LorePlates – Add-on Plates for Leonida, Liberty, Alderney, and North Yankton V2.2
The default San Andreas license plates in GTAV are based on the standard issue California plates from the past sixty years. LorePlates is a collection of additional license plates from the same timespan, for the four other fictional states in the GTA Universe: Leonida, Liberty, Alderney, and North Yankton. (based on Florida, New York, New Jersey, and North Dakota respectively). Each plate in this pack is a painstaking recreation of a real-life counterpart, combined with a conscious effort to emulate Rockstar’s satire. If Leonida, Liberty, Alderney, and North Yankton were fully accessible in GTAV, then LorePlates is an estimation of the kind of plates Rockstar would make for these regions.
REQUIREMENTS
– You will need OpenIV and a trainer to use this mod.
– Simple Trainer
INSTALLATION
1) Start up OpenIV.
2) Go to Tools –> Package Installer, and select one of the two .oiv installers.
– HD will install plates with 1024×512 pixel resolution. It also updates the original 6 plates to HD versions. I recommend this version because the image compression is far less noticeable.
– Standard Res will install plates with 256×128 pixel resolution, matching the ones from the vanilla game.
– if you want to try the other version, just run the other installer and it will overwrite the previous files.
– IF YOU HAVE OTHER LICENSE PLATE MODS INSTALLED: use the manual installation (in the aptly named ‘manual installation’ folder)
3) Start up GTA5 and enjoy! Use your trainer to change your vehicle’s license plates to the new ones.
EXTRAS
Add-ons:
– Five “Robada” plates based off Nevada plates. Robada is not Rockstar canon but is a widely accepted among fans as a name for lore Nevada. (v 2.2)
– Ultra-rusty version of the black (1963) San Andreas plate (suggestion by Dock-6).
– Yellow San Andreas plate, based off of the California plates from 1956.
– 2003 Leonida plates for the three confirmed counties in GTA 6: Vice-Dale, Leonard, and Kelly. Based off of the Florida plates that have the county name on the bottom.
Replacements:
– Rusty versions of many of the older 60’s and 70’s plates made for this mod. These were originally installed by default because I thought the rust made these plates look more interesting, but due to popular demand (and a change of opinion) they have been relegated to extras.
– Non-rusty version of the vanilla Yankton plate.
– More-accurate version of the 80’s San Andreas plate, which more-closely resembles the 1982 California plate than the default one that Rockstar made.
