gta5-mods:
gta5-mods.com is for me one of the best, but also the most popular. You will access the site via the link at the beginning of this paragraph.
On this site you will find ALL types of mods available on GTA V! Whether it's vehicles, land, air, sea... maps, houses, characters, and a lot of scripts.
The site is very active and offers a large number of mods that are added by the community every day. Anyone can add their creations by registering on the site. Each mod submission is subject to review by the administrator and will be made public a few minutes / hours after its upload. A big positive point is the fact that each download page offers a maximum number of 15 photos! This allows you to see a vehicle from all angles for example.
The site allows a very nice comment and rating system. Each user with an account is free to comment on any mod as well as give it a rating that is counted in number of stars and ranging from 0 to 5 stars.
Other very useful features are available, such as liking a mod, following future updates that the author will make to his mod, adding a mod to his favorites, it will then be placed in a favorites menu and will be easily found. The share button is also available and there is the possibility to follow future mod uploads from a user by clicking on the button follow on his profile. A donation system is also possible.
And finally, everyone's profile is customizable, you can add all your social network links, change your avatar, your nationality...
And of course the site is available in all languages!
gta inside:
GTAInside is a second major modding site. While it does not only offer content for GTA V, it offers content for all GTAs.
Just like gta5-mods, it has a lot of possibilities, I will not repeat everything that was said in the paragraph dedicated to gta5-mods, but they are almost the same mods that are published there. One of the only small differences is that there are fewer mods than on gta5-mods.
On this site, the advantage is that you are not forced to upload your mods to see them appear. Others will take care of it for you. It happens to me very often to find my vehicles while I have only posted them on gta5-mods, what is great is that the mod will appear under your name even if it is not you who posted it, and you will find part of the photos published on gta5-mods and of course your description.
Each mod can be rated with a score from 0 to 10 stars. Paypal donation button is also present. The comment system is similar to gta5-mods.
One feature that is available on this site is the display of the size of the file that you are about to download.
The site is available in English or German.
gtamodding:
gtamodding is a French-speaking 100% modding site. It also offers mods for all GTAs. When I say French-speaking 100%, I'm not just half-hearted, ALL is translated, even if the mod comes from an American, the description will be in French.
The site offers a rating system ranging from 0 to 5 stars. Comments are also available but much less optimized than on other sites, because we do not receive a notification when someone leaves a comment under our file.
The site also displays the size of the mods on the download page.
Other pages are available on this site that are not necessarily on all the others. You can find a page of articles, tutorials and a FAQ.
BAROTEAM:
Visit BAROTEAM is a download site but also a French-speaking 100% modding team of which I am a member. A forum dedicated to modding is also present on the site.
The big advantage of visiting this site is being able to find exclusives or previews that are only available on this site.
An instant chat is available at the top of the page for any help requests or simply to chat!
GTA all:
GTA all offers mods for all GTAs, it is available in French, English, Russian, Portuguese, Spanish and German.
This site, like GTAInside, allows you to find your mods automatically because they are added by other people.
Under the description of each mod you can find some rather useful information that is not on all sites, such as the vehicle replaced by it, the brand, the model, the type of transmission (2 or 4 wheel drive), the type of bodywork...
grandtheftauto5:
grandtheftauto5.fr is once again a French-speaking 100% site. It is one of the most complete sites because it offers many other functions in addition to mod downloads. You can find there for example guides, images, videos, analysis, information... as well as a very complete forum.
The downside is that you'll find a lot less mods than on other sites, but also the fact that there's only one image on the download page for each mod, which makes it a little harder to get an idea of the mod before downloading it.
The rating from 0 to 5 stars is present, however there is no possibility to leave comments.
The file size is also not indicated.
On the other hand, a good piece of information that you can't find everywhere is the complete list of all the additional mods needed to use the one you want to download.
