Back to the Future: Hill Valley is a modification initially made for Grand Theft Auto: Vice City that allows players to time travel in Vice City via all variants of the DeLorean time machine and the Jules Verne Time Train, as well as travel in cars from 1955, 1985, and 2015. Also there also is a CLEO-AddOn version for Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas available that currently contains the BTTF2 DeLorean with its effects and features plus some goodies to be played alongside the original storyline of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.

The following information mostly relate to the GTA: Vice City version of the mod.

Overview

Wheelsparks

A screenshot of the DeLorean time machine reaching temporal displacement plus the altered HUD (outdated version).

The player starts at the mansion with a regular DeLorean DMC-12 parked in the driveway. There is no specific goal at the moment, other than free roam. The player can drive to Sunshine Autos and construct one of three Part I DeLorean time machines (with hook, without hook, and regular) . Then the player drives to the junkyard to obtain the plutonium from the Libyans. The Libyans (albeit represented by angry Haitian gang members here) chase the DeLorean in a Volkswagen bus once the player leaves the junkyard, with one member shooting at the DeLorean. The player can either choose to escape via time travel, drive until it crashes and explodes, or use any weapons to destroy it.

Once the plutonium in inserted into the fuel chamber (with the character standing behind the vehicle) and time circuits are engaged (performed by a combination of keys, or changeable via the options menu), the vehicle is capable of reaching temporal displacement at 88 mph, displayed on the bottom right of the screen. Once a jump to year 2010 or higher is made, the Part II DeLorean and the two Part III DeLoreans (1955 and 1885 railroad) become available at Sunshine Autos, allowing hover capabilities for the Part II DeLorean.

In any time, the Jules Verne Time Train spawns at the top of Vercetti Estate. Its features, while similar, are wholly unique to the Time Train. There is work being done on altering 1985 to look like disheveled 1985-A, as well as models for 1885.

The 0.2e release, which released October 26, 2008, includes updates to the Time Train with moving parts, cold DeLoreans, instantaneous temporal displacement, a re-enactment of Doc's first time travel experiment, enhanced lighting effects and hover effects, smoothing out of harsh transitions, and the first cutscenes, including one based on Back to the Future: The Ride.[1]

Version 0.2f will include Doc Truck animations, The Central Pacific Railroad #131 Rogers locomotive, a revamped Courthouse Square for Hill Valley, various bug fixes and a special surprise. Coming Soon!

Maps

The Ride Mission

The maps will include all of the Hill Valley's, including 1885, 1955, 1985, 1985-A, and 2015. The maps will replace all of Vice City with the famous buildings and landmarks. With these maps the player can go to 1955 and reenact the clock tower run, go to 2015 and get a hover conversion, or just fly around in 1885. The maps will be highly detailed to make you feel as if you are actually in Hill Valley.

1955: The first of the 5 Hill Valleys is being created currently, with Courthouse Square, Hill Valley High School, Doc's mansion, Hill Valley Train Station, Library, and some residential buildings finished. The city currently resides by Fort Baxter Army Base by Escobar International Airport.

Missions

There are two missions in the 0.2e release of the "Back to the Future: Hill Valley" modification: "The Tutorial" and "The Ride". The "1955 Clocktower Race" for Marty to get back to 1985 is also there, but not as a mission.
