Family Friendly Free Roaming v2.5.1 for GTA 5 game.
Short description
This project aims for making roaming/exploring in GTA V a smoother experience, with less interrupting elements and no violence. Focus is on making the game have as little violence and disturbance as possible but this can be customized in the configuration file if you like to do violent missions for example. The mod is activated by default but if you enable a deactivation key in the configuration file the mod can be toggled between activated and inactivated while playing. I highly recommend using this 100% completed game save in order to remove violence and have everything unlocked.
Make sure to install the configuration file (more under installation). (Basically just put FamilyFriendlyFreeRoaming 2.x.asi and FamilyFriendlyFreeRoaming.ini into the folder where GTA5.exe is located.) Also check out "How to make changes in the configuration file". If you want even less violence, scroll down to "How to make the game even less violent".
If you have ideas for new features and improvements I appreciate if you share them in the comments.

Terminology
-- The "player" always refers to your character.
-- In this description and in the configuration file the word "ped" (short for pedestrian) is used frequently. The game uses this word and includes all humans/people but also animals in the ped category. The player got an own category, player, although the player can also be included in ped category. An example of this is [Both_Options] in the configuration file. Otherwise when stated "ped" or in plural "peds" it doesn't include the player, but all other humans/people (and animals where it makes sense).
-- Ragdoll refers to ragdoll physics: wikipedia.org/wiki/Ragdoll_physics
-- The configuration file which comes with the mod with the name FamilyFriendlyFreeRoaming.ini is sometimes referred to as "the .ini file" or "the config file".
Default keys
-- N - if you're a driver of a vehicle, you will teleport yourself to the closest vehicle and become the driver. If you are a passenger in a vehicle, you will become the driver.
-- B - if you're not inside a vehicle you will join the vehicle closest to you as a passenger, but only if it has got a driver. If you're already inside a vehicle you will switch to a new seat. If this seat is already taken, you will switch places with the passenger sitting on the seat you're switching to.
-- E (using the horn) - peds (pedestrians) around you, who wants to join you in your vehicle will come running. When you're completely still with your vehicle and using the horn (E), all peds inside your vehicle will leave.
-- Numpad + for increase in vehicle engine power. Numpad - for decrease.
-- End - teleports your vehicle to the closest path/road. If you're already on a path/road you will be teleported to an asphalt road. If you're already on asphalt you will be teleported to an asphalt road close by. Huge planes teleports to the desert airport. If no player vehicle exists at all, you, the player, will be teleported instead in the same way that a your vehicle would have been teleported.
-- Delete - deactivate/activate the mod (only works if you got the .ini installed). This feature needs to be enabled in the configuration file.
Main features. These are activated/on by default if not stated otherwise in the description. You can turn the features on/off in the configuration file
-- Everyone is friendly towards each other and there are no weapons.
-- Nobody can get hurt or ragdoll and vehicles can't explode. Since there is no violence, there is no blood either. You and peds always land safely when falling and a parachute is automatically used if needed.
-- Speech including bad language and sounds of pain are muted.
-- You can remove/skip radio stations you don't like. By default a selected few that are less disturbing are set to on by default.
-- Violent and sexually disturbing peds are removed like hookers, strippers, cultists, but also Wade, Lamar and Denise. (Lamar to prevent the story mode mission to be started when using the 10% completed game save).
-- There are no cops although it can be fun to activate them but keep them as friendly, resulting in some funny combinations.
-- Peds and the player wont be able to taunt/ show the middle finger. The player can't kick or beat in any way or shoot with any weapon, not even vehicle weapons like in a tank and fighter aircraft. Peds never do any hostile actions. Nobody is scared of the player and they wont flee.
-- Join a drivers vehicle as a passenger with the default key B. While inside a vehicle and pressing B, you switch seat. If there already is a passenger on the new seat, you switch places. Press N as passenger to switch place with the driver.
-- Switch vehicles instantly with default key N to the closest one to your position. Works with cars, motorbikes, quadbikes, bicyles, helicopters, planes and boats. If there's no vehicle close by (distances can be changed in the .ini file), you will be set inside a new random spawned motorbike or car. If close to a sea or lake, the player gets a boat and is teleported to the water. If driven up on the shores with a boat, a car or motorbike is spawned and the player is moved inside it. A random spawned vehicle can also be changed in the .ini file to always be used.
-- Buss peds. Use the horn to signal to peds to join you in your vehicle. When completely still and using the horn, all peds inside will leave. Planes, helicopters and boats works too. Can be set to only work with buses and taxis.
-- Unstuck-key. Teleports your vehicle to the closest path node nearby, which can be in water, a small path on land or an asphalt road. If already on a path/road, teleports to an asphalt road. If already on asphalt, teleports to asphalt close by. Huge planes teleports to the desert airport. If no player vehicle exists at all, you will be teleported instead.
-- Teleports your vehicle a small distance up on land when it gets into water. This option works like the above feature called "Unstuck key".
-- Options for no collision between your vehicle and peds and/or peds vehicles. (Not activated/on by default). This allows you to pass through peds and their vehicles with your own vehicle without collisions.
-- Spawn random vehicles option (not fully activated/on by default).
-- Increase and decrease of the engines power with two keys. A negative value makes the vehicle go slower than normal (0).
-- Consequences When Crashing option (not activated/on by default).
-- Option to switch vehicles instantly by driving into one (not activated/on by default).
-- Inactivate/activate the mod with a key.
-- Visual effects and sounds options for random horn sounds, particle FX effects, firework and flares when interacting with the vehicle horn (not activated/on by default).
-- Music options on/off for flight music (and radio automatically on when entering plane or helicopter, however this is off by default and flight music is on), police wanted music and police scanner radio (police wanted music and police scanner set to off by default).
