Game requirements

Building requirements

• Visual Studio 2022

The solution builds two files:

• Gears.asi, the actual script. This goes in Grand Theft Auto V's root folder.
• WheelSetup.exe, which is a companion program for debugging wheel inputs. Can also write configurations.

Scripting API

Some convenience functions are exposed by the script.

Check ManualTransmission.h for available API functions.
