Ok I know you guys have answered several questions similar to this one, but "hey", guess what i'm stuck on 99.5%.

I have read all the walkthroughs and previous posts of the same nature until my eyes have gone to sleep. I am pretty sure to get completion it is the second encounter with Eddie Lowe what's stopping me but for some unknown reason this dude will not appear even at his assigned time of day. I read somewhere after the first encounter that I needed to read about him on the Liberty Tree website Done that and still no show.

My stats are showing 12 random peds met so if my calculations are right I have one more right? I didn't spare any lives in the walk or die scenarios during gameplay.

So please is somebody out there able to confirm my theory' or by the figures mentioned it may be something else.

At first I wasn't at all bothered about the 100%, but seeing I am within touching distance it would be a real disappointment to not achieve it.

Many thanks in advance.

Have you checked if you unlocked the "No More Strangers" achievement / trophy? That'll tell if you really left a random character undone or maybe there's something else. Here's something I found related to when he'll appear.

Eddie Low - First Ecounter
Time: 20:00 - 4:00
Task: Take him to the docks. Drive him home.

Eddie Low - Second Ecounter
Time: 20:00 - 4:00
Task: Kill Eddie (he will attack you with a knife)

If you still can't find out what you haven't done, try uploading your save file here. If you use xliveless, you should find your save file at C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Application Data\Rockstar Games\GTA IV\savegames.

I found that I had to drive around a bit before the random characters showed up. By that I mean they will not appear if you are camped out right next to where they appear. For them to appear their location had to be off the little on screen location map. I found the second Eddie Low encounter by driving around a short distance away but regularly passing by where he would appear to look if he had appeared on the map. It took a bit of patience, but I found him. The big Liberty City map that came with the game shows the precise location.

Thanks guys for your responses it was much appreciated.

I actually found out today that I hadn't done the first encounter with him, although I definitely had. The only thing I can think of was I never saved the game at the end of that session. Very strange.

So after weeks of frustration and sweaty hands on controllers, I have finally finished to 100%. Wow what a feeling. Gta 1V is the first game I have completed everything on and a great feeling it is too. Now bring on GTA V. Only ?? more months to wait now.


Thanks again.

Congrats on the achievement man. I myself have yet to finish a game 100%. I'm trying to do so right now with San Andreas.
