NpcLivestream - NPCs Livestream Your Crimes in GTA V
NpcLivestream turns your GTA V single-player gameplay into a simulated live-streaming event.
When you start fighting, shooting, committing a robbery, or receive a wanted level, a nearby NPC can become your live camera operator. The NPC follows you on foot while holding a phone and filming the action.
A live-stream overlay appears on screen with a LIVE indicator, viewer count, scrolling chat, reactions, NPC avatars, vehicle information, clothing information, and special character interactions.
The viewer count and chat are completely simulated inside GTA V and do not connect to any real streaming service.
WHAT DOES NpcLivestream DO?
NpcLivestream automatically detects criminal activity and starts the livestream when certain conditions are met.
The livestream can activate when you:
* Start shooting
* Enter combat
* Receive a wanted level
* Trigger the robbery system
* Manually activate the livestream with F9
Once the livestream starts, the mod searches for a nearby civilian NPC to become the camera operator.
The camera NPC will:
* Hold a phone while filming
* Follow the player on foot
* Be protected from normal population cleanup
* Avoid being selected if they are a police officer
* Try to remain near the player
* Be replaced if the camera NPC dies or disappears
The current version uses foot-only following. The camera NPC does not spawn or use a vehicle to chase the player.
LIVE STREAM OVERLAY
When the livestream is active, an on-screen streaming interface appears.
The overlay includes:
* LIVE indicator
* Viewer counter
* Live chat
* NPC avatars
* Floating reactions
* Camera commentary
* Vehicle information
* Clothing information
* Special character chat events
VIEWER COUNT
The viewer count is simulated and changes while the livestream is active.
The viewer count can:
* Increase
* Decrease
* Drop very low
* Build back up
* Increase during combat
* Reach up to approximately 50000 viewers
* Occasionally fall close to 1 viewer
The viewer count is only for gameplay immersion.
It does not represent real viewers and does not connect to YouTube, Twitch, Kick, TikTok, or any other streaming platform.
LIVE CHAT
The livestream has a dynamic chat system.
Viewers can react to different situations happening in the game.
Combat can generate messages such as:
"dayum"
"RUN RUN RUN"
"he's not surviving this"
"bro thinks he's John Wick"
"cops pulling up fast"
Robbery situations can generate messages about the robbery, police, store owners, getting away, and whether the player successfully escaped.
Wanted levels can generate messages about the police chase and increasing wanted level.
The chat can also mention the player's current character name.
REAL NPC AVATARS
NpcLivestream uses GTA V's built-in ped headshot system for nearby NPC chat avatars.
The mod can display real nearby NPC faces instead of using only fictional profile images.
Police officers are filtered out when selecting suitable NPCs for the camera and avatar system.
Important:
GTA V does not provide a simple circular avatar mask through the system used by this mod. Because of this, NPC avatars appear as small square images.
NPC CAMERA OPERATOR
A nearby civilian NPC is selected to act as the livestream camera operator.
The selected NPC is protected from normal population cleanup and unwanted ambient behavior.
The camera NPC:
* Follows the player on foot
* Holds a phone
* Attempts to remain with the player
* Does not intentionally flee from normal ambient events
* Is protected from normal population cleanup
* Is replaced if the NPC dies or disappears
* Is not intentionally selected from police NPCs
If there is no suitable NPC nearby, the mod safely waits until another NPC becomes available.
VEHICLE INFORMATION
When the player is inside a vehicle, NpcLivestream can read information directly from GTA V.
The livestream can display:
* Vehicle model name
* License plate
* Primary vehicle color
Example:
[CAM] NPC_CAM
driving a Black vehicle, plate ABC123
Vehicle replacement and add-on mods may also provide their own vehicle display names. When GTA V provides the registered vehicle name, NpcLivestream can use that information.
PLAYER CLOTHING INFORMATION
NpcLivestream can also comment on the player's current clothing.
GTA V's native API provides clothing component slots, drawable numbers, and texture numbers rather than readable names for every individual clothing item.
Because of this, the livestream reports the actual clothing slot and variation information.
Example:
[CAM] NPC_CAM
rocking Torso variation 12-2
The information is based on the player's actual GTA V clothing data.
FLOATING REACTIONS
While the livestream is active, floating reactions can appear on screen.
Possible reactions include:

OMG
FIRE
LOL
WOW
The reactions appear temporarily and move upward on the screen.
DENISE CLINTON AND LAMAR DAVIS CHAT EVENT
When playing as Franklin, NpcLivestream includes a special scripted chat event involving Denise Clinton and Lamar Davis.
Denise Clinton can occasionally appear in the livestream chat and comment about Franklin getting into trouble with the police.
A few seconds later, Lamar Davis can respond to her message.
This special event only works when the player's character is Franklin.
It does not trigger when playing as Michael, Trevor, or another custom character.
DENISE CLINTON CUSTOM AVATAR
NpcLivestream supports an optional custom Denise Clinton image for her livestream chat avatar.
The optional image must be located at:
scripts\NpcLivestream\denise_clinton.png
If the PNG is not installed, the mod continues working and uses the normal avatar fallback.
The Denise PNG is optional.
STABILITY FEATURES
NpcLivestream includes several safeguards designed to reduce freezes, crashes, and leftover entities.
Death and Respawn Protection
When the player dies and GTA V enters the WASTED and respawn sequence, the livestream shuts down its active camera NPC and phone systems.
The script waits until player control has been restored before allowing the livestream system to become active again.
This prevents the mod from performing unnecessary NPC and model operations while GTA V is handling the respawn process.
Wanted Level Cleanup Protection
When the wanted level changes from above 0 back to 0, the mod temporarily reduces some native-heavy operations while GTA V cleans up police NPCs and vehicles.
Camera NPC Protection
The camera NPC is protected from normal population cleanup and unwanted ambient behavior.
Camera NPC Recovery
If the camera NPC dies or disappears, the phone is cleaned up and another suitable NPC can be selected.
Phone Cleanup
The phone prop attached to the camera NPC is removed when the livestream ends or the camera NPC becomes invalid.
Non-Blocking Model Loading
The phone model is requested without using a long blocking wait.
Error Protection
The main update system uses error handling so a single bad frame does not intentionally cascade into repeated script errors.

Place:
NpcLivestream.dll
inside:
GTA V\scripts\
Your installation should look like this:
GTA V\scripts\NpcLivestream.dll
Step 5 - Optional Denise Avatar
If you want to use the optional Denise Clinton avatar, create:
GTA V\scripts\NpcLivestream\
Then place:
denise_clinton.png

OPTIONAL SCRIPT INTEGRATION
NpcLivestream includes a public robbery hook that other compatible ScriptHookVDotNet scripts can use.
Another script can call:
NpcLivestream.SetRobbing(true);
when a robbery starts.
When the robbery ends, the other script can call:
NpcLivestream.SetRobbing(false);
This allows compatible robbery mods to trigger the NpcLivestream system.

Because of this, clothing commentary uses the available component and variation information.
Custom Vehicle Colors
Some custom vehicle colors may not match the built-in color lookup table.
In those cases the livestream may display:
Custom Color N
instead of a readable color name.

Step 1 - Install Script Hook V
Install Script Hook V into your GTA V main directory.
Your GTA V main directory is the folder containing:
GTA5.exe
Make sure Script Hook V is installed correctly before installing NpcLivestream.
Step 2 - Install ScriptHookVDotNet 3
Install the required ScriptHookVDotNet 3 files into your GTA V main directory.
Step 3 - Create the Scripts Folder
If you do not already have a scripts folder, create one next to GTA5.exe:
GTA V\scripts
Step 4 - Install NpcLivestream
Place:
NpcLivestream.dll
inside:
GTA V\scripts\
Your installation should look like this:
GTA V\scripts\NpcLivestream.dll
Step 5 - Optional Denise Avatar
If you want to use the optional Denise Clinton avatar, create:
GTA V\scripts\NpcLivestream\
Then place:
denise_clinton.png
inside that folder.
The final optional path should be:
GTA V\scripts\NpcLivestream\denise_clinton.png
Step 6 - Start GTA V
Launch GTA V in Single Player and load your save.
NpcLivestream will automatically begin working when the required gameplay conditions are detected.
OPTIONAL SCRIPT INTEGRATION
NpcLivestream includes a public robbery hook that other compatible ScriptHookVDotNet scripts can use.
Another script can call:
NpcLivestream.SetRobbing(true);
when a robbery starts.
When the robbery ends, the other script can call:
NpcLivestream.SetRobbing(false);
This allows compatible robbery mods to trigger the NpcLivestream system.
CUSTOM PLAYER NAME
Other compatible scripts can set a custom player display name using:
NpcLivestream.CustomPlayerName = "YourName";
This can be useful with custom player models or multiplayer-style characters that GTA V does not automatically identify as Michael, Franklin, or Trevor.
IMPORTANT NOTES
NpcLivestream is a single-player immersion script.
The viewer count, chat, reactions, and livestream are simulated entirely inside GTA V.
NpcLivestream does not connect to any real livestreaming service.
It does not connect to:
* YouTube
* Twitch
* Kick
* TikTok
* Other streaming platforms
The viewer count is fictional and is only used for gameplay immersion.
The camera NPC currently follows the player on foot only.
The current version does not spawn a chase vehicle for the camera NPC.
KNOWN LIMITATIONS
NPC Avatars
NPC headshot avatars appear as square images because of the limitations of the GTA V native drawing system used by the mod.
Clothing Names
GTA V provides clothing component IDs, drawable IDs, and texture IDs instead of readable names for every garment.
Because of this, clothing commentary uses the available component and variation information.
Custom Vehicle Colors
Some custom vehicle colors may not match the built-in color lookup table.
In those cases the livestream may display:
Custom Color N
instead of a readable color name.
Denise Avatar
The custom Denise Clinton avatar requires:
denise_clinton.png
If the PNG is missing, the livestream continues working normally using the fallback avatar.

