Glenster's Glimpse into San Andreas

 I.7  Controls


  F or Enter (or my remapped Sprint: Left Shift) lets you skip a cutscene.


  Esc  Pause the game and go to the menu.  To have a longer look at onscreen in-

structions or dialogue, press Esc and go to Brief.  You can go back through ear-

lier instructions and dialogue by pressing Up and go forward through them with

Down.


  Prt Scr  See X.15 for how to use Prt Scr, etc., to make screenshots.


  If you leave the controls alone, the HUD will disappear and the "camera" will

act like a hand held camera operator is getting bored from inactivity and will

zoom in on and back from this and that activity.


  F1   Instant Replay  An instant replay lasts 20 sec. to one min.--the fewer

peds and vehicles, the longer the replay.

  http://www.grandtheftwiki.com/Replay

  F2   Save replay (press at the end of the replay)

  F3   Play back last saved replay.  Only one replay can be saved at a time un-

less you want to rename the My Documents\GTA San Andreas User Files\replay.rep

file so it isn't overwritten.  If you want to save videos of the game, you might

want to download FRAPS.

  I'd like it if someone made a mod to give "San Andreas" the "Vice City"-type

instant replay with slow motion for Unique Jumps and a variety of "camera" an-

gles.


  Some things are different in GTA instant replays.  In "San Andreas" instant

replays, the red smoke doesn't appear behind the Stuntplane, the thrusters point

down on the Hydra even in replays of scenes in which they were pointed back, a

black thing--a landing wheel?--appears below the back end of, at least, some of

the planes, the Jet Pack doesn't appear, train engines face backward, etc.


  One of the new differences that's the most unusual, and which I haven't read

any explanation for, is that instead of certain action scene co-stars such as

Big Smoke, Kent Paul, or Maccer appearing, another guy does.  It gets more unu-

sual when he replaces both Kent and Maccer at the same time or replaces Catali-

na as he does in the scene at the link below:

  Spaceeinstein sent me this "Explanation: Rockstar became lazy.  The replay

didn't load the special actor models.  That ped in the picture is the default

ped for the special actor model to replace.  Special actor models aren't con-

sidered as peds in the game so it has to replace an existing ped like the one in

the picture."  


********


  A couple of instant replays that should have been (and other odd moments):


  - I had C.J. get a six star wanted level and land his Jetpack on the Ferris

wheel at Santa Maria Beach.  A Police Maverick landed beside him, and C.J.

jacked it!  Those things take off too slow for him to have gotten away, and

something about the getting busted cinematic screwed up the instant replay so it

didn't register.  (If it ever comes up for you, have him shoot the corrupt offi-

cers 1st.)


  - C.J. was driving a motorcycle through the oil fields toward Las Venturas,

hit something, the bike kept rolling while C.J. ran to get it, and he got back

on and kept riding like something out of a wild west show or a stunt movie air

grab.  I must have hit the wrong button, though, because the instant replay just

showed the last few seconds of him standing somewhere afterwards.


  - I'll add something to those two because this is the closest category to put

it in, other than the one for ghost world.  C.J., in an SUV, was drive-bying the

attackers on motorcycles in the 2nd half of "Lure," and he ran out of ammo.  So

I had him try to run into them, and he knocked a couple off their bike.  One got

back on the back of the seat of the bike, and C.J. ran the other one down.  But

the bike with the person on the back still followed him around.  It would run

into him now and then--plomp--but that's about it.  If C.J. stopped, it stopped.

It was more like a frisky dog than an attacker.


  Hitokri Battusai wrote to me he had a similar experience with what he called

Ghost Cops during a gang fight, too: the police car driver was killed but the

car kept following C.J.'s car.


  - Using Molotovs for "The End of the Line" gave me a couple of glitches.  One

gangster kept running into the corner of an alcove till he went through it, like

Claude in the "III" gimmick to get a Mafia Sentinel.  Another survived the

fire--I guess running into the wall protected him a bit--and said, "You can't do

that to me, man," and resumed firing till he got a moment of another Molotov!

  I.7.a  Foot Controls


********


  Note: I remap Spacebar and Left Shift so each does the job of the other--Jump

is Spacebar and Run or Sprint is Left Shift--so it's more like "Vice City."


********


  W                                 Forward

  S                                  Backwards

  Mouse Steering or A   Left

  Mouse Steering or D   Right


  You can turn the "camera" with the mouse so to face C.J., then press S to keep

him going in the same direction in the scenery yet now towards you and the cam-

era; a similar thing can be done with A and D.


  W,S,A, and D can also be used for the dance game, and A and D can be used to

      go through the food selection at a restaurant.


  Get a rhythm going and tap W,S,,A, or D on the beat, sometimes in the same di-

rection for pairs of beats, to give C.J. a little dance move paradiddle you can

throw in now and then, like when C.J. sings, for some snazz.


  Mouse   Look anywhere, though you need to move C.J. to look directly up or

                     down.  When standing still, C.J. doesn't swivel as you move the

                     mouse as Tommy Vercetti or Claude Speed did.  You get a greater va-

                     riety of views of him that way, but it makes aiming him busier.

                     While he faces in one direction, you can look in another with the

                     Mouse; if you want to face him in the new direction, press W,S,A, or

                     D as needed.  I usually press W, which makes him go in the direction

                     the Mouse is pointed, to turn him.


  F or Enter (Return)     Enter or get on a vehicle, have C.J. buy a soft drink or

                                      snack, end a transaction at a restaurant or barber shop,

                                      etc., end a phone call, spend $100 for, or quit watching,

                                      a lap dance, open the freezer at the Abattoir, detach a

                                      deployed Parachute, and let go of something he's hanging

                                      from


  The camera swirl after C.J. leaves a vehicle can be disorienting for a moment.

When that happens, you may speed things up by pressing W to turn him in the di-

rection you want him to go, then W again to continue.


  If two choices are equally near when you press F, C.J. goes in the direction

of the vehicle or vending machine he's pointed toward.  Otherwise, he'll turn

and go to the closer one.


********



  Left Shift   Sprint (I remap it from Spacebar) when added to W.  The sprint 

                         lasts longer as C.J. gets stronger, as does the faster sprint

                         created by pressing it quickly and repeatedly.  Complete the

                         Burglary mission for the infinite sprint.  Left Shift is also

                         used to buy food at a restaurant, preview/buy a haircut, etc.


  Spacebar     Jump, grab something to climb, or climb something (I remap it

                          from Left Shift).


********



  Left Alt    Walk  Add Left Alt to W,S,A, or D to make C.J. walk.  I mainly use

                        this because I think it looks funny to have C.J. stop scrambling

                        and act normal till he's just past a police officer.  If you add

                        Left Alt while C.J. moves in a crouch, he moves slower, too.

                        If you equip C.J. with a one of the rifles or automatic rifles,

                        he can walk faster, so you might use that when C.J.'s in a big

                        house during the Burglary mission.


  Tab or \    View player Respect, Stamina, Muscle, Fat, and Sex Appeal Stats,

                       what day it is, and the Weapon Skill C.J. has for an upgradable

                       weapon if he's equipped with one, in a menu in the lower left

                       corner of the screen.  You can also use it to have C.J. answer a

                       cell phone, give a gift to or kiss a girlfriend (awwwr!), buy

                       property, and equip the weapon of the pickup C.J. is standing in to

                       replace the weapon currently in that slot.


  C             Crouch  Use W,S,A, and D to have C.J. move while crouching, and

                      tap one of them repeatedly, or add Left Alt, to have C.J. do it

                      slowly.  It can help C.J. sneak up on enemies.  End a crouch

                      with Spacebar, Left Shift, F, Enter, or the LMB.  C.J. can't

                      crouch with a Camera, Fire Extinguisher, Chainsaw, thrown weap-

                      on (Molotov, etc.,), or heavy weapon (Minigun, Flamethrower, or

                      either rocket launcher).


  C and hold the RMB   C.J. crouches and can target someone (see "RMB or Caps

                                          Lock" below).  Crouching can help C.J. fire a gun with

                                          more accuracy and make him harder to hit.  If you press

                                          A or D, he rolls left or right and takes aim again.


  LMB         Fire, punch, hit with a melee weapon, throw, spray paint, deploy a

                       Parachute while C.J. is falling, change the "camera" view of a

                       lap dance, and take a snap shot.  As in "Vice City," you can

                       hold the LMB down to keep a Chainsaw revved up and pointed for-

                       ward, then move with W,S,A, or D to create fast Chainsaw at-

                       tacks.  Unlike Tommy, C.J. can't jump while he's equipped with

                       it, though.


  RMB or Caps Lock      Target someone or bring up the scope of a Sniper Rifle,

                                           Rocket Launcher, or Heat Seeking Rocket Launcher so it can

                                           be aimed and fired.  In the case of a Heat-Seeking Rocket

                                           Launcher, it also makes a green reticle appear over the

                                           target, and the green turns to red as the system locks on-

                                           to the target.


                                         To target someone, aim C.J. or his weapon at them and

                                      press RMB or Caps Lock.  It makes an arrow point down at

                                      their head.  The color of the arrow indicates their

                                      health.  It turns from green to red to black and disap-

                                      pears as they weaken and die.  If C.J. is equipped with a

                                      Knife and you target someone from behind with the RMB,

                                      C.J. prepares for a stealth kill he'll execute if you

                                      press the LMB.  It also creates the potential for C.J. to

                                      see if they can be recruited into his gang (see below).


  RMB or Caps Lock,

    and G or H               Press the RMB to target one of his gang members (see

                                         above) and press G, and if C.J. has enough Respect,

                                         they'll follow him as a gang member (into a vehicle,

                                         swimming, sometimes over walls, etc.) and attack oppos-

                                         ing gang members and criminals--they may also attack law

                                         enforcers who pursue or attack C.J..    With 80% Respect,

                                         C.J. can recruit seven gang members.


                                   Press G to draw them to C.J. if they run away, and press H

                                       to have them wait in place (I remember the keys by

                                       thinking of "G" for "Gang" and "H" for "Hang back").

                                       They may ignore the last command if one of those they

                                       attack comes by, and C.J. doesn't have to go far for

                                       them to ignore a command to stay in place and run toward

                                       him, though.  If you want a recruit to leave the group,

                                       such as when their health gets low, make the arrow ap-

                                       pear over them and press H.  To disband the whole group,

                                       hold H or have C.J. go far away from them.


  RMB and LMB             To have C.J.'s recruits attack someone, target the victim

                                            with the RMB then press the LMB.



  E or Mouse Wheel Down   Next weapon/Target

  Q or Mouse Wheel Up        Previous Weapon/Target


  X or Mouse Wheel Up        Zoom In

  Z or Mouse Wheel Down   Zoom Out


  Y  Conversation "Yes"

  N  Conversation "No"  Besides using these two to have C.J. respond to someone

                                            in a mission or to a hooker or drug dealer, it can let

                                            him respond to some of the things the pedestrians say.


  V              View: you can pick one of several distances for a 3rd person

                       view that mainly follows C.J. from behind.


  NP1 or MMB   Look Behind


********


  I.7.aa  Climbing trees


  C.J. can walk up sloped trees, too, like Tommy Vercetti could in "Vice City."

One tall one is at the N side of the swamp in Back O Beyond.

  http://img234.imageshack.us/img234/2523/00gta1screen1297qu.jpg


  He can jump from the ground into the kind of trees on square boxes on the

sidewalks in Ocean Flats, too, if you have him jump from beyond a corner of the

base at the highest of the bottom limbs.  If he jumps on a vehicle 1st, about a

vehicle hood distance from the next to the lowest limb with his head in or by

the leaves, sometimes he climbs up into the same trees.


  He can jump up and climb the sort of trees with white trunks that you can find

by one with a thick gray trunk on a grass strip behind a white picket fence S of

the lot that's on the S side of the Fleischberg plant that's SW of downtown

Blueberry.


  He can climb the kind, with pale marbled beige bark and gray limbs, you find

an example of across the street and NE of the hospital in Fort Carson.


  He can climb onto the trees that look like little squat palm trees, and onto

the cactus (that has the basic shape of Saguaro cactus except with a smooth

skin), in the desert.


  On the W side of the park that has a statue of a baseball player, on the block

of "ANC" of "FINANCIAL" in San Fierro, C.J. can jump from a ledge and get into a

tall tree with white bark.


********


  I.7.aaa  Taking Photographs


  Raise the viewfinder of a Camera with the RMB, Zoom in and out with X and Z or

the Mouse Wheel, and snap the photo with the LMB.


  Press the RMB to aim the Camera viewfinder at a GSF gang member recruited to

follow C.J., or a girlfriend, and they'll pose for a picture.


  With the Camera equipped, press Tab around a GSF gang member recruited to fol-

low C.J. to have them take the Camera.  Pose C.J. with W,S,A,D,C, and/or Space-

bar, then either press Tab again for them to take C.J.'s picture, or F or Enter

to have them return the Camera.


  You can save the pictures taken with it in your GTA San Andreas User Files in

My Documents if you turn the option for Store Gallery Photos on in the menu.


&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&



  I.7.b  Initial fight moves Controls


  Hold the RMB and press the LMB          Advances with left and right jabs


  Hold the RMB and press F                      Advances with Right jabs

                                                                        and right kicks


  Hold the RMB and W

       and press the LMB                             Advances at a trot with right jabs


********


  Note: I remap Left Shift and Spacebar for Foot Controls so each does the job

of the other.


********


  Hold the RMB, W, and Left Shift,

    and press the LMB                               Runs with right jabs


  Hold the RMB and press Spacebar        Blocks with both arms; this can also

                                                                     be done while C.J. trots or runs


  See the several gym sections for moves C.J. learns later.  He needs to beat

all three trainers and learn their fight moves for 100% completion of the game.


  Thanks to a Gamefaqs post by metalacid123 for pointing out that C.J. uses the

fight moves used by the last instructor he beat, so you could send him to an

earlier trainer if you like their style better, etc.


  The fight moves can be supplemented with a melee weapon.  Reader Chen Dong

shows this to good effect with C.J. armed with a Knife for "Gray Imports" and

"Los Sepulcros."  It's a good combination of C.J. being able to run fast for a

chase, knock the target down, and use a strong weapon on them.



  I.7.bb  Having C.J. punch his neighbors to get to know them


  A couple of pedestrians you might see in Fort Carson:


  The cowboy in black with an eyepatch: "Green-blooded abomination!" "Can't let

them take me again," "He's one of them!" "For Earth, man!" "You can't steal my

mind," "You're not probin' me again," and "I know things."


  A cowboy with sunglasses, a light beard, and a blue checkered shirt over a

blue jersey: "You won't abduct me--no, you won't."


&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&



  I.7.c  Swimming Controls


  No key                Tread water; if underwater, slowly rise to the surface

  W                        Swim forward with a breast stroke

  Mouse Steering   Turn


********


  Note: I remap Left Shift and Spacebar for Foot Controls so each does the

job of the other.


  Left Shift             Swim forward fast with a crawl;

                                    press it quickly and repeatedly to have C.J. swim faster


  Spacebar              Jump till the water is about knee high; climb out of water


********


  W then add LMB               Dive underwater


  W then add LMB (dive),

  then hold Left Shift            Swim underwater


  Once he's underwater, you just need Left Shift, with Mouse Steering, to have

him keep swimming there.  Press Left Shift quickly and repeatedly to have C.J.

swim faster.


  Mind the breath meter, and notice that most of the marine life swims away if

C.J. gets close to them--the way they react to people in real life.


  (You might try the Joypad option, which you can't use mouse steering for, to

see what swimming looks like with it.  When C.J. is underwater, hold down Left

Shift and alternate between W and S, and C.J. goes forward by waving up and down

like a fish.  Turning strokes, with A or D, look more active, too.)



  Walking, driving, and flying underwater


  Mxyzptlk, at GTA Forums, gave an exception for the swimming controls--a glitch

that lets C.J. walk, drive, etc., underwater.


  One of the places you can send C.J. to create the glitch is N of the curve in

the highway between Hanky Pank Point and the pretzel-shaped intersection to the

W of it.  Have him dive at the S side of the floor of San Andreas Sound and swim

at the place where the floor meets the cliff.  His breath bar will rise then

disappear, he'll stand on his feet, and C.J. will be able to explore the under-

water area like he can on dry land.

  http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/9420/00gta1screen5258ni.jpg


  You can use a code to spawn a vehicle or have C.J. push one into the water
ahead of time.  (If C.J. walks onto non-solid ground, like at the edge of the
map, he'll fall then appear on nearby dry land.)
  http://www.gtaforums.com/index.php?showtopic=222794


  Thanks to Spaceeinstein for sending me a link to his video that shows how to
have C.J. drive underwater:
  http://youtube.com/watch?v=3iRt0Glfl30


  If you have C.J. push the vehicle to the same spot that lets C.J. walk under-

water, it will show the properties it does on land, too, so C.J. can drive it.


  Thanks to Demarest for explaining it as matter of finding a way to put C.J.

underwater without the game considering him as having crossed through the sur-

face of the water--the game won't treat him as if he's underwater and he can

walk along the bottom.


   Thanks to GTA_Phreak for recommending that you look for the difference in the

lighting (lighter) waviness (none) and sound (no gurgling or whatever that is)

to find the spot, also indicated by the fact that it's the only underwater sur-

face that C.J. can create fires on, and if it's hard to put the vehicle in it,

you can sometimes get the same effect by having C.J. enter the vehicle.


  He adds several more places where you can use the glitch:


  - at the coast S of the 1st "O" of "PANOPTICON," a tiny bit W of due S of the

SW corner of the big brown square,


  - in the middle of a NW to SE section of coast that's S of the W edge of the

"O" of "FLINT COUNTY," and


  - at the SE coast of Flint County W of the "S" of the compass shown on the

ocean on the paper map.  Using the map and radar in the game, going S to N, you

can see the coast has a straight line then a curved one--the spot is most of the

way N along the curve.


