Plugins: How to Properly Install and Configure Them?

So, I would like GOOD information about Plugins in general, how to configure, say, .ini files and how to avoid problems.

I’ve been in a hot discussion with Kaner and some other admins about Plugins and FiveReborn.
They say they’re not supported and generally they’re a bad idea, but I know FiveReborn can benefit so much from them.

Priorities:
ScripHookDotNET, Trainers (Menyoo, Enhanced Native Trainer etc…) and Plugin Configuration (especially .ini files).

Pls help and good luck!

ScripHookDotNET

Not supported.

Trainers (Menyoo, Enhanced Native Trainer etc…)

Only Enhanced Reborn is supported.

Plugin Configuration (especially .ini files)

.INI files need to go inside your GTA V main folder.

We do not stimulate people to use any .ASI, it makes the client more unstable, next to that we’d much rather see people create their own server-/clientsided scripts coded in Lua or soon to come C#.

Thanks @Boss, really good info and very enlightening, great job!
Quick question: about .ini files, I need to put them in the plugins folder and GTA V directory at same time? And if so, do I need to configure them both?

Just GTA V directory.

Thanks! @Boss
