Copyright Notice & Disclaimer ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ INTRODUCTION ------------ # There is currently no Mission Select Mod code for # # Liberty City Stories (PS2). If/when one is created, # # I will write up a guide for it. Until that time, there # # is nothing I can do, so please don't ask about it. # Many people have hacked the Grand Theft Auto games to pieces and have come up with many fantastic codes for the games. One of those codes allows you to play any mission any time you want: the Mission Select Mod. The Vice City Stories version of the code, which was created by Skiller, works differently than the code in previous GTA games. For starters, there is now an eleven line activator. Then there's the usual line in which you plug in the digits for the mission you want to play. Now there's also a line in which you must plug in the digits for the vehicle that you want to trigger/play the mission in. No longer can you use an "All Vehicles Can Do Taxi/Vigilante Missions" code to use any vehicle you want during gameplay. Now you must select your vehicle BEFORE you start up the game. Of course, you have a wide selection of vehicles at your disposal, so you still have a choice. During gameplay, the code works like this: Grab the vehicle you chose in the Vehicle Mod code and press R3 to trigger the mission (as you normally would to start any vehicle-based R3 mission). The game may appear frozen (or on a black screen with pink "Loading" text in the corner), but after 10-15 seconds the cutscene for your selected mission will play (though you won't see the mission title before the cutscene). When it's done, you're on the mission. It's as simple as that. In most cases, after the mission is complete, you can press R3 to play it again. I highly suggest that you don't use these codes on a saved game that you wish to play "for real" with the intent of eventually getting 100%. If you use this code to "skip" a mission, by playing the one after it, you probably won't reach 100% completion because you never played and completed the other mission. The Mission Select Mod code (all three parts) was originally posted by Skiller on GTAForums.com. All of the Mission Digits were found by me (Paul Rudoff) by going through a list of Hex digits one by one, as the digits that were posted at GTAForums were incorrect. The Vehicle Digits were found by Unknown. ================================================================================ CODES ----- These codes will (most likely) only work with the PS2 NTSC version of the game, not with the PAL version, or any PSP version of the game. Also, there are currently no versions of the Mission Select Mod code for the Action Replay Max. The digits for the ?? spaces in the Mission Mod and Vehicle Mod codes are in the two sections following this one. The CodeBreaker v6+ master code was tested by me. I have not and can not test the other master code, but it should work. ##### IMPORTANT CODEBREAKER NOTICE ##### Do not use these codes along with the codes from the official CodeBreaker website. The ones on the website are in the v7+ encryption, which is incompatible with these unencrypted codes. The codes below WILL work on all CodeBreaker versions (v1 and higher). If you own a CodeBreaker v7 or higher, you will need to create a new game (call it "Grand Theft Auto - Vice City Stories HEX" for example) and put all of these codes in there. Each cheat device uses the same codes, however each one has its own Master/Enable Code, which must be the first code in your code list, and must ALWAYS be on (otherwise all of the other codes won't work). * MASTER/ENABLE CODES CodeBreaker v6+ / Game Shark v3+ / XP v4+ 9046A2E0 0C11A860 CodeBreaker v1-5 / Game Shark v3+ / XP F0449384 00449387 * CODES FOR ALL DEVICES You need all three parts of the code in order for it to work. Mission Select Mod (Taxi) - Activator D048741C 00100000 204494F4 08028080 200A0200 3C130048 200A0204 8E73741C 200A0208 3C140002 200A020C 3694B93C 200A0210 0293A021 200A021C A2960062 200A0220 A2950001 200A0224 A2950041 200A0228 03E00008 Mission Select Mod (Taxi) - Mission Mod 200A0214 241600?? * Replace the ?? with the digits for the mission you want to play. Mission Select Mod (Taxi) - Vehicle Mod 200A0218 241500?? * Replace the ?? with the digits for the vehicle you want to trigger the mission in. IMPORTANT NOTE: The code only works in the vehicle you chose in the Vehicle Mod portion of the code. It will not work in a Taxi unless that's the vehicle you selected. While this code is active, Taxis will not have any R3 missions. I highly suggest you don't save while this code is active and just use this for fun. ================================================================================ MISSION DIGITS & NOTES ---------------------- 1st column: digits for Mission Mod code. 2nd column: mission status, based on this legend: * Mission can be completely played and completed. X Code works, but mission can't be played and/or completed. ? This is a mission that I normally have trouble passing, so I can't yet verify whether it can be completed with the code (but the code does work). 3rd column: mission title (as if you couldn't figure that out already) Some of these will put your vehicle in an awkward spot - like stuck in something. Get out of the vehicle and find something else to drive. In other words, don't trigger a mission in a vehicle you want to drive during the mission. Try to trigger the missions in a small car. Don't use a bike (you'll usually meld with it) and don't use a helicopter (it will usually get stuck in a wall or building). Sgt.

