II. Introduction/Thanks
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi everyone! My name is Mark Tennis and I am 19 years old from Phoenix,
Arizona, USA. I'm writing this walkthrough in hopes of helping people in
getting 100% in this game. This, in my opinion, is the best of all of the
games in the Grand Theft Auto series. It will probably take me an incredibly
long time to finish this walkthrough, but I will really enjoy making it.
Also, I will try to make this walkthrough as SPOILER-FREE as possible.
I will try to keep this walkthrough short and sweet when it comes to
how to do certain things (control-wise), as the game itself provides
tutorials along the way. Hopefully, you have played Vice City or GTAIII,
because this game feels much like the previous GTA's.
I want to thank Rockstar Games for making such a great game and I
want to thank BradyGames for making an EXTREMELY helpful guide. I urge
anybody to go out and buy the strategy guide for this as the maps are
a HUGE help as well as some of the strategies.

First off, I would like to note that I am writing this as I play through
the game, so please try not to ask me questions about any further in the
game then I already am. Also, I am writing this walkthrough for anybody who
wants to get 100% in this game. If you just want to go through the story
missions, then this is not the guide for you. Here is the basic layout, for
each section, I will label differently. For main story line missions, those
will be outlined using *
For example,
******************************************************************************
Mission #1 -- BLA
******************************************************************************
For Odd Job missions (side-quests that contribute to 100% as well
as give you some rewards), those will be outlined using +
There are also additional fun things to do such as a basketball game that
do not contribute to 100%. These will be in their own seperate section, not
in the walkthrough.
So, without further ado, lets go onto the walkthrough....
******************************************************************************
Beginning Mission #1 -- The Beginning
******************************************************************************
After watching the opening scenes, you will start off in an alleyway
with a BMX bike in front of you. Walk over to it and hit the Triangle button
to get on. To go forward on the bike, either hold the X button or tap it
repeatedly (for quicker boost). Your objective is to reach the "CJ" Icon on
the radar. Along the way, some tips will appear in the upper left (always
look out for these pop ups in the upper left throughout the game) on how to
ride the bike. This is an easy mission designed to get you used to the
controls and the feel of the game. Once you reach the "CJ" Icon, hit the
Triangle button to jump off of the bike and walk into the red glowing area
in front of the house (your house). Doing this will automatically trigger
the next mission.
******************************************************************************
Beginning Mission #2 -- Sweet & Kendl
******************************************************************************
After viewing some more scenes, you will be facing a bike. Get on the
bike and follow Sweet (has a blue arrow over his head and is a blue dot on
the radar) to the Mulholland Intersection. Be cautious as a group of
gangsters are following you in a Voodoo. Try avoiding it as much as possible,
or maybe lead them into an obstacle.
Either way, when you get to the Mulholland Intersection, part two of
this mission will begin. Now you will have to follow Ryder (again, with a
blue arrow over his head) through some alleyways and through a skate park
all the way back to your house. When you get there, just go into the red
marker to finish the mission.
===========================
Reward: Respect+
Percentage Complete: 0.53%
===========================
Now you can enter your house and save your game. You can also play
an arcade game at Carl's TV. Upstairs, you can find a camera and a changing
room (to change Carl's outfits). Also, at this time you can do some of the
driving side-quests, such as taxi missions. This is a good way to earn
some money and get familiar with the city. Also, you will receive a cell
phone call from Sweet (Press L1 to answer cell phone when it rings).
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Vehicle Mission #1 -- Taxi Driver
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The taxi cab missions in this game are much like the ones in other GTA
games. A tip meter is introduced in this game and will drop as time goes
on during a fare and as your cab takes damage. Don't worry if the tip meter
drops to zero though, as the passenger will not flee, you can still drop
he/she off and earn money for rattling off 5, 10, 15, etc in a row.
To start this mission, just find a taxi cab (either a Taxi or Cabbie)
and get in. They are pretty common and can be easily found after a few
minutes (more or less) of driving around. Once in, press the R3 button
to begin. To complete this mission, you must drop off 50 fares successfully
(it doesn't have to be 50 in a row).
================================================
Reward: Nitro boosts on all Cabbie's and Taxi's
Percentage Complete: 1.07%
================================================
After the mission, your fat and muscle stats should be all the way down,
don't worry about that, you can build them back up a little later. After
completing this mission, go back to your house in Ganton and save. Now get
ready for the next vehicle mission.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Vehicle Mission #2 -- Paramedic
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The Paramedic mission is done in an Ambulance. This mission is just
like the Paramedic mission in previous GTA's. Again, this is another good
way to get some money and get familiar with the city.
To start the mission, get into an ambulance and hit R3. You can find
an ambulance at any of the three hospitals in Los Santos. You can also kill
a few people to get one to show up.
As you increase in level, more patients will need to be picked up, thus
you need to plan your route out in the later levels. To pass this mission,
you must complete Level 12, if you fail you will have to start over at Level
1 again.
I recommend using the All Saints Hospital in Market (just west of
Downtown Los Santos). If an ambulance is not out front, run some people
over to get one to show up.
^^^ Tip sent in by Reverend420: It makes it easier if you punch the doors off
your ambulance beforehand, I noticed that it saves some time for the
patients to get in.
I personally didn't need to do this, but if you are struggling to pass
this mission, give it a try.
=======================================
Reward: Raises Maximum Health to 150.
Percentage Complete: 1.60%
=======================================
Again, head back to your house and save. Time to do the next driving
mission (only 2 more to go, for now).
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Vehicle Mission #3 -- Firefighter
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The Firefighter mission is done in a Fire Truck. Like the Paramedic
mission, this is just like the Firefighter missions in other GTA's.
To start the mission, get into a fire truck and press R3. You can find
a fire truck at a fire station (the one I know of is in Commerce, just
northeast of the freeway interchange, not Mulholland Intersection, but the
intersection southwest of Glen Park) or try starting a fire (can be done by
exploding cars -- beat a car up until it explodes).
Like the paramedic mission, the higher the level, the more cars and
