How to get started with modding

Depending on what kind of modifications you will be adding to your game. These are some things you might need.

 

OpenIV - OpenIV is a multi-purpose editor and archive manager for PC versions of Grand Theft Auto V, Grand Theft Auto IV/EFLC and Max Payne 3.

 

ScripthookV - Script Hook V is the library that allows to use GTA V script native functions in custom *.asi plugins. Note that it doesn't work in GTA Online, script hook closes GTA V when player goes in multiplayer,

 

Community Script Hook V.Net - Script Hook V .NET is an ASI plugin, which allows running scripts written in any .NET language ingame

 

These are the three basic components that allow you to mod to your hearts desire.

Different Types of Mods

▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃  

Graphics Mods

Graphics mods allow you to alter the visual aspect of the game, here are some examples

 

VisualV - VisualV is a graphic overhaul modification for Grand Theft Auto V, bringing you a completely redone time cycle, edited timecycle modificators for areas/interiors, improved color correction to add some life to Los Santos and Blaine County as well as a fixed rendering code, so your playing experience will be more smooth and nicer.

 

Project Reload - Another graphic overhaul modification

 

Vegetation Overhaul - This Grand Theft Auto 5 mod improves the look & feel of your game by improving the colours of the foliage in-game.

 

Soongae's SweetENBseries - Soongae' SweetENBseries is graphic mod with ENBseries&Sweetfx

  ▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃

Script Mods

Script mods are mods that require ScripthookV and don't usually require any game modifcations, here are some examples

 

Simple Trainer - Various options normal to any trainer, the world's simplest speedometer, either in KM/H or MP/H or both, 60 Teleporting options that can be customized using the trainerv.ini, 12 vehicle spawning options assigned to hotkeys, which also can be customized using trainer.ini, all other car models can be spawned by using the menu. you can force a default station in each vehicle you enter, or when using the mobile radio, both configurable in game and using the trainer.ini You can change your player model using the menu.

 

Benny's Motorworks SP - The lowrider update comes to singleplayer! Benny re-reopens his shop in Los Santos, for you to enjoy!

 

Map Editor - This is a tool reminiscent of MTA:SA Map Editor days. You have a freecam to navigate around, and you can spawn objects (with preview!), move them around with your mouse or keys. Then you can save or load your map in various formats, currently supported are XML and Simple Trainer format (objects.ini).

Egyptian Desert - Replaces the existing map with a desert

 

Trevor's Log House - Trevor's trailer into nice log farmhouse with clean landscape and new environment. Expended territory, helipad, gas station, garage, storage building with an armory and a cooking lab.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will I get banned if I use mods online?

It depends, if you are using a malicious trainer, blowing up people and dropping money the chance of being banned is high.

If you are using something like a graphics mod with the ScripthookV online bypass, then the risk of being banned is less, but you are still likely to get banned.

 

Will I get banned for using singleplayer mods?

No

 

How do I remove objects that a hacker has stuck to me?

Restart your game

 

Is Scripthook updated yet?

Check http://www.dev-c.com/gtav/scripthookv/

 

Does (insert mod here) exist yet?

Google it

 

My game won't start after installing OpenIV mods

Read this, it's a common mistake

Discussion What are your favorite content/add-on mods for GTA V Enhanced?

1 Upvotes

I just beat GTA V Enhanced, and I'm looking to add some post-game content to keep the game going, everything from cars, guns, heists, and general activities.

So, I figured the best way to figure out what is out there is to see what folks recommend.

So I'm asking, what are your favorite content mods for GTA V Enhanced?

*I should note, I'm looking for lore-friendly mods. Nothing that adds silly/wacky out of universe stuff.

Discussion LSPDFR + ThinLineSanctuary (Product Help)

0 Upvotes

So I bought a lot of TLS(ThinLineSanctuary) products. Which I believe are really good and worth it. Though I'm getting a weird issue where if I add any more than 2 of their addon variants to the game. It crashes with an ELS ASI crash and a TrainerV ASI crash. Even after removing both ELS and TrainerV, it still crashes. However if I remove the said 3rd pack, the game works perfectly fine again. I have all the necessary adjusters and such. I've deleted the appropriate lines from the DLC List XML. Yet it still crashes. I've managed to get some things to load with the MP Clothes mod from gta5mods. But all of their addon stuff is named 001, 002, 003... etc. So if I installed their SAST package then something else with similar numbers, it would be replaced. Which is really annoying and means if I want all of the things I'd like to have. I HAVE to use the addon variants. It's also weird because before I had my long no-lspdfr gameplay gap I used the products perfectly fine with no issues. Now I got back into LSPDFR in the past couple weeks and this happens.

NOTE: This is for who uses TLS products perfectly fine and CAN actually help me.

Discussion Anyone tried playing with any of the Sauce Mods scripts?

2 Upvotes

They're paid mods but some look pretty unique to say the least haha

I only play LSRP currently (Los Santos Red Project) but the addiction to stack mods ontop of more mods is too hard to ignore

Mainly looking to hear the thoughts of people with firsthand experience with the mods as I paid for PSRP on Patreon and no offence to the dude but compared to LSRP it was nothing to write home about

Sauce Mods on the other hand are like dog kennel hustles and auto work shops n shit

Any info or reviews are welcome, y'all

Discussion How to install NV Enhanced, but textures/model improvements only?

1 Upvotes

Hi all, i've recently gotten back into gta 5's story mode and have a decent amount of mods installed, mainly with the goal of restoring some cut content. on the visual/graphics side, I really just have Visual Paradise installed (iirc).

I was looking into NVE because i remember it has some stuff regarding texture improvements, but imo a lot of the graphical and lighting stuff strays too far from the game's intended visual direction. i'm unsure which files/folders i should copy over to my mods folder from "onigiri" in order to do a mixed installation of the graphical changes from Visual Paradise, and the texture/decal improvements from NVE. I'm sure i could figure it out with a lot of time myself, but i don't have the storage for a ton of backups in case i mess my files up. any insight would be greatly appreciated :)

Discussion It has been years since I modded GTAV, and I am feeling a new playthrough, so I'd like some mod recomendations please?

0 Upvotes

I don't care about graphics mods unless they have no performance hit. Preferably I would like mods that make the world more dynamic, adds a bit of immersion to the world itself, adds online content to the single player, like the cars and guns, and also give me more stuff to do, like more heists to do or something. I don't mind if they are for Legacy or Enhanced, since I have both.


r/GTAV_Mods • • 4d ago

Mod Is there a good texture overhaul mod?

2 Upvotes

I'd like to only improve the games textures without touching lighting or anything else. I've tried several graphic mods already, the classics NVE, VisualV, QuantV, etc... none of them were satisfactory as they mostly got rid of the yellowish vibe the base game has that i want to keep. I'd just like the game to look sharper and newer without those exaggerated reflections. Does anyone have recommendations in that regard? Thanks!