-- Support for Xinput controller (e.g. Xbox 360 pad). Needs to be activated in the configuration file that comes with the mod in order to use.
-- The level of violence can be customized to your preferences. For example you can change these values (if invincible is set to off) for the player, ped and/or vehicles: bulletProof, fireProof, explosionProof, collisionProof, meleeProof. Only for vehicles: strong, wheels can break, tyres can burst, can be visibly damaged, engine can degrade.
-- Other features/ options that can be set to on or off:
Invincible options, police ignore player, everyone ignore player, clear player wanted level, clear area of cops, player can't be hassled by gangs, player noise multiplier, can't be dragged out, player stick to vehicle, pedestrians vehicles disappear underground to avoid collisions, block melee with animation, wont create random cops, can't be targeted, clear ped blood damage, fix windows while inside vehicle, can't fly through windscreen, set maximum vehicle speed for player and police, disable player combat with firearms and melee, vehicle light multiplier and more.
All peds are invincible by default, on foot and in vehicles. You can't run them over and they can't ragdoll. They will just move out of the way. They are bulletProof, fireProof, explosionProof, collisionProof and meleeProof.
More features and info in the in the configuration file that comes with the mod.
Installation
You need the latest version of the tool Script Hook V by Alexander Blade in order for this mod to work.
Open the the .zip file with file explorer. Copy FamilyFriendlyFreeRoaming 2.x.asi and FamilyFriendlyFreeRoaming.ini into your GTA5 folder where your GTA5.exe is located. Play the game in story mode. Remove the mod by removing the asi file. Always use the latest configuration file that comes with the mod (FamilyFriendlyFreeRoaming.ini) or make sure it's updated by checking the changelog.
In order for the mod to work with the default settings you need to use a game save file and I highly recommend using this 100% completed game save in order to remove violence and have everything unlocked.
Copy the save game file into this folder (or similar): C:\Users\YourWindowsUsername\Documents\Rockstar Games\GTA V\Profiles\5417B236 You can rename the file if you want, to something between SGTA50000 and SGTA50015 i.e. 16 game saves can be recognized by the game and if you already have a game save with the name SGTA50000 for example you can rename it to SGTA50001 or whatever you want up to SGTA50015.
If you're not getting the save file above to work you can try this starter game save instead and see if that works better.
The mod is activated by default. If you do not install the .ini file, the mod will use default settings which are set to about the same as the default .ini file i.e max no violence. The inactivation key is also disabled. It should work fine but nearly all testing has only been done using the .ini file. Have that in mind when you decide to play without it. You can still report bugs if you find any while not using the .ini file.
If you're having problems, please use the comment section and give me a notification by starting your comment with @R3QQ.
Old version of the mod (2.4)
Note that you can be banned if you try to use mods in multiplayer (GTA Online). "Script hook closes GTA V when player goes in multiplayer" so this doesn't happen by mistake when it comes to scrips like this.
How to update to a new version of the mod
Replace the old FamilyFriendlyFreeRoaming x.asi file with the new one. Check the changelog here below in the description for changes in the .ini file. Add these to your FamilyFriendlyFreeRoaming.ini file. You can also just replace your configuration file with the new one.
How to make changes in the configuration file
With the mod comes the file called FamilyFriendlyFreeRoaming.ini. As stated in the installation instruction, this file goes into your GTA5 folder where your GTA5.exe is located. Just like the mod itself. The file can be opened and edited just like a text file but you might have to right click on it and click open as. You can use any text editor, like notepad.
The .ini file is read from continuously by this mod and so when you make changes in it and save it, these changes will take effect when you tab back into the game. There is no need to restart anything. Just go Alt + Tab while playing and switch to the .ini file, make some changes, save and Alt + Tab back into the game.
Further instructions are found inside the configuration file. Basically you just change between 0 (off) and 1 (on). For example you can change vehicle_can_be_damaged=0 to vehicle_can_be_damaged=1 to make vehicles be able to take damage.
How to make the game even less violent
-- Michael is slightly better than Franklin. Change to him with a trainers skin changer (the native trainer works). You can also switch by holding down the Alt key (from 2.5 this mod needs to be deactivated in order to show the character wheel). Do not play as Trevor if you want to avoid disturbing content.
-- You might want to consider turning these features on: consequences_when_crashing_into= (1 or 2)
max_vehicle_speed= (anything above -1 will be used, -1 means off)
-- Remove the intro video of the game.
-- Alternative loading screens.
-- With a trainer like Enhanced Native Trainer you can auto remove scratches on the vehicle etc. With the help of a menu you can customize your experience even further and for example also spawn all vehicle models, change the time and lock it and teleport. Note that some features exists in both my mod and these trainers.
-- Again, don't play as Trevor. :)
-- Turn off notifications under settings in the game menu.
-- You might want to consider disable more radio channels. Some are still on as default that are not so violent but to be completely sure you can instead use the self radio with your own music or Spotify. You can turn music off in the game settings, if you don't want to do it in the .ini file.
Play your own music instead of the radio: In the configuration file, under [Radio], set all channels to -1 except RADIO_19_USER which should be set to 1. Here's how you set up your user music channel. If you don't want any radio or music at all you can go ahead and change OFF=0 to OFF=1 in the config file.
-- The "Ultimate 100% Perfect Game Save" linked to above is now recommended to use. If you experience any problems, please report them in the comment section and then try this starter game save instead and see if that works better. Note that this save only got about 10% story completed which means that not everything in the game is unlocked in shops etc. But you can get those items with a trainer if you like, for example max out your vehicle. You can also only play as Franklin although that doesn't really matter and you can still change skin with a trainer if you like. The whole map is unlocked so it doesn't affect your exploring.
On the map there is a marker leading to a violent mission. Make sure to have set stop_cutscenes=1 (set as default), that way the mission will fail directly, before any violence occurs and the free roaming can continue.

