ninemillimeter Posted December 6, 2003 Share Posted December 6, 2003 (edited) MISSION NAME : THE DRIVER hey all... ok this is really buggin me!!! I dont know the mission name but it's when your owning the club, after you break the dude out of jail and then do the shooting mission... now I need a fast driver but I have to race him... now if I follow just behind him everything is fine and he wins the race... if I go on to win he seems to just dissapeer about half way or somthing and I get classed as 1st place, then for the rest of the race nothing happens untill I pass the finish line... thats when it says he died and I failed the mission and then the game goes black and freezes!... but there is some background sound of a car engine... I cant get around this i've tried a few ways of doing it but with no hope... please help!!!

Xyzar Posted December 6, 2003 Share Posted December 6, 2003 has been aksed several times... there are basically two things you can do, you can either try hard and just win the race (drive fast, practice a lot and you'll succeed), or modify the handling.cfg making the Sentinel very fast. but that's cheating in my opinion... i just won the race myself Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/120278-car-mission-with-that-weird-fat-guy-huge-error/#findComment-1383808 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demarest Posted December 6, 2003 Share Posted December 6, 2003 Yes he did. If you win, then you pass the mission. If you fail and have to play it over and over, you'd know the mission name. At least that's how it works when you buy the game...

ninemillimeter Posted December 7, 2003 Author Share Posted December 7, 2003 maby I didnt make myself clear I donno... there is a glitch in the game because it happens to another guys copy I know, both were bought in the shop when they were first out for the PC, not no waraz stuff... here's my situation... If I win the race - I automatically loose (says he died) If I loose the race - Well I just loose, lol ^^ ya see there is no way around it... please help me someone Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/120278-car-mission-with-that-weird-fat-guy-huge-error/#findComment-1384350 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natedogg. Posted December 7, 2003 Share Posted December 7, 2003 Is that even possible?? I am sitting here questioning myself on how you could still lose even though you win against Hilary, if that's what the mission deals with. Isn't it the race against Hilary it's called "The Driver". It may be a glitch but I have never heard of anything like that, how could he all of a sudden die even though it's like impossible to kill him in the mission? Just explain yourself a bit better and I might understand.

ninemillimeter Posted December 7, 2003 Author Share Posted December 7, 2003 (edited) haha my god... I explained in the first post but it's the mission "the driver" yea... Ok there is some f*cked up gitch in the game it's happened to everyone i've spoke to on the PC version... about half way through the race I pass him easily and go on to win the race, but... I cant because as soon as I pass the finish line it automatically fails me and says he died! I have no idea why this happens but it does but if I stay close behind him so he's in my viewing distance, he can pass the finish line and he wins... if he goes speeding ahead of me he still dies somewhere, I dont know where but the places switches me to 1st near the end... maby his car blows up or somthing I have no idea...

Demarest Posted December 7, 2003 Share Posted December 7, 2003 Clam down. I know enough about the code to know this just isn't possible. So if you're experiencing this, something's wrong with your game. My first instinct would be warez. If you insist that it isn't, then it's time to contact R* support and tell them about it.

ninemillimeter Posted December 7, 2003 Author Share Posted December 7, 2003 I was calm, lol, readin back seems like i'm angry, soz... well mine deffently isn't warez cause it cost me £20 from ebay and it was sealed brand new... I found out were its all f*cked... he goes over this hill and gets stuck half way into it... but the guy keeps tryin to drive and after like 20 seconds he finally blows up, makin me first and losing me the race... strange though, not sure how to sort it out Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/120278-car-mission-with-that-weird-fat-guy-huge-error/#findComment-1385373 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xyzar Posted December 7, 2003 Share Posted December 7, 2003 (edited) buying the game doesn't make a difference... an illegal copy is the same... it IS possible to just win the race but you have to be fast... very fast... then you'll be far enough ahead of him (don't look back, it seems to help), you'll finish and win.. it takes practise.. (took me days to finish ) Edited December 7, 2003 by Xyzar Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/120278-car-mission-with-that-weird-fat-guy-huge-error/#findComment-1385420 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cartoon Corpse Posted December 8, 2003 Share Posted December 8, 2003 (edited) yes i think the key is remaining clam. when you're clam, you follow the guy closely, cutting some corners a little till you get to the bribe across from the pizza place, cut through to next target (hillary goes all the way to intersection) bam your done in 30 tries or less. lol. *edit* oh forgot to mention. Part of my early strategy was to clear my stars, then lie in wait for hillary along the route to shoot out his tires, i always ended up killing him (mission failed). never had him die on his own though. the clam approach worked for me.

Xyzar Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 it's possible to raise your wanted level and Hilary'll drive over a spike strip i've never done it though... just drive fast Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/120278-car-mission-with-that-weird-fat-guy-huge-error/#findComment-1389235 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opius Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 Actually, sometimes the COL for the bridge leading to the small island where you get Avery's missions doesn't load, and obviously he falls through. Don't know why it would wait till the end though.
