In the downtown area, there is a huge round building ( tallest building in the area ) enter at the bottom ( yellow marker ) and the parachute is on the roof....

**Make an easy 50 Grand!**

Do 12 successful Fireman missions (by stealing a Fire Truck) and you get about £50k in total for completing all the missions and you become fireproof!

But do you get to keep the uniform? That'd increase your sex appeal no end

>I'm stuck on this motorbike mission where your chased by russians on motorbikes

It goes on for quite a while after the Truck bit!! Upping your gun skills makes it easier, other than that aiming just above the bikes seems to do the trick.

I opened San Fierro last night. This game is taking far too much of my time, love it.

Don't tend to notice the graphics as the huge amount of gameplay draws you away from that....

Bloody stuck on some cr4p mission at the moment, racing a lowrider through various checkpoints, damn them things handle like ****...
I must have spent an hour last nigt trying this, gave up in the end and turned it off... Hopefully a fresh head tonite will see me pass the mission.....

I had the same problem with the racing mission but I found a car with pretty good handling and loads of power. Just try out a few different cars mate.

I think I got lucky on this mission as I came in first on my first go and don't remember even seeing the other cars. Good excuse to spend some cash on Nitrous

Just pulled off a great stunt on top of Mt Chilian [sp] Rode my mountain bike off the edge, jumped off, bit of freefall then popped my chute, landed on a truck roof and rode around on it for a while bowing to my fans

I think you may be able to go to skydiving school to learn how to repack it... but then I could be talking crap.

I went to the high building last night and founf the parachute, jumped off the building. While I was falling with the 'chute open I thought I'd press a few buttons to see if you could do anything in mid air, nothing happened until I pressed the button that you use to get into and out of vehicles when I lost my 'chute! DOH!

LOL, I couldnt figure out how to open my parachute first time, splat

I want to know how come you can dive bomb when you have an unopened parachute on your back, but you cant when you have no parachute at all

just done 'learning to fly' mission at the airstrip i purchased, not very easy kept crashing.

don't fly over the area 69 airbase you'll get shot down by either the harrier jet or the ground air defence system.

Just noticed the sultan looks like a scooby but you can't modify it with a spoiler or nos.

The best vehicles to drive are the tractors when you link two or three together and then try to tow something else.

Also drove a train but crashed it into a river on a sharp bend.

What radio stations do you listen to?
