Is it safe to update Grand Theft Auto V Legacy?
SafeGG — update away.
The original 2015 PC edition (Steam: Grand Theft Auto V Legacy, GTA5.exe, current builds 1.0.3xxx). Every Legacy title update breaks Script Hook V, and every .asi script that depends on it, until Alexander Blade ships a build for the new executable.
⚠ Single-player only. Never use mods in GTA Online: Script Hook V closes the game when you go online, and modding Online risks a permanent ban.

Script Hook V + Native Trainer
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.exe. It closes the game if you go into GTA Online.
No requirements listed by the author
Tracked framework: Safe for the latest patch.
2
OpenIV
Tools
Archive editor and mod installer for Legacy. Its OpenIV.asi lets replacement mods load from a separate mods folder.
Use Tools › ASI Manager to install OpenIV.ASI, and only edit files inside the mods folder, never the originals.

Framework
Runs .NET (C#) scripts from the scripts folder. Most Legacy C# mods target it.
Install Microsoft .NET Framework 4.8 and the Visual C++ redistributable first, as its page explains.

GTA V Legacy modding FAQ
Is it safe to update Grand Theft Auto V Legacy with mods?
Current verdict: Safe. Every patch-sensitive framework has explicit support for Build 1.0.3889.0. Latest patch tracked: Build 1.0.3889.0 (2026-07-14).
Why do Grand Theft Auto V Legacy mods break after a patch?
The original 2015 PC edition (Steam: Grand Theft Auto V Legacy, GTA5.exe, current builds 1.0.3xxx). Every Legacy title update breaks Script Hook V, and every .asi script that depends on it, until Alexander Blade ships a build for the new executable.
Which Grand Theft Auto V Legacy frameworks does ModSafe track?
Checked by hand: Script Hook V. Automatically: Ultimate ASI Loader.
What do the status labels mean?
- Safe
- A release explicitly supports the current patch (release notes, the maintainer's official page, or a stable build for that version).
- Likely safe
- Released after the patch without naming it, or the patch is over a week old with no breakage reports.
- Just patched, wait
- The patch is under 7 days old and the framework hasn't updated yet.
- Breakage reported
- Open issues on the project's tracker say it broke after the patch.
- Not ported yet
- No build exists for the current game version yet (Minecraft loaders, Script Hook V).
- Not affected by patches
- Version-agnostic tools (mod managers, generic loaders). Not counted in the verdict.
- Check manually
- Tools without a public release feed (e.g. Nexus-only). Not counted in the verdict.
Where does the data come from?
Game patches come from a hand-maintained record checked by ModSafe (Rockstar title update notes and the Script Hook V page), cross-checked against this edition's Steam public build (api.steamcmd.net). Framework data comes from a hand-checked Script Hook V record and GitHub releases. ModSafe does not scrape Nexus Mods or SteamDB.
Can I use mods in GTA Online?
No. Only mod single-player (Story Mode). Script Hook V closes the game if you go online, and modding GTA Online risks a permanent ban. Keep a clean install or remove mods before playing Online.
Is this page for GTA V Legacy or Enhanced?
Grand Theft Auto V Legacy only (Steam app 271590, GTA5.exe). Rockstar patches the PC editions separately and Script Hook V can support one before the other, so each has its own verdict. Grand Theft Auto V Enhanced (Steam app 3240220, GTA5_Enhanced.exe) is tracked at https://modsafe.app/gta-v-enhanced/. Not sure which you have? See https://modsafe.app/gta-v/.
Where do the GTA V Legacy patch history dates come from?
From a hand-kept table of each PC build's release date and the date Script Hook V first listed it, cross-checked against the lspdfrinfo wiki's GTA V build list. The sources give dates only, so update times are whole days.
How do I stop Steam from auto-updating Grand Theft Auto V Legacy?
Steam has no 'never update' option. In your Library, open Grand Theft Auto V Legacy > Manage > Properties > Updates and set Automatic updates to 'Wait until I launch the game', then launch through your mod loader or play in Offline Mode. Steam has no previous-version branch for Grand Theft Auto V Legacy (checked Oct 26, 2026), so back up the game folder before patches; rolling back otherwise means the Steam console's download_depot command.
