⚠️ Modding and script injection can corrupt save files or trigger anti-cheat (if playing online via Steam's leaderboards). Use at your own risk. Single-player only. Guide: Lua Scripts in Mafia II 1. How It Works (The Engine) Mafia II runs on the Illusion Engine (LS3D). It handles logic via .lua files inside *.sds archives. To inject new scripts, you bypass the normal loader using a DLL injector that hooks into the game’s Lua state. 2. Required Tools | Tool | Purpose | |------|---------| | Mafia II Script Hook (e.g., Lua Injector by Raz0r or Script Hook by ThirteenAG ) | Injects custom Lua into the game process | | ASI Loader (if using Script Hook) | Loads .asi plugins | | Notepad++ / VS Code | Write/edit Lua scripts | | Mafia II SDK (optional) | Decompile game scripts to learn functions | ✅ Easiest for beginners: Download Mafia II Simple Lua Injector from Nexus Mods or GBAtemp. 3. Basic Script Template Create a new file, e.g., my_script.lua :

-- Mafia II Lua Script Example local player = GetPlayer() local ped = GetPlayerPed() function main() while true do Wait(0) -- Prevent freezing (0 = every frame)

( %USERPROFILE%\Documents\My Games\Mafia II\Saves ) before injecting any script.