people you have to put out. To operate the hose, press Circle to shoot water
and use the right analog stick to aim.
To complete the mission, you must complete Level 12. If you fail,
you have to start over at Level 1 again.
===============================
Reward: Become Fireproof
Percentage Complete: 2.14%
===============================
Head back to your house and save. One more vehicle mission to go (for
now)!
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Vehicle Mission #4 -- Pimping
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
This mission is new to the GTA series and you need a Broadway to do this
mission. A Broadway can usually be found around Unity Station (just steal one
from anybody) in North El Corona (near Little Mexico). It is a 2 door
convertible, they are pretty easy to spot, they look like a Hermes from Vice
City (and hear, they sound somewhat like a Cheetah in Vice City).
This is similar to the Taxi missions except that you are only
transporting two people, your prostitutes. Its basically, pick up one, drop
her off, pick up the other and drop her off. After dropping a girl off,
there will not be a time limit to pick the other one up. So if your car
gets beaten up, you can take it to the Pay N' Spray during that time.
Sometimes the customer and your girl starts fighting. When you
reach the scene, get out of you car and physically hit him. DO NOT KILL HIM.
To complete this mission, you must successfully complete Level 10
(10 full transactions).
============================================================================
Reward: When you pick up a prostitute on the road, she pays you instead of
you pay her.
Percentage Complete: 2.67%
============================================================================
Again, head back to your house and save. There is an asset mission
that you can complete at this time. This is the first of three Courier
missions.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Courier Mission #1 -- Roboi's Food Mart, Los Santos
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The Courier missions work like the Pizza Boy mission in Vice CIty.
You will drive/bike a two wheel vehicle and throw packages through a red
ring. There are four stages in each Courier mission and as you move up in
stages, the locations spread out. In the first three stages, the
time limit is five minutes (these are pretty easy). In the last stage, you
will be given eight minutes to deliver six packages to locations scattered
around ALL of Los Santos.
If you miss a ring, you can ride over the package that you threw and
pick it back up.
The first Courier mission is located at Roboi's Food Mart in Commerce.
From the south end of the police station, head west on the road (past town
hall) past a street on the left (south), the Food Mart is tucked away on
the south side of the road. Jump on the BMX bike that is sitting outside
to automatically begin the mission.
To complete the mission, successfully complete Stage 4. If you fail,
you will have to begin again at Stage 1.
===========================================================================
Reward: Roboi's Food Mart becomes an asset and generates $2,000 a day, stop
by each day to pick up the money.
Percentage Complete: 3.21%
===========================================================================
By doing the vehicle missions, you should have built up your Driving
Skills by now, enough to enter the stadium anyway (I think your Driving
Skills have to be at least 20%). This is the next Odd Job to do.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Stadium Mission #1 -- 8-Track
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
This mission is located at the Los Santos Forum. It is the stadium on
the southeast side of town. Just walk into the red marker outside of the
stadium to begin.
For those who played Vice City, this is similar to the Hot Ring race.
Basically, it is a race around a track shaped like an 8.
To complete this mission, you must win first place. This is a tough
mission that could take quite a few tries. The key is to avoid damage as
much as possible. Also, let go of the accelerator as you enter turns, then
accelerate as you exit each turn. This should make it easier to control.
===================================================================
Reward: $10,000 prize, the Monster and Hotring Racer appear on the
Northwest corner of the stadium from now on.
Percentage Complete: 3.74%
===================================================================
At this point, you should have acquired quite a bit of money (if you
did the vehicle missions). I have over $150,000 because I did 50 in a row
in the taxi driver mission. If you didn't get 50 in a row, you should have
around $100,000 or so. With this money, you can buy some safehouses
around Los Santos. They vary in price and some have garages.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Safehouse Purchasing (1 and 2)
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Buying safehouses in this game contribute to 100%, so you want to buy
all of them if you want to reach 100%. It is good to buy a safehouse that is
not located anywhere near another safehouse (for convenience, if you are out
and about and are looking for a quick way to save rather then drive all the
way back over to Ganton).
For now, I will direct you to two safehouses in Los Santos that
are convenient for location and have garages.
Safehouse #1: This is located in Santa Maria Beach. It is just west
of the pier and is located along the road that goes along the beach. You
will see a small house icon rotating around the front of the property. To
buy the property, step into the icon and hit L1. This property costs $30,000
and it has a garage.
So now we have a safe house in Eastern (Ganton) and Western (Santa Maria
Beach), lets buy one in central Los Santos. Some people like the safehouse
in Jefferson because it located closer to the Off Track Betting place (a
quick, and IMO cheap, way to earn lots of money), but I prefer a different
one in central Los Santos.
Safehouse #2: This one is located in El Corona at the end of a
cul-de-sac. This is east of Verdant Bluffs, just north of the airport and
just south of Unity Station. This place costs $10,000 and it has a garage.
===========================
Percentage Complete: 4.81%
===========================
That's it for the side missions for right now. The Vigilante Mission
can be done at this time, but I will wait until later in this walkthrough
to cover that mission. The BMX Bike mission is also open and you should have
a cycling skill of around 50% if you did the Courier mission. Again, I will
wait until a little later to cover this mission as it will be easier with
75%+ Cycling skill (you can get a bike and build your skill if you want, then
you can do the mission now if you choose to).
Now save your game and head back to Carl's house in Ganton. Next door
you will see a red marker in front of your neighbors (Ryder) house (Shown as
the "R" on the radar). Enter it to begin the next story mission.
******************************************************************************
Beginning Mission #3 -- Ryder
******************************************************************************
After viewing the scene, you will have a car in front of you with a
blue arrow over it. Enter the car and drive over to the Barber Shop
(indicated by the yellow dot on the radar). Park the car in the red marker in
front of the shop and enter the building.
Walk over to the red marker and you will sit in the chair. Select
one of the hairstyles and hit X to preview it. If you want it, press X
again to purchase it. The different hair styles will raise your respect and
