I heard the Andromeda was a huge plane that you could only get by cheats





If the picture doesn't work it's at this link in the plane section when you scroll down.

click on this

I don't think this is true because why would rockstar waste time making another airplane and not let anyone use it, but if it is I haven't seen a cheat around for it.
 
It's possible. It's pretty common that a bunch of random undeveloped stuff gets left on the production disk*. I don't think I've heard about this before though.

It may actually be that plane Torino makes you hijack and blow up. I'm pretty sure that isn't an AT400.

*gnomefromnome has found a SWAT truck and a drivable flowerpot in GTA:SA. I think all GT games so far have been found to contain loads of 'hidden' cars in varying states of development. Also, Half-Life had enough junk on the disc for somebody to make a whole expansion out of it.
 
I also read somewhere about the Andromeda, & agree with Emohawk about it supposedly being the same plane as in the Toreno mission. However, I once used a Gameshark & tried the "spawn an Andromeda" code, but ended up with a plane which looked (to me) like the huge plane found in the L.V. airport hangar. :confused: I tried to get CJ in the plane, but it was too high to get into. :boggled: So I figure even if ya did aquire an Andromeda somehow, you probably couldn`t get into it either. :ouch: Oh well.
 
I've flown one before but only on the PS2.
You need to have a GS or CB or some other cheat device though,
and its lower then the AT 400 so you can just get right in.

I was curious of what it looked like, you don't have a picture you can post of it, or know where one is do you?
 
The Andromeda is that big cargo plane you have to drive into in one of the missions as the airstrip. Its possible to spawn it using cheats, but you can't drive anything into it unfortunately.
 
From System Error's invaluable bulletproof car FAQ in GameFAQs' GTA:SA section:

---------
Andromada
---------
Location: Desert/Las Venturas
Mission: Stowaway/A Home in the Hills
Character: Toreno/Madd Dogg

A big plane, nothing more to say about it except that it's unique. It's not as
big as the AT-400, but it is still large. You can fetch it with a cheating
device if you'd like.

Why you can't get it
--------------------
Not enough room or time to get in. If you try to use Blow Up All Cars, it will
stay grounded, but it won't fit in the hangar. In theory, you could push it
into a position where it would fit, but the hangar won't let destroyed cars
stay in for a certain period of time. Then again, this is wrong again. If you
use "Blow Up All Cars" after the scene where Toreno talks to Carl, during the
scene where it is explaining what to do, the Andromada will never take off, yet
it won't explode either. You can walk right up to it and hop in. The bad news
is that it will not move, nor will you be able to exit. The only thing you'll
be able to do is screw around with the ramp by using the right analog stick.

A little more information for anyone who's interested.
 
Uh, you can't. Not without a Gameshark, anyway.
In the mission 'stowaway' (at the Verdant Medows airstrip, it's the one after N.O.E.);
"use "Blow Up All Cars" after the scene where Toreno talks to Carl, during the
scene where it is explaining what to do, the Andromada will never take off, yet
it won't explode either. You can walk right up to it and hop in. The bad news
is that it will not move, nor will you be able to exit. The only thing you'll
be able to do is screw around with the ramp by using the right analog stick."
GameFAQs has the blow up all cars cheat if you don't.
 
I used my GameShark for these pics by using the Spawn Andromada instead of Romero Code

That's why you're "That gameshark-having guy" :D , thanks for the pictures!

Since the ramp is apperently workable, can you actually put things in it? Or does the interior only exist in the missions?

There's an invisible wall on the ramp, so it's impossible to load anything even onto the ramp. That's why in the mission, it switches to a cutscene when CJ drives onto the ramp.
 
I am so desperate to have the andromeda . i saw a code for the san andreas action replay disc, but *suprise suprise* DID NOT WORK
