I.  Installation
-------------------------

In order to be able to play the missions you must first use the program MafiaDataXTractor to extract the system data
from the A9.dta file. Once this is done copy the file taxi_pas.dat to the newly made system directory in location you
installed mafia to. if you chose the default options when instaling the file to copy over would be somthing like

C:\Program Files\Mafia\System\taxi_pas.dat

So when asked if you want to replace this file click ok.
-------------------------
II. The Missions
-------------------------

there are a variety of new things to try in freeride with this mod. However they all have one thing in common
as you approch a taxi client (this is how you start all these missions) after you stop depending on wether
the mission is a paying mission or a shop the cost (or bonus) will be displayed through your cash score in freeride
by flashing 3 times the amount you will be debited or credited. If you dont have enough money for any of the services
the taxi client will simply walk away.
Some missions require you to Honk your horn in order for the mission to start. This gives you the choice of wether to take 
the mission or not. next we will go through the missions one by one.

IIa.  Bodygaurd
IIb. Plastic Surgon
IIc. SaveGame
IId. Assinaton
IIe. Taxi
IIf. Mystery Shop

-------------------------
IIa. BodyGuards
-------------------------

BodyGuards can be hired in FreeRide mode in this mod. Their are four types of BodyGuard
and their price reflects this difference.

1. Pump action shotgun BogyGaurd   -    $2500
2. Sawn-Off shotgun     BogyGaurd   -    $2750
3. TommyGun               BogyGaurd  -    $3000
4. Sniper                     BodyGaurd   -    $4000
(note: snipers cant shoot from the car)

BodyGuard missions always begin by the bodyguard saying "They Pay Me For Protection"
then he will show you the weapon he is carrying and then his price will be displayed.
at this point (if you have the cash) you can agree to his offer and honk your horn.
now like paulie and sam on meny missions in the game he will follow you around
and protect you.

Orders:
you can give orders to your wing man if you want him to hold his position walk up to him 
and talk to him. 
once he is holding he wont move to engage targets. but will fire from his position.
To get him to hold his position and hold his fire you must first have no weapon in your hand
and then when he is following you tell him to hold. no he will hold his position and not engage targets.

Hint - if you have a bodyguard on hold orders and your in a car you only have to drive close to your
         Bodyguard and honk your horn to get him to follow you.


Skills:
BodyGuards have Skills that increase as they kill more enemys.
the skills that increse are 

Energy
Shooting
Speed

All BodyGuards start out with 100 energy, like the player when a bodyguards energy reaches 0 he is dead.
a fully devoloped bodyguards energy is 200, it will take him 100 kills to achive this.
All BodyGuards start out with random shooting and speed skills these increse by one for each enemy they kill.
If you want to check a bodyguards skill you only have to tell him to hold position and hold fire as explained above
and his skills will be displayed through his wingman indicator.

Healing:
All BodyGuards Heal if there not busy worrying about the enemy. also if you have a bodyguard under your employment
you will be healed by his medical skill too. you and your bodyguard will heal at the rate of one energy point a minuite.
Some times its smart to let your bodyguard have a rest from time to time.

Ammo:
If you notice your BodyGuard using his secondary weapon you should bring him to the Yellow Petes GunShop
just park outside and he will run in and replinish his ammo stocks and run back to you.
You are not charged for this, It comes out of your BodyGuards Wallet.

Locations:
BodyGuards are found everywhere but most notibly around salaries in Little Italy and around Morrellos in New Ark
However if you want to only go shopping for bodyguards the best place is in the far west of the workers quarter
you will only find bodyguards here.

Note: Ocassionaly the bodyguard will get lazy and not want to leave the car. If this happins to your bodyguard
         pull him out of the car and that will wake him up.

Note: You cant save your bodyguards

Note: Only one Bodyguard is supported, you can hire two if you like but i wouldent let them meet.:)
