I’m actually starting to get bored and really getting an itch for hilarious mods to fuck around with. I barely even started doing the side missions. There’s one that.. seems bugged out. It’s one I’m doing as Trevor, for this guy to deal with a rival of his.
I took down all the For Sale signs (with cars). I stopped the guy’s car (with more cars), and I can’t get past the ‘Closing the Deal’ side mission. I’m wondering if it’s the fact I used mods, it isn’t advancing. Either that or I’m not doing something to advance.
Anyway, the reason I’m bored is, I’ve been waiting like I said above, for any good, hilarious mods to fuck around with. No one (that I’m following) is doing any GTA V mod videos. Perhaps they’re also scared the next cool mod might give viruses and don’t want to be responsible for the cleanup. This is what I’m thinking, and it’s probably the reason. If I was a Youtuber, I’d probably would do the same thing.
There’s one mod I can’t stop thinking about, and I really wish what happened with it, didn’t. Aka… the Angry Planes mod being filled with viruses.
See, I saw Al’s video yesterday of it (plus Riot Mode), and he was having so much fun. You’re seeing all of these planes flying around in the air, and it looked like Just Cause 2 Multiplayer. And if you get in a vehicle (better in a plane), the planes will actually chase after you and attempt to commit suicide by ramming into you. Some of them even use their missiles.
There was this scene where he’s talking about Riot Mode, how he likes to run these people over when on the freeways. As he’s talking, you hear the jet sounds of a 747 getting really close to him. He looks behind him and all he sees is the many wheels of said plane right behind him. That was fucking INTENSE (and also hilarious)!!
Sadly… his next video, he talks about how that.. not so hilarious and a NoClip mod… have viruses in them and how to remove them. I.. wow. Who would want to do that? I would had LOVED to use that mod.. if it wasn’t for the viruses. :/
There is a new mod that just popped up last night called ‘Planes Hails‘, that claims wants to bring back the Angry Planes mod (but with no adware). No one believes him, including myself. But really, it’s nothing like what I’ve seen. This one has random planes falling from the sky, instead of fly around and run into scenery, eachother, or yourself.
Someone (in the comments section of the mod) also claims that they have a non-adware version of the Angry Planes mod (from a trusted Reddit user), but won’t give out the link due to keeping the mod from circulating (and risk it getting viruses). Though personally, I wish I didn’t know that as it’ll make me want to create an account just to ask him if I could have the link.
Why bother telling us about it if he won’t give the link out? To annoy potential assholes that want to do harm to our computers (or steal our identity/credit cards/bank accounts)?
This is a sad world we live in, when we can’t even trust mods from GTA V.
Anyway, I’m actually glad I did get the PC version of GTA V when I did. Because back when that mod was out, I would had gotten it too (due to how cool it looked), and been really pissed off at the author while trying to remove the virus.
I just hope what happened to said author, was justice.
EDIT: I found “A” link to it… but I don’t want to trust it. It’s from a website called ‘peniscorp.com’. Yep, that seems legit alright. Can’t even bother to post it on a more legit site, could you? Claims it has a cleaned version of Angry Planes, and gives instructions on what to watch out for. Not giving out the link in here.
I just ran the URL through virustotal.com, a legit site that scans every known file and website on the Internet for any viruses. No issues with the website, and the site was scanned yesterday. Still extremely leery of trying it.
I think I’m going to play it safe and wait for this ‘Planes Hails’ mod to hopefully take the shape of Angry Planes. I can’t wait to be all “HOLY SHIT!!” seeing the Cargo Plane from that one Single Player mission, following me in the air while I’m on the interstate on a motorcycle!! Fucking epic, bro.
EDIT2: Added entry for the ‘Planes Hails’ mod in my GTA V Modding blog post.
