Change vehicle physics:
Note: This procedure involves editing a game file; create a backup copy of the file before proceeding. Use a text editor to edit the "handling.cfg" file in the "grandtheftautovicecity\data\" folder. You can change the volocity of the bikes, cars, boats, helicopters, and airplanes in the game.

Hint: Quick reload:
When you run out of your clip, roll the mouse wheel up, then roll it back down quickly. The weapon you were using will already be reloaded.
Information in this section was contributed by David Sumfin.
Hint: Stoppie bonuses:
It is possible to get up to 150 second stoppie bonuses with this trick. First, get a moped and drive to where there is a long, straight stretch of road. Press [Keypad 9] to lean forward, then use the brake. While you are doing a basic stoppie, release the brake and press the gas (while still holding [Keypad 9]). You should be able to "drive" on your one wheel for a long time. Note: You cannot turn or do anything else.
Information in this section was contributed by X-Rom.
Hint: Wheelie bonuses:
It is possible to get up to 500 second wheelie bonuses with this trick. You will need either need a moped or a dirt bike. With a dirt bike, drive then do a wheelie. When you do the wheelie, you would normally hold the gas and [Keypad 6]. Instead of holding those until you flip over, get a pretty big wheelie then release the gas while still holding [Keypad 6]. If you are traveling at the correct speed, the dirt bike will keep doing a wheelie without the need for your to press the gas. To keep your momentum, tap the brake or the gas. With a moped, you need to listen to the sound. Start to do a wheelie and when you hear scraping sounds on the road, release the gas then quickly press it again before you go down to the ground. Try to keep letting the gas off and pressing the gas until the scrapping sound stops and you should be doing a steady wheelie.

Hint: Full rotation trick spot:
Start at the Hyman Condo. It helps if you have saved the game there with a PCJ 600 in the garage. Drive south very fast, past the V-Rock building. You should see a ramp on the left leading up to the "1412" building (across the street from the Love Fist tour banner). Aim your speeding motorcycle onto the ramp and hit the outer stone edge of it, somewhere between the first and second palm (where there are bushes). Try to aim your motorcycle so that you land in the street. If done correctly, this will launch the motorcycle into the air rotating, and with some practice you will be able to pull off complete rotations to where you can land and continue driving.

Hint: All Hands On Deck mission: Easy completion
Be ready with a sniper rifle before the mission starts with about 50 bullets. Enable the professionaltools or nuttertools as needed to get the weapon. As soon as the mission starts, run to the side of the boat. Zoom with the sniper rifle then select and kill the boat's drivers. This must be done quickly, or the boats will come near and will start shooting. This will stall the boat, as there is no one to drive them. As soon as the second part of the mission starts, sprint over to the front of the boat, then snipe and kill all four drivers (three on the smaller boats and one on the big white boat between them, facing you). Then, go over to the side opposite to the Colonel and shoot the driver of the boat coming from in behind. If done correctly, none of the deck-hands will die in combat and will protect you in case some enemies get aboard. Then, get ready for the helicopters. Snipe and shoot them down. You will need only about six accurate shots per chopper. Note Enable the aspirine and preciousprotection codes before the mission. You will hardly lose any life, but should still take precautions. Also if you miss any driver, shoot at the missed boat until it explodes.

Hint: Guardian Angels mission: Easy completion:
Enable the nuttertools code to get the minigun, then camp out in the corner, taking cover behind the car with flames painted on it. You can blow up each car as it passes by. Beware the one that comes from behind. Get away from the cars and enable the bigbang code to kill the man on the motorcycle. Then, recover the goods.
Information in this section was contributed by Nick L.
Hint: Publicity Tour mission: Easy completion:
To pass this mission easily, keep tapping [F1] repeatedly for the replay effect to hear all of the dialogue without having to worry about the detonation meter. Note: The most effective way to do this is to drive extremely fast on a long stretch of road while also enabling the booooooring code, if desired.
Information in this section was contributed by MWarfare.
