GTA 5 modding

[HippY]

Hey guys,

 

As GTA 5 is on sale now, I am thinking about picking it up (played it a lot on Xbox 360 years ago, but I feel like I need this game in my library)

 

There is only one thing, as title suggest: modding

OpenIV has closed down AFAIK, and I have used that tool for very long time, and I do not know if that is any other tool to insert mods into the game (like cars, textures, driving mods ect.)

 

Are there any tools that can access GTA packed files for modding?

I don't think any one should purchase GTA V any more after what they did to force them reconsidering it, the massive negative reviews on Steam are hilarious, rockstar shot its foot on this one.

 

I can't remember the last time I played it... although I do love GTA V Driving mechanics better than any racing game out there currently.

F*ck take-two.

What they did was complete BS and people are mad because of it.

You haven't bought it, speak with your money and keep it in your pocket, or spend it on something else.

Take-Two was the body that took OpenIV down, and they are the business people behind Rockstar.

 

Anyways, it is a game that I want, and I will not buy money in GTA online, so I only want single player with mods, occasional fun with online with mates

I was seriously looking to get it on the Summer Sale simply for the mods, now I won't be bothering. I've already played the story mode and online on PS4, that got old fast. No point in buying it again for just the same stuff.

The only mods you can use now are Script Hook mods...which include the mods used to cheat in Online (of course, it also includes many awesome mods like Emergency Lighting System, which you can't cheat with). With OpenIV gone, you can no longer replace any of the files. You'll have to use stock cars, stock textures, stock characters, stock anything.

 

If you don't have OpenIV already, you can't download it. Because of that, I wouldn't buy GTA if I was looking to mod, unfortunately.

to be honest i completely understand why rockstar did it,but at the same time i don't see why they would stop people from modding the single player i mean if people are using mods online then hell yeah stop them but i don't see why they would stop people from modding single player as it only affects your game and your experience and not anyone else. If you got friends to play the online and intended to play the single player then yeah go for it otherwise i wouldn't pick it up

T2 is a fucking scumbag of a publisher and they should be ashamed of themselves. They crippled modding on GTAV and GTAIV. Don't buy their games, I know I sure as hell won't be  

Oh look at these reviews! This is what happens when you disrupt the modding scene on GTAV.

The reason they're so keen on shutting down OpenIV specifically, is because it allows people to gain access to Online-only DLC content in Single Player. That way, people can enjoy the content without spending hours upon hours grinding repetitive missions in Online, and more to the point - without being presented with a dozed different ways of speeding up said acquisition, namely by purchasing Shark Cards. When players access the content, without having micro transactions waved under their noses, T2 are potentially losing money in a way. That's what they want to stop. Not "hackers".

 

The only people affected by the ban, are people enjoying their single player mods and content creators (Twitch-streamers, YouTubers) playing mods like LCPDFR, which is - I mean - WAS quite entertaining.

 

EDIT: The current 50% sale on V is kinda pathetic - seems like damage control, no? I bet they wouldn't have even put it on sale, if not for the OpenIV debacle, and the poor ratings.
