Tips on how to install any mod, tips on replacing many cars at a time and what meta data you can ignore, how to convert add-On cars to replace, and all sorts of other cool shit you can mod in to GTA V.

It lets you use a folder similar to the mods folder that lets you place all your replace car files loose in a single folder, that way once you build a massive folder with 100+ cars you can keep a copy of it for when a game update breaks your modded game.Ĭheck out the guide I linked too, it has all this info and more, along with mod suggestions many good mods listed for you to check out. In that case I install in all locations to be safe, you can just replace the last file but I do them all cuz why not?Īlso check this mod out to speed up re-modding your game. Sometimes the readme is wrong or the car has multiple locations. Use this to find file paths for cars(or any in game file)by simply searching the file name.

When you go to edit any RPF or important file, or you go to replace files that were included with the clean game, right click on the item you are going to edit/replace and click "add to mods folder". Make sure you install all 3 items by clicking "install" next to each one Open OpenIV and install the ASI Loader and such under 'tools > ASI Manager'. There's really no way to fix it now unless you reinstall the game, but in the future, when installing mods to GTA V, follow these steps:
