Tired of GTA 5's vehicles blowing up too easily?
The Vehicle Explosion & Damage Control Mod ensures that vehicles become undriveable in a more realistic manner. Vehicles will only catch fire or explode under extreme conditions, allowing for a far more immersive experience.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Features:
Engine Health Check:
The mod monitors the engine health of all vehicles (including air vehicles) in the game including NPC vehicles. When a vehicle's engine health drops below a certain threshold, the engine becomes inoperable and the vehicle begins to smoke.
Fire Prevention:
Say goodbye to spontaneous combustion. This mod keeps your vehicle from catching fire due to regular damage, making it smoke instead and then becomes undriveable. And yes, this feature is optional.
Explosive & High-Impact Exceptions:
While regular damage won't set your car ablaze, certain extreme actions can still make it explode. Features like shooting the petrol tank or fuel ignition can be toggled on or off via the ini file.
Improved Realism:
With more nuanced damage responses, this mod adds a new layer of realism to GTA 5, making gunfights and car crashes more realistic and engaging.
Enhanced Realism for Air Vehicles:
The mod also extends its features to helicopters and planes. Control how these air vehicles behave during critical events like low altitude or collisions, all customizable via the ini file.
Ped/NPC Damage During Car Crashes:
Choose to enable or disable player or NPC damage during vehicle crashes for a more challenging gameplay.
Screen Blur Effect on Impact:
Experience a heightened sense of impact with a customizable screen blur effect when damaged in a car crash. Adjust its intensity and fade duration to suit your style.
Seatbelt Feature:
Wear a seatbelt to reduce damage taken during crashes. A toggleable feature that also comes with associated sound effects and notifications for better immersion.
Customization Through INI:
While the in-game UI facilitates on-the-fly adjustments, 'VehicleExplosionAndDamageControl.ini' grants a deeper level of customization and insight before you dive into the game. In the INI file, you’ll discover in-depth descriptions of each parameter, offering a meticulous level of control over your gameplay settings. To ensure your adjusted settings are applied, make any changes to the INI file prior to launching the game. Once in-game, utilize the UI for swift and convenient modifications as you play.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Additional Compatibility:
You can use this mod alongside my other mod 'Clean And Repair Anywhere' (https://www.gta5-mods.com/scripts/clean-repair-anywhere) to be able to repair the vehicle if it becomes undriveable.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Before you dive in, make sure to have the following installed.

Installation:
1. Drag and drop the scripts folder into the GTA V main directory.

For those of you familiar with my previous modding work on GTA and other titles, you already know how much I value your feedback, support, and ideas. Every mod I create is essentially a community project, shaped and refined by your invaluable input. Rest assured, this community-driven approach is here to stay.
If you have any suggestions or feedback—big or small—please don't hesitate to share. I'll give it my all to make your ideas a reality, within the realms of possibility. Keep in mind that some things may not be feasible or may require an extensive amount of work. As a single parent juggling various responsibilities, my time is limited, but modding is a passion of mine and I invest as much free time as I can into it.
So thank you, once again, for your ongoing support and constructive suggestions. It's your engagement that truly brings these mods to life.
How to make vehicles explode in any crash or damage? the max i can do is making it stop and turn on fire but they dont explode i dont know what im doing wrong or i cant be done????? help
Mostly seems to work tho does not seem to like NVE as regardless the car will engulf in flames tho not explode under gunfire. but sets people ablaze and the vehicle. Also Helis get blown up instantly still instead of an engine stall
@TheGreatWolf14 U got the solution?? i doubt anyone will reply to me.. i want vehicles to explode with any minor crash , did it but car just stops, burns and the end no instant explosion neither after.. This mod makes cars no explodable?
@Capitanmegaa so this mod makes it where gunfire wont blow a car up, adding realism. explosives will STILL blow up the vehicle however. just not gunfire unless u shoot the fuel tank
Does this mod mess up deformation on cars?
I love the idea of this mod but it doesn't seem to work for GTA 5 Enhanced sadly. I installed this mod in my scripts folder, but in game cars and helicopters just continue to explode as usual. I shot at a car with a minigun and it exploded as usual. Please fix this mod for GTA 5 Enhanced.
@MyName7132 Sorry for the long reply I had to take some time away due to IRL challenges and work.
This is already possible however stopping explosives from blowing up the vehicle is challenging with gta mechanics, bullets yes but explosives no not currently.
@justanuser Sorry for the long reply I had to take some time away due to IRL challenges and work.
There is settings in the ini to prevent this, its just the defaults wont let you due to realism, its not realistic to shoot a petrol tank and it exploads.
; Prevents the vehicle's petrol tank from exploding. (Default: True)
DisablePetrolTankExplosion=True > Change to False
; Enables ignition of leaking fuel when shot. - You would need DisablePetrolTankExplosion disabled for this to work. (Default: True)
AllowFuelIgnition=False > Change to True.
@B1gstinker Sorry for the long reply I had to take some time away due to IRL challenges and work.
You could always change the ini setting EngineHealthLimit=10 which would make it destroy faster, just increase the number, currently at 10 that means that once the engine drops below 10 health it will disable.
@MittensMcMuffin Sorry for the long reply I had to take some time away due to IRL challenges and work. The script will create the ini file for you and it should be in your scripts folder.
To change the settings in game you would need to adjust the ini and then reload your scripts using the shv reload button you set.
@Hellsky Sorry for the long reply I had to take some time away due to IRL challenges and work.
This will be fixed for the next update, ill push it out very shortly.
@koozmichev Sorry for the long reply I had to take some time away due to IRL challenges and work.
New update dropping shortly.
@Capitanmegaa Sorry for the long reply I had to take some time away due to IRL challenges and work.
Vehicles are not meant to explode unless you change the ini settings, thats kind of the point in the mod?
@Capitanmegaa Sorry for the long reply I had to take some time away due to IRL challenges and work.
; Determines the engine health value to set once it falls below the EngineHealthLimit. (Default: 0)
; Setting this value to -50 will leave the engine on fire but no explosion unless the fuel tank is damaged, setting it to -100 will allow the vehicle to explode and anything
; from 0 or above will prevent the vehicle from exploding unless the fuel tank is damaged and you have that setting on.
EngineHealthAfterLimit=-50

@Genesis420 Sorry for the long reply I had to take some time away due to IRL challenges and work.
No it does not change deformation, but there is an option for vehicle degradation.
@Dergo32 Sorry for the long reply I had to take some time away due to IRL challenges and work.
I have not tried it with GTA V Enhanced tbh, I will do some testing over the next week or so.
Pushed a small update out for 1.06: The mod will now work in Los Santos, there was logic that was preventing it from functioning to fix the jewel store heist bike blowing up.
Ill take a look at if its compatible with GTA V Enhanced in the near future.
@MickieFinn Hey bro no problem at all i understand. Appreciate you for letting me know i'll do that!
