Well I went back with a Hunter and still couldn't get through the
planks. I reckon if you can't get through with a helicopter gunship
you probably can't get through, heh. Haven't done any Underworld
exploration yet.

It sounds like you need to do a lot more than that; Each task is only
worth approximately 0.33% in GTA:SA!

Yea I do but I was only listing the ones that are really holding me
back. I have 70 tags and that's without using a guide and only a few
pictures and oysters. I can't really justify my precious time looking
for those and if they come by they come by

when you first start the game it's a good idea to get as much of this
stuff out of the way and keep that saved game as a starting point. If
you want to be really clever though you don't waste time until the
first run through has finished and you have the two girlfriends on
100%, then you restart the game, get as much stuff as you can using
one save and always use that as a starter point. When I do this I
usually do a slow build up, like I'll do some of it and when I get
bored I'll save and then play the game for real, but that saved game
is still there and I'll go back and add some more collections. Most of
what you get is an asset in playing the game, but it can be a burden
to get it all in one go, and those girlfriend attributes can only be
gotten after one run through. I am also unsure if you have to actually
have the tags mission started properly before you can get all 100% of
them.

PS. I have NEVER finished the fire missions since GTAIII!

You can get all 100 tags before doing the tagging mission. All that happens
is that when you do start that mission, the 6 that are required for the
mission become undone again and you go back to 94 completed.

Better still, do all 100 tags whilst doing the mission, that way you've
got infinite spray.

You just have to be a bit more careful of the cops.

Aye, I thought it was something like that but the memory is not what
it once was :O)

Indeed. After "Tagging Up Turf" the game will start to spawn the spray
can in CJ's bedroom, but after about ten tags you'll need another can
so taking the time to do it in the mission ultimately *saves* you time.

Be especially careful with a one star wanted level, as often cops come
out of nowhere and it only takes one hit from a truncheon to knock CJ
on his arse and get arrested.

I recommend doing 25 - 50 at a time.


Cheers,
Rob

There's a can on a roof behind CJ's house _before_ the tagging mission.

I've got a savegame with all tags done except the tag on the Grove Street
bridge (the one the Ballas attack from on OG Loc's party) and the ones from
the tagging mission. It's how I start every SA run-through. I can't abide
doing the tags...

I think last time I breezed through it. Does the spray stay full even
if you swap it for a camera then back to spray?

yup, they are boring, whereas the oysters are just bloody awkward.
Easiest is horseshoes and snapshots, though I have more success
grabbing snapshots with cops chasing me than grabbing horseshoes,
specially that one on the signpost.
