Ped Riot cheat has messed up my save game.

[Veniathan]

I have looked around the forum without a single solution to this weird bug.

 

Here let me explain, although I'm sure you already know.

 

First of all i got GTA SA today again, the last time I played it was ... God knows when, I wanted my nostalagia back and wanted to enjoy the game.

 

So I did, but I ended up using the Pedestrian Riot cheat that makes them shoot eachother and so forth. What I did NOT know is that I should have NOT saved the game with it, I noticed some missions were kind of messed up but atleast I could go on and finish them.

 

Now I'm stuck in San Fierro, the mission that is called "555 We Tip".

 

Basicaly when the police comes to catch that guy you set up, they kill him on the spot and then the cops start punching eachother to death. The scene is stuck there forever.

 

 

CPU: AMD Phenom II 940 X4 3.2 Ghz

GPU: Nvidia GTX560Ti

RAM: 8GB

Operating System: Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit.

 

I've googled alll around and so far only found outdated links and all that ..I hope you guys can help.

the only site I know of is down: http://hmvartak.110mb.com/fix.htm REPAIR TOOL

 

You'll have to go to one of the other of the eight save slots from before the cheat.

Or, start over. If you want there is a 'saved game' forum: http://www.gtaforums.com/index.php?showtopic=356192 be sure to pick one that matchs your game version.

I will download a save file.

 

Thank you for the help.

I have access to a beta tool that should be able to fix the Pedestrian glitches. If you upload your save to gtasnp.com then I'll run it through the fix and send you a repaired link. It will be a good test of the tool. If it doesn't work then I've got other ways to fix the problem, so you'll be good either way.

Cheating in GTA San Andreas has been proven to have some negative effects on missions and gameplay. The following list contains side effects that may arise by playing the game with cheats. To avoid any of these side effects, it is recommended to use cheat codes only after the game has been completed or on an alternate save file. Enabling the "Health and Armor" cheat during the bike chase of Just Business will fail the mission, destroying the bike, and CJ will eventually be Wasted.

• Enabling the "Health and Armor" cheat during the Lure mission will immediately destroy your doors, making the mission more difficult.

• The Health and Armor cheat does not have an effect on the DA's car on 555 We Tip.

• Enabling the "Lock Wanted Level" cheat will cause a glitch on the Mike Toreno mission stopping the script after the red marker.

• The riot cheats are not reversible, and will be permanent on the save file once activated.

• When the "Pedestrians attack with Golf Clubs" cheat is activated in the game during the Madd Dogg mission will cause Madd Dogg to immediately jump from the roof.

• The Max Fat and Max Muscle cheats make it difficult for you to date Helena Wankstein.

• The Super Punches cheat are not recommended during the Riot events of Los Santos. Since any civilian (including CJ) being punched with this cheat turned on will automatically die.(unless the infinite health cheat is turned on)

• The Recruit Anyone cheats reverse in effect during Gang Wars.

• The missions Burning Desire, Life's a Beach, Photo Opportunity, and Madd Dogg cannot be completed if too many cheats have been used before the mission.

• Putting in too many cheats (approximately 45+) before a cutscene crashes the game.

• If you enable the Jetpack cheat whilst CJ has stepped on a red mission marker, will eventually stop the game, the screen turns black and only the mission title is displayed.

• The Pedestrians Riot cheat makes the mission "Madd Dogg" impossble to complete, as Madd Dogg jumps before you have enough time to park the truck under him, why this happens is is unknown.

• If you enter the Flying Cars cheat, and you drive a car into any body of water, CJ will become stuck in the car and will not be able to get out.

• If you enter the Cars Float Away When Hit cheat too many times, cars will sometimes spawn in midair and fall from the sky. Also, random cars will explode as soon as CJ is within spawning distance of them.

• If you enable the Flying Cars cheat, random NPC cars may suddenly lift off and fly away.

• If the Cars Float On Water cheat is enabled, the Nevada will roll backwards when it spawns.

• Enabling the "Health and Armor" cheat when CJ is shooting out of the car in End of the line will fail the mission.

• Enabling the "Destroy All Cars" when CJ on Vehicle will cause the vehicle to explode, Wasting him.

• Enabling time cheats (Midnight for example), may cause the ingame time to progress and it will never stop unless the cheat is enabled again (causing CJ's health to quickly drain if he gets hungry).

• Enabling Fat and Stamina Cheats will cause CJ not allowed to work out with Any GYM.

 

Be more careful next time
