DP/BP/FP/EP Tampa

[MC.]

I'm having a problem flipping over the DP/BP/FP/EP Tampa, using the Forklift. For some reason can't flip over. Can someone please help me solve this problem? Here's what it says in the System_Error's guide:

 

Start the mission, and drive with Smoke over to Emmet's. When you are told to

shoot the glass bottle, get in Smoke's Glendale. Go over to the Ganton garage,

take out the forklift, and park the Glendale inside sideways. Leave a little

room at the back. Now put the forklift back in the garage. Here is a diagram

of what it should look like (not drawn to scale).

Now, go back and get the Tampa. Push it all the way to the Ganton garage. When

you arrive, take out the forklift, and push the Tampa inside, facing sideways.

Here's a diagram of what it should look like now (not drawn to scale).

Finally, get in the Forklift, and approach the Tampa. You need to be nearly

forming a T shape in order to get it to work. Raise the lift, and hopefully,

you'll flip the Tampa. Once you do so, get out of the Forklift and run up to

the back wall of the garage. Not joking. The cars will explode in your face,

and you'll fail the mission for ruining Smoke's ride. Assuming Carl wasn't

killed in the explosion, allow the doors to close on the two cars after the

"Mission Failed" text is on your screen. Allow it to reopen, and there you go!

 

To get the Glendale out, come back when there are not any more flames. Get the

Tampa out. Park it somewhere safe. Next, get the Glendale out. Finally, get in

the Tampa and park it inside.

 

I did exactly what the guide says but it's not flipping over. I don't want to do the other method cause it requires cheats.

Well that's the only way you can get the Tampa. Why not try flipping the Tampa in the garage alone without Smoke's car? The Glendale car can be obstructive preventing the Tampa from flipping over. You can just then destroy the Glendale outside of the garage.

 

If your problem is more on your skills in flipping over a car using a forklift, maybe it's best to fail the mission first even without getting the Tampa DP/BP/EP/FP. Practice then your forklift skills flipping over that car until you get the hang of it

DP/BP/EP/FP

 

what does it mean? am i being stupid?

[GTA_Loco]

DP = Damageproof. Its physical structure can't be damaged/dented or its health reduced by constant and severe physical punishment like crashing.

BP = Bulletproof. Immune from destruction from all types of bullet-based weapons, from a pistol to a minigun.

EP = Explosionproof. Immune from destruction from all types of explosive weapons or all types of explosion. Can't be destroyed by RPG, Cannon fire from a Rhino, grenades, exploding vehicles, etc.

FP = Fireproof. Fire retardant. Can't be destroyed by any source of fire.

 

A vehicle that has these special properties is one you can almost "indestructible".

I tried practicing the Forklift skills a few days ago and I finally got it. I finally got the DP/BP/FP/EP Tampa and I finally customized it. Thank you so much for your help.

I don't think that Monster is armored in any way. The Glendale is, and you have to use a Towtruck to tow it to your garage to unlock it.

 

For more of these armored vehicles including the Tampa, check System Error's Guide.

If the above is too hard, try this. Before you are prompted to blow it up,

simply push it into your garage. After you get it in there, you'll have to end

the mission somehow. But there's a small catch. You have to blow up Big Smoke's

car and the Tampa at the same time, otherwise the Tampa will lose its special

abilites! Enter the blow up all cars cheat. (ALLCARSGOBOOM) When the garage door closes on the

corpse of a blackened Tampa, allow it to re-open to be greeted by a nearly

indestructable work of art!

 

NOTE: Into modding cars? Then this is probably one of your best options in

terms of BP/FP/EP/DP ones.

 

NOTE: Get yourself a Tow Truck. Be careful about storing these in garages

though, as they like to vanish. In doing so, they often knock out the

proofings of other vehicles.

Here is the Bible on the topic...Hasn't been updated in a while and it may not link directly from here very well because it is game faqs http://db.gamefaqs.com/console/ps2/file/gr...bulletproof.txt]http://db.gamefaqs.com/console/ps2/file/gr...bulletproof.txt

 

Copy and paste use the link.

There are plenty more "Special" vehicles of various sorts and yes they are all genuine...There are even a few things in this forum that may help in addition.
