Do GTA San Andreas cheats disable achievements?
Yes — any active cheat disables saving and 100% completion tracking for that session. Reload your save to reset.
Cheats & safety guide
Important disclaimer
All GTA San Andreas cheats are single-player only. None carry over to GTA Online. Cheats temporarily disable saving — reload your save after disabling them.
GTA San Andreas cheats are official Rockstar-built features. Enter them as keyboard strings on PC, controller button combos on console, or through the in-game phone on some platforms. All codes disable save ability for that session and prevent 100% completion achievements.
Type these strings directly during gameplay on PC — no prefix, no menu. A notification confirms each code. Cheats disable saving for the session; reload your save to resume normal play. Controller combos exist for PS2/Xbox but differ — these are the PC strings.
PC
Type the cheat string during gameplay (not in a menu). A small message confirms it worked.
PS2 / Xbox
Enter the button combo equivalent — refer to the Rockstar Games manual or the in-game stats menu for console codes.
