📋 About This Mod
I was getting annoyed with corpses disappearing so quickly, so I made this little script. There is also a config you can play around with. Hopefully there are no bugs, but if you do find any, please report them and I'll take a look.
Requirements:
1. Script Hook V (https://www.dev-c.com/gtav/scripthookv/)
2. Community Script Hook V . NET (https://www.gta5-mods.com/tools/scripthookv-net)
Installation:
1. Simply extract the contents of the archive to the 'scripts' folder where GTA V is installed
Thanks to the authors of Script Hook V and Community Script Hook V . NET
