Gameconfig Mods Aren't Created Equal

Which gameconfig and heap adjuster are the best? No simple answer. Try any of these combinations.

1. F7YO GameConfig with Heap Adjuster

2. F7YO GameConfig with Heap Limit Adjuster

3. Dilapidated GameConfig with Heap Adjuster

4. Dilapidated GameConfig with Heap Limit Adjuster

Pack File Limit Adjuster

Option 4 is the only one that works for me after Tuner Update. Nothing else works. And for the very first time, i had to install the packfile mod as well. And note I"m using the heap adjuster that was NOT recommended for my gameconfig choice.

Of course those aren't the only gameconfig mods available, just the most downloaded and most popular at the time of writing this article. So you can experiment. For more advanced users you can also edit the values and try what works best for you.

With respect to the Packfile limit adjuster, there is only one available at time of writing.

Along with the Heap and Packfile limit adjusters, another custom file is required to create the GTA5 Stability Trinity. Unlike the first two, this isn't a plugin, it's a modded version of the vanilla gameconfig.xml file from the game folder.

Additionally, unlike the limit adjuster plugins, it can be edited because it is a text file. However there isn't any reason to modify this file unless you have stability/crashing issues - and you definitely need to know what you're doing.