No way to escape, no way to play mission. 55 - Blitzkrieg This mission might feature an alternate cutscene telling you to build an empire. 56 - Turn On, Tune In, Bug Out 57 - Taking The Fall 58 - White Lies 59 - Where It Hurts Most 5A - Blitzkrieg Strikes Again This mission might feature an alternate cutscene telling you to build an empire. 5B - Lost And Found 5C - Light My Pyre Gonzalez 5D - Homes On The Range NOTE: A humorous side effect is that when you hit the golf ball, your vehicle flies along with it. 5E - Purple Haze 5F - Farewell To Arms Ricardo Diaz 60 - Steal The Deal 61 - The Exchange 62 - Domo Arigato Domestoboto 63 - Over The Top 64 - The Last Stand Vehicle Missions 0E - Paramedic (Ambulance) 0F - Vigilante 10 - Firefighter NOTE: Must be triggered in a firetruck, otherwise you will instantly get the "you have 30 seconds to return to a firetruck" warning, even though the arrow indicating the firetruck is above your car! 11 - Paramedic (Air Ambulance) NOTE: Change Car Mod to a helicopter. Digits "BD" is what is normally used. If the mission is triggered in a car, it will be impossible to pass, and there will be a safety chute attached to the back of the car. 13 - Taxi Driver Empire Building 09 - Select Empire Business To Build (need to have the cash to build them) 0A - Empire Building Attack NOTE: If you trigger the mission away from the attack site (which may be random), you will have 15 seconds to get there. Depending on where you are, this may not be enough time, and would lead to failure. 14 - Empire Building Mission: Protection Racket 15 - Empire Building Mission: Loan Shark "Go Outside" As the marker is located under the golf course, I see no way to play this mission. 16 - Empire Building Mission: Prostitution As there are no markers, briefing, mission text, or information of any kind, this is a useless mission. Pressing R3 twice to cancel is the only thing you can do mission-wise. 17 - Empire Building Mission: Drugs - Mission 1 "Cut A Deal" 18 - Empire Building Mission: Smuggling - Mission 1 "The Drop" 19 - Empire Building Mission: Robbery - Mission 1 "The Briefcase Courier" Miscellaneous 0D - Shooting Range NOTE: You may automatically fail this mission due to your vehicle getting blown up while you're nearby it. Maybe if you trigger it on a motorcycle or BMX bike, you won't die from an explosion. 12 - Driving Range NOTE: A humorous side effect is that when you hit the golf ball, your vehicle flies along with it. 1A - Water Sports (Jet Ski Race at Prawn Island) 1B - Crash Coach Mission "Cause $2000 worth of destruction within the time limit." 1C - Quad Bike Time Trials 1D - BMX Time Trials 1E - Sanchez Time Trials 1F - Leaf Links Golf Cart Race Course 20 - Mashing Up The Mall (BMX Mall) "Collect all the coronas! Beat the course record of 4:30." In car, accelerated a bit: "Mission failed, You destroyed your bike!" 22 - Heli Tours For obvious reasons, this mission can only be played in a helicopter. 23 - Fire Heli NOTE: Change Car Mod to the fire department helicopter. If the mission is triggered in a car, or any other vehicle, it will be impossible to pass, as there is no water hose to extinguish the fires with, and there will be a parachute attached to the back of the car. 24 - Turismo (Sunshine Autos) (need to have the cash to enter races) 25 - Hunter Target "Pass through each checkpoint! Beat the record time of 4:00." Requires a helicopter or other flying vehicle. 26 - Air Race "Pass through each checkpoint! Beat the record time of 4:00." Requires a helicopter or other flying vehicle. 28 - Multi Vehicle Race 29 - Hyman Memorial O.D.T. "Pass through each checkpoint! Beat the record time of 4:50." Requires an air vehicle. Non Working Codes 08 - Teleport To Beachcomber Hotel, Stuck In Car 27 - After a "Welcome To Vice City" loading screen or two, you are teleported to the nearest hospital, and your weapons are consficated (you'd need $2000 to buy them back). 2B - Little Haiti Hover Craft Race Freezes when it presents this text: "Pass through each checkpoint! Beat the record time of 1:45." ================================================================================ VEHICLE DIGITS -------------- AA Splitz-6 ATV AB Admiral AC Cheetah AD Autogyro (Little Willie?)

