Tips & Tricks

Easter Eggs

Change the Moon size

At night, when the Moon is out, shoot it with a sniper rifle to change it into any one of 7 different sizes.

Easter Egg, Easter Egg

Go to the West Island and the helipad on the news station. It has a VCN Mavrick on it. Look east and see a greyish building. Look at the non-realistic window on the left of it. All you have to do is start on the opposite side of the Heliport and run to the other and jump through the window. You will be in a small room with a podium and an easter egg on it, complete with a Happy Easter sign.

GTA III Cameos

Across the street from the Pole Position Club, there is a video game shop where you can see pictures of El Burro, Kenji Maria, and 8-Ball from GTA III.

Glitches

Bike morphing

There is a glitch in the game that makes it possible to morph with a bike. When this glitch has been done, it is impossible to get hit off your bike by another vehicle, or anything else. You can also pull off flips due to this glitch, as well as gain other big insane bonuses.

To activate this glitch, you need to get on a bike at the same time you’re visiting a Clothes Pickup.

Go to a Clothes Pickup.
Park the bike in the middle of the Clothes Pickup, and position it such that the Clothes Pickup is sticking more out than the other side.
Jump on the bike from the shorter end. If done correctly, you should morph. You’ll be standing with the bike in between your legs. When you accelerate, you will be running while the bike moves.

Double Weapon Ammo

Acquire the gun you want to have double ammo for. Then, locate a rampage and take out the gun to begin the event. Do not fire, and merely wait for the timer to run out. When the event fails, your weapon will have twice as much ammo as before.

Drive Any Vehicle During the Dirt Ring

On the day of the dirt ring event, drive the vehicle of your choice to the stadium. Then, drive your way up to in front of the stadium doors where the driver’s door is facing the entrance. Make sure you are close enough to the door where it will barely exit from the driver’s side.

Exit the vehicle, activate the race, and push the enter car button simultaneously. If done correctly when the mission starts, you should be in your vehicle where you are usually standing. You will have unlimited time to play around. Works great with other bikes and the Caddy.

Drive a Blown Up Car

Make sure you know how to quickly blow up vehicles. Walk up to a car with a person in it and steal it.

During the animation in which Tommy pulls the person out and gets in, make sure to input the blow-up all cars cheat.

The car will explode and you will be unhurt, and the car will be flaming. Enter the health cheat to stop the car from burning, and you are now driving around in a 3 wheeled burnt car. This also works in GTA III.

Easy Hotring Race Win

You will need a Mini Gun with lots of ammo to exploit this glitch. When the race begins, drive your Hotring into the black garage that the cars spawn from. Then, drive the car to the back of the garage on the right side right against the wall. This will stop any cars from spawning throughout the race.

Now go back onto the track and take out your Mini Gun. Face the oncoming traffic and use its auto-aim feature to blow up every car that comes your way. When the cars stop coming, go back into the garage. Hop back into your car, and finish the race, opponent free.

Get to Mainland on Game Start

Grab a PCJ, and take the unique jump to get into the film studio. In the back, where the Skimmer would be, there is a Packer. Position the packer facing the wall just to the right of the water tower.

Then drive your PCJ at full speed up the packer’s ramp. You will jump over the wall and land on the bridge on the main island side. Find $1000 for the skumhole shack and you can play all you want without ever starting a mission. (It will take a few tries to get the Packer’s positioning correct.)

Jump Over Fences

When driving a vehicle during gameplay, pull up along the side of a fence or short wall with the driverside against the fence. Press the exit vehicle button and you will be on the other side of the fence. This is a great way to evade the police or gangs.

Lighthouse Glitch

If you are wanted by the cops, go into the lighthouse. There is a glitch that makes the cops unable to come up there.

Lock-on (Assault Rifle)

There is a glitch that allows you to lock on with Rugers and M4 Assault Rifles. First start a fire, possibly by throwing molotov cocktails nearby. Next, run into the fire so you are in flames. Now, press the lock-on button and your Assault Rifle will lock on to your enemies.

More Cars in Garages

To get more cars or bikes in your garages simply park a vehicle so it jams the door (being half in the garage, half out) and drive more vehicles in.

Street Vantage Point

While in the air, turn the car on its side so that the driver’s side points up, then get out. If you did it correctly, the car will float in the air with you standing on it allowing you to shoot people from it. Note: If the tire is shot out, or if the car explodes, the car will fall from the sky.

Unlimited Ammo

Collect over 10,000 ammo to get infinite ammo.

Secrets

Bulletproof Sabre Turbo

Go to the mission where you must race Hillary (The Driver). At the start of the race, back up or turn around and drive for 10 seconds on the clock and make a good roadblock.

Then, wait for him to appear, and use the sniper rifle to shoot him in the head. If you are lucky, the door will be open. If it is locked you can push it to one of your garages and then let the garage close. If the car is already unlocked, drive it to a garage first, get out, and let the garage close to permanently unlock the doors.

Easy Money

Find a coach, and park it next to a bus stop but don’t get out of the vehicle. Every now and then pedestrians will get into the coach and you’ll receive $5 when they enter the vehicle.

You don’t have to take them anywhere and there’s no limit as to how many passengers the coach can hold, so you can go do something else while Tommy earns more money.