sex appeal stats to different levels, depending on which one you selected. Of
the different styles, the cornrow is the one that will get you the most (it is
also the most expensive).
After picking a hair style, hit the Triangle button to exit the chair.
Ryder will comment on your new haircut and you will get a new objective. Run
across the street to the pizza place and enter it. Once inside, step into the
red marker to order a meal.
The larger the meal, the more fat you will gain (except with the salad
meal in which he doesn't gain any fat). Also, eating a meal will replenish
your energy if you have gotten hungry or gotten injured. Use the right/left
directions button to choose a meal and hit X to buy it. Hit the Triangle
button to exit and you will see another scene.
Run back across the street and enter Ryder's car. Quickly escape and
head back to Ryder's house (you can also run over the pizza boy) and drive
into the red marker to finish this mission.
===========================
Reward: Respect+
Percentage Complete: 5.35%
===========================
After the mission, run back into your house and save. Then head back
out and a few houses down is where your next story mission is. This is
denoted as the "S" on your map and radar. You will see a red marker out in
front of the house. Enter it to begin the next mission.
******************************************************************************
Sweet Mission #1 -- Tagging Up Turf
******************************************************************************
After the scene, get into the car in front of you and drive over to
the side of a bridge in Idlewood (the yellow dot on the radar). Once there,
park in the red marker and Sweet will get out and spray paint the Grove Street
tag over the other gang's purple tag (this also happens to be the beginning
of the next odd job, which I will cover in the next section).
Afterwards, Sweet will tell you to spray over two other tags in the
neighborhood. These are the blue markers on your radar. One is right across
the street. Walk over to it, hold R1 to aim at hit and hit Circle to spray.
The second tag is in the alleyway behind the house with the first tage on it.
Go over to it and spray that one too, then return back and get in Sweet's car.
Now drive over to the next yellow dot (in East Los Santos) and stop in
the red marker there. Sweet runs off, leaving you to spray three more tags
in the area. The first is on the side of the building with the wall mural.
The second is around back of the building (to the north). There are two
gangsters standing in front of it. Either ignore them and spray anyway, or
spray them both in the face and they will eventually die.
The third and final tag is a little trickier to get to then the others.
Run over to the yellow dot on the radar and enter the red marker. Press
Square to climb the fence. Then go forward and climb another fence.
Turn to the left, see that platform? Climb it and then climb up to the roof.
Run around to the right and go to the north side of the wall to find the last
tag. Spray over it and then jump off of the roof and enter Sweet's car.
Now drive back to Ganton (follow the yellow dot on the radar) and drive
into the red marker outside Sweet's house to complete this mission.
===========================
Rewards: $200, Respect+
Percentage Complete: 5.88%
===========================
Afterwards, you should receieve cell phone call from Officer Hernandez.
Head back into your house and save your game. Note that a spray can is now
located inside your house, upstairs across from the changing room. You will
use this in the next Odd Job, the first collection mission, the Los Santos
Gang Tags.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Collection Mission #1 -- Los Santos Gang Tags
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
In the last story mission, you sprayed 6 tags. Well, there are
94 more of these tags, scattered throughout Los Santos. I will do my best to
direct you to each and every one of these. I will cover them in the numbered
order of how they are in the BradyGames Strategy Guide. We have so far gotten
#1,2,3,4,5 and 20. If you run out of spray paint, die, or get arrested, you
can always return back to your house for another spray can (NOTE: It only
appears in your house in Ganton, not any of your other safe houses). With
each tag you spray, you earn more respect.
<<< Location #6: East Los Santos - About a block west of the Northeast
corner of Los Santos. This tag is located on the side of some stairs
that is located along the north side of a straight street (the one south
of the northernmost street in the city).
<<< Location #7: Las Colinas - Along the northernmost street, just north
of Location 6 and a little east. This tag is on the side of a yellow
house on the south side of the street. It is actually the second
house to the south (along the road heading to the south), on the south
side of the house.
<<< Location #8: Las Colinas - Follow the northernmost road to where it ends
to the east. This tag is located at the front of the building (facing
the ocean) on the Southwest corner of the intersection.
<<< Location #9: East Beach - Follow the easternmost road south along the
beach, just to the south of Location 8. This tag is located on the
north side of a building, right beside the easternmost road.
<<< Location #10: East Beach - Follow the road south some more from Location
9 until you reach a pedestrian overpass. Turn right into the parking
lot, then make a quick left in the parking lot and you will see the
next tag on a wall, next to a garage.
<<< Location #11: East Beach - Head back out to the road and turn left
(north). Follow the road and turn at the first street to the left.
Then turn right shortly afterwards into the parking structure. This
tag is just to the right after entering the structure.
<<< Location #12: East Beach - Make a right back onto the road you just
turned on (west), then make the first right. Just after the road heads
up the incline, look on the right (east) side of the road and you will
see some steps leading up to a building. Go up the steps and the next
tag will be on the wall to the left.
<<< Location #13: East Beach - Continue following the road up the incline
(to the north) and head past the first intersection. Stop right before
the bridge (where it says Golden Palms on the building) and head east,
then south around the building. Here you will see some body armor and
the next tag (to the south of the armor, you have to hop the wall).
<<< Location #14: Los Flores - Go back south along the road to the
intersection you just passed and turn right. Follow the road until you
see an empty billboard on the right (north). This tag in on the side of
the building across the street to the south of the billboard.
<<< Location #15: East Los Santos - Just west from Location 14, make a left
(south) onto the road. Go straight and just past the intersection, you
will see the next tag on the side of the building to the left (east).
<<< Location #16: East Beach - Pause the game and look at the map. See that
backward "S" shaped road on your map, to the southeast of your current
location? That is where the next tag is, on the west side of the road
(when the road is going north/south).
<<< Location #17: Los Flores - From the north end of the "S" shaped road
where you found Location 16, turn north onto the road. You will see
an alleyway on the left (west) side of the road. Go into that and
follow it for a short ways and you will see another alley on the left
(south). Head in there and you will see the tag at the end (to the left,
you have to reach the end, then turn around to see it).

