Vice City

Postby Armistice » Sat Jun 21, 2003 11:42 am

anyone got any idea how to get planes to stay up in the air on this one? stuck on 2 missions - one with a seaplane that won't get off the water and one with an rc plane that nose dives into the bay at the first opportunity.

eternally grateful for any helpful suggestions made :)

Sure m8, anything to help. Take the game, and burn it to a disc.
Then take the disc and skip it along the street. Then, run it over with your car. Then, go back to Wolf and take out your frustrations on some wide eyed kids. That's what I did and it worked for me.
The point of the journey is not to arrive.......

Oh armi, that aint very hard

Well, tbh I've never come that far, since I am hooked to wolf more than Vice City tho, but I've seen my bro doin it a couple of times...

When u are 'in' the plane, the game should tell u, I think it's in the left upper corner, wot u can do to move the plane.

If im not mistakin it's either KP_8 or KP_2 that u should use to keep the plane stable in the air..

Just try it out, dont play the mission yet, but just fly around a bit with the plane, and btw, I believe there's no timelimit to the RC Plane-mission...

PRACTISE :D:D:D

i managed to do the RC plane mission eventually after driving the plane along the road and finding an in game exploit that meant i could run over all the bad guys in turn without any of them reacting :D

The seaplane one still eludes me :(

well, I still think the problem is caused by anythin that has something to do with ur pc, cos I can play on 1024x768 (cant go higher, cos my monitor simply doesnt take highers resolutions)

So.... :P:P:P:P:P

Ok, what you need to do is start the game up. Once it loads up to the main menu, go to options -> display. It has to be when you first load it. You can't load up a game and then go to options because you won't be able to change the res then. Now hold your cursor over the resolution and use the right and left arrows to choose your resolution. Then click on the resolution to apply. I had the same trouble and that's exactly what I did to fix it. And hopefully I can still be helpful. :)
