Scripthookv Issue. PLEASE HELP GUYS!
When I attempt to open menu, I get the message “failed to reload scripts because the D:\SteamGames/steamapps/common/Grand Theft Auto V/scripts directory is missing” yet I have everything in order. The mods I used before the update are still there, but I can’t open the menu when I press “F4” or any of the keys I used before. I can’t even character swap anymore due to the menu not working, anymore. Am I doing something wrong? It is because I reinstalled the game onto an SD card?

Ask in the game's own discussion section, with mods it could be anything and the regulars there will be better able to help.

Remove all the mods, run the game mod-free.

Then what after that? I use the mods for my gameplay.

this is the diffrence in make a clear install, to undo what mods did or still doing or still effecting the game then its so call removed. ( even save game can be effect from this. )

and you shouls ask game own forum or modder.

This has nothing to do with steam, ask in gta 5 forum

I’m using Steam. Therefore it does. Don’t respond if you don’t plan to help.

It's more likely to get assistance regarding Grand Theft Auto V in the actual discussions for the game itself rather than on "Help and Tips" for Steam.

Not everybody on Steam owns GTA V, so ask on GTA V's discussions to get assistance from users who actually own the game.

Whoa, hang on a minute. YOu said "is it because I installed the game on an SD card?"

If you mean you are running the game from an SD card as if it were a drive, then yes, absolutely that is you problem.

SD cards are NOT drives and they will cause all sorts of issues. It's especially common among younger users to think this - I've seen quite a few posts thinking that as an SD card is cheap per gigabyte, they'd make an excellent solution, but it's wrong. Simply because it doesn't work like that.

SD cards are STORAGE ONLY. In other words, you bung stuff on it, you retrieve stuff from it. You do NOT use it "live" like a hard drive where there's constant read and write cycles back and forth.

You'll typically get these symptoms - it won't work correctly, or it won't work at all, or it'll just suddenyl stop working because you've broken it.

Unless you mean "I installed the game FROM SD card".

Thanks for this response. I wasn’t aware of any of that, man. I had the game on my laptop, but the Update required more space than I had. Therefore I couldn’t play for weeks. The only solution was for me to get more space. So I reinstalled/updated the game after moving it to the SD card. I wouldn’t have enough space to play otherwise. If I didn’t do that, I still wouldn’t be able to play. Is there another way to fix this? Anywhere else I can put the game for the scripthook to work again? How else can I get it to work again? Any suggestions? Again, thanks for. this response.

Yup, the only way to fix it is to NOT use any USB stick or SD card. They are NOT and never can be drives. Trying to use them as such just destroys them.

You could do what I do - buy external USB drives. The last one I bought was £40 for a 1TB from Amazon (Maxthon brand). Cheap as chips.

It doesnt. This subforum is for general steam help and tips if everyone would post everything about every game in this single subforum it would be a complete mess.

Therefor each game has his own hub with forum.
