Popular Story Mode mods for GTA V Enhanced (GTA5_Enhanced.exe). Legacy mods don't automatically work here: use builds marked Enhanced. Script Hook V comes first, and every mod that needs it waits for a Script Hook V update after each patch. Story Mode only: never launch GTA Online with mods installed.
Hand-picked by ModSafe, listed in install order. We link only to the official download pages and never host files. Badges reflect our live framework status for Build 1.0.1158.16. List verified 2026-10-29.
📘 How to install mods Recommended manager: OpenRPF (mods folder) + manual ASI/script install ↗
Framework
Alexander Blade's script loader. Nearly every script and trainer needs it, and each game patch breaks it until it's updated.
Copy ScriptHookV.dll and the bundled ASI loader (dinput8.dll) next to GTA5_Enhanced.exe. It closes the game if you go into GTA Online.

Tools
Enhanced's equivalent of OpenIV.asi: loads replacement and add-on files from a separate mods folder.
OpenIV itself doesn't support Enhanced. Keep edits in the mods folder so a Steam verify restores the originals.
