NOTE #1: IF YOU HAVE TROUBLE WITH RANDOM CRASHES:

New fix thanks to MinnieMan

MinnieMan121249 said:

Yes! It needs a fresh install (can't be assed to start figuring out what mod or file makes it crash) to work.

So install a fresh version (NO CLEO) and DO NOT include the GENRL file in SFX.

Known Bugs

- The player is able to save during some missions (eg: "A Lot like Waldo"), which may ruin your savegame. Finish the mission before saving. Do not save in the middle of a mission, even if the icon is available.

- Certain missions, if failed, can no longer be completed! If you fail a mission, complete it before you save

- Sometimes Animal will get lost on the mission "No Sleep 'Til Bikefest", the player can finish the mission by driving to the destination himself

- Sometimes the event "Poppa Wheelie" will display "mission failed" at the final stage, despite being passed

FAQ

Why is the file so large?

Long story short, it's to make installation easy. Just copy and paste. If I made it smaller you'd have to use third party tools to manually add each new part to the IMG, the Script, vehicles.dat, ect... And who has time for that?

When I run into the bus terminal I teleport at random!

Don't "Run" into a bus stop. The default Run key is the same as the Selection key, so you may be accidentally selecting a destination before you've seen the list. Walk into the bus stop instead.

How come I can't get a haircut/tattoo ect...?

On one hand, the main character already has his own set hairstyle and gang tattoos. On the other hand, such scripts deemed unecessary were removed.

I don't understand the slang "__________"

There are some biker terms used in the game such as the following:

1%er - Biker who lives outlaw lifestyle

DILLIGAF - Do I look life I give a F*ck?

CFFC - Cobras Forever, Forever Cobras

Hog/Bike/Chopper - Motorcycle

Poker Run - When a club rides together to a location to party, often used to either fundraise or recruit

Old Lady - Bikers Wife/Girl

Colors - Bikers club patch(s)

Patch Over - To incorporate an existing club into another, usually through force

My game crashed when I did "__________"

Although the game is stable, it does crash on the rare occasion. It is recommended that you save your game after each mission is complete.

What didn't make the cut?

Outlaws - At one time there was a script which allowed various Outlaws to drive around the state of San Andreas. The player would run into them at random, their location marked with an Iron Cross only when the player was near. The player could kill the outlaw for a bounty, or recruit him as an extra powerful "homie". Sadly the script made savegames unloadable and it was cut.

Flamethrower Tank - Originally the Longbow tank had a flamethrower gun that could be fired forward. The script to make objects in front of the tank burst into flames worked, and the flame particle effect from the barrel sort of worked, but overall it was too buggy so it was cut.

MP3 player - There was going to be an object (replacing the purple dildo) that, when equipped, would allow the player to listen to the radio. I couldn't find a way to make the game think the player was in a vehicle when he was on foot, so it was cut.

Bike Mods - It was an idea to add Bike parts to the mod shops for motorcycle customization, however the work involved was beyond my modeling ability so it was cut (It may still come out someday as an addon).

UFO - The UFO was supposed to be a vehicle the player could steal from some Aliens in a mission for the Epsilon Tract, but it didn't fit the theme of the game and was cut.

Angels Gate/Gambling - At first the player was able to enter/exit the Angels Compound gate while on an Angel bike. There was also gambling in the casinos and at the clubhouse(s), however external scripts seemed to bug the "Venturas Run" mission so they were cut.

Missions - Several missions were cut, and some missions were slimmed down (Ex. "Don't F*ck With Us" originally had a race around Vinewood; Darkel originally asks the player to RC fly a Jumbo Jet into city hall, ect.)

Hell yeah! Downloading right now man, awesome work

March 3, 2012

How have I missed this, looks like fun, downloading...

March 3, 2012

Dude, this looks f*cking epic. Nice job. I'll definitely be downloading it once I get a new PC.

March 3, 2012

Just playing through it now, and if there were cutscenes I would have thought it was official DLC, good job

March 4, 2012

Downloading it now!

March 4, 2012

Sounds like fun! Downloadin' it right now....

March 4, 2012

finally its complete downloading.... thanks !!!!!

March 4, 2012

Wow, It's looks amazing, should test it!

March 4, 2012

My game is not working after the loading??? can you please explain me how i can fix the problem

EDIT: when i click on new game after the loading and begin of the game show in a black screen and it say GTA SA not working also can you make a video about how to install the game

Edited March 4, 2012 by frankenstein12

March 4, 2012

Thank you all for the support!

I really do hope you enjoy the game

@frankenstein12: Might need a little more info, does it freeze when the loading bar is full? Or does it just flip to black as soon as it starts? I'll try to diagnose the problem if you can tell me how far along it gets before crashing, a common issue is with Windows 7 make sure you have permissions set and have replaced all the files.

March 4, 2012

N11111111CE I'll play all missions!! great work!!!

March 4, 2012

For some reason I'm getting random crashes. I'm not quite sure why. One was from the first mission, on the road to the destination and the same with the second mission. I've got rid of the cleo mods, so i'm sure what else it could be.

Same thing here, i even rode in that area before the ride.. yet it still crashes, map problem maybe..?

Although it crashes at random sometimes, the frequency you report is well beyond anything I experienced while playtesting. Some people are reporting smooth gameplay while others seems to be plagued with crashes, I can't account for the discrepancy (you all have the same version of the mod, so it baffles me why some of you are having trouble while others are not ).

To me this is unacceptable. I will be putting together a modding team to debug these issues you've been having. Sorry for any inconvienience, I hope your copy is still playable (and enjoyable). Also, not that this should matter, but I have only tested the mod on SA v 1.0

EDIT: CLEO is the problem, install over fresh copy of SA

Edited August 18, 2012 by Big_Mitch_Baker

March 5, 2012

I have the same version. This mod is pretty awesome still, I'll go through everything again to make sure there are no extra mods from my copied folder.

March 8, 2012

Hi!

First of all, congratulations for the beautifull Mod, looks like awesome

Anyway, the game is not working here....

After the loading screen, the game appears in some seconds and later, closes, and shows de famous crash/error:

"The gta_sa.exe encountered a problem and needs to close."

What can i do ?

(Sorry for the "poor" english)

March 8, 2012

Gunna give this MOD a play, fingers crossed it works fine

EDIT: Downloaded, Installed and ran, Started new game and after the loading it crashed, FIX please

Edited March 8, 2012 by The_Sorrow

March 8, 2012

@RoxDox & The_Sorrow: I am very sorry to hear that

One question, does it crash in the same place every time?

I am creating a debug team to hopefully help combat the issue. I will keep you all posted on any results, thank you for your patience

Well, after the loading, the red mark (to start the mission) appear and the player too, but shows very fast, some two seconds on max.

The name of the mission can be seen, but fast too...

Some suggestion ?

March 9, 2012

Strange, it seems it's crashing for you just as the first cutscene should begin (the openening sphere followed by the title is normal, however the crashing is not).

March 10, 2012

Hmm, is there a way to play this online with 1 other person? My connection is fast enough to host a 1 person server.

March 10, 2012

Strange, it seems it's crashing for you just as the first cutscene should begin (the openening sphere followed by the title is normal, however the crashing is not).

Anyway, i can post a video showing the crash/error report, if necessary...

March 15, 2012

i figured out why the crash occurs ........ it's something like this : u star a new game , it loads with the gta sa sound , the snake williams spawns and HELL ON WHEEL showa on the right lower corner of u'r screen , then { i use windows 7} says "GTA SA HAS STOPPED WORKING" ...... right?? in my pc , it happened because of the SFX folder . first time when i tried hell on wheels, i copied all the folders . then the game crashed. then i tried without the sfx folder ... and now it works smoothly ..... only one problm ...... as i didn't copy sfx folder ,,, there is no sound in the story missions at all javascript:emoticon('') javascript:emoticon('') so now i'm playing gta hell on wheel without any voice-sound javascript:emoticon('')................................