I'm listing them all here because I probably made reference to a few of them in the mission select mod sections above. If I reference something that's not listed below, then I'm probably referring to a button cheat. You can find all of them here: http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/ps2/code/938211.html All of these codes are unencrypted, so they will work with all of the cheat devices that have master codes in the Codes section. None of these codes were created by me. All of them came various websites, such as these: http://www.gtaforums.com/index.php?showtopic=268506&view=findpost&p=4076837 http://www.cheatdevice.com/gta/vcsps2.htm http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=938211&topic=34048674 http://www.cmgsccc.com/codes.php?do=view&id=5928 (converted to raw format) ************************* PLEASE NOTE ************************* AS I AM STILL AT THE EARLY STAGES OF PLAYING THE GAME, I HAVE NOT TESTED OUT EVERY CODE LISTED HERE. SOME OF THESE MAY NOT WORK. EVENTUALLY I WILL TEST THEM OUT FULLY. SOME CODES MAY ONLY WORK IN CODEBREAKER V7 OR HIGHER. These first two codes could be really useful in conjunction with the Mission Select Mod code. Replace the ?? with the Vehicle Digits listed in the section above to spawn that vehicle instead of the one that the button cheat normally gives you. 1028215C 000000??

A few of these are floating around, but they don't work - at least not on my version of the game. If you can provide me with working codes, they will be added to this document and you will be credited. Codes that I can't get to work will not be posted. -- Sniper Rocket Launcher -- No Gangs Hate You ================================================================================ USEFUL GLITCHES --------------- Since GameFaqs is no longer accepting glitches and easter eggs (even though they are listed on the Cheats submission form), I figured that I'd put the few things that I have in this guide, so that others could benefit from this information. I've also submitted this information to the Internet Movie Database so it can be read by the largest amount of people possible. PLEASE NOTE: I am not accepting glitch or easter egg submissions as these are the only ones that I feel are worth sharing. ~~~~ PIPE GLITCH - GET TO SECOND/EAST ISLAND EARLY ~~~~ There's a dirt mound with a police bribe at the top a bit northeast of Escobar International Airport's main terminal building. Beyond that mound there's a pipe in the ground. The trick is to jump on the pipe from the top of the mound. Alternatively, you can jump from the ground on the other side of the pipe. The key seems to be to aim for where the sides of the pipe meet the ground. You will slide off then POOF the "Welcome To Vice City" postcard (loading screen) appears. Afterwards you will appear on the Leaf Links golf course, which allows access to the east island. This trick will take some health away but not much. It may be tricky to jump on the right spot, but after a few tries, you should get it to work. The "Welcome To Vice City" screen appears instantly when it works. Since this glitch teleports you to the locked second island, it is very useful for people who want to collect all of the balloons, rampages, jumps and other stuff to create a master save file (and it works without having to use cheats!). Not to mention folks who just want to explore the second island from the start of the game. If you need help finding the pipe, here's a map to help you out: http://img261.imageshack.us/img261/4739/gtavcspipeglitchmapgk9.gif If you have trouble getting the jumping quite right, here are a series of screen shots to guide you: 1.

