After the recent launch of the highly anticipated PC edition of "Grand Theft Auto V," several gaming enthusiasts had started tinkering with the game; a few of these players developed mods that could be used to enhance the visuals quality of the game that was already hailed for its beauty. However, there would be some guidelines to follow in using mods in the "GTA V," especially if the mods to be used to enhance to performance of the players.
One of these mods would be the "experimental version of the mod FiveM," based on a report from Gamepur. The mod was already made available and it would allow players "to have an advanced multiplayer environment with dedicated servers and the chance to create, and play user-created, news modes for the Rockstar Games open world."
FiveM created a mod that would be based on the "solid multiplayer framework" was set by Rockstar Games as part of the Rage Engine. Apart from that, the future versions of the mod would include a server browser to select servers with custom rules and user-generated modes. Nonetheless players should be reminded that since this would be an experimental mod, it might be possible that the mod would not work properly on their "GTA V" copies.
Meanwhile, Rockstar Games clarified that the use of mods were perfectly fine as long as the players do not use performance enhancing mods, based on a report from WCCFTech. Rockstar Games replied to a player who asked about the use of mods in "Grand Theft Auto V." Rockstar Games' letter read, "Cosmetic mods are not a bannable [sic] offense." On the other hand, an FOV mod that offered an advantage over other players in "GTA V" could not be considered as a cosmetic mod.
Also, Rockstar Games already released the latest patch for "GTA V" PC edition. PC Patch 350.1 would be fixing a lot of issues; however, it would also disable many of the mods based on the observation of the "GTA V" modding community. A few of the fixes included in PC Patch 350.1 would be "vehicles in your garage can no longer be accidentally replaced with vehicles from the street;" "fixed an issue where the game could freeze if you were robbing a store while someone else was attempting to buy snacks there;" "GTA Online characters can now be added to your shortlist in the Rockstar Editor," to name a few.
Add to that, Rockstar Games also released a few helpful tips to "Grand Theft Auto V" PC edition players, based on a report from Inquisitr. The following tips were originally posted in Rockstar Games' support website:
"1.) First and foremost, be sure to launch the game while connected to the Internet so that you get the latest patch. It will be automatically applied if you don't have it. Patches address many issues reported by players."
"2.) Be sure your graphics card drivers are up to date."
"3.) Next, check to see that you have the latest version of Social Club installed, and that there are no corrupt or missing files for that installation."
"4.) If your Social Club launcher is starting, but the game will not launch, try verifying your installation. This will let the Social Club launcher (or Steam, for Steam versions) verify all game files and re-download any that are corrupt or missing."
"5.) If you are seeing any errors with 'C++', 'D3D', or 'DirectX', there may be an issue with your DirectX or C++ installation."
"6.) Any Anti-Virus program could potentially block GTAV access, especially when not properly configured for use with GTAV. Please make sure that GTAV is listed as an exception in these programs."
"7.) Check your "launcher.log" file located in "My DocumentsRockstar GamesGTA V". There are helpful errors there that may give more information to assist you in resolving the problem. You can search the Support Site for specific info in that file."
