Unbinding Keys Not Possible
Here's a very simple question with a seemingly impossible solution. I am trying to completely unbind F5, F6, F7 and F8.

Whenever I try to leave the settings menu it says my settings cannot be applied because I did not bind all controls required. These F-keys allow you to quick switch between characters. However, I still have Alt available to switch between characters.

I'm not sure why it's forcing me to bind these keys, because I can still switch with Alt, and I simply don't want to use these particular actions. I just want to use these keys for scripting.

Tips/help would be appreciated!

What? How does this answer contribute to my question? How does my question make me a cheater?

EDIT: See for yourself: https://gta5-mods.com/tools/scripthookv-net Scripthook usage is fine, as long as it's used in Story Mode. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Back on-topic, please. How do I completely unbind keys?

Sir, please don't de-rail my topic.

Are you seriously calling me out to be a cheater because I want to add Quicksave and Quickload? Wow, you must be a fun person in real life!

Having a great time picking on smalltime developers trying to give back to the community? Do yourself a favor and annoy some ONLINE cheaters/hackers... There's a BIG difference between a hacker and someone who wants to add more content to their Story Mode.

Now once again, does anyone know how to completely unbind keys?

That explains all !!

Also , suggest to ask any questions regarding scripts and modding else where , here people hate cheaters ! Even if they say that want to cheat in single play .

Also about scripthook is well known that people use it in online mode , the way it shows , they will blink .

There's no point trying to ask on these forums mate. The vast majority of the users here are thick-skulled imbeciles who don't understand that some people want to enjoy the game in their own ways.

Anyways, back on topic: The only way that I can think to help would be to rebind the switch character buttons to some other keys that you don't use (Such as Page Up etc.). There might be a way to unbind them via some manual messing with the .ini files, but I don't have enough experience with GTA V to argue either way.

Maybe if you would have read my post properly, you would have known I have no interest in using this online, as I have no desire for a ban or ending up in "Bad Sports" pools. Read carefully next time.

I guess you're right. Biggest problem is they're putting online hacking children and community modders into the same boat. They don't distinguish them as 2 different types of people with different intentions and goals.
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ and annoying children are basically anywhere, as long as the situation allows it. It only takes a 10-year old to find and download a GTAV trainer and subsequently use it - let alone in online mode. These people should be mad at Rockstar Games, as it is their responsibility to take effective actions or maybe even preemptive measures against such children.

As for the keybindings, I could not find any ini files in AppData or SaveGame folders, hence I think they're stored in "cfg.dat" in the user specific savegame folder. Too bad it's stored in some unreadable data format. Not sure why they would do that just for settings.

0: Set all your other controls to how you would like them to be first so you don't have to repeat this

1: Change the controls whatever you want to unbind
I did recording and just cycled them around so the action that was f1 is now f2, f2 is now f3 and f3 is f1

2: Navigate to
%USER%\Documents\Rockstar Games\GTA V\Profiles\%RANDOM%\control
(I think, I have a RockstarWarehouse copy of the game, if you can find where your save files are you should be able to find the folder titled 'control')

3: Open user.xml with notepad or some other text editor

4: find code that looks like:

<Item>
<Input>INPUT_REPLAY_START_STOP_RECORDING</Input>
<Source>IOMS_KEYBOARD</Source>
<Parameters>
<Item>KEY_F2</Item>
</Parameters>
</Item>

(The second line with be different for different actions, and third will be different, I have a MicroSoft keyboard)

5: Then delete 'KEY_F2' (or whatever you set yours to) between the second <item> tags, so for this action it should look like:

<Item>
<Input>INPUT_REPLAY_START_STOP_RECORDING</Input>
<Source>IOMS_KEYBOARD</Source>
<Parameters>
<Item></Item>
</Parameters>
</Item>

6: Repeat for each action you want unbinded

7: Save the file and restart the game

You can look at your key bindings in game and see they are blank (hopefully). It will give you the alert when you goto exit, but it won't reassign those keys.

BUT if you want to change any other keys then you have to manually rebind all those blank actions yourself and then change what you want and then redo this process to unbind what you don't want again, that's why I added step 0.

There is ways around that by editing the user.xml but that is more complicated, people who could do that can probably figure it out themselves.

I am aware that this thread is probably no longer relevant to you but hopefully anyone like me searching for this in the future will find this helpful.

Amurell, you are most dumpest person i ever seen. I am using tons of mods and never going online you know why? Because i hate online cheaters. Yo, am i not an online cheater? Absolutely not. Because the difference is, online chaters use trainers and mods while they're playing online. Modders using trainers and mods while they're playing story mode.

In my entire life, i never seen a simple offline trainer can work online without undetected. But in all of ♥♥♥♥♥♥ rockstar's games, they are working online at first times. So get up your xxx and shout at rockstar's ceo.

And a second we are using mods because game doesnt providing these features by themselves. Such as ridiculous cars and names (did you see a car named zentorno or coil voltic in real life?? ), did you see a place named los santos in real life?, did you see or heard anything iaa or fib in real life? While you are watching police chase videos, did you ever see a ford crown victoria accelerating faster than million dollar cars and ramming suspect's car from behind and pushing it out of the road? Did you ever see in real life cops always know suspects' exact location and all of them running to there and killing him rather then arrest?

So tell the rockstar's ceo to implement these kind of features and we never have to be use mods... Because i dont want to spend my time to searching, installing, modifiying and making backups alright?

If it's useless why do you keep posting here? What's more useless to me is all the damn time you got on your hands. Now get out of here, 12 year old.