This shows that it can be a bit tricky to get it to work, but that it DOES work! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dpjcVLUwUvc Note: If you die while illegally on the east island, you will be taken back to one of the hospitals on the west island. Also, to easily get back to the west island, get the VCPD Maverick (helicopter) on top of the Washington Beach Police building or any of the boats at the pier. FYI: It's not that hard to get out of Leaf Links and a vehicle IS always parked nearby. From where the warp puts you, head straight north (use the mini-map in the corner to guide you). You'll run into the hedge that runs alongside the road. Turn right/east and a short ways up is the bridge which connects both sides of the golf course. Go onto the bridge and jump off onto the road. Head down the street heading east until you get to the intersection. The house on the left (Mercedes house in Vice City) always has a car parked in front of it. This glitch was found by Lancet Jades (Johnny) and posted by GTA_Loco at: http://www.gtaforums.com/index.php?showtopic=268867&view=findpost&p=4104023 The screen captures were posted by Win98crash at: http://www.gtaforums.com/index.php?showtopic=268867&view=findpost&p=4108697 The map was made by me, Paul Rudoff, based on this Health/Armor/Police Bribe Map: http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/ps2/file/938211/45739 ================================================================================ EASTER EGGS ----------- Since GameFaqs is no longer accepting glitches and easter eggs (even though they are listed on the Cheats submission form), I figured that I'd put the few things that I have in this guide, so that others could benefit from this information. I've also submitted this information to the Internet Movie Database so it can be read by the largest amount of people possible. PLEASE NOTE: I am not accepting glitch or easter egg submissions as these are the only ones that I feel are worth sharing. For the locations of all 11 Happy Face signs, and for links to images and videos of ALL eggs in this section, please check out Rob White's GTA:VCS "PS2 Exclusive Content Guide": http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/ps2/file/938211/47835 ~~~~ HIDDEN SIGN INSIDE A BOAT ~~~~ There is a sign featuring the happy face from the Liberty City Stories easter egg INSIDE the boat docked on the south east side of the first island (it's right next to a unique stunt jump). To see it, swim towards the front of the boat. Vic will swim under the water a bit, causing the camera to zoom inside the boat's hull. * In the PlayStation Portable version the sign reads: "Nothing To See Here..." * In the PlayStation 2 version the sign reads: "I Wasn't Joking - There Really Is Nothing To See Here. Go And Look In The VCN Building Instead!" ~~~~ VCN BUILDING EASTER EGG ~~~~ Hidden in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City was a literal easter egg - a chocolate easter egg that said "Happy Easter" on it. This easter egg is back, but since this game takes place two years before Vice City, it isn't quite finished being built yet. Go to the western end of the Downtown bridge that goes over to Prawn Island and enter the VCN building. Go up to the roof and from here, go up the ramps to the helipad. On the northwest corner of the helipad is a small rectangular window that belongs to the building next door. Do a running jump into this window to find the easter egg, complete with construction crane. Also in here is #11 of the happy face easter egg signs. It should be noted that this easter egg and happy face sign do not exist in the PlayStation Portable version. FYI: This easter egg is what the hidden sign inside the boat was referring to. ~~~~ A MESSAGE FROM ROCKSTAR (AKA STADIUM SIGN) ~~~~ To the left of the Hyman Stadium entrance is a small platform (it's a unique stunt jump) with a tourist sign about the stadium. If you have a camera or sniper rifle in your arsenal, take it out and look at the sign. At the bottom of this sign, in small text, is a message to the player. * In the PlayStation Portable version the sign reads: "You are standing on USJ 005a, a fine new addition to our great city that isn't contrived at all. Have you found the 10 easter eggs? Rockstar Leeds would like to thank you for playing the game and letting us have a rockin' christmas party." gamefaqs.com/psp/933097-grand-theft-auto-vice-city-stories/images/screen-2 * In the PlayStation 2 version the sign reads: "You are standing on USJ 005a, a fine new addition to our great city that we've all grown to love. Have you found the 11 easter eggs? Rockstar Leeds would like to thank you for playing the game, and by the way, the christmas party was great." The easter eggs referred to in the text are the Happy Face signs mentioned in the next item. ~~~~ THE HAPPY FACE SIGNS ~~~~ Scattered throughout Vice City are signs featuring a drawing of a happy face and a hand-written number (1 through 10 in the PlayStation Portable version, 1 through 11 in the PlayStation 2 version). This face is the same one used in the Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories easter egg. I'm not going to give you the locations of all 11 signs because Rob White's guide already does that quite nicely. However, I will tell you that Sign #6 can be found on one of the rear walls of Hyman Stadium. Sign #11, which is exclusive to the PlayStation 2 version, can be found in the same place as the infamous Vice City easter egg. ================================================================================ REVISION HISTORY ---------------- Ver. 1.0 (5/15/2007) The very first version of this guide. PLEASE NOTE: Although all of the codes and digits are present, this guide is a work in progress. I have only started to play test this code, which is why there are practically no notes for any of the missions, and the status column for all missions is a blank dash. Since this game is very large and contains lots of missions, it is going to take me a while to go through them all. Ver. 1.1 (5/17/2007) Added the "Useful Glitches" and "Easter Eggs" sections. Ver. 1.2 (10/30/2007) Added some alternate image urls for the Pipe Glitch, as well as an image for the PSP version of the stadium sign. Ver. 1.3 (7/26/2008) Officially changed the name of the guide to "Mission Select Code Guide" as I hope that will stop people from thinking this guide is about game modding. Also added the note at the very top to make it perfectly clear that you need a cheat device (CodeBreaker or Game Shark) in order to use these codes. ================================================================================ COPYRIGHT NOTICE & DISCLAIMER ----------------------------- This document is copyright 2007 by Paul Rudoff.
