Looking for a list of ridiculous GTA 5 mods? Rockstar’s grandiose RPG has been out in the PC wilds for a few years now, so we’ve seen our fair share of inventive GTA 5 mods. No longer just a few cheats and trainers, the modding scene is now rife with crazy additions, useful tweaks, and big transformations.
If you’re considering adding a few little non-developer-approved improvements to your game, take your pick from our list of the best available.
A word of caution: many players are getting banned from GTA Online for the use of mods. Head over to the GTA V sub-Reddit to see what we’re talking about. Rockstar Support claim that cosmetic mods are not a bannable offence, but it seems like certain mods – like the FOV mod – can be picked up as a ‘cheat’ by GTA Online, and slam you with the ban hammer. Please be cautious when using mods, and preferably stay campaign-only when using them.
How do I install Grand Theft Auto V mods?
Installing GTA V mods is really simple. You just need to copy the mod files you’ve downloaded into the main GTA V folder. If you’re using the Steam version of the game, this will be probably be:
c:program files (x86)SteamSteamAppscommonGrand Theft Auto V
or similar. If you’re not using the Steam version, you’ll need to find the main game folder with the GTAV.exe file in.
Many GTA V mods use Script Hook V as a base, and will require you have it installed for them to work. Simply download Script Hook V, open the .zip folder and find the ‘bin’ folder, and copy and paste the three files into the main Grand Theft Auto V folder.
Remember: modding is not allowed in GTA Online. It’s best to make a backup of your original, clean Grand Theft Auto V folder so you can quickly reset the game back to ‘vanilla’ should you wish to play online. Don’t attempt to play online with mods, as this could result in being temporarily or permanently banned from Rockstar’s Social Club.
GTA Open All Interiors
Grand Theft Auto V’s Los Santos may be huge, but there’s still plenty of areas closed off to you. Frequently you’ll see huge tourist attractions that look like they’ll be explorable, only to walk up and discover their doors permanently locked. This Open All Interiors mod makes plenty of previously locked buildings explorable, just for a little added authenticity.
GTA Gravity Gun
From the moment Valve put the Gravity Gun in Half-Life 2, manipulating objects in zero-G has been a go-to feature for almost every modding community. This is GTA V’s Gravity Gun mod, and it does exactly what you expect it to. Watch out for hurling cars.
the simpsons springfield Police pack
Police are often associated with fear and keeping order in various unruly towns and cities. But it doesn’t have to be that way. The Simpsons Springfield Police pack replaces the fuzz’s various vintage cars and subs them with the various vehicles you recognise from Springfield. No sign of Chief Wiggum though, sadly.
GTA Basic Needs
Quite honestly, if you’re a PC game and you’re not a survival sim, you’re doing it wrong. At least that’s what the ‘New’ tab on Steam suggests. Make GTA V a survival game by adding some Basic Needs to the game. Having fun is only as important as eating and sleeping, so keep filling your face and taking naps.
GTA Fuel Script V
To add a touch more realism to your urban sandbox, why not make vehicles burn fuel? Before engaging in a wild chase, make sure you’re fuelled up, because running dry with six cops ramming your tail end won’t finish well.
GTA 5 Trucking Missions
One of the PC’s most beloved games is Euro Truck Simulator, proving we somehow adore doing mundane tasks in games for zero pay. Trucking Missions brings the joy of Euro Truck to Los Santos and the surrounding area, which thanks to lax gun laws and the local meth-head population is a far more dangerous/exciting world than the motorways of Europe.
The Red House missions and heists
Grand Theft Auto V isn’t exactly short of missions, but you’ll run out eventually. Thankfully modders are here to keep you well stocked, and The Red House adds more than twenty new missions including assassinations and gang clean-outs to the game, plus a new heist.
GTA Zombies
Everyone else is stuffing zombies in their game, so why not GTA? This mod allows you to fill the streets of Los Santos with crowds of the walking dead for round-based survival. Fend off each successive wave of corpses for bigger and better rewards.
GTA Car Jetpacks
It’s 2015, and we still don’t have flying cars. It’s a problem in the real world, but not in virtual Los Santos, where with a little bit of coding you can stick jetpacks on cars. Ignore traffic queues and get there on time.