After getting rid of the wanted level, head back to your neighborhood in
Ganton (the yellow dot on the radar) and drive into the red marker to complete
this mission.

Completing this mission opens up a new mission location, Ryder. This
is the "R" on the radar. For now, lets continue with Sweet's missions.
Make sure you grab a Tec-9 and AK-47 from your kitchen and head back to the
red marker in front of Sweet's house to begin the next mission.
******************************************************************************
Sweet Mission #6 -- Sweet's Girl
******************************************************************************
After the scenes, go get a car (either from your garage or steal a car
from someone on the street) and drive towards Playa Del Seville, south of
the stadium (red dot on the radar). !!!NOTE!!! If you want to recruit
some fellow gang members for this mission, walk up to one and target him by
pressing and holding R1. While holding R1, hit Up on the D-Pad to recruit
him. Gang members will follow you around and attack any rival gang members
as well as people that you attack.
Once you reach your destination, you should see Seville gang members.
Do a drive-by and try to take out as many of them as you can. They will
probably destroy your car, so hop out when it catches on fire and take
out the rest of the Seville gang members while on foot with your AK-47.
After all of the Seville gang members are dead, Sweet will call you
and ask you to pick him up. Hop into a 4-door car (you can either steal one
from somebody or get the Greenwood parked on the west side of the road, just
north of where the red marker is) and drive it into the red marker to pick
up Sweet and his girlfriend.
Now head back to Sweet's house in Ganton (yellow dot on the radar).
Watch out for the Seville gang, who will pursue you in their cars. Either
dodge them, or try to do a drive-by on them. When you reach your
neighborhood, drive into the red marker to complete this mission.
===========================
Reward: Respect+
Percentage Complete: 9.63%
===========================
Afterwards, save your game if you want and head back to Sweet's house
for another mission. Again, go into the red marker outside of his house
to begin the next mission.
******************************************************************************
Sweet Mission #7 -- Cesar Vialpando
******************************************************************************
After the scene, get into a car and head over to Willowfield (indicated
by the yellow dot on the radar). Head into the red marker to enter the
garage. The mechanic will give you a low rider. Now back the car into the
garage and you will be able to modify your car. This is the Loco Low Company
and it is the first Mod Garage in this game. There are a variety of things
to do to your car, from getting a custom paint job to installing NOS.
Refer to the Loco Low Company Mod Shop section in the Odd Job section of this
walkthrough for a complete list on what you can do here.
For now, you don't need anything extra to finish this mission, so exit
the shop whenever you are done. Now drive over to Unity Station in El Corona
(the yellow dot on the radar) and head into the red marker to start the
competition. You will now have to make a wager on the competition, the
minimum being $50, the maximum being $1000.
When the competition starts, look at the bottom of the screen for a
circle. A bunch of arrow icons will scroll through the circle in a random
order. Push the RIGHT analog stick in the direction of the arrow as it passes
through the circle. You will get points for each based on how well you do
on each arrow. This isn't too hard, I beat it on my first try and even made
quite a few mistakes. To complete the mission, just beat your opponents'
score. A scene will play afterwards.
========================================
Reward: Double the amount of your wager
Percentage Complete: 10.16%
========================================
Loco Low Company will now appear on the radar as a wrench icon. Head
there after obtaining a lowrider to modify it. A new side mission is now
available upon completion of this mission, so head back and save if you want,
then go find a lowrider (or use the Savanna that you used in the competition)
to get ready for the next mission. Also, you will receive a phone call from
Cesar (hit L1 to answer the phone) and a new mission location will open up,
indicated by "CV" on the radar. Transfenders also opens up (in Temple,
near Vinewood), refer to the Transfenders section in the Odd Jobs section
of the walkthrough for more information.
Make sure you have a lowrider. If you need one, go to the house next
door to Cesar's (next to the "CV" icon) to find a Blade. Be sure to stop
by Loco Low's to give it some Nitrous, you're gonna need it on the next
mission. You can buy some other things there, but they will only change the
appearance of your vehicle. When you are ready, (I suggest saving the game
with your modified vehicle in your garage down the street from Cesar's, in
case you fail the next mission) go to the "CV" location on the radar and
drive into the red marker to begin the next mission.
******************************************************************************
Cesar Mission #1 -- High Stakes, Low-Rider
******************************************************************************
After the scene, follow Cesar (indicated on the radar by a blue dot,
also has a blue arrow over his car) into Verdant Bluffs and head into the
red marker to begin the race. You will now race through a series of
checkpoints that leads up to Vinewood and finishes at the Santa Maria pier.
Try to keep an eye on the radar for the next checkpoint location. Use your
nitrous (L1) on straightaway's to gain an advantage over your opponents.
Also, be careful while turning, as lowriders tend to love to fishtail.
Keep you lowrider low to the ground (L3 to change whether it is raised or
lowered) for better handling. To complete this mission, finish the race in
first place. It isn't too difficult to win this race, you should win it
on your first couple of tries.
============================
Reward: $1000
Percentage Complete: 10.70%
============================
Afterwards, drive back to your savehouse in Ganton and save your game.
Now it is time to begin a new series of missions. Head next door to Ryder's
house (the "R" on the map) and enter the red marker out front to begin the
next mission. !!!NOTE!!! This is a night mission. You can only begin this
mission between the hours of Noon and 8 PM (12:00 to 20:00).
******************************************************************************
Ryder Mission #1 -- Home Invasion
******************************************************************************
After the scene, you will be in a Boxville. Ryder will accompany you
on this mission. !!!NOTE!!! You will have eight minutes to complete this
mission (the countdown clock is at the upper right of the screen). Drive
over to the Colonel's house in East Beach (indicated by the yellow dot on
the radar) and enter the red marker.
Go into the house (where the yellow arrow is). Once inside, note the
noise meter underneath the timer. Once it fills up, the Colonel will wake
up and you will get a two star wanted level (and the Colonel will shoot at
you with a shotgun), so be sure to not fill up the meter. The best way to
sneak around is by crouching (L3) and then using the left analog to move
around (tap lightly to move quietly).
Now you must steal at least three crates of guns (additional crates
are optional!). The first is located to the right of where you enter (by
the wall near the cannon), it is indicated by a green arrow. Go over to
it and hit Triangle to pick it up, then take it back outside. Load it
into the Boxville by hitting the Triangle button again.
Go back inside the house. The next crate is in the room opposite the
stairs (to the right from where you enter) in the back left corner near the
cabinets. Again, pick it up and take it back outside to the Boxville.
The next crate is located at the top of the stairs. Repeat the same
process as the first two. Another crate is also located upstairs in the
hallway and there is another one in the Colonel's room (only try for this
one if you are feeling lucky enough).
Make sure you are outside of the house when the timer expires and get
back into the Boxville. Now head to the lockup building (indicated by the
yellow dot on the radar, there is no time limit) in Playa Del Seville and
pull into the red marker. Now park the Boxville in the garage to complete
this mission.
============================
Reward: Respect+
Percentage Complete: 11.23%
============================
With the completion of this mission, you will have unlocked the Burglar
Odd Job. !!!NOTE!!! In the Strategy Guide, it lists this as a required
mission, but when I did it, it did NOT raise my percentage at all, this is
why I put it in the Non Required Odd Jobs section.
Now, save your game at your savehouse in Ganton and grab some weapons
from your kitchen. Head next door to Ryder's house and enter the marker out
in front of his house (the "R" on the radar) to begin the next mission.
******************************************************************************
Ryder Mission #2 -- Catalyst
******************************************************************************
Ryder will join you on this mission. After the scene, get into the
Picador and drive over to where the train has stopped in Las Colinas (the
yellow dot on the radar).
Kill all four of the gang members around by either running them over or
using the weapon of your choice. Then kill the four gang members in the car
that just pulled up.
Hop onto the train (by going into the red marker). Now you must throw
some boxes to Ryder from the moving train. Aim using the left analog and
throw using the Circle button. There are enough crates on the train, so don't
worry if you miss. You must throw 10 crates to Ryder to continue this
mission. Try aiming above Ryder to get him to catch it. This isn't too hard,
you should get the hang of it after a couple of throws. To put some power on
it, press and hold L1, then release it to throw.
After Ryder has 10 crates, you will get back in the Picador and have
a Three Star wanted level! Go quickly to the nearest pay-n-spray (indicated
by the yellow dot on the radar) to get rid of the stars.
Now drive back to Ganton (the yellow dot on the radar) and enter the
red marker to complete this mission.
============================
Reward: Respect+
Percentage Complete: 11.76%

