Cheat Codes
Cheat mode
Enter one of the following codes during game play to
activate the corresponding cheat function. The message "Cheat
Activated" will appear to confirm correct code entry.
The codes can also be activated at the menu screen (press [Esc]
during game play) to avoid having your character moving around
while they are being entered.
Note: Codes can be entered multiple times. For example, keep typing gunsgunsguns etc. to have more ammunition as well as all guns. The giveusatank code can only be activated four times.

Unlimited ammunition
Hold the pistol and enable the gunsgunsguns repeatedly. You will eventually have unlimited ammunition for any gun that you have to reload. If you are wasted or busted, the code must be repeated.
Ammunition limit
Activating the gunsgunsguns code repeatedly does not give you unlimited ammunition. To demonstrate this, take out a gun and keep enabling the gunsgunsguns code until you have as close to 9,999 rounds as possible. Then, enable the code one more time and you will not be able to see it anymore. Keep shooting your gun. After awhile, you will see your ammunition count again.
Change car attributes
Note: This procedure involves editing a game file;
create a backup copy of the file before proceeding. Use a text
editor to edit the "handling.cfg" file in the "\rockstar
games\gta3\data" folder. You can change the various attributes
(speed, weight, etc.) of any car. Read the text in the "handling.cfg"
file for an explanation of what can be changed.
Change weapon attributes
Note: This procedure involves editing a game file;
create a backup copy of the file before proceeding. Use a text
editor to edit the "weapon.cfg" file in the "data"
sub-folder in the game directory. You can change the various attributes
(reload time, ammunition, damage, etc.) of any weapon . Read the
text in the "weapon.cfg" file for an explanation of
what can be changed.
Increase car acceleration
Note: This procedure involves editing a game file;
create a backup copy of the file before proceeding. Use a text
editor to edit the "handling.cfg" file in the "data"
sub-folder in the game directory. When you open that file, you
will see a table which has vehicle names in rows (Such as LANDSTAL,
IDAHO, STINGER, etc.) and alphabetic characters in columns. For
example, to increase the maximum speed and acceleration of the
Rhino tank, choose column N, Row "RHINO" and change
its value to "200.0". This will set the Rhino tank's
maximum speed to 200K mph . Select column O in the same row and
change its value to "33.0" ,which will make its acceleration
higher. This method can be tricky, but if done correctly, your
tank can fly. Note: Enable the cornerslikemad code to increase
the handling of the tank.

Listen to radio stations at any time
If you have sufficient hard drive space, you can listen
to the radio stations at any desired time. Insert the "Play"
disc then click on "My Computer" and click on your CD
drive. Enter the "Audio" folder to access a group of
.WAV and .MP3 files. You can listen to any mission, radio station,
or event. Copy them to your hard drive for smoother playback.
You can hear everything (pedestrians, crashes, horns, etc) with
a file on your hard drive in the "audio" folder in the
game directory. There is a file called "sfx.raw" that
can be opened in a .WAV file editor. Change the sampling rate
to a lower setting and there will be a very long audio clip of
everything there is to be heard in the game.
Custom music
Copy some of your favorite MP3 files into the "mp3"
folder in the game folder. Start the game and you will have a
new radio station titled "mp3 player". Choose it to
hear your own selections.
Instead of copying your MP3 files to the "mp3" folder,
just create shortcuts using Windows Explorer to the files inside
your existing folder with MP3 files. The game will play all MP3
files the shortcuts are pointing to. This is very useful if you
have large libraries of MP3s on CD and do not have the hard drive
space for them.
Custom skin
Open the "skin" folder in the main game folder.
Copy the skin "playa2.bmp" into any desired folder,
then rename it "playa3.bmp". Open the "playa3.bmp",
into MS Paint, Adobe Photo Shop, or another graphics
program. Re-color and customize it as desired, then copy it back
into the "skin" folder in the main game folder. Start
the game, go into "Player Options", and choose your
new skin.

More cars in garage
You can fit more cars in your hideout's garage than
you are supposed to. In district two, the garage should only hold
two cars but you can fit four in (or five if they are small).
Park the first two besides each other next to the wall. Then,
park each car after that next to the door. Get out and the door
will open. Quickly drive the car in before the door shuts. Now
all three or four cars are saved. In order for this to work you
need to park them very close together.
Change size of moon
Use a sniper rifle and aim at the moon. Shoot the moon and it will get bigger. When you shoot it again, it will get smaller.

Survive when under a car
When someone runs over you with a car and you are stuck in the bottom, you will usually die. If you want to survive, press [Esc] to pause game play. Enable the turtoise and
gesundheit codes, then enable the bangbangbang code. Press [Esc] to resume game play, then quickly press G to destroy the car. Then, enable the turtoise or gesundheit codes to get full health.
Get to any of the other islands early
Go back to the bridge and walk past the road block without a car. When you get far enough up the road, enable the giveusatank code and turn the gun so it is pointing behind
the tank. Enable the chittychittybb code, then shoot the cannon and drive until you fly off the bridge. If done correctly, you will hover over the broken part onto the other side.
Start a new game and do the Give Me Liberty, and Luigi's Girls missions. Then, get a fast car and enable the chittychittybb and cornerslikemad codes. Once you are able to jump the Callahan Bridge (the one that is broken apart) and get to Staunton Island, save the game. Then, drive to the stadium on Staunton Island. Once you are near it, look for a tunnel with signs above it that read "Shoreside Vale", and "Portland". Follow that tunnel and turn left when you get the chance. Take that road and follow it until you get to the end. You are now in Shoreside Vale.
Intentionally die and end up at the hospital. Walk up the steps on to the road and get a car (or taxi if possible). Opposite the hospital is the University. Drive down the hill and take the left in to the University before the T-junction. Do a 180 degree turn so that the back of your car is at the top of the steps. Enable the cornerslikemad code, then drive forward and jump over the fence. If done correctly, you should end up on a platform. To your left should be a wall that is tiled. Move forward into the glass slowly. Your car will enter the glass wall and you will drop in the tunnels used in later missions.
Enable the chittychittybb code near a bridge, build up speed, and fly over. Note: You can continue to bring cars in and out of the islands, but every new car needs a code. For better
chances, the enable cornerslikemad and press [Shift] to jump off the edge.
Enable the giveusatank and chittychittybb codes. Get in the Rhino tank and rotate the cannon barrel so that it is facing the rear of the tank. Drive to any long, straight strech
of road. Accelerate while firing the cannon continually without stopping. Eventually, you will lift of the ground. Continue accelerating and shooting while in the air. With practice you can fly to and from the three islands with ease.
Staunton Island: Make all cars disappear from the multi-story parking lot
Go to the multi-story parking lot and get in one of the cars. It does not matter what car you get in, as long as it is from the parking lot. Get in the car and drive to the top. Drive it onto the ramp. Do not go over the edge. Get out of the car and get on top of it. As soon as you get on the roof of the car, it should disappear and so should all the cars from the parking
lot.
