Amazing graphics for medium/Low pc's

[T-ru]

I think that the games (IV/EFLC) have too many and unnecessary visual effects and they provoke lags, low fps, popping textures and many others problems.

Don't get me wrong, this mod doesn't remove the effects, this mod arrange the visual effects, strengthen some on the suitable places and reduce some.


- Whole new visual style.
- Improve colours and brightness/dark in all hours and weathers.
- Realistic fog.
- Improved night lights (realistic colours and brithness).
- There is no ambient shadows from 7pm to 7am, also all hours when is cloudy,foggy, rain, drizzle and lighting.
- Lightweight rendering of the trees and the bushes, reduce popping of the trees.
- The stars are visible on medium textures.
- AA (antialiasing) and colors sharpness by Sweet Effect.
- Dynamic lights.
- During night each area has his own light's intensity.
- Motion blur: completely remove static blur, remain only motion blur.
- Improved Ocean water.
- Improved sky sources: sun, horizont, clouds ... etc.
- +7~10 FPS than originals!
- Many others.

VERY IMPORTANT - PLEASE MAKE YOUR INGAME DISPLAY SETTINGS LIKE IN THE PIC AND SCREEN LIKE IN MonitorSettings.txt
FROM DisplaySetingsForAll FOLDER, OTHERWISE YOU'LL GET UGLY COLOURS AND LIGHTS!!!

v.3.7 GTA V Visuality: http://www.gta4-mods.com/misc/amazing-performance-and-graphics-for-medium-l-f26096

The graphics is same for all games (IV and EFLC), like in this pics!!!

 

 

 

THIS MOD WILL MAKE YOU FORGET ABOUT THE POPPING TEXTURES, BECAUSE OF THE LIGHTWEIGHT EFFECTS AND THE NEW LODS OF THE TREES AND BUSHES.

Work only with the last patches of the games - 1.0.7.0 IV and 1.1.2.0 EFLC, also the games must be clean (no visual, or texture moded)!!!

To install this mod you need from Open IV:

looks amazing! can you upload to Mediafire?

[Gramps]

It looks ok-ish .. the jaggies annoy me too much though. Apply some AA to it.

 

What are the specs of your system ?

 

What other mods do you have installed, and how many FPS are you getting? Also, post a screen of IG settings, or list them.

 

Thanks.

[Tadzik]

don't use jpg for screenshots

[T-ru]

About anoying jaggies you can use injectSMAA v1.2

 

I don't have any others mods!!!

 

I tried it on athlon 2 cores; 512 mb video; 2 gb ram and it work well on medium settings (Res: 1152/864 and night shadows on HIGH).

 

I guarantee +10 fps than original games!!! If you install evrything!!!

Thanks for the work, T-ru. My computer apparently hates running vanilla GTA graphics, but gets much better performance with mods like these. Most of the others I found had issues with brightness and glare, but yours is just fine!

 

One issue, though. My custom lightbar coronas (I use the Non-Els Coronas from LCPDFR.com) have disappeared, and I'd like to get them back. Is there something I can tweak in visualsettings?

If your coronas are disappeared during daytime it's ok because i reduce them (make them invisible) from 7 am until 8 pm like in reality (and for more performance), you can't tweak them by visualsetting.dat, they are deep in timecyc.dat files, now i have some time, ill bring them back during daytime in next hour, and ill post it on the first post.

But if they are disappeared during nighttime then don't use the files from pc,textures.

 

ED: Done, read the first post.

Thanks a bunch, it just looked weird without any light source being there.

Hey, T-ru. Is there a chance of getting the latest version with the light coronas left on during the day?

 

Thanks again for this tweak.

Thanks a bunch for the optional version, and everything else is looking great.

[T-ru]

@The Loot: You are welcome, I'm glad that you like it.

 

There is a final version.

[Phantomkick]

i love this mod, but could you reduce the brightness in daytime?

About too much brightness during daytime - all monitors have different parameters between each other, gamma, color temperature (K), RGB ... etc. And mods like this is looking great or awful in depends of the sreen.

I made it like this to feel the sunlight.

 

I use these screen parametres:

gamma: -50

contrast: 70

brightness: 93

red: 49

green: 50

blue: 50

Color temperature: 6500K

 

I recommend you to use those parametres, because you'll get more realistic colors for all games and it's safety for the eyes.

I made final(Hotfix) version in the first post, more performance, tweaked trees, bushes and some colors

Guys, I played all missions again for all games and I noticed two bugs and I already fixed them, just need some free time to upload a hotfix.

One bug is a view distance from upland (from skyscrapers or from helicopters).

The other one is view distance from Star Junction (Manhatan).

Very soon I'll uplad it.

Thanks for fixing em, glad I found this mod, some reason like the other fellow. My game runs crappy on vanilla but with mods it runs fine O.o..

 

Anyway I used another one before this that had the problem with the helicopter you were talking about, never saw a fix for it sadly so glad to know you fixed it.

I don't know what you mean, i find two bugs in this mod: view distance from high points (when you are on skyscrapers or when you fly with helicopters, there is a black holes around the ocean in the far distance) and view distance from star junction.

Anyway I already fixed it, read the first post.

Hey, T-ru, quick thing. I've noticed that there's a lot of shine on people, and the sun reflects pretty bright off of the sidewalks.

 

Glare on sidewalks

 

Shine on Niko

 

The only other thing is that I've noticed that cars turn their lights off too early in the morning and too late in the evening. I'm not sure if you've tweaked that, or that it just gets light later and darker earlier.

Yes, i made sidewalks and other bright surfaces a pretty brights, because of dazzle effect and sun reflection/flares, but if you go near to these surfaces and look straight to them, they become normall, like in the reality i think, examples:

Here the view is horizontal:

 

Here the view is straight to them:

 

In the morning and at dusk, i made the sunlight (which include sun reflection and shadows) slowly to disappear (at dusk) and slowly to appear (in the morning), but there is not to dark,

7 AM:

 

anyway like i said the mods like this is great on some monitors and with artefacts on others.

You just need to try different screen and game dissplay settings.

I made this mod according with this NY at morning

NY at midday NY at dusk

hi there, i found out that when its rainy, the rain particle just show up a little. If you add it more, i think it would be great

other than that this is an awesome mod, you deserved cookies

[T-ru]

@The Loot: You was right, i had some free time and played the games more carefuly and yes there is shine peds, glare surfaces and too darkness in the mornimg and at dusk and some other things, but i already fixed it

 

@adoel488: I think that the the rain particles in this condition are normal, yes, maybe when the cam is in the dark area they are less visible, but don't you think that like this is more natural (the particles are more disperse), also like this you gain more performance.

 

There is a version 2.0, read the first post.