Head back to your savehouse in Ganton and save your game. Be sure to
grab weapons from your kitchen (especially Molotov Cocktails) before starting
the next mission. When you are ready, head next door and enter the red
marker outside of Ryder's house (the "R" on the radar) to begin the next
mission.
******************************************************************************
Ryder Mission #3 -- Robbing Uncle Sam
******************************************************************************
After the scene, get into the Mule (truck) parked out front and drive
over to the Ocean Docks (indicated by the yellow dot). Pull into the red
marker once there and a scene will play.
Approach the wall and throw a Molotov Cocktail over the right side of
gate where the jeep went into (you can see a guard standing there). If any
other guard comes after you, throw another Molotov Cocktail to take care of
him.
Once the guards have been taken out, hop the wall and shoot the switch
next to the gate (manually aim) to open it. Follow alongside Ryder and
shoot any guards that you see along the way (there shouldn't be more then
two). Approach the building that Ryder is parked outside of and shoot the
keypad to the right of the door to open it (again manually aim).
Kill the two guards upon entering the warehouse. Get on the forklift
and drive up to one of the boxes on the floor in front of you. Like the
game says, get underneath one of the boxes and hold up on the RIGHT analog
to lift the box. Now carry it over to the van and load it onto the van
(make sure that the box is raised high enough to make it into the back of the
van). After loading each box, a couple of guards will show up. Kill them,
then get back into the forklift and get the next box. If you hear Ryder
shooting, then help him out by killing the guard he is shooting at.
Load the other three boxes that are on the ground, then get two more
boxes on the ground outside of the warehouse (to the north of the van).
If you are having trouble, try anticipating when the guards will come out
(about every minute or so, one shows up). Try getting a box onto the
forklift, wait for a guard and kill him. Then load that box onto the van,
wait for a guard and kill. Repeat this process and this mission will be
a breeze.
After getting six boxes, get into the Mule and head back to Emmet's
place in Willowfield (indicated by the yellow dot on the radar). Along the
way, you will be pursued by the National Guard in Patriots. Hit the L3
button and Ryder will toss a box full of explosives out the back and hit
whatever is behind you. So wait until a Patriot is behind you and let
them have it!
To complete this mission, head into the red marker at Emmet's place.