Hint: Easy Jury Fury mission:
Upon reaching the first juror's car, do not let him notice you. Go away from the car and enable the bigbang code. The juror's car will explode and you will complete the mission without havig going to the second juror's hotel. Tommy Vercetti will be shown at the second juror's hotel with the car smashed.
Information in this section was contributed by Jayvardhan Sharma.
Hint: Easy Kill The Pizza-Boy mission:
As soon as you get off the phone enable the bigbang code.
Information in this section was contributed by Nick L.
Hint: Easy Stop The Robbery mission:
Kill the man on the sign, then enable bigbang code for all of the men that follow.
Hint: Easy Sir, Yes Sir mission:
Enable the nuttertools code ten to twenty times. Shift to the gun with the most ammunition. Enable the gettherefast code and get in the Sabre Turbo. You can also get in a fast car that a civilian is driving but it takes longer. Get full health and armor. Get directly behind the convoy and aim for one of the lines of soldiers. Run over one line of them then drive for awhile and get out. Turn around and blow them all the soldiers and vehicles with the gun. There is one soldier on top of the tank. When you kill him you can get in the tank. Watch your health meter. When it gets below 50, pause game play and get full health and armor again. Take the tank and drive it into the garage.
Hint: Prostitute on bike:
Get a motorcycle (PCJ) then look for a prostitute. When you find her, pause game play and enable the hopingirl code. The girl will get on the bike, hide in some bushes, and do her thing.

Glitch: Martha's Mug Shot mission: Fast destination:
Jump on top of the Stretch and it will automatically drive you towards your destination when Candy enters it. A better way of doing this is to use the flamethrower weapon on the driver. He will come out of the Stretch. Wait until Candy approaches the vehicle. When she gets inside, quickly enable the fannymagnet code or press [Esc] first before enabling the code. The Stretch will move for a short second and Candy will abruptly come out of the vehicle and start to attract you. Get inside of the vehicle, wait for Candy to enter it again, and you will now have complete control over it. Drive to your destination and you will be there in no time.
Information in this section was contributed by MWarfare.
Glitch: Martha's Mug Shot mission: Martha talks to a ghost:
Do the "Martha's Mug Shot mission: Fast destination" glitch as well as having Candy being attracted to you already. Drive her towards the destination. Once the intermission sequence occurs, she will just close and open the Stretch's door repeatedly. After that, the Stretch with you and Candy inside will respawn on the rooftop with Martha talking to no one. Once the intermission sequence with the "talking" is over, you will fail the mission because you have been spotted by the FBI guards near you. Note: If you want to do this glitch without failing the mission, bail out of the Stretch just before you reach your destination. The intermission sequence will now show Candy trying to run after you, and your Stretch will not respawn on the rooftop with Martha still talking to a ghost.
Information in this section was contributed by MWarfare.
Glitch: Repeated glass shattering:
Completely break off any vehicle's front window with a gun. Then, immediately press [F1] and press it again. As a result, the vehicle's glass will keep shattering every time you press [F1], even when there is no glass to break. Note: This may also work for the glasses in the malls or for the glasses on the street sides.
Information in this section was contributed by MWarfare.
Glitch: Phantom driver:
Stop in front of any car and shoot at the window. As soon as the driver gets out of the car, immediately press [F1] for the replay effect then press the key again. The driver will be paused. You can even go through his body. You will notice that you cannot go into the driver's side of the door, but you can go in the passenger side if there was no one seated in it before. If you go inside the car on the passenger side you will be trapped there. Note: Do this glitch if you want to be hijack proof on the driver's side of the door.
Information in this section was contributed by MWarfare.
Glitch: Look backwards while driving:
Get inside of any vehicle. Hold [Down] to reverse and press the [F1] at the same time. Press [F1] again to exit the replay. Tommy will be looking backwards while driving.
Information in this section was contributed by MWarfare.
Glitch: Use any car for vigilante or taxi missions:
Get into a police car or taxi and hold [Caps Lock]. Get out, go to another car, and release [Caps Lock]. You can now do the vigilante or taxi missions in that car.
Information in this section was contributed by Austro Lim.
