Timer for speedrun

Attention! This mod requires AMLto work, as the mod uses a file to save results. You can download AML from this site.

This mod is a built-in timer for GTA SA speedrun. Suitable for both Any% and 100%. Works automatically, saving splits after missions. When loading a save, it continues to work from the interrupted stage, so you can complete the game with breaks. When replaying, the mod will guide you through the saved splits. In addition to missions, various key points are used as checkpoints, such as the beginning of the parking attendant missions, couriers, repelling districts, ambulance in Angel Pine, the top of Chiliad, etc. In addition to the above-mentioned default checkpoints, you can add up to 5 checkpoints at your discretion. To do this, stand at the desired point and hold the sprint button and the top middle of the screen for 3 seconds. On the next load, this checkpoint will work.

INI file Speedrun.ini, which is used by the mod, is located in the folder Files. In it, you can change the location of the timer on the screen: [fsys]/PosX, PosY. You can also reset all splits if you set [fsys]/exist=0. You can simply delete the file Speedrun.ini, it will be reset and created again, but at the same time, the race records and your personal checkpoints will be deleted. Keep in mind that when passing the first mission, the checkpoints are updated — this is necessary so that the mod knows which ones you have passed and which ones you have not. So don't get carried away with loading different saves and simultaneously passing different stages of the game. If necessary, you can edit the splits in the file itself, they are indicated in seconds. Personal checkpoints are in the [personal] section. If you want to delete them, set the value to 0.

Cesar's call in San Fierro is disabled, because he randomly gives a mission, even if you refused.

In the folder !extra you can find several useful files. The most important of them is another small mod called aml_fix.csa. Unfortunately, in addition to the advantages, AML also has several disadvantages that do not allow you to pass the game 100%.

Mod aml_fix.csa fixes these shortcomings:

1. The cranes in the docks and on the career did not work. Now a forward movement button (sprint) has been added, allowing you to somehow manipulate the cranes and pass the missions. The joystick widget is at the bottom of the screen.
2. The simulators in the gym did not work. Now, just by being in the gym, you get muscle growth. (35% is required to study combat styles). I tried to adjust the growth rate to the use of the simulator.
3. There was a problem with the appearance of cars. For example, by default, the Cheetah car is taken on the mission "555 we tip". But in AML it does not appear. In addition, the Patriot car is taken at the military base, but due to 5 stars, it has become almost impossible to take it. Now these and some other cars will simply stand in certain places. Patriot — near the San Fierro military base. Cheetah — in the parking lot near the northern part of the construction site. Slamvan — in the parking lot near the courier mission (San Fierro). Remington — near Angel Pine, in a dirt parking lot at the northern exit. Journey — in Angel Pine in the parking lot in the northern part. I added these cars because of the features of the mobile version, such as the inability to use replay to load the car model, or respawn cars by moving the camera.
4. There is no button to open the parachute. This problem is not affected by aml_fix, I will just say that the parachute opens with a double click in the area of ​​the health bar (at least on the tablet).

Other files in the folder !extra:

• lite-unbug.csa — a small mod for those who use the lite version of the game with cutscenes. If you encounter a bug where you can't get into the car at the beginning of some missions, this mod will help you.
• handling.cfg — almost the original handling.cfg with small neat changes. First of all, the speed limit of motorcycles has been changed. It is increased as if you were crouching, because you cannot crouch when controlling the buttons, and you lose speed. The TurningMass Card has been changed, as a result of which it has ceased to be uncontrollable, the same applies to the Buggy. The TurningMass Banshee has been slightly reduced, as a result of which it turns better during the passage of the driving school. This is done because it is quite problematic to set it perfectly with a wheel on the springboard in the mobile version.
• GTASAsf1.b — a save that will help you learn collectible objects, such as oysters, horseshoes, photos and graffiti. The game has been completed up to the jetpack, but not a single item has been collected, except for a few graffiti that are performed during the third mission. You can even set checkpoints in the right places and try to collect these items for a while.

Installation:

• copy the com.rockstargames.gtasa folder to Android\/Data (the folder !extra is not required for the mod to work)

I also recommend two other mods of mine for controlling cars and the character, they help a lot, and I use them myself (AML is not required for them):
Improved character control
Improved car control
