| Description | Adding options in the [Copy to 'mods' folder] drop down menu also for 'x64' and 'update' folders. Adding this option will allow you to create copies of original files faster in these locations and to securely edit them later. Sometimes, when you install the .OIV modification, you do not get all copies of files and folders. When later we want to use or edit a new file or folder by modification, we need to manually create new folders and the location and send the original files for editing. If it will be available and will work as you have with archives like x64a.rpf etc. it will help / speed up and simplify a lot. | ||||

The latest version of OpenIV and OpenIV.ASI provide support for “mods” folder that can be very useful in the following cases:
Guys I made a Simple OpenIV tutorial for those eho still confuse while modding the game:)http://openiv.com/.
- You have DVD or Rockstar Games Warehouse version of GTA V and every time you edit files Launcher download original files back;
- You want to have original GTA V files unmodified;
- You want to have fast way to switch between original and modified files.
Required software:
If you have OpenIV.ASI installed and 'mods' folder created in context menu you will see 'Copy to 'mods' folder' or 'Show in 'mods' folder' actions: This feature will copy all needed files and archives. Edited November 24, 2016 by GooD-NTS Create an account or sign in to comment. Launch OpenIV, Go To update, then update.rpf, then x64, then textures, then script txds.rpf and copy to mods folder Step 7: Once copied to the mods folder open the same location from within the mods folder. While in Edit Mode drag the BTLS Textures.ytd file from the textures folder into the main window of OpenIV, adding it to the bottom of the list. Start a new folder called mods and then copy the update and x64 folders from your GTA V directory and paste them inside your new mods folder.

- OpenIV (2.6.3 or newer)
- OpenIV.ASI (1.1 or newer)
- GTA V ASI LOADER (build “May 2 2015” or newer)
Instruction:
1 – Download and install OpenIV. Configure it to work with your copy of GTAV.
2 – Navigate to ASI Manager using menu “Tools” > “ASI Manager” or “ASI Manager” button on tool bar.
Through ASI Manager, you can install, update or remove ASI Loader and
OpenIV ASI plugins.3 – Install ASI Loader and OpenIV.ASI
4 – Open your GTA V folder in File Explorer; you can do it fast in OpenIV
5 – In root of your GTA V folder create new folder and name if “mods” (lower case)6 – Now you have to copy RPF archives into “mods” folder. For example, if you want to modify “Grand Theft Auto Vupdateupdate.rpf” you need to copy it like “Grand Theft Auto Vmodsupdateupdate.rpf”.
The following table is explain how you need to copy archives to mods folder. The path to RPF archive in “mods” folder must be the same as in real GTA Vfolder, here is some examples:
| Grand Theft Auto V – Original archive path | Path in “mods” folder |
|---|---|
| GTAVupdateupdate.rpf | GTAVmodsupdateupdate.rpf |
| GTAVcommon.rpf | GTAVmodscommon.rpf |
| GTAVx64audiosfxSCRIPT.rpf | GTAVmodsx64audiosfxSCRIPT.rpf |
| GTAVupdatex64dlcpacksmpheistdlc.rpf | GTAVmodsupdatex64dlcpacksmpheistdlc.rpf |
| GTAVx64e.rpf | GTAVmodsx64e.rpf |
7 – From this point if you want to install mod or edit some file you need to do it in archive from “mods” folder.
Openiv Copy To Mods Folder Windows 10
Now all your mods will be in separated folder, and original files will stay not modified.
If you want to switch back to original files just go to ASI Manager and remove OpenIV.ASI. In addition, you can remove ASI Loader to disable all ASI plugins that you have installed.
You can use ASI Manager any time to switch between mods and original game. You no need to remove “mods” folder every time.
