 The screen is black for the title page and the menu.  Moves are only

I got it!!

I had to hack the binary file gta3.set.
dd if=/dev/zero of=gta3.set bs=1652 count=1

After that the game would start, but you can not play. You need to go
into the Control and Audio pages and reset them to default. Do NOT set
Display options to default, but instead only adjust(I max) the distance
setting. I also turn on subtitles.

Then that game loads and runs fine.

Working GTA3, sometimes.

The game always(mostly) loads under cedega 5.1.1, but I only get a
working setup now and then.

Mostly the screen is black and no-one seams to know how to test what
'black' means.