A few interesting mods
I have not tested all of them yet so I can't say for sure that they are all completely violent free.
JobsV [.NET]
Trucking Missions
Animal Ark Shelter
Vehicle Remote Central Locking (no violence, made by me)
Koenigsegg Agera R. A totally amazing car mod with many cars included in a dlc/addon
Open All Interiors. A must have.
Single Player Apartment
Super Yacht
Working Restaurants
Travel to North Yankton
Nice Fly
Los Santos Airlines
Premium Deluxe Motorsport Car Dealership
If your computer can handle it, consider installing a graphics enhancer mod from this site. It really makes it so much more fun!
I didn't get any FPS drop while using this setup:
1. ENB
2. VisualV, use the mod package in OpenIV
3. "The package called "ReShade + SweetFX 2.0". Only worked for me when installing manually, that is
moving Sweet.fx, ReShade.fx, ReShade64.dll and the SweetFX folder into the GTA V folder."
4. Presets
I like game brightness at about 40-50% with this.
Not yet implemented/ todo list
-- Remove more inappropriate pedestrian models if any are found (although pretty sure all are gone by now).
-- With 1.1 all speech sounds are suppressed. With the help of OpenIV you can replace sound files. They got nice guides for this. It require some time invested though. The ambient sound files are in "GTA V/x64/audio/sfx S_". Normal male peds are in S_FULL_AMB_M and females in S_FULL_AMB_F
Players are inside S_MISC.
-- Maybe an unlockable menu to make it easier for those who makes changes in the configuration file often.
-- Your feedback.

disable_all_firing_and_melee=0 ;(0 means this feature is not activated)
max_vehicle_speed=-1 ;(-1 means this feature is not used)
- 1.9
-- 2 new modes for switching vehicle (N): 1. Normal. 2. if no found car, spawn random one. 3. Always spawn random.
1. Nothing happens if no nearby car or motorbike can be found.
2. When there are no vehicles close by to teleport to, the player teleports inside a new spawned "random" car or motorbike. All vehicles are checked to be suitable. Fast cars are more common than others.
3. The player always gets teleported to a new spawned car or motorbike when pressing the key.
-- New feature called Consequences When Crashing. With crashing means crashing into vehicles and peds. In the .ini consequences_when_crashing_into set to 0 means no consequences (default). 1 means engine stops and needs to be "fixed" (hotwired). 2 means more of the same as 1.

- 1.9.1
-- Weapons are now removed from the player by default. Get them back and usable by setting (works while playing): remove_all_player_weapons=0 and disable_all_firing_and_melee=0 in the .ini file and save it (scroll up to "How to make changes in the configuration file" for more info). The player also gets back all weapons when deactivating the mod with the key.