By the way ...... the story and all the other stuffs like new bikes , wepons etc. are great !!!! thanks Mitch javascript:emoticon('')

March 15, 2012

Wait...so the voice actors talk? I would try removing the sfx folder but its one of those things that makes it all complete to me.

OMG, I never would have even considered the SFX as being the problem! Thanks man, I'll put that as a recommendation on the front page. Thanks man, I appreciate it and I also appreciate the kudos on the story and such

*Edit*: Somebody tried the SFX fix and it didn't work for them back to the drawing board lol

ALL OF YOU WITH CRASHING PROBLEMS:

Please try replacing the SFX - Generl file with the Original from the disc (or use one of the backup files found online) and see if it helps...if it DOES help, please msg me and let me know and I'll re-upload the mod without the SFX folder. I really hope it helps, I hate to think any of you are unable to play over something as small as the SFX : /

@Platinum_card: The cutscenes only have subtitles, but the characters during missions sometimes talk (including the player character. He has some funny lines.) If you replace the SFX file with the original you should still be able to play with all the sounds. The only sound I changed was the engine for the War-Horse and Violator (I replaced the Faggio engine with a heavy V-twin engine sound, but it's a small detail you won't notice much if it's missing).

@Vintage88: Not sure to tell ya the truth, I never tested any multiplayer aspects.

Mitch, god damn you. I am a huuuuge motorcycle lover. Tell me if you're working on any sort of project like this in the future. I can model peds, weapons and maybe some bikes if you need them. DOWNLOADING!

EDIT:

* Installed fully at first. Crashed right after it finished loading a new game.

* Replaced GENRL with the original file, still crashes.

I WANNA PLAY THIS! Help!

Edited March 17, 2012 by MinnieMan121249

March 17, 2012

Damn, was really hoping the SFX thing was the final fix. Sorry it didn't work for ya, really could use some help from some coders to find the real issue (ZAZ, where are you!!? lol)

@minnieman: I still can't figure out why it works for some and not for others. Thanks for testing out the SFX fix (even though it didn't work), Let me know if it keeps crashing in the same spot. With any luck I can get this working properly soon, as the people who HAVE been able to play have given it great reviews.

I'll try my best to get it working for you, it's just hard when my copy doesn't have the same problems to fix. (If you know anything about SCM coding, maybe you could try re-adding the external scripts I removed, not sure why that'd work but who knows).

And it's a shame I didn't run into you before working on the project, there were so many bikes and models I wanted to include but didn't have the skill to make (the Sayonara was originally supposed to be the Dodge Tomahawk but nobody would model it for me). If I do decide to make another mod (likely in GTA IV) I'll msg you first

Edited March 17, 2012 by Big_Mitch_Baker

March 17, 2012

I'm installing a fresh GTA SA on my PC, gonna apply the mod without SFX and try to run it.

If it doesn't work, oh well. At least I tried.

EDIT:

Yes! It needs a fresh install (can't be assed to start figuring out what mod or file makes it crash) to work.

So install a fresh version and DO NOT include the GENRL file in SFX.

EDIT 2:

Got to Bikefest. Need to find "Mean Jean" but this chick is nowhere in Bayside. If she is, and I'm just missing something, make it easier for players to locate her. I've been aimlessly roaming around trying to find this bitch.

EDIT 3:

You can save during "A lot like Waldo" and when you do, the acid effect stays on you, corrupting the save file. Now I have to restart the whole game again.

PS: During the mission where you have to parachute onto the town hall building from a plane, make it so it shows the player where you're supposed to land. I got it too late and had to use a cheat to get up there again.
