Authors

Several people worked on this mod. I've just cleaned it up and helped organise the work:

Install
=======
 1. Unzip (extract) the "gta1-in-gta2.zip.zip" file to your "C:\Program Files\GTA2\data\" folder.
 2. Install vike's GTA2 v11.40 or higher so the Army work in multiplayer.

Creating a Game
===============
Look in the list for:

* GTA1 Liberty City
* GTA1 London
* GTA1 Manchester
* GTA1 San Andreas
* GTA1 San Andreas Race
* GTA1 Vice City

They all support up to 6 players.


Single Player
=============
1. Start GTA2 Game Hunter v1.5 or newer:
   http://gtamp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=8
2. Click "Create Game".
3. Choose the level. (You'll see the preview images if you put them in your data folder.)
4. Click "Play Alone".


Players
=======
Host is always player 1 and the other players follow the order they joined in.

Player colours follow a different order in each level to improve visibility.


Gameplay
========
You can explore the cities in 'friendly' games with other players. Arrange point-to-point races, attack the guarded areas or just go on rampages.

If you play deathmatch, be parared for a LOT of driving between each fight.

San Andreas Race is similar to Bling Bling Scramble in GTA3. Each player races to the next checkpoint. The player who gets to the most checkpoints first is the winner. Each level will get a race mode.


Weapons
=======
The standard GTA1 weapons are given to every player and have unlimited ammo.

GTA1's weapons will be added, in the original locations but with some replacements.

Vehicle shops are included in the same positions and types as the original GTA1.

6 tanks will be added to every level.

Trains will be added to every level.
