'''James "Jim" Fitzgerald''' ([[1963]] - [[2008]]) was a character in the GTA IV era, appearing in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]] and [[The Lost and Damned]].
There are seven missions which consist primarily of using [[Hunter Quarry|quarry]] machines to accomplish different tasks.
====Background====


Jim Fitzgerald was born and raised in [[Acter]], [[Alderney]], as were most other members of [[The Lost]]. According to [[Clay Simons]], Jim was once a US Marine as early as 1981 (when he would have been 18) but was kicked out, a claim that Jim did not comment on. Jim also married a woman named Jackie at an unspecified time.
==Missions==
====The Lost MC====


Jim's criminal record dates back to 1987, when he was arrested for assault at age 24. He was likely a member of [[The Lost ]]by this time. As he worked his way up from a prospect to a senior member of the gang, two theft charges followed in the next six years. He later met [[Billy Grey]] and [[Johnny Klebitz]], who were childhood friends of each other and both began very aggressive criminal lifestyles at only 16. Jim became very close friends with Johnny, who was 12 years younger and likely saw him as a role model. He viewed Billy, however, as very foolish and never became as well connected to him. Despite their young ages, Billy and Johnny worked their way up to become president and vice president, respectively, of the chapter. Jim was perfectly content and not jealous, and became their treasurer as well as an unofficial advisor to Johnny. Both he and Johnny were opposed to the war with the [[The Angels of Death|Angels of Death]] biker gang, which dated back to 1982 and was reignited under Billy's leadership, but complied out of loyalty. He was arrested in 1999 and 2005 for cooking meth and larceny, respectively, and his wife Jackie had a baby around the same time.
===Mission 1===


In 2008, Billy was arrested for heroin and was sent to rehab, during which Johnny became the gang's acting president. Billy had been excessively violent towards the AOD, including one incident in which he put [[Joe Jon|Joe Jon's]] nephew in a coma, which directed Johnny to give Billy's [[Revenant]] motorcycle to the AOD as a peace offering. That same year, Billy returned from rehab and became president again, and Jim/Johnny did not like the way Billy was taking the gang. As tensions and arguments over leadership between Billy and Johnny escalated, Billy was eventually [[This Shit's Cursed|arrested in a failed heroin deal]]. Billy blamed Johnny for snitching on him to the police, although it is [[Chinese Takeout|later revealed]] that Billy conspired with the heroin buyers to kill Johnny. [[Brian Jeremy]], Billy's most loyal and sycophantic follower, [[End of Chapter|wages a civil war]] against Jim and Johnny's faction with a noticeably larger faction of other Billy loyalists. Jim had befriended [[Pegorino Family]] [[Ray Boccino]], who assisted Johnny in [[Bad Standing|killing Brian]].
'''''Use the bulldozer to clear the paths before the next delivery arrives.'''''


In The Lost and Damned, Jim is one of Johnny's good friends you can hang out with and Johnny can make a call to Jim to arrange for a loaded weapon to be left in a corner in the second floor of [[Lost MC Clubhouse]]
This mission is timed and requires you to push 7 rocks with the [[Dozer|bulldozer]] into red marked areas in order to clear the path. This is relatively easy, although you'll use up most of your time driving around the quarry. Jump in the Dozer and drive forward. Drive into the rock and push it over the side, then head down to the right and push that rock over the side. Keep going around to the right and you'll notice the next rock is below you. Jump off the side and use the directions on the analog stick to keep the Dozer on it's wheels. Push the next rock off and head towards the next one which is to the left. You may have to drop down and go up the small ramp from the bottom level and to the left. Once you've got that, head back along the path and knock the next one off the road. Head up the path to the left and knock the next lower one down, then head along the path, up and to the left and knock the final rock off the end.


====Death====
'''''Reward:''''' [[Money|$]]500
Sometime after the civil war, Boccino recruited Johnny to protect a [[Collector's Item|diamond deal]] between his party and the [[Jewish Mob]]. After surviving [[Not So Fast|an ambush]] at the deal, Johnny returned with Boccino's stolen money and entrusted it to Jim. Boccino captures and tortures Jim back at his restaurant, before Johnny rescues him. Jim parted ways with Johnny to meet with an unnamed Lost biker in an alleyway, when [[Niko Bellic]] kills the two after [[No Way on the Subway|a bike chase through the subway]]. Ironically, Niko assisted Johnny during the diamond deal, a prior heroin deal, and anonymously killed their fellow Lost biker [[Jason Michaels]].


After his killing his picture is hung on the Lost clubhouse's [[The Lost MC Memorial Wall|memorial wall]]. Johnny later said of Jim that he was the greatest thing that has happened to the gang and "the man we all wanted to be". Johnny states that he will send money to Jim's wife and kid, he owes them that much.

==LCPD Database record==
Again, this mission is timed, and again you need to push items around using the bulldozer. Get in the Dozer and you'll be told of a bomb behind the hut where you start the mission, so drive around to it and use the ramp at the front to push the barrel into the red circle. This can be pretty frustrating as the barrel doesn't exactly stick to the front of the vehicle, but you have more than enough time to do it. Once it's in you'll be told that there's a bomb at the crane so head down the hill (jump if you wish) and get behind the barrel and push it up the two slopes into the red circle. Rather easy that one. After that, drop down to the bottom of the Quarry where you'll need to push another barrel into a close red circle. It's not too difficult providing you approach it from directly behind. The next bomb is close again, just in between the crushers behind you. Push that into the red circle within the generous allotted time. Once it's pushed into the circle, get out of the truck and run like hell as it blows up.

Another timed mission, although this one isn't as repetitive as before. Jump in the huge [[Dumper]] and make your way around the outside of the Quarry while chasing after the red blip on the radar. If you have a sub machine gun you can just drive by the truck until it goes boom. If not, do it the more fun way and try to blow it up by smashing into it, or even knock it into the water as it passes by through Tierra Robada. Once it's gone it's mission complete.

'''Notes''':
*'''''Note:''''' The driver of the enemy Dumper is one of the few NPCs in the game with the ability to swim. If you knock it into the water during the mission, the driver will exit the vehicle and tread water non-stop. If you dive into the water and join him, he will speak NPC lines to you.

'''''The bombers have been caught. Their bodies are loaded on a dumper at the quarry's other entrance. Dump them before the cops come snooping.'''''
 
You'll never guess that this is another timed mission too. Anyway, grab the Sanchez and make your way towards the blue blip on the radar at the other side of the quarry. Go around it, not through it. When you get there, get in the Dumper and follow the same route back to the Quarry Entrance. Be careful not to crash the Dumper though, as the bodies in the back aren't very stable and if they fall out it's a mission failure. Once you get back to the quarry entrance, follow the path down to the left and reverse towards the fire when you reach it. Pull back on the right analog stick and the dumper will tip out the bodies onto the fire.
 
Reward: $3,000
 
===Mission 5===
 
'''''The dumper is loaded with explosives and needs to be driven gently. Deliver the explosives to the desert airstrip.'''''
 
This mission is once again timed, but you also need to ensure you drive carefully as one hard impact or about three soft ones will cause the barrels to explode. Choose your own route to the desert airstrip, the best way is to go to the right, follow the road along and to the left and then North and left again and work your way down to the drop off point. In some game versions a glitch occurs on this mission and the game will award you a huge insane stunt bonus when you drop the barrels in the red circle - free money.
 
Reward: $5,000
 
===Mission 6===
 
'''''A dumper has spilled it's load of explosives along the train tracks. Use the bulldozer to clear them before the next train passes.'''''
 
It's timed again. Get in the bulldozer and make your way towards the train tracks which you'll find by going straight forward and then left and down onto the tracks. From there just drive along the tracks and push all of the barrels with green arrows off the side until the arrow disappears. Keep going along and remove them all before the time runs out. Relatively simple, compared to the mission difficulty progress that happens in the other missions.
 
Reward: $7,500
 
===Mission 7===
 
'''''A cop has been killed. Use the bulldozer in the quarry to get rid of the body before more cops come snooping.'''''
 
Grab the Sanchez and use it to jump all of the way to the bottom of the quarry. Once there, get in the Dozer and you'll be told to push the body and bike towards the crane pick up area. Head to the right and get behind the body, then push it down the hill towards the crane. Leave it in the red circle then head across the other side of the area and push the bike towards the same place. Once it's there, grab your Sanchez if you parked it close and drive up the hill to the crane. Once there, stand in the red circle and push triangle to get in the crane. Spin it around to the left and hold X and manoeuvre the crane to pick up both the body and bike, then hold square to lift up the crane and drop them one by one into the back of the dumper. Once they're in you'll be told to get into the Dumper and drive to the Quarry Entrance. Carefully make your way up the hill and drive through the gates. From here you'll be told to dump the body and bike into the water. Head to the red circle and reverse up to the water. Pull back on the analog stick to dump the objects into the water.
 
Reward: $10,000
 
All Quarry Missions have been completed. Hunter Quarry has now been Acquired as an [[Asset]]. The dumper truck and bulldozer will now always be available at the quarry.

Revision as of 17:54, 28 October 2019

The Quarry Missions are a series of Asset Missions in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.

There are seven missions which consist primarily of using quarry machines to accomplish different tasks.

Missions

Mission 1

Use the bulldozer to clear the paths before the next delivery arrives.

This mission is timed and requires you to push 7 rocks with the bulldozer into red marked areas in order to clear the path. This is relatively easy, although you'll use up most of your time driving around the quarry. Jump in the Dozer and drive forward. Drive into the rock and push it over the side, then head down to the right and push that rock over the side. Keep going around to the right and you'll notice the next rock is below you. Jump off the side and use the directions on the analog stick to keep the Dozer on it's wheels. Push the next rock off and head towards the next one which is to the left. You may have to drop down and go up the small ramp from the bottom level and to the left. Once you've got that, head back along the path and knock the next one off the road. Head up the path to the left and knock the next lower one down, then head along the path, up and to the left and knock the final rock off the end.

