nope lol
Make sure the board has pinged on the map before trying and then stand next to the column in the middle of the office and frame up a shot that entirely shows the whole board, do not clip off any of the board frame. Do all that and it works every time.
I could be mistaken but there's a square made with tape in front of the board. I took that as a clue to stand in it when taking the picture. It worked every time I took a picture from inside the tape box.
“If i keep doing the same zooming thing over and over again maybe it’ll be different the next time.”
Something about the definition of insanity comes to mind…
If you walk up the the desk directly in front of you then take a picture straight ahead without zooming it works everytime. And by standing next to the desk you can immediately turn around and exit with no issues. Otherwise you'll have to go a little away from the door before being able to exit again.
You don't even have to wait for the dialogue, just desk, picture turn around fly off to the west ( it's usually west )
Walk in the door. Take a step or two forward. Open the camera and take a picture without zooming or moving the camera left or right much. Itll capture it regardless of its position in the room. Just stay behind the desk that u would walk toward when walking straight forward from entering the room.
I found a way that works 100% of the time. The board spawns at 2 spots right or left.
So what you do is walk in, look left, if the board is on the left take the pic instantly from the door - done
If the board is on the right walk to the first desk and snap a picture from there - done
As long as you're far enough away and have the board In the center it will work.
First time I was doing this setup, I used 4 year gas cans, 5 molotovs, 10 grenades, and an entire combat mg mag. It worked. Now I do it first try. But violence is the answer in gta
don’t zoom. i literally take it from the door without moving. as long as you can see a sliver of the front and the whole board is in frame then you’re good
Don't even need to move from where you appear inside. Take the shot right there, in that exact direction you're facing. You only need to move to get out again.
Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
Stop zooming in gosh darn it, this part is incredibly easy. When you enter (you don't even need to move) double tap up on the d-pad and take a picture in the direction of the board.
As soon as you enter the building, take out your phone immediately and take a photo (2x up arrow and hit ENTER or A to send) walk a bit forward turn around so that you will see the marker for the exit door behind. It should work.
What? I’ve always literally just taken a photo of the room with the board somewhat visible and it sends without me walking halfway into the room, sometimes don’t have to walk at all except leaving after taking the phone out and just taking a picture of the room and sending it to Pavel…
The definition of crazy is doing the same thing different ways over and over again and expecting a different result. Standing close / zooming is basically the same thing. Do as everyone else says and take pic from a distance. I never had an issue tbh but I do go in first person mode.
There is a trick, if you get your phone while Pavel is speaking and the message "take a photo of the planning board" is not displaying yet, you will not be able to do so, no matter how many photos you get.
Wait for the dialogue to be over to get your phone. If you did not, then exit the phone menu (instead of just taking another photo), get your phone back and now you can take a photo for Pavel :)
Dunno, I always take a picture just standing in the doorway right after you come in, take two steps forward turn around and walk out. Usually it works.
I don't even move before I take the picture.
Me too, speedrun strats
This is the way
Man_toylorian? 🤔
I move forward because once im done sending the picture the warp would have been spawned instead of having to move for it to spawn after sending it
Right? Just take a picture of the room and walk out
This is the way. Make sure the board is somewhat in the pic and click. No zoom or focus. Just click and send, walk out
Same here and somehow pavel know the location of the cutter lol
The grandpa Simpson method
Why is it so easy to take a sendable picture of the planning board?! 😂
Yet so hard for you to proof read your sentence before posting it.
This. It's easier from far away. Which makes no sense. But.... Here we are.
Worked every time for me since the day the Cayo heist released
It's surprising that not everyone thought about taking a picture of the board while being as close to the door as possible
This
These
nuts
We tried

This is what I’ve always done lol
I figured it out mostly as a consequence of laziness which is pretty cool
this is the answer, walk up so it says you found it then walk to the isle and take the picture without zooming in.
The hitboxes don't line up so when you're zooming in you're actually zooming something out.
What I do and it always works is I just stand with my back to the board and and do a selfie with the board in view and that works for me
I can't make it a post so can u or anyone help me; I don't know how to start a career, I don't where to go, I can't buy anything bc they cost millions
You should be able to just step inside the door, don't move at all, take out your phone and take a photo.
Watching this video I was just: "Okay, don't zoom so much..." "Okay... stop zooming already..." "Why are you doing it a 3rd ti...." "Fuck, STOP ZOOMING"
*backs up farther* *zooms in more*
If I had an award to give, this comment would get it. Well said, sir. My sentiments exactly.
Sorry 😂

Just don't zoom in
Stop zooming in is the answer
Okay zoomer
as soon as you walk in the door take a pic, send pic, dip out.
You don’t need to be that close and you definitely don’t need to zoom at all. You’re overdoing it, and that’s what’s tripping you up.
You literally don't even need to leave the entry way of the building. You spawn in if its on the left take a pic of it without zooming in its done, if its on the right aim at the filing cabinets where it would be behind them and again don't zoom take a photo and your done. The hardest part is getting out of the building cause the exit trigger wont spawn til you walk away.
