What is Big Cojones?
Big Cojones is a modpack for the original release of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City that aims to preserve the cut content from the original PS2 release, as well as revitalize the game graphically and functionally.

How do we aim to revitalize the game? It's quite simple, piecemeal the best pieces of each release of Vice City together like Frankenstein. We end up with things like the original PS2 weapon models and names, the XBOX car models, the Anniversary Edition GUI, revamped vegetation, and so much more!
Installation
Click here to download the v1.00 Vice City executable.

Click here[www.nexusmods.com] to download the modpack.

To install Big Cojones all you need to do is install a clean/unmodified copy of Vice City, follow the provided links, download the v1.00 executable, download the modpack folder, and copy everything from the modpack's FILES folder to your Vice City root installation folder. Overwrite EVERYTHING. Copy over the v1.00 executable - overwriting the executable that's already present.

That's it, you're done! Starting a new game is HIGHLY recommended to avert any bugs. I hope you enjoy your stay in Vice City!

NOTE: You CAN load into a v1.00 retail save, if you don't already have one - you can convert your Steam save to the retail version with this tool[www.gtagarage.com]. I have tested this modpack with both a new game and a 100% save file with no issue. I cannot, with certainty, guarantee using a save in the middle of the story will not produce bugs of it's own kind. You have been warned!
