How to install GTA VI mods (when the vault opens)

There is nothing to install yet — but here is exactly how installation will work once the vault has real, checked listings, so you are ready on day one.

This guide describes the process the vault will use once it opens with real listings — it is a preview of the workflow, not an installation guide for anything that exists today.

Every listing will ship with a stated version, a compatibility line and a requirements list — framework, dependencies and disk space — before you ever click download. If a listing does not have all three, it does not go up.

The installation flow itself will follow the same shape as any well-run FiveM server: back up your existing files, drop the new resource into its own isolated folder, read the changelog for anything that touches shared systems, then test on a local or staging instance before it ever touches a live server with players on it.

One rule will not change: never install a mod from a source outside the vault claiming to be an "early" or "leaked" version of a vault listing. Nothing here gets released early, and anything claiming to be a leak of an unfinished concept is, at best, not what it says it is.

Until then, the best preparation is the getting-started guide — the tooling and habits that carry over regardless of what the final installer looks like.