Head back to your safehouse in Ganton and save your game. Now it is
time to do another story mission. Head to where the only available mission
is (Big Smoke's House in Idlewood, indicated by the "BS" icon on the radar)
and enter the red marker to begin.
******************************************************************************
Big Smoke Mission #1 -- OG Loc
******************************************************************************
Big Smoke and Sweet join you on this mission, as well as OG Loc a little
bit into the mission. After the scene, drive over to the Police Station in
Pershing Square (indicated by the yellow dot on the radar) and drive into the
red marker out in front of the station.
After the scene, drive all the way to Freddy's house in East Los
Santos (indicated by the yellow dot on the radar) and pull into the red marker
here. After the next scene, follow OG up the stairs to the house and walk
into the red marker.
After another scene, you will have to pursue Freddy on a motorcycle.
Don't worry about killing Freddy while on the bike, instead, concentrate on
staying on Freddy's tail. Freddy takes the same path every time, so if you
are having trouble with this mission, learning the route will make it a
little easier.
Keep following him until he stops (back in East Los Santos). Take
Freddy out as well as the other gang members (should be easy if you have an
AK-47 or Tec-9) on the stairs.
Afterwards, get into a car (or on a bike and make sure OG is with you)
and head over to the Burger Shot in Marina (indicated by the yellow dot on
the radar). Pull into the red marker to complete the mission.
============================
Reward: Respect+
Percentage Complete: 12.83%

By completing this mission, a new mission location will open up at the
Burger Shot you ended the mission at. This is the OG Loc set of missions
(the "OG" icon on the radar). For now though, head back to your safehouse in
Ganton and save your game. Grab the Tec-9 from your kitchen. When you are
ready, go back to Big Smoke's house (the "BS" icon on the radar) and enter
the red marker to begin the next mission.
******************************************************************************
Big Smoke Mission #2 -- Running Dog
******************************************************************************
Big Smoke will join you on this mission. After the scene, get in the
Glendale and head over to East Los Santos (indicated by the yellow dot on
the radar). Pull into the red marker.
After the scenes, sprint after the Vagos (the red dot on the radar).
When you get close to him, use the Tec-9 to shoot him (since you can shoot it
while running). Kill him to complete this mission (easy huh?).
============================
Reward: Respect+
Percentage Complete: 13.37%

Afterwards, head back to your safehouse in Ganton and save your game,
there is a tough mission coming up. When you are ready, head back to Big
Smoke's house (the "BS" icon on the radar) and enter the red marker to begin
the next mission.
******************************************************************************
Big Smoke Mission #3 -- Wrong Side of the Tracks
******************************************************************************
Big Smoke will accompany you on this mission. After the scene, drive
over to Unity Station (indicated by the yellow dot on the radar) and into the
red marker.
After the scene, get onto the Sanchez (make sure Big Smoke gets on as
well) and follow the train east. Once you catch up to it, pull up on the
right side of the train and when you pull up alongside of the Mexicans, Big
Smoke will shoot at them. Keep your distance from the front of the train in
case there are any cars on the tracks (to avoid the explosion). This happened
to me after the first bend, I'm not sure if its in the same spot each
time. If there is an oncoming train, just go to the right of that to avoid
getting hit (Big Smoke will yell out if there is one coming).
I was able to kill all three Mexicans before getting to Fisher's
Lagoon, but if you happen to reach there, at one point Big Smoke will tell
you to take the high road when exiting the tunnel, so go ahead and take it
(it is to the right). If you don't kill the Mexicans by the time the train
gets to the highway you will fail the mission and have to start over. Just
drive steady and hope that Big Smoke has a straight enough shot to kill them.
After killing all of them, drive all the way back to Big Smoke's house
(indicated by the yellow dot on the radar). I recommend backtracking on the
railroad tracks (that would be the fastest route). Drive into the red marker
at Big Smoke's house to complete this mission.
============================
Reward: Respect+

Afterwards, head back to your safehouse in Ganton and save your game.
There is another tough mission coming up, be sure to grab some weapons from
your kitchen, namely the AK-47 and Tec-9. When you are ready, head back to
Big Smoke's house (the "BS" icon on the radar) and enter the red marker to
begin Big Smoke's Final Mission.
******************************************************************************
Big Smoke Mission #4 -- Just Business
******************************************************************************
Big Smoke will accompany you on this mission. After the scene, drive
to Commerce (indicated by the yellow dot on the radar) and enter the red
marker.
Now you will be smack dab in the middle of a shootout! Just keep low
and use auto-aim to blast away anybody and everybody that shoots at you.
The objective is to keep Big Smoke alive while killing everyone else. Note
that these enemies will drop MP5's, so pick one up since it is better then
your Tec-9. Just continue killing everybody inside and Big Smoke will
head outside when everybody is dead, so follow him out (be sure to grab
the Body Armor on the lower level if you need it).
Switch to your AK-47 when outside and kill everybody out here. After
killing everyone, you and Big Smoke will hop onto a bike. Now you will have
no control over the steering of the bike (Big Smoke will) and you must keep
the bike health bar from reaching zero. Use the Right Analog Stick to control
where you aim and shoot using the Circle button. Shoot at all of the other
motorcycles (aim for gas tanks or tires to make it easier).
When you reach the roadblock, shoot at the gas tank on the middle car to
clear the roadblock, then take out the two men to the left of the roadblock
(next to the car). As you go through the flood control, take out any
motorcycles and cars that pursue you (don't worry about the truck that comes
along). More motorcycles will come after you after leaving the flood control.
Just keep shooting anybody that comes after you and eventually you will come
to a stop at East Beach. This will complete the mission. *Phew*

Marina (the "OG" icon on the radar) and enter the red marker around back to
begin the next mission. NOTE: You can only begin this mission between the
hours of 10:00 pm and 6:00 am (22:00 to 06:00).
******************************************************************************
OG Loc Mission #1 -- Life's a Beach
******************************************************************************
After the scene, steal a car and drive over to the beach party at Santa
Maria Beach (indicated by the yellow dot on the radar). Be sure not to hit
anybody or you will fail the mission. Walk into the red marker to continue
the mission.
During the conversation, hit right on the D-Pad both times the DJ asks
you a question and you will enter a dancing competition. This works much
like the Lowrider Competition that was in the "Cesar Vialpando" mission
except you will be hitting buttons instead of moving the joystick. Just like
with the Lowrider competition, hit the buttons along with the beat.
To continue the mission, score 4000 points or more. Afterwards,
respond positively (right on the D-Pad) and then enter the van. Drive away
(ditching the DJ, everyone will shoot at you) and head over to a storage
garage in Commerce (indicated by the yellow dot on the radar). Pull into
the red marker in front of the garage to complete this mission.

