A ball. Very calm and relaxing. Beautiful. Please don't shoot them down. This balloon is not just a Blimp replace.
This is a beta version. I got tired of working on it all for myself and decided to release it as is for now. The mod is not feature-finished, but what's there and done is well polished already. Expect further updates.
Please leave your feedback, bug reports and support requests here in comments or in the mod's topic in our Discord server.
Features:
- The model made from scratch and optimized for game performance;
- A wide range of colorful livery designs;
- Realistic handling to make flying this aircraft an experience of its own kind;
- Custom gas burner flame FX that responds to vehicle speed and damage naturally;
- Ambient events fit seamlessly into the game world: a large-scale balloon airshow above Alamo Sea, tourist attraction flights along Vespucci Beach, and common rides in the Vinewood Hills area;
- The fun doesn't end in the air: during the events spectators, crowded tourists, service vehicles and utilities marking the launch sites can be found nearby;
- FiveM support: the balloon is rated to seat three, but you can try and pack all your friends in the basket for an air raid at the Altruist Camp.
Spawn name:
BALLOON
Installation instructions:
1. Move the w_balloon folder from the archive to [Grand Theft Auto V]\mods\update\x64\dlcpacks\;
2. Add dlcpacks:/w_balloon/ to the list inside the [Grand Theft Auto V]\mods\update\update.rpf\common\data\dlclist.xml file.
Dependencies:
Improved gameconfig.xml
Heap Adjuster
Packfile Limit Adjuster
Known issues:
- Missing gas burner (engine) sounds. Flying in silence is much more tranquil tho, and you still got the radio.
- Sometimes player snaps to T-pose when flying the balloon, can be solved by ducking. I'm yet to find the cause of this problem.

@w.. yeah sorry, i said that, then realised there is two links, my bad lol great mod!
Amazing. I'm going to add one to my Backup XML. Paleto Bay PD can't afford a chopper but they're coming in hot in their pursuit balloon!!
@w.. I just basically put w_balloon to my mods/update/x64/dlcpacks folder and add it to my dlclist.xml and thats it. I didn't try to change the textures or something like that lol.
@lasper sounds funky. Could you upload a picture of what is wrong with textures for you or describe the problem in more details, por favor? 🥲
@Welsh_ haha that happens, glad you found it in the end ❤️
" Please don't shoot them down" lol 😂
love it. it is definitely different from any other vehicle in gta 5. its one of a kind. thank you for uploading it to the gta5 universe.
Time for modern day Arthur to go on a ride on this bad boy
First off, W, you're awesome and it's a wonderful mod!
Question: Are the dependencies a must? Because they seem to be targeted at a problem I don't have (I don't have a lot of mods nor any crashes due to limited heap memory). Does this mod alone require so many heap memory that I should apply the heap-increase mod? Same with the DLCs - I don't seem to have an issue with that.
I hope more liveries coming up
@Rome101 if you dont have problems, you dont need the dependencies. the rage engine just has many restraints regarding add-on content and a lot of people run into memory errors once they start adding lots of mods
@syujafrs for sure! I just don't have that much time to work at the mod now, but hope to reach the 25 liveries limit in the next updates.
@Rome101 yep, what Nachtfliege said. I keep that dependency list because these mods are good to have even if you don't need them right now. Especially if you plan to use more than one mod. RAGE engine is slowly but surely reaching its limits 🥲
Your mods are on a different level entirely.
this mod is a beast great work, might I suggest first person options
Could you remove the sandbags? Hot air balloons don't use them
I don't understand where are you supposed to find the required files to place the mod, do you need OpenIV or you can just do it through the GTA V Directory?
@Armouredivision @jerome74 thank you!
You can use the first person view just like any other vehicle, but it surely still requires some camera position tweaks.
@thatbazilcat I won't
@FaZerMissions you need OpenIV to edit the dlclist.xml file inside the update.rpf archive, which is required for the mod to load. However, the mod folder itself can be placed into the required place through Windows Explorer or any other files manager as well.
@w.. i see, might be something wrong with my game then, thanks a lot, i figured this may have been the case
Nice Job!
@w.. ok so this may just be with my game but once I enter balloon I cant change camera view, only way to enter first person is to already be in first person before entering,
also is it possible to make him exit whilst still airborne without jumping out the balloon, is there also a way to increase how often the balloons spawn, cuz they rarely spawn and some disappear when I turn away,
your mod is awesome but these small changes will make an already perfect mod even better, thanks again for sharing
