You can also tweak the time, weather, location, and other settings similar to Director Mode, but without having to leave the main game.
Most exciting, though, is the skin changer, which lets you select from a huge range of characters and animals to replace the player model.Unlike the game's collectible peyote plants, which transform you into specific animals, this mod gives you a bit more freedom.
Meaning, you can become a whale, at will, on the busy streets of Los Santos, or drive vehicles as a four-legged creature. We tried wielding a grenade launcher as Chop, and while he was able to equip it, we couldn't get him to actually start firing.
Maybe one day.
The skin changer also includes parent portraits from the GTA Online character creator – "portrait" is the keyword here. You will literally only spawn as a disembodied torso.
More Mods!
Here's to hoping for some fully fleshed out custom skins in Grand Theft Auto 5 soon.
You can find a download for Script Hook V + Native Trainer and installation instructions on GTA5-Mods.com.
Be warned, Rockstar has a zero tolerance policy on mods that alter GTA Online, and this mod in particular disables custom scripts if you try to use it online anyway, so don't even try. Play fair and have fun! Chloi Rad is a Staff Writer for IGN. You can follow her on Twitter at @_chloi.
