Install & use Install: GTA V script mod (single-player)
- Check your game edition first — Legacy and Enhanced do not share mods; follow the readme to pick the right build.
- Script mods (.dll / .asi / .lua / .cs) usually need ScriptHookV plus the matching ScriptHookVDotNet build for your .NET version.
- Unzip and place the files as the readme says — game root or the scripts/ folder (.dll files usually go in scripts/).
- Use them in single-player or invite-only sessions only; joining Online with mods can get you banned.
The 'About this mod' section keeps the author's full description — where it gives exact steps, follow those. Use script mods in single-player only; joining Online with mods can get you banned.