NpcLivestream includes:
* Automatic livestream activation
* NPC camera operator
* Real nearby NPC headshot avatars

QUICK START
Install the required files.
Launch GTA V Single Player.
Load your save.
Start shooting, enter combat, commit a robbery, or receive a wanted level.
A nearby NPC can become your camera operator and start livestreaming your actions.
Watch the viewer count, chat, NPC avatars, and reactions appear on screen.
Press F9 if you want to manually test the livestream.
Enjoy turning your GTA V chaos into a simulated live-stream event.
NpcLivestream turns your GTA V single-player gameplay into a simulated live-streaming event.
When you start fighting, shooting, committing a robbery, or receive a wanted level, a nearby NPC can become your live camera operator. The NPC follows you on foot while holding a phone and filming the action.
A live-stream overlay appears on screen with a LIVE indicator, viewer count, scrolling chat, reactions, NPC avatars, vehicle information, clothing information, and special character interactions.
The viewer count and chat are completely simulated inside GTA V and do not connect to any real streaming service.
WHAT DOES NpcLivestream DO?
NpcLivestream automatically detects criminal activity and starts the livestream when certain conditions are met.
The livestream can activate when you:
* Start shooting
* Enter combat
* Receive a wanted level
* Trigger the robbery system
* Manually activate the livestream with F9
Once the livestream starts, the mod searches for a nearby civilian NPC to become the camera operator.
The camera NPC will:
* Hold a phone while filming
* Follow the player on foot
* Be protected from normal population cleanup
* Avoid being selected if they are a police officer
* Try to remain near the player
* Be replaced if the camera NPC dies or disappears
The current version uses foot-only following. The camera NPC does not spawn or use a vehicle to chase the player.
LIVE STREAM OVERLAY
When the livestream is active, an on-screen streaming interface appears.
The overlay includes:
* LIVE indicator
* Viewer counter
* Live chat
* NPC avatars
* Floating reactions
* Camera commentary
* Vehicle information
* Clothing information
* Special character chat events
VIEWER COUNT
The viewer count is simulated and changes while the livestream is active.
The viewer count can:
* Increase
* Decrease
* Drop very low
* Build back up
* Increase during combat
* Reach up to approximately 50000 viewers
* Occasionally fall close to 1 viewer
The viewer count is only for gameplay immersion.
It does not represent real viewers and does not connect to YouTube, Twitch, Kick, TikTok, or any other streaming platform.
LIVE CHAT
The livestream has a dynamic chat system.
Viewers can react to different situations happening in the game.
Combat can generate messages such as:
"dayum"
"RUN RUN RUN"
"he's not surviving this"
"bro thinks he's John Wick"
"cops pulling up fast"
Robbery situations can generate messages about the robbery, police, store owners, getting away, and whether the player successfully escaped.
Wanted levels can generate messages about the police chase and increasing wanted level.
The chat can also mention the player's current character name.
REAL NPC AVATARS
NpcLivestream uses GTA V's built-in ped headshot system for nearby NPC chat avatars.
The mod can display real nearby NPC faces instead of using only fictional profile images.
Police officers are filtered out when selecting suitable NPCs for the camera and avatar system.
Important:
GTA V does not provide a simple circular avatar mask through the system used by this mod. Because of this, NPC avatars appear as small square images.
NPC CAMERA OPERATOR
A nearby civilian NPC is selected to act as the livestream camera operator.
The selected NPC is protected from normal population cleanup and unwanted ambient behavior.
The camera NPC:
* Follows the player on foot
* Holds a phone
* Attempts to remain with the player
* Does not intentionally flee from normal ambient events
* Is protected from normal population cleanup
* Is replaced if the NPC dies or disappears
* Is not intentionally selected from police NPCs
