NO CD for GTA3 San Andreas 1.1?

[Crying Gamer]

Hey they finally released a patch for GTA3 San Andreas--anyone know where the No-CD is for it?

[Optimummind]

I don't think the patch offers any bug fixes. If it does, plz correct me. Since it gets rid of the "Hot Coffee" "problem," I'm gonna keep my game at v1.0 ATM.

[Crying Gamer]

Yes it does include a TON of bug fixes. C'mon folks, where's the No-CD--I finally got the money to buy this game and I want to play it without all the bugs and without my DVD .

Isn't it always funny that some ***** are able to find all kind of weird stuff on Kazaa, but the same ***** are not able to find and read the board rules of this forum ? Yes, it is. My belly is shaking like .....(up to you)

Talking about downloading games is a no-no here at Fileforums.

The "Hot Coffee" scenes were not intended to be part of the Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas experience. If your copy of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas for PC has been altered by the unauthorized "Hot Coffee" download circulating on the Internet, or if you wish to prevent your version from being so altered, follow the appropriate link below to download and open the "No More Hot Coffee" game patch. Then follow the simple installation instructions.
- Rockstar Games

The link is the interestingly named NoMoreHotCoffee.com. Make sure you download the right patch for your version of the game. That is, providing you want to install it anyway... Going by what the website says, the patch doesn't seem to fix any of the numerous bugs in the game, it just removes the previously hidden mini-game, however included in the readme after downloading it is a list of fixes (which can also be viewed Here).

only fixes hotcoffee

As the patch obviously only "fixes" the "Hot Coffee"-function, applaying and installing this patch doesn't seem to make much sense! So better keep the game on version 1.0. For that version is a NO-DVD-CRACK available.

The mini-image does not work for me...does it work for anyone else?

[Crying Gamer]

It fixes more than just that--read the file that comes with the patch.

************************************************


INSTALLATION
--------------

- Launch the updater EXE file.

- Confirm that you are using the correct updater for the specific version of GRAND THEFT AUTO: San Andreas you are using.

- Use the file requester to locate the directory where you installed GRAND THEFT AUTO: San Andreas (the directory which contains the gta_sa.exe file).

- If the updater recognises the gta_sa.exe file as the correct version, it will begin the update process.

- To confirm that you are using the updated version, we display the version number 1.01 on the main menu page.


ADDITIONS
-----------

- Added support for 720p and 1080i HDTV resolutions (may also do 1080p, not sure).

- Version Number displayed on game title screen.


BUGS FIXED
------------

- Issue fixed on machines where the OS has been updated (one OS installed over top of another) and has 2 registry keys that point to the users "My Documents" folder (we incorrectly used to assume the Win2000 folder, now correctly uses the last installed OS folder) - users know this as "user account period bug".

- Crash when entering advanced display options with only 32 meg of video ram (32 meg of video ram is not supported and will only allow use of 640*480 in 16 and 32 bit. At this resolution it is likely you will see the "Black Roads" LOD problem). We do NOT however disallow machines with 32 meg of video ram from running GRAND THEFT AUTO: San Andreas.

- Crash when entering advanced display options on a dual monitor machine after :- starting game on primary monitor in maximum resolution, exiting, starting again in maximum resolution on secondary monitor. Secondary monitor maximum resolution had to be greater than maximum resolution of primary monitor.

- Destroyed cars now are correct colour.

- Dirty cars now able to get clean.

- Numpad 5 key is now mappable when re-defining controls.

- Issue on all machines where certain collisions caused parts of the audio system to crash (sound effects, cutscene audio - only radio keeps going) - users know this as "Rain / Thunderstorm bug".

- Improvements to DVD streaming.

- Audio problems in interior / exterior transitions and getting in / out of cars fixed.

- Some fixes to ensure reverb is not present at certain save points.

- Improvements to dance game timings.

- Crash occuring when using "user radio files" while the frame limiter is disabled.

The patch is released on 9th August 2005 (yesterday).
Next time don't read only "the file that comes with the patch".
You should also read the FileForums Board Rules. Particularly rule #6.