  Orion_SR found another spot for the gimmick at the base of a gray corner of

the coast that's N of the T intersection that's N of the 1st "A" of "EASTER BAY

CHEMICALS."


  KingBulleT 8747's method can be used for C.J., if not his vehicle, in loca-

tions where the shore is directly by water which is over C.J.'s head if he

stands in it, such as by the edge of a dock:


  Have C.J. park parallel to the water with enough space between the vehicle and

the water for C.J. to stand in with a few feet to spare.  Have him punch someone

to make them fight then have C.J. get in the vehicle and get jacked.  When C.J.

  Swimming mania hits San Andreas


  The general understanding is that C.J. is the only one in the game who can

swim; an exception to that is that Ryder can swim in "Pier 69."

  http://img121.imageshack.us/img121/1961/00gta1swimming93vj.jpg


  Shane Wong, a reader, wrote to me that Catalina can swim, too, if C.J. drives

into the water with her while he has his choice of places to rob and she follows

him.  That's the kind of thing that's interesting to me--it shows the depth of

the world Rockstar has created for us to have fun with.  So I asked Shane to let

me know what any other testing about that turned up.  It turns out all kinds of

people can swim in "San Andreas."


  If C.J. leads a GSF gang member into water, they can swim.


  If C.J. drives the car Sweet must use (as in "Los Sepulcros") into the water,

Sweet will get out and drown.  But if C.J. drives a car that's optional for

Sweet (as in "Sweet's Girl") into the water, Sweet (and the girlfriend) will get

out and swim after C.J..


  Reader Anurag Sinha confirms Catalina's swimming ability and adds that Mike

Toreno and T-Bone can swim in the mission "Mike Toreno."


  Any law enforcer I've seen follow C.J. if he gets a wanted rating drowns if

they get into water, but since they are assigned vehicles, I guess they fit the

rest of the idea.


  It sounds to me like anyone that follows C.J., including people codes cause to

follow him, can swim if C.J. leads them into water, including ones who get out

of vehicles that are optional for missions.  They drown if they get out of a ve-

hicle they must use for a mission.


  Thanks to Shane Wong for a real good find!

  I.7.d  Vehicle Controls


  Note: I remap Horn from Caps Lock or H to Left Shift to be like my setup for

"Vice City."



  I.7.e  Four-Wheel vehicle Controls


  Note for all non-flying vehicles:

  turn on STEER WITH MOUSE in the OPTIONS menu.



  W                Accelerate

  S                 Reverse; activates rear lights


  Mouse Steering or A         Left

  Mouse Steering or D         Right


  Don't press the keys for acceleration and turning at the same time if you want

your vehicle to have better grip during turns.


  A and D can also be used to correct the tipping of a vehicle, which can be

      easier if you do it while accelerating.


  Spacebar    Brake; four wheel steering for a Monster truck or Rhino


  In some cases, such as in front of the barber shop in "Ryder," II.7, having

C.J. drive into a red shaft of light during a mission will stop his vehicle,

too.


  Q                  Look or aim left

  E                  Look or aim right

  Q and E

      or MMB   Look behind

  LMB            Fire

  RMB            Look all around using the mouse; auto-aim for Rhino cannon

  F or Enter     Exit a vehicle (if the vehicle is moving slowly, one press stops

                            the vehicle and another press makes C.J. exit)


********


  Left Shift (I remap it from Caps Lock or H)   Horn; Mr. Whoopee jingle; Taxi or

                     Cabbie Boost Jump after delivering 50 fares; siren and flashing

                     lights for emergency and law enforcement vehicles.


********


  NP+

       or 2  Sub-mission


  Y         Trip Skip: in some missions that start with a long driving section,

                  if C.J. fails the mission and you have him go back to the shaft of

                  light to start the mission again, you'll get a prompt asking if

                  you want to use the Trip Skip to skip past the initial section to

                  get to the rest of the mission--if you do, press Y.


                  Some missions that let you skip initial driving section are, at

                  least, "OG Loc," "Badlands," "Lure," and "Interdiction."  ("End of

                  the Line" does something like that automatically for both the

                  timed section of getting out of Big Smoke's place and the Fire-

                  truck chase.)


 V            Change "Camera" View;

                     while using Cinematic View--the variety of views--

                     you can select from among the views it has with NP4

  Up         "Camera" positioned higher (good for seeing ahead near hilltops)

  Down     "Camera" positioned lower (good for reading C.J.'s license plate)

  NP4       The scene revolves clockwise

  NP6       The scene revolves counter-clockwise


  F5                           User Track Skip--skip a song on the User Track radio station

  Mouse Wheel Up

       or 4                   Next Radio Station

  Mouse Wheel Down

       or R                   Previous Radio Station


  Left Ctrl

      or NP0      Nitro Boost--available for certain vehicles at mod shops

                                             and for Taxis and Cabbies after delivering 50 fares


  Tow Truck hook, Fork Lift fork, Dozer scoop, Dumper bed, Tractor hitch, and

Packer ramp:


  NP2    Raise

  NP8    Lower


  The Tractor can pull a Plow behind it.  (I've also used it to tow a sedan.)


  Back a Linerunner, Tanker, or Roadtrain to one of several shapes of box trail-

er, or to an oil tank trailer, or a Baggage to a Baggage trailer or tall mobile

set of steps, to hitch it.  To unhitch it, jackknife the combo (which may throw

the hitched part a distance away, for some reason) or run the front of the back

part into something.  A Baggage trailer may be hitched to another Baggage trail-

er or to a tall set of mobile steps.


  The Tug has a hitch on the back as a Baggage vehicle does, but I've yet to

find anything that hitches to it.


  A Utility Van can also be hitched to a little "STREET CLEAN" trailer (see

"Utility Van" under "Land vehicles"--see I.8.a) the same way, but I'm not

sure if that trailer is in the unmodified game.  So far I've only seen it by

using the GTA SA Control Center (X.13.c) which calls it a "Utility Trailer. 

 

  The Forklift, Dozer, and Combine Harvester are steered by turning the rear

wheels, which makes the vehicle steer in the opposite direction than the one

you're used to.  It may be easier to get used to steering one if you use the

keyboard and not the mouse.  But if you want to make one steer with the front

wheels, see X.10.b under "...miscellaneous jazz" for how to change column ag in

the data\handling.cfg file with Ben "Cerbera" Millard's CFG Studio 2.


  Hydraulics:


  Left Shift    Raise or lower the body;

                      the body holds this mode after the key is pressed


  NP+            Raise or lower the body;

                      the body holds this mode while the key is pressed


  NP4           Raises the left side while pressed when the body is lowered, and

                         lowers the left side while pressed when the body is raised

  NP6           Raises the right side while pressed when the body is lowered, and

                         lowers the right side while pressed when the body is raised

  NP2           Raises the back end while pressed when the body is lowered, and

                         lowers the back end while pressed when the body is raised

  NP8           Raises the front end while pressed when the body is lowered, and

                         lowers the front end while pressed when the body is raised


  You can combine one front or back number pad key with one right or left side

number pad key to raise or lower a corner of the vehicle.


  If Left Shift is pressed, and so the mode is changed from raised to lowered or

lowered to raised, while one or two number pad keys are pressed, the effect of

the number pad keys pressed changes accordingly: a lowered front in raised mode

changes to a raised front end in lowered mode, etc.


  If NP+ is pressed while one or two number pad keys are pressed, it

  raises the lowered part while pressed when the body is in lowered mode, and

     lowers the raised part while pressed when the body is in raised mode.

  If C.J.'s motorcycle is reversing and you think he may fall off the 'cycle,

you can sometimes have him avoid a wreck by having his motorcycle turn instead.


  The HESOYAM code, besides giving C.J. $250,000 and maximum Armor and Health,

has the effect of the Health code of the last two GTA's and repairs any vehicle

  The OUIQDMW code, besides giving C.J. the ability to aim in any direction

while using a land vehicle, makes it easy for him to do airgrabs and less likely

to fall off of his motorcycle.

  You can have C.J. drive a motorcycle or bicycle into the inverted yellow cone

on the NE side of the oval building S of "LOS" of "DOWNTOWN LOS SANTOS" to have

C.J. and his vehicle appear on the roof (where there's a Parachute).  It makes a

good jump spot, and C.J., and any GSF gang member he takes on the motorcycle,

won't get hurt if you can have him land while staying on the vehicle. 


 


  All the motorcycles and bicycles, like the "Vice City" Sanchez, make it easy

to hold the wheelie position (hold down the Up key) except:


  - the Wayfarer (the back fender won't let it),


  - the Mountain Bike can do it but you need to pump the Up key and low acceler-

ation a while before you can get the bike to hold the wheelie, and


  - the Sanchez, ironically, is too lousy at it to bother.  If you pump the Up

key and low acceleration, you can get it to do it a bit.



  Wallride


  According to Fugitive at the GTA Place Forums, to do a wallride:


  - wheelie before the wall (unless there's already a slope up to it at the base

of it), and


  - hit the wall and press and hold right (if the wall is to the right) or left

(if the wall is on the left).


  (For SA, he also recommends you hold Lean Forward--NP9.)

  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JNzBX3fy_00


  The drainage ditches, including one E of C.J.'s house, can be used for an easy

way to get used to doing wallrides.



  Bump


  Fugitive has the motorcycle wheelie so the front wheel hits the top of the

ledge 1st.  For small ledges, wheelie just before the ledge; for higher ledges,

wheelie higher from farther back from the ledge and press Lean Forward (NP9)

upon impact.  For a curb bump. wheelie at about 80 degrees so the back of the

motorcycle hits the curb.


  For a double bump, wheelie at least 45 degrees to hit the sidewalk with the

back of the motorcycle at the time of the 1st bump.

  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w7p4pCs49qo



  The Wheelie method for a faster bicycle


  According to Fugitive at the GTA Place Forums, if C.J. makes a bicycle wheelie

to about a 45 degree angle as he accelerates, it gives him a higher top speed.

A wheelie closer to 90 degrees can let C.J. go even faster, but if it's too high

it will slow him down

  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7UN01elJmR4


  I'll add that you should release Up once C.J. has a wheelie.



  Airgrab


  Fugitive has advice for a few different kinds of airgrabs.

  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u5RNDT-_qb4


  Ground Grab


  Have C.J.'s motorcycle get airborne (by going over the crest of a hill, doing

a jump, etc.), wheelie/lean back so the back of the motorcycle hits the ground,

at which time you have C.J. bail, and press F/Enter quickly and repeatedly.


  Fall Grab


  Have C.J. push a motorcycle off the edge of a high place like the roof of a

building.  Press F/Enter quickly and repeatedly as it starts to fall.


  Ground Grab to Fall Grab


  Combine the two methods given above.  Have C.J. drive a motorcycle toward the

edge of a roof, wheelie so the back of the motorcycle hits the roof and bail as

it hits, and press F/Enter to have C.J. do the grab as the bike goes off the

edge.



  The San Andreas Superjump


  Spuds725, at the message board below, gave a good explanation of how to do the

San Andreas Superjump that 1gamer26 discovered and shared on the Gamefaqs web

site message board.

  http://www.gtplanet.net/forum/threads/vc-and-sa-superjumps-instructions-pics-discussion.40233/


  You have C.J. drive the motorcycle along the front of the right wing of the

Cropduster or Hydra toward the fuselage and try to drive under the engine or

where the wing meets the body.  He's teleported somewhere else, sometimes with a

lot of rotations.  So far, on PC, I've only managed to make the plane hover in

mid-air in a wheelie position.


  The "Vice City" morphing gimmick, which keeps Tommy on a motorcycle, isn't

used in "San Andreas," and certain PS2 codes that have the effect of keeping

C.J. on his motorcycle don't do that for the PC version.


  Spuds says to use the PS2 "full weapon aiming while driving" code--on PC,

that's "OUIQDMW"--to have C.J. stay on the bike and get big Stats.  I can reaf-

firm that one.


  In a GTA Forums post, gtamike123 says to have C.J. stand by the motorcycle,

put in the code that makes vehicles blow up when C.J.'s vehicle bumps them, have

him get on the motorcycle, and put the code in again to disable it.


  Bryceroni69  reports that Mxyzptlk's idea--to have C.J. get on a motorcycle

then enter the Jetpack code--which works for PS2 to keep C.J. on his motorcycle,

works for some collisions for PC.

  http://gtaforums.com/topic/223369-never-fall-off-your-bike-ps2/



  Monster Superjump


  Have C.J. drive a Monster to an intersection where vehicles are stopped and

drive it onto the engine hood of a vehicle that's stopped.  Have C.J. exit to

stop the truck in that position then try to enter the other vehicle.


  Various things can happen.  Before C.J. can enter the other vehicle, it may

become imbedded grill downward in the street--sometimes in a larger, flatter

condition.  It may disappear or spin off somewhere nearby.  When the driver

doesn't try to drive away and stays in the vehicle while C.J. takes it from

them, it may take C.J. spinning for a super jump.  (If so, the vehicle may ex-

plode before landing.)


  Lordjonash made a video of it called "Gta San Andreas - Insane Monster Truck

Glitch."

  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=un6DKSsv5XU



  The BMX Stoppie glitch


  The BMX can be used for a long stoppie time, although it's more of a glitch

than a long stoppie.  To do it, have C.J. do a stoppie with the BMX and lean so

far forward that the BMX becomes stuck in one spot, which you maintain by hold-

ing Up/Lean Forward.


 


   Quad front flips by EVOLUTIONGSR8


  When C.J. is going fairly fast on a Quad, have him stand and lean forward, Up,

while holding down Brake, Spacebar, and Reverse, S--in other words, do what you

do to have him do a Stoppie on a motorcycle--and he'll do a front flip.  You can

have him do it down Mount Chiliad for a lot of flips (then fire an SMG like

Samus Aran).

   http://gtaforums.com/topic/189294-new-glitch-for-all-you/
   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samus_Aran


 


  The Two Wheeler gimmick


  A "Vice City" gimmick I learned from Chris of the GTA Place web site...

  http://www.thegtaplace.com/vicecity/glitches/


  works in "San Andreas," too.  It lets you use a helicopter to get a big Two
Wheeler score.  To do it, get C.J. into a Maverick or such and give W a tap to
get the helicopter off the ground.  Press S and either A or D to press one land-
ing rail to the ground.  When you've got as long a time for it as you want, have
C.J. exit the helicopter and enter a land vehicle.  The Two Wheeler score will
appear on the screen.  (The score has a glitch of giving you a longer time per-
iod than you used for the stunt.)

  Quadruple Insane Jumps


  PLPynton at GTA Forums says that Insane Jumps are based on jumps that are one

to three of these four things:


  -more than 40 meters long

  -more than 4 meters high

  -2 flips or more

  -more than 360 degree of rotation z (around a vertical axis)


  He says you can get the game to recognize Quadruple Insane Jumps by changing

the data\main.scm file.  You find the heading:


  :HJ_238


  The 2nd line there is:


  0020: $1304 > 4.0 ;; floating-point values


  Change it to:


  0018: $1292 > 4 ;; integer values


  You can use one of Demarest's SA Code Tools (see X.13.n), "Darkpact," to

change the data\main.scm file so you won't have to create a new save game file

for it.


&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&



  I.7.g  Note for all the flying vehicles


  You can turn on FLY WITH MOUSE in the OPTIONS menu (I usually don't).


  You might want to remember where the airborne bribes are.


  When C.J. uses one of the planes, jets, helicopters, or the Parachute, an al-

timeter appears to the left of the radar.


  As in "Vice City," the horizontal traffic light posts aren't solid--the verti-

cal ones are.  Candy Suxxx' lifted leg and the big chicken head aren't solid,

either.


  A flying vehicle can take some damage and keep flying, although the flying

ability may be impaired and it may smoke.  A Hydra can get hit by a missile,

show some flames for a bit, then continue that way.


  When C.J. is flying with a wanted rating, have him fly low to avoid attracting

Police Mavericks that fire bullets (three or more stars) and Hydras that fire

heat-seeking missiles (four or more stars).  It can let you practice for

"N.O.E.," too--keep flying low and the Hydras will lose C.J. (and thanks to

spaceeinstein for reminding me).


 


  Where the three airline entrances are


  - Los Santos International Airport: east of the terminal building that looks

like the Theme Building (similar to the one in "III") is a rectangle of pairs of

roads paired with one over another.  The airline entrance is north of "LOS" by

the north side of the upper street of the pair that are the northern east to

west pair.

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theme_Building


  - Easter Bay Airport: it's another case of roads paired with one over another.

The entrance is by the northeast section of the inner part of the upper circular

road south of "ER."


  - Las Venturas Airport: the entrance is just south of the middle of the east

side of the basically "X"-shaped terminal building--just southwest of the west

tip of the "V" of the big "LAS VENTURAS" letters.


  C.J. can pay a Juank airline $500 to get a ride on an AT-400 from one airport

to another.  Each airline office is open from the start of the game but only

makes rides available to territories that are legally available, so rides are

available when C.J. makes at least two territories legally available.  An air-

line ride gets rid of any number of wanted stars, too.  Thanks to Orion_SR for

telling me that when the Badlands become legally available C.J. can get an air-

line ride from Las Venturas, which clears the wanted rating he got from going

there, to Los Santos.

  Don't turn off the frame limiter when you have C.J. fly the Skimmer or it

won't be able to take off from the water.


  Thanks to the tip by at Gamefaqs by Riamu for the tip that Shamals and

AT-400's have auto-pilot.  (I'll add the Hydra and Andromada to the list--in

other words, all the jets have it.)  Once you give one of those jets enough al-

titude, you can let go of the controls and it will fly, a bit slower and at the

same altitude, in the same direction.


  Banking turns cause a drop in altitude which you can compensate for with ac-

celeration and by turning the vehicle up (the Down key).  Rudder turns don't

cause that problem but don't allow as sharp a turn.


  Thanks to Orion_SR for the tip that the AT-400 doesn't get attacked by Hydras

during a high wanted rating.


