Tired of GTA 5's vehicles blowing up too easily?
The Vehicle Explosion & Damage Control Mod ensures that vehicles become undriveable in a more realistic manner. Vehicles will only catch fire or explode under extreme conditions, allowing for a far more immersive experience.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Features:
Engine Health Check:
The mod monitors the engine health of all vehicles (including air vehicles) in the game including NPC vehicles. When a vehicle's engine health drops below a certain threshold, the engine becomes inoperable and the vehicle begins to smoke.
Fire Prevention:
Say goodbye to spontaneous combustion. This mod keeps your vehicle from catching fire due to regular damage, making it smoke instead and then becomes undriveable. And yes, this feature is optional.
Explosive & High-Impact Exceptions:
While regular damage won't set your car ablaze, certain extreme actions can still make it explode. Features like shooting the petrol tank or fuel ignition can be toggled on or off via the ini file.
Improved Realism:
With more nuanced damage responses, this mod adds a new layer of realism to GTA 5, making gunfights and car crashes more realistic and engaging.
Enhanced Realism for Air Vehicles:
The mod also extends its features to helicopters and planes. Control how these air vehicles behave during critical events like low altitude or collisions, all customizable via the ini file.
Ped/NPC Damage During Car Crashes:
Choose to enable or disable player or NPC damage during vehicle crashes for a more challenging gameplay.
Screen Blur Effect on Impact:
Experience a heightened sense of impact with a customizable screen blur effect when damaged in a car crash. Adjust its intensity and fade duration to suit your style.
Seatbelt Feature:
Wear a seatbelt to reduce damage taken during crashes. A toggleable feature that also comes with associated sound effects and notifications for better immersion.
Customization Through INI:
While the in-game UI facilitates on-the-fly adjustments, 'VehicleExplosionAndDamageControl.ini' grants a deeper level of customization and insight before you dive into the game. In the INI file, you’ll discover in-depth descriptions of each parameter, offering a meticulous level of control over your gameplay settings. To ensure your adjusted settings are applied, make any changes to the INI file prior to launching the game. Once in-game, utilize the UI for swift and convenient modifications as you play.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Additional Compatibility:
You can use this mod alongside my other mod 'Clean And Repair Anywhere' (https://www.gta5-mods.com/scripts/clean-repair-anywhere) to be able to repair the vehicle if it becomes undriveable.

1. Drag and drop the scripts folder into the GTA V main directory.

For those of you familiar with my previous modding work on GTA and other titles, you already know how much I value your feedback, support, and ideas. Every mod I create is essentially a community project, shaped and refined by your invaluable input. Rest assured, this community-driven approach is here to stay.
If you have any suggestions or feedback—big or small—please don't hesitate to share. I'll give it my all to make your ideas a reality, within the realms of possibility. Keep in mind that some things may not be feasible or may require an extensive amount of work. As a single parent juggling various responsibilities, my time is limited, but modding is a passion of mine and I invest as much free time as I can into it.
So thank you, once again, for your ongoing support and constructive suggestions. It's your engagement that truly brings these mods to life.
Alternative Throttle Control - Keyboards v0.1.3.1 how to install GTA v friend please tell me friend request me please 🥺
Hey @Babukarthik, I am not entirely sure what you mean, feel free to join our discord server and reach out to me there for any help or suggestions, I will respond a lot faster there as well.

Kind regards,
MickieFinn.
@MickieFinn all working except the seatbelt, using latest nightly shvdn, tried changing the control to some keys defined in enum control but no luck
Hey @mbahdokek, you will need to set EnablePedDamage=true to use the seatbelt feature, that's my fault I should have specified in the notes/ini, I will update it tonight or tomorrow to say this.
Kind regards,
MickieFinn
Hi, good mod, but there is a problem in single player, on the first raid on the jewelry store. franklin's motorcycle explodes just before you complete the mission.
i have raised the values, but it makes no difference, i don't know what i'm missing.
AirTimeRequired=10
EngineHealthLimit=4
EngineHealthAfterLimit=30
the mission can be completed without any problems if i deactivate the mod,
Thank you and have a nice day
Hey @hugos sorry for the long reply,
I do not get notifications unless you @ me.
So I have been taking a look at this bug today and managed to replicate it, I have fixed it.
Currently Franklins bike will still smoke however it will not explode, It looks as though Franklins bike smoking is part of the base game as this also happens without the mod which will be what was conflicting with the mod as we prevent the vehicle from smoking that badly to avoid explosions where as the game was forcing it into them values we are preventing.
Here is a video to show it is working and ill upload a fix to my discord later today.
If all goes well after more testing ill release it here later next week.

a beauty
@Michael21107 Thank you for the kind words and ongoing support Michael, it really means a lot!!
Kind regards,
Mickie.
@MickieFinn Yo is it possible to completly disable vehicle explosions but let engine damage be there? For example u hit helicopter with homing missile, it's engine disables but it doesnt explode.
@MickieFinn Can you please fix an issue that ruins this mod?
The issue is, when you shoot the tank of the car, the gas doesn't spill or the gas tank isn't damaged which doesn't
spill the gas in the car which ruins the fun. When you shoot a car at their gas stank the gas spills and you can shoot the
gas to set it on fire, but with this mod you can't. Can you please fix it? thank you in advance
Love it. Seems that tanks take about 20 rockets to destroy though. Any way we can configure that?
Hi, sorry, i'm fairly new to modding GTA. How do i actually find the .ini file and how do i change the mod's settings in-game?
@MickieFinn This mod cant works except outside the LS area, I compared the height of the UFO at Zancudo with the roof of the bank maze, and the vehicles exploding in LS. I also used the minigun and the results were the same but it had no effect outside LS. I used fresh without any mods except the hook script and the Menyoo trainer and tried with the native trainer, any suggestions?
I set "DisplayEngineHealth" to true. Then i passed the Los Santos area, the display went off, then i went back outside Los Santos its appeared again
Not work
Mod doesnt work at all, Vehicles arent exploding with any damage. I have 0% C keycode experience, im chaning stuff on the ini thing and nothing happens (chaning them with notepad and visualstudio then clciked save) open game and Nothing so ODD
How to make vehicles explode in any crash or damage? the max i can do is making it stop and turn on fire but they dont explode i dont know what im doing wrong or i cant be done????? help
Mostly seems to work tho does not seem to like NVE as regardless the car will engulf in flames tho not explode under gunfire. but sets people ablaze and the vehicle. Also Helis get blown up instantly still instead of an engine stall
@TheGreatWolf14 U got the solution?? i doubt anyone will reply to me.. i want vehicles to explode with any minor crash , did it but car just stops, burns and the end no instant explosion neither after.. This mod makes cars no explodable?
@Capitanmegaa so this mod makes it where gunfire wont blow a car up, adding realism. explosives will STILL blow up the vehicle however. just not gunfire unless u shoot the fuel tank
