gta5view

gta5view is a desktop utility for opening and editing Grand Theft Auto V profile data. It presents the contents of a profile so that individual entries can be examined and altered, then written back. That places it in the category of external editors: it works on profile data outside the game rather than adding features inside it, and it does not manage game installations or updates.

The program is published by Syping under the GPL-3.0-or-later licence, so the source can be studied, modified and redistributed under the same terms. Packaging is listed for Linux only; users of other operating systems would need to build it themselves or look elsewhere, as no additional platform is stated as supported.

Because the files being edited are produced by a third-party game rather than by gta5view itself, the usual practice of keeping an untouched copy of anything you intend to modify applies. Readers evaluating the tool should treat its scope as narrow and specific to one game's profile data.