  People who aren't used to the PC controls for planes, and complain that the

controls make planes hard to fly, might want to see this stunt video, "Wichita,"

by Ghostchild:

  I have his word that he did it on PC with a keyboard and mouse setup and not a

gamepad or joystick.  (If you saw his motorcycle stunt videos for "Vice City,"

you shouldn't be too surprised.)

  According to Rockstar North lead level designer Craig Filshie, early 2005:


      "Planes, like the rest of San Andreas, are drawn around CJ as he moves

      through the state.  In Los Santos, you'll see high-flying commercial jets

      thousands of feet in the air.  On the beaches of Santa Marina, there might

      be the occasional flyby of a biplane.  Out in the country, smaller private

      aircraft are constantly buzzing around.  When we first implemented the

      feature, we found that every once in a while a plane would spawn with a

      trajectory that led it directly into the side of a mountain or right into

      the ground. And we loved it, so it stayed."

      http://planetgrandtheftauto.gamespy.com/indexa848.html?start_from=102


  I'll add that sometimes the planes come trailing smoke down to the ground.
The area near the SW side of the Big Ear is a good spot to see it more often.

  The lag of the turn of the "camera" behind the turn of a vehicle is the worst

for the helicopters.  Going to a backward view for a moment aims the "camera"

ahead again.


  The Hunter machine gun has auto-aim for the Vigilante mission.


  In "San Andreas," C.J. and others sometimes make superhuman jumps to get into

vehicles, which I noticed playing around with the BUBBLECARS code.  Law enforc-

ers can do this to bust C.J., too, so avoid flying low to the ground during a

wanted rating.

  http://img527.imageshack.us/img527/5831/00gta1hunterhighjumpingswat9aj.jpg


  For something a little different to look at more than it's generally useful, a

helicopter can be tilted to use the big spinning blades as a weapon that flings

targets a good distance.

  I.7.k  Parachute Controls


  Select Parachute in the weapon/gift slot


  Falling before opening the parachute:


  Down/S        slow descent, arms and legs spread

  Up/W           fast forward descent, arms to body and legs together

  A or D          Twirl


  LMB            Deploy a parachute while C.J. is falling


  Parachute deployed:


  S or Down    C.J. pulls his knees up, which slows his descent and moves him

                           forward

  A or Right     Fly left

  D or Left       Fly right

  F or Enter     Detach the parachute (preferably as C.J. nears the ground)

  V                  "Camera" view


  Sometimes, with full Armor and Health, C.J. can survive a long fall, but will

die if he falls the same distance but lands wearing an unopened Parachute.


  Sometimes it doesn't open if C.J. doesn't fall enough 1st.  To avoid that, try

not to cut it close--give him a high altitude where he can deploy it safely.


  When C.J.'s Parachute is deployed and it looks like he may overshoot his land-

ing spot, you can have him fly in a circle to delay his advance toward it.


  C.J. can jump from a flying vehicle into deep water without harm if the water

is deep enough.  If he has a Parachute, it's a way to let him make such a jump

yet keep his Parachute afterward, too.

                             fire a 9mm Pistol; any of them can be dual-wielded with the

                             Jetpack.


  F or Enter       Remove the Jetpack--it may not remain where C.J. leaves it if

                                     C.J. uses something else, like a Parachute, in that slot,   

                                     or uses a vehicle, and might disappear if C.J. goes into 

                                     a building that loads the graphics for the interior.  It  

                                     often appears in front instead of behind him at removal,

                                     leading to moments more like Maxwell Smart than James

                                     Bond when he's in a hurry. 


  C.J. can't enter a building that loads an interior while wearing the Jetpack.


  C.J. has to remove the Jetpack to switch from one of the several weapons he

can fire while wearing it to another, even if the weapon he's equipped with

while wearing the Jetpack runs out of ammo.


  Within limits, the Jetpack will go higher if operated over a higher surface.


  An interesting feature for the Jetpack in the Joypad Configuration is to let

you have C.J. hover motionless by pressing the buttons or keys for strafe left

and strafe right at the same time.  Combined with the auto-target feature, it

can be handy for having C.J. keep some distance while he shoots human targets.

  You use the same controls for the crane in Hunter Quarry except you use the

LMB to activate or deactivate the magnet for it, and V doesn't work to change

the view.


  The Dude crane magnet in Easter Basin, San Fierro, and the one in Hunter Quar-

ry, Bone County, work on vehicles.  (You can have C.J. get into an attached ve-

hicle and make a swing of it.  This can also help you get Insane Stunt and Two

Wheeler stats.)


  The Final Build magnet E of the Clown's Pocket, Las Venturas, only works on

the boxes in the area.  Once the boxes are lifted, they hover in space.


   All three have magnets that look a little like they're from "Plan 9 from Out-

er Space" by Ed Wood, 1959.


  The wrecking ball crane, in San Fierro at the N end of the big brown block N

of where it says "DOHERTY" on the paper map, can be used to attack pedestrians

and vehicles.  It doesn't reach beyond the lot, though, so C.J. has to bring one

into the range of the crane.  A wanted rating will bring the corrupt law en-

forcers and their vehicles around.  It can kill a pedestrian in one drop of the

wrecking ball, but it takes a number of drops or swings of it to do much damage

to a vehicle.  Since it's impractical, it's a sort of Rube Goldberg contraption.

  The Predator police boat, just as in "III" and "Vice City," has a built-in

machine gun that fires forward or to either side.


  C.J. can jack a boat.  Have him swim to the front of it and press Spacebar to

have him grab the side, and again to have him climb aboard.  As in "Vice City,"

the pilot jumps off and can't swim.  If it's a Predator, you may have a police-

man stand on the front and fire at C.J., though.


  See "Codes," I.14, to see how to use the FLYINGFISH code to fly one of the

speedboats like a flying Rhino.

  I.8.a  A rundown of some of the vehicles and some of their real names


  There are pictures of the vehicles at:

  http://thegtadomain.com/sanan/vehicles.php
  http://www.g-unleashed.com/index.php?cat=16&pid=27&page=vehicle_images


  I especially thank the gta-series web site for having the screen shots I re-
lied on the most till I came up with my own.
  http://www.gta-series.com/it/gta-san-andreas/veicoli.html


  I'm sorry if some of the screen shots have looked look a little murky.  For

about half a year, I had to use an old GeForce4 MX 440 graphics card to see the

game vehicle proportions to make real vehicle comparisons.  If I put all the

settings low, I could get rid of graphic distortions in C.J.'s immediate area by

switching between a couple of the lowest resolutions.  With a shot lined up, I'd

crank it to 1024x768 and medium detail for the shot.  Otherwise, it would look

like this:

  Going from a graphics card that barely manages to play the game to one that's

moderately good, with a moderately good PC, otherwise, really makes a differ-

ence.  It's like the difference between seeing a sketch of something compared to

seeing it with the color shading and little light effects added.  A good card,

etc., lets you use a draw distance mod, too, so screenshots look a lot better.

If I go on too much with certain vehicles, it's because the new card makes me

go, "Oo-oo, look at that!" at everything--I'll calm down.


  As noted at the start, this walk-through, with active links, is at:

  http://glenster1.webs.com/


  Click "Back" to return from any of the links there--if you "X" it out, you'll

exit the web page.  To compare screenshots to photographs of vehicles, you might

bring a page up twice and click a link from each.

  

  The vehicles that return unchanged from "Vice City" are covered in "Glenster's

Guide to Some of Vice City" in sections I.9.B to I.9.E.  A few of the new ones

are also covered in this guide at "Exports and Imports for the Cranberry Crane"

(VI.44).


  Sometimes, the years I give for a model aren't the entire range of years the

model looked like that.  The Wikipedia article that accompanies a model may give

the years of the "generation" of a model.  Google Image Search may help me nar-

row the range of years beyond that.  It's not a perfect system, so if anyone has

any helpful ideas, please let me know.  At this writing, I could use the proper

names for, at least, some of the boats, the Sweeper, and the Dozer.


  If a web address I give doesn't work by the time you read this, try using the

beginning of the address and searching the site (or just scouring Google or such

like I did).

  Flying vehicles


  Abandoned AC tower--photos of a short fat plane  the Gee Bee Model R


  The Gee Bee Model R Super Sportster, the "Flying Silo," was made by Granville

Brothers Aircraft of Springfield, Mass.  The R-1 was flown by Jimmy Doolittle to

win the 1932 Thompson Trophy cross-country speed race, and he set a new world

landplane speed record of 476 km/h (296 mph) in the Shell Speed Dash.

  AT-400  Boeing 737--I'm guessing 737-400 to match the "400"; an Airbus A320 is

similar  The AT-400 is in a big hanger at the SE corner of Las Venturas Airport.

C.J. can also get a ride in one as a passenger at each of the three airports.


  If you have C.J. try to go around the surface of it with a Jet Pack, you find

it has some unusual collision files.  There are big invisible parts over the

wings, and a bumpy strip of it over the fuselage.  C.J. can go through the

wheels, the middle of the tail fin, and fly up into part of the belly of the

fuselage, which can leave it in a wheelie position.  I haven't tried the VC su-

perjump, except using an SA AT-400 for the VC Packer, with it, though.


  C.J. can enter an AT-400 on the right or left side, but I'm not sure if the

AT-400 seats one or two.  I haven't yet tried to get the right door near a plat-

form high enough for one of C.J.'s gang members to enter it, if they can.  They

won't go up the steps he can tow to a door.

  Andromada  The Lockheed C-5 Galaxy is a good match for the wings and engines
and may be the origin of the name--the name of a galaxy.  The fuselage has the
right bulge along the lower sides and proportion to the wings and engines, but
the nose is too pointed and the Galaxy is entirely too big and moosey to be the
Andromada.

  A newer cargo jet, the Boeing C-17 Globemaster, just manages to get into the

1992 time frame of the game, and the most similar models (without the upturned

tips on the main wings) have the right round nose.  The proportion between fuse-

lage and engines is wrong but it's a good indication of the overall size of the

Andromada.

  http://img222.imageshack.us/img222/3258/00gta1andromedaboeingc17globem.jpg
  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_C-17_Globemaster_III


  An older cargo jet, the Lockheed C-141B or C Starlifter, is similar but it's
too long and thin with too long a fuselage in front of the main wings.
  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockheed_C-141_Starlifter


  You might say it's mainly a Galaxy reduced to the size of a Globemaster and

given the nose of the Globemaster.  It's featured in "Stowaway" and "A Home in

the Hills."  On PC, you can also make it appear with the GTA SA Control Center

(X.13.c).  You can open and close the hatch in back (but can't get anything in

   Beagle  Britten-Norman Islander  It's high wing, twin prop plane.  If they

made a more stubby-nosed version, it would be perfect.  The 1st Islander, the

G-ATCT c/n 1, shown in the 1st link below, looks the most that way of the ones I

found.  The name may come via a pun with the name of the C-2 Greyhound, which

has a few similar features, and the fact that the black bulb on the nose of new-

er Islanders, combined with the two big front windows, makes it look a little

like a beagle.  The Beagle seats two.

  Cargobob  Sikorsky CH-53 front and attachments, Boeing CH47D Chinook fuselage,

and Eurocopter EC135 tail prop.  This is sort of the Glendale of helicopters

(and about as much fun to drive).  It looks to me like someone took a CH-53 and

smoothed it off and shaped it like a Chinook on the way back to one of those

distinctive Eurocopter tail props.  And thanks to photographer Peter Jong, who I

think is right about the Cargobob looking like it has the fuselage of a Boeing

CH47D Chinook.  It also makes the name funnier:


  The name is, I think, a play on the idea of a shiskebab.  You take a Eurocop-

ter tail prop, including the stem or "stick," and stick a Chinook on it--a cargo

helicopter on it--and you get a Cargobob.  It seats two.

  The word "Hydra" has had many uses.  It began to be associated with something
fierce as the name of a mythical monster with more than one head.  In recent
years, a Hydra-like problem, or Hydra, is one that increases in problems as you
as you try to solve it.
  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lernaean_Hydra


  The Hydra 70 family of WAFAR (Wrap-Around Fin Aerial Rocket) includes the Mk

40, "originally used during the Korean and Vietnam wars," "from about 20 differ-

ent firing platforms, both fixed-wing and armed helicopters, by all US armed

forces.  Today, the AH-64D Apache Longbow carries the Hydra rocket launcher

standard on its weapon pylons."  The relationship of this rocket to the type of

helicopter the Hunter is based on is probably the source of the name of the "San

Andreas" Hydra.

small fuel supply isn't taxed as much.

  Boats


  Coastguard  It's a Boston Whaler, which is the kind of low flats boat that's

good in shallow water.  It's about 20' long with a couple of outboard motors and

a rollover bar-looking thing with several antennae in the back.  It's the same

as the one used in "Vice City."  Whether it is or isn't based on an actual Miami

or San Francisco Coast Guard Response boat, it's a plausible example of how one

could look.  It could also pass for someone's lake and stream fishing boat.

  Dinghy  An inflatable fast rescue, landing, diving, or recreational boat.  It
looks like an inflatable life raft in the front and sides with a steering wheel
stuck in the front and two motors in the back.  It could be used as a dinghy--a
smaller boat used as a utility boat by a larger boat.

  Jetmax  A turbine jet boat.  A jet boat is propelled by sending water out

through nozzles in the back instead of using propellers.  It has a showy inboard

motor with an air scoop and two exhaust pipes.

  Launch  It looks like one of the Police Coast Guard patrol crafts (possibly of
either the New Generation Patrol Craft, PC Class, or Interceptor Craft, PK
Class?) that can have a general purpose machine gun fitted in the back.

  The 'E' class Tiger Marine Fast Response Craft, used by the Maritime and

Coastguard Agency (MCA), the Port of London Authority (PLA), and the Royal Na-

tional Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) on the River Thames, looks like a similar

boat.  It would need a metal hull, if it doesn't have one, to be more of a

match.

  It's more recent than 1992, the time of "San Andreas," but a USN Mark V Spe-
cial Operations Craft (SOC) is a bigger version of a similar boat.  Even more
recent, a CMN Interceptor DV-15 fast patrol boat is a similar kind of boat but
would need to be stretched out to have a longer open deck to be a good match.

  A "launch" is a motorboat with an open or half open deck.  The Launch has a

machine gun fitted on the back but it doesn't work.  It's in the 2nd covered

dock S of the 2nd "S" of "Easter Basin."

  Marquis 69  It looks like the Endeavour 42 sailboat, a sloop, Crockett had in

the TV series "Miami Vice" except smaller--it may be an Endeavor 32, 33, or 35.

A 35' model is shown at the next link.

   Predator  A police boat.  I found a couple of basically comparable fast patrol

boats, shown at the 1st two links below.  It's a little launch with a radar that

doesn't revolve on top.  Like the Predator of "III" and "Vice City," it has a

built-in machine gun that shoots forward or to either side.

Quint, Robert Shaw, hunts sharks with in the Steven Spielberg movie "Jaws,"

1975.  The radar on top revolves.

  Speeder  It's a propeller-driven, original-style "cigarette" speedboat (from

the 1960's when Donald Aronow designed that type of speedboat, probably).

  Squalo III   As in "Vice City," it looks like a "cigarette" speedboat Crockett

had in the TV series "Miami Vice" (except with a rounded windshield, etc.).  In

"San Andreas" it has the railing of the 39' Chris Craft Stinger used in the pi-

lot episode, 1984, and otherwise basically looks like the Wellcraft 38 Scarab KV

used for the 2nd season and on.


  The first link below is for a Chris Craft Stinger, and the next five are Well-

crafts, the last three of which show the one Wellcraft made for Don Johnson

(thanks to posts by DJdude at the Miami-Vice.org forum for those five pictures

of Wellcrafts).

  USS Numnutz: the submarine at the coast of Esplanade East, San Fierro, is a

  As mentioned in section I.1, I think the name of the submarine at the coast of

Esplanade East, San Fierro, may be a pun on the name of Fleet Admiral Chester

William Nimitz, who helped design and served in submarines during much of his

early naval career, was the United States signatory to the surrender terms

aboard the battleship USS Missouri in Tokyo Bay at the end of WWII, and was ac-

tive in San Francisco community affairs in the last years of his life.

  Thanks to Ben "Cerbera" Millard for the tip that the Nimitz class of aircraft

carriers, named after the same Fleet Admiral, is the biggest--the aircraft car-

rier at Easter Basin is relatively puny.

Flying Skill, he gets a Parachute if he bails from a Vortex.  (I used VGGGDKP to

spawn a Vortex on the tallest LS skyscraper and had C.J. drive off--he wouldn't

exit the airborne Vortex when I pressed F, but he ended up with a Parachute.)

  One observation: some people need the Stallion to be a pure Ford Mustang,

which the middle of the Stallion may be a modified version of, but they overlook

the Mustangs of the Hotring Racer, which is a better car, and which they usually

call a Chevrolet Monte Carlo Aero Coupe, which is mostly what Hotring Racer B

is.

  Comet  Porsches and Jaguars

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porsche

  It has the uncovered recessed headlights of a series 2 (1969-1971) Jaguar E-
type.

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaguar_E-Type#Series_2_.281968.E2.80.9371.29


  It has the uncovered convertible cab of a 1967-1973 (and later) Porsche 911

Targa (thanks to sonofkorol at Gamefaqs) featuring a rollover bar (a bit squared

off on the Comet) (the Targa has a removable top and back window)...

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Targa_top


  ...except the back of the roll bar is vertical and covered except for a little

horizontal window, smaller than the ones on the back of Jaguar series 2 E-type

convertible roofs (with unfortunately little rear visibility for the driver).

It's different than the back of the cab of the "Vice City" Comet.  It's like a

squared-off version of the back window of the GTA Hustler.  I haven't found a

real good match for it.


  The top of the front of the body of one of those Porsche 911 Targas has been

smoothed flat from side to side and is horizontal over the engine but slants

down from across the back of the headlights to the front bumper.


  The bumpers are like those of those 1967-1973 Porsche 911 Targas except that

the bumpers are thicker and the back bumper goes completely across the back end.


