ARGH!

I have completed all the unique jumps, except one and I don't know which one. :'(

[redrope]

Man, this thread is already past 500 replies! Sweet! This game is very sweet. It is the only thing I do besides check Neowin when I take a break from studying for finals. :pinch:

[shihchiun]

Argh... I can't beat any of the driving missions. Can't do the movie studio one, can't do the boat yard one, can't do the Malibu one, can't do anything. Is there any way to make it easier or do I just suck?

[Bizkit]

one the boat one and the plane one, turn on the slow motion code, and it makes it alot easier.

haha nice one tobbe

[dougkinzinger]

so.....someone tell me what happens when I beat all the missions? I get this helicopter, right? And then what happens??

[Bizkit]

you get to run around in both cities and get random cell phone calls from people

[dougkinzinger]

that's it??

[Bizkit]

if you get 100% you get a shirt...

[stevember]

I can't raise the chaos meter enough any tips? I kill loads of cops.

if you beat the entire game (100%), you also can get 3 body guards. the ai really sucks, but they'll shoot at anything that attacks you.

In the biker mission, right? You need to blow up every and anything. When you get a few stars, the bar increases faster, so don't just kill cops. You might want to find a nice rooftop to shoot from, where the cops can't get you.

A little tip for people who can't beat Hilary in the driver mission. This is the mission in which you have to beat Hilary in a street race. I found this mission nearly impossible so this is what I did:

1) go into the Grand Theft Auto Vice City\data folder and open this file: handling.cfg

2) make a backup of it ofcourse (maybe this should have been point 1)

3) search for this string "SABRETUR"

4) look for these numbers 180.0 32.0 and change it to 50.0 05.0

5) run the game and Hilary is easy to beat.... since you are a lot faster now :) (well no, you're not faster, but Hilary is a lot slower)

6) after the mission save your game and replace handling.cfg with your backup.

This is cheating ofcourse, but the good thing is that the game won't detect this as cheating. So it will not affec your 100% score.

Cheeeet :p

It took me ages, but what I did in the end was this:

In the malibu, shoot a load of customers (it's not a problem, they were badly dressed and couldn't dance anyway :rofl: ) you may also need to shoot a cop in there - just make sure you get a 3-star rating.

When you race hilary, try and keep close to him because the cops throw out stingers (spike-strips) and if hilary gets a puncture, he'll be all over the place. I also got a puncture but I had time to get in another car and still beat him easily.

HTH,

I did the Hilary mission first time because of a bug. I was following close behind him when he went through one of the small bridges and got stuck below it. The 2nd time I tried it the same thing happened but he fell into the water beneath the bridge and died, so i lost the mission.

if you beat the entire game (100%), you also can get 3 body guards. the ai really sucks, but they'll shoot at anything that attacks you.

So there's like....no real ending? Like there was in GTA3? Does the game ever end?

[edgarf28]

What's the last mission??? :huh: :blink: :cry:

[Tobbe]

haha nice one tobbe

It could rotate around... nothing more.

And remember, don't drive too fast. :|

I have found all the hidden packages, finished all unique jumps except for one.

Does anyone know if there is some kind of software that can read the file that I save my game to and then report what I've finished and what I haven't.

The game memorizes if I've finished a jump or not.

I've finished all the main missions. And a couple of the side missions.

edgarf28:

If I told you then I would spoil it, but you will know when it's over.

[dougkinzinger]

someone PM me what the real ending is......

[Ji@nBing]

:( i'm stuck. i can't find any missions to do

[PlagueWielder3k]

Buy buildings and do their missions.

[Ji@nBing]

Buy buildings and do their missions.