-- The players golf club is no longer removed if remove_all_player_weapons is set to 2 and disable_all_firing_and_melee is set to 1. This is to allow golf to be played (golf needs to be unlocked in the game, use the 100% complete game save in order to play).
-- Peds golf clubs are no longer removed when remove_all_ped_weapons is set to 1 if both everyone_ignore_player and peds_like_you_and_wont_flee are set to 1 as well.
-- Improved change_to_closest_vehicle. When pressing default key N and there already is a ped driver inside and the player havn't got a vehicle, the ped will be moved to a passenger seat if there is one available. If not and the vehicle is full, a new random vehicle will be spawned. Unless it's your vehicle,
then you will get it back.

-- Various improvements and minor fixes.
- 1.9.3
-- can_do_drivebys set to 0 (default) now also stops peds inside vehicles from taunting/ giving the middle finger. This took many days of research before a solution was found. This is the last disturbing/ violent thing that I have found (in the 10% completed game save) and so it's great that it's gone now!
-- Peds should no longer not give up trying to get inside the players vehicle when the horn is used and not everyone can fit inside. This could happen when a game save was loaded while inside the game already.
-- Changes in the .ini file:
added under [Player_Options]:
no_flight_music=0 ; 1 means no special music when flying. When flying, special music is normally played instead of the radio or silence.

A value related to falling didn't work in all situations so I had to change it. I noticed this when trying the mod on another computer. It should work now.
- 2.3
-- Performance optimization.
-- Changed default value of speech_sounds to the new value -40. -40 means same as -30 (no scripted conversations) except scripted conversations are allowed when inside a taxi. This is to avoid for example preaching soapboxers but still hear the communication with the central. Old default value was -10.
- 2.4 Video of some features
-- Peds can now skydive and fly parachute from players helicopter or plane. Minimum hight is 50 meters above ground.
-- Improved change vehicle features like change_to_closest_vehicle. Added support for quadbikes, bicyles, helicopters, planes and boats . Cars and motorbikes already worked. The finding of the closest vehicle is also more accurate now.
-- Added 3 new values to the configuration file.
Under [Player_Options]:
max_distance_to_new_vehicle=100
;A new vehicle will only be looked for within the distance (in meters).
;
new_vehicle_max_height_over_ground=100
;If a vehicle, for example a helicopter or a plane is above this height it will be ;ignored. This value needs to be lower or equal to ;max_distance_to_new_vehicle.
Under [Pedestrian_Options]:
max_distance_to_ground_to_use_parachute=250
;Peds wont use their parachutes until they reach this altitude (in meters) or ;lower. Needs to be higher than 50.
-- Removed ways the player could use melee when disable_all_firing_and_melee is set to 1.
-- Improved disable_all_firing_and_melee. The player can no longer shoot with vehicle weapons.
-- Improved remove_all_ped_weapons. Ped pilots (not including the player) are no longer able to fly the military fighter jet called Lazer in the area of Fort Zancudo. This is because they shoot at the player. There seems to still be a script from the game which causes random explosions without any source if you fly inside the airspace of the fort.
-- Improved bussing_peds_with_horn. Peds should no longer keep running after players vehicle without entering it.
-- Fixed reset issues.
-- Various minor improvements.
- 2.5
-- Improved remove_all_ped_weapons - The army base Fort Zancudo no longer creates random explosions when flying over it. Thanks to Unknown_Modder.
-- Improved clear_player_wanted_level - Full access to Fort Zancudo and Los Santos International Airport. This means no wanted stars. Thanks to Unknown_Modder.
-- Fixed issue with fleeing peds which happend in some situations.
-- Peds can now be bussed even when the option to make everyone friendly and not flee is off.
-- Now ignores undrivable cars etc. when finding the closest vehicle. new_vehicle_max_height_over_ground in the .ini file should be 100000 instead of 100 as default. Also, this value is not dependent of max_distance_to_new_vehicle as it's said in the file. This will be changed in the next update but it's easy to change the values to what you want yourself now already.
-- Updated the weapon list used for reset and removal with the new weapons from the latest game update.
-- New ini values under [Player]:
can_switch_player=0
;Mainly to prevent trevor from being used.
;
can_use_phone=1
;To prevent showing email, text messages, Internet and contacts when set to 0.
;But this also disables the ability to quick save and take photos.
-- remove_all_player_weapons under [Player_Options] changed to 2 as default: flash light and golf club are allowed.
-- Added new values related to termination of disturbing game scripts to the configuration file in a new section:
[Native_Scripts]
;1 means no change. 0 means terminate and keep it off. A game save needs to be reloaded after
;changing some of these before effect happens.
;
app_internet=0
;Disables the webbrowser when set to 0.
;
app_textmessage=1
;If set to 0, the phone might freeze when getting a message.
;
app_contacts=0
;
blip_controller=1
;At 0, all blips from scripts on the map are removed.
;
bong_smoking=0
;Also drinking.
;
event_carsteal=0
;
disturbing_player_scenes=0
;
random_disturbing_events=0
;
sexually_disturbing=0
-- Disabled player switch to avoid trevor. Save your game with/as Michael if you want to play as him and then install or activate the mod.
-- Can disable the mobile phone completly.
-- Added Trevors friend Ron Jakowski to the list of disturbing peds.
-- Removed the interior of trevors trailor.
-- Examples of additional activites in the 100% completed game saved: Play golf and tennis!
Parachute jumps from piloted helicopter, yoga, triathlon, races, darts, watch a movie, get a haircut,
ride the fairground rides, buy more clothes.
-- Random and property events should now be disabled.
-- The 100% completed game save is now preferred and recommended to use.
- 2.5.1
Two changes in the .ini file:
-- Recent game updates seems to have disabled the feature called fix_windows under [Both_Options]. It is now set to 0 instead of 1. There could be more errors related to Rockstars changes to the game. Please report if you find any.
-- new_vehicle_max_height_over_ground in the .ini file should be 100000 instead of 100 as default. Also, this value is not dependent of max_distance_to_new_vehicle as it's said before in the file.
This project aims for making roaming/exploring in GTA V a smoother experience, with less interrupting elements and no violence. Focus is on making the game have as little violence and disturbance as possible but this can be customized in the configuration file if you like to do violent missions for example. The mod is activated by default but if you enable a deactivation key in the configuration file the mod can be toggled between activated and inactivated while playing. I highly recommend using this 100% completed game save in order to remove violence and have everything unlocked.
Make sure to install the configuration file (more under installation). (Basically just put FamilyFriendlyFreeRoaming 2.x.asi and FamilyFriendlyFreeRoaming.ini into the folder where GTA5.exe is located.) Also check out "How to make changes in the configuration file". If you want even less violence, scroll down to "How to make the game even less violent".
If you have ideas for new features and improvements I appreciate if you share them in the comments.

