What part are you having trouble with? Make sure to fully close the app when replacing save files in ifunbox. Also me and some modders on gtaforums discovered that resuming your game on a basketball court stops the basketballs from spawning permanently. Never close the app while on a basketball court! Thankfully they hacked in and fixed up the file, new link here: http://gtasnp.com/download/40620
The load game feature is strangely placed under the "start game" button either upon startup or undera the pause menu
Well looks like I won't be playing this any over Christmas since I have the pier 69 bug and the App Store is closing.
Rockstar ports are always slow to 'patch', they farm these ports out and for all we know continued development wasn't necessarily a major part of the contract. I suggest carpet bombing the port devs with emails and a fair bit of patience. Rockstar themselves obviously couldn't care less, how long has Chinatown Wars been ganked from the App Store now? For a silly little iOS 7 bug?
Haven't managed to play this much yet but it seems a lot easier than the console version. Did the wrong side of the tracks missions just as I reached that first tunnel so about 20 seconds into the missions.
PEOPLE WHO HAVE IT- is there any other graphics setting or adjustment. I don't care about the graphic too much, I just want to play this on iphone 4. If so, then it's possible to.
I remember on VC there were alterations you could make to the game files to increase/decrease draw distance, reduce sfx and stuff like that. Not sure if you can with this, but worth a try.
Gamesaves I would like a saved game with all service completed missions. Do you think it would go somewhere to download and upload to Ipad?
This is a guide for the Vice City iOS version, but should translate similarly to SA as well. To complete, you will need iExplorer or a similar program to that; a Hex editor and the gta_sa.set file. Open the .set in the Hex editor. Then change the settings to suit.
Having zero problems on my ipad mini retina. Looks great, plays great, no framerate or crashing issues.
Anyone else having a lot of trouble on a 4s? I know it's not the newest device, but I'm sure that a better frame rate is possible. It often feels like I'm at less than 10 FPS, which results in some missions being ridiculously hard.
It's ios 7. A youtuber named Andriansen did a ios 6 vs. ios 7 comparison video with an IPHONE 4. Way faster on ios 6. Apple has problems that they don't seem to care to fix. Oh well. Try resetting your device.
That's too bad. I know a lot of people hate iOS 7, but I like it. Well, I like the look. The slowdowns/glitches aren't too great. I've tried restarting my phone and quitting all open programs and all that stuff, but the change is minimal and only lasts a few minutes. I have San Andreas on my prehistoric Macbook, and the framerate isn't great. I was hoping to be able to play it normally on my phone, since GTA III and VC all work better on my phone than on my computer. How disappointing. Hopefully an update to iOS 7 or San Andreas can make things at least a bit better.
Saying that the newest OS is to blame instead of outdated hardware is funny. Runs smoothly for me on iOS 7. Crashed once when I tried to acces the map. That's it. iPhone 4 is an old hardware and it's surprising that it even got iOS 7. Mine was much better with it than with iOS 6 which was the worst of the bunch (4,5,6 and 7)
