Odd little glitch I found in GTA:VC

[Matrixhasu77]

Well, today out of sheer boredom while playing Vice City I think I managed to stumble across something interesting. Remember that sign in GTA3 that said "You weren't supposed to be able to read this?"

Well, in Vice City, if you fly a helicopter into the building (down the street from the skumole slum save point) on the second big island with the spotlight shining on it after you beat the movie theater's mission and bail out just as you fly through the building, you will fall and land inside of it. You can walk around the building without falling also.

This makes me wonder if Rockstar intended to use the building for an interior but decided not to at the last minute. If I had a digital camera I would take screenshots of the building to help point out what I mean.

Anyone else discover this or other glitches in GTA:VC?

Very interesting glitch. I've never seen or heard about this one. I might try to do it later on tonight if I feel like turning it on. Nice find Matrix!

I had a similar thing happen in GTA3 where I fell into the helipad building behind where the Dodo's parked at the airport - I was fooling around on the stairs and 'fell' inside the building, which had a full frame inside it! I had to kill myself to escape.

Hey, I found this one glitch...

If you go into the Malibu, don't wait for it to load and just keep holding the direction of inside the door, sometimes you'll find yourself in a building with a gray outline of the Malibu, and no floor, although you can walk around...it's like a see through floor, because there is just water there.

I remember finding a You Weren't Supposed To Be Here sign in GTA3. It was behind the walls of that car park in the last Yardie mission.

There ya go Matrixhasu77 this what your on about ..?

Even though i got the chopper inside you can't fly around the chopper ends up exploding..

I wonder how you manged to find this was it an accident .? I bet there is more places like this in Vice city ..

I remeber there is a building on the Western island just directly sout of the dirt track near the curve there and has a corner I ran into and all of a sudden I was stuck in the building with 5 stars. You can shoot throught the wall with a flame thrower and kill everyone. All I had to do to get out was walk into the same corner

 

[Vasco]

So could the police get in at all? Or were you the only one in there?

 

[Matrixhasu77]

Yeah, thats exactly what I was talking about. Thanks, pedrodaman. I guess I was so bored I just thought "hey I wonder what'll happen if I fly at this building..."

 

[pedrodaman]

I thought you might have been getting chased by the flying pigs and lost control of your chopper and crashed into that building to discover that glitch

I know i have many a time ..But never ended up inside one

 

[Matrixhasu77]

Well, I did have two stars at the time.

 

[pedrodaman]

Speaking of glitches i,ve noticed ..When parked outside the Cab business the car sinks into the ground about 1 quarter of the way ..

not just there though i a few place's..Another time i sunk into the stairs that lead onto the loading bay of the print works i had to kill myself to get free..

 

[Vasco]

Sinking? Wow...i'm really sure that's never happened to me before...

I noticed that also... except on the ramps behind Sunshine Autos that lead to the garages and paint shop. It usually happens if I tap X to run fast.

 

[pedrodaman]

If it happens to me again i will grab a shot and post it up ..

Another time while on a killing spree 5 stars ..I broke through the ground after being rammed by the Feds all i could see was the sky ..Had to reload after that one ..weird

Sometimes when i entered the Starfish Island mansion it just used to freeze with the lettering there...:\
