Dear Users, More than a decade ago we started down a path that took us to places that we did not know existed. It's been a great.
By Shawn SarisWith the upcoming release of Grand Theft Auto V on PC, we decided to take a look back at some of the crazier mods we could find for GTA IV. Each one we found alters the game in fun, strange, and sometimes destructive ways, allowing players to make their Liberty City experience a unique one.
Thankfully, installing all of these mods is an easy process. The first step will be getting OpenIV, a multipurpose tool that allows you to edit files and install script hooks. The next step will be getting the mods of your choice. Before you go and install them though, you may need to download a ScriptHook. These act as middlemen between certain mods and the base game. Each time you copy files into the scripts folder of GTAIV, you will then need to use the Open Package Installer within the OpenIV program to load the appropriate ScriptHook, which will activate the mod.
Do keep in mind that not all mods involve ScriptHooks, so if you are having trouble, check any ReadMe files that may have come with the mod you're installing. You can often find instructions on the same page you downloaded the mod from too.
Once it's all said and done, you'll load into your game with all manner of strange and wacky mods running. Remember that modding always comes with the risk of crashing a game or making it unplayable, so please make sure to back up all your files before making major changes.
