Well,

There's a few scripting libraries for SP:

Scripting framework	Language	Features/Notes
ScriptHookV	C++	Barebones scripting interface, decently popular, standalone
ScriptHookVDotNet	C#/.NET languages	Powerful scripting interface, very popular, builds on ScriptHookV
RagePluginHook	C#/.NET languages	Powerful scripting interface, not as popular, standalone

The raw "API" to the game is using script natives (essentially, functions R* uses in their scripts), which all the scripting frameworks resolve for you.

ScriptHookVDotNet and RagePluginHook throw some more abstraction into this for convenience, and group common functionality together in classes/objects.

If you want to do things that the natives don't expose - you could try messing with game memory, directly.

@Gount

Welcome! GTA modding isn't as nicely integrated as TES/Skyrim. As far as I know, there haven't been any real mod collections. Mod creators often do link related and/or recommended mods to use, but there's no proper (existing) collections.

Vehicle packs do exist, such as VanillaWorks Enhanced or IVPack, but are scarce, mainly due to most pack attempts either do not contact the original creators and/or cobbling together performance-unfriendly vehicles.

A mod pack, called Redux exists, which combines lots of components, but is shunned by the community because initially it used stolen assets, re-labeled as their own work. I am not up to date on its current status regarding that.

Could be a nice idea to start this effort yourself!

Regarding the mods folder - yes. Say you want to replace a file in x64e.rpf, you need to copy that into the mods folder before working on it. This applies to any file: first copy the rpf file into the mods folder, and then only edit the file in the mods folder.

When you install an .oiv file with OpenIV, it will automatically copy the needed rpf files, provided you have a mods folder present.

CodeWalker sounds like something like that, though the details/requirements you give sound vague. In any case, you might want to join the discussion or even check out the source.

Why not collaborate

@Matu94
The scripts are loaded through ScriptHookV, itself being loaded by the asi loader. If you disable the asi loader, ScriptHookV, mods depending on ScriptHookV and basically all other asi scripts will be disabled.

You can't play GTA: Online with mods. If you wish to play online with friends with mods, try FiveM or some other similar thing like that.

If you used OpenIV's "mods" folder, you can simply disable the asi loader (dinput8.dll) and the game should be as good as unmodded.

Seriously? You would've had your answer if you just googled whatever you just posted.

Try that pinned topic

Pretty sure I'll have more success trying to convince a brick wall that the earth is round, but here I go!

@HarleyQuinnSquad

We are on topic

The thread was more intended for inquiries but somehow you managed to bend the goalposts to arguing the moral legality of DMCAs.

but please tell me why we are allowed to be bullied by Jitnaught

He's just trying to explain how the status quo is.

when we are clearly having a debate over these DMCAs.

Thus; moving goalposts from the original thread. If it's not clear yet - announcement generally entails more administrative stuff. You could argue that bacteria in toilets also have the right to live, but that won't change the decision from Facilities to clean the toilets.

Then he tells me that I don't have free speech on these forums, which is a load of crap.

This is a private entity. Think of it as a house. I can kick you out of my house if you insult my dog. He's a good boy.

He gives us our own forum to discuss these DMCAs, then locks it.

As explained by Jitnaught before, it was intended as archive, but since you lot can't shut up I'm re-purposing it as discussion thread.

Please explain to me why these actions are considered civil and allowed.

We're moderators and we moderate.

I am accused of being rude, but all I can see is that Jitnaught can't take the truth.

You are rude. If somebody tells you to move your car out of the handicapped parking spot but you keep arguing about what handicapped actually means, that's kinda rude.

It's still actively developed

Not sure how far away any next release is, but I guess Guad might also be waiting for the ScriptHookVDotNet v3 release if that ever comes.

Discussing console modding is against the community guidelines. That's all.

@FelixTheBlackCat

We already have a karma system, though any karma system is completely useless in my mind. Constructive posts should be able to stand on themselves without leaning on the reputation of the poster.

Discriminating between paying users and free users is disgusting. The modding community is already discutable as-is, with paid exclusive mods and paid GTA:O cheating, there's absolutely no reason to make this place as toxic as the rest by throwing in money-for-reputation.

@krashadam
All mods are put through VirusTotal, including tools and other trainers.

Most trainers just use the natives and at most do some pattern scanning and pointer manipulation. As Unknown said on Discord, it's the .exe/.dll protection that causes this detection. Maybe some virus scanners don't like that they can't work with Menyoo due to its protection.

