Anybody knows how many people I gotta to drop off in the taxi mission to finish it? I just did 38 and its still going..

Alright this is crazy.. I dont have anything to do either..

Ive bought all 15 buildings and the only things I can think of that I didnt finish are the paramedic, police, pizza boy... missions. Do I get more missions when I finish these?

As far as I know, the taxi is just for making money.

The real taxi missions (for Kauffman's taxi's) are just 3 missions.

Heres a website for locating stuff.... properties especially.

http://www.oddweb.net/gta4/index.asp

Also i've got all the properties and and at 54% complete but the last 2 end missions haven't opened up yet. How do you get them? Yes i did the boatyard race and also the stripjoint spending 600 bucks on the bitch, but what am i missing. Oh and i've done the ice cream also. So total i have 15 assets.... so why arn't the last 2 missions opening up. I wanna see the ending!

me, too, what's up with this?

The special taxi is in the taxi warehouse... has strips on it and ****.

Mind telling me where this is? I cant find it.

100!!! You serious? Thats gonna take days.

I did Phils missions but I didnt get any missions after that.. for some reason I still have the P on the radar but I think its because I can buy weapons there. Is that right? Or do I still have missions somewhere?

did u do Phil's missions? i dont know how to get them,but ..and u might want to do firetruck, police ,ambulance, pizza boy missions.

and when u drop off 100 fares with taxi, u get a Turbo Boost for all the taxis ;)

yeah, i did all those.........this part of the game sucks compared to GTA3...at least it told you where to go next........

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.

beauty! can this be done to increase the handling of the plane for that porno flyer mission as well as increasing the handling of the RC plane when you need to bomb the boats? those are tough!

Hey all. I use GTA: VC as just a bit of a laugh, I love driving around, stealing cars, etc. Not hugely into the missions, and wondered if there were a savegame that would allow me to just cruise.

Please don't tell me I am ruining the game, because different people enjoy different things.

Nik

in the rc plane mission, just fly over to the docks and drive the RC plane into the cubans. that'll kill them if you hit them fairly fast (if you don't hit them hard enough, just hit them again 2 more times and they'll die). Then, it's EASY to bomb the planes when they're all dead!!!

??? That was very easy..

If you want to do the RC plane by yrself just fly low and drop the bombs on the boats (get yr brother/sister/freind to drop the bombs on them so you can concentrate on flying), when u get to the car simply crash into it and youll be done.

I can't find that one last unique jump. I've got 35 out of 36.

Anyone good at those, would you like to find that jump for me?

I'm at 92%

All you have to do is drive around and jump them all again. ;)

When you find it, tell me which one.

In return, you'll get my saved game when I reach to the top. :yes:

My current stats here.

PLEASE help me! Please! :cry:

Im not very good at games, especielly not gta vc :) To be honest im stuck at the voodoo lady with the packages and the Paul mission to save Lance :) any suggestions, tips? Someone has proberly already posted it but Im to lazy to look through all the 37 pages :p

did u do Phil's missions? i dont know how to get them,but ..and u might want to do firetruck, police ,ambulance, pizza boy missions.

and when u drop off 100 fares with taxi, u get a Turbo Boost for all the taxis ;)

yeah, i did all those.........this part of the game sucks compared to GTA3...at least it told you where to go next........

Did you guys actually finish all the asset missions? It's not enough to just buy them, but you have to do all the missions for the 8 or so money-making buildings.

i'll try that but what about the porno one where you fly the plane? tough!

That one is easy. I can fly that damn plane with my eyes closed. Just grab a gamepad (or a joystick... though I prefer a gamepad) and it will be a lot easier. If you don't have one..... well too bad, master the keyboard, though I have to admit, then it is not very easy.

If you can't pull it off, just send me the savegame and I'll do it for you.

    • Beats Studio Pro wireless over-ear ANC headphones drop to their lowest price yet by Fiza Ali Amazon is currently offering the Beats Studio Pro headphones at their all-time low price. The Studio Pro use 40mm active drivers which are designed to improve clarity and reduce distortion compared to previous models, with up to an 80% improvement over the Beats Studio3 Wireless. A built-in digital processor adjusts frequency response to keep the sound balanced rather than overly boosted in any one area. They also include Active Noise Cancelling that adapts to your surroundings to reduce background noise along with a Transparency mode that lets outside sound in when you need awareness of what’s going on around you. Furthermore, the headphones support personalised Spatial Audio with dynamic head tracking as well as Dolby Atmos playback on supported content. Moreover, built-in voice-targeting microphones improve call quality. You can also switch between three sound profiles including Beats Signature for balanced music playback, Entertainment for films and gaming, and Conversation for clearer voice in calls and podcasts. Physically, they are designed to be worn for long periods without feeling heavy or awkward. The ear cushions use UltraPlush engineered leather while metal sliders allow you to adjust the fit. On the connectivity side, the Studio Pro use Class 1 Bluetooth for a stable, long-range wireless connection. There is also a 3.5mm input if you want to plug in directly, including use with in-flight entertainment systems. Controls are located on the headphones and include a "b" button for music and call control, a volume rocker, and a multifunction button used for switching listening modes, EQ settings, power, and pairing. In addition, the headphones offer integration with both Apple and Android devices. On Apple devices, they support one-touch pairing with iCloud-linked devices, hands-free Siri access, Find My tracking based on last connected location, and automatic software updates. On Android devices, they support Google Fast Pair, Audio Switch between compatible devices, and Google Find My Device tracking, with additional features available through the Beats app. When it comes to the battery performance, it is rated at up to 40 hours of listening time with ANC turned off, and up to 24 hours with ANC or Transparency mode enabled. A 10-minute Fast Fuel charge should provide up to 4 hours of playback. Finally, the headphones use a rechargeable lithium-ion battery and charge via USB-C.

