Recently, many people have made several different posts or topics relating to the same thing: modding the Playstation 2 or Xbox version of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. Please read here before you post a topic about modding these versions of San Andreas... ALL POSTS/TOPICS ASKING HOW TO MODIFY THE PLAYSTATION 2 OR XBOX VERSIONS OF SAN ANDREAS WILL BE DELETED WITHOUT NOTICE! After all, it is much better to upgrade your PC to play San Andreas than to waste time burning a new DVD every time you install or remove a mod on the PS2 version. However, if you still insist on modding the PS2 or Xbox version see this topic.

I'm contributing now. I like the way MediaWiki formats things. Yes, only GTA, but remember, you can create or edit articles about anything relating to GTA, and that includes mods, tools, and anything somehow related to GTA. But be sure to check if the article is already created before you start to type out something someone already did!

I know. But on the GTA3 and LCS covers, they helicopters were just there. On the Vice City cover, they the windows became transperent and the helicopter was firing bullets, and it was the same in game. On San Andreas, the helicopter had a serch light, showing the new in game feature of helictopers. Regardless, I'm sure Rockstar will include helicopters. We've all seen that the PSP can "handle it."

Wow. That box art look really cool. I hope that it is an indication of flyable helicopters and such. Maybe it takes place in 1983, as VC was in 1986, and LCS was in 1998, three years before GTA3 in 2001.

I'm straight. Had a girlfriend for about 3 1/2 years but we broke up after I moved. However, Well said, Gerard. In fact, Tony, I'm strongly tempted to warn you for acting like a dick to our members. But I'm afraid that if I do so, you'll become even more stupid. Then again, you base your reasoning on being straight because the GTA main characters are. Do you need a head exam? I'm straight, but not because the GTA characters are. You shouldn't act like the GTA characters, at least not commit the crimes they do. If you are attempting to emulate a video game by carry out the actions in said video game in real life, go see a doctor. You see, Tony, when someone makes fun of someone else because of something like sexual preference, it is usually to cover up one's own insecurities. Either that or they just hate people for being gay. But telling someone they shouldn't play a game because they are gay is not only discriminatory...it's insane. Hell, you can't even spell a GTA character's name correctly. Another post like you've been making and you will be warned.

I think you should start out with a little money. ($4000-10000, depending on the time in which the game takes place) You should work your way up like in previous GTA games. I also think some previous ideas are good, such as a mission changes if you do something major either for or against the gang you're working for. Another thing is unlocking features and areas of the game. I think islands still should have to be unlocked, but some things that were locked at the beginning of SA, should have been unlocked. Clothing stores, clubs, restaurants, gyms, etc...should have been unlocked from the beginning.

I'll get it. I always bring my PSP with me when I go places. Of course I'll buy it.

When did you buy your game? Does it say "Second Edition" at the bottom of the game case? Or did you upgrade to the 1.1 patch?

How do you say that? I love both games. I have both games on two platforms. I play both frequently. As do other people on this forum. Anyway, I'd like to see more helicopters/planes, swimming, more area (like land that wasn't there or available in VC) and the other general SA improvements such as wall cilmbing, bikes, etc... Vice City was sweet, so if they keep a good storyline and fun missions, it'll be an awesome game too.

Broken left arm when I was five.

How about spend $20 and get this capture card so you can record game footage directly from the PS2.

Dude, it would be much easier to get a 1.0 version of SA than mod the PS2 version. To mod the PS2 game you must have the following: 1. Dual-layer DVD-Burner 2. Blank Dual-layer DVD 3. PS2 Modchip 4. Time

You were overclocking the memory by over 100mhz try overclocking by about 30. BTW, Norton sucks, get AVG

Yes, a reformat is a possible solution. Hell, I can run CSS at max settings at 1280x1024 on my 2.6GHz P4 FX 5500 PCI 1GB of RAM and get 30fps at least in the VST. When I play at max settings at 800x600 I get over 80. So if you can, backup and reformat.

CSS? Yeah, that game has been decreasing in fps for a long time. Do your other games perform well? If so, then you don't need to overclock. It's something wrong with CSS. What settings do you play at?

Yeah, a 3.4GHz P4 with an X800 and 2GB of RAM really doesn't need overclocking. But if you still want to, use ATITool It allows you to find the maximum overclocking speeds before your system becomes to hot/unstable. It also displays a complex 3D object rendered in real time and shows you just how much your FPS climbs with different speeds. It also will scan for artifacts in the image. (When you overclock too far, little fragments of random things such as bits of color, blocks, etc...appear in the picture)

Yes, to convert the cars, you either need ZModeler 2 or 3DS Max with Kam's IO Script. ZModeler 2 is extremely cheap, whereas 3DS Max is what Rockstar uses, so the choice is yours. 3DS Max Free Trial ZModeler 2 DFF IO Script (3DS Max ONLY, needed to export to SA format)

Yeah, Rockstar will probably include all of them, or variations of them, except the UFO and flying boxcar.

That guy is one of the random citizens from Half-Life 2.

Thanks, I'll rip the piss out of him too. Look, buddy, you obviously are a well endowed game critic, what with your total disregard for what the game is supposed to be, your awesome way of over-emphasizing graphics, and your lovely racism, you'll have no problem wiping peoples' assess for a living. A prejudice toward cops? How is it prejudice? Because you can shoot them? You might be talking about offensive. Big difference. If anything, the cops in the storyline have a prejudice against the main character. Also, save the slavery bit. Most countries/empires have had slavery at some point in their existence. Um...Los Santos is supposed to represent Los Angeles. OK, now, I know this is going to be hard to understand, but East L.A. is, in real life, pretty close to how it is depicted in the game. If you think that a game showing what it's like is "pathetic," that's your problem. SA isn't demonstrating how pathetic black culture is, it's putting you in the shoes of a gang banger. Also, many black kids whom I go to school with all purchased this game and all love it. Bro, again, you act as if white people can't have gangs either. You ever heard of the mob? What about the Chinese Triads or the Japanese Yakuza? What about the Columbian Cartel? This is what simple minded people such as yourself so blatantly fail to understand: Race doesn't define who can have a gang. Have you ever played the two previous games in the series, Vice City and GTA3? Pretty sure those had gangs. And I'm pretty sure you worked for them. Then again, you made the decision to buy the game. You made the decision to play it. If you didn't like it, that's tough shit because nobody game over to your house, stuck a gun in your face, and made you play. If you think GTA is so bad, why don't you go play something more appropriate for you like this. But, I really don't think you need to play that. You're just on your period. Don't worry, it'll be over soon. Also, don't say African-American. Just don't. And I'll tell you why. "...the label "African American" is the dumbest, most persistently used phrase in our vernacular..."

Yeah, you need a copy of Vice City and the GTA3 audio cd for the full install. t3h download It's 103mb or so, so if you have a 56k modem, um...start before you go to sleep.

Yes. 1. Rename the dff and txd before you put them in gta3.img 2. From the readme copy the carcols.dat line (except the name) and replace the values by elegant 3. open your handling.cfg and copy the new line except the name and change the elegant's values. 4. In carmods.dat copy the new stuff from the readme (except the name) and replace the elegant values

Yeah, you need those things. For a complete tutorial, go here. Click Download to Desktop.

Rockstar has nothing to do with your problem. Are you trying to say you bought the game from Rockstar Warehouse? Just use Add or Remove Programs in Windows to delete the game, then reinstall it using the two discs that the game comes on.
