After you sign in, Rageon scans your game by itself. Open Settings only if your game is not in the default Steam folder or you want to add mods, a server, or another language.

Watch the first scan

Rageon reads the saved GTA V folder or, the first time, C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Grand Theft Auto V. The status bar shows the progress.

If the scan ends in a red Error: …, the folder is wrong or is not a GTA V Legacy installation. Continue below.

Choose the GTA V folder

Optional steps

  • Mod folders. Under Directories, click Add to read folders with loose .rpf files, models, and textures together with the game. Their content wins over the base game. Turn on Watch to rescan when files change. See Settings: App.
  • A FiveM server. In the Bridge tab, click Add and choose the server folder. See Settings: Bridge.
  • Language. Language offers English (US), Português (Brasil), and Español. The button becomes Save and reload. See Change the language.
Close discards unsaved changes without asking, and so does clicking outside the dialog.
Next, open Browse assets or press Ctrl+P. The cache that Rageon builds is managed in Settings: Cache.

Troubleshooting

The scan failed. Check GTA V folder and the folders under Directories, then click Save and scan. GTA V Enhanced is not supported; see Requirements.
A folder with Watch on changed, so Rageon scans again. Turn Watch off for that folder to stop it.