Terminology
-- The "player" always refers to your character.
-- In this description and in the configuration file the word "ped" (short for pedestrian) is used frequently. The game uses this word and includes all humans/people but also animals in the ped category. The player got an own category, player, although the player can also be included in ped category. An example of this is [Both_Options] in the configuration file. Otherwise when stated "ped" or in plural "peds" it doesn't include the player, but all other humans/people (and animals where it makes sense).
-- Ragdoll refers to ragdoll physics: wikipedia.org/wiki/Ragdoll_physics
-- The configuration file which comes with the mod with the name FamilyFriendlyFreeRoaming.ini is sometimes referred to as "the .ini file" or "the config file".
Default keys
-- N - if you're a driver of a vehicle, you will teleport yourself to the closest vehicle and become the driver. If you are a passenger in a vehicle, you will become the driver.
-- B - if you're not inside a vehicle you will join the vehicle closest to you as a passenger, but only if it has got a driver. If you're already inside a vehicle you will switch to a new seat. If this seat is already taken, you will switch places with the passenger sitting on the seat you're switching to.
-- E (using the horn) - peds (pedestrians) around you, who wants to join you in your vehicle will come running. When you're completely still with your vehicle and using the horn (E), all peds inside your vehicle will leave.
-- Numpad + for increase in vehicle engine power. Numpad - for decrease.
-- End - teleports your vehicle to the closest path/road. If you're already on a path/road you will be teleported to an asphalt road. If you're already on asphalt you will be teleported to an asphalt road close by. Huge planes teleports to the desert airport. If no player vehicle exists at all, you, the player, will be teleported instead in the same way that a your vehicle would have been teleported.
-- Delete - deactivate/activate the mod (only works if you got the .ini installed). This feature needs to be enabled in the configuration file.
Main features. These are activated/on by default if not stated otherwise in the description. You can turn the features on/off in the configuration file
-- Everyone is friendly towards each other and there are no weapons.
-- Nobody can get hurt or ragdoll and vehicles can't explode. Since there is no violence, there is no blood either. You and peds always land safely when falling and a parachute is automatically used if needed.
-- Speech including bad language and sounds of pain are muted.
-- You can remove/skip radio stations you don't like. By default a selected few that are less disturbing are set to on by default.
-- Violent and sexually disturbing peds are removed like hookers, strippers, cultists, but also Wade, Lamar and Denise. (Lamar to prevent the story mode mission to be started when using the 10% completed game save).
-- There are no cops although it can be fun to activate them but keep them as friendly, resulting in some funny combinations.
-- Peds and the player wont be able to taunt/ show the middle finger. The player can't kick or beat in any way or shoot with any weapon, not even vehicle weapons like in a tank and fighter aircraft. Peds never do any hostile actions. Nobody is scared of the player and they wont flee.
-- Join a drivers vehicle as a passenger with the default key B. While inside a vehicle and pressing B, you switch seat. If there already is a passenger on the new seat, you switch places. Press N as passenger to switch place with the driver.
-- Switch vehicles instantly with default key N to the closest one to your position. Works with cars, motorbikes, quadbikes, bicyles, helicopters, planes and boats. If there's no vehicle close by (distances can be changed in the .ini file), you will be set inside a new random spawned motorbike or car. If close to a sea or lake, the player gets a boat and is teleported to the water. If driven up on the shores with a boat, a car or motorbike is spawned and the player is moved inside it. A random spawned vehicle can also be changed in the .ini file to always be used.
-- Buss peds. Use the horn to signal to peds to join you in your vehicle. When completely still and using the horn, all peds inside will leave. Planes, helicopters and boats works too. Can be set to only work with buses and taxis.
-- Unstuck-key. Teleports your vehicle to the closest path node nearby, which can be in water, a small path on land or an asphalt road. If already on a path/road, teleports to an asphalt road. If already on asphalt, teleports to asphalt close by. Huge planes teleports to the desert airport. If no player vehicle exists at all, you will be teleported instead.
-- Teleports your vehicle a small distance up on land when it gets into water. This option works like the above feature called "Unstuck key".
-- Options for no collision between your vehicle and peds and/or peds vehicles. (Not activated/on by default). This allows you to pass through peds and their vehicles with your own vehicle without collisions.
-- Spawn random vehicles option (not fully activated/on by default).
-- Increase and decrease of the engines power with two keys. A negative value makes the vehicle go slower than normal (0).
-- Consequences When Crashing option (not activated/on by default).
-- Option to switch vehicles instantly by driving into one (not activated/on by default).
-- Inactivate/activate the mod with a key.
-- Visual effects and sounds options for random horn sounds, particle FX effects, firework and flares when interacting with the vehicle horn (not activated/on by default).
-- Music options on/off for flight music (and radio automatically on when entering plane or helicopter, however this is off by default and flight music is on), police wanted music and police scanner radio (police wanted music and police scanner set to off by default).
-- Support for Xinput controller (e.g. Xbox 360 pad). Needs to be activated in the configuration file that comes with the mod in order to use.
-- The level of violence can be customized to your preferences. For example you can change these values (if invincible is set to off) for the player, ped and/or vehicles: bulletProof, fireProof, explosionProof, collisionProof, meleeProof. Only for vehicles: strong, wheels can break, tyres can burst, can be visibly damaged, engine can degrade.
-- Other features/ options that can be set to on or off:
