FAQ

Does this modify GTA5.exe? No. Core binaries are never touched — see Safety Model.

Can I use mods in GTA Online? No. Use mods only in Story Mode. Modding GTA Online violates Rockstar's Terms of Service. Use Game Setup and Launch → Launch Clean to play Online without your mods active.

Do I need to install .NET? Not for the self-contained release build — it's self-contained. A smaller framework-dependent build is also published, which does need the .NET 8 Desktop Runtime; see Getting Started.

Does the update check or nightly install send my data anywhere? No. They only read public GitHub release information and (for the nightly) download the official archive.

Where did my original files go? They are copied into backups\ before any change and can be restored from there, or via Restore mods for the whole folder — see Backup and Restore and Data Locations and Logs.

Can I use .rar/.7z mod archives? Not directly — extract them with your usual archive tool first, then select the extracted folder. .zip archives are unpacked automatically. See Installing Mods.

My game is running and an action is blocked — why? Install, uninstall, enable/disable, and Launch Game are all blocked while the game process is detected as running, so mod files are never moved out from under a live session. Close the game and retry.

Something went wrong — where do I look? Check the newest file under logs\ (one per day) — see Data Locations and Logs. If the app itself failed to start, check crash.log next to the executable.
