Spyder - depending on how far you are, take a helicopter into the base, to the back area where the Apache (called the Hunter) is , theres a fence that will stop the military shooters from getting to you. Just jump outta your chopper and run like hell to the Apache and you will get it =)

You need to change into a police uniform in order to get in without incident. The uniform is at one of the police stations.

I just fly a helicopter over the area where the apache is and then jump out and hopefully land next to the apache and fly off.

lol I've still got a long way to go in this game. The last time I checked I had only finished 11%, but since then I've finished a few more missions.

Here's some XviD clips (but the fourcc is "divx") for your delight. If you're a noob, just install DivX; if not, you already know what to do.

Spin (512KB) - a jump with huge rotation and a new personal best of 889?. When I first found this spot, I did a similar jump that had a flip and landed fine.

Distance (1MB) - a new personal record with a distance of 280' even though I flew into a wall.

Kaboom (524KB) - my bike got trapped from the distance jump...

Wheee (1MB) - just a smooth jump that ends with a bang.

Hunter (4MB) - in case anybody wants to see the "ultimate vehicle" in action. Looking back through the video, I have no idea what actually happened to me. Perhaps I was to close to my own rockets :-/

The paramedic mission sucks...

I've got to level 9 at highest but the ambulance broke.

Firetruck and Vigilante(with Apache) is already finished. Success on first attempt but this paramedic junk just SUCKS.

I can't take this buggy piece of **** game anymore...

I'm at like 93%,

All I have left is a couple of side missions and the rampages (25 remaining).

The view distance just sucks... I set to MAX but it still use MIN!!! ARGH!

And the stupid drivers doesn't do anything when I come with my ambulance in crossings, they just stand and wait for green light!

Rockstar! FFS! You've spent YEARS on this game, why can't you just spend extra 10 minutes to fix these annoying things?!

With the paramedic missions I found I always had loads of time so you can just drive carefully around and should still be able to complete it. I'm starting to get annoyed with the last 3 unique stunts I have to do now as thats all I need to get 100% and i can't do them.

How do you guys record the videos? Cause there are some sweet things that I would like to show some people.

I second that question. How is it done? I just want to record a lot and then cut it down so that I can show you guys some sweet stunts and such.

Also, no one will beat my distance record. Unless its me. Im going to try to right now. :laugh:

Actually, I was able to beat your record but I blew up before I could hit the print screen key... it was 320 ft on that same jump as before. I finally stopped crashing into that damn wall. Now I just keep tieing your record (about 5 times) so here's one of my tie distance.

You can create videos using fraps. It saves them uncompressed in YUV colorspace so they get pretty big so don't start recording until you're about to do a trick. You also need to play the game at 640x480 or else it will only record the top-left corner. Things will be a bit laggy while you record mostly becuase of your hard drive. And last off, it will look a whole lot better if you turn on FSAA and that shouldn't effect your recording speed very much.

Oh, and in case this wasn't a no brainer for some of you, re-encode the video to XviD/DivX using Virtual Dub.
