Have FiveM Lua experience/knowledge that you would like to take/bring into normal GTA?
Interested in having the ability to interface various in-game things to various external/out of game things (say trigger an action on/in an external unrelated program or create your own Discord rich presence with an external utility for example, maybe even create yourself a remote game interaction api) with ease?
Well, recently I've somewhat departed from FiveM (with 3+ years of experience) and thought it would be cool to port over some of my scripts to singleplayer, finding headscript's/gallexme's Lua Plugin for Script Hook V in the process, which just simply didn't suit my needs nor meet my expectations (especially in regards to performance), and it has pretty much been abandoned for years now, so I've decided to adopt it as my own and dramatically/drastically improve my fork of it far beyond what anyone could've ever imagined being possible with this, and I plan on introducing new performance/optimization features/techniques over time and releasing updates somewhat frequently.
Mod description: Write/Use custom Lua scripts for GTA V
Why Lua?
- Lua is a lightweight scripting language that tends to be beginner-friendly, but powerful in the hands of an advanced user at the same time. Although Lua might not have the same popularity as that of other scripting languages such as C# or C++ (.NET), Lua's expandability makes it equally as capable as the others, while remaining easy-to-use and often more resource efficient.
Summary of installation instructions: https://github.com/JayMontana36/LuaPlugin-GTAV/wiki/Overview#installation-guide
Bugs and features:
1: Bug - Lua Plugin itself **cannot** be reloaded, but Lua scripts *can* be reloaded.
2: Feature - Introduced FiveM style Lua game native function calls (alongside the older/legacy game native function calls for compatibility with older/existing Lua Plugin scripts)
3: Feature - An external Lua script(s) directory which is reminiscent of a typical Lua working directory that you can place anywhere.
4: Feature - Lua script reloading script for developers with DebugMode variable set true.
5: Feature - Maintain compatibility with older/existing Lua Plugin scripts.
6: Feature - Universal timer and variables containing relevant player information to avoid having to (excessively) use certain/common game native calls across numerous scripts (and avoid wasting resources by doing so).
7: Feature - Universal built in native config file reader/writer functions for data storage/retention/persistence
8: Feature - Included examples and documentation via GitHub wiki
Credits and, if applicable, notices of permission for content re-use:
1: Credits | JayMontana36 - This version/fork of Lua Plugin with completely homemade/rewritten externals (currently ALL of the included Lua scripts with the exception of "GUI.lua" were all written/original content by me)
2: Credits | headscript/gallexme - The original author of Lua Plugin who's ASI files are currently still used in this project/fork due to my lack of knowledge to create my own.
3: Notice of permission for content re-use - https://github.com/gallexme/ScriptHook-Lua-Plugin/blob/master/README.md - Applies to the ASI files and the "GUI.lua" file used in this project/fork; for everything else, http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0
Changelog:
- ** JM36-v5.3-Stable ** -
1: Fix issues with some scripts which fail to function correctly or at all prior to a (forced) script reload (or in the case of non-technical users or non-developers, did not work at all).
2: Add a built in automatic migrator from/for old/legacy LuaPlugin to JM36 LuaPlugin.
- ** JM36-v5.2-Stable ** -
1: Compatibility fixes for supporting more legacy `Lua Plugin` scripts.
- ** JM36-v5.1-Stable ** -
1: Fixed inconsistencies with the "_0x" game native function calls to make it even easier to work with them in a more consistent manner.
- ** JM36-v5.0-Stable ** -
1: Skipped a version (v4.0); v4.0 was unofficially released as a private "beta".
2: Fixed typo in "Info.Player.Vehicle.Name" that prevented the vehicle's name from coming back correctly as anything.
3: Add new "Handle" variable to "Info.Player" and "Info.Player.Vehicle".
4: Make it easier to call "0x" hexadecimal game native functions by prefixing them with an underscore ("_") like FiveM does.
5: Several optimizations to the internal "_init" function and the FiveM style game native function call function generator.
6: Remove/Replace an unnecessary internal function for accessing "secondary" globals, making it a more direct access while keeping transparency.
7: Renamed a few included scripts primarily for better/optimal DebugMode operation.
8: Optimized DebugMode tick/loop further.
9: Attempt to simplify installation for new and/or basic users by defaulting ScriptsDir-Lua into GameDir-GTAV scripts dir.
10: Removed "All Lua Scripts Loaded Without Error" message; you will now only ever see errors (and script prints) printed in console (with developer asi).
11: Overall code cleanup and optimization.
12: Add/Include version information within secondary global which can be used by scripts to require a certain minimum version of this plugin and/or change behaviors depending upon the version (such as error for incorrect version or so).
- ** JM36-v3.0-Stable ** -
1: Fixed FiveM style game native function calls randomly (not) working (hopefully) once and for all and removed the excess code/checks related to this issue/bug
2: Fixed "Info.Player.Vehicle.IsOp" variable not updating whenever the player becomes the vehicle operator or a vehicle passenger
3: Implemented feature number 7 from above (config file read/write)
4: Updated the included example scripts
- ** JM36-v2.0-Stable ** -
1: Implemented feature number 6 from above
2: Implemented a check and a fix for the commonly left out "\\" ending in the "Scripts_Path" string variable (which whenever absent in the previous release/version would have caused things to completely break and fail to function).
3: Implemented a new "Info" variable which is exposed directly to your loop functions, containing plenty of useful player (and vehicle) information as well as the time which is mostly useful for wait(ing) or for delayed execution or for special script loop run timings; more Information and usage examples regarding the new "Info" variable can be found on the wiki - https://github.com/JayMontana36/LuaPlugin-GTAV/wiki/The-Basics---Getting-Started---Scripting-Examples#the-info-variable-1st-argument-sent-to-loop-functions-and-game-native-function-call-examples
4: gta5-mods specific release version - include the above wiki page (The Basics - Getting Started - Scripting Examples) as well as the "Overview" wiki page as htm/html files as a simple and effective way to "include documentation" just in case developers don't go to the GitHub for the documentation or don't know that the GitHub with the documentation exists (being that the other Lua Plugin completely lacks any documentation whatsoever in general, which is not the case here with my version).

