i have another question
i think this is where i messed up my game
its where u have to do this:
3) Inside the data folder in the vice directory open the gta_vc.dat and do the following...
find the line: IDE DATA\MAPS\haitin\haitin.IDE
Add this line after it: IDE data\maps\respawn.ide
find the line: COLFILE 0 MODELS\COLL\GENERIC.COL
add this line after it: COLFILE 0 data\maps\respawn.col
find the line: IPL DATA\MAPS\mansion\mansion.IPL
add this line after it: IPL data\maps\respawn.ipl
how far do i add it from the original thing(how many spaces,tabs,etc.)

You add IPL data\maps\respawn.ipl just under IPL DATA\MAPS\mansion\mansion.IPL, (no tabs or anything). If it doest work either try to put the line under IPL DATA\MAPS\stadint\stadint.IPL it might do the trick.
Also, check that the files are really in the place where they supposed to be. (ex. check that respawn.ipl is really in data\maps\ not in any other folder)
Let us know how it goes...

I'm also having problems with REspawn, albeit different problems
I downloaded the one from www.gtagaming.com and went ahead with installing it, only I can't get past the part that says "1) Open up the gta3.img in the models forlder of your vice city directory.
Then group select the entire contents of the "ADD TO IMG" folder."
When I try to open gta3.img using the included tool it says: "Cannot open file: D:\Program Files\Rockstar\Grand Theft Auto Vice City\models\gta3.dir" which is weird because i'm trying to open gta3.img
When I open gta3.img with IMGTool, it opens and lists Radar00.txd ... and says at the bottom "Archive Loaded / 6043 Files" I then go to Commands > Add and select the contents of the ADD to IMG folded. When I click Open it says "File Access Denied" so I click Ok. Then the hourglass comes up and at the bottom it says Adding 1/90. . . but doesn't seem to do anything. After a while if I leave it, it closes automatically.
I initially skipped this part of the directions because it didn't say to add them or anything.
So I Went on to step 2: "2) You now need to move the contents of the "ADD TO MAPS" folder to the maps folder
that is located inside the data directory of you vice folder."

Step 3: "3) Inside the data folder in the vice directory open the gta_vc.dat and do the following...
find the line: IDE DATA\MAPS\haitin\haitin.IDE
Add this line after it: IDE data\maps\respawn.ide
find the line: COLFILE 0 MODELS\COLL\GENERIC.COL
add this line after it: COLFILE 0 data\maps\respawn.col
find the line: IPL DATA\MAPS\mansion\mansion.IPL
add this line after it: IPL data\maps\respawn.ipl"
Completed Successfully
Step 4: "4) Still inside the data folder locate a file called "object.dat", make a backup copy
of this file and then replace the old one with the one included in this folder."
Completed Successfully
Step 5: "5) Open the img tool again and then open gta3.img again, then do the following...
search for: radar49.txd
replace this with the radar49.txd inside the "RADAR" folder
search for: radar56.txd
replace this with the radar56.txd inside the "RADAR" folder
search for: radar57.txd
replace this with the radar57.txd inside the "RADAR" folder"
Competed Successfully
And Step 6: PLay the Game Also works. Only on the first island, there's the blasted out building covering the twin condo complex and somewhere in Little Haiti there's a floating room going on. Also where I suppose the new area is added, there's floating trees on the water 4 houses and some streetlights on the ocean. ALso there's a construction thing.
