AliV Install Tutorial (or any .
OIV mods)
1. Download and install OpenIV from:
https://gta5mod.net/download-mod/121807
2. Open OpenIV, select GTA 5 on Windows, then press on Edit Mode
in the top right corner of OpenIV to toggle it.
3. After enabling Edit Mode, it will show you „ASI Manager“ in Blue.
Press it and install OpenIV.ASI
4. Now you can open the downloaded mod and just drag the .OIV file
inside of the OpenIV window. It will then ask you to install in mods
or in game folder. Always install in Mods folder.
5. Drag all the files from „Drop in GTA Folder“ Folder inside the GTA
root folder (where gta5.exe and playgtav.exe are located). You can
just drag them in the main overview window of OpenIV 1.
6. Now you can also install any optional mods that come with your mod.
The procedure is the same as with the main mod. Just drag in the
.OIV file into OpenIV and install it in mods folder.
7. Before starting your game make sure to go into your GTA Folder and
rightclick on both GTA 5.exe and PlayGTAV.exe, select properties,
then in compatibility tab select use windows 7 compatibility mode
and confirm with „Ok“ (Do that for both .EXEs).
8. You can now launch the game and everything should work if you
followed instructions.

OpenIV essentially works like your file explorer, but it understands GTA file structures.