Thank you for reloading the Lua plugin.
I can put my Lua knowledge to work now27 Mayıs 2021, Perşembe -
@THEFalkone It's on GitHub. Have a look https://github.com/JayMontana36/LuaPlugin-GTAV/wiki/Overview#installation-guide
27 Mayıs 2021, Perşembe -
So does this mod allow me to use any fivem lua scripts in GTA singleplayer?
4 Haziran 2021, Cuma -
my game isnt loading the asi files anybody know wat could be blocking it or how to fix

Hi @JayMontana36, my knowledge of lua is very limited & I know you get loads of people asking for help but I'm wondering if you could guide me on how to try and port a 5M license plate script over to SP? I previously used a simple C++ / ASI script but it's not as advanced as the 5M one
22 Temmuz 2021, Perşembe -
I'm guessing I need to find the game native function for SetVehicleNumberPlateText? Is this right?
22 Temmuz 2021, Perşembe -
When can we see the wiki bro? I coded on FiveM ago. And I like FiveM-style native function. So I'm happy to see your wonderful lua-plug-in
28 Temmuz 2021, Çarşamba -
since I changed windows from 8.1 to 10 most mods don't work HELP !!!
31 Temmuz 2021, Cumartesi -
@THEFalkone if you were to have checked the right side of the GitHub wiki where it says "Pages" with a decent number/list of available wiki pages, you'd have found it; apologies though since the wiki structure has changed since this was first/originally posted onto 5mods.
5 Ağustos 2021, Perşembe -
@JohnMcClane You cannot simply drag and drop FiveM Lua scripts and expect them to just work, however you can very easily port them if you know how, requiring very little changes (typically) to convert or port. If you know scripting in FiveM and/or wish to create scripts that work both in singleplayer and FIveM, this makes that easier as well if you write portable/modular code that can easily be copied and pasted between this format and FiveM's format.
5 Ağustos 2021, Perşembe -
@cam230645 You need an ASI loader and ensure that the ASI loader sees the ASI file(s) you want to load.
5 Ağustos 2021, Perşembe -
@jcshy I may be able to help, yes, if I could see the script/code you are working with and/or get more details about it; there is a list of game native functions on the wiki, as well as scripting examples showcasing how it's done.
5 Ağustos 2021, Perşembe -
@Ozasadge-Tim The wiki has been publicly available and visible to everyone if you took the time to observe the GitHub sidebar on the right side named "Pages" which contains a number/list of good/decent information and documentation (and examples). I noticed you on the 5mods Discord the other day using the old/outdated version of Lua Plugin, I cannot talk there because of the server's settings and Discord's stupidity, also couldn't message you because of your settings and you never accepted the friend request that I sent you either to try to help/explain some things.
5 Ağustos 2021, Perşembe -
@m1983j You don't state which/any mods don't work nor anything that you tried, and "mods" is such a wide range that I feel it more than likely is completely unrelated to this mod in particular especially due to how unknown and unnoticed it is when compared to the others.
5 Ağustos 2021, Perşembe -
@JayMontana36 I had customized fashion for the version of the game and after changing Windows from 8.1 to 10 half of the mods do not work I tried every scripthook
7 Ağustos 2021, Cumartesi -
@m1983j I have no idea what that is but seems more or less to me that you just need to redo all of the things that you've already done before to get the mods in the first place; do them all over again and they should work. For a fact, "customized fashion" definitely has nothing at all whatsoever to do with (and is completely/entirely unrelated to) "JM36 Lua Plugin".
9 Ağustos 2021, Pazartesi -
@JayMontana36 after changing windows, most mods do not work. however, windows 8.1 is much better. but it was missed for the dumb 10 and now another dumb 11 of the spy system
29 Ağustos 2021, Pazar -
@m1983j Yeah I think you might just have to reinstall all of the mods over from scratch again or something. And yeah, I remember feeling that same exact way about Win10 when it came out, I was like wtf is this dramatic step backwards from the radical and awesome UI design of 8 and 8.1 that I had loved so much, and the Win10 tablet mode doesn't even make up for it (Win10 tablet mode is complete and utter trashy garbage in comparison to Win 8 and 8.1), but I eventually got over it because there's just basically nothing that I could do but have memories and revisit from time to time in virtual machines.

@cakuzma Yes, `JM36 Lua Plugin` is a massively updated/upgraded replacement to the old/existing `Lua Plugin`, and any/all scripts that were made for the old/existing `Lua Plugin` will also (continue to) work with/in `JM36 Lua Plugin`, but not the other way around because the old `Lua Plugin` does not have anything that was added or introduced in the new `JM36 Lua Plugin`. Scripts made for the old/existing `Lua Plugin` will generally also run faster with/in `JM36 Lua Plugin`.
If you want to use any of the older scripts that were made for the older version of `Lua Plugin` with/in `JM36 Lua Plugin`, all that needs to be done is to simply place those scripts into your new `ScriptsDir-Lua` folder from `JM36 Lua Plugin` (which is similar to the addins/addons folder from the existing `Lua Plugin`), and it should just work.
