Video Discription |
In this Video, I show how to obtain the Unique Skylift from "Sidetracked (Obvious)." After I obtain it, I reload the Save and show that it's still there.
Finally, right? There is a Unique Skylift in TBoGT with a theoretical Method without Cheats, but I've never seen a Video of it and I've never obtained it without Cheats myself, but you can obtain it with CHEATS (there is a Video for it on YouTube). If you're bummed about not being able to have a legit one in TBoGT, well, now is your chance to get one in GTA V!
The reason why this is obtainable on PS3 and Xbox360 ONLY is because Rockstar removed the ability to store the Skylift at Helipads in later Patches. Helipads just won't recognize them. The only way to get the Unique Skylift is to obtain it on PS3 or Xbox360 WITHOUT PATCHES installed! Though, interestingly enough, once you SAVE it on a Helipad on Version 1.00, you can THEN update to the latest Patch and the Skylift will REMAIN on the Helipad and never vanish!
You MUST start the Mission as TREVOR and NOT Michael. If you start as M and not T, then T will be flying the Skylift at the end of the Mission and his Helipad is problematic and glitchy for this Skylift. If you store it as T, the Skylift will be on its Side! You can still ram it upright and use it, but it's just pointless. Don't store it as T. Store it as M. Also, don't try and "trade" this Skylift with another Character, either, because it usually will vanish when you switch Characters.
Interestingly enough, the Skylift can be a DIFFERENT Color (but none are EC) of which I show how to get during the Mission. There is only five total Colors in which spawn on this Skylift and personally, all of them look similar and bad except two of them (at least to me) and one of the two, I get in this Video that I like (Green). To get it in other Traffic Default Colors, after the Game switches to Michael, just blow up the Skylift (without killing Michael) and keep failing the Mission and hitting Retry. The Skylift should eventually get different Colors! Once you get the desired Color, complete the Mission, and store it as M.
The Skylift's Magnet is only accessible DURING the Mission. When you fly it in Free Roam, you can NOT use the Magnet! Also, if you store it and drive away and come back at Michael's Helipad, the Magnet will be removed! This is because the Magnet is an Extra, and Helipads like to remove Special Extras from Vehicles.
There is a way to get the Skylift on all New Gen Versions though, but you won't be able to use it! On New Gen, there's a newly found Glitch that allows you to store Trucks in Interior Garages, not only Trucks, but also Planes, Boats, Helicopters, etc. You can store the Skylift in an Interior using the mentioned New Gen Glitch, but the Skylift will simply blow up into pieces and render your whole Garage USELESS if you do that. Though, this is the only way to keep the Skylift with a Magnet. Don't store it in an Interior Garage on Old Gen, since entering the Garage would result in a Game Crash! It doesn't result in a Crash on New Gen, but I don't suggested doing this anywhere. To know how to do this, consult this Video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vb_O6xpnrhg
