III and VC have instapass mega-threads - but SA is SA. :D

SA only has three known instapasses:

• Running Dog and Puncture Wounds, both using Bloodbowl
• Dam And Blast using Stowaway + Vigilante + Property Buying -> Dam And Blast -> mission x to cancel it.

Puncture Wounds This is the only instapass worth doing, imo.

Steps: 0) Get an om0 call like in any% (not by failing the mission, though^^, just pass it instead of failing).

• Note that you can use the Taxi sub-mission to time your call

1. Hold that call.
2. Start Bloodbowl.
3. Release the call.
4. Die.
5. Hold the call so that you do not have to cancel it later (?)
6. Start Puncture Wounds.
7. Blow up the car to fail the remaining Puncture instance. Time it to reset the camera at a convenient time.

• I have done the IP 10-20 times without mashing to skip the intro cs (like for the Monster dupe, for example) but never softlocked - unless I waited until "mission passed" which happens ages later.
• It seems that the time it takes for the car to blow up after exploding it varies? Needs looking into - is just a micro-optimization, anyway. A safe timing (to reset the camera at a convenient point) should be to trigger the satchel 5 seconds after the fade after the cutscene.

Routing: I'd just do this right after beating Bloodbowl in non-linear. Powdinet Discord paste: [quote]reminder that puncture wounds instapass goes well along with the semi-consistent sentinel spawn at the end of Customs Fast Track (mission loads model so it spawns often) so anyone who wants to save some time should combine these two I'm still sad you can't just park a mission sentinel on the boat and have it count 😦

[after asked to clarify] currently in the route you have a choice of either doing all of wang cars in one go, or do 3 of them, deliver sentinel and go back for the 4th later in terms of routing, PW instapass makes the sentinel export there a lot faster than other alternatives [/quote]

Dam And Blast Since Vigilante duping can occasionally crash, Dam And Blast is not worth doing even if it ends up saving time. Details: This post and the following.

Running Dog I don't feel like writing about it since it is slow, anyway. ^^

There is some hope of a Firefighter instapass but it is unlikely that I get it to work and it takes a lot of research but I am lazy at this time. Details

@Puncture wounds instapass: [quote] 6) Start Puncture Wounds. 7) Blow up the car to fail the remaining Puncture instance. Time it to reset the camera at a convenient time.

You can also mash and skip the cutscene quickly - though it appears to be about 5s slower as you don't end up skipping the asset acquired view, you don't have to actually blow up the car. Probably easier.

LV Fight move instapass. Totally worth it.

Just adding some instapasses that have been found recently and some old ones in order to fill this thread with information that in discord could be lost due to conversations.

Running Dog Instapass (mentioned in this thread) with Bloodbowl/Bloodring. Cheated because reasons (it crashes in the cutscene due to the leftover instance combined with Wrong Side of the Tracks).

Home Invasion Instapass with Pimping (cancel). Use this setup in order to instapass the mission and kill the leftover instance.

Lowrider Challenge (Bet and Dance) Instapass with Trucking

Cut Throat Business Instapass with Back to School - Pop and Control (Lesson). This is the most faster setup that I could came up with (Requieres Goto0 in order to use the save marker teleportation system)

Key to her Heart Instapass with Back to School - P.I.T. Maneuver (Lesson)

Beat Down on B Dup Instapass with Back to School - P.I.T. Maneuver (Lesson)

Kickstart Instapass with Learning to Fly - Circle Airstrip (Menu)

Setup:

• Start Flying School OM0.

• Search for 3rd lesson (Circle Airstrip) and hold N while OM0 (wait for the call to finish).

-Die during the Menu and wait for respawn.

• Go to Blackfield Stadium.

• Start 3rd lesson and Kickstart during that fade at the same time.

Bloodbowl/Bloodring Instapass with Nines and AK's

Learning to Fly Instapass with Doberman (can't be done by normal means. Requires Goto0)

SF Courier Instapass with Outrider

Firefighter Instapass with Customs Fast Track. Requires stack fixing that has not been found yet (we are not so sure that there is one existing).

Zeroing In Instapass with A Home in the Hills

LS Gym Moves Instapass with Beat Down on B Dup

Tagging Up Turf Instapass with Beat Down on B Dup (can't be done by normal means. Requires Goto0)

LS/SF Courier Instapass with Cleaning the Hood

Paramedic Instapass with Home Invasion (stack fixing with BMX Challenge and Life's a Beach)

Setup:

1. start bmx challenge and dupe Life's a Beach.
2. die or get busted to kill one Life's a Beach instance (busted is faster)
3. start Home Invasion and drive to the marker
4. Get a car and arm a bomb
5. [this is the tricky part] I've figured out you can trigger the house marker on a vehicle. But the bomb doesn't detonate during the fade. So get blown up right before triggering the marker with little momentum so that you trigger it after the explosion. Then pausebuffer for unknown ammount of time so that by the time the cutscene starts playing you are at the hospital
6. Start Paramedic during the "Hold down the key to sneak." cutscene text.