Invincible options, police ignore player, everyone ignore player, clear player wanted level, clear area of cops, player can't be hassled by gangs, player noise multiplier, can't be dragged out, player stick to vehicle, pedestrians vehicles disappear underground to avoid collisions, block melee with animation, wont create random cops, can't be targeted, clear ped blood damage, fix windows while inside vehicle, can't fly through windscreen, set maximum vehicle speed for player and police, disable player combat with firearms and melee, vehicle light multiplier and more.
All peds are invincible by default, on foot and in vehicles. You can't run them over and they can't ragdoll. They will just move out of the way. They are bulletProof, fireProof, explosionProof, collisionProof and meleeProof.
More features and info in the in the configuration file that comes with the mod.
Installation
You need the latest version of the tool Script Hook V by Alexander Blade in order for this mod to work.
Open the the .zip file with file explorer. Copy FamilyFriendlyFreeRoaming 2.x.asi and FamilyFriendlyFreeRoaming.ini into your GTA5 folder where your GTA5.exe is located. Play the game in story mode. Remove the mod by removing the asi file. Always use the latest configuration file that comes with the mod (FamilyFriendlyFreeRoaming.ini) or make sure it's updated by checking the changelog.
In order for the mod to work with the default settings you need to use a game save file and I highly recommend using this 100% completed game save in order to remove violence and have everything unlocked.
Copy the save game file into this folder (or similar): C:\Users\YourWindowsUsername\Documents\Rockstar Games\GTA V\Profiles\5417B236 You can rename the file if you want, to something between SGTA50000 and SGTA50015 i.e. 16 game saves can be recognized by the game and if you already have a game save with the name SGTA50000 for example you can rename it to SGTA50001 or whatever you want up to SGTA50015.
If you're not getting the save file above to work you can try this starter game save instead and see if that works better.
The mod is activated by default. If you do not install the .ini file, the mod will use default settings which are set to about the same as the default .ini file i.e max no violence. The inactivation key is also disabled. It should work fine but nearly all testing has only been done using the .ini file. Have that in mind when you decide to play without it. You can still report bugs if you find any while not using the .ini file.
If you're having problems, please use the comment section and give me a notification by starting your comment with @R3QQ.
Old version of the mod (2.4)
Note that you can be banned if you try to use mods in multiplayer (GTA Online). "Script hook closes GTA V when player goes in multiplayer" so this doesn't happen by mistake when it comes to scrips like this.
How to update to a new version of the mod
Replace the old FamilyFriendlyFreeRoaming x.asi file with the new one. Check the changelog here below in the description for changes in the .ini file. Add these to your FamilyFriendlyFreeRoaming.ini file. You can also just replace your configuration file with the new one.
How to make changes in the configuration file
With the mod comes the file called FamilyFriendlyFreeRoaming.ini. As stated in the installation instruction, this file goes into your GTA5 folder where your GTA5.exe is located. Just like the mod itself. The file can be opened and edited just like a text file but you might have to right click on it and click open as. You can use any text editor, like notepad.
The .ini file is read from continuously by this mod and so when you make changes in it and save it, these changes will take effect when you tab back into the game. There is no need to restart anything. Just go Alt + Tab while playing and switch to the .ini file, make some changes, save and Alt + Tab back into the game.
Further instructions are found inside the configuration file. Basically you just change between 0 (off) and 1 (on). For example you can change vehicle_can_be_damaged=0 to vehicle_can_be_damaged=1 to make vehicles be able to take damage.
How to make the game even less violent
-- Michael is slightly better than Franklin. Change to him with a trainers skin changer (the native trainer works). You can also switch by holding down the Alt key (from 2.5 this mod needs to be deactivated in order to show the character wheel). Do not play as Trevor if you want to avoid disturbing content.
-- You might want to consider turning these features on: consequences_when_crashing_into= (1 or 2)
max_vehicle_speed= (anything above -1 will be used, -1 means off)
-- Remove the intro video of the game.
-- Alternative loading screens.
-- With a trainer like Enhanced Native Trainer you can auto remove scratches on the vehicle etc. With the help of a menu you can customize your experience even further and for example also spawn all vehicle models, change the time and lock it and teleport. Note that some features exists in both my mod and these trainers.
-- Again, don't play as Trevor. :)
-- Turn off notifications under settings in the game menu.
-- You might want to consider disable more radio channels. Some are still on as default that are not so violent but to be completely sure you can instead use the self radio with your own music or Spotify. You can turn music off in the game settings, if you don't want to do it in the .ini file.
Play your own music instead of the radio: In the configuration file, under [Radio], set all channels to -1 except RADIO_19_USER which should be set to 1. Here's how you set up your user music channel. If you don't want any radio or music at all you can go ahead and change OFF=0 to OFF=1 in the config file.
-- The "Ultimate 100% Perfect Game Save" linked to above is now recommended to use. If you experience any problems, please report them in the comment section and then try this starter game save instead and see if that works better. Note that this save only got about 10% story completed which means that not everything in the game is unlocked in shops etc. But you can get those items with a trainer if you like, for example max out your vehicle. You can also only play as Franklin although that doesn't really matter and you can still change skin with a trainer if you like. The whole map is unlocked so it doesn't affect your exploring.
On the map there is a marker leading to a violent mission. Make sure to have set stop_cutscenes=1 (set as default), that way the mission will fail directly, before any violence occurs and the free roaming can continue.

