We’re happy to welcome everyone to the public preview of LSPDFR for GTA V Enhanced Edition! This is an early preview build, so please keep in mind that not all Legacy Edition features are available yet. We’ll be continuously updating this version as we work toward full feature parity.

We thank our fantastic Patreon Insiders for providing valuable feedback to us for the past few months.

Plugin and callout compatibility
If you’re wondering whether your favourite callouts and plugins will work: in most cases, yes. A small number of mods that directly interface with the game’s memory may have issues and need updated by their creators, but the vast majority should run fine.

The new RAGEPluginHook has been designed to mostly 'just work' using the new hybrid RAGEPluginHook approach.

NVMe + DirectStorage warning (RAGE Plugin Hook)
If you’re playing GTA V Enhanced on an NVMe drive (you MOST likely are if you have a new system!!), you may see a warning from RAGE Plugin Hook about DirectStorage being enabled. To resolve this, install the DirectStorage fix (also linked by RPH):

Please pay particular attention to this mod's requirements (particularly the ASI loader).

Should I use Enhanced Edition?
RAGEPluginHook and LSPDFR are using a hybrid approach to support both Enhanced Edition and Legacy Edition going forward. We’ve also seen a lot of feedback online suggesting that Enhanced Edition loads faster and runs better than Legacy.

That said, this is a Public Preview. Some mods and callouts may not be updated yet, so Legacy Edition may be more compatible for now. The Enhanced Edition versions of LSPDFR and RAGEPluginHook may also contain bugs that haven’t been caught in Insider testing.

A lot of content, for example all vehicle models, need ported to Enhanced and will not work out of the box. Tools like OpenIV largely do not work, and have been mostly replaced by CodeWalker. You will not be able to use most content modifications out of the box on Enhanced Edition.

Ultimately, our goal is to keep this choice in your hands for as long as possible.


Lastly, for those of you who celebrate, I hope you had a wonderful Christmas — and wishing everyone a fantastic New Year. Here’s to a happy, healthy 2026 for us all.

Plugins that use memory editing will most likely not work out of the box and require an update from their developer. Given that Bejoijo hasn’t updated his plugins in a long time, you might be out of luck here. Luckily there is a replacement in the works by a few developers from the community. 

Overall testing is going quite well and there appear to be no game-breaking issues in RPH or LSPDFR left (so far). We still need to port over a few missing features and fix some bugs that affect a smaller subset of users (mostly DirectX/DirectSound related), but hopefully that will not take that much longer. Thanks for your patience!

I have a question, are any of these insiders allowed to post videos about their experiences on lspdfr? I'd really like to see how it handles on GTA v enhanced PC maybe on YouTube or something?

That is a fantastic news! Thank you very much for this long awaited progress update, I am (really) looking forward to see what the team has been cooking under the hood!

On a small side note, I am simply amazed to see everyone (the devs and community) so involved in making LSPDFR bigger and greater every day, and I am so happy when I see how far this mod came from... A big thank you to everyone involved reading this, your passion is amazing to see and follow!

oh i'm incredibly pumped for this!  Thank you for working tirelessly for the community.

Status Updates
LSPDFR for Enhanced
We're very excited to announce that LSPDFR Enhanced, after months of development and testing, is now entering the next phase of the development process and is now available to our Insiders. We are deeply grateful to everyone in our staff team and closed testing community for their feedback and support that have brought us to this point.
 
The current build is largely stable, though a handful of bugs remain and we are not yet feature complete with Legacy. Development is advancing quickly, and each new revision brings us closer to a fully polished release.
 
Several community members have asked whether the Legacy edition will continue to receive attention. Both RAGEPluginHook and LSPDFR have been engineered to accommodate the Legacy and Enhanced branches side‑by‑side. With most of the heavy lifting complete, our goal is to roll out updates to both editions in parallel.
 
As soon as we’ve smoothed out the last few wrinkles and made sure everything runs flawlessly, we can’t wait to roll out LSPDFR Enhanced to everyone.
 
The new LCPDFR.com
Work on the redesigned LCPDFR.com is progressing steadily. The site and its companion, RDR2Mods.com, run on the same underlying codebase.
An early version of the community upgrade is already live on RDR2Mods.com, allowing us to gather real‑world feedback, refine new concepts, and further stabilize the platform before bringing the enhancements to LCPDFR.com.
 
 
We thank you all for your patience and continued enthusiasm, and hope to share even more with you soon.
