Dancing minigame (PC)

Why is this minigame so hard in the PC version, while in the PS2 one is way easier? There isn't a way to make it like the console versione?

I used the Arrow Keys, it was quicker than using the GamePad on the PC.

Use the arrow keys, it's easy to use it than other consoles. I hope you didn't change controls.

I use them, but I think that on PC it is harder.

It can be, IF the game is Stolen (Warez, Torrent, Pirated) OR there is an installion problem.

Have you tried "Compatibility Mode" XP?

The dancing and lowrider mini-games used to be a lot easier on PC, but the timing is all messed up on modern computers. Make sure the frame limiter is on, although I think these game enable the frame limiter anyway.

The reason why dancing is harder on PC is because music is out of sync with the buttons. PS2 game is locked at 30 or 60 fps while PC version locks at 25 fps with frame limiter on. Silentpatch should lock framerate at 30. I don't know if it's only on PC where music and buttons are out of sync or is it the case with all of the later releases of the game including original Xbox and remastered versions.

 

 

When I was playing San Andreas on PC, strangely enough I passed "Life Is A Beach" and "Cesar Vialpando" with frame limiter OFF.

 

So try switching between frame limiter on/off, try to force vsync via video card and download Silent patch.

Get silentpatch


iirc the timing is off due to bad frame limiter and game coding. Also iirc the timing gets even more off by how long your computer has been running in one go

 

solution? get silentpatch as already

Yup, the timing is off on PC versions. You should press the button when the arrow is almost out of the circle. Using this method, once I made 5000 points! In a club, I think there are 3 different songs, each with its own difficulty level.

The game was programed for OLD computers.

Newer CPU have faster speeds which "throws" the timing off from the originals.

 

I noticed it first when Flying, the time it took to earn a "license" (still needing to do the "learning to fly") with the stolen Dodo was half an hour, with my newest it only took 25 minutes. With the stolen Shamal, my original machine took 15 minutes, the new 12 minutes.

So, what are you saying, my CPU is old or new?

I am saying, "The speed of the Central Processing Unit (CPU)  may be  affecting timing in the game."
