In the vanilla game, crashing your car is usually just a minor annoyance, you either drive away or the NPC screams for a second before vanishing. This mod changes that completely. Crash Encounters transforms every fender bender into a dynamic, living world event. Depending on who you hit, you might deal with a driver begging for a payoff, a furious road-rager with a bat, a terrified witness dropping a briefcase of cash, or even a (flirty encounter that turns into a full mini-mission < Only if you enable, OFF By Default).Features
Universal SHVDN Compatibility: Built using raw GTA natives to ensure the mod is fully compatible with ScriptHookVDotNet3 Nightly 121 and all previous versions.
Overhauled Crash Detection (V0.2): (New!) No more random triggers. The mod now calculates the exact delta force of an impact. Minor taps result in quick “Dismissive” reactions, while high-speed wrecks can leave NPCs unconscious or trigger extreme road-rage.
The Fault System (V0.2): (New!) Using collision physics math, the mod now determines who is at fault. If an NPC rear-ends you or hits you while you’re stopped, they are at fault. You can demand compensation from them!
Dynamic Mood & Probability System: Every driver is different! Use the in-game menu or .ini to set the exact percentage chances for 9 different archetypes:
Angry & Sad: The standard experience. Pay them off for the damage or risk your reputation.
The Road-Rager: Fearless drivers who will hop out with a bat or pistol to settle the score.
The “Karen”: They wont fight, but they will stand there filming you while screaming for the police until you are “Busted.”
Gang Retaliation: Hit the wrong car and the whole crew jumps out with “Fearless” AI, calling for backup and engaging in a shootout.
The Drunk: They will stumble out with a custom drunk walk and bribe you with extra cash to keep the cops away.
Paranoid: A very rare encounter where the driver panics, drops a briefcase of money, and sprints away.
The Secret Scenario: (New!) A rare interaction with female drivers where they offer an “alternative” payment or you can still pay them.
Satisfaction System: Features a live UI progress bar. Build satisfaction by driving them around or parking in a quiet spot for a “good time.”
GPS Drop-offs: Once satisfied, take them to one of 15 real residential homes for a massive Reputation boost, or drop them off early for a smaller reward.
Advanced Reputation System: Your actions matter!
The “Bad Tax”: Have bad rep. NPCs will demand significantly more money for repairs.
Good Samaritan: High rep grants you major discounts, though the floor is never 0 (everyone wants their car fixed!).
Hit and Run: Fleeing the scene instantly tanks your rep and triggers a police search.
Insurance Fraud (Brake Checkers): Watch out! While driving, NPCs may occasionally pull in front of you and slam on their brakes to try and scam you for insurance money.
Intimidation & Robbery: Feeling villainous. If you aim your weapon at a driver during an interaction, you can rob them for their repair money, but expect a 2-star wanted level and a huge reputation hit.
Police Proximity Logic: If a police officer is within 40 meters when a crash occurs, the driver will immediately flag them down, and you will be busted before you can even explain.
Requirements
– ScripthookVDotNet3 Nightly
– LemonUI SHVDN3 (ONLY Required if you Enable Menu in .ini File)
Installation
– Install Script Hook V.
– Install ScripthookVDotNet 3 Nightly.
– Install LemonUI SHVDN3 (OPTIONAL) (put LemonUI.SHVDN3.dll inside your scripts folder) if you want to use the in-game menu.
Download this mod, extract it, and drop CrashEncounters.dll and CrashEncounters.ini into your scripts folder.
Press F7 (Default) in-game to open the mod menu if enabled.
Help & Troubleshooting
How do I use the menu: By default, the menu is OFF to save resources. Go into the CrashEncounters.ini and set Enabled = True under the [Menu] section. Ensure LemonUI is installed!
NPCs are not fighting back: Make sure you have not aimed your gun too early! Most drivers will panic if you aim a gun unless they are “Furious” or “Gang” members.
Payoff is too high: Your reputation might be low, or the car you hit was an expensive model. You can adjust the DamageMultiplier or Min/Max Payoff in the menu.
Changelog:
v0.4.1 (Latest)
Nightly Latest Fix: Fixed an issue With the Mod Working With the Latest Version of Nightly, as it had some new compiling changes in the SHVDN which conflicted with my Mod.
v0.4 (Latest)
Legacy & Enhanced Compatibility: Fixed crashes that could occur when using the mod on the Enhanced version of GTA V. Interactions like entering vehicles and collision checks are now stable across all supported ScriptHookVDotNet versions.
Customizable Controls: You can now remap the interaction buttons (Rob, Ride Along, Demand Pay) to any key or controller button you want directly in the .ini file. On-screen prompts will always display the correct button you have set.
Mission Compatibility: The mod now properly pauses itself during Rockstar missions and cutscenes, so random crash encounters will no longer interfere with story missions or heists.
Menu Toggle Fix: Fixed an audio glitch where opening the settings menu would play the UI sound multiple times rapidly. The menu now opens and closes cleanly every time.
Script Reload Cleanup: Fixed an issue where NPC blips could get permanently stuck on the minimap if scripts were reloaded mid-game. Everything now cleans up properly when the mod shuts down.
v0.3 (Latest)
Performance & Stability: Implemented tick-rate throttling for CPU optimization and an ‘Aborted’ memory failsafe to prevent stuck cameras or blips.
Cinematic Secret Scenario: Replaced the fade-to-black with a dynamic, low-angle cinematic camera outside the car. Added see-saw physics, scaling audio/dialogue intensity, a realistic 20-minute time skip, and overhauled the GPS drop-off logic with distance-filtered locations.
Fire, Rescue & Witnesses: Severe crashes resulting in death or fire now trigger witnesses to natively dispatch Ambulances and Firetrucks. Robberies in front of witnesses now trigger 911 calls.
Traffic Control: Active crash scenes now generate a 25-meter traffic roadblock, causing NPC drivers to naturally stop and wait instead of piling up.
Immersion Polish: Added fully synced hand-to-hand money exchange animations. Drunk drivers now ragdoll/pass out when robbed. Brake checkers aggressively blast their horn before slamming the brakes.
Total UI Overhaul: Completely rebuilt the LemonUI menu into 6 organized submenus, supporting live value tracking and dynamic slider descriptions for every single setting.