  The back end of the body is like a 1978-1983 Porsche 911 featuring the "whale

tail."

  http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/7899/00gta1porsche911sctarga19795uy.jpg


  The bumpers are thicker like those on those 911's as well, except the two ver-

tical black segments of the rear bumper are slimmer and repeated on the front

bumper, resembling all-blackened versions of the ones found on some of the bump-

ers of the 1967-1973 models mentioned above.


  And the horizontal bumpers look more like those on a 1985-1990 Jaguar XJ-S.

  Esperanto  1978 Cadillac Eldorado Coupe

                    1980 Lincoln Continental Town Car

                    1972-1979 Lincoln Continental Town Coupe


  It's a stocky version of the "Vice City" Esperanto, which is also mainly a

1978 Cadillac Eldorado Coupe.  But for the "San Andreas" version, different

things are used to change the front and back ends.


   The long oval vertical brake light housings of the Eldorado have been turned

upside-down and the black pads and the housing for them have been removed.

Car with the middle horizontal brake light replaced--it looks like it was
painted with a color that nearly matches the one used for the body.

  The grill and headlights look like those on a 1972-1979 Lincoln Continental
Town Coupe but with a flattened grill.  (From 1973 to 1981, there was an option
to get a Lincoln Town Car, normally a sedan, as a Lincoln Town Coupe.)  A 1978

back from bottom to top.

for two things.


  One, once at the back of the trunk, the Glendale strange tail fins slope down
to the rear bumper and the 1961 Dodge Dart strange tail fins (similar to those
of a 1961 Dodge Polara) curl forward in a horizontal line to the middle of the
side of the body.

                            1983-1986 Ford Mustang LX

                            1987-1988 Ford Mustang GT hatchback


  It has "SUMO" on the engine hood.  1983-1986 Ford Mustang LX (preferably 1986

because it got stronger through that period) with some 1987-1988 Ford Mustang GT

hatchback features.


  You give it the sort of headlights and grill of a 1983-1986 Ford Mustang ex-

cept each pair of headlights are merged into one rectangular headlight as found

on a 1987-1988 Ford Mustang.  You give it the sort of windows of a 1986 LX and

the airfoil found on the back edge of the trunk of some of the 1987-1988 GT

hatchback versions.  Then you improvise a few other NASCAR design changes for

the front and back ends.  The Wikipedia article at a link below has a section on

popular ways the Mustang has been customized.  A couple of 1986 LX models and a

1987 GT hatchback version are shown in the 1st three links below.  The 2nd 1986

model has been customized a bit in the Hotring way.

1987 Ford Thunderbird Aero Bird used for NASCAR racing, although with a thicker
divider between the side windows and less body behind the rear side window like
those on a 1989-1992 (more a "San Andreas" time frame though it appeared in

  It has "BOBO" on the engine hood.  It's a 1986 Chevrolet Monte Carlo Aero

Coupe Notchback.  The Aero Coupe model, introduced in 1986, has a shorter trunk,

which is good for the match, but has a rear window that slopes out more from the

back of the cab, which is bad for it.  A Notchback doesn't have that big rear

window.  Champion Dale Earnhardt is pictured with one below.

dale--sort of like that of a 1961 Dodge Dart.  It's also roughly like a cab for

a four door 1957 Chrysler Windsor with the little window dividers removed, and

with the back window of a 1956 Chevrolet Bel Air.

  Rancher and Ranger  1983-1988 Chevrolet K5 Blazer and S10 Blazer

                                     1984-1992 Jeep Cherokee


  The Ranger is basically a Rancher that's been adapted for police use and is

usually found beyond the main cities.  They're both shaped like the "Vice City"

Rancher.


  A "Vice City" gimmick has broader application in "San Andreas": C.J. gets five

Shotgun shells, for any kind of Shotgun (shells for one add to the ammo of any

other), the 1st time he enters any of the Police cars or a Ranger


  1983-1988 Chevrolet K5 Blazer (the GMC Jimmy is similar) for most of the body

with each pair of headlights simplified into one.

  Thanks to the GTA Forums > GTA San Andreas > General Discussion > Real Car

Names list by nekkidhillbilly for the Chevrolet K5 Blazer tip.

  And thanks to reader Logan King for pointing out that the models of this range

of years make a better match for the grill and headlights. 

  A 1988 model is at the next link.

not the same as Romero's Hearse in "Vice City."


  Front bumper, raised section in the middle of the engine hood, and wheel

wells: 1980-89 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham except the two vertical pieces on the

front of the bumper should be removed.  A 1985 model is shown at the link below.

  The headlights of any of these examples are replaced with two large square

ones.


  The engine hood should come down farther in the front in a straight horizontal

line.  The front end, above the bumper, should be customized to be a bit like

that of a 1971 Chevrolet Impala.

  Sabre  1971-1972 Buick GSX

             1970 Oldsmobile 442

             1970 Chevrolet Chevelle


  1971-1972 Buick GSX for the pairs of round headlights and the sides of the

front bumper.  Of the three cars listed, it also comes the closest to matching

the middle of the grill, although it should be flat and not project to a verti-

cal line in the middle.  The 1970 Buick Gran Sport GSX is remembered as the pow-

erful GSX since GM requirements of the next two years--to use low lead gasoline,

etc.--made the GSX less powerful.  If we choose the Buick, the "Vice City" Sabre

Turbo could be the 1970 GSX and the Sabre could represent the 1971-1972 models.

  The 1970 Oldsmobile 442 gets the headlights and sides of the front bumper

right but the grill is less of a match.

  Thanks to reader Ruffin Bailey for suggesting that the name "Sabre" may come
from the 442, prior to 1968, being an option to soup up an Oldsmobile Cutlass.


  1970 Chevrolet Chevelle for the body  It matches the arch at the back of the
side window better than the two listed above.  The "Vice City" Sabre Turbo could
be the SS 454 (see the Wikipedia article at the link below).

  The back end looks like that of a 1970 Oldsmobile 442 convertible, with the
hard top cab of one of the Chevelle given a window squared off to be a bit
smaller than that of a convertible Chevrolet Chevelle, Buick GS, or Oldsmobile
442.

  Sandking  1984-1992 Jeep XJ Cherokee

                   1993 Jeep Grand Cherokee, aka a Jeep ZJ


  The overall style is that of a 1984-1992 Jeep XJ two door with bigger suspen-

sion and wheels, a hood vent, an air foil on the back of the roof, and the head-

lights made the same vertical length as the grill.


  A 1986 and 1992 model, and three models of unknown years, are shown at the

links below.

  The body looks a little fatter in relation to the windows and upper cab area.
The body, except the front end, has been rounded like a 1993 Jeep ZJ to look
more aerodynamic.

  It's about the same as the "Vice City" Sandking.  It could be used off road,
such as for Baja racing.  (This isn't to be confused with one of the San Andreas
pedestrians calling someone a "baha."  "Baha" is pronounced the same but is a
derogatory term for a hippie that doesn't bath or such.)
  http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=baha


  The bigger suspension makes it credible that it could raise so much when it

has hydraulics, which it has about one in ten-fifteen of the times it appears by

the Big Ear.

least, models of the Ford Mustang Mach 1.  A 1973 model is shown below.

the back rounded off and the wheel wells squared off.  A 1988 and 1989 Ford Mus-
tang LX, and the profiles of the "Vice City" and "San Andreas" Stallions, are

  The Ford Mustang LX rear side windows have been covered with vinyl so the

front side edge is above the back of the doors.  The rear side window dividers

are slid forward to make little nearly triangular rectangular front side windows

except the dividers are vertical.  The back windows look like those on the Mus-

tang convertible.  A 1992 Ford Mustang LX is shown below.

  It has a back bumper and brake lights like a simplified version of those on an
early 1970's Oldsmobile 442/"Vice City" Stallion.  It's as though compressing
the "Vice City" Stallion to make the "San Andreas" Stallion made the brake
lights bigger, like those on the back of a later Oldsmobile.  Thanks to Prodi-
gital at GTA Forums for the 1970 Oldsmobile 442 brake lights tip.  A 1972 Olds-
mobile 442, a 1981 Oldsmobile Delta 88, and the backs of the "Vice City" and
"San Andreas" Stallions, are shown at the 1st four links below.

cab, rounded back end, and squared off wheel wells, with some Oldsmobile stuff

on the ends.

  Stretch  Cadillac limousine and Lincoln Town Car (another Ladillac or Cadin-

coln) stretch limousine--possibly some Ford Mercury limos thrown in for good

measure  It's not the same as the "Vice City" Stretch.


  Most, not all, limousines are customizations of cars by Cadillac or Lincoln.

Some features are better indications of the customizer than of the original car.

Add the fact that Rockstar sometimes makes a vehicle out of a blend of two or

more, and identifying the original car could get tricky.  I mainly used photo-

graphs of Cadillac and Lincoln Town Car limousines to identify a few things

about the Stretch.

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cadillac_Fleetwood
  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lincoln_Town_Car


  Front bumper: the 1989 Lincoln Town Car limo front bumper goes straight across
like the one on the Stretch, but the bumpers should wrap around the sides like
the ones on the Ford Mercury limo given a few paragraphs below.  The two verti-
cal pieces that are on the bumper in front of the grill should be removed, too.

  Back end, brake lights, bumper, and rear window: 1986 Cadillac DeVille without

the little horizontal reflector strip (?) just above the bumper.  It's the same

as on the "Vice City" Stretch.

  Wheel wells: 1992 Cadillac Deville (rectangular with rounded corners) and
other Cadillacs.  At the link below, a regular Deville is shown.  I'd like to
see how good a match the limo version is, but I didn't find one the last time I
checked the Internet.

  Another good match for the wheel wells is the Ford Mercury limo (year?) shown
at the link below.  The black line on the sides, and wrap around bumpers, are
similar, too.  Unfortunately, this is the only picture of it I found the last
time I checked the Internet.

  Baggage  1985 Equitech M40 baggage tractor is close.  (As with the same vehi-
cle of "Vice City," an Equitech for another year is possibly the match, but I
couldn't find it.  Some models by other companies are nearly matches, too.)

  Berkley's RC Van  1971-1974 Honda Life with some minor design changes  The

windows should be a bit smaller, but it's the best match for the body size and

shape I've seen.  The 1986 GMC Vandura and Dodge Ram van or B series van are too

fat, etc., to be matches, but the headlights look like those on one of the Dodge

vans.  Berkley's RC van is little--he only has nine model kit boxes in the back.


  The "San Andreas" Pony, and the "Vice City" Top Fun van and Pony, are the

same.


  A 1972 and 1971-1974 (year?) Honda Life, and a 1985 Dodge 3500, are shown be-

  C.J. can use any Broadway for the Pimping mission, III.22.  One Broadway is
parked by a gas station in the NE area of the block of the Idlewood 24/7.
Thanks to GTA_Phreak for the tip that starting and cancelling the Pimping mis-
sion gives the Broadway 200% Health--the extra endurance is gone after the car
is saved in a garage, but it's easy to start and stop the mission anytime.


  The Broadway is also the vehicle represented over Michelle's garage door.

of this van if you want to give C.J. a Mohawk and beard, etc., and have him pre-

tend to be Mr. T--Lawrence Tero--of the 1983-1987 TV series "The A-Team."  It

comes close to looking like the 1983 GMC G-15 of the show.

  Cement Truck  1986?-1991 Ford L8000 or 9000 Concrete Mixer  The wide rectangu-

lar arc-shaped grill of the Ford is similar but should be widest at the base

instead of the middle, and the Ford headlights should project from the front of

the fenders a bit instead of being recessed into them.  The L of the Ford L

series is more common than the LT or LTS, which look similar.


  The 1st link is for a 1986 (L?) 9000, the 2nd is a 1990 L8000, and the 3rd is

a 1988 LT8000.

   Club  Volkswagen Golf GTI Mk1 or Citi Golf.  (Thanks to FORDSUCK for the
Volkswagen Golf tip.)  The brake lights and rear window of the Club look more
like those on early 1990's Golfs.  The Volkswagen may have two pairs of head-
lights like the Club except the Club has the larger of the two pairs of head-
lights as the inside pair.  The body of the Club is more squared off.  A 1992
Golf GTI is at the next two links.

  Combine Harvester  A combine with a straw chopper attached to the front.  Some
of the John Deere combines I saw are the most similar to the GTA one in shape.
Many of them have a cab with a yellow roof like the GTA one, too.

Deere 8820, and a 1984 8820 are shown at the links below.

combines like the ones shown at the web addresses below.

  DFT-30  A late 1980's to late 1990's (range of years?) Ford Cargo CF8000  Ford

Cargo is a Ford of Europe truck.  The "FT" may stand for "Ford Truck."  I don't

know how you designate the kind with the 3rd window on each side.  It's a good

match for cab shape, fenders, and side windows.  Thanks to Mxyzptlk at GTA For-

ums for showing that it's a better match if, like similar Mitsubishi cargo

trucks, it's given a horizontal black band below the windshield.  The bottom of

the band should be the height of the bottom of the front side window.


  The DFT30 is a six wheel truck that's missing the middle wheel on the left

side.  The 6x4 Ford Cargo trucks like this I found are 2622, 2626, and 2631.  If

the DFT30 is thought to look like a 4x4 on the left side, it matches a number of

1980's Ford Cargo 4x4s.


  The 1987, 1988, 1990, and 1997 models of the Ford Cargo CF8000 are at the next

four links.

  Dozer  ? Wheel loader

  It's called a Dozer, which has tracks like a tank.  But, like the Rhino, it

has wheels instead, so it's a near match for a number of (late 1980's?) Cater-

pillar, Case, Ford, Komatsu, etc., wheel loaders.  I haven't found a good match

for the fenced platform in front of the cab.  I wonder if that's from another

vehicle and this is another example for the Hybrids section.

  Dumper  (Iveco) Astra Rigid Dump Truck, an articulated dump truck.  An "artic-

ulated" vehicle is built in sections that are hinged or connected in some way to

allow flexibility of movement (thanks to my Webster's unabridged).


  Like the Monster trucks, the Dumper is good for running over other vehicles--

it sends one flying now and then, too.

  Dune  A 1991 Mercedes-Benz AK 4x4 with a flatter front end makes the closest

match of the models I saw.  It's one of the kinds of trucks that might be used

in the Paris-Dakar Rally.  The Mercedes-Benz SK is similar but I didn't find a

version of it as a 4x4.  There are similar trucks by MAN (LE2000, ME2000, TG-A,

etc.).

  F.B.I. Truck  1984-1992 Jeep Cherokee   It looks to me like somebody took the

Jeep to a while-you-wait auto-armor place and had it dipped it into blue glop,

then rubbed off a couple of patches on the front windshield with the elbow of

their shirt sleeve to look through.


  This truck is in the game files but not activated for the game.  In the PC

version, you can use a mod, or a vehicle spawner like the GTA SA Control Center

(X.13.c) has, to put it in the game if you like a gloppy Jeep.

  FCR-900  Honda CBR900RR Fireblade  It looks like a PCJ-600/Honda CBR 600 ex-
cept with a bigger engine (900cc).  "RR" stands for "race replica."  The FCR-
900, with a windshield, has two bulbs in the headlight; without the windshield,
it has a single headlight.  The "F" may come from "Fireblade" and the "CR" may
come from "CBR."

  Fire Truck (on the block S of the save place that's on the brown block E of

a late 1980's Maxim Aerial Ladder fire truck.  A 1983 model is shown at the 1st

  Hermes  1949 Mercury Eight two-door except without two divider bars in the

rear window or the 1950 model except without a parking light at either side of

the grill.  It has uncovered rear wheel wells and is customized to be low to the

ground and have the chopped top of a lead sled, and is further customized to

have the grill of a 1947-1953 GMC pickup truck and two pairs of brake lights in-

stead of one pair.


  A slightly modified 1949 Mercury was driven by James Dean in "Rebel Without a

Cause," 1955, which also starred Dennis Hopper, who does the voice of Steve

Scott for "Vice City," and the movie features Griffith Observatory, which is

what the one in Verdant Bluffs in "San Andreas" is modeled after.

  Hotknife  1933 Hudson Pacemaker 8 two-door, three window (the windshield isn't

counted) Coupe customized as a hotrod with a flatter roof, a blower, no fenders,

and front side exhausts.  The most popular cars from this era to customize as

hotrods are 1932-1934 Fords, and in some ways this looks like a 1932 Ford Three

window coupe customized that way.


  It looks like the original grill was removed and a smaller grid and a couple

of bars partly cover the hole.  But the hole indicates the grill isn't from a

Ford.  The closest comparison I know for it is with a 1933 Hudson Pacemaker 8

Coupe.  (If you use a 1933 Hudson-Essex Terraplane Coupe, which has the same

grill as the Hudson Pacemaker 8 Coupe, you need to eliminate the two little rear

side windows when the hood for the cab is created.)


  A 1933 Hudson Pacemaker 8 Coupe, a 1933 Hudson-Essex Terraplane Coupe, and a

regular and a hotrod 1932 Ford Three Window Coupe are shown at the 1st four

links below.  The 1st Hudson and 1st Ford look about identical except for the

grill--the Ford grill is shown better on the Ford hotrod.

  Hustler  1933-1935 or so five window (the windshield isn't counted) coupe with

some hot rod customization: the roof is lower than on the typical coupe of the

time.  A lot of cars of this period have similar features as one another, and

the roof and windows of a lot of them, even pickup trucks, from this period have

gotten the same sort of hot rod treatment, the most popular choices for it being

1932-1934 Fords.  This isn't a Ford, though.


  The grill isn't very wide, doesn't flare forward at the bottom as some grills

from this period do, and the sides of it are parallel instead of getting closer

together from top to bottom.  The closest comparison for the grill I've found so

far is a 1935-1936 Willys (pronounced "willis").

  http://img138.imageshack.us/img138/1773/00gta1hustler1935willysstandar.jpg


  For comparison, it looks like a 1935 Chevrolet three window coupe that's had
the back of the doors and cab moved back a bit and has been made into a five
window coupe.

  http://img106.imageshack.us/img106/7303/00gta1hustler1935chevrolet2doo2.jpg


  Either due to body customization or the model it is, the back of the back
fenders curl down more than most of the cars of the time, and the trunk curls
down father back than the fenders.  The fenders of most cars of the period
flare back beside the flare of the trunk, all at the same 135 degree or so an-
gle.

