📋 About This Mod

OpenRPF is an alternative to OpenIV.asi , which is now obsolete with GTA V's Enhanced version. It works in the same way, allowing modified files to be loaded from a mods folder, thus avoiding the need to modify the game's original files. Features: • OPEN & encrypted compatibility: OpenRPF supports both the game's native archives and those created with OpenIV ( OPEN ). No need to re-encrypt your modified files. • rpf.cache bypass on Gen9: OpenRPF bypasses the rpf.cache for modified files placed in the mods folder, allowing them to load without additional intervention. • Integrated ASI Loader: Just like OpenIV provided dinput8.dll , OpenRPF includes dsound.dll to enable ASI plugin loading in GTA V Enhanced ( as well as loading OpenRPF.asi ). • Performance optimization: OpenIV.asi could cause slowdowns due to inefficient file loading management. OpenRPF fixes this issue for a smoother gaming experience. Installation: 1. Extract the archive contents into the GTA V Enhanced directory (where GTA5_Enhanced.exe is located). 2. Create a mods folder. 3. Place your modified RPF archives inside this folder, just like with OpenIV.asi. 4. Launch the game and enjoy your mods on the Enhanced version of GTA V. Warnings: • The mod does not change file versions: Gen8 ( GTA V Legacy ) files on Gen9 ( GTA V Enhanced ) will cause a crash if used. Ensure you use GTA V Enhanced compatible files or convert them using Dexyfex's tool in CodeWalker . • Some resources are not yet perfectly converted by CodeWalker: which may cause crashes or visual anomalies. If you encounter issues, feel free to report them on the CodeWalker Discord . Changelog: 0. 1: Initial release 0. 2: Various fixes, deleting the dsound.dll, and default implementation of the cache bypass ( no need for rpf.cache.disable anymore ) 0. 3: Compatibility update for versions 1013. 17+ ( GTA Online “A Safehouse in the Hills” update ) Credits: Transmet: OpenRPF.asi - reverse engineering & development GiZz: dsound.dll - reverse engineering & development Antasurris: everything else, coffees and tests
