1.0 Introduction

Right then, with that out the way let me introduce myself. I am
Psychotic34(no not literally, except on Vice City...) and this is
my first FAQ/Walkthrough, yay! Anyway, welcome to Vice City, nice
place full of criminals. It's pretty similar to GTA3 but there are
some differences, as I'm sure you'll discover. I am aiming to make
this a definitive guide for Vice City, and with 0.8 I feel as though I
am nearly there. I will try to have an informal writing style(unlike that
last sentence) but I don't know why I think it's a good idea. Oh well,
maybe I'll find out one day.In case you are wondering, I'm from the UK
(like Kent Paul, only I don't talk like him!)

If you want to put this guide on your site, E-mail me, I probably let
you, but you have to tell me first otherwise it's a breach of copyright
and you don't want to get sued when you could have just asked, do you?
If you see it on any other site, then E-mail me.

psychotic_34@hotmail.com

*If you want to E-mail me any:
- Alternate Mission Strategies
- Challenges/Fun things to do
- Good Places to fight the Police
- Custom Missions

I would be very happy to recieve them and will try to include as many
as I can Just have the title of your email "Vice City" or something
similar.I will try to reply to every E-mail, and I have so far but
don't expect me to reply if I get 100 e-mails or something. I have
included every single Submission so far, so you probably won't get
turned down, unless you say something like "I discovered an F-22/How
to Swim" etc. Also please include the name you would like to be credited
as, because the fun thing about submitting stuff is having your name in
a guide!*

No Chain-Mails, Viruses etc please!(Not that anyone listens, I get loads
of Viruses every day. Well, the most I've had in one day is 3, but I
think all the ones I've been sent is from a worm)
Or indeed crazy E-mails about me stealing certain items, you know who
you are.......

1.1 Version History

0.1 11/16/02 The first version, added most things
102 kb

0.5 11/19/02 Added Car Stats, more secrets. Also more user-submitted
things, and made it more friendly to people with small monitors. Gang
and character profiles, Vehicle Missions, Sunshine Autos.
122kb

0.6 11/23/02 Added:Radio Stations, Most Unique Jumps, Robbable Stores,
Good places to fight the Police and User Submitted Keep Your Friends
Close Strategy
142kb

0.8 11/30/02 Man this was a big (and tiring) update. I finally completed
the Unique Jumps Section, I started(and finished) the rampages section,
added a lot more secrets, glitches section, challenges, fun things, good
places to fight the Police and Alternate Mission Strategies for a couple
of missions. Oh and I did 20 Hidden Package Locations, Whew! The things
I do for you people
200kb

1.0 12/06/02 Well, I guess this is the first full version, as it contains
everything I planned the guide would, now that I have finally done all
of the hidden package locations. There is also many more secrets, fun
things, challenges, places to fight the cops etc. Also, my friend had
the idea of adding custom missions(Thanks Ryan!) so I am going to add
some!
244kb

1.1 12/08/02 Overhauled the vehicles section, got E-Mailed 50 million times
by Iwan Best(maybe not THAT much) so added a great many things to the secrets
section. Doesn't seem like much has been added in terms of file size, but
trust me, it has! I was also E-mailed by many other people, so look at The
Job, Glitches, Secrets - other, fun things to do, custom missions. This
update was kinda neccessary as I have been E-mailed so many times this week,
and a lot of my E-mails have been about Glitches, hmmmm. There is an
outside possibilty that this will be the last but two update, but that is
merely a possibility, I guess I could leave it open to adjustment permanently
and never have a Final version. The next version will have more descriptive
measures on how to finish the checkpoint missions, and then the one after
that will just be a massive user-submitted compilation. I will give about 3
weeks for people to E-mail me their submissions, and I will add a great many
Challenges, Fun Things, Fun Places to fight the Police and Custom Missions.
But I guess I will leave it open for editing, as I'm sure that
a) I will get many E-mails anyway
b) some kind of new secret like the Ghost Town(But NOT the Ghost Town I
hasten to add)
Anyway, that's my two cents, but no-one reads this bit anyway, do they!?
269kb (25kb more, it ain't that bad I guess)

1.3 The Law

When you do something naughty, and especially if a cop is there
when you do it, your wanted level will go up. This is measured in a
series of stars:

One Star
What Can I expect?:Cops will just come up to you and beat you up
with nightsticks, nothing major
How do I get rid of em?:Run like hell, change outfit, use a police
bribe or use a respray shop
How do I deal with them?:However you like! these guys can be taken
out in any way

Two Stars
What Can I Expect?:Two cops in each car pull up and shoot at you.
Any Cop on the streets will now shoot and not use the nightstick
How Do I get rid of em?:Run like hell, change outfit, 2 police
bribes or use a respray shop
How do I deal with them?:Shoot them, Shoot them ALL!