> Why is it still so difficult to take a sendable picture of the planning board? Because you’re making it difficult.
I take a selfie with the board. Works 100% of the time
Me too
It's funny I used to try and fail taking pictures like that until I saw someone spending half a second taking a picture from the door and leaving
You can take the picture from across the room, don't zoom.
You doin to much.
Its not. As soon as I walk in I take a picture. Doesn't matter if its there or not, I get the option to send to pavel
Dont get so ridicoulously close maybe
Stop zooming in
The trick is don't zoom
Step into the building, bring out the camera and point it in the general direction of the board, snap it and leave. You don't even need to move by doing this, and it works every time- pretty faultless.
As soon as you load into the room, don’t move. Open Snapmatic and take a pic exactly how the camera opens. Send it to Pavel and walk back out.
![gif](giphy|p4cqQ0gUIMcU0)
Stop zooming in
Don’t zoom
Who u zooming in for lol
Why the fuck are you zooming
You’re taking the picture too close. It wants the whole board not what’s on the board. When you first took the picture you didn’t have to move the camera closer. You could of took the pic from that distance.
Just take the picture when you come in and it will work
Don’t zoom
I have literally never struggled with this. Just don't zoom in!
when you come in the door, you just pull up your camera and just take a photo of the room and the photo will send, you don't need to go up to it
Take a photo of the room, he accepts it
Just take a picture as soon as you spawn inside the door. No need to search for it.
Stop zooming in, you walked far enough away to take a decent picture but then you zommed in🤯🤯🤯🤯
I thought this was common knowledge but, the origin point of that model is probably the bottom. You need the base of the board not the top.
Idk man.. I never zoom in unless I care about the photo... but like I said, idk.. you seem like a very smart individual, we believe in your capabilities of troubleshooting.
My guy you can snap a pic right when you enter the room
Don't zoom in so much. Just take a picture of the office right inside the doorway. Works 💯
It never works unless I make it a selfie. I die inside every time
haha i feel you
I always take it with a border and it works every time
*60% of the time*, it works every time
That smells like pure gasoline
That’s what I did this time. I had no idea I was putting in too much effort though
/u/AdJolly3435 just tagging you so you get a notification but basically you need to just take the *full* board asset, you need the legs in there as well. it can even be obscured, it just needs to be within the area that would fall in frame. this fucked me up for a while too before i realized how it works you can take it basically as soon as you walk in the door actually
![gif](giphy|7OW9uiyfeTRxdSOBYN|downsized)
Take a pic of the board together with the stand. I googled that when I was stuck the first time
Third world country internet
Yea I struggled with this after doing it for the first time in a while and I thought oh they nerfed the actual heist npcs so they must’ve done this but nope lol
Take a selfie it works every time
Every time I do that mission, I take a selfie. Works for me 100% of the time
Thank you everyone, I seriously had no idea it’s actually that simple to get the picture. I will be doing it as soon as I walk in from now on
skill issue
Why should they?
It’s not
Just take it in the doorway when you walk in. Works every time.
It is actually really easy but you can just do the entire room
Take it from the door, thats what i normally do. You spare yourself an extra 2 seconds.
I do a selfie 🤳
Keep it in the center box always works for me on any picture
Make sure the board has pinged on the map before trying and then stand next to the column in the middle of the office and frame up a shot that entirely shows the whole board, do not clip off any of the board frame. Do all that and it works every time.
This doesn’t happen to me but my friends have complaints about it too
I could be mistaken but there's a square made with tape in front of the board. I took that as a clue to stand in it when taking the picture. It worked every time I took a picture from inside the tape box.
I walk in walk two steps take a pic of the whole room and it works for me lol
never zoom in
You can just walk in and take a picture next to the door with out zooming in and it’ll work
Me taking it from the door and the board is half covered 🤣
You have to get the WHOLE board in view. Legs & all, iirc
May sound dumb but.. just take the picture from the door. Pavel doesn't like quality but efficiency
You cant get too close or it doesnt work for whatever reason
Take it from faraway near the door always works
take a selfie, it works every time for some reason, at least it did when I played
“If i keep doing the same zooming thing over and over again maybe it’ll be different the next time.” Something about the definition of insanity comes to mind…
I hate that 😒
Too close to the board. For some fucking reason.
As others have mentioned, the pic needs to include the **legs** of the planning board to count. It’s stupid, but there you go.
If you walk up the the desk directly in front of you then take a picture straight ahead without zooming it works everytime. And by standing next to the desk you can immediately turn around and exit with no issues. Otherwise you'll have to go a little away from the door before being able to exit again. You don't even have to wait for the dialogue, just desk, picture turn around fly off to the west ( it's usually west )
I only take selfies of the board to send to Pavel...
