GTA V (Legacy 1.0.3717.0 & Enhanced 1.0.1013.17) update notes

Hi everybody!

Rockstar Games released an update for Legacy (1.0.3717.0) and Enhanced (1.0.1013.17). Yesterday, Script Hook V has been updated to support these versions.

Update (2026-01-03)

Happy new year!

During the festivities, alloc8or released DirectStorageFix. This keeps DirectStorage enabled but doesn't touch other mod files.

This should resolve the storage-related issues without performance drawbacks.

Update (2025-12-16)

Workaround found for Enhanced to disable DirectStorage:

• Create commandline.txt in the game folder

• Add "-forcewin32" in the file

Scripts relying on writes in the game folder should work again.

While my vehicle scripts should keep functioning as intended, you may run into issues with storage on GTA V Enhanced. GTA V Legacy is unaffected. Specifically, scripts cannot write anywhere in the game folder while the game is running. This breaks saving preferences or even simply toggling a persistent setting. This is caused by something changing in the DirectStorage feature present for Enhanced.

Manual Transmission has support for using an alternative folder: "%localappdata%\ikt\ManualTransmission". (See also readme). To use this:

1. Enter "%localappdata%" (without the quotes) in your Explorer address bar. Explorer will now navigate to "C:\Users\<Your Username>\AppData\Local"

2. Create a new folder "ikt" if it doesn't already exist.

3. Copy the full "ManualTransmission" folder and paste it into the "ikt" folder.

4. The script should now run from this local appdata folder.

Beware that if you use this, all instances of Manual Transmission will run from that folder, so everything from Legacy, Enhanced to FiveM will use this folder.

Some other scripts of mine also use this method (Adaptive Headlights and Dynamic Vehicle First Person). Other scripts will run into issues with Enhanced if they load and save files.

Look out for developers to create a generic workaround for DirectStorage. In the meantime, the localappdata storage feature can be used to work around this issue on the latest version of Enhanced for Manual Transmission.

Minor status update

In the past months I've been busy working on the house and moving, and have not had much time to work on scripts. I'm nearing completion (functional basics) and have set up my workspace again. (The sim rig is still in pieces, waiting for some house plumbing to be fixed before I can finally rebuild my rig...), so I can jump into action again pretty soon!

The last Patreon-supported script left to be ported to Enhanced was TurboFix, and I'm resuming work on that. Specifically re-doing the configuration management, which was a pain to actually use to play with turbo settings.

For updates going forward, for scripts that write to the game folder, I will also add support for the alternative storage location. This will also apply to scripts I release/update outside of Patreon.

Thank you for your patience and support!
