Now we’re going to main core of VisualV – weather files, named w_*.xml, e.g. Next – hbaosettings.xml, file used for Horizon Based Ambient Occlusion settings, comparison – vanilla file, VisualV, Redux. NOclouds was copied from VisualV to Redux. Josh grab them and assigned for the weather called CLEAR.Ĭloudkeyframes.xml defines a cloud colors and influence of sun lighting. NOclouds is one of them, set for NEUTRAL weather. VisualV introduced few new types of clouds settings exclusive for this mod, used mostly in sunny weathers. File defines a weathers, particles attached to them and clouds assignment. Let’s move to the different file – weather.xml. Redux has them enabled too.ĭark.useNormal, parameter unused in vanilla, we added this to enable normal maps for environment which use that type of lights (mostly small spots like light above doors etc.) Think what Redux did. Vanilla game has disabled shadows in Luxor and Swift vehicles, value is 0.0. Their values are 140.00 and 225.00 used in VisualV, Redux has identical values.Īnother parameters - and. One of the taken parameters is heightReflect.width and heightReflect.height. One of the files is visualsettings, related to various lights settings for the game, motion blur etc.

If you don’t belive – download both mods and compare yourself. Now you’re thinking – am I doing a nonsense indictment just to hate him or something like that? Nope, there strong evidences which I’ll show you right now. What happened with GTA 5 Redux?įor the third time, he ripped off my work, a mod called VisualV. If you don’t remember, I’ll remind it for you – his mods had a parts or even whole files from the other authors without permission, marked as done by Romito. I guess you remember why Miracle of V and Pinnacle of V were removed. Josh Romito didn’t learn a bit from his earlier attempts to mod Rockstar’s blockbuster game. I’m very disappointed of actions of Redux author.

Now you have a question – why am I see this? I’m CP, one of the VisualV author, probably well known graphic overhaul for GTAV. When 16th September 2016 appeared, surprisingly website was taken down, giving a trouble to download the mod.

Their announcement on gaming sites, promising a change every aspect of game and new experience was hyped a lot of users, waiting for trying this. Not so long ago, one of the biggest mod was released for Grand Theft Auto V, called GTA5 Redux.
