Right, went ingame, tried to fly a Skimmer and could not take off from the water, thought nothing of it, casually mentioned it to someone else, they could take off straight away.

I could takeoff using a skimmer before, tried various ways now, only thing I can suggest that perhaps either my keyboard AND joystick are dodgy, or the installation is wrong?

Only 'Mod' I have is a new gta_sa.exe file so I do not need to keep using the disc.

Make sure you haven't edited the buttons. You may have edited up and down arrows. Try flying either a Dodo , Shamal or Nevada. If they work , try getting the original gta_sa.exe and using CD.

Theres no way I have swapped the arrows, since I do not use them.

I use an 'accelerate' button on my Joystick and fly using that, I know it works as I spent my whole life stunting with my shamal

Hmm I once had trouble too, I think it gets bugged somehow, but I fixed it with a re-install

Please note, I seem to have this problem when swimming as well, my character swims really slowly compared to everyone elses.

I've tried various settings, used joystick on both 'Joypad' and Mouse and keys' and vice versa, nothing works.

I DO have a legal copy of SA, but the disc is that badly scratched that it will not install, I copied the physical files for the game from my brothers computer.

Yeah, its my copy which is scratched -.-
The thing is, he's the one who scratched it!  :(


Salt and hate won't take us anywhere.
And we do not try to be real life, as why would you ever play real life if you have one ? We play the GTA universe, and our players should try to live in the GTA world, not the real one.

Game bug, re-install will fix it.

I have that same problem too, slow swimming aswell as when I try use a Skimmer, it takes so long to accelerate and gain speed but never enough to actually take off.
