MLOs are interior locations. They're usually among the first big-ticket mod categories to mature after a Rockstar release on PC. We discuss why, and what to expect.

Why MLOs come early

Lighter on toolwork than full exterior map mods. Driven by RP server demand - a community already waiting in line. Authoring programs (3ds Max, Blender, etc.) already work with the format.

The scene moves on to authoring MLOs once there is an archive editor and a CodeWalker equivalent.

Likely timeline

PC release + 3-6 months: small early MLOs start popping up. PC release + 6-12 months: better-finished MLOs, and a marketplace emerges. PC release + 12-24 months: NoPixel-quality MLO packs.

Timeline is purely speculative. Dates will vary based on maturity of tools and Rockstar policy decisions.
