ScriptHookVPy – Python Scripting for GTA V 1.01
Version 1.01 – Critical Bug Fix & Auto-Install
Apology
I’ve read all the comments and want to sincerely apologize! Version 1.00 worked on my machine, so I didn’t realize there was a critical crash issue affecting most users. The problem was that the standard python311.dll has dependencies that conflict with GTA V.
What’s Fixed
– FIXED: Game crash on startup – Now uses Python Embedded instead of standard Python
– FIXED: DLL dependency conflicts – All required DLLs are now properly isolated
– FIXED: “KERNELBASE.dll exception” – The main crash issue is resolved
– NEW: Automatic Python download – No manual file copying needed!
New Features
– Auto-installer – First launch automatically downloads Python 3.11.9 Embedded
– No manual setup – Just drop the .asi file and run!
– Better logging – More detailed error messages in ScriptHookVPy.log
– Smarter file detection – Checks for all required files before starting
Installation
Extract all files from the archive to your GTA V folder and you’re done!
If you want auto-download instead (no Python files in archive):
– Install ScriptHookV
– Copy ScriptHookVPy.asi to your GTA V folder
– Launch the game – Python will download automatically on first run
– Create pythons/ folder and add your .py scripts
What Changed Technically
– Uses Python Embedded version (isolated, no system dependencies)
– Replaced deprecated Python 3.11 API calls with PyConfig
– Added automatic download & extraction from python.org
– Better DLL search path handling
– Improved error handling and logging
Important
– Delete old python311.dll if you had version 1.00!
– Check ScriptHookVPy.log if something goes wrong
