To Fly the Train Manually

[DarkJ5]

If this has been found or known, I apologize for bring it up again, if not this is a new fun thing you can try.

 

As always, I have PC version of SA, thus I use Control Center for my trainer. In the game, simply derail the train WITHOUT the Control Center. Then load it up, and off you fly. Please do not ask me how do to fly with Control Center, you should look it up in help file.

 

Enjoy.

I hadn't thought of that. The other flying train gimmick I know is this (thanks to a post by Cleve, at the Tom's Hot Hardware web site, for the tip):

When C.J. follows the reporter's train, three other trains come by in the op-

posite direction. Each of the three are one of these: a Freight with five flat

cars, a Freight with three flat cars and another Freight on the end, a Brown

Streak with a couple of passenger cars. or a Freight with a flat car.

 

The other trains use the outside track, normally not used, of the pair of

tracks that make a loop around San Andreas (with a couple of short stretches of

single track in LV). These trains go to the middle of the sheltered section of

track at Cranberry Station, then veer E, off the track, and fly or go through

things to get back onto the track just a bit S of due E of "CREEK" of "PALOMINO

CREEK."

 

You can have C.J. get off the Sanchez as one of the other trains approach,

use the ROCKETMAN code to have him switch to a Jetpack, then follow or ride

(flat cars are useful for letting C.J. ride through the tunnels) the train on

the unique route it takes.

The train will continue on this route after C.J. fails the mission, but will

disappear if C.J. gets too far away from it. C.J. can't jack the train or go

through things himself by riding on it. To help you have C.J. follow it, you

can put a red dot at the spot where the train gets back on the track on the in-

game Map so the dot appears on the radar.

Yeah glenster I read that in my other thread already, lol. Thank for bring it up again to remind the n00bs, XD.

 

And I believe I posted something before my thread went dead, the actual footage of the train actually flew off the tracks a bit. Btw did you watch that?

 

Here is the vid if you didn't get a chance to watch it

If you don't want to see the whole thing, you can skip to about to the near end to see it.

 

And the vid for flying the train manually with control center if anyone want to see.

Though it might be slow cause that's my friend's site and we tried to host it on j00tube and it kept ph4lin'. I am not sure if he took it off his site but just so you know. Best way is just Save as Target that way Windows Media Player wont' get stuck.

 

If you want to watch the manul fly one just contact me and I'll personally give it to you through my mail.