GTA RPG
With its heavy story, huge world, and massive length, GTA V is almost an RPG. Don’t settle for almost though; swap genres entirely with this GTA RPG mod. It adds a questing system to the game, a character creator, and even branching dialogue trees. Forget about making big bucks, make big XP instead.
GTA Iron Man armour
There’s absolutely no reason to trundle around Los Santos in a car when you could strap on some exoskeleton armour and blast off into the skies. That’s exactly what you can do with this Iron Man armour. It also comes in handy for gang warfare, since it is equipped with repulsor blasters in the palms and chest. If the war escalates, you could always upgrade to the chunky Hulkbuster variant.
R*enhancer Photorealism
GTA IV’s champion mod was Icenhancer, a graphical mod that made Liberty City look genuinely real. If you’re looking for a similar effect in GTA V, R*enhancer Photorealism is the way to go. It’s a lighting overhaul that adjusts atmospheric effects and works wonders on car reflections. The enhanced weather really adds to the feel.
GTA Funny Vehicles
No one wants to drive normal cars. You can do that in real life. Instead, we want to drive a DeLorean DMC-12 time machine, or a Batmobile, or that thing from The Flintstones. Simply copy and paste a few files and you can drive all these cars and more in GTA V.
GTA Better Deformation
Thanks to the fact that no one can drive properly, you spend quite a lot of time involved in car crashes in GTA V. They’re never quite spectacular though; there’s none of those twisted door pillars and engines hanging from torn body work. Better Deformation makes an art form of car destruction, and encourage you to take less good care of your vehicles.
Crime & Police Rebalance and Enhancement
You’ve only got to accidentally clip a cyclist with your wing mirror and suddenly the cops are chasing you down. No one even dialed 911, and you won’t get away with a caution. It’s jail time for you, and you’ll be filled with bullets before the cuffs go on. Some would argue that this is a realistic depiction of US policing, but it certainly isn’t fair gameplay. Crime & Police adjusts the detection system; an NPC has to report your crime first, and you can prevent them from dialing. Enemy accuracy scales with speed, so in a car chase they won’t still hit with pinpoint precision. And silencers are now more effective, allowing you to stealth missions with much more effectiveness. Your wanted level is also more logical; getting a single star won’t have the entire LSPD hunting you down.
Drive GTA 5 Train
How do you drive the train in GTA 5? It won’t stop. It has no feelings. It is a physics-defying metal snake of sorts. Install this script however and you’ll be permitted to hop inside the cabin and take over control of the train. Speed up, slow down. Stop. Go. All of the main train driving options are available to you. Looks a little janky, mind.
GTA 5 Nice Fly
This one lets you fly around like some kind of superb man. You must be wearing a parachute in order for it to work, because safety is paramount.
No Water + Tsunami + Atlantis Mod
The amount of effort Rockstar put into designing Los Santos’s seabed is inversely proportional to the effort modders put into naming mods. That said, the “No Water + Tsunami + Atlantis Mod” allows you to edit the game’s sea level to either drain the oceans or flood the city, turning it into either Mad Max or Waterworld, respectively.
GTA 5 Pedestrian Riot
Hearkening back to the old days of Grand Theft Auto 3’s cheat codes, the Pedestrian Riot mod causes all civilians to be aggressive towards you and one another. It also arms them with random weapons, resulting in all kinds of unpredictable madness to unfold. Try climbing to a safe vantage point and watching as the city tears itself apart.
GTA 5 The Army Spawns At Five Stars
In older Grand Theft Auto games, back when Rockstar took themselves only slightly less seriously, the armed forces would arrive to take you down if your murderous rampage went on too long. Grand Theft Auto V ditched this top-tier wanted level, but this mod puts it back in place. Get a five-star notoriety and you’ll be pursued by the nation’s finest. The mod’s pragmatic title sounds weirdly poetic too.
GTA 5 Ragdoll on Demand
Television – that antiquated thing where you passively observe other people doing things – has made a lot of money out of people falling over. Bring the hilarity of candid camera to GTA with the Ragdoll on Demand mod, and you – yes YOU! – can decide the exact moment someone falls over! It even works in cutscenes, meaning you can add a touch of funny to even the most serious gangster-business talks.
