Yup, many many places to fall through. You can probably get a bunch of them looking through the glitchs/bugs thread.

Easiest one I know to discribe the location of is in LV. There's an unmarked Pay 'n Spray east of the Camel's Toe somewhere; maybe directly behind it, I don't remember. It's on the north side of an east-west road though. The place where the garage door opens/closes doesn't have any ground, and you can fall through.
There's another at the vertex of some freeway interchange in nortwest Red County, but I don't remember which (one of the two loopy ones).

There's also the 'black hell'. If you fly an airplane far out to sea and land in the water, the plane will eventually sink through the ocean and through some black space for a few seconds before respawning you back on land*. You need the infinite lung capacity cheat to survive the sinking though (GameFAQs!).

*I tried this several times in a Shamal, and it spawned me on foot. I tried again later with a Nevada, and it brought the plane along too.

Money check: One digit short. I'm just a poor, destitute 120 millionare. :D
 
I'm looking forward to the PSP GTA even more now. I put gamespots gameplay footage into my PSP and it looks great (even if the footage is fuzzy, you get a feel for it). :D
 
Has anyone got any tips on how to complete the 'Cobra run' on the Chiliad Challenge? The best i can do is 2nd in about 1:50 i think....
Its the first bit i really mess up on where you have to ride on that raised platform.

If you`re just trying to win it & not set a record, just try to keep up with the leaders. Then when you reach the bottom, don`t go through the last checkpoint. Hop off the bike, and pick those bastards off using the sniper rifle. :sly: Then go through the final checkpoint for the win! :sly: The Chilliad Challenge thing blows like nothing I`ve ever seen before. :yuck:

Just try to keep up with the AI/competitors. And in the end cycle as fast as you can. I find them pretty easy..but they suck hard.

On the GTA-Sanandreas.com site's checklist it doesnt say that Valet Missions (Level 5)
is not required for 100%.
They are. Does mine say they aren't required or does the GTA-SanAndreas.com checklist say they aren't required?

GTA-SA.com says that it isn't need to be done but your list says that it has to be done for 100%.
 
It does have to be done, I'm almost certain. All side-missions have to be done, and that's just one of them. Plus, it generates money, and all assets must be completed for 100%.

Goes to show you that this GTA Forum is more reliable. :P

So do I have to do the robbery missions too then?

Maybe it's more reliable but it's pretty dead :P

Christ, were you around when San Andreas was first released? Sheesh!

Yes. I was around back then. But then it got boring and stopped playing it for a while. I forgot alot under that period. Then around may-june I did a restart without any cheats. I came around 56% and stopped playing again. It was not a long time ago I started playing this wonderful game again. So that's why I ask so much...;)
 
No, you don't have to do the robbery missions. I've never touched them outside that one mission. (Except once, when I found one of those trucks parked in SF. But.. you can't do those missions in SF, so it wants you to go all the way back to LS.)
I'm almost certan the valet missions are required though.
 
You don't? I was sure you had to do them. In fact, in the San Andreas Guide I have, it tells me I have to do them.

Thanks for letting me know, though.
 
Well I'd done the Valet parking mission this morning. I'm one step closer to 100%. And thanks letting me know that I don't have to do the robbery missions.
 
The 100% list I referred to does state the 5 valet missions under "Complete Level 5 Of Valet Parking"

That list is 100% correct, thanks for pointing me to your list as well, but I used that one and everything was fine.

The robbery missions is not on that list, and I got 100% as well now without it.
 
I went and stickied the 100% Checklist to the top of the GTA Forum page. I thought it might be useful being stickied there for any member who needs to use it. Easy access now.

I saw one of the very first rule were not to discuss DRIV3R. So I decided to say it for no apparent reason.
