Description

GTA6 Lock Pick System brings a GTA VI-inspired vehicle lock-picking system to GTA V Enhanced&Legacy single-player.

The mod adds a contextual Slim Jim interaction for locked parked vehicles, with custom keyboard/mouse and controller UI, directional lock-pick inputs, radial progress animations, and automatic input switching.

[Features]

GTA VI-inspired lock-picking system
One random directional input per lock-pick attempt
Custom mouse directional icons
Custom controller R-stick directional icons
Custom cleaned radial progress UI
Automatic keyboard/mouse and controller prompt switching
Interaction prompts only appear when close to and looking at the driver’s door
Ambient parked NPC vehicles are automatically locked

[Controls]

[Keyboard / Mouse]
E – Slim Jim
G – Smash Window
F – Check / try the locked door handle

[Controller]
Triangle / Y – Slim Jim
Circle / B – Smash Window

During the Slim Jim minigame, move the mouse or right stick in the direction shown on screen.

[Vanilla Break-In Behavior]

Smash Window uses GTA V’s native vehicle break-in system. Depending on the vehicle’s layout and entry animation set, GTA may use different break-in behavior.

Some lower vehicles may first use the locked-door / handle-forcing animation, while taller vehicles such as SUVs may break the window immediately.

This behavior is handled by GTA itself and is not a bug in the mod.

[Installation]

Install Script Hook V.
Install ScriptHookVDotNet Enhanced.
Copy the included scripts folder into your GTA V Enhanced main directory.
Merge it with your existing scripts folder if prompted.