If there is no suitable NPC nearby, the mod safely waits until another NPC becomes available.
VEHICLE INFORMATION
When the player is inside a vehicle, NpcLivestream can read information directly from GTA V.
The livestream can display:
* Vehicle model name
* License plate
* Primary vehicle color
Example:
[CAM] NPC_CAM
driving a Black vehicle, plate ABC123
Vehicle replacement and add-on mods may also provide their own vehicle display names. When GTA V provides the registered vehicle name, NpcLivestream can use that information.
PLAYER CLOTHING INFORMATION
NpcLivestream can also comment on the player's current clothing.
GTA V's native API provides clothing component slots, drawable numbers, and texture numbers rather than readable names for every individual clothing item.
Because of this, the livestream reports the actual clothing slot and variation information.
Example:
[CAM] NPC_CAM
rocking Torso variation 12-2
The information is based on the player's actual GTA V clothing data.
FLOATING REACTIONS
While the livestream is active, floating reactions can appear on screen.
Possible reactions include:
<3
!!
XD
OMG
FIRE
LOL
WOW
The reactions appear temporarily and move upward on the screen.
DENISE CLINTON AND LAMAR DAVIS CHAT EVENT
When playing as Franklin, NpcLivestream includes a special scripted chat event involving Denise Clinton and Lamar Davis.
Denise Clinton can occasionally appear in the livestream chat and comment about Franklin getting into trouble with the police.
A few seconds later, Lamar Davis can respond to her message.
This special event only works when the player's character is Franklin.
It does not trigger when playing as Michael, Trevor, or another custom character.
DENISE CLINTON CUSTOM AVATAR
NpcLivestream supports an optional custom Denise Clinton image for her livestream chat avatar.
The optional image must be located at:
scripts\NpcLivestream\denise_clinton.png
If the PNG is not installed, the mod continues working and uses the normal avatar fallback.
The Denise PNG is optional.
STABILITY FEATURES
NpcLivestream includes several safeguards designed to reduce freezes, crashes, and leftover entities.
Death and Respawn Protection
When the player dies and GTA V enters the WASTED and respawn sequence, the livestream shuts down its active camera NPC and phone systems.
The script waits until player control has been restored before allowing the livestream system to become active again.
This prevents the mod from performing unnecessary NPC and model operations while GTA V is handling the respawn process.
Wanted Level Cleanup Protection
When the wanted level changes from above 0 back to 0, the mod temporarily reduces some native-heavy operations while GTA V cleans up police NPCs and vehicles.
Camera NPC Protection
The camera NPC is protected from normal population cleanup and unwanted ambient behavior.
Camera NPC Recovery
If the camera NPC dies or disappears, the phone is cleaned up and another suitable NPC can be selected.
Phone Cleanup
The phone prop attached to the camera NPC is removed when the livestream ends or the camera NPC becomes invalid.
Non-Blocking Model Loading
The phone model is requested without using a long blocking wait.
Error Protection
The main update system uses error handling so a single bad frame does not intentionally cascade into repeated script errors.
HOW TO PLAY
NpcLivestream is designed to work automatically.
You do not need to activate the livestream manually during normal gameplay.
Follow these steps:
1. Start GTA V Single Player.
2. Load your save.
3. Make sure NpcLivestream is installed correctly.
4. Play normally.
5. Start shooting, enter combat, commit a robbery, or receive a wanted level.
6. NpcLivestream detects the activity.
7. A nearby civilian NPC becomes the camera operator.
8. The LIVE overlay appears.
9. Viewer messages and reactions begin appearing.
10. Continue playing while the NPC livestreams your actions.
After the criminal activity ends, the livestream remains active for approximately 6 seconds.
If no new criminal activity is detected during that time, the livestream automatically stops.
