GTA 5 PC patch disables mods. Here’s how to get them working again

4.7
A new patch for the PC version of GTA 5 was released yesterday and, as it turns out, has wiped the ability to use mods with the game.

The wasn’t great news for some players, but YouTuber taltigolt has already figured out how to play the PC version with mods after installing the patch.

Matt detailed the patch notes yesterday which include fixing freezing and crashing bugs, and issues when launching the game in offline mode.

There are all sorts of mods available, from customising cars, to a zombie apocalypse, so fans will no doubt be happy about the workaround.

Empyrean The patch is perfect in my opinion, it's stupid that PC gamers think that because they have a PC that they think they can mod games. Modding games is against the rules in most games so why do PC gamers think they're above the rest?


Incorrect.
Most games on Steam allow modding. PC Gamers are allowed.

Beet This pisses me off. I wish they would allow private servers like other games so you don't have to worry about. Also banning single player mods is rediculous. Modding is what makes pc gaming what it is and r* is trying to hold the game back. Why do they not support or even encourage mods like the other pc game developers do? It increases sales, adds to the community, and maintains replayability.


Because they want people to actually play the game to earn their shit and not cheat their way there.

Znait They won't unban me. Screw rockstar, I was recording footage with friends for a video I was doing for school simulating the great depression.


Don't mod. I'm glade they banned you. Play the game legit. Besides, you broke the EULA lmao so it's kinda well..... Your fault.


Sigh...

Never in their ToS did they state that FOV mods were banable. That's why many people were banned without even knowing why.


Whats a FOV? Field of view right? Rockstar set the FOV not the user. The ToS does not allow mods. You sir must be an idiot if you think that in every ToS say each mod. Also FOV does provide an unfair advantage because it allows you to see more around you.


"unfair advantage" We're talking about mostly Single Player here buddy.

When support was contacted they responded saying FOV is not something they'd ban for. But they still did it. That's the problem with this whole thing right now.



It's fine man. Can't be seeing more than those darn NPC's! That'd be cheating!