It would be a better match if it had two pairs of headlights.

  Landstalker  1991-1994 Ford Explorer

  I'd say 1991-1994 Ford Explorer, but since it didn't come out till 1991 and

was used in "Vice City," which takes place in 1986, and if you need it to be

something from the right time period, I'd say 1986 Chevrolet Suburban but with

the windows, grill, and wheel wells of a Ford Explorer.  Personally, I'd just

say the model is based on a 1991 to 1994 Ford Explorer.  (See below; brawling

will be restricted to the rules according to Hoyle.)

  Merit  1990-1998 Mazda 929 (Mark 4, aka the Efini MS-9)
  The 1992 and 1993 (a year after the time of the game, but the style is the
same) models are shown at the links below.

  The headlights, grill, and brake lights are more like the boxier ones on the

1986-1992 Mazda 929 (Mark 3).  (The years of the Mark 3 and 4 overlap).  The

Merit has a few variations of those--for example, the inner edges of the brake

lights are slanted parallel to the slant of the light divider in the middle of

them.  And the outside edges of the parking lights are slanted a little differ-

ently.

  A 1987 and 1990 model are shown at the links below.

glitch: if you drive a front wheel of a Monster truck up to, or a bit over,

another vehicle, then use acceleration and brake at the same time, you can send

the other vehicle flying.  (Just run over other vehicles enough with the Dumper

and you'll see it happen, too.)

by putting their various-sized, pre-fabricated boxes on GMC and Ford trucks.
The roof of this box slants down a bit from back to front over the cab.  ("Vice

box is flatter.)

  NRG-500  2001 Honda NSR500  A 1992 model is similar enough and suits the time

frame of the game.  The Honda NSR500 was used in the 500cc class of motorcycle

Grand Prix racing by Valentino Rossi to come in 2nd in 2000 and be the world

champion in 2001.  The NRG-500 often has the only number he uses: 46, the racing

number of his father.  "NRG" sounds like "energy" and it's also the name of a

model of scooter by Piaggio.

  PCJ-600  1992 Honda CBR600F2  The headlight has a smaller, less demented-look-

ing smile than it did in "Vice City," but it still has, along with the Wayfarer,

one of the biggest smiles of any motorcycle headlight in the game, and earns its

keep the most of the two.  The engine has an exhaust pipe on either side.  The

only guess I have for the initials is that "PC" may come from the favored format

for clear motorcycle stunt videos since the PCJ 600 was introduced to GTA's with

"Vice City."

  Packer  It's like the Linerunner--a 1967-1985 Peterbilt 359/1986 onward 379

but with pairs of round headlights built into the fenders like those on a 1994

Freightliner Classic XL or Western Star 4800 (thanks DazzaJay), or 1976-1981

(range of years?) Kenworth W900, except the Packer fenders are angled in the

back more like those of a Ford LT9000 or Mack Super-Liner.


  The 1st link shows a Peterbilt 379 with a car hauler ramp.  The picture at the

2nd link doesn't have a matching truck but shows a ramp similar to the one a

Packer has.  The 3rd link shows a 1990 Peterbilt (model?) car hauler.

  The 1976-1981 (range of years?) Kenworth W900 is basically similar to the
Packer, and has pairs of round headlights fitted into the fronts of the fenders,
but, like the Peterbilt, the fenders and wheel wells are too round, and the Ken-
worth windshield is about the right size but should be flatter:
  http://img168.imageshack.us/img168/2976/saguide1724kenworthw900uz5.jpg


  The next two links show a 1987 Ford LT9000 and a Mack Superliner to show the
fenders that are closer, not identical, to those on a Packer,

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenworth_W900
  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mack_Super-Liner


  Whichever it is, it's attached to a four or five vehicle transport trailer--a

car hauler--with a straight rigid upper ramp.  It's the same as the Packer in

"Vice City," but the back of the upper ramp can now be raised and lowered (NP8

and NP2) so it can haul vehicles as well as serve as a jump ramp.


  Redtier999666, of the Gamefaqs PS2 message board, wrote a post that explained

how to do something that was mentioned in an earlier post by Webdude06--how to

get an Insane Stunt bonus with a Packer.  Have C.J. raise the ramp of the Packer

and back it up to a pedestrian--if they walk under the ramp, the Packer may fly.

  Phoenix  1979-1981 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am

  The separating strip was removed from between each pair of headlights, and the

optional engine hood vent was enlarged.  The dividing strip between the side

windows was narrowed and made vertical, and the side windows were made more nar-

row horizontally--seen in profile, the "San Andreas" version looks like the ends

of the "Vice City" version were pushed to make the car shorter and fatter.  It

has the two pairs of round brake lights of a 1961-1992, at least, Chevrolet Cor-

vette.


  (C.J. can get one by failing the "San Fierro Hills" Street Race or by taking

Big Poppa's in "A Home In The Hills."  You can also make one appear with the GTA

SA Control Center, X.13.c.)


  A 1979 and 1980 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am and a 1980 Chevrolet Corvette are

have just been a glitch.)  The Quadbike seats two.

  RC Cam  Light orange-brown terra cotta flower pot without a bottom.  It trav-

els silently like a futuristic hovercraft with the handling of an inflatable

punching toy that's weighted at the bottom and rights itself after it's hit.

It has the appearance of being mostly filled with dirt, but only if viewed from

above, and C.J. passes through it and parts of the pot to sit in it.  It's round

but leaves a square shadow.  C.J. opens an invisible door before he sits in it,

and steers with an invisible steering wheel.  It has headlights and brake lights

and passes through other vehicles.

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flower_pot
  http://gta.wikia.com/wiki/RC_Cam


  The name may come from the idea of surveillance gadgets hidden in concealment
devices like flowerpots (or the trophies of deer heads with red glowing eyes
that shazard pointed out are above the exit door at Palomino Creek and Blueberry
Ammu-Nations; there's another in Toreno's ranch but the eyes don't glow).
  http://img179.imageshack.us/img179/5015/00gta1screen1545sv.jpg
  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concealment_device


  The name may also be due to it letting C.J., in the 1st person view, pass
though other vehicles to see the people inside them.
  http://img379.imageshack.us/img379/4247/00gta1screen6027jm.jpg


  It also seats two and can be used with the speedfreak, wheelsonlyplease,

ripazha, and bubblecars codes.

to give it a Cadillac look.  The "Vice City" Regina is the same.

  The closest I found for a definition for "Regina" in Urban Dictionary are a

couple of phrases it's part of that use the word to mean a woman who thinks

they're better than they are--I cleaned that up a little.  This could be symbol-

ized in the Regina with the customized Cadillac front though the rest isn't a

custom Cadillac.  The name could also be due to the fact that "Volvo" sounds a

little like "vulva."

  Unless a better match comes along, I'm going to figure the fenders may be

meant as a sight gag to rib the 1958-1962-era Cadillac fenders.  A good web site

  Roadtrain  1977-1993 Mack Super-Liner (still made as a light version of the

Australian Titan) except the fenders/headlights are different in the front (more

similar during a segment of that period?).  Thanks to DazzaJay for the tip on

the Mack and the photos at the 1st link below.

  The grill covering and fenders look more like the kind on caertain heavy duty
International trucks, like the (year?) S-F2500 or the 1980 1900 shown at the
next two links.  Several such trucks, such as some models of Ford LTL 9000, have
similar headlights.

  Rumpo  1981-1986 Dodge Ram Van Conversion, aka Hi-Top.  A Dodge Camper Van, if

the same size, looks similar.  The owners gave these vans special religious

hats.  Don't curse them out in traffic--you'll die.  If God doesn't get you, the

owner--no, no, no...

 I added a later model to show one with the same Hi-Top shape.

good handling for a moderate speed vehicle, and for having a working water can-

  San Fierro trolley  California Street line San Francisco cable car.  A cable

car is pulled by a cable in a conduit underneath a slot between the rails.  San

Francisco has the only permanently operational manually-operated cable car sys-

tem.

  I used the Camera on a two car San Fierro trolley that wasn't moving and read
the triangular sign that's inside it--it says "Powell & Mason Sts."
  http://img151.imageshack.us/img151/3858/00gta1trolley53ol.jpg


  Thanks to imut_knight at GTA Forums for telling me it's a reference to real
life and is referred to on this toy trolley:
  http://img48.imageshack.us/img48/5084/00gta1trolley9m3lj.jpg


  According to the next link, the Powell and Mason Streets line is one of the
oldest cable car lines still operating in San Francisco:
  http://www.cablecarmuseum.org/archive/Today/index.html


  Normally, nothing stops the San Fierro trolley, so some people at the "San An-
dreas" message boards have dubbed it "the trolley of doom."  At one link given
below, a screenshot shows a car stuck sideways in the back car of a two car
trolley.  A better example of that is near the end of the "San Andreas" stunt
video by Gotups and Buzzsaw called "Synergy": they somehow got a Packer stuck
sideways in there to wreak havoc down the street.

  Savannah  1964 Chevrolet Biscayne or Bel Air (an Impala would have two sets of

three brake lights).  As with the Blade, all I have for the shape of the plate

around the brake lights is that it's a bit like the shape on the back end of a

1963 Chevrolet Biscayne or Bel Air (a 1963 Biscayne is shown at the 5th link be-

low).

  Securicar  The International Navistar 4900 Truck has a similar front end.

I'll guess it's a Navistar armored car (modified like the SWAT Truck "Bulldog"

II sold by Alpineco) or even a Navistar Mine Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP)

armored fighting vehicle since Navistar is the biggest supplier of MRAP armored

vehicles for the US military.

  Sweeper  I haven't found a real good match for it.  It's really more of an en-
closed compact ride on litter vacuum sweeper made to handle a small neighbor-
hood, beach, or park.  The sloped front reminds me a little of the front of an
Elgin Pelican, a big street sweeper I'm more familiar with.
  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Street_sweeper


  A Madvac 231D, Scarab Minor, Schmidt Classic, Johnston 5000 compact, and Elgin

Crosswind, just given as basic examples of a compact sweeper truck, are shown at

  Tampa  1965-1969 Chevrolet Corvair body styling that's been made longer and

flatter--the size of the body below the cab roof seems more like that of a 1965

Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu.


  It's also been given a flatter front end with a six-sided grill.  The grill

looks like the inside edges of the Corvair headlight plates have been reversed

for the outside edges of the Tampa grill, and it's a little smaller than the

grill of a 1965-1966 Ford Mustang.  It might be a clue to a longer, flatter car

the Corvair is a blend with, and it just be there to throw people off when they

try to guess the real car comparison for it--I haven't seen a match for it yet.


  Thanks to nekkidhillbilly, reaffirmed by Gman8, at GTA Forums for the Chevro-

let Corvair tip.

  Taxi  A 1990's Chevrolet Caprice.* with the cab of a 1984-1986 Holden VK Com-

modore.  (The "Vice City" Taxi was a Ford LTD--not Crown Victoria--1983 to, at

least, 1985.)  The Taxi and the Cabbie can be used for the Taxi Driver mission,

III.9.


  The 1st time C.J. enters a Taxi or Cabbie he gets $12 (as Tommy did in "Vice

City").

  Thanks to the Real Life Car List by Hamish Duncan, aka FORDSUCK, for the 1989

Holden VR Commodore tip.

  Tornado  1958 Chevrolet Bel Air  Thanks again to FORDSUCK for noticing the

grill, with a couple of projections, is like the one on a 1957 Chevy Bel Air

(shown at the 3rd link).  The front of the front bumper is shaped more like the

one on a 1957 Plymouth Savoy, Belvedere, or Fury (a Savoy is shown at the 4th

link).

  Towtruck  1982-1986 Ford F550 (F450?) tow truck, aka a wrecker, without the

horizontal bars on the grill  The F550 has a thicker engine area than the hand-

ful with lower numbers in the F series, so the back of the engine hood and bot-

tom of the windshield is higher, so they're higher than the bottoms of the side

windows.  At the third link below, the Holmes unit on the back of the F350 looks

similar except for the back of the top of it.  (For the "holmes wrecker" that

wants to wreck it with a truck, I guess.)  It has bumpers that began appearing

in the later 1980's.


  I had a hard time finding an F550 for the time period, let alone one that's a

wrecker, on the Internet, so you'll have to imagine it pieced together from what

I could find.


 The 1st three links below show a 1985 (F550?) truck, then a 1999 F550 (too re-

cent, styled differently, but you can see it's moosier), then a 1988 Ford F450

wrecker (too recent, so the style is a bit wrong; it looks like it has a Holmes

wrecker), then a (year?) Ford F350 with a Holmes wrecker.

  Tractor  1965-1971 (?) Ford 2000, 3000, 4000, or 5000 (?) tractor  This Ford

tractor was part of a product line that extend by 1000's from 2000 to 9000 and

ran from 1965-1975 (see the history of it at the 3rd link below).  In the range

of it I 1st listed, some matched the headlights (built into the front instead of

on either side of it), the body over the front sides of the motor, and fenders,

but I didn't find all of that with as slim a body covering along the top of the

sides.

  A couple of Ford 2000's, the 1st from 1970 and the 2nd from an unidentified

year, are shown at the 1st two links below.

  Trashmaster  1992 Ford F800 ten-wheeler used as a rear loader garbage truck

It's the same truck as the Yankee, and both are the same as the same-name trucks

in "Vice City."  For more about this model, a 9th generation (1992-1996) F

series truck, appearing in the time period of that game, 1986, see "Yankee."


  A 1995 Ford F800 and a 1992 International DT360, just shown to show the big

10th generation, but it looks the same to me--with a similar trash box is shown

  Tug  Baggage tractor.  As with the Baggage, there are a lot of similar-looking

models but I couldn't find an exact match.  A Harlan Baggage Tow Tractor Model

HTAG-30/40 basically looks like a Tug.  Although the Tug has a hitch on the back

as a Baggage vehicle does, I've yet to find anything that can be hitched to it.

  A Utility Van can also be hitched to a little "STREET CLEAN" trailer, but I'm
not sure if it's in the unmodified game.  So far I've only seen it by using the
GTA SA Control Center (X.13.c) which calls it a "Utility Trailer."

    Voodoo  1960 Chevrolet Bel Air coupe low-rider  The 1960 Chevrolet Biscayne

Fleetmaster, Biscayne, and Bel Air models had two brake lights per side--the Im-

pala had three per side.  The Biscayne Fleetmaster was the least expensive, with

some parts painted instead of being chrome-plated.  The regular Biscayne had

less "brightwork," as the Wikipedia site describes it, than the Bel Air.


  Some of the small number of Biscaynes and Bel Airs I found with the Google

search engine have been fixed up and painted, and I can't be sure which, if any,

of the Biscaynes I saw are Biscayne Fleetmasters.


  The Voodoo has a chrome plate across the back that the brake lights are set

in.  The Bel Air had that chrome plate or a chrome ring around the same area.

Unless all the Biscaynes I saw were Fleetmasters, it looks like the Biscayne

didn't have the chrome plate or ring.


  The Voodoo doesn't have chrome-plating on the edges of the tail fins.  All the

Biscaynes I found had that chrome plating on them, so the lack of it could be a

detail of a Biscayne Fleetmaster or just a detail that was left off.


  The chrome stripe on each side of the Voodoo looks wider than the one on the

Bel Air and I didn't see one on a Biscayne, so it either suggests the Bel Air or

a customization.


  The "Vice City" Voodoo is similar.

  Thanks to reader Timo Hakala for writing to me that Rockstar designed it so
you can blow it up by shooting the license plate in the back because the gas cap
is behind the license plate on an Impala.  (So I guess it's the same for a Bis-
cayne or Bel Air.)

  Walton  See the section above on Hybrids.


  Washington  1984(?)-1987 Lincoln Continental  The body looks like a model from

the latter part of the 1982-1987 generation--more rounded.  It doesn't have the

round raised section, where the spare tire goes, on the trunk.  The outside

edges of the parking lights have been made vertical and the top of the grill is

a bit lower.  In addition to the vertical brake lights, it has the horizontal

brake lights of a Lincoln Town Car except the middle section is replaced by a

license plate.  (The "Vice City" Washington and FBI Washington have a body and

grill more like a Lincoln Continental from the 1982-1983 part of the time

range.)

  Yankee  1992 Ford F800 used as a box truck

  It's the same truck as the one used as a Trashmaster.  The earliest matching

picture I found was from 1994, so it's probably from the F-Series 9th generation

(1992-1996) described in the Wikipedia article below.  If so, since it appeared

in "Vice City" in a 1986 setting, it's like the Slamvan in having a real life

counterpart that appeared after the time frame of the game.  (The Yankee 1st ap-

peared, and looked about like it does in "San Andreas," in "GTA III," which has

a 2001 or so time frame.)


  I try to pick vehicles that appeared within the time frame of the game when I

can, but to adhere to that too strictly is impossible.  Many of the vehicles,

like the Glendale, are mixtures that never appeared in that combination in any

period in real life at all.  I only have a hard and fast rule that if a vehicle

has a real life counterpart, it has to appear before the game was created--af-

terward is right out...unless someone mods a Mercury to look like the Cuban

Hermes after "Vice City" comes out or such.

  I.9  Wanted Ratings


  - One star causes a policeman or two to chase on foot or in one or two Police

Cars, Rangers, or HPV1000s, and attack with 9mms or Nightsticks; if C.J. is in a

boat or in the water, or flying low enough over water, travelled by boats, po-

lice may attack with a Predator or two, firing 9mm guns and the machine gun of

the Predator,


  - two, the police chase and attack more aggressively,


  - three, the police chase and attack with 9mm pistols and sometimes Shotguns,

roadblocks of destructible sawhorses and Police cars with police men who attack

with 9mm pistols, and occasionally Shotguns, are put up, and a Police Maverick

firing a machine gun joins to chase and attack.


  The police on the ground are mostly replaced for the three higher wanted rat-

ings, and the replacement for each of the three is unique to that wanted rating.

Otherwise, Predators of police still fire 9mm pistols or the machine gun of the

Predator if C.J. is in a boat or in the water, or flying low enough over water,

travelled by boats, and a Police Maverick still fires a machine gun in each

case.  In addition, a Hydra that fires missiles may appear if C.J. is flying

high enough in each case.


  - four, roadblocks of destructible sawhorses and Enforcers with S.W.A.T.

agents who attack with Mini-SMGs are put up, and S.W.A.T. agents chase in En-

forcers, rappel from another helicopter, and attack with Mini-SMGs,


  - five,  roadblocks of destructible sawhorses and FBI Ranchers with FBI agents

who attack with SMGs are put up, four FBI agents per FBI Rancher chase and at-

tack with SMGs, and a News Chopper, and a second Police Maverick that attacks

with a machine gun, may appear near the Police Maverick that attacks with a ma-

chine gun, and


  - six, roadblocks of destructible sawhorses and Barracks with Army soldiers

who attack with M4s and Shotguns are put up, the Army soldiers chase in Barracks

and Rhinos and attack with M4s and Shotguns, and a News Chopper, and a second

Police Maverick that attacks with a machine gun, may appear near the Police Mav-

erick that attacks with a machine gun.


  C.J. can get five wanted stars after "Farewell, My Love" (VI.15).


  C.J. can get six wanted stars after shooting down the five Mavericks in "In-

terdiction" (VIII.3) (thanks to rubregg for the tip).


  In San Fierro, social worker policemen, who tell C.J. they offer counseling

and understanding as an alternative but attack just like the other policemen,

appear among the policemen.


  Thanks to Orion_SR for the extra information about what triggers the game to

create law enforcement, etc.  During a one star wanted level, only one police

man on foot will chase C.J. at a time--the one that's closest to C.J..  If a

second one joins in shooting at him, the one farther away stops when they're

through with their current round of shots.  They get confused someetimes,

though, as when Orion_SR had C.J. get behind a police man who didn't take up the

attack on C.J. and a second police man kept shooting the first one.


  And the map has hundreds of spawn points for the appearance of law enforce-

ment, so you can remember some of them and plan C.J.'s crime spree routes ac-

cordingly.


****



  One wanted star and bribes


  For one star, I think having C.J. get away from a pedestrian area, get on

foot, and crouch helps end it.  Otherwise, you can just have C.J. keep driving,

flying, or sailing, fast enough that the police can't bust him till the star

goes away.


  Unlike "Vice City," where only one star might go away in time, I've had higher

numbers of stars do that in "San Andreas."  Rusk says up to four might do that

depending on what C.J. did to get them.


  A bribe gets rid of one wanted star.


  Once a bribe is used, another appears in the same location in five hours of

game time (a little over five minutes) if C.J. is at least 20 feet (?) from the

spot it usually appears in at the time it can reappear.


  Some airborne bribes, or ones near the ground with enough clearance around

them, can help if C.J. is flying.  For the locations of the airborne bribes, see

"How to get as much done as possible before starting the main missions" (I.16).

********



  Some basics for handling a wanted rating


  Orion_SR gets my thanks for the tips he picked up in having C.J. make bold ex-

plorations into the off-limit areas with a four star wanted level--tips that

have good general application in having C.J. survive a high wanted level (I.16):


  For a higher wanted rating, the firing at C.J. increases, and knocks down his

Armor and Health if he's on foot, so try to keep him driving.  Have C.J. drive

fast enough to keep the Police from being able to bust him, but drive slow

enough to be able to brake to avoid Police cars that drive in front of him.

Have him try to drive off-road, even away from where pedestrians appear, and

cross the street in the middle of blocks instead of at intersections, as much as

possible to cause the Police to lose track of him.


 If he's flying, have him fly low to the ground to try to avoid some of the

shots fired from Police Maverick helicopters.  Flying low can also cause any Hy-

dras, which fire heat-seeking missiles at him, to lose track of him (as in

"N.O.E.").


  C.J. gets full Armor the 1st time he gets into an Enforcer.  If C.J.'s Armor

is knocked down by law enforcement, you might have him jack an Enforcer.


  C.J. will probably be shot at if he's on foot or swimming when he's wanted.

Sometimes he's busted instead if he's in a vehicle that's on the ground, or a

flying vehicle hovering near the ground, when the corrupt law enforcers attack

him.  Law enforcers like to ram his vehicle with their land vehicles, so it's

frequently a good evasive maneuver to have C.J. brake instead of accelerate when

that's about to happen.


********



  Things that remove any number of wanted stars


  Having C.J. get a vehicle a new coat of paint at a Pay 'n' Spray, Michelle's

garage, or a mod shop, having him put on a hat, shades, or clothes for torso or

legs, get a haircut, get a ride on an airline from one of the three airports to

one of the other ones, and sometimes end a mission, can get rid of any number of

wanted stars.


  Having C.J. take off and put on the same torso, etc., clothes works, too, so

you can have him do that at the very start of the game when he only has one out-

fit, or later if you don't want to change his look.


  According to MisterKrawk at the Gamefaqs message board, you can also cancel a

wanted level by having C.J. use the monitor at any school then just exit the

screen--it also creates good weather.


  Each of the three airport airline offices (I.7.g) is available for rides when

its territory is legally available--C.J. has to make at least two territories

legally available to use the airlines for rides.  Thanks to Orion_SR for telling

me that when the Badlands become legally available C.J. can get an airline ride

from Las Venturas, which clears the wanted rating he got from going there, to

Los Santos, too.


  (Having C.J. get wasted or busted clears a wanted rating, too, but I don't

save the game after that.  Saving the game can do it, but I don't save the game

while C.J. has wanted stars, either.)


  (At the other extreme, having C.J. drive a law enforcement vehicle can make a

wanted rating last at least as long as he drives it.)


****



  The Stat for how long C.J. can make a five star wanted rating last


  One place to try could be the Pay 'n' Spray across from the Cluckin' Bell in S

Idlewood, Los Santos.  Leave a vehicle in it so C.J. can get rid of the rating

before getting killed.  A save place with a wardrobe closet that has clothes in

it will work just as well, especially one with an awning, like the Clown's Pock-

et, that also lets C.J. run for cover from helicopter fire.


  Another good place is the mid-N side of Corvin Stadium in San Fierro.  The low

ground between the stadium and the road the law enforcers show up on makes a

kind of moat.  There's a chili dog vendor and a soft drink machine on the porch

if C.J.'s Health gets low.


****



  Fun with wanted ratings


  As with the last couple of GTAs, it can be fun to lead the law enforcer's ve-

hicles over Unique Jumps.


  Another gimmick is to cause their vehicles to fall down slopes, such as the

side of Mount Chiliad.


  Another spot like that is Fisher's Lagoon, mostly S on the beach under the

"L," in Red County.  When I tried it, the law enforcement vehicles kept coming

over the guard rail of the road to the W.  They couldn't handle the slope from

it very well, and they usually either tried to get back up the slope, ignoring

C.J., or slid right past the beach into the water.  At that stage, I didn't see

any helicopters, for some reason.  Before helicopters showed up, C.J. had little

to shoot--the biggest worry is he would die of starvation from how long he could

stand around and watch this.  Then I flew him to a vehicle left in a Pay 'n'

Spray.


  A similar spot you might like for C.J. if he gets a wanted rating during a

rain is an area of Chinatown with steep streets on three sides.  The law en-

forcement vehicles slide back down those streets when they try to drive up to

him.


  In one test I did, a police car would fly down from a roof onto the E part of

the E to W street of the N side of the "wine glass" shape of the Emerald Isle

area while C.J. drove E to W on it.  It's sort of a Lemmingsmobile.  Orion_SR

wrote to me that the proper place for the Police car to come from is through the

gate of the LVPD garage to the E, but there's no Z axis figure (vertical place-

ment) for the car, so it may come from the roof.  (He also said pictures by GTA

Phreak and zmoonchild of the falling car are what prompted Orion_SR and pdesco-

bar to try to figure out trigger zones.)


  He said a similar Police Lemmingsmobile may fly from the roof of the LV Court

House garage instead of through the gate for the same reason.  The gate is N of

the NE corner of the block with "CA ANTE" of "ROCA ESCALANTE."  If you have C.J.

drive E then S around that corner, you might see the Police car crash on the

road farther S (in the area of the garage with a Minigun).


  voodoochild19's post at Gamefaqs reaffirms that if C.J. is going to use a

weapon weaker than a Rocket Launcher or Minigun to shoot down a helicopter, it's

easier if he shoots at the front of the propeller motor box on the roof.


  A Hydra dogfight, dropping chaff to throw the attacking Hydras off and shoot-

ing them down with missiles, can be exciting.  One gimmick which might help you

target (Spacebar) and shoot attacking Hydras is to put the thrusters of C.J.'s

Hydra in a halfway position (NP2 and NP8) so it maneuvers like a jet but goes

slowly.

  The off-limits area of Area 69

  http://img179.imageshack.us/img179/958/00gta1screen995gu9.jpg


  From the start of the game till "Farewell my Love" (VI.15), having C.J. go

over the off-limits section of Area 69 causes a four star wanted level.  After

that mission, it causes a five star wanted level till C.J. leaves the area, when

it drops down to four.


  The fenced-in sections of Area 69 give the best reference for the off-limits

areas of it--it's a smaller area within the one surrounded by the dirt path

shown on the map and radar in the game.


  The boundaries of the off limits areas are:


  - W: about four feet outside the W fence, and extending straight south to a 90

degree angle with the S boundary.


  - N: in the NW, straight E from the middle of the SAM missile launcher and

along the inside of the W half or so of the N fence, and a couple feet outside

the E half or so of the N fence.


  - E: a couple of feet outside the E-most E fence, and extending straight S to

a 90 degree angle with the S boundary.


  - S: a couple of feet outside the S-most S fence, and extending E to a 90 de-

gree angle with the E boundary, and extending W to a 90 degree angle with the W

boundary.


  For more about the blind spots of the SAM sites in Area 69, see the end of

"Black Project," VIII.15.


  The four SAM sites at Area 69 are active throughout the game.

  The off-limits area of Easter Basin Naval Base

  http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/7480/00gta1screen996tx8.jpg

  From the start of the game till "Farewell my Love" (VI.15), going over the

off-limits area of the Easter Basin Naval Base causes a four star wanted level. 

After that mission, it causes a five star wanted level till C.J. leaves the ar-

ea, when it drops down to four.


  Below the SW corner is a set of steps, not indicated on the map, that lead up

E from a low pier, which is shown as a small square.  The N-S border line I drew

is N of the base of the steps.


  The off-limit area extends about two feet N of the entrance--from there, E to

the shore and W to about halfway along a little section of fence.


  The SAM sites on the ship are only active during "Vertical Bird" (IX.2).

****


  Interior heaven


  Most of the hidden interiors are rendered separately from the exterior SA

world and are grouped in "heavens," high above the usual height limit of the

game, which include commonly available  places on the ground, like Cluckin'

Bell.  Entering a commonly available one gives you access to the others of the

group.  See "Hidden Interiors via the Ganton Gym!" at GTA Forums and the article

on Hidden Interiors at en.wikigta.org:

  http://gtaforums.com/topic/166773-hidden-interiors-via-the-ganton-gym/
  http://gtaforums.com/topic/166773-hidden-interiors-via-the-ganton-gym/page-60
  http://en.wikigta.org/wiki/Hidden_interiors_%28GTA_San_Andreas%29


  If you want to teleport C.J. to a Hidden Interior, make sure you send him
somewhere he can get there from 1st--an interior of the same interior heaven
group.  For example, from the inside of the Prickle Pine save house, C.J. can
teleport to the Andromeda interior used in "Stowaway."  If you don't do that,
you may just watch C.J. fall a long way to invisible ground.

  The places in each heaven:
  http://gta.wikia.com/wiki/Hidden_Interiors_Universe
  http://www.gtamodding.com/wiki/Interior#San_Andreas_2


  You might otherwise want to use the Parachute code, AIYPWZQP, to give C.J. a
safe landing if he falls.  The Jetpack code is ROCKETMAN.  I've had C.J. fall
and it didn't give him a Jetpack till he hit the ground, which wasn't much use,
yet the Parachute appeared in time for the same fall.


  A GTA Forums message posted by Fireman gave Edison Carter's list of the coor-
dinates for the PC version of the hidden interiors:
  http://gtaforums.com/topic/214434-hidden-interiors-coordinates/
  http://gtaforums.com/topic/166773-hidden-interiors-via-the-ganton-gym/page-60#entry2954737


  A number of the interiors are listed in the data\maps\Audiozon.ipl file.


  Have C.J. enter a place that loads the graphics for the interior, then tele-

port him to an interior of the same group.


  Spaceeinstein's SA version of his "All In One Mod" (X.13.ii) makes it easy to

have C.J. go to the hidden interiors, too.



  The Atrium, Doherty garage, Area 69, and Sindacco plastics factory interiors

appear inside their exteriors, but only the last two interiors appear at the

same time as the outside world.  The Verdant Meadows safehouse, Welcome Pump

truck stop, and Lil' Probe Inn interiors are all below ground in basically the

same area as their exteriors.


  The Atrium and the Doherty garage are distinctive hidden interiors in that

their interiors appear with some exterior elements added.  You can compare ex-

terior things seen from outside and inside to see the difference.  The Jetpack

works in the Atrium so you can use it to look through the upper windows.


  Opius says that the reason most interiors are created separately from their

exteriors is that many are larger than the exteriors and, since some use a lot

of polygons, it saves the game from having to render a batch of them unnecessar-

ily.

  Liberty City


  I'll give you a multiple choice of ways to see Marco's Bistro, from the easi-

est to the hardest.



  - Install the Liberty City mod for "Vice City," which uses the interior and

back lot and yard of Marco's Bistro from "San Andreas" except for the snow, and

send Claude there to look at it.  He can use a helicopter to look at the rest of

Liberty City, too.

  http://gtaforums.com/forum/333-gta-liberty-city/



  - Teleport.


  According to Fireman:

  http://gtaforums.com/topic/195114-get-to-liberty-city-in-5-seconds-or-less/


  Send C.J. into any interior that has a yellow entrance cone (C.J's house, a

fast food place, etc.), then use these coordinates to send C.J. to the inside of

a warehouse:


  x 1416.725

  y 2.203633

  z 1000.926


  Then have C.J. teleport from the warehouse to Liberty City:


  My coordinates for the street in front of Marco's Bistro:


  X -737.7181

  Y 492.2733

  Z 1371.977


  Fireman's coordinates for the back lot of Marco's Bistro:


  x  -819.465

  y   504.4395

  z 1362.436


  From there, C.J. can use the back door to see the interior.


  You can have C.J. shoot a gun and see what causes a ricochet to see what's

solid.


  Downhill from the front of Marco's, the street and sidewalks are solid until

beyond the first intersection.  N from Marco's at the top of the hill, the

street and sidewalks are solid up until past the first gray door on the left.

In front of Marco's, the building N of Marco's isn't solid, and the darks walls

of the S part of Marco's aren't solid.


  The Jetpack won't help C.J. fly in Liberty City, but you can use the "kanga-

roo" code so he can jump over a wall from the highest patio in front to the back

lot.


  The back lot, yard, and walls that enclose them are solid.  You can have C.J.

do a "kangaroo" jump to the N over a couple of walls and walk on a couple of al-

leys.


  If you use the SCM Hook (X.13.ee), you can remove the height limit for the

Jetpack and let C.J. fly to get a better look at the scenery.  More of Portland

can be seen than you might have expected, although the graphics are mostly pret-

ty plain.

  http://gtaforums.com/topic/222397-scm-hook-for-san-andreas/


  According to edisoncarter, "You can teleport straight to LC if you go into

SubUrban or Caligula's Casino, although the sky color probably won't be right."


  If you have C.J. teleport to the warehouse, you can have him use the Jetpack

to fly to the Doherty garage since approaching it this way causes the N garage

door to be open.  The "camera" views used while C.J.'s inside the garage aren't

the best for exploring, but you can have C.J. use his Camera to get a close look

at everything.



  - Ben Fleming at GTA Forums explains how you can send C.J. to Liberty City on

PS2 and Xbox, also a long method that works for all versions of "San Andreas,"

at the next link.

  Entrance markers in the sky


  A yellow inverted cone of light, the kind used by C.J. to enter and exit

buildings, for the interior of the Cluckin' Bell hovers high above the ground

level exterior of the Cluckin' Bell in Fort Carson, Bone County.  It's on the E

side of the stem of the "Y" formed by two roads E of the main residential sec-

tion of blocks.  (To get to the cone of light, you might use the "SCM Hook" mod,

X.13.ee, to remove the height limit for the PC Jetpack, or you might try the

method rwesterh used for the next example.)


  rwesterh found a yellow entrance marker for a 24-7 high above the middle of

the E side of the brown oval of Blueberry Acres.  He used the GTA SA Control

Center, X.13.c, to teleport C.J. up to it.  The coordinates he used to get C.J.

up there in a flying Dinghy are:


  X:    1.277

  Y: -31.309

  Z: 990.962


  Fireman says there are a lot of them high above Catalina's place, too.

  How to enter the Bone County "Stowaway" Andromada

       by MOrt(at)nius and me


  [email protected] writes that the coordinates for the interior of the Andromada used

in "Stowaway" are X: 319.0025, Y: 1024.137, Z: 1949.88.


  I'll add that you could have C.J. enter the Prickle Pine save house in NW Las

Venturas or a Cluckin' Bell, then use the GTA SA Control Center (X.13.c) to

teleport C.J. to this Andromada interior.


