Mystery_Man Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 Hey everyone, hope this is the right forum to post this. I have a saved game which I want to complete (100%). I got 91 hidden packages out of 100 but the other ones are missing. It's not like I don't find them, but I search the places they're suposed to be (and I know those are the right places) and they are just not there. Another interesting thing is that I started a new game and in this one all the missing ones exist. I checked really obvious ones (ones you can tell the exact place where they are) like the one in front of the shop in the mall at vice point. In the new game they exist but in the other they don't. I did not enter a single cheat or anything similar, and reinstalling the game did not help... Now i'm hopeless because I really wanna do the 100% completion. Any advice? Thanks in advance.

Spuds725 Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 They mentioned Reinstall, so I'll guess PC... I honestly don't believe the so called missing package glitch, however 9 missing ones is a bit more harder to believe you can miss all of them... the usual problem is that the person looking for them is looking in the wrong spot for one, its not there and you assume that you already collected that one... If this is the case, then the best way is to start a new game, and immediately collect ALL the packages--- they are all reachable without cheats--- if you can't find one, then that one is likely in another spot in both your saves... i had problems with my last 2 packages when I first played and starting a new game and collecting packages like I described worked-- I was missing the one behind Phils place, and the one behind the Malibu (still remember after 4 years) I urge you to do this in a new game and and you can't find, consult a guide with pics... Or you can simply start an entire new game, and play through again... the 2nd time through you should be able to finish in 20 hours or less (100%).. I completed a save to 100% in 17 hours on my game clock. Perhaps your packages are there and just not "drawn"?? Now, if you are willing, post up your save to the Save N Play and let others take a look at it and see if they can find them... Alternately there are a few PC mods that can "help" you collect packages... One of them by Illspirit.... http://www.illspirit.com/index.php?page=vc_other This one will put lights above any uncollected package. Alternately... This one is actually called a code tool, not a mod... this one will warp you around and collect all the packages for you....Demarest created this one... it is called Shatterstorm... http://tfads.com/vccode/tools/shatterstormv1.zip located on this page.. http://tfads.com/vccode/tools/ it is real easy to use.... directions on the above page... How do I use them? - Save your current game. Backup your /data/main.scm by renaming it to something like mainORIGINAL.scm. Now put the SCM file from the Tool's ZIP into your data folder and rename it to main.scm like the original was. Load up your game. Most code tools will alter your save automatically and prompt you to save. Save your game (preferably into a different slot than it was loaded from). Now rename the SCM to whatever tool it is (or delete it) and rename your backup back to main.scm like it originally was. Load your save you just made and continue playing as you would. Anyway... one or more of the above should work... the mods will at least tell you if they are there or not and solve it once in for all... if you are not willing or able to use the mods, please post up your save and let someone else possibly check... Hope this helps.. Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/270615-missing-hidden-packages/#findComment-4113996 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spuds725 Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Did you try any of the above?? Or post up your save?? Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/270615-missing-hidden-packages/#findComment-4116186 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystery_Man Posted March 31, 2007 Author Share Posted March 31, 2007 Sorry I didn't reply, I was off for a few days. I'll try the above now. Where should I post my save?

HerrieM Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 Another thing you can do is use a little program called GTApackages_v0.2a. When you open this program and pres O (for Open) and select your savegame you get a map showing which Hidden Packages you still miss. As for posting your savegame use GTASnP and i think the best place is here if you want someone to take a look if it really is a glitch/problem and in this topic if you want someone to do them for you.

Spuds725 Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 Herrie linked you to an upload program/hosting that Samutz (a member here) has provided... After you upload the save, post the link that the above page gives you here is fine.... If the packages are missing, I'm sure someone here would be interested in seeing your save... I am... I finally got the PC version (for free from my Brother in law) so can look at it too.... -- So far I don't like the keyboard controls...

Mystery_Man Posted April 1, 2007 Author Share Posted April 1, 2007 (edited) Here. Anyone who likes, take a look at one of my saves with the missing packages. http://gtasnp.com/1811 To help anyone who looks at my save here are some of those that disappeared: - The one in front of the "SALE" store in the NP mall. - The one behind the SpandEx building by the building sites. - The two underneath and on top of the plane at the airport. - The one in the dead-end alleyway in Prawn Island. - The one inside the shop (was that a doughnut shop?) with the big "EXPLODER" sign on it. - The one on the roof of the main airport building. The other two I don't remember right now, thanks for the help. Btw I didn't figure out how to download/use the program Herrie had linked me to... but I think I'll just start the game all over again unless someone finds out something interesting in my save.

HerrieM Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 (edited) I still think that you arte looking at the wrong places. With th package finder i use i got nine missing Hidden Packages, but not on the locations you name. I will have a look in the savegame, but i think you were just searching at the worng places. The red ones are the packages: Edit: I took a peek in your savegame and i found all of the packages. 1. behind the sign at the military base 2. on the airplane. Seen from the big terminal you have two walkingtubes to planes. The plane you want is the last on the right one, on the right side. 3. under the same airplane 4. next to a warehouse. 5. Inside a store where you can buy the tracksuit. 6. In a downwards slope at a square. 7. In the parkinglot next to the Mall in North Point 8. between a tree and a fence 9. at one of those small beachhouses.

Mystery_Man Posted April 2, 2007 Author Share Posted April 2, 2007 This is really weird because I'm totally sure I already took some of those you named, and totally sure I went to some of the places you named and didn't find anything (and I couldn't have already taken them because you found them now)... Well maybe this thing was caused by something in my own computer. Herrie, or anyone else, can you save the game exactly as I uploaded it, in another slot in your computer and let me take a look at it this way?

Justin Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 Herrie, or anyone else, can you save the game exactly as I uploaded it, in another slot in your computer and let me take a look at it this way?Thanks Here you go. The packages exist in my game as well - or at least the one on the east beach did (I didn't check the others). I should think you'll find the packages there upon closer inspection...
