Starter Save - Part 1 - PS2 - GTA San Andreas - complete walkthrough (showing all details) - achieving 13.37% Game Progress before doing the story missions - no cheats and no mods

In this video I did the following:
7:26 Stunt Jump 35
7:57 Stunt Jump 48
8:33 Blood Ring
10:41 Hippy Shopper asset mission

The Elgato Game Capture HD sucks!!! The video quality is horrible. I decided to upload this video anyway, just to show how bad the video quality is.

I do not recommend that anyone purchase the Elgato Game Capture HD. There are better game capture devices with better quality.

A further explanation can be found in the Mission Help section for San Andreas at GTAForums. You can also play the game with others (anyone can play). This is the link to Round #1: http://gtaforums.com/topic/234958-the-chain-game-v10/#entry3534596

This is a complete walkthrough that shows how to achieve 13.37% Game Progress before doing the story missions. The first story mission is called "In The Beginning" , and it has already been completed. That mission is really just a cut-scene that shows Carl leaving Liberty City, and then arriving in San Andreas, where he's accosted by Tenpenny and Pulaski.

A Starter Save is when all side-missions, collectables, etc are completed prior to doing the mission 'Big Smoke' .
Normally that would also include maxing out all of Carl's skills, money, etc, but this video is limited to essentials. All of the techniques in this video were created and developed by me. I did use jheath's suggestion about using Teargas.

Here's a list of what has or will be completed, meaning some of the things on this list may not have been completed in this particular video, but in a later video instead:

C.J. has never been Wasted or Busted.

C.J. has the following:
1) He is wearing the white shorts from the Chiliad Challenge, and is marked up with tattoos from Las Ventures. He also has full muscles.
2) All available Safehouses have been purchased.

The following side-missions have been completed:
1) Firefighter Mission
2) Paramedic Mission
3) Taxi Mission
4) Pimping Mission
5) Burglary Mission
6) Vigilante Mission
7) The Roboi's Food Mart Courier Mission in Los Santos
8) The Hippy Shopper Courier Mission in San Fierro
9) The Burger Shot Courier Mission in Las Venturas

Also, the following Challenges have been completed:
1) BMX Challenge
2) Chiliad Challenge, Scotch Bonnet
3) Chiliad Challenge, Birdseye Winder
4) Chiliad Challenge, Cobra Run
5) NRG-500 Challenge

And, all of the Stadium Events have been completed:
1) 8-Track
2) Blood Ring
3) Kickstart
4) Dirt Track

In addition to all of that:
1) 100 out of 100 Tags have been sprayed
2) 50 out of 50 Snapshots have been taken
3) 50 out of 50 Oysters have been collected
4) 50 out of 50 Horseshoes have been collected
5) 70 out of 70 Unique Jumps found
6) 69 out of 70 Unique Jumps completed

There are no failed missions.
The 'Mission Attempts' total is higher than the 'Missions Passed' total due to missions such as the Chiliad Challenge which offsets both of these totals.

Fast Food places are already open, due to a disastrous date with Michelle.

The original audio message that C.J. says as he approaches Grove is still there. I used other missions to keep from triggering it.
I sprayed painted the Gang Tag that's on the base of the overpass bridge on Grove Street during those missions.

All "i" information icons are still in place.