Glitch: Vehicle morph:
To morph with vehicles easily, break off any vehicle that has doors on it (Caddy or bike recommended). Park your vehicle directly next to a clothes icon. At this point, align the vehicle in the middle of it. When you come out, immediately enter back in then accelerate or reverse. Another better way of doing this is to enter inside the vehicle while touching the clothes icon at the same time. Note: The basic controls for driving either your morphed bike or car are as follows: [Shift] is accelerate, [Ctrl] to reverse or brake. [Left] and [Right] to steer.
Information in this section was contributed by MWarfare.
Glitch: Ghost vehicles:
Note: The controls for driving your ghost vehicle are similar to the controls for the "Vehicle morph" glitch. To make any vehicle a ghost, go to the pink marker that allows you to do the "Publicity Tour" mission, which is near to the V-Rock studio and the Hyman condo. Align your bike next to the pink marker. Exit your vehicle and as soon as Tommy touches the ground, immediately enter into your vehicle again then try to brake up or accelerate to keep Tommy active on his bike. He must be sitting on it before the screen fades away. When the brief FMV sequence begins and ends, your ghost bike will be parked behind the Love Fist limo once the mission starts. To exit the limo, you must let it explode. This can be done by driving fast and carelessly so that the ghost bike behind you can hit into a wall, but at the same time, do not let the meter rise. You know when you have accomplished this when the limo explodes and you fly out of it as if you were the one on the ghost bike that had got into a collision. Then, find this bike, but hold [Handbrake] while running so that the ghost bike does not go off too far. Note: To ride ghost cars instead, you must have done the above with the bike first. After you have done this and have failed the mission, get a Caddy (or break off any other car that has doors) and do the same trick to the pink marker with that vehicle. You will now have a car that can drive itself. The only way to exit this glitch is to ride in one or all of your ghost vehicles.
Information in this section was contributed by MWarfare.
Glitch: No vehicles spawn in Vice City:
Do the "Phantom Driver" glitch to more drivers inside of vehicles. After doing this, the game will not spawn any more vehicles except for people on the sidewalks and already parked vehicles. This is helpful for completing missions with police chases in them or for doing races at Sunshine Autos. You will also notice that the drivers you have paused will still be there at the same location, including their vehicles. The only way to exit out of this glitch is to enable the bigbang code. Note: To increase the effectiveness of this glitch, pause more drivers inside of vehicles (about five to ten), especially to police cars.
Information in this section was contributed by MWarfare.
Glitch: Unlimited pistol ammunition:
Go to the Ammu-Nation in Downtown. Enter the back room and keep doing the target challenge. You will notice that every time you complete it, your pistol ammunition will go up. Eventually, there will be no ammo or amount left in the clip shown under the pistol. Note: This trick can only be done with the regular pistol, and not the revolver.
Information in this section was contributed by Tyler Heuring.
Glitch: Fixed hood, trunk, and doors:
Find any vehicle and have brass knuckles, a bat, or empty hand. Hit either the hood, trunk, or doors two hits for each piece, them get in the car. Press [F1] for a replay then press [F1] to exit the replay. The doors, hood, and trunk will be perfect but open while driving. If you hit anything three times, it will fall off and when driving fast the front hood will fly off.
Information in this section was contributed by arcade102000.
Glitch: Driver's door stuck open:
Enable the thugstools code, then get in front of anyone's vehicle. Use the Ruger to shoot their head off then get in passenger side. You cannot shut the driver's door unless you punch it off or get out of vehicle.
Information in this section was contributed by arcade102000.
Glitch: Tire tracks in mid-air:
Steal a Packer and back cars up its ramp. Sometimes you will see tire tracks in mid-air. To find a Packer, go onto the tarmac behind the Escobar International Airport Terminal.
Information in this section was contributed by Alex Bainbridge.
Glitch: Fall through game:
Take a bike, preferably the PCJ 600, to Washington Beach. Go to one of the outpost huts and place the bike facing the steps. Move backwards until you have enough distance to get some real speed. Once you have done this, drive towards the steps and try to fly over them. If done correctly, when you hit them you will get the "Greetings From Vice City" screen, then see yourself falling through the ground seemingly to nowhere. However, eventually you will return to the ground in a far away area.
