i finally got san an (for pc) about a month ago

finished the missions on it and now am extremely bored with it for some reason

ohh yea - bout 67% completed too

just wondering if anybody feels the same way - ie finished the missions and then cant really be bothered finishing it further

i reckon it tells something about the games - i reckon a game like san an should be a little less complex and then like only have the last mission available when the game will be completed 100%

like the last sweet mission only available when the completion of that mission will mean you complete the game 100%

yea.............

what do ewes people reckon

(im just really bored at the moment - finished uni and now cant be bothered working but i dont have anything to do at home and i have to work to pay off my car!!)

get a job mate, get rid of that excel! :P j/k

I've got GTA:SA on PS2 and I haven't played it for a while so I'm not sure what % I've done but I'm up to the first mission on the 3rd island. I'm not gonna go over to Las Venturas yet until I finish a few other things in San Fierro (like photo ops) and even Los Santos (havent gone over all the other gang tags for one). The last thing I remember doing to waste time (instead of doing missions) was doing up cars at Wheel Arch Angels.

I can't answer your question for GTA:SA, but when I finished the last mission in GTA3 I stopped playing the game cause I couldn't be f**ked doing all the little missions etc which make up the 100%, thats why with San Andreas I'm trying to finish all the side missions on the first two islands before I move on to Las Venturas.

Either way, it's given me hours upon hours of entertainment, I think it's an awesome game.

BTW, have you noticed those cars (forget the name) that look like R32s (with no spoiler and with R34 tail-lights)? And ones that look like 180SX, Supra, 300ZX etc? Or is it just me? lol

I love this game, only out of the ps2 at the moment because of Pro Evo 5. :D

It does step down a level after the story is completed, but instead of trying to do all the mini missions at once I go drifting with the 32. :) I have done all the tags, about 20 oysters & all the horseshoes, and 2 photos. :D

100% with the first girlfriend, the crackwhore s**t one, she's annoying. I love CJ's comments to his girlfriends when they talk shit. For real baby? :lol:

It aint that bad, first gf shit me (cause was too busy so kept losing progress) so I just stopped going there for awhile, just do that when your ready, get 100% then you dont have to see the bitch again. Turf wars dont last forever and at first you have to go to the gym a fair bit but once you get 100% muscle you dont really have to go back that often. You know you wanna plaaaaaaay :D

I used to love this game on Xbox, I've finished about 99.5% of it and can't find the last 0.5% that I'm missing! The only thing that I haven't done is all the unique jumps; I have one left and can't be stuffed going through them all again just to find the one that I've missed. But I've read on the net that you don't need to do all the jumps to complete the game 100%. Also I can't excersise at the gym anymore! It always says "You've worked out too much, come back tomorrow" even though I haven't been to the gym, or done too much swimming or running before hand. A glitch perhaps?

"Me fail english? But that's umpossible!"

I got this game the day it came out, and ive since clocked over 150 hours on it. ive got 80% on it because I cant be f**ked finding all the clamshells, horseshoes, photos, hidden jumps, tags ect. Its just such a big game ive been able to get that much time in. that said, im am extremely sick of it now and really need a new game. I was getting so bored with it that ive got drifting down to an art with it.. elergy and clover are the best cars for it..

Guess what? Nearly EVERY car is based on real life cars. There's Chevys, Fords, Holdens, Nissans you name it. Yeah there's a R32, I can't remember which car it is but if you have the PC version of it I can upload my text file which contains all the car names changed to their real life names so when you play it says the real names instead of the SA names.

Some I can remember:

Banshee = Dodge Viper RT

Turismo = Ferrari F40

Cheetah = Ferrari 512

If you don't believe me check for yourself. :)

Turismo:

Ferrari F40:

http://perso.wanadoo.fr/enzo-ferrari/photo.../F40/F40-28.jpg

Search for car images on google of these cars if you want more proof. Banshee is easy to tell. Cheetah, too... since I can remember them. :rofl:

Anyone interested in the conversion to the real car name's text file?

      Boost level and torque curve

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Wait until @Lithium posts a compressor map and tries to explain what's going on. There is a strong possibility that the OP lives in a digital world and is not comfortable with analogue machines. A turbo is just about as analogue as it gets, with plenty of non-linear behaviours added in on top. Most of us who think we know how they work are actually only getting by on 2nd and 3rd order mental models that abstract away from the actual physics and bring it back to the sort of kindergarten level concepts we can hold in our heads. This is important when you need to hold 10 such concepts in your head at the same time. You need to reduce the complexity of the individual concepts to allow them to be simultaneously held and manipulated. Too much complexity in the base models makes it very difficult to make them work with each other mentally.

      It could be. It might not be. It is impossible to know without context by asking the owner or the tuner on the day and knowing what they were doing/not doing/attempting to do. You said earlier this is hard to understand because to your mind, a turbo is at full speed when it hits its spike. This is not true. The turbos actual speed is defined by how much air is being forced through it via the exhaust, unless you control it. The spike you are seeing at ~whatever RPM it 'spools' at, is where boost control is starting. If there were no boost control the turbo absolutely would be spinning much faster at 7000rpm than 3000rpm, every single time, on every single engine. Boost control keeps the boost controlled within the limits you ideally want. If it were uncontrolled you would have two scenarios 1) You have a turbo that hits peak RPM and CFM (not boost) at the redline of the engine. This would work, but most people want more boost earlier. 2) You have a turbo that hits peak RPM well before the redline of the engine (say, 3500), and you explode the turbo by redlining the engine. (say, 7000rpm). If you don't want exploding things, or lag, you design a turbo system to come on when you want the boost to be useful, and then not overspin itself into oblivion by using some form of boost control, to control the boost pressure accordingly.
