The missions do count for more than 50% of the game but not much more. A lot of the stuff you need to do to get 100% completion is non-mission related. In addition to the stuff I listed earlier there are also several mini-missions/races: RC missions: RC Plane Race (Vice Point Mall carpark - top level) RC Car Race (At the dirt bike track at the north end of Vice Point Beach) RC Helicopter Pickup (Near the southernmost entrance to Escobar International Airport) Helicopter checkpoint missions: Ocean Beach Vice Point Downtown Little Haiti Other checkpoint missions: PCJ Playground (follow the road north from the Ocean Beach Hotel and where the road curves left there is a lage white building on the right hand side. Get on PCJ bike parked next to this building to start the mission) Cone Crazy (get into Stallion parked on top level of multistory parking garage in Washington Beach) Trial by dirt (race a Sanchez bike at the dirt track on the northeast tip of the western half of downtown Vice City) Test Track (same as above but with Landstalker) There are also several races that you can enter at Sunshine Autos which you need to win. You also need to rob 15 stores in the city e.g. pharmacies, hardware stores, jewelery stores etc (NOT Ammunation shops) You probably also need to have stats recorded for doing wheelies, stoppies and driving on 2 wheels. I've also got stats recorded for 'keepy uppy ball' and 'seagulls sniped' (but not 'fishes fed' - I reloaded the game if I drowned) but I don't think they were necessary for the 100% completion. There really is a lot to do apart from the missions if you want 100%.

It never went up when I knocked people into the water by punching them or caused them to run into the water by scaring them. I have heard that if you jump aboard a boat then the person driving the boat leaps overboard and this supposedly adds to the number of 'Fishes Fed' but I don't know if it's true. To be honest, though, I've got 100% with a 'Fishes Fed' stat of 0 so I don't think it's worth losing sleep over.

Use the health cheat (R1, R2, L1, O, L, D, R, U, L, D, R, U) while in the car and your car will be automatically fixed (but the damage will still be visible. ------------------ [VC Helicopter Guide]