GTA 5 Native Trainer
Another trainer, so technically a cheat more than a mod, but Native delves deep into the source code of GTA V to allow you to turn on and off a variety of interesting settings. Fancy enjoying a little low gravity? Simply hit the on button from an in-game menu and easily bunny-hop down the Vinewood hills with huge jumps and little danger to your health. You can even swap out character models and become a cat for the day.
North Yankton GTA
An extension for the Native Trainer, this unlocks the Fargo-like area of North Yankton. This is the area where the game’s prologue takes place, and is inaccesable from Los Santos. So if you fancied heading back there, unlock the boarders with this mod.
GTA Expanded Field Of View
When playing the game in first-person, GTA V’s field of view can feel a little restricted. There is a slider in the camera settings menu that allows you to alter it, but the highest setting is a measly 55 degrees. Modder DrDaxxy has remedied this oversight with a little bit of code that allows you to set your FOV to any value you fancy. You’ll need to edit the fov.txt file to do so, but that little bit of fiddling will mean you can finally see Los Santos with the eyes it was always meant for.
GTA 5 Virtual Reality
If there’s one game world that really needs to be experienced through virtual reality, it’s Los Santos. By using a program calledVorpX, the FoV mod above, and the video tutorial below, you can get GTA V running in VR on an Oculus Rift DK 2. It’s a little crude right now, but still allows a functional armchair visit to digital LA.
SweetFX GTA graphics enhancer
Not strictly a custom GTA V mod, SweetFX is a graphics post-processing injector that adds a variety of fancy visual effects to games. It can be used on pretty much anything, but tests on GTA V reveal that it runs pretty much perfectly. The enhanced look removes the washed-out feel the game can sometimes have, providing bolder and deeper colours.
GTA God Mode Trainer
If when you think of mods your brain automatically points in the director of infinite health, ammo, and money, then not only are you a big cheater, but you’ll want to have a look at this trainer mod. Aside from the infinite provisions, you’ll also be able to leave behind the days of walking too slow and reloading guns. And you’ll handily be able to teleport around the map, completely removing the need to drive cars, and thus play half of the game.
GTA OpenIV Tool
If making mods is more your thing, you’ll want to get your hands on OpenIV. It’s the toolset used to access and edit the game files of GTA IV and Max Payne 3, but clever PC gamers have managed to get the program to unpack GTA V. So far the tool only allows you to view the names of textures, audio, animations, and models; no edits can be made right now. But this is probably going to be the key to making major modifications to the game, so if you want to be part of the mod community it’s best you keep an eye on OpenIV.

Greetings fellow virtual criminals!
So I've been a fan of GTA since the very-very-very first top-down-view release and GTAV is a really well crafted, beautiful open world to fool around in once the story is done.
Since GTAOnline is a bit of a bust, due to the clunky team creation and rampant hacker presence, I've thought it'd be really good to try some of the 'conversion' mods on the singleplayer, BUT - there's always a but - I can't figure out how to install them or how to make them work.
My current goal would be to install the Real Life MOD, and I've followed the step-by-step instructions on the page but when I'm loadin' the game up ain't nothing changed.
I've managed to have the 'trainer' working, and it's really fun to run around like the Flash or leap over buildings, jump from truck to truck on the highway, but it doesn't offer content.
So I've thought I'll ask the community of this subreddit, because it seems there are plenty of MODs to go around and many of you enjoying them, so you surely have managed to figure out the installation methods that are actually working.
TL;DR: I'd need a step-by-step guide about how to install MODs in general, using the Real Life MOD as example - got the 'trainer' working, but nothing else.
Thanks to the patience and help of u/Blaxoutalot I've finally managed to get the mod to work, so to anyone who is attempting to use this mod or anything that's similar, the list of required things may help:
and you may need the OpenIV if you plan to add cars and other stuff, but it's ain't necessary for the Real Life Mod.
On a clean install you'll need to create a folder named 'scripts' and pay attention to each component's 'Installation' location described on their respective pages, because some of them need to go into the main GTAV folder and some into the scripts folder.