******************************************************************************
OG Loc Mission #2 -- Madd Dogg's Rhymes
******************************************************************************
After the scene, head over to Madd Dogg's mansion in Mulholland
(indicated by the yellow dot on the radar). Head over to the back door and
walk into the yellow marker to enter the mansion.
Now you will be introduced to stealth. Sneak up behind the first guard
and hold R1 to target him, then get close to him and press the Circle button
to do a stealth kill. Go down the hallway to enter the pool area. Notice
the guards movements and sneak behind him and perform another stealth kill.
Its easier to hide in the dark corner to the left and wait for him to pass
you to kill him. Or just go the right and around the pool and eventually
get behind the guard.
Head through the next door and another guard will approach. Go into
first doorway to the left (where it is dark) to hideout and wait for the
guard to pass by, then perform another stealth kill.
Continue up and through the hallway, then through the door to the left.
Continue down the hallway and you will reach a room with a bar. Crouch (L3)
and walk across the bar to keep out of the bartenders line of sight. Then
continue crouching through the next room with the TV (you can perform a
stealth kill on the guard on the couch if you want).
Continue through the next hallway (around two bends to the right), grab
some body armor from the room on the left if you need it and continue through
the room with the body armor (there is a painting on the wall opposite the
doorway). Look to the right to see another guard facing the other direction.
Sneak up behind him and perform another stealth kill. Now grab the rhyme book
in the next room.
Head back into the room with the body armor and you will see another
guard in the other doorway facing the opposite direction. Perform a stealth
kill on him and grab his Silenced 9mm. Continue through the hallway and
shoot the guard that is standing in the next doorway (you are going out the
same way you came in). Kill the guy on the couch and the bartender (if you
didn't before, or crouch again and sneak past them). Then kill the next guy
around the corner and the guy in the pool room using the Silenced 9mm. Then
exit through the door you used to get into the mansion.
Now head back to the Burger Shot in Marina (indicated by the yellow dot
on the radar). You can take the Mountain Bike that is in front of you, or you
can steal a car and drive there. In any case, enter the red marker to
complete the mission.

donut shop in Market. For now, head back to your safehouse in Santa Maria
Beach and save your game, there are more missions to do for OG Loc. When
you are ready, head over to the Burger Shot in Marina (the "OG" icon on the
radar) and enter the red marker to begin the next mission.
******************************************************************************
OG Loc Mission #3 -- Management Issues
******************************************************************************
After the scene, get in the car and drive over to Madd Dogg's managers'
driver (indicated by the red dot on the radar, should be near the Burger Shot
in Temple). Once you find the driver, ram into the car and cause enough
damage for him to get out of the car and start shooting at you. Run him over
and kill him (or get out and shoot him), then steal his car. Take it over to
the pay-n-spray in Temple to get the car fixed. !!!NOTE!!!: You have until
10 pm (22:00) to get the drivers' car over to the pickup spot, otherwise you
will fail this mission.
Once the car is fixed, drive over to the pickup spot a few blocks away
(indicated by the yellow dot on the radar). Make sure not to hit anything
on the way there or you will have to return to the pay-n-spray. Once you
reach the location, make sure to park in the same direction as the other cars
and do not hit them. Park in the red marker to continue the mission.
After the sequence, you must stay in between the other two cars as you
head towards the awards show (a couple of block away, straight ahead). Once
you get there, another scene will play. Afterwards, head over to the Verona
Beach pier (indicated by the yellow dot on the radar) while dodging the
pursuing cars along the way. Once you reach the pier, drive full speed
towards the end of the pier and when you are just about to reach the end,
bail out of the car (Triangle button). Kill the four guys that came out of
the car behind you, then either take their car or take the BMX Bike nearby
and head back to the other end of the pier. If any of the security vehicles
are still pursuing you, take them out as well (they will be the red dots on
the radar). Once all of them are dead, you will complete this mission.

Loc's missions. I suggest having weapons for this next mission, so either
head back to Carl's house in Ganton to pick some up or check the Weapon
Locations section of this walkthrough for other weapon locations. Also,
Body Armor may not be a bad idea, so be sure to get some (check the Armor
Locations section of this walkthrough for locations).
******************************************************************************
OG Loc Mission #4 -- House Party
******************************************************************************
After the scene, head over to the Barber Shop across the street and get
a new haircut (for a list of how much respect/sex appeal you will recieve,
check out the Barbers section of this walkthrough, in Non-Required Odd Jobs)
if you need it (it isn't required). Next, if you need/want new clothes, head
over to the ProLaps in Rodeo (check out the Clothing Stores section of this
walkthrough for a complete list of what you can buy).
When you are ready, head over to the house party at OG's house in Ganton
(indicated by the "OG" icon on the radar). You have until 5 am (05:00) to
get there. Once there, head into the red marker to continue this mission.
After the scenes, you will be put into another wild gunfight. Use
whatever weapons you have to take down all of the rival gang members. The
first wave consists of eight ballas. Feel free to use cars as cover and
just fire away! After the first wave has been defeated, four more appear
on the bridge above you. Again, use whatever weapons you have to take them
out.
Afterwards, you will have to deal with a total of twelve more Ballas.
Most of them come from the alleyway. Just keep running and gunning until
all of them are dead. Hopefully, you got Body Armor beforehand, because that
really helps in this mission. When all of the Ballas are dead, a scene will
play and the mission will be completed.

