SA, VC, III- PS2 "Sightseeing" mod?

[derWarst]

Hello there,

 

I'm currently working on an art installation which is supposed to involve a modded PS2 Version of either San Andreas, Vice City, or III. 

With all GTA games, I really like how you can jump on cars and have them give you a random tour of the city. This is what I'd like to have in the the mod permanently.

So yeah, it should be more or less "unplayable", spawning the player character on a car once the game begins to then be driven around indefintely. Ideally, there would be an invisible wall around the car, so movements are still possible, but he can neither get off on his own nor be pushed off by anything. I have no idea how the routes of npc cars are determined, but it would also be nice if the "sightseeing tour" over time covered the whole map, so there should be no restricted areas from the get go.

Finally, I guess it would probably be necessary to either involve a god mode or have the player respawn on a car again so the tour doesn't end if he gets shot.

 

I am completely new to GTA modding, so I guess I'll have a lot of learning to do, but if anyone of you could please give me some pointers if this would be possible at all, and how I could get there, I would be very grateful.

 

Thanks a lot