  The exterior of the jet, with a red windshield, isn't solid, so you can't have

C.J. teleport up about 10 feet more and walk around on it.  You could use the

SCM Hook (X.13.ee) to allow the Jetpack to travel higher than the usual height

limit, use the "ROCKETMAN" code to give C.J. a Jetpack, then have C.J. fly out

the end (the end C.J. jumps from in "Stowaway") to let C.J. fly around to have

a look at it.

  Fireman's, edisoncarter's, and pdescobar's coordinates



  Thanks to Fireman for these coordinates (I found the return trip ones):


  Sweet's house, seen in "Reuniting the Families"--send C.J. into Sub Urban or

Caligula's, then teleport him to:

  X 2524.27, Y -1679.94, Z 1015.497

  (Send him back to Sub Urban: X 203.778, Y -48.4924, Z 1001.805.)


  Fireman says if C.J. isn't equipped with a weapon, the light in Sweet's living

room is off, but if he's equipped with a weapon, the light is on.


  Ryder's place--send C.J. into The Pig Pen, then teleport him to:

  X 2464.109863, Y -1698.659912, Z 1013.509949

  (Send him back to The Pig Pen: X 1205.476, Y -8.671263, Z 1000.922.)



  Thanks to edisoncarter for these coordinates (I found the return trip ones):


  Airport--send C.J. to the Johnson house clothes closet (Wardrobe), then tele-

port him to:

  X -1863.149902, Y -19.6598, Z 1061.149902

  (Send him back to the Johnson house clothes closet: X 255.137, Y -41.5322,

  Going through the Jefferson Motel skylight by me


  One of the rooms of the Jefferson Motel in Los Santos has a skylight, and a

floppy disk, like the ones you save games with, hovers in it.  (Between the Mul-

holland Intersection and the E coast, the radar and in-game map show a thick N-S

section for the railroad where it's between two streets.  The Jefferson Motel

faces it on the W side of the N end.  In a waiting room on the 3rd floor,

there's a pitch black rectangle where a skylight would be.  Stand C.J. on the N

end of the room and look S up into it to see a revolving floppy disk just past

the S edge.)

  http://img388.imageshack.us/img388/4162/00gta1screen3042ti.jpg


  About anything I read had C.J. do that Kangaroo jumping jazz.  Nuh-uh.  Send

C.J. to the lobby at the end of the hall on the 2nd floor of the Jefferson Mo-

tel.  There's a rectangular skylight in the ceiling, and above and beyond the S

edge of it is a save game cassette revolving in a black sky.  You could teleport

C.J. from within the motel onto the ledge by the marker with the GTA SA Control

Center (X.13.c).  One possible set of coordinates: X: 2244.554; Y: -1185.505;

Z: 1040.797; Angle: 75.9.


  Once he's up there, you can see there are five save game cassettes revolving,

each above and beyond one side or another of the surface C.J. can walk on.  If

C.J. drops off the side of of the motel, he falls through Black Hell, I guess

it's called, and ends up near the rest of the motel in scenery that has most of

the graphics missing.  You may want to use the SCM Hook (X.13.ee) with this gim-

mick if you plan to enter the Jetpack code, ROCKETMAN, to have C.J. fly around

the game save cassettes above an interior that's higher than the usual height

limit of the game.  You might otherwise want to use the Parachute code,

AIYPWZQP, to give C.J. a safe landing if he falls.

  Hole in a ceiling of the Prickle Pine safehouse


  On PC. you can enter the high jump code, KANGAROO, send C.J. into the house,

have him turn right, and have him jump through the ceiling onto the solid plate

above the ceiling of the next room.  (It's part of the same interior heaven as

the inside of the safehouse.)  (The PS2 glitch of having C.J. jump from outside

into a window to enter blue hell doesn't work on PC.)

  Ghost World and Blue hell entrances


  What I called "Ghost World" in my "Vice City" walk-through is more commonly

known as "Blue Hell."   (For example, one way there in VC is to fly a helicopter

up into the porch roof of the WK Chariot hotel.  You could see parts of it in

many places with the Rocket Launcher gimmick, which doesn't work in SA.)  (Never

mind it isn't always blue and doesn't seem to have anything Hellish about it).


  The easy thing about leaving the big underground type of Blue Hell is the same

as it's been since "GTA III."  You don't have to find a missing collision file

to leave.  Pick a spot of the regular game world you'd like C.J. to appear in,

then let C.J. sink so far down below that spot that the game puts him above the

ground there.


  If C.J. wears the Jet Pack, he can fly around the ghost world under San An-

dreas and get a view similar to the one you could get of Vice City with the gim-

mick of sending the Sea Sparrow up through the porch roof of the WK Chariot

hotel.  There's an additional concern in the San Andreas version: solid river

and sea beds, which you may need to do some maneuvering to get around.  When you

think C.J. has seen enough of it, send him low enough and he'll appear on the

land above.



  The main game use for Ghost World is to use it to get into Area 69.  Since

some things are there from the start of the game, and especially since some

things are only there from "Black Project" on or afterward, I think Rockstar ex-

pected us to find a way to get inside it using Ghost World.


  Several ways to do that are given below.  Mxyzptlk's spot I call "Ghost wall"

is conveniently close to Area 69, and Alexander's Toys and Vulgari gives C.J. a

way to get to the interior of Area 69 while meant to be restricted to Los San-

tos.


  The gimmick of spawning a vehicle halfway into the blast doors of Area 69 is

an easy, fast way to enter it, too, if requiring a cheat code and more dangerous

other than during a glitch that lets C.J. explore without a wanted level, as he

can use during "Drive-By."  Other than by using the GTA SA Control Center to

teleport C.J. to Area 69 and back, Ghost World/Blue Hell is the only way to have

C.J. go to the interior of Area 69 without using a cheat code.  Otherwise, it's

still something to play with if you think it's fun to explore and like the

change of scenery.

  The Pro-Laps, Alexander's Toys and Vulgari,

       and Mulholland house entrances


  Thanks to The Duff Man's "Secrets FAQ" at Gamefaqs for a couple of ways to get

to Ghost World from Los Santos.

  http://www.gamefaqs.com/pc/924362-grand-theft-auto-san-andreas/faqs/33455
  http://www.thegtadomain.com/sanan/db.php?page=3


  Mangymonki found a way to send C.J. to Ghost World at the Los Santos Pro-Laps.

Have C.J. Jetpack up into the ceiling of the little porch-like ledge that ex-

tends over the front door/yellow entrance marker, then have him go forward.  As

The Duff Man says, "The whole block is pretty messed up, as you can also get in-

to blue hell through Alexander's Toys and Vulgari."


  Alexander's Toys and Vulgari is next door to Pro-Laps to the S, has a bigger

front porch to fly up into, and it doesn't have some invisible solids inside to

get C.J. past as Pro-Laps does.

  

  ArturP found that C.J. can see a little of Ghost World at the site of a Sniper

Rifle in Mulholland.  It's the big light beige house with a dirty pink surround-

ing wall at the SW end of the block that's N of the Pay 'n' Spray.  Have C.J.

Jetpack against the middle of the lower, more enclosed balcony, and he can walk

inside the balcony.  (If you send him further back in and down through the

house, more of the house becomes invisible, but you may have a hard time finding

the way out through the invisible barriers.)


****


  The Las Colinas and Santa Maria Beach entrances


  Punknoodle found several other Los Santos entrances: the 2nd building on the

right side of the road that goes N from the Jefferson Motel has an enclosed

porch, with four open windows with round tops, on the top floor.  The porch

ceiling isn't solid.


  Punknoodle also found a couple entrances in Santa Maria Beach: one at the con-

crete northern part of the ceiling of the southern overpass of the two with the

big "SPORT FISHING BOATING" signs, and the other about a block east of that at

the northern part of the ceiling of the walk beneath the boardwalk west of the

base of the Unique Jump that goes up the steps through the boardwalk.

  Ghost mountain

       The_Raven's Mount Chiliad entrance to Blue Hell


  On the in-game map, there are three small green splotches NW of the brown spot

that represents the peak of Mount Chiliad.  The blue hell entrance is a strip of

ground at the base of the cliff on the S side of the path S of the W end of the

E green splotch.  On the paper map, it's on  the S side of the 2nd crossing of

the path N of the "C" of "CHILIAD."


  In the screenshot at the next link, the entrance is indicated by the white

blob at the base of the cliff beyond C.J.'s head.

  http://img338.imageshack.us/img338/5338/saguide2117ghostmountaiwb3.jpg


  If you have C.J. enter it with his Jetpack and have a hard time finding the

way out for him, just let him drop far enough and he'll appear above land but

without the Jetpack.


****


  Ghost garage entrance


  A Gamefaqs post by Foxracing500r, Nov.4, 2005, gave a way to ghost world.

Have C.J. go to the San Fierro Airport, go right instead of going through the

gate, go around to the parking garage, enter it on the right lane, and go ahead

to the "NO ENTRY KEEP CLEAR" sign that hangs from the ceiling.  C.J. can go

through the 3rd pillar ahead, fall through ghost world, and land on the ship

used for the Export/Import mission.


****


  Ghost cliff entrance


  A Secret posted at Gamefaqs by drewpot2001 gives a different entrance to that

kind of ghost world.  Have C.J. Jetpack against the cliffs, a little higher than

the water level, E of Sobell Rail Yard in Las Venturas.  The Duff Man, in his

Secrets FAQ at the Gamefaqs web site, recommends going N from the Jetmax to

where that section of cliff ends in a ledge, then turning left into the ledge to

send C.J. through the cliff.  C.J. can then make his way N through a little

channel of invisible stuff, and go on a surreal exploration.

  This entrance to Blue Hell is conveniently close to Area 69.  Beside the Las

Venturas Turning Tricks Driving School (for motorcycles) to the W (and S of

Blackfield Stadium) is an opening to a big lot.  The opening is made of two

curved walls.  The Blue Hell entrance is the inside of the straight length of

wall beside the E curved part.  Have C.J., equipped with the Jetpack, go forward

into it then go down.

   Ghost 69

        How to enter the interior of Area 69 from the start of the game


  Mxyzptlk's method


  Mxyzptlk also showed a way to enter or leave the interior of Area 69 using

Blue Hell: the ceiling isn't solid above the grate against the wall by the en-

trance to the shallow W trench.  I made a map of the interior of Area 69 that

shows the W shallow trench and Minigun locations:

  http://img245.imageshack.us/img245/6036/00gta1aarea69xu7.jpg


  I can't currently find Mxyzptlk's video.


  You could also let C.J. drift down from beneath Area 69 till he's teleported

into it.  Likewise, after C.J. leaves Area 69, you can get C.J.above land by

having him descend until he appears above the ground.


  Another way to have C.J. get out of Blue Hell at Hunter Quarry is to send him

up under the crane till you get the prompt to press F or Enter to have him use

the crane.  Press it twice to have him enter and exit the crane and be in the

regular world.


  You can send C.J. to the Ghost World entrance of the interior of Area 69 from

the start of the game with the Ghost World entrance in the porch ceiling of

Alexander's Toys and Vulgari, which is beside the Los Santos Pro-Laps and men-

tioned above, or via the Las Colinas and Santa Maria Beach entrances mentioned

above, with the ROCKETMAN code, and get a Minigun earlier than usual.  Before-

hand, you might use the Never Wanted button of the GTA SA Control Center,

X.13.c.  The Control Center lets you use either the "Auto-Clear Status after in-

serting cheats" button before you use any codes or the "Clear Cheated 'Status'

and 'Count'" button before you save the game.


  hdsgf and zmoonchild's method


  zmoonchild has a video showing another method of getting into and out of the

interior of Area 69.  It uses Ring_of_Fire's method of having Tommy transport

through things while getting onto a motorcycle in VC, except it only works in

this case in SA with a Freeway.


  hdsgf used it to enter Area 69.  Have C.J. park the Freeway along the N side

of the ventilator shaft and Exit to appear underground at the Minigun pickup.

zmoonchild added the way for C.J. to get out.  To have C.J. leave, have him go

up to the north edge of the same shaft and press Enter.  The video by zmoonchild

is at the next link.

  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fa1tb49t1TE
  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=80sigrSkze0


  jedisociety's method


  In jedisociety's video, C.J. uses a Cleo 3 gravity gun to take the doors off.

His link is inactive so here's CompletelyIdiotic386's version of the same thing.

  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ggv9Of2DflQ


****


  This pair of examples lets C.J. enter and leave Area 69 from the exterior

world.

  

  The inside of the air vent entrance: X 245.6275, Y 1862.581, Z 18.73007.


  Over the grate of the air vent entrance: X 245.367, Y 1862.359, Z 21.97531.


  You can use the GTA SA Control Center (X.13.c) to send C.J. there from any-

where in the exterior SA world.  Press the Locations tab, the "Read from GTASA"

button, and write down the coordinates.


  Then put in a set of coordinates for the inside of the air vent entrance and

press Teleport.  After getting the Minigun or such, put in the coordinates you

wrote down and press Teleport.


  C.J. gets a four star wanted level for entering the part of Area 69 shown on

the map of it I made (I.9) (VIII.15).  Once the Badlands and San Fierro are

freely available, C.J. gets five stars that goes down to four once C.J. leaves

that part of Area 69.

  Ring_of_Fire's way to open the door to Ghost World


  Ring_of_Fire, whose glitch finds include ways of using the PCJ600 and Skimmer

to send Tommy to Ghost World in "Vice City," found a way to use a BMX or motor-

cycle to send C.J. to Ghost World in "San Andreas."


  In certain circumstances, you can equip C.J. with a Jetpack and have him push

a bicycle or motorcycle to hold open the doors with entrance markers of safe-

houses and stores, not those for gyms, and go through the entrance box of some

into Ghost World.


  According to Ring_of_Fire, it works:


  - at the Johnson house (and some others) after the screen prompts you to "Go

get the SWAT Tank" in "End of the Line."


  - during "Customs Fast Track."

  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a2ZMInhQBFA


  - during a mission if it has a mission vehicle (like the Black Boxville of the

Burglary mission or the BMX of a Courier mission) which C.J. can put nearby.

  http://gtaforums.com/topic/304538-lmfao-underworldblue-hell-entrances/


  - during a mission with a lead character that has a blue cone pointing down at

them whom you can put nearby.

  Fireman's method to make extra interiors available

     at the start of the game


  Another way to see interiors of the game is described in this message board,

started by Fireman, at GTA Forums:

  http://gtaforums.com/topic/192857-everywhere-unlocked/


  To see the interiors, start a new game.  After the scene in which C.J.'s head

is bumped while he's being put into a Police car, the screen goes black for a

moment.  During the scene in which C.J. is being driven N, you enter the code to

spawn a Jetpack: "ROCKETMAN."  The "Cheat activated" message lingers till the

end of the scene.  C.J. gets "Wasted" and appears by the hospital but without

the text that usually appears when that happens.  Type "ROCKETMAN" again so C.J.

can fly somewhere else, the text appears, then the yellow entrance cones appear

for many of the interiors that you normally only see during missions.


  The interiors include:


  - the Vagos Gang house ("Burning Desire") is on the N side of the block that's

E of the thick N-S line on the map, indicating a RR track with a road on either

side of it, by "JEFFERSON,"

  - Jizzy's Pleasure Domes front and roof entrances ("Jizzy") are under the S

end of the Gant Bridge, 

  - the Sindacco Abattoir ("The Meat Business") is at the NE corner of the block

of the bottom of the "EST" of "WHITEWOOD ESTATES," and 

  - the City Planning Department ("Architectural Espionage") is N of the "L" of

"COME-A-LOT."


  Zero's RC Shop (at the "C" of "GARCIA"), the fast food places, Ammu-Nations,

and clothes stores open, too.


  A special thanks to Fireman for contributing one of the reasons that I like

exploring in GTA's more than in other games.


********


  Note--places that load interior graphics and that are already open without the

glitch:


  - Colonel Fuhrberger's house ("Home Invasion"), which is at the top of the 2nd

block N of the "B" of "EAST BEACH" and on the same road as the "B,"

  - the Atrium ("Just Business"), which has two doors and is on the block W of

the martini glass icon that's N of "LITTLE MEXICO,"

  - the Jefferson Motel ("Reuniting the Families"), which is on the 3rd block N

of "SON" of "JEFFERSON,"

  - "Generator Hall," which has an entrance on the N side of the E tower of the

Sherman Dam by the road that goes over the dam (it's a different entrance than

the one used in "Dam and Blast"),

  - Caligula's Palace, which has two roof doors and a Penthouse door below them

inside ("Breaking the Bank at Caligula's"), and

  - the Sex Shop ("Key to her Heart"), which is on the W side of The Strip E of

"Redsands East.


  On PC, you can't knock open Big Smoke's crack den before "End of the Line."



  C.J. can also enter these places for which the interior graphics are a part of

the outside world:

  

  - the liquor store that's across the street to the E of the N block of down-

town Blueberry, 

  - an abandoned diner on the E side of the biggest block of Palomino Creek,

  - until you've done the mission that uses it--"Small Town Bank" with Catalina,

a bank at the S end of the W side of the block that the Palomino Creek Cluckin'

Bell is on (you can't break down the door later on PC),

  - a shack, with a red glow inside at night, on the NE shore of Fisher's La-

goon,

  - the "Truck Terminal" truck shop on the S block of Blueberry,

  - a shack in Shady Creeks where the path from Angel Pine bends N,

  - Wang Cars, NE across the street from the Xoomer garage save place, on the

border of Doherty and Downtown in San Fierro,

  - Otto's Autos, at the "E" of "EAST" of "ESPLANADE EAST," in Downtown San Fi-

erro,

  - and various barns in Red County and Flint County.

  Rough draft/Go through everything world

       by sum GTA Guy and gamefarter


  Have C.J. get on the ledge above the skylight of the Jefferson Motel (see the

entry above).  Use the in-game Map and put a marker at the Bayside Boat School.

Enter the Jetpack code, ROCKETMAN, and have C.J. Jetpack there.


  (There's a long drop through Black Hell 1st.  The radar shows what direction

the marker is in but nothing else.  Use the in-game map to check your progress.)