Information in this section was contributed by Cody Murphy.
At the Hyman Memorial Stadium, do the Hotring event. When the race starts, exit your car. You will see that there is a dark squared entrance at the right in which you can go into, where all of the blown-up cars respawn. From where you are now, take a U-turn towards the right edge of this dark entrance and keep going straight forward until you cannot go any further. Keep hugging yourself (do a few jumps as well) towards the seemingly "impassable" dark wall. If you hug at the correct location, you will fall off the entire Hotring race track leading you to the invisibility of Vice City. When you fall off the Hotring race track, find the correct location to fall off a second time but be careful not to fall into the ocean.
Information in this section was contributed by MWarfare.
Glitch: Body morph:
This glitch will allow you to morph with any character or pedestrian in Vice City. First, find a vehicle that has a driver which usually attempts to run after you or fight you (particularly gangs). Get in his way and hijack his car. Once he exits, you will notice that he is walking slowly towards you. Do not let him reach you yet. Drive away from him and make sure that he can still be seen. Break off the doors that are on the passenger's side first, then enter the vehicle quickly. Move your vehicle directly next to him. As soon as he tries to take away your car from the passenger's side, accelerate immediately. Tommy's body has now been morphed with a new person. Note: To exit this glitch, hold [Enter]. Once the vehicle has stopped fully, Tommy will come out of his body abruptly.
Information in this section was contributed by MWarfare.
Glitch: Stand underwater:
Take any sports car with tires that do not become big (for example, the Banshee). Enable the loadsoflittlethings code then drive straight into the water. If you land on a rock, you can get out of the car and stand underwater without getting wasted. If you do not land on a rock ,you will feel as if you are going endlessly down nowhere, but will land far away.
Information in this section was contributed by cadell.
Glitch: Strange point of view:
From the Film Studio's entrance, move directly south. You will see a coastline with some water touching over the grasses. Get further down into this water, but stay close enough so that you do not lose health and drown. Allow yourself to crouch down then switch to the rocket launcher. Right click once to aim. The game will zoom all the way to where the Leaf Links golf course is found, then zoom back to where you are.
Information in this section was contributed by MWarfare.
Glitch: Easy Insane Stunt bonus:
When you get the car that resembles an older Corvette, enable the seaways code. Drive into the ocean, and the car will not float. It will go down under and remain there for awhile. After a few seconds, the car will respwan on the road. The game will give you lots of money, thinking that you did an Insane Stunt.
Information in this section was contributed by Jonathan Tovar.
Glitch: Extended wheelies:
Use the following trick to get wheelies that last as long as desired. It may work with any motorcycle, but was performed with a PCJ 600. Drive down to the Viceport Docks area. :ook for the trucks that look like huge mobile ramps (they are also at the airport). There is one parked in the parking lot two blocks south of the Pay 'N' Spray there if you cannot find any driving around. Drive up the ramp of the truck carefully and slowly until the front wheel goes over the edge and you are balancing with your back wheel still on the ramp. Do not drive forward too far. Then, sit back for as long as desired. When you are ready, start driving forward or backward again. Note: Some rocking back and forth may be needed to get out of that position. If done correctly, the game should give you a very low money bonus (because the distance is usually only about four to seven feet), but your "Longest Wheelie Time" stat should make up for that. Note: This will only work when the bridges are opened, of course.
Information in this section was contributed by supine.
Glitch: Camera and replay of death:
This trick will allow you to pause time by the use of a camera and the replay effect. First, get a camera (from missions like Martha's Mug Shot or elsewhere) and take a picture. As soon as you see the camera light flash, immediately press [F1]. Wait a few seconds then press [F1] again. As a result, everything in the game will be paused except for Tommy, who is moving in slow motion. You can do a lot of extremely strange moves with Tommy. To exit this glitch and return to normal time, either retake a picture the proper way or enable the bigbang code. Note: You can still cycle through your weapons, but if you use them it will take a very long time to make a single shot because you are in slow motion and therefore cannot cycle through your other weapons again.
