Grand Theft Auto V Platform Switcher

If you're one of those GTA V or Online fans out there, then you know that sometimes there are slight differences from launcher to launcher and game iteration to game iteration.

You might want to use the Steam version for VR mods, for example, while the Rockstar launcher variant for a clean online experience. Since installing the game over and over again is not that practical, maybe an app could sort that out for us all. Grand Theft Auto V Platform Switcher is exactly that program.

The application might seem simple to you, and in terms of looks and feel it is. The real deal is tied to how one app can turn a single installation folder into multiple variants that work with each launcher.

Luckily, the developer has provided many tutorials for any user out there to pursue in an attempt to enjoy the original functionality this app was intended for. You will be asked to install .NET Framework 4.8.1 for the exploit to work as intended.

This app also displays the various versions of the game depending on your particular selected launcher and also points out what variant is now set up. Thus, if you see a RGL mark next to the current platform, that means that your Rockstar Games Launcher is the one in full functioning form.

Even if you do end up with a couple of errors, keep in mind the program also deals with those by assigning specific actions. The user can launch the various fix types simply by clicking the appropriate button.

Although not necessary, I found this program to be useful, especially since I use two particular GTA installations, one dealing with VR mods I added to it and the other being clean as a whistle for Online use.

Grand Theft Auto V Platform Switcher is indeed a cool application to deal with if you are a GTA V modder that wants to keep track of the various created virtual playgrounds.