Least Violent Activities (complex.com)
A few interesting mods
I have not tested all of them yet so I can't say for sure that they are all completely violent free.
JobsV [.NET]
Trucking Missions
Animal Ark Shelter
Vehicle Remote Central Locking (no violence, made by me)
Koenigsegg Agera R. A totally amazing car mod with many cars included in a dlc/addon
Open All Interiors. A must have.
Single Player Apartment
Super Yacht
Working Restaurants
Travel to North Yankton
Nice Fly
Los Santos Airlines
Premium Deluxe Motorsport Car Dealership
If your computer can handle it, consider installing a graphics enhancer mod from this site. It really makes it so much more fun!
I didn't get any FPS drop while using this setup:
1. ENB
2. VisualV, use the mod package in OpenIV
3. "The package called "ReShade + SweetFX 2.0". Only worked for me when installing manually, that is
moving Sweet.fx, ReShade.fx, ReShade64.dll and the SweetFX folder into the GTA V folder."
4. Presets
I like game brightness at about 40-50% with this.
Not yet implemented/ todo list
-- Remove more inappropriate pedestrian models if any are found (although pretty sure all are gone by now).
-- With 1.1 all speech sounds are suppressed. With the help of OpenIV you can replace sound files. They got nice guides for this. It require some time invested though. The ambient sound files are in "GTA V/x64/audio/sfx S_". Normal male peds are in S_FULL_AMB_M and females in S_FULL_AMB_F
Players are inside S_MISC.
-- Maybe an unlockable menu to make it easier for those who makes changes in the configuration file often.
-- Your feedback.