Information in this section was contributed by MWarfare.
Glitch: Hold unknown weapons:
Hold an ordinary weapon such as guns or the katana. You cannot be empty handed. While holding a weapon, enable the nuttertools code, then press [F1] for the replay effect. Then, immediately press [F1] again. You will be holding an "unknown" weapon. The weapon consists of everything in the scenery, such as trees, buildings, the sky, your surroundings, etc. To hold different "unknown" weapons, keep pressing [F1]. Note: This will cause your game to crash repeatedly exit to Windows. You will also experience unhandled exception error messages.
Information in this section was contributed by MWarfare.
Glitch: Invisible weapon inventory:
Go to any Ammu-nation or hardware store in Vice City. Walk up to the pink marker and immediately throw a grenade. The cashier will be dead and all of the weapons in the inventory list will disappear except for the Body Armor. You can however still buy the invisible weapons. Note: You will not get any stars for doing this.
Information in this section was contributed by MWarfare.
Glitch: Invincibility:
As you open the door of a vehicle, quickly press [Esc] and enable any of the different costume codes of your choice. The result will be you being invincible to any attacks that hit you. Also, if you blow up yourself with a rocket launcher, you will still not lose any health or armor, but you will be just lying down pretending to be dead. To "wake" yourself up, enable the same or another different costume code again. Note: This is glitch is similar to the "Phantom driver" glitch because you are actually paused but in a form where the input devices can control your body; however you will not be able to move around anywhere else. People and objects can also go through your body.
Information in this section was contributed by MWarfare.
Glitch: Hands free walk:
While holding [Up], press [F1] at the same time then press it again. You will be walking without having to press any keys. This is helpful if you are tired of holding the same key. Use the mouse the control the direction in which you are moving. Note: This can be also done in different walking directions with the keyboard -- just make sure you press [F1] while doing so.
Information in this section was contributed by MWarfare.
Glitch: Jumping car:
Get into a police car and press [Caps Lock] to start a Vigilante mission. Start pressing [Shift] repeatedly until the sirens begin. When this happens press [Shift] again repeatedly until you hop into the air. Do not press [Caps Lock] again. Get out of the police car and get into another car. Press [Shift] and you will jump. Note: This does not work all of the time.

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Online Strategy Guide
The Eighties brought us many things: hot pink, legwarmers, cheesy synth pop, big hair and crime. Drug crime. Lots and lots of drug crime. Of course, we don't mind. All the coke lords and shootouts and vendettas make for a lot of quality entertainment. Without 80's crime we wouldn't have had Miami Vice, Scarface, Tango & Cash , and now... Grand Theft Auto: Vice City.
Set firmly in the Reagan Era, Vice City is a continuation of everything you learned from the first game. If you think that by now you're a smooth criminal, think again. Vice City packs a lot of new stuff into the experience: new missions, new weapons, new music, new cars, tons of secret jumps and hidden packages, and, of course, lots and lots of cops to avoid.
Our guide will help you in all aspects of your conquest. We've got a detailed walkthrough with multiple solutions to each mission, a full secrets section, locations of all 100 Hidden Packages and more.
The latest guides for the hottest games are available for IGN Insider subscribers. If you're not an Insider, you'll still want to check out IGN Guides, as we feature plenty of free and sponsored guides as well.

Hint: Reduced Felony
If you want to kill cops without receiving a load of wanted stars, use the main blade of a helicopter and angle it so that the blade hits them. You accrue less "wanted points" this way.
Hint: Instant Health Power-Up
This trick worked in GTA III as well. Drive up next to a hooker and wait. If you're driving a swank enough car, she'll start talking to you. Eventually, she'll get into the car. At this point, drive to a quiet spot and let the magic happen. The car will start rocking, and your "health" will grow from 100 to 125. Your pocketbook will take a hit though. This health-up only works until the next time you die.
Hint: Porno Flyers
After you complete the mission that dumps porn flyers all over the city, the flyers will continue to blow around town as long as you're playing the game.
