Grand Theft Auto 4 (GTA 4) Message Board  

The helo chase missions are extremely difficult for alot of us, I'm told you can't make a cheat too fly faster than the helo you're chasing.Would it be posible to make a cheat that alows you to fly further from the target,in other words have the target circle go solid red when you a greater distance away?I've noticed in all the game chase sequences as long as you have a solid red circle while chasing the target you never get a lost target mission fail message.

It can't be that hard just turn of Numlock then use 8 to go forward 4 6 stear right left.

that just wouldnt work, what would work and i am not saying this could or couldnt be added to a trainer or not but what would help those missions would be a slow motion option that option there got me through the GTA:SA flying missions, slow motion was a beautiful thing for that game. But really this game isnt that hard i have beaten the game, once you get the hang of flying you'll get past those missions no problem....

I don't know anything about programing so It was just a suggestion.I thought maybe the minimum distance to target could be raised somehow.I've tried the Paper Chase mission over 50 times and can't seem to stay close enough to the target long enough to get to the shoot down part.I,ve used keyboard,mouse,and X-box controller and failed with all of them.My Dexterity is poor due to my bad Arthritis.I'll just chalk this game off as one I can never finish.The CH trainers have made it possible for me to finish most of the games I'ved purchased so I can't complain if they can't come up with a cheat for every game mission thats to hard for me and my Physical handicap to complete.

sorry to hear all that perhaps you can keep an eye on GTAFORUM.com and see if someone makes a mod or script that can do a similar function that can help you complete the game.

Just an idea as well, good luck

Also, while it may not be the ultimately practical solution for everyone, I was highly impressed by how well the Xbox 360 controller for Windows works... went from clumsy "digital flying" to nearly a master chopper pilot the second I picked up the controller. Also, the game happily lets you go back and forth between controller and keyboard/mouse without changing anything, you just start using one or the other and it is already following the orders, and will instantly display the relevant button options for certain actions based on whether you're currently using a keyboard/mouse or the controller.

(it's just simultaneous assignment, but much appreciated compared to the days of old where you had to actually switch control schemes in an option menu and then go back to the game)

In my mind, it's too expensive for it to be worth it on the one game, but being that I've been playing a lot of platformer games lately, and old EMU's never loose their charm, the controller was a worth-while purchase for today's overall needs and into the future. It being wireless is just icing on the cake.

imo the chasing heli mission was easy... used the numpad tho... matter of the person playing but you can take some shortcuts so you dont have to go aropund certain buildings... what i did
