Back to the Future: Hill Valley is the official name for a fan made modification of Rockstar Game's Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. It is a spin off fro the movie trilogy Back to the Future. It was originally started when fans of the movie felt that they needed a good 3D game for their favorite movies of all time. Although there are Back to the future games for NES, they wanted something with sandbox mode, missions, and overall more freedom. The mod it's self has grown to the point that it's almost no longer a mod, and more like an independent game just using GTA Vice City to grow from.

About the mod
Back to the Future: Hill Valley is a full conversion Mod, being made for Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. BTTF: Hill Valley will allow the player to re-experience all the great moments from the films. It's the modders goal to not stray too far from the original story line; while still adding in new content to the game that enhances the game experience. You can relive one of the best movies of all time, in the outstanding game play of the Sandbox hit, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. This mod is sure to bring countless hours of fun to anybody who enjoyed the movies.

- Without Plutonium, you need a lightning strike to get back home. Time Limit Mission.

- Mentor takes you to 2015 and leaves the delorean to you at the garage, while he goes off on some adventure

Progress
As of right now the mod is in the later stages of finishing up 0.2f, which can mean that there is anywhere from 3 months to a year left. There is really no way to keep all the progress updated through wikipedia, but of course you can always check the official website and forum for daily updates and progress.

The Following text was spoken by Administrator "Mike" over on the forum's topic "Mikes Mod Blog"

''"To stop the constant "when is 0.2f being released" topics, I'm posting this here and will try to keep it reasonably up-to-date.

Q) When will 0.2f be released? A) It will be released when it's ready and not before, rushing it out is what caused 0.2e to be a failure.

However, here's a progress update of sorts:

Doc's Truck - Team Owners: Mini-Me/BACKINTIME Status: Animations are complete. A condition for the truck to only work with the BTTF1 del has yet to be fully coded, however there is a bug when using RC mode on the DeLorean that needs to be fixed.

No. 131 Rogers Locomotive - Team Owners: Mini-Me/BACKINTIME Status: Animations are complete, spawning restricted to 1800 to 1950, train push code has been updated to work only with the Rogers locomotive. Steam effects etc have yet to be coded.

Detail lowering on all non relavent vehicles - Team Owner: Mark Status: In progress, completion estimate 2 - 3 months.

Hill Valley Town Square revamp - Team Owners: DK/Liam Status: In progress, completion estimate 3 - 4 months."''

Release
The first Betas of the mod were released with very few features as a way of testing and keeping everyone entertained. Version 0.1 was released as a way of celebrating the first major steps of the mod, currently the mod is in their 0.2e phase and is for the most part completely done coding the game and is finishing up on vehicles. It's been rumored that the next version of the mod after 0.2f (which will fix bugs and add a few more features) will be 0.3, where Hill Valley will be added and you can drive around Marty's home town and travel through time at the clock tower.

"The final version (1.0) won't be for a while." Says one of the former mod founders, Delorean88us. "It will be finished when it's finished"

The way the mod will progress:
- 0.2f: Fixing the remaining bugs that are in 0.2e and missing features.

- 0.3x: Completion of the 1955 Hill Valley map.

- 0.4x: 1955 missions.

- 0.5x: Completion of the 1985 Hill Valley map.

- 0.6x: 1985 missions.

- 0.7x: Completion of the 2015 Hill Valley map.

- 0.8x: 2015 missions.

- 0.9x: Completion of the 1885 Hill Valley map.

- 1.0x: 1885 missions and the end of the mod.
