Hello everyone,

I use to play mostly on computer, in i like GTA San Andreas, i know some versions of many games vary on platforms they are into. I noticed that on PC, you can mod the cars, players, map, skins and even more (i got to say it's fun to play with a nice BMW or Shelby GT500 instead of a yellow cab but never tryed the maps.
Anyway, when i looked into the content of the ps2 game, i was surprised to see pretty much the same files (only different size), so i was wondering:
Can i possibly mod my backup of the ps2 version so i can play with my brand new Porsche Carrera 4S ?

I know the files get bigger when i change them so i have to stay in the "4.30Gb" but i'm sure it can work but does anyone did or tryed it? i don't want to put to much in the garbage.

Thank you.

Ok if you have the thick ps2 your ganna needa few things you have about 2 choices a mod chip to let you play copied games or some hard drive that has 40 GB allowing you to store games but they say they dont sell them anymore so try ebay or something. Now if you have a slim ps2 your in luck and its easier again a mod chip but your other choice would be swap magic 3 kit comes with a flip top cover a sawp magic disc and some tool to remove the disc swap magic allows you to play BACKUP GAMES. Oh and like those other guys said you need to install the files from GTA Sa onto your computer mod them there and burn them on to a writeable disc I prefer dvd-r since people say they get less proplems

jolimule have you tried modding the cars on GTA SA. I have seen it been done on the computer version as well. I know you are asking has anyone else tried it on PS2, I just thought that you may have gave it a try. If you do post what you did and how you did it. I would like to try it for myself.

It works. Mod it just like you would a normal pc version but a little differently.

1. Extract with isobuster and save your LBA
2. Use IMG Tool 2.0 and open GTA3.IMG which should be located in the MODELS folder (you might need to delete the files then add)
3. Replace the files you want and rebuild archive
4. Rebuild the game image according to LBA using either cdvdgen from sony or cdgen 3.0 (i prefer sony cdvdgen)
5. Save to IML with cdvdgen or save to image with cdgen
6. Use IML2ISO or another program to make an ISO if using sony cdvdgen and burn

Now if you don't want to go through the whole rebuilding process just make sure you're not making the GTA3.IMG bigger. Extract ONLY the GTA3.IMG file, and do steps 2 and 3 then use a program like ISO Relinker or Apache 3 to replae the file in the ISO, then burn.

Now a big problem is how many polygons the car or object is. If the mod has too many polygons the frames will be unbelievably slow or the game will just freeze. If this happens you might not be able to use that mod.

I have tryed to mod GTA: San Andreas for my modded xbox. I ftped all the files from my xbox to my computer. I then installed the mods for pc in my gta3.img file using img tool. then i made an iso file out of all the files that i ftped to my computer, but now they are modded, then i burnt the iso file to a dvd disc and poop it in my xbox, but it doesn't recognize the disc and therefore won't play it. I also tryed just playing it on my computer. I used the method to put the exe file in the crack folder and boot it up and it starts, but when it goes to the loading screen it loads to about halfway then theres a pop up on my computer saying there was an unknown errorand it shuts down the game. someone please help i would really like to mod san andreas.

thanks

well in fact there is a way but its hard to do i did it in no time flat here is what u do cover the disk reader (the small little shiney metal thing inside the lid) then put in a greatest hits verson of the game (make shure you also have the normal verson aswell in which that will have a major factor in the possable two hour prosses)the game should start up as usuall. when you get to the title page(before the loading screen)and eject the disk. next is the hard and longest part. the game should be paused when you eject the greatest hits disk then go on your computer and try to burn the game but if that dosent work thats where the normal verson comes into place. remove the cover from the disk reader and insert the burnt or the normal verson game and you should have also removed the controler too. and so you will have to insert that to the systam aswell and put in the never wanted cheat code(which is circle, right, circle, right, left, square, triangle, up) then press the following buttons x,x,x,x,x,x,x, up,up,up,up,down,left,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,up,x,x,x,x,right,left,right,up,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,circle,up,down,left,righr,square,x,x,x,triangle,circle,right,down. and thats how you do it. well thats the open up lid. if you have the older verson of the ps2 well,ive got nothin for ya