After the mission, save your game at your safehouse nearby in Ganton.
Now, it's time to take a short break from the story missions and do another
Odd Job (this could have been done since the beginning of the game). If you
have a Cycling skill of about 75% or more (pause the game and look at
Stats --> Player to see what % your Cycling stat is at), you should be able
to complete the next Odd Job pretty easily. If not, find a bike and just
move around with it to gain skill.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
BMX Challenge
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
To begin this Odd Job, head over to the skate park that is south of
Glen Park (the park itself) and west of the Hospital in Jefferson. Head to
the northeast section of the skate park and hop on the BMX Bike that is
located near a half-pipe to begin this mission.
Now you must collect 19 checkpoints scattered throughout the skate park
(in any order). You start with 10 seconds with an additional 10 seconds added
each time you get a checkpoints. Some are located above your head, use a
bunny hop (hold, then release L1) to collect those.
My advice is to collect the ones on the ground first before getting the
tougher ones that are in the air. Having a high Cycling skill will really
help here, as the higher the skill level, the higher you can bunny hop. To
complete this mission, collect all 19 checkpoints before time runs out.

******************************************************************************
C.R.A.S.H. Mission #1 -- Burning Desire
******************************************************************************
After the scene, head over to Downtown Los Santos (indicated by the
green dot/arrow on the radar). Once there, grab the Molotov Cocktails in the
alleyway.
Now drive over to a gang house in East Los Santos (indicated by the
yellow dot on the radar). Once there, kill some of the gang members hanging
around outside. Now you must toss a Molotov Cocktail through five different
windows (each indicated by a red dot on the radar) that each have a red arrow
above them. Hopefully you did the firetruck mission so that you are fireproof
and not vulernable to taking any damage while doing this. If not, toss the
Molotov's from a distance so that you don't suffer any damage. If you run
out of Molotov's, more will appear nearby (just go to the green dot on the
radar).
Once you have done that, you must save the girl inside of the house.
Run around to the front door (indicated by the yellow dot on the radar) and
enter the building. Once inside, run all the way to the back (and left),
then go up the stairs. Run up to the last door on the left and a scene will
play.
Now head back downstairs and into the kitchen (left from the bottom of
the stairs). Grab the fire extinguisher and head back to the girl's room.
Use the fire extinguisher on the flame in the doorway and approach the woman
to trigger another scene.
Head into the room across the hall. Use the fire extinguisher to put
put the flames in the doorway in the next room and continue through. Head
into the hallway and put of the flames here, then continue downstairs. Put
out the flames in the doorway to the left (leading to the kitchen), then
continue through the next room and hallway (basically heading straight),
putting out one more set of flames and finally exit the building through the
front door (make sure the girl is behind you).
After the scene, get into a car (making sure the girl is with you) and
drive the girl to her house in Ganton (indicated by the yellow dot on the
radar). Drive into the red marker in front of her house to complete this
mission.
=======================================
Reward: Denise becomes your Girlfriend
Percentage Complete: 17.65%
=======================================
Afterwards, you will recieve a phone call from Sweet (Hit L1 to answer
the phone). This will unlock the second set of Sweet's missions (the "S"
icon on the radar, at the Ammunation in Market). Also, completing this
mission unlocks the Girlfriends Odd Job. Denise is now your girlfriend, so
you can take her out on a date (as well as a few other girls). See the
Girlfriends section of the Non-Required Odd Jobs section for a full
explanation on this Odd Job (you can get 100% with Denise now). For now,
head back to your safehouse in Santa Maria Beach and save your game. Pick up
some weapons if you need some and some Body Armor as well (refer to the
Locations section of this walkthrough). This should become a regular habit.
When you are ready, head back to the donut shop in Market (the "C" icon on
the radar) and enter the red marker out front to begin the next mission.
******************************************************************************
C.R.A.S.H. Mission #2 -- Gray Imports
******************************************************************************
After the scene, head over to the Ocean Docks (indicated by the yellow
dot on the radar) and pull into the red marker. Head a little bit south from
there to the railroad tracks. Go into the building on the west side of the
road. You can find body armor in one of the boxcars in here. Head out the
west side of the building and turn to the right. Take out the guard near the
garage with a gun (preferrably the AK-47) and then any other guards who come
after you. Go towards the yellow dot on the radar (notice more body armor to
the right (east) of the dot.
Shoot the keypad that is just left of the garage door to open the door.
Take out the three guards in here and head into the building. Keep following
the path, taking out guards along the way. There is a health icon behind some
boxes in the far north part of the building, if you need it. In the open
area, there are seven more guys to kill (three up above). After killing
everyone, go up the stairs (killing anyone left) and enter the room straight
ahead.
One of the Russians will run off. Follow him through the complex and
eventually (if you don't kill him by then) he will get into a Banshee and
drive into the flood control area. Hop on the BF-400 (motorcycle) nearby and
chase him through the flood control area. Get behind him and keep shooting
with either a Tec-9 or MP5 (the enemies in this mission have them, just pick
one up after killing them) until the car explodes. Kill the Russian to
complete this mission.
============================
Reward: None
Percentage Complete: 18.18%
============================
After the mission, head back to your safehouse either in El Corona or
Santa Maria Beach and save your game. As usual, make sure you have body armor
and weapons (check the Locations section of this walkthrough), then head over
to the Ammunation in Downtown Los Santos (the "S" icon on the radar) and enter
the red marker out front to begin the next mission.

First off, I would like to say thanks again to BradyGames and their

Odd Job #1 -- Clothing Stores
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
There are six different types of stores located throughout San Andreas,
each has their own line of clothing and different types of clothes to choose
from. Most articles of clothing will boost your respect and sex appeal stats.
Clothing makes up 4% of your respect level and 50% of your sex appeal level.
Make sure you consider each article of clothing before making a decision on
what to where. Note that each save house has a changing room, where you can
change different articles of clothing (only the ones you have purchased
though).
The best way to find a clothing store is to look at your in-game map.
Each location is marked on the map, just head to where the icon is and you
should find that store. Here are the general locations for each of the
stores:
