Kiddion's External Ped Dropper v1.0.4 (2k drops)

Inspired by the "GTA5 Akuma" mod I wrote this completely external ped-dropper mod. It teleports NPCs above the player, kill them and increases the money pickups that they drop to 2000.

To use it:

First download the external mod.
Start GTA 5 and wait until you are in-game.
Once the game has fully loaded, start the executable for your version (RSC or Steam). For Steam you may need to run it "As Administrator", depending on how Steam was started.
Find a good spot to stand still for a while without any roof over your head. The pier, close to the "do not cross" wooden fence has proven to be an excellent spot, since most of the day a lot of human NPCs are spawned by the game.
To start the hack, press Numpad+. This will start/increase the max rate of peds dropped per second. Numpad- will decrease the maximum rate. There are currently 13 steps, ranging from limiting up to 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 10, 20, 40, 80, 320 peds/second max.
Just stand still at the same spot and receive all the money falling from the sky. Most money pickups will add 2k to your bank account. Since the mod is external, not all peds may teleport correctly and some will die elsewhere and some will not spawn any money pickup. (Alternatively you could start walking around and grab the money pickups after they have fallen on the floor behind you.)
Press Numpad- key a couple of times to stop money from dropping.
The executable will close itself once GTA5 is no longer running.

Advanced options:

This mod can be configured using an ini-file with the same name as your executable, except with .ini instead of .exe at the end.
All settings must be placed in a "ped-dropper" section, e.g.:
[ped-dropper]
MoneyValue=1337

Advanced recipes

To use a different keybinding IncreaseKey and DecreaseKey can be set to a different Virtual Keycode, e.g. using [+

and [-_] instead:
[ped-dropper]
IncreaseKey=0xBB
DecreaseKey=0xBD

To make sure all money pickups in the game are upgraded even when not dropping any peds at the moment, set "UpgradeAll" to 1:
[ped-dropper]
UpgradeAll=1

To get the vintage ped-dropper v1.0/v1.0.1 experience with peds dropping from the sky , you can use:
[ped-dropper]
FreezeMomentum=0

To make peds invisble before teleporting them into the sky, you can use:
[ped-dropper]
InvisiblePeds=1

Please note that I while I can test the RSC version thoroughly, I am unable to test the Steam version for myself since I don't own one.

Known issues:

If you run this for too long GTA 5 might crash. This is caused by GTA 5 not cleaning up properly. To avoid this from happening, you could try switching locations or walk around in a circle.
Sometimes no money is being dropped. If there are no peds nearby none can be killed for their money pickups. How many peds are spawned by the game depends on both the location and the in-game time-of-day.

Please report any issues!

At last thank god... And thank you Kiddion you are the best, literally.
Edit 1 : Steam works but game crashes after about 5 minutes. (1M $)

same here ;c

Nice to see this be posted here, it's always great to see an improved ped dropper again. Look forward to seeing new instalments of it in the future!

is it supposed to add the money top the bank acc in my case (steam version ) it does only drop to my chars pocket

It'll drop it into your characters wallet, I don't think it's possible to drop it into your bank using an external mod. I may be wrong though

Me too as seen for people above, or is there some trick to change the Ped drop.exe to Ped drop.ini ?

anyone knows how to create .ini file from .exe or where can I find the .ini file?