The PC version of Grand Theft Auto V offers many advantages over the console release. Better graphics, improved multiplayer, and support for higher resolutions are among them. Yet all of these pale in comparison to the most important advantage of all: Modifications.
An open-world game like GTA V begs to be modded, and on PC, that’s possible. Naturally, it has led to plenty of insanity that can multiply the game’s fun factor or increase its longevity. Here are the 20 must-have mods every player needs to install.
Script Hook V and Native Trainer
If you’re going to download any mods, download this first. Script Hook V makes the game’s scripts available to others, and so is a requirement for some GTA V mods (often, they’ll bundle the scripthook .dll just to be sure). This mod also gives you access to a feature-rich trainer that can turn you into a virtual god.
Complex Control
Grand Theft Auto V might be the most successful video game of all time, but Epic Games’ Fortnite is the biggest game in the world at the moment, so it only makes sense to combine the two! The Complex Control mod is a single-player “royale-lite” that spawns your character in a random location on the game’s enormous map, and you win if you’re able to stay in the last designated zone for four seconds. Though you won’t be able to play an actual battle royale match against other people, the proof-of-concept offered in Complex Control has us hoping for a full-on battle royale mode in the next Grand Theft Auto game.
Euphoria Ragdoll Overhaul
Sometimes, you don’t need a fancy armor suit or a new mission to get the most out of Grand Theft Auto V. With the Euphoria Ragdoll Overhaul mod, the ragdoll physics in the game are improved significantly, with characters behaving more realistically after they’re damaged and before collapsing to the ground. Headshots will instantly send a person to the ground as a ragdoll, and civilians will react to nearby explosions by covering their heads.
Super Mario Plumbers
“It’s a-me, get out of the car before I shoot you!” No one should be surprised that Mario and his pals made their way into Grand Theft Auto V, but we’re still impressed by what Super Mario Plumbers offers. Complete with classic Super Mario Bros. sound effects, you’re free to explore Los Santos as the classic mustachioed plumber, beat up random pedestrians, speed along the streets, and get into far more trouble than the Mushroom Kingdom would ever allow. If you get sick of Mario, the mod also includes other favorites like Luigi, Wario, and — of course — Waluigi.
Iron Man Mark 50
If the rocket launchers, planes, and explosives already available in Grand Theft Auto V aren’t enough for you, consider installing Iron Man Mark 50. Based on the suit Tony Stark wears in Avengers: Infinity War, it includes enormous wings on the back and transforms you into a walking weapon, capable of hovering in the air while you blast away at oncoming traffic with missiles. We’re not sure if you’ll survive the wrath of Thanos if you happen to run into him on the streets of Los Santos, but you’ll be able to cause quite a bit of chaos beforehand.
Psychokinetic
Ever since the film Chronicle released, we’ve wanted to control objects with our minds, and the Psychokinectic mod turns you into a terrifying being with telekinetic abilities. With the mod installed, you’re free to float throughout the city, pick up dozens of cars or people, and send them flying without worrying about whether or not anyone survives or explodes. Dropping trucks into crowded parking lots can result in some huge explosions, and if you run out of vehicles to throw, you can just send fireballs hurling down at your “enemies” instead.
Marlowe Valley Safehouse
The Marlowe Valley Safehouse mod turns Marlowe Valley into a luxurious safehouse that also happens to have an airport and adjacent runway. With garages — including a tuning garage — and parking spaces to store more than 50 cars, Marlowe Valley becomes a hideout fit for a high roller. There’s even a military bunker, apartment, and a garden area designed for festivities. You’ll need the Menyoo mod to make it work.
Liberty City
The Liberty City mod turns the world of GTA V into GTA IV, resetting the game map as Grand Theft Auto IV’s Liberty City. The mod is currently in Alpha and thus has some kinks that need to be worked out. It’s an interesting experiment that is certainly worth checking out for those interested in returning to the iconic Liberty City. There’s also a different Liberty City mod on the horizon to look out for.
