This is another thing that I don't have much experience at. I glanced through the code and this is what I gathered:

This code creates an info icon beside Vercetti Mansion. If you are using the stripped_complete scm to test this mod, then the info pickup will be in front of all the weapons and the pool (directly in front of the starting position). It shows the message 'MISSION PASSED', gives you $100, and clears your wanted level. My code looks like this:

 

Don't forget to make your create_thread

 

004F: create_thread ££Info

 

 

And just above --MISSION 0--, put this

This would show a message if you were driving a SABRE

**This is for an example only.**

You can look through the code and use a message that is already used in the game OR you can make your own messages by editing the GXT file with a GXT Editor. If you're not familiar with editing the GXT file just use Search to see if you can find a tutorial on the subject. Hope this helps some. See ya around.

Thanks again for that and yes I know already how to change GXT with main.scm and all of the beginners stuff.