Three Stars
What Can I Expect?:Two cops in each car pull up and shoot at you. Any
Cop on the streets will now shoot and not use the nightstick, The Cops
Cops will now use Road Blocks and deploy stingers to burst your tires
(if you're in a car that is), A helicopter will come and shoot at you,
heavily armed men will slide down ropes from the helicopter and shoot
you, and undercover cops pull up in Cheetahs.
How Do I get rid of em?: Respray shop is your only way out now,
unless you are lucky enough to get 3 police bribes
How do I deal with them?:OK, Shoot all cops(preferably with a Colt
Python or a Shotgun), Drive around roadblocks and stingers by going on
the pavement, shoot those men that come from the helicopter before
they hit the ground, and shoot the helicopter with a Rocket Launcher
or run back a little bit so you cansee it's windscreen, and fire with
the PSG-1 or Sniper Rifle into there, or try for a lucky rotor blade
shot.

Four Stars
What Can I Expect?:Two cops in each car pull up and shoot at you. Any
Cop on the streets will now shoot and not use the nightstick, The
SWAT teams will now use Road Blocks and deploy stingers to burst your
tires(if you're in a car that is), A helicopter will come and shoot at
you, heavily armed men will slide down ropes from the helicopter and
shoot you, and undercover cops pull up in Cheetahs.Oh and very
"friendly" SWAT Teams will show up in their Enforcer vans.
How Do I get rid of em?:Respray.4 police Bribes
How do I deal with them?:OK, Shoot all cops(preferably with a Colt
Python or a Shotgun), Drive around roadblocks and stingers by going on
the pavement, shoot those men that come from the helicopter before they
hit the ground, and shoot the helicopter with a Rocket Launcher, or run
back a little bit so you cansee it's windscreen, and fire with the
PSG-1 or Sniper Rifle into there, or try for a lucky rotor blade shot.
As for the SWAT teams, Use a gun that packs a punch.

Five Stars
What Can I Expect?:Any Cop on the streets will now shoot and not use the
nightstick,The FBI will now use Road Blocks and deploy stingers to burst
your tires(if you're in a car that is), A helicopter will come and shoot
at you, heavily armed men will slide down ropes from the helicopter and
shoot you, any of the above which is still there will still be after you,
and FBI teams armed with MP5s will show up in FBI Ranchers
How Do I get rid of em?:Get to a respray shop, FAST or 5 police
bribes.
How do I deal with them?:OK, Shoot all cops(preferably with a Colt Python
or a Shotgun), Drive around roadblocks and stingers by going on the
pavement, shoot those men that come from the helicopter before they hit
the ground, and shoot the helicopter with a Rocket Launcher, or run back
a little bit so you cansee it's windscreen, and fire with the PSG-1 or
Sniper Rifle into there, or try for a lucky rotor blade shot.As for the
FBI, I'd use something that can take them out QUICKLY, like a Flame
Thrower, but you'd do well to blow up their cars before they get out.

Six Stars
What Can I Expect?:Any Cop on the streets will now shoot and not use the
nightstick, The Army will now use Road Blocks and deploy stingers to
burst your tires(if you're in a car that is), A helicopter will come and
shoot at you, heavily armed men will slide down ropes from the helicopter
and shoot you, any of the above which is still there will still be after
you, and The Army show up in Rhino Tanks or Barracks OLs.
How Do I get rid of em?:Respray, 6 police bribes
How do I deal with them?:OK, Shoot all cops(preferably with a Colt Python
or a Shotgun), Drive around roadblocks and stingers by going on the
pavement, shoot those men that come from the helicopter before they hit
the ground, and shoot the helicopter with a Rocket Launcher, or run back
a little bit so you cansee it's windscreen, and fire with the PSG-1 or
Sniper Rifle into there, or try for a lucky rotor blade shot.The Army?
Colt Python and SPAS-12 Shotgun do well, but blowing up their vehicles before
they can get out is good, but with one problem:The tanks will survive
anything you have to throw at it, then again, that is fairly inaccurate
as you can use the FlameTHROWer and you can THROW Molotov Cocktails at
them. They are the ONLY things that will hurt a Tank, yes even Rocket
Launchers and Mini-Guns don't affect this metal monstrosity.

**************************************************************************

1.4 Powerups
