OpenIV 2.7

OpenIV 2.7 includes numerous changes and improvements. All changes can be divided into several main groups:

Development of openFormats.

Support for openFormats for Grand Theft Auto V has significantly expanded. It is now possible to edit .gxt2 files using openFormats, and this functionality is available on all platforms – PC, xbox360, and ps3. For the PC version, it is now possible to edit texture files (.ytd) and object collision files (.ybn and .ybd) using openFormats.

openFormats for .awc audio files have also been improved for both Grand Theft Auto V and Max Payne 3.

Completely new version of Package Installer

Finally, we are pleased to introduce a new version of the Package Installer with support for Grand Theft Auto V. There is also support for a “mods” folder for Grand Theft Auto V. Using the new version of OIV package formats, you can change the appearance of the Package Installer and specify additional information about the mod author. Detailed documentation on OIV package formats will be published in the coming days.

Improved support for the “mods” folder for Grand Theft Auto V

We have added new notifications and features that will allow you to conveniently use the “mods” folder. Now, when you install the OpenIV.ASI plugin, you will be prompted to automatically create a “mods” folder.

If you have the OpenIV.ASI plugin installed and the “mods” folder created, you will see new options in the file context menu: “Copy to mods folder” and “Show in mods folder”.

Bug fixes and minor improvements

We have also tried to fix as many bugs as possible and implement various minor improvements to simplify working with OpenIV.
