OpenIV is a multi-purpose editor and archive manager for RAGE engine-based games such as GTA V, GTA IV/EFLC and Max Payne 3, developed by OpenIV Team. Development of this tool began shortly after the Xbox 360 release of GTA IV. The first public version was released on December 28, 2008. Since version 1.0 OpenIV also supports another game made by Rockstar Games - Max Payne 3. Since version 2.0 OpenIV became one of the world's first tools to work with GTA V's new file formats. OpenIV won the Best Tool award in GTAForums Annual Awards 2016[1].

openFormats

The openFormats are a set of open, text-based, intermediate file formats that allows users to export/import GTA IV/EFLC and GTA V resources into different 3D modeling programs like 3DS Max. Currently you can import/export openFormats files into 3DS Max with GIMS IV (GTA IV) or GIMS Evo (GTA V). The formats are similar in concept to .WSO files used in The Sims Resource Workshop, being that the latter also implements an intermediate format for easier resource editing.

Tools and Services

ASI Manager

The tool named �ASI Manager� allows you to easily install or uninstall ASI Loader and ASI plugins for GTA V.

OpenIV.ASI

The OpenIV.ASI gives you ability to keep original GTA V files safe and put mods into special �mods� folder. Just put archive (for example, x64a.rpf) you want to mod into �mods� folder and made changes in that copy. OpenIV.ASI will force game load your archives form �mods� folder. In addition, if you want to switch back to original files just remove OpenIV.ASI and ASI Loader using ASI Manager.