    • Hands on with the ProtoArc EM25: Affordable ergonomic mouse that focuses on the right things by Taras Buria ProtoArc is known for making all sorts of office products with a big focus on ergonomics and comfort. Its latest product, the EM25, promises a comfortable-to-use, affordable, and customizable mouse. We took one for a spin; here are our impressions. The ProtoArc EM25 is a $49.99 mouse, but right now, during Prime Day 2026, you can get it for just $37.99. Right off the bat, you can see that the EM25 is inspired by Logitech's MX Master lineup and the legendary MX Master 3/3S. Its shape and proportions are very similar, so for a person with large hands (right-handed person, mind you), the EM25 is very comfortable to use. The mouse fills the palm, and the thumb rests on a small extension, giving your wrist a small tilt to reduce strain. The mouse is made of black plastic without any coating, eliminating long-term wear concerns. However, I can see the main buttons and other areas you touch the most getting polished over time. Despite its size and bulk, the mouse is not too heavy. It weighs about 100 grams, which is significantly less than the MX Master 3S and its successor. It is no lightweight gaming mouse by any means, but it is not excessively heavy like the MX Master 4. The EM25 has a built-in storage for its USB dongle. It is a cleverly made magnetic flap that you open by simply pressing on it. Next to the flap, you will find the on/off switch, the 1,000 Hz sensor, and a DPI button (up to 8,000 DPI). I find the DPI button location a bit odd, and I would prefer it somewhere below the main scroll wheel. Still, given that I never change DPI on my mice, I will let it pass. What is more important is that, unlike MX Master 3/3S/4, the device switch button is located below the left-click button, which allows you to switch devices without lifting and flipping the mouse. For a multi-device setup, this is a perfect solution: the button does not require too much effort to use, it does not get in your way, but it is also easily reachable with your thumb. The main scroll wheel has two modes: ratcheted and free-flow. You can only change between them with a bright orange button (I like this little touch of color), which is sprung and requires some effort to press. The wheel is dead-silent in free-flow mode, but ratched is quite loud and stiff, perhaps even too much to my liking. I can hardly call it deal-breaking, but it will certainly take some time to get used to. The side scroll wheel, it is notched, silent, and pleasant to use. Next to it, you can find a piece of glossed plastic with connection indicators: Dongle, Bluetooth 1, Bluetooth 2, and the low battery indicator. By the way, the built-in battery is rechargeable via a USB Type-C cable, which is included. It is sleeved and has an orange velcro strap to keep it tidy. After using the EM25 for a few weeks, I can say that its main buttons are my absolute favorite. They have very pronounced clicks, which feel great with just the right amount of force required to register a press. I would say they feel like something in between regular mouse clicks and silent ones. You can hear and feel the springy switch, but it is not sharp or loud to the point of annoying you. As for back/forward and device switch buttons, they are very clicky and quite noisy. Unfortunately, there are no extra buttons that you can map to specific things like in the MX Master lineup. Besides great primary clicks, another thing I like about the EM25 is its 1,000 Hz sensor. In the world, where Logitech still uses 125 Hz sensors in $100+ mice, seeing a much faster sensor in a mouse that costs three times less is very refreshing. Also, all the settings and customization you make are stored on-device, and you do not need to install any software. Just open the web-based app and change all that you need. Speaking of customization, you can remap what buttons do, adjust the DPI, and the sensor speed. Sadly, gestures are not supported, but you can still map pretty much anything to each button, including shortcuts, media buttons, and more. I also recommend using software like XMouseControl, as it will let you remap the side scroll wheel. At the end of the day, the ProtoArc EM25 is a great mouse. Clearly inspired by the MX Master lineup, it takes the best of it and complements it with a much more wallet-friendly price tag, significantly better sensor, on-device memory, a built-in storage for the dongle, and more (it fixes everything that I complained about the MX Master 4 recently). And for only $37.99 during Prime Day, the EM25 is an easy recommendation. Buy ProtoArc EM25 mouse - $37.99 | 24% off with Prime As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.
