Velkommen til GTA5-Mods.com

in order to modify internal brightness of night time you have to modify some of the timecycle_mods ........ the xmls

if you do a search in openiv you're gonna see a whole bunch but concentrate on the ones within update.rpf and common.rpf......the xmls in there are the ones you need to modify in order to make the night sky a bit clearer and not pitch dark

@Foxy_Oxy I'm happy to report that the issue I had with the 4.0 version, causing the game to become overly bright and colorful, has been fixed apparently with the new 4.5 version. The coloration and the tone of brightness has been restored to how I had it before with the benefits of the mod itself.

What I'm thinking is that maybe with the graphics mod components I have, VisualV with Reshade, the preset works well, as long as native textures are untouched however since the textures were enhanced to 4k/2k in the 4.0 version I think that sort of oversaturated the colors and brightness in such a way that it actually conflicted with the preset I had. Obviously I don't want to discourage anyone from using the 4.0 version but, I think it works best for anyone that does not have graphics mods installed, like I do. If you do have a graphics mod installed I recommend using the 4.5 version instead.

This 4.0 enhancement update on the vegetation looks great! The grass and most trees/palms look nicely sharp and realistic but, there seems to be a slight downside to this new update though. For one thing, it does causes a major drop on fps, I have a strong gaming laptop and I noticed the fps dropped for about -10 or more than that, in some areas. Also, I find this kind of weird but, once I installed the dlc, for some reason, everything became overly bright and too colorful.

I have VisualV installed with Reshade and ENBseries combined with a specific preset.ini in it but, it seemed as if the dlc overwrote the preset I had and made things overly colorful....I don't know...I could be wrong. I have to maybe take the dlc out and see if there's a difference after I take it out. I'll report on this soon.

@LS-Multiplayer Team Am I supposed to have both OpenIV.asi and OpenRPF.asi together in the directory when modifying files in OpenIV? I loaded GTA V enhanced in OpenIV with only OpenRPF.asi installed and when I clicked on the "Edit" tab I was prompted to install OpenIV.asi, it seems as if without OpenIV.asi installed I can't edit any files.

@Foxy_Oxy I think you peeled the right banana here with this "grass" mod. After installing it, I noticed the grass does looks much more realistic. It also looks, as if, it's got some depth to it as well as those sandy spots where grass doesn't grow, as in real life, which makes it even more realistic. It's definitely a much better improvement than vanilla's overly bright, cartoonist flat grass. Good job dude!! 5 stars on this one :-)

@DangIT You can change the name of that vehicle in the Add-OnCarSpawner cfg file to whatever you want what is important is not to change the "spawn" name of the vehicle, otherwise you won't be able to spawn it. For example, if the car's name is "Pister 911 GT3 992" and the spawn name is "gt3", the line in the cfg file should look like this > Pister 911 GT3 992\gt3. If you want to change the name, change the "Pister 911 GT3 992" to whatever you want but, DO NOT change the spawn name "gt3".

@Foxy_Oxy I haven't tried this mod yet but, I'm downloading it momentarily, I'll let you know whether I like it or not once I install it but, my main message here to you has to do with the "grass". I think the gta 5 grass is the worst, to tell you the truth, regardless of whether you make the grass quality high in settings, it still looks like a cartoonist carpet. Have you considered working on improving the grass in the game?

@megaz0id Does this mod has the potential to conflict with other mission mods such as the New Street Phone Mission mod ( https://www.gta5-mods.com/scripts/new-street-phone-missions )? Also, on "Random Events" it says that some of the events implemented are running low on fuel requiring gas station visits I wonder if that would conflict with fuel mods such as the "Fuel Reloaded" mod, which I have installed > https://www.gta5-mods.com/scripts/fuel-reloaded ?

Is there anyway to have the mod automatically activate when you launch the game instead of pressing shift+j in game everytime?

@roccowtw Did you make the changes in the ini file or in game? You need to make the change in the ini file. Open up the ini using Notepad++ and scroll down to the "EnableSnow" line, just type "snow" to find it, once you find it change the value to "1" then save. You should be able to see snow on the ground once you relaunch your game, if you still don't see snow on the ground then maybe you have either the gta 5 patch that did not allowed snow on the ground or a "pirated" version. There was a version that for some reason you couldn't add snow to the ground regardless of what trainer you had but I forgot what version was it. Also, if you have a "pirated" version of gta 5 that you downloaded somewhere, that might also be a problem.

@roccowtw If you have "Simple Trainer" you can lock in the snow in the ini so next time you go back in the game it'll be snowing. There's also a really good mod that I use that not only does it automatically saves and loads your last position, health, weapons, money, clothing but it also saves your last in-game time and weather, it's called "Last Location" by FLareXll > https://www.gta5-mods.com/scripts/last-location
