well can i join although my pc broke, and i am not a pro gamer so i use admin console sometimes

[Arsen Vitiuk]

Of course you can. But don't use the Admin Console under any circumstances! For everyone's better gameplay.
If you read the rules, that's the way of the Chain Game.

I have been asked a question about the 'Purple Nine Glitch'. I have been investigating this question and this is what I have found out: The Purple Nines disappearance is coded in game, as it is part of the story. They disappear after Claude defeats their remaining soldiers in mission "Rumble". The 'glitch' itself, however appears ONLY when there is already another savegame(s) with mission "Rumble" complete in the GTA III User Files directory. The thing is that the program reads through all the savegames, and not only through the one you're loading. That's why when having read in another savegame [HdRumble=1](Mission complete) it codes the value [PurpleNinesWichGrd=0] (Nines do not appear). The solution is to remove all the savegames where mission "Rumble" is complete from the GTA III User Files directory. Then the game will not code the values above.

A notification to all who play the Chain Game: It is a good idea to be able to access all 3 islands from the beginning of the game and having a Dodo for this is a brilliant thing. That's why I would ask all players to bring the Dodo, Mr Whoopee and Blista to Portland Docks garage as soon as possible.

Well, don't disappoint too much. Either those 3 missions or more Firefighter missions will get us Mr Whoopee in no time. You can do the Firefighter to get Mr Whoopee next time it's your turn or you might want or assist us in bringing the game through these 3 missions - it's up to you. But now just think about what I said and what you could do.

==================================================

New request: Now that we have access to the Dodo, let's try to use it to collect the hidden package atop the Staunton Lift Bridge before opening Shoreside, if at all possible.

Also, let's bring the Enforcer to the Emergency Vehicle Crane - that will be easy, only needed to attain the 4-star wanted level.

I don't know if anybody before me noticed this, so I'll post. Before "Grand Theft Aero" is complete, every time I enter Miguel's mansion, I see a grey Banshee parked in the garage. However, after this mission it disappears and appears nevermore. The same happened today when I was making a turn for the Chain Game. I was on Shoreside and when entered the mansion, I saw the same grey Banshee. So I decided to take it and put it into the Shoreside garage.

Unique Vehicles List

The following vehicles are unique, and therefore most of them can only be acquired once during the game. I would like the GTA III Chain Game players to add some of these vehicles to the garages, because some of them have unique properties that may be very helpful during the course of the game. The following list shows the condition of aquisitability at the start of the game, right after the "Give Me Liberty" mission has been triggered.

Note that the FBI Car cannot be acquired until Staunton Island has been unlocked, along with the 5-star Wanted Level

1. Pale Green Kuruma (UC) - During "Give Me Liberty"
2. Payroll Van (BP/FP) - During "Van Heist"
3. Manana with corpse in the trunk (UV) - during "Dead Skunk In The Trunk"

6. Leone Black Limo (BP/DP/EP/FP/UC) - during "Salvatore's Called A Meeting"
7. Leone Black Limo (UC) - during "Salvatore's Called A Meeting" & "Chaperone"
8. Dust Cart (BP/FP/UC) - during "Blow Fish"
9. FBI Black Rumpo (UC) - during "Under Surveillance"
10. Dark-red Cheetah (UC) - during "Grand Theft Auto"

I think the real problem that you face is that nobody, sadly, plays the game.
I really thought it was going to be more popular.

[lol232]

Forget about Mr.Wongs van,found him on streets near Wongs Laudary!
Anyways I foudn Greyish Green Banshee on streets too!
I think better get Mafia sentinel to Staunton and Then Get Manna in this Portland OK?

But after 'Last Requests' 'Dead Skunk In The Trunk' will become unaccessible! What then, my friend, what then?

Today I'm introducing the Liberty City Gangs Status graph in the GTA III Chain Game. You can use it to know which gangs like Claude and which do not. Also, note that those gangs that hate Claude will attack him on sight, so watch your back in their turfs.

I have an issue I would like to discuss. See, on Portland we have a garage space for only one car, and during Portland mission block we encounter 3 unique vehicles, of which we can keep only one. So which one is better for keeping?

• Pale Green Kuruma from "Give Me Liberty"
• Bulletproof/Fireproof Payroll Van from "Van Heist"
• Manana with body in the trunk from "Dead Skunk In The Trunk"

Note that I didn't count Bulletproof/Explosionproof/Fireproof Cheetah form "Turismo", since it can be acquired after opening Staunton Island.

Also, I didn't mention the Dust Cart and Leone Black Limos - both the All-proof and the Regular ones, because these will definitely require a transportation to Staunton Island and beyond once they are snatched.

Today I'm introducing the Hideout Items List graph in the GTA III Chain Game. You can use it to know which items are available from hideouts and which are still not. Note that unavailable items will have information on how to unlock them in the brackets next to the item's name.
