In this section I will go into the changes made for the Haitian-Friendly
Version.

/=========================================================================\
0===========================================================================0
| V.1. Haitian References Altered Or Removed |
0===========================================================================0
\=========================================================================/

0=======0
| Change \
0=========0

References to Haitians have been either altered or removed in the following
missions:

>>"Guardian Angels" (Colonel Cortez)
>>"Two Bit Hit" (Avery Carrington)
>>"Cannon Fodder" (Umberto Robina)
>>"Naval Engagement" (Umberto Robina)
>>"Trojan Voodoo" (Umberto Robina)

In all fairness, references to Cubans have been either altered or removed
from the following missions:

>>"Juju Scramble" (Auntie Poulet)
>>"Bombs Away!" (Auntie Poulet)
>>"Dirty Lickin's" (Auntie Poulet)

This is the primary reason that the Haitian-Friendly Version exists. As I
said before, the Haitian protests were kind of silly because they waited so
long to say something. However, Rockstar made the diplomatic choice and did
the changes to appease them.

The complete scripts for all of the affected missions (except "Guardian
Angels" (Colonel Cortez)) will be presented in Section VII.

/=========================================================================\
0===========================================================================0
| V.2. Tear Gas Replacement |
0===========================================================================0
\=========================================================================/

0=======0
| Change \
0=========0

The Tear Gas Grenades that were behind the Washington Beach Police Station
have now been replaced by regular Grenades.

0======0
| Notes \
0========0

An interesting decision. The Tear Gas was hardly used and could slow down
the PS2 under the right conditions. I've heard from a couple of sources at
local game stores that the Tear Gas Grenades could really slow down the PC
Version so they took it out of later runs. So when they decided to do the
Haitian-Friendly Version for the PS2, they decided to do it here too.

/=========================================================================\
0===========================================================================0
| V.3. "Trial By Dirt" Stats Rebroken |
0===========================================================================0
\=========================================================================/

0=======0
| Change \
0=========0

The "Trial By Dirt" stat glitch which was fixed in version 2.01 appears to
have returned for version 3.00.

0======0
| Notes \
0========0

Interesting. This may have occurred while Rockstar was making changes to
the Haitian-Friendly Version. But time constraints due to the Haitian
protests may have kept them from re-fixing the bug.

One of my readers, Kenneth Lowery, wrote to me concerning differences for the
Xbox versions. After reading the previous version of this FAQ he checked the
bar code on the back of his Double Pack copy. He noticed that it was a
sticker that covered another bar code. After reading his letter I tracked
down a copy of what he determined was the Haitian-Friendly version for the
Xbox.

Just like in the PS2 versions, the Xbox versions also have the game save
incompatibility issue. However, the Xbox will make another Vice City game
save folder instead of overwriting the older one so you can have two Vice
City folders on the hard drive.

Outside of the script changes for the Haitian / Cuban missions there is only
one other change to note:

>>They fixed the Pedestrians Go Silent bug. The Pedestrians Go Silent bug was
a glitch that caused the pedestrians to go quiet even if you hit them with
a car. Unfortunately, this fix introduced more sound glitches so the game
actually sounds worse.

Xbox Bar Code data:

In addition, the Disc Ring method also works for the Xbox versions. However
the lettering is smaller and can be found in two places along the ring area:

Listed in this section are the complete scripts for the seven missions most
affected by the Haitian-American protest that led to the creation of the
Haitian-Friendly version of Vice City.

"Guardian Angels" (Colonel Cortez) isn't covered here because only a couple
of words were changed during the course of that mission.

I went and copied the sections of text from the "american.gxt" files for both
of the Original and Haitian-Friendly versions (PS2) and pasted them into new
text files. Then I went and arranged things and went over the missions to
make sure I did them right.

Each script listed are broken into two parts: Original Version and
Haitian-Friendly Version.

In-Game Text (IGT) are the instructions and information that appear during
the course of a mission.

Other Text are pieces of text that can appear during certain situations
within the mission.

The scripts are listed according to the order I did the missions for my Vice
City guide.

Avery: "Donald, you just shut up and listen, and you might learn something.
Now, nothing brings down real estate prices quicker than a good
old-fashioned gang war - 'cept maybe a disaster, like a biblical
plague or something, but, that may be going too far in this case. You
getting this down, you four-eyed prick?"

"Now recently a Haitian gang lord died. Apparently the Cubans did it,
nobody's certain. But let's make them certain! You disguise yourself
as a Cuban hombre, and head on down to crash that funeral. Mix it up,
and then high tail it. You getting this down, Donald?"

"Well, that ought to put the coyote in the chicken coop, huh? And
then we'll just sit back, and watch the prices tumble."