Hint: Free Money From Parking Meters
Drive over parking meters to empty cash into the streets. It's free money!
Easter Egg: He Sleeps With the Fishes
Get a boat... and go between The "Leaf Links" Golf club and the third island. GO up to the rock and stop your boat get the sniper rifle in the cheat and look down on the rocks you will see a man in boxers with concrete on his feet.
Hint: Enter Golf Course Without Losing Your Weapons
Here is a way to enter the golf course without having your weapons get confiscated. First, take the Comet nearby and drive it next to the fence. Get out and jump onto the car. Jump onto the fence, and then jump onto the second fence at a diagonal angle and drop down past it. You will make it into the golf course with all your weapons. This trick can be useful for the "Four Iron" mission.
Hint: Increase the Tank's Speed
Turn the tank's turrent around so it faces backwards. Now keep firing while accelerating and you will go a lot faster.
Hint: Buy Companies Wisely
An advantage of buying expensive companies rather than smaller ones first is you can get more money in return. For example, if you buy the Print Works for $70,000, you can get $8,000 dollars a day to make buying the other companies easier. Don't forget that you have to complete a certain mission in the Vercitti Missions before you can purchase companies, and you also need to finish the missions related to those companies.
Hint: Beach Ball
Go to Starfish island. When heading west, go into the first house on the right. In the empty pool there is a beach ball. When you run into it, it will bounce. Bounce it on your head and numbers will appear. (The trick is to always be in the shadow of the ball.)
Hint: Scarface Easter Egg
There's a Scarface easter egg in the form of a bloody bathroom and a chainsaw weapon.
Go to the Pay N' Spray at Ocean beach, then go south and take the first left. On your left, you'll see a two story apartment with two sets of stairs on the second floor.
Head up the stairs to the right and you'll see a black doorway. Check out the bathroom in apartment 3c and compare it to the movie.
Hint: "Easter Egg" Easter Egg
Head to the 8-10 VCN Building (the news building) on the west island of Vice City. The news building is by the northern bridge entrance on the west island. You can enter the door of the news building and head up to the roof.
Along with the news chopper, there's an easter egg you can get to. There's another buiding close by, but on an angle with the window closest to the edge of the heliport. Make a sprinting jump through the window and you should see an empty room with an easter egg in the middle.
Hint: See the Village People
Go into the Malibu Club and take a gander at the stage. There, you'll find a reasonable facsimile of the Village People.
Hint: Shoot the Moon
The moon changes size when shot at with the Sniper Rifle, just like in GTA 3.
Hint: Bullet Proof Cars
Admiral. Also fire-proof, explosion-proof, and collision-proof. Activate the Guardian Angels mission (from Colonel Cortez), and kill the Haitian gang members. The Admiral is the white car Diaz drives in the cut-scene. Deliberately fail the mission by killing Diaz, Lance, or letting the Haitian biker escape with Diaz's money.
Once the mission fails, the Admiral's doors will be unlocked and you can drive it back to the garage of your choice. Naturally, you will need to purchase property that has a garage first.

Easter Egg: Find the Easter Egg
Leap off the corner of the VCTV building toward the nearest building to find a hidden room that contains a secret easter egg.
Hint: Rob the Bank
After you've completed the Malibu mission "The Job", you can rob El Banco Corrupto Grande for some easy money. Walk in and turn right up the stairs. This will earn you a four star wanted level. Walk into the manager's office to get 1/3 of the cash. The rest is in the room with the elevator, on the right side. Then jump off the balcony and run out. To shake the cops, you can turn left to the nearby Pay N' Spray. It's not much, but it's easy cash.
Hint: Ammo Trick
If you pick up the regular shotgun at your hidout (from starfish island) and then go out and find the spas or benelli shotgun out in the city, your 50 shells from the regular shotgun will be transfered to the new upgraded gun you picked up. If you were to pick up the upgraded shotgun without doing this you would only recieve 20 or so shells but this way you get roughly 70. This trick works with other guns also that share simular bullets.
hey u play with cops after full wanted level enjoy.
