📋 About This Mod

Note: This was never meant for public use since it's a horrible hack but due to high demand I've decided to upload it so I don't get asked for it all the time. About This ASI plugin doubles the amount of packfiles (aka RPFs) the game can handle. Please note that this plugin will only 'fix' ERR_FIL_PACK_1, nothing else. Get a better gameconfig and install the Heap Limit Adjuster if you still experience crashes. Also, please make sure to combine your DLC packs. Not doing so is the most common reason for ERR_FIL_PACK_1. Requirements .asi loader Installation Simply drop PackfileLimitAdjuster.asi and PackfileLimitAdjuster.ini into your Grand Theft Auto V folder. Changelog 1. 2 Added support for build 2699; please note that I haven't really used this plugin in a few years, meaning this update has had very minimal testing 1. 1 Added a settings file Fixed an issue that caused the plugin to stop working correctly on newer game builds 1. 0 Initial release

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • 5.8 million downloads and 3,845 endorsements—this thing is battle-tested.
  • Directly fixes ERR_FIL_P, so you can stack more mods without crashes.
  • Tiny ASI plugin—no bloat, just drop it in and forget it.

⚠️ Cons

  • Author calls it a 'horrible hack'—expect rough edges under the hood.
  • Last updated in 2022—might not play nice with newer game patches.
  • Only doubles the limit, so if you're running 200+ RPFs you might still hit the ceiling.
🎯 Is This For You?
If you're a mod hoarder who's hit the packfile limit and seen ERR_FIL_P, this is your fix. Also great for modders testing large mod packs. Casual players with a few mods probably won't need it.
📦 Install:Easy· Under 1 minute

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure you have an ASI loader installed (like OpenIV's ASI loader) or the plugin won't activate.
  • If you're still getting ERR_FIL_P after installing, double-check that the .asi file is in the game's root folder, not a subfolder.
  • This doesn't increase performance—it only raises the file limit, so don't expect FPS gains.