Firefighter Instapass with Key to her Heart (stack fixing with Boat School (Menu) and High Noon)

Setup:

Start Boat School during High Noon and die OM1 to kill the bad instance (hold Y so you don't fail all instances). Use snapshots to orentiate yourself and jog to Key to Her Heart marker while holding Y. Well then die OM1 to kill the bad Key to Her Heart instance and instapass Firefighter as showcased in the video.

Firefighter Instapass with Key to her Heart (stack fixing with Duality minigame)

Same setup as the previous one but stack fixing with Duality.

Learning to Fly Instapass with Supply Lines... (stack fixing with Driving School (Menu))

Setup:

Start Learning to Fly during Launch the Red Baron!. using driving school D-PAD LEFT to fix the stack and partial skip into the line. Game crashes after because two instances of "Supply Lines..." are running one of which still has still the wrong stack. Not found a way to kill the "bad" instance, neither keep the line running.

Bike School instapass with Boat School (Menu)

Setup: Start Bike School during Boat School menu without pressing Y or N. This instapass only works if you've completed the first two courses of bike school previously (or complete them after you do it) or by completing the second last test later.

Freight Train Instapass with Freefall (using Driving School (Menu) to partial skip freefall to the correct cutscene)

Paramedic Instapass with Home Invasion (stack fixing with Duality minigame)

Setup: Same setup as the previous one (stack fix with BMX and Life's a beach). You also could do the following nades setup with capping 3 fps ->

Boat School - Basic Seamanship (Lesson) Instapass with Ryder (can't be done by normal means. Requires Goto0)

Cop Wheels Instapass with Tagging Up Turf (can't be done by normal means. Requires Goto0. You can freeze the cutscene with buy property mission which turns him into a ped and doesn't let to start the mission due to going away from Sweet fails the setup. Killing Sweet in the cutscene doesn't work either)

N.O.E Instapass with N.O.E X4. By quadruplicating N.O.E you instapass the mission 4 times skipping what are left from Toreno's strand (used as a mdv back up strat)

LV Gym Moves Instapass with Cut Throat Business

SF Gym Moves Instapass with Cut Throat Business (crashes at the end)

Holey donuts, that's quite a list Anakeen! Very nice!

Doberman Instapass with Tagging Up Turf (can't be done by normal means. Requieres Goto0 or mod. No way known to "freeze" a fade-in)

Reuniting the Families Instapass with LV Gym (can't be done by normal means. Requieres a mod and fps cap)

Setup: Go to LV Gym, get the moves, go to talk with the guy then start RTF before triggering the line "You think you can last a round with me". Smash the RTF first cutscene as soon as possible (game could crash if you watch a lot the cutscene).

Snail Trail Instapass with Body Harvest (can't be done by normal means. Requieres a mod, no way known to "freeze" a fade-out. Fps cap is not necessary, you can do it without it but would be more difficult). Strangely this instapass triggers when you are in om0 state (by killing the current Snail Trail instance or by regain om0 again for some reason).

Ice Cold Killa Instapass with SF Gym

Setup: Get OM0 call, release call when the gym master is talking and press a movement key on foot to get SF OM0. Then start Ice Cold Killa and press N to say no as close to mission start as possible.

Amphibious Assault Instapass with LS Gym (can't be done by normal means. Requieres a mod and fps cap).

Setup: Go to LS Gym, get the moves, go to talk with the guy then start AA before triggering the line "You think you can last a round with me" (you get softlocked in the interior world)

Setup: Start bike school and leave outside the mission. Then start Learning to Fly - Land Helicopter (Lesson) and during "Push and press to maintain your forward speed" line start Bike School.

LS/LV Courier Instapass with Wrong Side of the Tracks

Setup: Start Wsott in the interior world, go to the train part, go away from the train, start courier during the fade before the failling cutscene (before "all you have to do, is to follow the dam train CJ" cutscene)

T-Bone Mendez Instapass with Blood Bowl (leaves one instance. Could be in the interior world or not depending how you do it. Can't be done by normal means. Requieres a mod, no way known to "freeze" the fade. In theory could also be done by normal means but timer is too tight to do. Also could be mass duped with trucking to skip almos everything of SF if a proper setup is found)

Up, Up and Away! Instapass with Black Project (leaves one instance. Can't be done by normal means. Requieres a mod, no way known to start a mission during the fade when going away from Area 69)

Customs Fast Track Instapass with Breaking the Bank at Caligula's (kills both instances. Can't be done by normal means. Requieres a mod, no way to known to freeze that cutscene)
