'''Notes'''
 
{{--}} The game requires {{code|OpenIV.asi}} to allow loading of non-signed RPF files (signature is removed when editing them). Since asi mods require asi loader, it is detected by anti-cheat immediately, do not use this with GTA Online.{{cn|.asi mods disable automatically when going online afaik}}
 
{{ii}} Modding the archives outside mods folder, will force the user to use OpenIV.asi all the time to run the game.

{{ii}} The QuantV has a cooler color theme versus the NVE. If you are looking forward to a more realistic look without all the extra effects this might be the right choice for you. By installing shaders on your game you’ll get much better visuals while maintaining a decent fps because QuantV doesn’t modify too many extra things like the NVE.<ref>https://www.patreon.com/QuantV</ref>
