Didn't think about that :S well so much for that..

or .. how about driving to the beach? I think it was an older strat, and after the beach you go to pole position? Probably not the best idea.. but who knows^^

Also, how do you buy an asset during a stored replay? I tried pressing and/or holding Tab, but it doesn't seem to work

you can't menno, buying assets only works with F1 replays, not F3

Adam - you can store a clothes replay at any point by f3-f3-f2. When doing the assest buying glitch you don't actually have to press f2 to clear the previous replay, you just do f3-f3.

Bubble - I did a bunch of testing with the cheat version of the glitch a while ago. You can regain full control of Tommy and not warp by being a certain distance away from the save marker and jumping. However once you're inside a certain radius of the marker you instantly warp there (along with any vehicle you were in).

Here's a highlight I made ages ago, it should work exactly the same with the new replay version:

Black cat: VC runners Brown cat: VC

So VC any% dead is confirmed... how about a Phonecall Skip now? :D

How about a fun category now?Guess i'm gonna run all missions for now.

Yeah I thought about going to all mission % now as well.. or at least no dupe%^^

alright so me and Possessedwarrior came up with an idea on what to do, since you can wait while doing one of the duped missions is to go get the fixed PCJ from across mitch bakers bar so you can have it for cap the collectors and on the way back to Vercetti

EDIT: You get the bike on the first one because yeah :P

EDIT2: me and PW are thinking of having it that after copland you do boatyard, and then do printworks .

EDIT 3: The mission duping buffered

EDIT 4: The mission can fail when you're just standing around , source: Possessedwarrior

Some interesting stuff has been going on here, but I can't see myself enjoying running a game (or route) that's based around strats I have to implement by exploiting a poorly coded replay system. So I think we should establish some distinctions here for a new category.

Any% Replayless? And, while we're at it, 100% Replayless? I'd say "Glitchless," but that brings some semantics into play - for example, is driving the thief to his own hideout in The Chase fair play in "Glitchless?"

Since it's been shown that these replay glitches don't really affect SA running, what about III?

I have 2 categories in mind, though they're both very arbitrary. 0rng%, dupe PW2 3 times, skip SSA and CP, or any% no duping, keep all strats and glitches except for mission chaining. Like I said, both are arbitrary and we're just have to get used to the fact that VC has been REKT.

I have been looking at a way to skip rampages. It looks like whenever you still have phonecalls to take, and then play the replay when standing inside a clothing marker, the game cancels the rampage, but I'm not 100% sure if it would work all the time. It worked for me, but I only tried it with 1 phone call.

This doesn't work when you don't have any phonecalls to take.

Still not 100% sure if it works, or if it would be worth it in any way. Worked for me but I didn't test it during PW2. Adam didn't succeed in it so far, so not sure.

EDIT: I just tried to do this again, and it isn't working for me either, so I must've done something very specific. If only I knew what. :s I think you need to wield the same weapon the rampage gives, and then you need to save reload the game or something. Got it to work once more, but now I'm missing something again.

Did you try the clothing in Havana? Also as for new category any% will be any% but any% no asset dupe would be what it was before minus cc, no replay means you do cc and if you want to do that then I don't know what I have to say

yeah, any% is kind of broken now. while it'll be fun to see how far this can be pushed for a bit, it's effectively a joke category like OoT at this stage and a category that goes back to allowing free assets to skip CC seems necessary

I think we can all agree that Any% No Dupe is a good call, then.

I'm gathering videos of all the duped missions here: http://www.speedrunrecords.com/Grand_Theft_Auto_Vice_City/guide/e39xy

Working with Pac to add more features for giving guides a nice layout, so keep an eye out for that.

I was looking on strats for a NG+ run and tried to answer phonecalls during PW1 I was able to answer 2 phonecalls (one on my way to the PCJ and another on the boat) but sadly the mission softlocks during the "I talk I talk" cutscene because, I guess, the audio files doesn't load because we're not technically on a mission

I tried a bunch of stuff (getting to the marker during the phonecall or during a rampage) but it doesn't do anything

Note: if someone find a way to make this work it could be used in regular NG since the rampage would end during the mission and then a phonecall could be answered near the boat Also, people don't shoot at you while you're answering phonecalls (could be useful for YOLOing some missions)

You could probably take the Cortez call during Supply & Demand by starting a rampage as you pick it up, as the mission is so long.

I also took a phone call during Printworks 1, but didn't get a softlock during the I Talk I Talk cutscene. Phone call I took was Long Lance, and I took it as soon as I was on the boat.

Looks like you can change the 'onmission' variable too by just starting a submission RIGHT BEFORE starting a rampage. Ppress the 'start submission' button just half a second earlier, then press F3. Afterwards you just cancel the submission, walk into the marker, start mission and then cancel the rampage, and repeat (if necessary).

It's not really changing much, but it can be a lot less risky since this would avoid you having to redo the 4 jumps at pw2.
