Q&A for How to Start a Gang in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

You can use mods to allocate some of your territory to enemies' gangs. If you leave at least one turf to another gang, it'll start attacking you.

You could star one with the San Fierro Rifas in San Fierro. This can be done by aligning with the Triads.

Look into your control settings: you'll see there special left, right, up and down. Use the assigned buttons to finish the dancing car mission.

After completing the mission “Home Coming” in the storyline, gang wars will be back.

When you recruit them they will follow you. You can see how to recruit them in the steps above.

Attack another gang on foot and kill a couple of groups. This will initiate a gang war very quickly.

Using 'lock on' aiming mode, briefly tap the attack (shoot) button with a gun (a weapon with a slow shooting rate like a pistol is recommended, it has to be brief, just a tap hence the gun goes off and shoots the gang member) while aiming at your gang members. You'll see a little window flashing before your eyes, it will have a button with a handshaking figure, you have to press that button. You need to be very fast to press that. so, you have to predict the position of the button and touch the area at the same time when you press the 'shoot' button.

You can't follow them, they can only follow you. If you want to follow them, then just go after them but nothing interesting will happen.

In GTA: San Andreas, you can buy clothes from stores like Binco, SubUrban, and Victim after completing "Nines and AKs," with options improving as you progress. Houses can be purchased using money earned from missions, side activities, or gambling. To get girlfriends, meet them during the story or at specific locations (e.g., Denise in Los Santos) and date them to build relationships. Personal cars can be stolen and saved in your safe house garages, and you can customize them at tuning shops like TransFender or Wheel Arch Angels.

You can't officially skip missions in GTA San Andreas, but there are workarounds. You can download a save file that starts after the mission and replace your current save, or use mods or trainers designed to skip missions (though these may cause issues). Alternatively, share your saved file with a friend or online community to have someone complete the mission for you. Be cautious with downloads to avoid corrupting your game.

To change the Recruit button in GTA: San Andreas, open the pause menu, go to "Options," then "Controller Setup," and select "Redefine Controls." Under "Foot Controls," find the "Gang Recruitment" or "Talk Positive" action and assign it to a new key or button. On consoles, the recruit function is typically tied to a specific button (e.g., D-pad Up), but button remapping isn’t available on older systems. If using mods, check their settings, as they may alter controls.

The absence of Grove Street Families (GSF) gang members in your **GTA: San Andreas** game could be due to a glitch, a corrupted save file, or conflicts with mods or cheats. To fix it, try loading an earlier save, restarting the game, or avoiding cheats that affect gangs. If the issue persists, reinstalling the game or verifying any mods you're using might help. If the problem is tied to the game chip itself, you might need to replace it or use a backup save.
