I played this mod a few months ago and enjoyed it a lot. This is definitely the definitive way to play GTA 3. Unfortunately, I didn't finish it because I accidentally deleted my save game near the end, and my dumbass was too lazy to manually save. I didn't want to replay the last 5 missions again because they do be hard af. But overall, I'd say this is a solid 8/10 mod. Thanks for the amazing work!

Sounds like you didn't install it properly, not much more I can advise than to install it as instructed I'm afraid.

I just cannot get this mod to start no matter what. Tried different versions of vanilla GTA3 but it still crashes on desktop when it load to just screen with Claude just before main menu.


Any error code, address etc? How're you installing it, simple copy/paste as instructed or? Also, which "different versions" are you talking, disc, Steam, R* Launcher etc etc?
I'd like to help, but there's not really a lot to go on here.

There's simply no error code or anything, just lingers for about 10 seconds on the screen then just "goes" to desktop. I tried numerous methods like installing 1.0 and 1.1 versions clean, then copy'ing the audio from disk 2 and then copy'ing the mod either all folders or going one by one. Different compatibility settings but still nothing.

The fact it crashes before even the menu loads is very strange, that needs very few files to function. I'd usually imagine then it could be an audio file issue, but if it's copied as you say, I'm a little stumped.

I cant seem to get past this as I installed GTA 3, copied the audio from second disk into game directory then copypaste'd Mods audio unto audio and it still doesnt work (still takes 4-5 seconds to crash)

Does your install actually work without any of the mod files installed?

Sooo...

Your readme file is saying "Make sure your GTA3 play disc is either removed from the drive or unmounted, else the audio will not work properly and the game may crash", but after removing disc from the drive, the game asks for disc 2 "or press esc to leave the game" crap.

How to get out from this pickle?

Copy the audio folder from disc 2 into the game folder, then remove the disc (and drop the Tightened audio files on top of that) - Apologies if that wasn't clear in the readme!

Problem solved, thank you.

BTW, is there a link to a map or maps with all collectable locations?

Thanks for the site, but I think I'm blind and I don't know how to view the USJ map. 😅

Actually, that's my bad. There's a similar map for TIghtened Vice that has both, this one is just the packages... whoops!

Probably the closest thing I can think of would be this showcase video:

No problem and thanks for the video.

And I must say, after 10 minutes of playing  - this mod is very promising. 😀

Any tips on how to get the car on top of the panlantic construction building to do the USJ? It seems to dont want to go up from the 2set of stairs


Irrc I used a Banshee, the Luigi Kart and the Armoured Patriot in testing. Bit of an angles game, really.

Congrats! And yeah, sadly that turned out to be hardcoded... But you can still find a fixed spawn for it, so not all is lost.

Done with 100% of the mod
Got to say it was really fun, congrats 
I think the hardest part is getting the hidden packages on top of buildings where the collision is just a small box, even tho I got better at driving the dodo, it's still a pain in the ass to land 
Did 100% on vice and now this, can't wait to 100% tightened'reas
Keep up the good job ❤️
