I might be way too early to this but has anyone tried it on switch? I'd love to be able to add cars and clothes like we could in the mobile version

it's already a .pak. Shouldn't it already possibly work?

Not all PC mod will work on the switch, mainly the music/sound mod, and texture mod

naruto mod works on switch too

LOL i like this mode can anyone tell how to install this mod on switch? in what directory?

the mods (.pak files) belong into `/atmosphere/contents/010065A014024000/romfs/Gameface/Content/Paks/~mods/`
pakfiles have a load order, thats why you see a number as prefix. they also (should) have the suffix "_P" but apparently it works without the suffix too.

Apparently the game can load .uasset/.ubulk files too if you place them in the right location but i couldnt get that to work on the switch (couldnt really test it either)

Anything in Paks is loaded. But adding it to subfolder in Paks give a warranty that it will be loaded after original PAKs. _p or _0_P is needed if game disables loading additional PAKs that are not patches. But in GTA that's not the case. So only what matters is alphabetical order with subfolders included. Any subfolder name will work.

I’ve also tried using an uncompiled uasset, but it doesnt seem to work on the switch…. but when I compiled it to .pak and put it into ~mods folder, it immediately works

In UE4 when enabling PAKs they must specify in code folders that won't need to be packed to use in UFS mode. Sometimes you can find them listed in configs. Adding additional folders to those configs won't work as they are already hardcoded in main.

Obviously the ubulk files need to be in the correct location.
BTW: the file they extracted doesnt exist in my gamefiles. i think they cut content for the switch version and thats why some mods dont work (speculation)

true i tried to gun shots sound mod and when i shot the gun in sa i didn't give any sounds anymore lol

 

[SaltySwitch]

A mod I would like to see for SA is a restoration of the original character models. I imagine this could help slightly with performance.

It would be insignificant.

I know RainFix pak does work w SA, but does anyone have a list of other .pak files that are confirmed to work with switch?

these are confirmed working without bugs.
There are more that will likely work but i have no interest in testing better jeans mods and such.