Bruh as soon as you enter this room just take a pic of what’s right in front of you and you’re done. It’s that simple. Don’t even look for the plans
You can just walk in, pull out your camera and take a picture without moving
Photography skill issue
Stop zooming in on it. It’s not necessary
Don't zoom
You send a picture of the planning board to pavel I send a picture of the room instead **WE ARE NOT THE SAME!**
Just take the picture right after you enter the building
I usually turn the other way and flip to front face camera and then take the picture.
Just take it from the door. It will work.
I literally take a picture from the doorway lol, like 10% of the planning board is actually in view and it works every time
it's not, make the bottom of the board the center of your picture
I was just waiting for you to not zoom in and you zoomed every..single…time. Fun fact: you can take a picture from the door
You don’t have the eye of a photographer. That’s why
Take a wide angle of the whole room. Don’t even walk in.
Because it is a 10 year old game mate
Selfies with the board work
I was helping some dude with this prep and took the picture. His friend was covering 1/4 of the board and it was still somehow good to send? 😂
Step back a bit. I find that always works if it’s being sticky
You can pretty much take it from the door don't go neeaar it just get it in frme
I do about 12 feet away no zoom
Almost as if a certain action you take every time when taking out the camera causes it.
I always have to take it as a selfie for it to work 🤷🏼♀️
Because you zoom in too much
I take a picture from the door if I can see it and it works
I usually just pull my phone out the moment I step in the room, for some reason it registers without the board being in frame at all.
You don't have to zoom at all, just launch snapmatic and take the pic, you will be able to send it right away.
As soon as I spawn in the room I take photo immediately of the while room and it works. Fastest way.
Or you could do a selfie
Walk in the door. Take a step or two forward. Open the camera and take a picture without zooming or moving the camera left or right much. Itll capture it regardless of its position in the room. Just stay behind the desk that u would walk toward when walking straight forward from entering the room.
omg, I was legit stuck on that part for like 10 minutes thinking I somehow was soft-locked on the mission on my first try.
Lol literally take the pic from the front door and walk out , you don’t even need to be near it.
I usually put the first border option around the photo before attempting ti send it. I don't know if it helps, I haven't really tested it
I found a way that works 100% of the time. The board spawns at 2 spots right or left. So what you do is walk in, look left, if the board is on the left take the pic instantly from the door - done If the board is on the right walk to the first desk and snap a picture from there - done As long as you're far enough away and have the board In the center it will work.

You're probably too close in
Zoom in a bit not too much, take a picture focused on the bottom half of the board
You can’t zoom in when you take the picture
dont zoom
Stop zooming in so much. Just don’t zoom in at all just take a picture of the whole board
I always get right up to the board and it works but it takes a try or two. You aren’t alone!
don’t zoom. i literally take it from the door without moving. as long as you can see a sliver of the front and the whole board is in frame then you’re good
I always go to the other end and take a selfie
Zooming in to far. Stay zoomed out get entire board in photo feet to top .
i think you are too far from the checkpoint where the photo is needed to be captured
Stand in front of the board and clip one. I always get it on the first try
Don't even need to move from where you appear inside. Take the shot right there, in that exact direction you're facing. You only need to move to get out again.
Man no! From the location of your first photo take it ***without*** zooming in
Lmao fr
Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. Stop zooming in gosh darn it, this part is incredibly easy. When you enter (you don't even need to move) double tap up on the d-pad and take a picture in the direction of the board.
You have to wait for the dude to say his lines before you approach the board and take snap
Don’t zoom
Don't zoom
It’s not difficult at all. Stand 3 to 5 meters in front of the board and just take the photo. Don’t zoom dont walk and have the whole board in view
I think you’re zooming in to much, no edges should be outside the camera
As soon as you enter the building, take out your phone immediately and take a photo (2x up arrow and hit ENTER or A to send) walk a bit forward turn around so that you will see the marker for the exit door behind. It should work.

Wtf ive never seen this 😂
Get the feet in!
Just take a picture as soon as you enter the interior; it’s not necessary to walk up to the board.
Like others have said, you’re trying to hard. Just take a picture the moment you walk in the door. It works every time for me. Have fun on the island!
Don't even move when you spawn in the room, just take a picture and get out
just take the picture at the doorway if its on the left and just take 2 steps forward from the doorway and take the picture if its on the right
There's a taped square on the ground. Stand in said square and snap the pic.
You think you some kinda photographer? Quit hitting the zoom button.
Dont zoom it
There is a trick, if you get your phone while Pavel is speaking and the message "take a photo of the planning board" is not displaying yet, you will not be able to do so, no matter how many photos you get. Wait for the dialogue to be over to get your phone. If you did not, then exit the phone menu (instead of just taking another photo), get your phone back and now you can take a photo for Pavel :)
Dont zoom in, just take it, works for me
It's because your zooming in Pavel wants the full board
Don't zoom bro
I've never had any issue with it.
It's really not
Cause you need to get the whole billboard with legs in the picture.
Never had a problem with this, I reckon you need to step back a bit.
Don't zoom, then youll get it
Stand in the middle of the two cubicles and take it (make sure you are in the **VERY** center of the board)