What about you test that yourself? It's simple, just keep throwing out mods until it stops being slow.

OpenInteriors, DismembermentASI and ArrestPedV are ScriptHookV scripts btw, .asi scripts don't get loaded when inside the scripts folder afaik.

A ScriptHookVDotNet log file might also help.

Why can't you ask for help normally and always resort to "please help!!!!!!!!!"?

You need to learn some programming. Best just to use whatever trainer's out there.

Why can't y'all just wait. The thing now usually takes over a week to update. If you like your modded game so much, make a backup after each update. There's like dozens of pinned threads telling you to.

@Mahmouddiabe46
Try to buy the damn game if you care so much.

Took the liberty to put your code in a more readable shape. Use wrap your code with 3 backticks (```) before and after the code, to put it in a code block.

Code things:

Have you set all spawned vehicles as mission entities? They can despawn if not.

That for loop. Got a specific reason for iterating from max-1 to 0? If not, use a range-based for loop. It would look like this:

foreach(vehicle in Enemy1Vehicles) {
  // things happen
}

You wouldn't need to manage Ped and Vehicle in that function any more.

That if statement. It's rather big. Think of splitting it up in more manageable chunks. Things that are strange:

• currentoc == null: I wouldn't expect currentv.Occupants to return a nullptr. If you look at the source, this doesn't seem to be able to happen
• You're checking if it's occupied? Putting that explicitly helps debugging later on.
• Same with distance.

You're removing an item from a list while you're iterating through that list. That's not a good idea. Since you're removing everything anyway, empty the list when you're done handling the contents. This is where it probably crashes.

I applied my suggestions, hopefully I guessed your intentions right

    private void ClearLists()
    {
        foreach (var vehicle in Enemy1Vehicles)
        {
            bool hasOccupants = vehicle.Occupants.Length > 0;
            bool isInRange = World.GetDistance(vehicle.Position, Game.Player.Character.Position) < maxRange;
            if (vehicle.Exists() && (!hasOccupants || !vehicle.IsAlive || !isInRange) || !MostWantedEnabled)
            {
                if (vehicle.CurrentBlip.Exists()) vehicle.CurrentBlip.Remove();
                vehicle.MarkAsNoLongerNeeded();
            }
        }
        Enemy1Vehicles.Clear();

        foreach (var ped in Enemy1Peds)
        {
            bool isInRange = World.GetDistance(ped.Position, Game.Player.Character.Position) < maxRange;
            if (ped.Exists() && (!ped.IsAlive || !isInRange) || !MostWantedEnabled)
            {
                if (ped.CurrentBlip.Exists()) ped.CurrentBlip.Remove();
                ped.MarkAsNoLongerNeeded();
            }
        }
        Enemy1Peds.Clear();
    }

You can disable mods by disabling the asi loader: dinput8.dll.

I think INSANOGAMES is trying to profit from making textures for these models.

Well, basing your business on some other business is not illegal and if people want to pay for the skins he makes for the models alex189 makes, fine. As long as files uploaded to GTA5-Mods.com are not paywalled in any form and he doesn't redistribute files he doesn't have permission for.

If Alex has any issues, he can report or contact the site.

Learn some converting/modeling and port/create your own peds of whatever color skin you want. Nobody is going to make stuff just for "diversity". Be the change you wish to see.

@zeroxzerotwo
I don't think Rockstar or Take Two licensed their products under one of these public licenses.

Also it might be fair use, but taking other peoples' work and putting your own name under it is still being an ass.

Thank you to everybody who helped in some way or another

Source code available on Github.

Sometimes people comment on your mods without explicitly tagging you. If you don't have many mods, it's not an issue checking out new comments manually. With more mods, it becomes a bit of unnecessary work. Can we have an option to notify on all uploaded mods?

How about giving it some time, like all updates before this???

Apparently my implementation is less than perfect and doesn't work well on Thrustmaster devices. I only got one report or something though.

Meanwhile the G920 + SHVDN is still broken.

My email to Logitech has been met with silence.
Thrustmaster's reply:

There is no other support that we can provide you with. The SDK or any other technical details regarding the FFB functions of the unit are not available for distribution.

That's it then, I guess. It should be feature complete and aside from a tiny few bug fixes I can't do anything more.

+ I doubt anybody's still actively following this mod, so time to drop it after tidying things up.