World Improvement
GTA V already looks phenomenal, and even functions as somewhat of a moving portrait when you aren’t around, but World Improvement mod boosts the realism. It focuses on small details, like additional trees in places like Rockford Hills. It also adds new characters, and AI routines, such as police searches through Paleto Forest and car crashes around Los Santos. The best part about this mod? It receives new updates to introduce tiny — but profound — details regularly, so Los Santos will evolve, just like a real city would.
Superhot
The Superhot mod transplants Superhot’s innovative time-stopping mechanics into GTA V. When you stop moving, time stands still. While it seems like an odd choice for an open-world game like GTA V, the Superhot mod feels right at home when in close quarters combat. When back in the long game, you can toggle the mod off with the press of a button and resume normal play.
GTA RPG
GTA V has a rich, open-world narrative, but it remains relatively linear throughout. The GTA V RPG mod adds a non-linear story and skill progression system that makes it feel closer to Fallout than Grand Theft Auto. For starters, you can choose between three character classes. As you progress through missions using the mod’s quest system, you use skill trees to upgrade your character and weapons. There are even dialogue trees with NPCs, and randomly-generated loot and items.
The Red House
If you find that replaying single player missions is growing stale, The Red House mod features an abundance of new content to stave off boredom. The mod adds more than 20 missions to the game, including a new heist. Some missions even include NPC bodyguards that assist you in your endeavors. An update, called the “Blue House,” added a set of stealth-oriented missions to the mod. All in all, the mission variety is solid and well worth your time.
Open All Interiors
Are you tired of not being able to enter the Sandy Shores sheriff department or any other locked building? The Open All Interiors mod gives you a full range of access to those previously off-limits places. What’s most remarkable part is that the mod repopulates all these spaces, even the ones which were removed before launch and never meant to be seen.
Map Editor
Your wish is your command with this GTA Vmap editor. With the use of a free-roaming cam, you can easily place cars, ramps, and even animals throughout Los Santos, then hop in and play with your experiments. It’s a robust tool with a myriad of options, but best of all, it’s intuitive and simple to use.
Endeavor Menu
The Endeavor mod gives you a well-designed debug menu, with the power to summon any asset from the game whenever you want, turning Los Santos into your personal playground. Toggle it on and you can easily make any vehicle, gun, or item materialize in front of your eyes. You can also elevate your character to max stats, and remove police officers from the game. There are some zany aspects of it, too, like granting you the ability to drive across water, or the power to shoot bags of cash from your gun.
Pedestrian Riot
GTA: San Andreas had a cheat that made pedestrians go bonkers. It was hilarious to watch. Predictably, an intrepid modder has gone out of his way to re-create that experience as Pedestrian Riot. With the flip of a switch you can send everyone into insanity, creating chaos wherever you go. The mod gives them weapons, too, so be careful!
Field-of-view mod
For the first time ever in the series, GTA V offers a first-person mode. Far from a tack-on, Rockstar put a lot of effort into making it work just like a real first-person shooter. One thing they missed, though, is dynamic field-of-view adjustment. The default FOV is a bit narrow, which makes some players feel claustrophobic, and others motion sick. With this field-of-view mod, you can change the FOV to whatever setting is comfortable for you.
Bodyguard Menu
Why go it alone, when you can have a team backing you up? This bodyguard mod can spawn a variety of NPCs who will follow you around and assist you in whatever you’re doing. You can command them to do your bidding, or just stand around in formation looking tough. Up to seven bodyguards will follow you, but you can still spawn more after that. Creating an army just after you rouse up a 4-star police rating can be a literal riot.
Police Mod
Why does Grand Theft Auto assume you want to be a criminal? With this police mod, you can act as the long arm of the law. It lets you skin yourself as a cop, spawn a partner, choose a police vehicle, and listen to a police scanner. You can’t pull over vehicles or go on missions just yet. Hopefully, that will be possible in future versions.
Heist Vehicles Spawn Naturally
Heists are a popular feature in GTA V’s online mode. Many of them include unique vehicles. But what if you’re not interested in online play, and still want to use the vehicles? The Heist Vehicles Spawn Naturally mod lets you do just that. It doesn’t just give them to you off the bat, though; they spawn in certain areas for you to discover. Or if you just want to jump in, you can view the modder’s list of locations.
