Ok...
I've just completed the mission where I take lance and put this bomb in the
mall.
This happened right after that mission, and when I received the the $ bonus
at the Vercitti Estate
Now that I completed the mall mission, there are no missions that I can find
to do on the map.

What am I doing wrong?
Do I need to wait for a cell call?

HELP!

Thanks,
Bio

Man, there's tons left to do.  Buy up all the property and do those
missions.  Did you do all the Avery and Cortez missions?  Also, you can do
the phone missions.  You can't go any further in the actual story line until
you complete all the property missions, if I remember correctly.

My favorite part was buying the Malibu club and doing those side missions
... I won't spoil it, but it's the coolest part of the game, really.  Plus,
that will open up some more missions.  Just cruise around until you see  a
place to buy and then pick it up.  There'll be a pink marker near or in a
place after you buy it.

You could also do side missions: Taxi, Ambulance, Fire truck, Police car,
etc..

Did you do the Voodoo lady missions?  I can't remember if that's around the
same time as the mall mission.  There's also the missions you get at the
cafe.  Umm... I can't remember more at the moment, but I assure you there's
way more to do.

Nah you still have not finished the missions on the vercetti mansion,
there are a few of them.

there is a start point on the balcony at the front to the left of the
main steps outside (above the garage), one in the room to the right as
you enter, and one at the top of the main stairs inside. cant remember
what order they are in. the one outside is easy to miss as it is in a
place you normally dont go.

once you have done the mission where you have to shoot out all the
windows in the mall, you can buy properties. and away you go.

Think you need to start spending some money and buying up properties.  Like
the Strip club, the Malibu nightclub and so on.  All these come with their
own set of missions.
Bio Hazard - 20 Jan 2004 18:01 GMT
Ahhh...
So basically I need to start spending $.

If you find, as I did, that you reach the point where you need to buy
properties, but you haven't really saved any/much money to do it with (these
properties are quite expensive, except the boat docks which are only $10K),
I found the fire truck missions filled my coffers the quickest.  As you
progress in levels, you get paid more and more, and the job becomes pretty
lucrative by just the 3rd level or so.

After a while money should not be a problem.  I've purchased
everything except for the Cab company, get somewhere around
$36,000/day off my properties alone and have almost $300,000 in the
vault.

I haven't gone around collecting my income ever since I made $2,000,000
in a +40-level vigilante streak. If I somehow ever need money again, I
will go back and try for another...

Where is the vigilate mission?  I'll be looking around after I finish
the cab company.  Which is the last thing left.

any vehicle with (Vigilante Mission) after its name and press the relevant
button to start the vigilante mission.

read the message that comes up... it tells you which button to press.

Sweet.  Did you use the Hunter for that?

Related question:  I have nearly all the hidden items to unlock the Hunter
before the end of the game, but I'm missing 2.  I followed the standard FAQ
and map to retrieve the rest, but 2 of them were not where the FAQ said they
would be (the item out by the beach shack, and another I can't remember
right now).  The FAQ and map are for the PS2, though - are a couple of the
items in different places on the PC?  I've heard that the game isn't 100%
identical between the PS2 and PC.

Did you try looking at all of the beach shacks?  It's on the one that's east
(a bit north) of the police station.

I'll check them all, though I was pretty sure I was looking at the right one
(apparently not)...is it just sitting on the steps or porch?

Yeah, it's on the porch at the top of the few steps.  Which is the other
that you can't find?  I may be able to help since I just completed the 100
packages through a FAQ and all the locations are fresh in my mind.

Thanks for the offer.  I have my map at home (I'm posting from work), so
I'll have to refer to it and post back...

Incidentally, has anybody else noticed there are quite a few places that
"hint" at the Package locations?

The most obvious example is a painting on the wall of Apartment 3C of
one of those Lifeguard shack thingies...

Cheers,
Rob
