Duping problem

Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, France

Hi everyone :)

I'm a beginner in GTA:SA speedrun and I trained hard since 2 weeks already. Everything is going well but ... when i try to use dumping with the truck mission my game crashed instantly when i start Ran Fa Li mission :/ (i see the fade and the mission name but my game crashed after that).

I tried to reinstall the game 2 or 3 times but the result is the same. For informations, i have a Steam version downgrade on V1.0 and i use too Silent's script with the last loader (V1.3). I tried too the dumping with Blood Bowl mission but ... no success :(

Anyone has already encounter this problem? :D My training run was stopped because of this problem :/

I hope you can help me, i'm very desperate. You're my last chance :)

I heard that Steam version GTA:SA crashes the Ran Fa Li dupe. Can you get a retail version?

you can dupe ran fa li on the steam version, but the only way u can do it by is by using trucking, using blood bowl or whatever will crash the game

V1 with "Silent's script". SilentPatch? That one is banned. Feel free to ask why.

It seems like you started Ran Fa Li with Trucking still running. There is a delay between blowing up the satchel charge and the mission failing. If you don't hold the call when blowing up the satchels, the phone ringing stops and Ran Fa Li starts.

You should make sure that your game supports onmission 0 calls: Start Quarry with a call (just get out of your vehicle into the marker with a call in the queue). Then hold ACTION (tab by default), then fail Quarry. Restart Quarry and finally you can let go off ACTION. If he takes the call, you are fine, else downgrade or something.

Duping involves a lot of concepts, so have fun reading. :) Maybe skim the head lines of this page https://kb.speeddemosarchive.com/Grand_Theft_Auto:_San_Andreas/Game_Mechanics_and_Glitches/Duping read the explanations on this page for the dupes themselves https://kb.speeddemosarchive.com/Grand_Theft_Auto:_San_Andreas/Missions/Dupes and watch the videos. Then, when an unknown concept is mentioned, read the corresponding section of the first article I linked.

Listen to Patrick. Downgraded steam is basically retail. Seems a lot of people don't know what they're talking about and it's not good for new runners.

Patrick is probably right and you most likely just did the dupe incorrectly.

Thanks everyone for your help ! @Patrick_ was right ... I forgot to hold the answer when I entered into the marker... @illuminati7777 told me the same tips yesterday on his stream and ... it works perfectly today !

I'm so happy now, i can continue my SA Any% training \0/

@Patrick_ why Silent's script is banned? :O What is the best way to downgraded and patch the game?

Thanks a lot again ! :)

You mean this, right? [quote]14ms frame delay has been removed. As a result, game now locks properly on 30 FPS instead of 25 FPS[/quote] So - sorry, we all have to go through the pain that is R¤ style 25 FPS.

The resources section links a Steam downgrader.

Oh ok ! Thanks.

Hum ... i remembere why i use Silent's script => mouse problem. How i can solve this issue without the patch? Need download DLL or something ?

Oh nice, I pressed CTRL-r instead of CTRL-t and lost all I typed ...

Try this (I used English search terms and got this :D - just go by position of the things):

Before that, you can try checking the fourth or fifth or both of these checkmarks - I use both http://i.imgur.com/jbSTpHc.png

You can also try the affinity thing - use a dictionary to translate that to your language.

Those are all the things I know.

Come back with the new problems caused by a solution that fixed your mouse. Don't be discouraged. ^^ Getting the mouse to work is your priority, then troubleshoot the rest. ^^

So, my game work normaly ... No issues encountered :)

Thanks a lot for your different links and videos !

I have another question, i don't understand how I hold the phone call when I drive after Blood Bowl. I need to assign another keyboard key or I can use the default shoot key (CTRL LEFT).

I know i need to hold the call all the time until I enter into the next mission marker but I miss all the time when I down my bike :/

I have linked you some articles in my first post. I could answer your question but then the next question would come up. 10 times. ^^