3. The player always gets teleported to a new spawned car or motorbike when pressing the key.
-- New feature called Consequences When Crashing. With crashing means crashing into vehicles and peds. In the .ini consequences_when_crashing_into set to 0 means no consequences (default). 1 means engine stops and needs to be "fixed" (hotwired). 2 means more of the same as 1.

-- Weapons are now removed from the player by default. Get them back and usable by setting (works while playing): remove_all_player_weapons=0 and disable_all_firing_and_melee=0 in the .ini file and save it (scroll up to "How to make changes in the configuration file" for more info). The player also gets back all weapons when deactivating the mod with the key.

-- Peds should no longer not give up trying to get inside the players vehicle when the horn is used and not everyone can fit inside. This could happen when a game save was loaded while inside the game already.

A value related to falling didn't work in all situations so I had to change it. I noticed this when trying the mod on another computer. It should work now.
- 2.3
-- Performance optimization.
-- Changed default value of speech_sounds to the new value -40. -40 means same as -30 (no scripted conversations) except scripted conversations are allowed when inside a taxi. This is to avoid for example preaching soapboxers but still hear the communication with the central. Old default value was -10.
- 2.4 Video of some features
-- Peds can now skydive and fly parachute from players helicopter or plane. Minimum hight is 50 meters above ground.
-- Improved change vehicle features like change_to_closest_vehicle. Added support for quadbikes, bicyles, helicopters, planes and boats . Cars and motorbikes already worked. The finding of the closest vehicle is also more accurate now.
-- Added 3 new values to the configuration file.
Under [Player_Options]:
max_distance_to_new_vehicle=100
;A new vehicle will only be looked for within the distance (in meters).
;
new_vehicle_max_height_over_ground=100
;If a vehicle, for example a helicopter or a plane is above this height it will be ;ignored. This value needs to be lower or equal to ;max_distance_to_new_vehicle.
Under [Pedestrian_Options]:
max_distance_to_ground_to_use_parachute=250
;Peds wont use their parachutes until they reach this altitude (in meters) or ;lower. Needs to be higher than 50.
-- Removed ways the player could use melee when disable_all_firing_and_melee is set to 1.
-- Improved disable_all_firing_and_melee. The player can no longer shoot with vehicle weapons.
-- Improved remove_all_ped_weapons. Ped pilots (not including the player) are no longer able to fly the military fighter jet called Lazer in the area of Fort Zancudo. This is because they shoot at the player. There seems to still be a script from the game which causes random explosions without any source if you fly inside the airspace of the fort.
-- Improved bussing_peds_with_horn. Peds should no longer keep running after players vehicle without entering it.
-- Fixed reset issues.
-- Various minor improvements.
- 2.5
-- Improved remove_all_ped_weapons - The army base Fort Zancudo no longer creates random explosions when flying over it. Thanks to Unknown_Modder.
-- Improved clear_player_wanted_level - Full access to Fort Zancudo and Los Santos International Airport. This means no wanted stars. Thanks to Unknown_Modder.
-- Fixed issue with fleeing peds which happend in some situations.
-- Peds can now be bussed even when the option to make everyone friendly and not flee is off.
-- Now ignores undrivable cars etc. when finding the closest vehicle. new_vehicle_max_height_over_ground in the .ini file should be 100000 instead of 100 as default. Also, this value is not dependent of max_distance_to_new_vehicle as it's said in the file. This will be changed in the next update but it's easy to change the values to what you want yourself now already.
-- Updated the weapon list used for reset and removal with the new weapons from the latest game update.
-- New ini values under [Player]:
can_switch_player=0
;Mainly to prevent trevor from being used.
;
can_use_phone=1
;To prevent showing email, text messages, Internet and contacts when set to 0.
;But this also disables the ability to quick save and take photos.
-- remove_all_player_weapons under [Player_Options] changed to 2 as default: flash light and golf club are allowed.
-- Added new values related to termination of disturbing game scripts to the configuration file in a new section:
[Native_Scripts]
;1 means no change. 0 means terminate and keep it off. A game save needs to be reloaded after
;changing some of these before effect happens.
;
app_internet=0
;Disables the webbrowser when set to 0.
;
app_textmessage=1
;If set to 0, the phone might freeze when getting a message.
;
app_contacts=0

;
disturbing_player_scenes=0

-- The 100% completed game save is now preferred and recommended to use.
- 2.5.1
Two changes in the .ini file:
-- Recent game updates seems to have disabled the feature called fix_windows under [Both_Options]. It is now set to 0 instead of 1. There could be more errors related to Rockstars changes to the game. Please report if you find any.
-- new_vehicle_max_height_over_ground in the .ini file should be 100000 instead of 100 as default. Also, this value is not dependent of max_distance_to_new_vehicle as it's said before in the file.
