Route

This is just a quick overview, with notes that are relevant to the overall route (e.g. "Pick up X for use in mission Y") that might not be obvious. How to do stuff in detail is probably best learned from recent runs. Notes on individual missions can be found when clicking on the mission name (read that for some of the stuff not so obvious from watching runs).

Missions that can only be started at certain times are indicated by e.g. @20-6, which means the mission can only be started between 8pm and 6am.

Duping is indicated by (2x) behind the mission name, which you can also click to get more information on that specific dupe.

Los Santos

A big problem with routing in Los Santos are the missions you can only start at a certain time. Especially OG Loc's missions, that are far away from CJ's house (so you can't save to correct the time).

1. Big Smoke
   • Get a handgun for use in Cleaning The Hood
   • Get a Police Bike for RTLS if possible
2. Ryder
3. Tagging up the Turf
4. Cleaning The Hood
   • Use the gun picked up during Big Smoke to kill the Drugdealers.
   • Get a Police Bike for RTLS if possible
5. Drive-Thru
6. Nines And AK's
7. OG Loc
8. Life's a Beach @22-6
9. Running Dog

    • Pick up the MicroSMG ammo so you have enough for Wrong Side of the Tracks
12. Cesar Vialpando
13. High Stakes Low-Rider
14. Madd Dogg's Ryhmes
15. Management Issues
16. House Party (Cutscene)
17. Burning Desire
    • At the start of the mission, enter the police car to get a Shotgun for sliding in Home Invasion
18. Wrong Side of the Tracks
    • You need at least 50 SMG ammo, more is safer (Backup Strat: There is an SMG at the train station behind some walls to the right of the marker)

    • After the mission go north to the carpark and get the NRG on the 2nd floor as well as the grenades on the 3rd floor

28. The Green Sabre

Badlands

1. Badlands
2. Bustedwarp to Dillimore
3. Tanker Commander
   • If you did the Bustedwarp, you won't have any weapons to kill yourself for the Deathwarp after this mission. While you wait for Catalina to finish talking, you can look out for a cop to run over or if there is none quickly get the gun from the Police Station.
4. Deathwarp to Angel Pine
5. Body Harvest
   • If you did the Deathwarp, you won't have any weapons to kill yourself for the Deathwarp after this mission, so get a rifle from the farm you steal the Combine Harvester from.
6. Deathwarp to Angel Pine
7. King in Exile (Cutscene)
8. Bustedwarp to Dillimore
9. Small Town Bank
   • Go to Ammunation to buy Rifle-Ammo to be used in Local Liquor Store (Micro-SMG ammo might be useful as backup, and maybe Armor)
10. Local Liquor Store
11. Against all Odds
    • Pick up the 15 additional Satchel charges in the alley to the right of the entrance of the Betting Shop. Can be used for Are You Going To San Fierro? and for stuff until LV when duping
12. Wu Zi Mu
13. Farewell My Love...
14. Are You Going To San Fierro?
    • Use the Satchel Charges picked up during Against All Odds to burn the weed.

    • If necessary, save before the setup to be able to start Ice Cold Killa
16. Ice Cold Killa @20-6
    • Required for Pier 69, which is right next to Amphibious Assault
    • If later than 02:00, save to get to 20:00, so AA can still be started after the mission and duping setup

18. Pier 69
19. Toreno's Last Flight
    • Requires at least one rocket left from Outrider

20. Yay Ka-Boom-Boom
21. Monster
    • Get rid of all your SMG ammo by drive-by shooting at convenient spots (straight, not traffic) during the mission, so you don't have to shoot it during the duping setup on the bike

23. Highjack (2x) → skips Interdiction
24. Duping Setup (Blood Bowl) (from the garage after Highjack)

Las Venturas

1. Learning To Fly

    • After the mission, save to set time to 12-20 [with Black Project dupe] or 15-23 [without], to get the timing right for Black Project. This is with decent execution (and some margin of error), substract 1 from both numbers in the range if you expect to be 1 minute slower. If necessary, you can also save at the airfield, however that is a fair bit slower.
11. Madd Dogg

Details

Badlands Bustedwarp

On the route from Angel Pine to Catalina, which you have to do twice in Badlands, there is a chance for a Bustedwarp. It is possible because you don't have any weapons that you definately want to keep (since you loose all your weapons when being busted).

You drive from Angel Pine to the small street that runs along the highway and get busted there, so you teleport to Dillimore.
