GTA San Andreas (360 / HD Version)

[gangrel_1313 23]

I was searching the forums about the game and was looking for specific issues with the game, I was having issues with the xbox crashing at certain times which I posted about in the other topics forum thinking it was an issue with Aurora which it was not, but I was interested in seeing what other peoples experiences was with the 360 version, I had the ISO version and converted it to GOD myself but it was crashing at the Abandoned Airfield flight school missions, specifically the Circle Airstrip and Land mission of flight school, I actually have 99.47% completion of the game and when looking around I had 1 stupid thing missing, ended up being that same exact flight school mission that crashes the xbox (shuts it completely off), I'm pretty sure its the preview video crashing it as some of the others work and even after the play and then they loop, still plays, until I select that one which acts like it freezes and crashes. Also I searched online about the bugs and some people found out that too many cars at one hideout will cause it to crash or something, so I was trying to blowup the unlocked aircraft to lighten the load on hardware resources or at least see if it would effect it, and it actually got me into the flight school but the videos would cause it to crash, I did find out that when I blew up the crates/boxes just beside the stairs to the flight school it would load the school fine, but that 1 particular "Circle Airstrip & land" mission is just a no go, crashes it everytime. Tried deleting CACHE from NXE, doesn't help, changed from GOD to regular Game Directory (someone said games run better if they are not GOD), that didn't make it better.

I was looking at the files to see if there was a configuration file or something to disable the video on something but I figure that is wishful thinking as its probably hardcoded somewhere. Oddly I was able to get a Silver medal earlier in the game, but it wont load it at all now.. Wonder if using the save editor and removing that silver medal would allow me to play that one again?..

I'll also upload a video on youtube in a little bit, showing exactly what it does.

It is fatal crashing, which means there is a corrupted file in your ISO, or something wrong with the title update. Might see about finding a different copy of the game, as most of the stuff you find online is not ripped properly. if you can find the game on disc, and the disc is in good shape,i would start there. Also, try disabling the title updates, and see if that makes a difference. The biggest problem with rips online, is that people truncate the image, so it can be burned to non overburnable discs.

There are no TU's as far as I know, or at least not on Unity Marketplace anyway

Interesting find, apparently it is a bug in the game and maybe not the rip itself, they patched it on PS3, I'll check for a 360 patch

Game is glitchy.. period.. haha.. and no hot coffee mod.. why play it? Why not play gta5 which is a better version altogether?

Its still a fun game, I was still playing the old game for the Original Xbox, until I learned they had a HD version for 360. I don't care about the hot coffee mod..LMAO.

here is the video of how it crashes.

First off, change launch.ini, and disable fatal shutdown, and enable fatal reboot. Then when it crashes, it will go back to aurora. This is a fatal crash, due to a corrupted file somewhere in the game. There is nothing we can do to help, other than say make sure fakelive is disabled, as this causes issues with some games.

Very strange, I enabled enable fatal reboot and decided to try it again, I blew up the crates again before going to the school, it had the regular parachute at the beginning again, I was looking at the different controls I decided to hold X (whether or not it makes a difference for some stupid reason) and I was able to go over and it didn't crash, I was able to get the gold medal on that one, gonna try to see if I can scroll them all, there was actually 2 that crashed it, I didn't notice it "Circle Airstrip" and then "circle airstrip and land", I'm going to try the other to see if it works now.
