Key information
A recent mod for Grand Theft Auto 5, titled Toy Cars – Make any car tiny, allows players to shrink their vehicles into Micro Machines-sized versions. The modification aims to maintain the original vehicle's appearance, sound, and behavior while utilizing a hidden RC-sized chassis to simulate miniature physics, suspension, and collision.
The mod functions by pressing the F7 key to trigger the transformation. While the shrinking process itself works as intended, the player reports that the game engine often stops recognizing the vehicle as being under player control once it is resized. This causes the car to behave erratically, moving uncontrollably like other non-player vehicles in the game world.
The player encountered significant issues while attempting to exit the shrunken vehicle. Pressing the standard exit button resulted in an irrelevant notification stating there were no deer nearby, effectively trapping the player inside the car. The player noted that they were unable to leave the vehicle until they manually reverted it to its original scale using the F7 key.
This modification is part of an ongoing series of experiments involving GTA 5, where the player attempts to alter the game's mechanics through various mods. Despite the technical difficulties experienced with the Toy Cars mod, the player confirmed that the shrinking feature itself operates effectively before the subsequent loss of player-character vehicle status.
