Some questions

[Tashan]

Please help me with the following questions since googling them still did not give me perfect answer and I am not able to use search engine on this forum for some reason

 

1. Is it possible to date Barabara early or only when Las Venturas is unlocked?? Everytime (during early exploration exploit) when I go to meet her at her ranch she is never seen at any time.

 

2. When Didier sachs actually opens and at which stage of gameplay???

 

3. Best place to perform firefighter mission?

 

4. Is it possible to transport cars using trains, namely, same way as tow trucks??? Reason is trains can carry 2-3 cars and cut my time for imports-exports.

 

5. How to enter into jet mode in hydra (I am having PC version ofgameplay)?? I am not able to fly hydra as it lands up too slow.

 

6. Is it possible to have jetpack early in the game (during los santos beginning)???

well those are some good questions

 

1.yes it is possible i have done it and she only appears on a time u can take further help from the girlfriend dating topic

 

2.it will open when u will reach the almost end of las vanturas missions (yeah spellings might be wrong) to be more precise after 'Saint Marks Bistro' mission

 

3.i find doing them in the country side easy or the desert

 

4.to be honest i'm not sure they might fall of as they do from a packer truck if you park them but if u manage to find a right train and get u're car on it u can keep it steady

 

5.dont worry u're gonna forget that it is slow, when in game press numpad 8 (default) to take it into a plane mode or something and numpad 2 (default) to take it into hover mode (helicopter mode) actually press and hold the two keys

 

6. now it is by a cheat (rocketman) or having a mod installed but in the original it isn't only after black project or green goo mission

 

 

edit:well OrionSR just told the other things or corrected some but what we told u trains cannot carry cars i think i saw a mod for that but not sure

1) It is possible to meet Barbara and gain her keep weapons when busted bonus, but it is not possible to successfully date her until LV is unlocked due to the high wanted level. The girlfriends will not appear during missions so exploits don't help; you will need to meet her under 4-star conditions. Wait a sec... Ranch, do you mean Helena?

 

2) Didier Sachs doesn't open until very late in the game; during the return to LS stage, IIRC.

 

3) I like the Badlands, but North of East Beach and south of Angel Pine are often recommended.

 

4) No, cars cannot be transported via train.

 

5) By default, I believe PgUp and PgDn control the thruster direction on the Hydra - I think, it's been a while.

 

6) It is possible to have a jetpack early in the game by entering a cheat, or modding the game. It's a pretty easy mod; either edit a text IPL file and start a new game, hex edit the save, or make a CLEO script that can add the jetpack where you want it. CLEO doesn't work with v2, and from what I hear modding the Steam/Direct2Drive version is damn near impossible. Either way, if you need help with modding be sure to post the question in the modding forum. Also, you could download a Chain Game save (see the Mission Help forum); they have extra jetpacks added to each city - and a number of other additions to the map.

1. As said you can meet Barbara (the cop) by flying in with a four star want. BUT first do Katy (the Nurse) when you meet Katy first if CJ is killed you get to keep the weapons. A well muscled CJ is needed. Then you can try for Barb with a 50% Fat CJ. You Don't need to actually date them, just meet them to activate the saved weapons.

 

3. I do the firefighting missions on the eastern coast of Los Santos Island, easier. but doing it in the centre of Los Santos (city) is usually just as easy. Remember even if you fail you get to keep the money. I also do it even before the first mission of the game to buy safe houses and make CJ fireproof. Doing the Burglary missions is next. These two sub-missions I consider Prime events before starting the actual mission story lines.

I do Katy next. Barbara isn't all that important, as CJ is more likly to be wasted than busted.

3. I find that the Firefighting missions are tough when you are around a lot of bridges, because the time they give you doesn't reflect the actual time needed to find and on/off ramp to the highway. I go out into the countryside or desert.

 

4. Cars cannot be transported, but if you ever need it you can useally get a motorbike to stay on the train. Just make sure it's on there straight.
