1. Description
Advanced Custom Blips lets you add and manage map custom blips exactly how you want.
What started in v1.0 as a basic script is now completely rebuilt in v2.0 with advanced features and flexibility, full NativeUI integration, and real-time blip preview. You can now create, edit, copy, and teleport to custom blips entirely in-game — no manual INI editing required (unless you prefer it). The mod also comes with predefined locations of gas stations, fire departments, police departments, markets, medical centers, ATMs, and metro stations. Each category can be toggled on or off individually via the in-game NativeUI menu (all categories are toggled off by default).

What started in v1.0 as a basic script is now completely rebuilt in v2.0 with advanced features and flexibility, full NativeUI integration, and real-time blip preview. You can now create, edit, copy, and teleport to custom blips entirely in-game — no manual INI editing required (unless you prefer it). The mod also comes with predefined locations of gas stations, fire departments, police departments, markets, medical centers, ATMs, and metro stations. Each category can be toggled on or off individually via the in-game NativeUI menu (all categories are toggled off by default).
Explanation of INI sections (if you still want to add blips manually):
- Blip Name: The blip’s name. Example: Clucking Bell Farms
- Blip Icon: The icon/texture (reference here). Example: 273 or radar_chop
- Blip Size: Scale/size multiplier (1.0 = default). Example: 0.8
- Blip Color: Color (white = default) (reference here). Example: 1 or Red
- Flashing State: Enable/disable blinking effect. Example: OFF
- Flash Interval: Blink speed in milliseconds (higher = slower). Example: 1500
- Short Range State: Shows only when nearby (better explained in above image). Example: ON
- X: The "X" coordinate of the blip. Example: -80.4800
- Y: The "Y" coordinate of the blip. Example: 6243.0698
- Z: The "Z" coordinate of the blip. Example: 66.8366
Hotkeys (Configurable):
- Toggle Coordinates Key:
- Function: Toggles the on-screen display of the player's current coordinates (X, Y, Z).
- Default Key: F1
- Reload Blips Key:
- Function: Reloads the blip data from the "Advanced Custom Blips.ini" file, applying any changes made to it without restarting the script.
- Default Key: F2
- Toggle Blip Visibility Key:
- Function: Hides or shows all the custom blips that have been loaded from the INI file on the map.
- Default Key: F3
- Open Menu Key:
- Function: Opens the main NativeUI menu for the script, allowing access to settings, adding blips, and managing existing ones.
- Default Key: F10
Important:
- Use "." (dot) for decimal numbers, not "," (comma).
- Flash Interval has no effect if Flashing State is set to OFF.
- Blip name cannot be empty, contain only whitespace, or include an "_" (underscore).
- For manual editing: all blip fields (e.g., Blip Name, Blip Color, Flashing State) and their values are case-insensitive.
- This script has only been tested on the Legacy version of GTA V. I cannot guarantee its functionality on the Enhanced version of GTA V (it may or may not work as intended), as it was not tested there and won't get tested by me.
- If you ever get an "access denied" error, here’s how to fix it: Right-click on the "file the error occurred" on → Select and press 'Properties' → In the 'General' tab → Look for 'Attributes' → Make sure the 'Read-only' checkbox is unchecked. (See image above for a better explanation)
- Don’t hesitate to suggest features, improvements, bug, or anything else about this script mod. I’ll be more than happy to read your suggestions.
2. Features
- NativeUI menu for adding, editing, copying, deleting, and teleporting to custom blips in-game
- Real-time preview blip in front of your player before saving
- Configurable hotkeys (coordinates display, reload blips, open menu, and toggle visibility of custom blips)
- Predefined locations of gas stations, fire departments, police departments, markets, medical centers, ATMs, and metro stations. Each category can be toggled on or off individually via the in-game NativeUI menu (all categories are toggled off by default).
- Support for both INI manual editing and in-game GUI
- Improved error handling and stability
3. Requirements
- Grand Theft Auto V Legacy (as mentioned above)
- Script Hook V
- Script Hook V .NET (nightly)
- .NET Framework 4.8
- NativeUI
4. Installation
- Ensure that Script Hook V, Script Hook V .NET (nightly), .NET Framework 4.8, and NativeUI are properly installed
- Extract all files into your "scripts" folder (create it if missing, using the exact same name) in your GTA V Legacy directory
- Add blips via the in-game menu (open menu with the F10 key) or by editing Advanced Custom Blips.ini
5. Known Bugs & Mod Conflicts
- I have tested with 100+ custom blips without issues. Your custom blips will work fine. However, blips created by other mods
may lose their names (the icons still show but without names), and some vanilla GTA blips may completely disappear if too
many blips are active at once (sometimes all vanilla blips). If you add more than 170 custom blips, their names may disappear
and the notification for the number of blips, if enabled, does not show.
- For some unknown reason, when using too many scripts and then toggling the coordinates display system, the coordinates may not show.
6. FAQs
- Q: I found a bug(s) and/or mod conflict(s). How can I report it?
A: Contact me directly through the mod’s page (officially on the GTA5Mods website) and include the contents of "Advanced Custom Blips Log.txt" if the file exists in the "scripts" folder.
- Q: Can I add blips manually?
A: Yes, just copy an INI section, edit its values, and give the new section a new name.
- Q: Can I use custom textures/icons?
A: No, only built-in GTA V Legacy blip icons are supported.
- Q: Will you add support for Enhanced version of GTA V?
A: As discussed, it may or may not work — it has not been tested there and won't get tested by me. But if many users report that it does work as intended, I will update the mod page to confirm it is functioning on this version.
- Q: Does this mod affect performance (FPS)?
A: Minimal to no impact. The mod is optimized and lightweight. Feel free to report any performance issues.

After pressing F10, nothing happens
Can the hotkeys be disabled in case I don't want then mapped?