  Have C.J. get into the red marker for the school mission.  (You may need to

have him run against the school awhile to find the door on the E side of the

little building.  Look at it in the regular game to see that the door is partly

surrounded by a couple of little low walls that make an opening on the S end.)


  Start any mission and fail it with the "blow up all vehicles" code: ALLCARSGO-

BOOM or CPKTNWT.  C.J. is dropped into the water--have him swim to shore and

give him a Jetpack with which he can explore this world of non-solid partial

graphics.  The graphics are often the blurry kind used for things when seen from

a distance.


  To exit this world without exiting the game, have C.J. fly to the Atrium in

Los Santos--there's a solid section by a door on the side with escalators.  The

Atrium is E of the building that looks like four vertical blue glassy cylinders.

When he exits, he'll be in the regular world.

  Driving a blown-up boat by Ring_of_Fire


  Have C.J. get off a boat, and press F/Enter when he touches the water--C.J.

walks underwater to get back on the boat.  Type "allcarsgoboom" to teleport C.J.

onto the boat (not when C.J. is very close to the boat or C.J. won't teleport--

he'll just be hurt by the explosion).  Type "hesoyam" before the boat explodes

again and C.J. can drive a blown-up boat.  It can be destroyed again with weap-

ons.


  I'll add that it makes a Predator look like the Ghost Missing boat in "GTA

III."

  Ghost land vehicles for travelling into buildings


  You can spawn a vehicle halfway into the Sindacco plastics (counterfeit chip)

factory, S of the "TES" of "WHITEWOOD ESTATES," or the blast doors of Area 69,

to enter it.  Their interiors are rendered with the outside world.


  The only skyscraper in Los Santos with a 3D interior (at the N end of the

block that's E of the one with "NTOS" of "DOWNTOWN LOS SANTOS"),


  the Gasso station with Max pane glass with bullet holes (on the SW block of

Dillimore; the S wall worked for me; the floor is solid except for the hall be-

hind the counter),

fore "End of the Line" on PC),


  are easy to enter that way, too.

the couple of Glendales I see there are just sitting there.)  It's been nick-

named the Ghost Car, and it's useful in providing a ride out of the wilderness.

(I have a ghost Vortex at the beach NE of downtown Bayside Marina, though, and

I've never seen anyone inside the trolley.)

  Ghost upside-down chili vendor


  If C.J. uses a Rocket Launcher to shoot the chili dogs stand at the end of the

Santa Maria pier, it appears upside-down in the water under the pier.  If he

swims into the red shaft of light by it to buy a chili dog, he'll eat it if you

have him climb onto the stand.  The vendor stays nearby in the drowned position

as long as C.J. stays there.  (That was known when somebody posted it, but I

  Once he's in there, you could type "ROCKETMAN" so C.J. gets a Jet Pack and can

look around--the things inside it aren't solid.  You might also use the GTA SA

Control Center, X.13.c, and use coordinates to transport him into and out of it.


  A possible pair of sets of coordinates I came up with are:


  Inside:


  X:     1819.59300

  Y:   -1287.79900

  Z:         13.600860

  Angle:  92.935470


  Outside:


  X:      1839.620000

  Y:    -1280.601000

  Z:          13.545330

  Angle: 128.297200


  (It's not the only 3D building in Los Santos.  For one example, the shopping

center S of the E block of Glen Park has 3D windows, too.)

  Ghost woman in a pawn shop wall


  I found this one:


  If you have C.J. stand NW of the Cluckin' Bell that's S of the Johnson house

and look SW at the yellow pawn shop, you can see a woman, shown from about waist

up, with brown hair and a red dress.  She's in the rectangle-shaped indentation

on the near yellow wall of the shop.  C.J. can get closer to see her if you turn

the draw distance down.

  If you have C.J. go closer to her,she's covered over with a lighter or darker
color (depending on the time of day) than the wall.

  The Rocket Launcher gimmick that let you see through walls in the last two

GTA's doesn't work in "San Andreas," so I don't know how to get a closer look.


  The same yellow building except with a barber shop appears on the SW corner of

the block of "S" of "PLAYA DEL SEVILLE."  You can see the ghost woman on the W

side of the S wall if C.J. is far enough away.  I couldn't get the woman to ap-

pear on the wall of the yellow pawn shop behind the Johnson house.

  A very minor ghost world find


  I'm on a roll here for your ghost excitement--I found this, too.


  Go S from the little loop of road in Mulholland to the T intersection, go S

from the end of the double yellow line in the middle of the street and across

the intersection to the tan stucco house with a dirty white picket fence.  C.J.

can walk into the non-solid grass in the lawn at the SE side of the house till

the grass is over his head.  He gets the best view of Ghost World from the spot

by looking N.

  Ghost Garver Bridge


  Zmoonchild showed a way to get into the underside of the Garver Bridge, which

was also found earlier by pdescobar and others.


  At the SW end of the Garver Bridge, just past the N end of the length of

earthquake damaged highway, have C.J. go up the gray embankment.  If you send

him out along the edge of the bridge while pushing to his right, he'll find the

entrance to the underside of it.  He can go to the other end of the bridge,

where there's a gray wall.

  The Vinewood cemetery


  C.J.'s Mom's grave is at the NE corner of the graves in the Vinewood cemetery,

which is on the N side of the block N of the block with "WOOD" of "VINEWOOD."

The top couple of feet of dirt is missing from the grave, which is covered with

a solid invisible plate with a few tufts of grass on it.  It's given rise to

rumors of her having left the grave to haunt C.J.'s house.  Besides it and a

similar grave (except covered with a dark plate that's easier to see through at

night) a few plots W creating a couple of places for the "camera" during "Sweet

and Kendl," it just looks like the top couple of feet of the hole of each were

filled in with polyurethane topped with a few tufts of artificial grass, so it

doesn't suggest anything to me if I had to think of a real life or movie refer-

ence explanation (ghost dirt?).


  Likewise, some rumors of the place being haunted have arisen from gang graffi-

ti appearing on the cemetery walls from 20:00 to 6:00.  Since Sweet tells C.J.

several gang members are buried there, you might imagine C.J. remembering the

late spirits of gang members killed in gang wars for that.

  I.11  Odds and Ends


  At the start of the game, before all the railroad tracks are free to travel,

you might see the Brown Streak diesel locomotive, which has two cars hitched to

it, or a Freight train with several flat cars.  When one stops at a train sta-

tion, C.J. can jack it and go back and forth over the length of the track in the

legally allowed Los Santos and Red County areas.  The view while driving a train

is the cinematic view, in which you can pick a view with NP4.  There are barri-

ers at either end of the allowed section, and, with the train travelling at a

moderate speed, the game makes the train come to a stop before either of them.


  But if the train goes fast enough, it can go through the barriers and travel

the whole circuit around San Andreas.  When I did this, I had the train go from

the NE Red County end at full acceleration, only releasing acceleration a bit in

SE Los Santos when I could see the train shake a bit (if you floor it long

enough, you can derail the train).  The train went through the barriers in Rich-

man.  C.J. got a four star wanted rating but the law enforcers can't stop the

train.  (You can do it without the wanted rating if you use the "Reuniting the

Families" glitch).  The game made the train stop on the Frederick Bridge before

going through the NE Red County barriers again, though--I don't know if the

train would have gone through them if I'd floored it again.


  (My Dad was a brakeman on the railroad in the 1930's before he became an art-

ist/cartoonist at the Pittsburgh Press for the rest of his life, so that goes

1st.  There aren't any 30's steam engines in "Mafia," so I'll take what I can

get.)


  You can drive into the full size trees that rest on square flat boxes, such as

along the sidewalks of the couple of blocks N of Avispa Country Club in SF, and

knock them over.  C.J. can climb them, and several other kinds of trees, too.

(For more examples, see I.7.aa.)


  C.J., like Tommy Vercetti, can walk up a tree that slopes from the ground--

there's one, a tall pine tree, leaning over the N end of the big pond of Back O'

Beyond.


  You might have already seen this in stunt videos--you can drive a motorcycle

up the cables of the Garver Bridge.  Going down the cable on the other side is

trickier, especially twice.


  The Alhambra is a dance club.  It has flaming torches in front, and is tan by

day but is lit up red and blue at night, along the middle of the W side of the

block with "IDL" of "IDLEWOOD" in Los Santos.  The locations of the other dance

clubs are given at "Life's a Beach" (IV.19).  If you have C.J. go inside one and

walk into the shaft of light, he dances with a lady while you press W,S,A, and

D for up, down, etc., in time with the music at the time each arrow rolls into

a stationary circle in the middle of the screen.  He dances better if you get

it right.  You get a Stat for your highest score.


  The Pig Pen strip club is on the W side of the block that's N of the one with

a martini glass symbol that's W of "LOS FLORES."  C.J. can throw money down by

the strippers for them to do one of those Jane Fonda aerobics moves they do.  He

can also pay $100 when in a shaft of light to go into a room to be seated while

one of several strippers does a private dance for him.  You can use the LMB to

pick from several views to watch it.


  The other strip clubs can be found between the W side of Las Venturas and the

E side of the No Fly Zone, at the NE corner of the block S of the one with "VEN-

TURAS" of "OLD VENTURAS STRIP," and at the SE corner of the block that's E of

the block with "OT" of "COME-A-LOT."

  In the original versions of "San Andreas":


  The Pay 'n' Spray behind Come-a-lot, S Las Venturas, isn't on the in-game map.

On PS2, you can see the inside of it as your vehicle is sprayed and the floor

has a non-solid spot.  On PC, it's non-functional.  To get there, go N from the

S end of the road that divides by the Emerald Isle, take the 3rd right, the 2nd

left, then turn right and look for it on your left.


  There's also an unmarked barber shop in El Quebrados (Spanish for "The Frac-

tion"), in the N area of Tierra Robada, that isn't on the map.

  Apropos of nothing more than that they're GTA-related concerns, and I wanted a

place for the Internet to have them:



  Rebirth: a suggestion for how to make music in a future GTA


  If anyone from Rockstar North reads this, I have a suggestion for an extra

feature for the next GTA.  The lead player could go into a music store and play

with something like ReBirth 2.0.1 by Propellerhead.  It was sold for about $160,

was discontinued and ecame freeware, and now it's used as an app.  The game

player doesn't need to know how to play an instrument to have fun with it, and

Rockstar North could give the lead player and the pedestrians some moves to do

to the rhythm.  It's easier to play with, and more fun, than the dance game, and

it was only a little over 4 MBs.

  http://www.propellerheads.se/rebirth


  A good article about it is here:
  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ReBirth_RB-338


  The article shows a picture of the interface--you can click the picture to see

an enlargement of it.  The article mentions a CD you need to play the full free

version, but you don't need the CD to play the demo version I gave a "freefun-

files" link for above that.


  If you try it, there are two bass synthesizers and two drum machines.  Each of

them has four sets--A to D--of eight buttons each on the left side of the dis-

play.  Any one combination--C6, A4, etc.--represents a one measure pattern of

music.  You don't need good timing--the combo you pick will start playing at the

start of the next four beat measure; if you don't make a selection, the pattern

keeps repeating.  You can change the notes, bend them, adjust the tones, of the

bass lines with the keyboard, etc., displays.  You can pick the percussion in-

struments and adjust their tones on the two bottom displays.  You can choose

from two overall sets--Pattern or Song mode--at the top of the screen.

  How to see the coordinates on the PC "GTA2"


  "GTA2" doesn't have a radar or in-game map.  The walk-throughs for it give the

PC, go to the Gouranga web site, GTA2, Tips and Cheats, and get the "GTA2 Power

  How to get Darkel into "III"

  Darkel is a tramp created for "III" then edited out of the game before it was

released.  His name and voice actor--Bill Fiore--are listed in the credits,

though, and his .dff and .txd files and some others are still in the game.


  It was widely rumored that he led a group of bums, now found among the other

pedestrians and around a Hidden Package in the tunnel behind 8-Ball's Portland

bomb shop, and he sent Claude Speed to do missions that later became the Ram-

pages and the "I Scream, You Scream" mission for El Burro.  Some think Claude

was to meet Darkel in the tunnel.


  Here's an excerpt from an article about the then-upcoming "GTA III" at the

Gouranga! web site (thanks to a Gamefaqs post by quest78 for reminding me about

the article):


      Another mission source is a street urchin named Darkel (according to Game

    Informer, he will be replacing the Kill Frenzies that were in GTA and GTA2).

    Darkel is a rather odd addition who asks you to commit various random acts

    of violence.  One such act mentioned in the IGN preview is to steal an ice

    cream truck, load it with dynamite, and then set off the bomb after attract-

    ing a large enough crowd.  Sounds pretty dark but I'd imagine that its just

    the tip of the iceberg.

    http://www.gouranga.com/nf-info-gta3.htm


  Some rumors have it that he was edited out of the game because he had Claude

create destruction that was somehow similar to the Sept.11, 2001 tragedy which

happened not long before the game was released.  (One rumor has it Darkel had

Claude fly a plane into the tallest skyscraper, the one Donald Love lives in,

and that the fast deletion of Darkel caused the disappearance of Donald Love to

be abrupt and unexplained.)


  This Wikipedia article has some more about it, such as that there weren't any

plane missions to remove:

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Theft_Auto_III#Cuts.2C_changes.2C_and_the_9.2F11_effect


  According to Rockstar, Jan., 2012, the post-9/11 game is "About 1% different.

We removed only one mission that referenced terrorists and changed a few other

cosmetic details-–car details, a couple of ped comments, lines of radio dialogue

etc--the game came out a very short time later.  The biggest change was the US

packaging which remixed the previous packaging into what became our signature

style--because the previous packaging [which was released as the cover of the

game in Europe] was, we felt, too raw after 9/11.  All of the more extreme ru-

mours are amusing but impossible to have been achieved in such a short period of

time.


  "Because we were making a driving and shooting game--even that, as a combina-

tion of core gameplay elements, was very, very radical at the time.  The Dodo

was never meant to be flown very much at all, and it certainly wasn’t grounded

as a result of 9/11--it was just a fun thing that people then went crazy with

when they figured out various bugs that let them fly it!


  "Darkel was just a crazy bum who gave you some crazy missions.  They were re-

moved a few months before the game was done and long before 9/11 because they

just weren’t as good as the rest of the game, and tonally they were a little

odd.  He started with 5 missions and they were slowly all cut.  When only one or

2 were left, they were all removed as the character just didn’t work alongside

the other characters.


  "None of these missions involved blowing up buses of school children although

that is a funny rumor!"

  You can put Darkel into "III" with Notepad.  Un-check the green dot 1st (X.4).

Then click > Edit > Replace, and replace "scum_man" with "darkel" in data\de-

fault.ide and data\pedgrp.dat.


  (Don't try it by renaming their .txd and .dff files with each other's names or

you end up with a white Darkel ghost.  This just changes which .dff and .txd

files the game calls for.)


  You might try using him as your lead character a bit with the "ifeellikedress-

ingup" code.

  How to let Claude leave Portland early


  To let Claude Speed leave Portland the fastest, easiest way, un-check the

green dot (X.4), go into data\handling.cfg--where you might go, anyway, to soup

up the Submission vehicles or the Rumpo (to make "Big N' Veiny" easier)--and

give a vehicle a -1 in column I: percent submerged.  Then, when Claude drives it

off one end of the destroyed Callahan bridge and it falls into the water, it

will appear on the other end of the bridge.  This works to get across the lift

bridge before it's working, too, to get to Shoreside Vale.


  Besides the popular choice--typing "chittychittybb" and having Claude fly a

Police car (esp. a souped up one) over the Callahan Bridge--a couple of methods

I learned from Rusk's PS2 testing work on PC, too:


  If you send Claude W along the N side of the destroyed Callahan Bridge, down

to about 5' (?) from the end of the 2nd straight length of a bent red girder

that projects beyond the end of Claude's side of the bridge, Claude can jump

over to the thick silver-gray pipe of the other side of the bridge.  He can en-

ter the subway at the S end of Staunton and use it to get to Shoreside Vale.


  Another way is to have Claude back the back wheels of the Easy Autos Banshee

out over the water from the concrete tunnel roof in NW Portland, backing out to

about where the middle of the road below is and until the Banshee teeters on the

verge of falling.  Have Claude exit and he lands on the tunnel roof.  Send him W

while aiming the view with the mouse to see the tunnel roof below the blue

stuff.  He has to jump over an obstruction then can go over the middle of the

tunnel roof to Staunton, where some invisible solid stuff won't let him continue

to Shoreside Vale unless he uses the ledge at the side of the roof.  When you

want Claude to appear in either town, have him jump from below the town into the

blue stuff and he'll appear on the land above.


  Thanks to variable veracity verifier Orion_SR for some creative gameplay that

leads him to add that you can send Claude from Staunton to Shoreside by having

him drive a Yankee into the subway in S Staunton, onto the far side of the same

upper platform, and having Claude jump from the Yankee roof through the subway

ceiling onto the roof over the tracks.  Unlike the case in "Liberty City Stor-

ies," the roof nearby is invisible, though, so it isn't easy to navigate even if

you have Claude shoot it to see where the ricochets appear.  Claude can also

make the trip by bailing from a Fire truck he tips into the water over the tun-

nel by NW Staunton (W of the stadium).  The radar doesn't show the tunnel there

in "III," so send him into the tunnel 1st to see where it is on the radar.

  It has an automatic installer now that worked smoothly for me.  The "Vice

  Even more tenuously apropos than the sections above: you can get the Mafia

Swap program at:

  http://mafiascene.com/


  The instructions have you change a file of the game, then you run the program
at the start of the game.  It asks you to enter a number to indicate which mod
you want to use--I enter the number that means I don't have a mod installed.
Then it lets you pick which version of Mafia you want to run.


  My copy of "Mafia" was v.1.2 when I bought it, but it can be run as v1, which
lets you use the +19 trainer, the detour gimmick for the race, and give some of
the mods a try.

  "Mafia Version Changer" I haven't tried it yet, but you might try it if "Ma-
fia Swap 101" hasn't reappeared at mafiascene yet.
