How can I unlock the whole city on the PC version?

I would like to play the entire city without playing through the game, I only play for sentimental reasons (for the good old days). I would like to unlock the whole city, and there is no "cheat code" for this.

I won't play multiplayer or do any other thing with this. I only play single player once in a while.

So is there a cheat engine that lets me use the entire map? or a game I could download and load?

I'm using steam to run GTA!

There is no cheat that unlocks the entire map. You could however:

• Explore the map with a plane, (enabling the "Lock Wanted Level" cheat to make the Cops not chase you).
• Use a Savegame from someone who has unlocked every area. This is probably the easiest method. It shouldn't be that hard to find a save on the Internet.
• Create a Savegame like you want it to be with a Savegame Editor. I haven't tested it myself, but you should be able to create one relatively easily using that.

Did you consider downloading a save-game that has all the missions complete? You will also find plenty of save-games with each mission complete here:

Since there is no character customization in this game, I would personally not mind downloading and playing, if it's just for nostalgia :)

I managed to edit a saved map with the GTA San Andreas Save Game Editor and change my "first safehouse" to different areas, and then go ahead buy a new one and then just change my first safehouse again and do so. This made me be able to own every house in the game, this was the result I was after. I just hoped for a faster and easier result. But thanks everyone! :)

I haven't got the final part of the map working. When I enter the monstertruck at one of my "girlfriends" workshop the game just crashes. So I guess there is a problem with my method on unlocking the whole map.

so the outline is It sort of works.

I know this post is pretty old by now but another option, (I'm not 100% sure if it removes the barricades or the wanted level) is to start a new game, then while you're in the cutscene where you're in the back of the police car enter the spawn jetpack cheat. Then when they kick you out of the car instead of spawning normally you'll get the "wasted" message and spawn at the Los Santos hospital. From there you're free to explore and or play the game as normal with the exception that every door is unlocked (including some mission specific ones).
