Realism mod

Any suggestions on how to beat Tour de Farce? After five-hours of trying I can get through the concert part about two-thirds of the time, only to get wasted by the helicopters. I've tried using the inside of Planet Saints, the side of it, the docks and anything else I can find for cover, but I always die. The most annoying points about it: there's no checkpoint after the concert (stupidest decision of the mission design) and not being allowed to kill Jimmy. Heck, I even tried the 'can't die' cheat and end up getting knocked out of range of Pierce and Jimmy without even the slightest chance to get a shot off because of how quickly the rockets come in.


Hmm I remember having problems at the heli part too and I didn't have the no ragdoll from explosions upgrade all you have to do is to learn where all the choppers come from and shoot them down before they launch rockets at you...I remember staying at the docks behind the stage.

I thought that would do it, but I kept getting knocked into the water by knock-back. My best try was from hugging the Planet Saints building. I got down to 2 helicopters before dying. It took 3 hits to down a helicopter and the one helicopter with a shot nailed me after 2.

At any rate, I've resolved to go back and try later after buying more upgrades
 
On a totally different topic, in your next release would it be possible for you to remove the DLC freebies from the crib like you did with the weapons? Wardrobe and garage vehicles shouldn't be given out free in my opinion. I can understand you might not want to, but it's a wish item of mine I'd implement if I could find the bloody file that dictates what you have in your crib at the beginning of the game. That and if I could figure out how to mod the game. Maybe later after I've played it more.

The only DLC things I removed were the overpowered vehicles from Spec Ops DLC and all the DLC weapons.The Genki manapult with the Nyteblade pack vehicles aren't so OP so that's why I kept them but for the clothes I don't know if I remove them then I will have to add them to one of the clothing stores...maybe Let's Pretend?haven't thought about it yet.Now I'm trying to find a way to make the Genki manapult to get unlocked when you finish the some of the Genki activities.

Also the specter from the Moneyshot pack with the Ultor signs on it hasn't been removed because the Saints merged with Ultor so they received some new tech from the corporation.
 
xQd, I already tried this. You can remove any clothing unlock from dlc1.vpp_pc and add it to the stores with no problem. We also tested and confirmed that users who do not own the DLC do not have the clothes show up at the stores.

But, you cannot do this with any dlc clothes that came later in dlc2.vpp_pc or dlc3.vpp_pc. Adding their entries to the store will crash the game. It's because those dlc items get loaded after all the main game files, like customization_stores.xtbl that contains the clothing list that is for sale.

Thanks for the information but I don't have any plans to mess with any files from the dlc1.vpp_pc and I was refering to the costumes from Moneyshot DLC,Nyteblade,etc...

By the way why can't the screenshots be seen?

The screenshots can't be seen because img tags like you're trying to do need direct links to them. You would need to use this link:

Also, I messed up. dlc1.vpp_pc doesn't work either. What I meant to say is that clothing doesn't work that's located in any of the dlc* archives. The initial release of SRTT had a lot of dlc that was part of the actual game archives though, like the bling pack, money shot, etc. These work just fine in the stores. Sorry for any confusion. Hope that's clear now. (I blame lack of coffee.)
