Newbie 0 #79 February 18, 2005 Actually i don't know quite how i did this, i think it was a bug. I put in the flying car/floating car cheats, and zoomed a couple of miles up and then jumped. While i was falling, i experimented with openings and then spawning more things - rigs, jetpacks etc. Somehow i spawned a jetpack while i was falling but it didn't appear on me, but it put CJ into the "jetpack position" which makes him look like he was sitting, but i was still in freefall. Needless to say, it didn't let me open my chute but it was sure fun while it lasted. "Skydiving is a door" Happythoughts Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can actually jump it by just flying over there in your jetpack before unlocking that part of the city but you will have cops all over your ass. I did a couple a's but can't remember exact locations. I have yet to find one you could get on top of without using a jetpack or landing on it with a parachute jumping out of a plane.

The game's plot is already objectionable to many people: Its main character carjacks for fun and profit and picks up women along the way. But some say its content becomes sexually explicit if players download and install a modification to the game -- one of many so-called "mods" available on Web sites maintained by video game enthusiasts. "While San Andreas is already full of violent behavior and sexual themes, the pornographic sex scenes push it over the edge," said David Walsh, founder of The Minneapolis-based National Institute on the Media and the Family, which issued a "nationwide parental alert" Friday. The controversy has prompted an investigation by the Entertainment Software Ratings Board, which determines the rating on every video game sold. Rockstar Games issued a statement Friday, confirming the investigation and avoiding comment on whether its programmers created the sex scenes in the first place. "We also feel confident that the investigation will uphold the original rating of the game, as the work of the mod community is beyond the scope of either publishers or the ESRB," the company said. The mod's author -- Patrick Wildenborg, 36, of Deventer, Netherlands -- told The Associated Press on Friday that his code merely unlocks content that is already included in the code of each off-the-shelf game. "If Rockstar Games denies that, then they're lying and I will be able to prove that," Wildenborg wrote in an e-mail. "My mod does not introduce anything to the game.
