It should still be available from the GTA London website at
www.rockstargames.com

Look for something called 1961 or Mission Pack #1.


Cheers,
Rob

I think you had to load the original gta disc then put the london disc
in. did you get no instructions? I would expect at least a small
readme file on the discs.

mission pack 2 was designed with the original discs in mind.... I am hoping
someone knows of a patch or a way to get the win95 protocol mission pack to
work on a xp computer.... it could be the operating system or it could be
the collector's edition... thanks though.

cheers!

Sorry, my mistake. I couldn't see all of the subject line in my news
client.

IIRC, GTAL:1961 was intended for use with the original GTA disk (Ie:
not the re-released edition).

I would have though that the game would just have to read certain files
off the disk you have got though, and none of those should be changed
(Except maybe screen resolutions).


Cheers,
Rob

it's possible to use the latest gta engine (2002) to run GTA London, I've packed one for myself for personal use, I can upload it for you if you want. It comes in 2 edition, GTA London 1969 and GTA London 1961 (StandAlone version).

Basically what I've did is mod the english.fxt from one of the london parts to fit the mission numbers from the original GTA game in the mission.ini from one of the GTA London's (missuk.ini for 1969, missuke.ini for 1961, just rename one to mission.ini, inside the ini, mod that the cmp doesn't load from the subdir \uk).

1961 is a bit more complicated to get standalone, learn some gta modding and it should be a quick fix ;-)