Reward: $500

Mission 2

Bombs have been planted by a rival organization. Use the bulldozer to push the bombs to safe area markers.

Again, this mission is timed, and again you need to push items around using the bulldozer. Get in the Dozer and you'll be told of a bomb behind the hut where you start the mission, so drive around to it and use the ramp at the front to push the barrel into the red circle. This can be pretty frustrating as the barrel doesn't exactly stick to the front of the vehicle, but you have more than enough time to do it. Once it's in you'll be told that there's a bomb at the crane so head down the hill (jump if you wish) and get behind the barrel and push it up the two slopes into the red circle. Rather easy that one. After that, drop down to the bottom of the Quarry where you'll need to push another barrel into a close red circle. It's not too difficult providing you approach it from directly behind. The next bomb is close again, just in between the crushers behind you. Push that into the red circle within the generous allotted time. Once it's pushed into the circle, get out of the truck and run like hell as it blows up.

Reward: $1,000

Mission 3

The bombers are escaping in a dumper. Use this dumper to destroy it before they reach their destination.

Another timed mission, although this one isn't as repetitive as before. Jump in the huge Dumper and make your way around the outside of the Quarry while chasing after the red blip on the radar. If you have a sub machine gun you can just drive by the truck until it goes boom. If not, do it the more fun way and try to blow it up by smashing into it, or even knock it into the water as it passes by through Tierra Robada. Once it's gone it's mission complete.

Reward: $2,000

  • Note: The driver of the enemy Dumper is one of the few NPCs in the game with the ability to swim. If you knock it into the water during the mission, the driver will exit the vehicle and tread water non-stop. If you dive into the water and join him, he will speak NPC lines to you.

Mission 4

The bombers have been caught. Their bodies are loaded on a dumper at the quarry's other entrance. Dump them before the cops come snooping.

You'll never guess that this is another timed mission too. Anyway, grab the Sanchez and make your way towards the blue blip on the radar at the other side of the quarry. Go around it, not through it. When you get there, get in the Dumper and follow the same route back to the Quarry Entrance. Be careful not to crash the Dumper though, as the bodies in the back aren't very stable and if they fall out it's a mission failure. Once you get back to the quarry entrance, follow the path down to the left and reverse towards the fire when you reach it. Pull back on the right analog stick and the dumper will tip out the bodies onto the fire.

Reward: $3,000

Mission 5

The dumper is loaded with explosives and needs to be driven gently. Deliver the explosives to the desert airstrip.

This mission is once again timed, but you also need to ensure you drive carefully as one hard impact or about three soft ones will cause the barrels to explode. Choose your own route to the desert airstrip, the best way is to go to the right, follow the road along and to the left and then North and left again and work your way down to the drop off point. In some game versions a glitch occurs on this mission and the game will award you a huge insane stunt bonus when you drop the barrels in the red circle - free money.

Reward: $5,000

Mission 6

A dumper has spilled it's load of explosives along the train tracks. Use the bulldozer to clear them before the next train passes.

It's timed again. Get in the bulldozer and make your way towards the train tracks which you'll find by going straight forward and then left and down onto the tracks. From there just drive along the tracks and push all of the barrels with green arrows off the side until the arrow disappears. Keep going along and remove them all before the time runs out. Relatively simple, compared to the mission difficulty progress that happens in the other missions.

Reward: $7,500

Mission 7

A cop has been killed. Use the bulldozer in the quarry to get rid of the body before more cops come snooping.

Grab the Sanchez and use it to jump all of the way to the bottom of the quarry. Once there, get in the Dozer and you'll be told to push the body and bike towards the crane pick up area. Head to the right and get behind the body, then push it down the hill towards the crane. Leave it in the red circle then head across the other side of the area and push the bike towards the same place. Once it's there, grab your Sanchez if you parked it close and drive up the hill to the crane. Once there, stand in the red circle and push triangle to get in the crane. Spin it around to the left and hold X and manoeuvre the crane to pick up both the body and bike, then hold square to lift up the crane and drop them one by one into the back of the dumper. Once they're in you'll be told to get into the Dumper and drive to the Quarry Entrance. Carefully make your way up the hill and drive through the gates. From here you'll be told to dump the body and bike into the water. Head to the red circle and reverse up to the water. Pull back on the analog stick to dump the objects into the water.

Reward: $10,000

All Quarry Missions have been completed. Hunter Quarry has now been Acquired as an Asset. The dumper truck and bulldozer will now always be available at the quarry.

Trivia

  • During Mission 6 the train that goes over the tracks travels at an extreme speed, Faster than the train can actually ever go in-game.
