(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); As we all know, the Scripthook is being updated by Alexander Blade but due to a recent update, it was set back.

Now, according to the same author, after patch 3.50.1 - ANY and ALL mods in the install folder are being reported to Rockstar directly when you access online. According to many Reddit threads, there is also meant to be a "Mass Cheater Banwave" happening at the moment

Due to this, the new Scripthook will not allow you to connect to Online at all if the scripthook remains in the install folder. There is a Bat-Script available which renames it however, so that you can go Online but cannot use it.

I have a feeling many will scoff and blow this off but coming from the guy behind the Scripthook so many love (and abused) - it's worth listening to.

So due to the influx in cheater reports (You know who you are. Don't be so surprised if you get a ban of some form) because of mod menus online - we can no longer use legit mods like the FOV changer online.

This is why we cannot have nice things.

Funny you should post this as ive just been banned, just had to use the CID of one of my dex consoles

This is a new PC feature, but past rumours did mention the same system reporting console mods to R* as well. Wouldn't be surprised if they've implemented it globally across all platforms.

Wouldnt surpise me knowing R*

There banning accounts now.

Last time I checked my history books, they started doing that in November 2013 onwards. Console bans were added in 1.09 (PS3 and Xbox 360) and prior to the update Rockstar Games could only ban the account but the console could still connect if running from another PSN account. Now the console ID is blacklisted on the Kerberos SCS authentication system.

Speaking of which, didn't the "author" say that they started doing that back two updates ago? I've not found sufficient evidence that there are instructions in the game to send a POST request to Rockstar Games requesting file attributes. In addition, I know they send a CRC during launch but the computer doesn't send a response back. For now, it is the transaction system that catches the GTA$ cheats out and people who record and report who get the mod menu holders banned, in addition to native CSD's. He says that is the case and has done so since his previous versions were cracked for Online bypassing. Its merely to try and prevent people from bypassing his future script hooks for online. And if I'm wrong, which I may well be, they must've really hid that new mechanism well .

This thread is right: THEY GET ALL MODDERS ON PC, AND IT HAPPENS QUITE QUICK - USE MODS ONLY OFFLINE OR U WILL REGRET PLAYING ONLINE WITH MODS. LET THE FOLDER ALWAYS FREE OF STUFF THAT CHANGES THE GAME. I CHECKED IT OUT WITH DIFFERENT ACCOUNTS. ONE POSITIVE ASPECT IS THAT U CAN USE AN EXTERNAL TRAINER , THAT CHANGES THE GAME MEM ISN´T DETECTED AS LONG AS THE PC VERSION IS IN USE !!!

The best mod would be an external software, that takes influence on the data without resisting in the game-folder, but nobody took care of that idea since A. Blades "scripthookv" came out....
Have a nice "anti-ban-online-free-of-mod-gameplay" -cheers!
My TIPP: Mod-offline-only !!!

PS: -R*ckstar has hands on the fully files-sections that are interesting for modding so far, means if u "only change" ... "colours of your t-shirts" (data-files are changed to different sizes or if u exchange data), the game doesn´t start up any more until u get back to original files (some little stuff u can change - but for online u need the openv.asi in the game folder, that quickly is detected for kicking u for a "ban" (and that happens soon before x-mas-lol) - whohoo !!
-"some files" u can change (i.e. the so beloved "handling data-files") but u will be "knocked off" joining online-lobbies with others !!
