Some great mods to play Story Mode with.
-
What are some good mods that wont break everything and improve the GTA V singleplayer experience. I don't mean freeroam singleplayer, I want to do all of the mission 0%-100% with mods. I know some can break the game but I also know there are tons of people who have done exactly what I want to do and im just wondering what mods were used.
-
@Dolan1235 you mean graphic mods, or overhaul scripts that change system of for example weapons etc, or vehicle mods, or clothes mods? There is a lot to choose from
-
@ArmaniAdnr Anything, I know some graphics mods like NaturalVision and VisualV are fine with storymode but im focusing on scripts or things that change actual gameplay while still allowing me to fully complete the game.

Wow, i never expected someone to see this much less post a detailed list. thank you for telling me!
-
@Dolan1235 so here are some basic mods that for me are part of gta and can't play without them anymore
(NVR replaced with NVE)For clothes, there is not much options why it could crash or ruin the game so almost all are usable.
For vehicles there is tons of options and I think only way is trying as there may be 10 or 100 mods working for exact vehicle replacement and you have to choose one by your taste. Hardest to replace are the ones that are used in cutscenes not only as a background, means if player open doors, or have passengers etc.

Thank you for linking me to this post.

@ArmaniAdnr One more question, is installing VisualV AND NaturalVision together recommended? Will it look better or worse compared to having either one installed separately? Will it heavily impact performance?
-
@Dolan1235 I don't think it's recommended, usualy you have to choose one, but once I installed VisualV first and then NV, I just replaced some of VV files with NV. TBH if it's better I don't know as I didn't compared it without and with, I just did it straight to don't miss any feature. But with NaturalVision Evolved, I think you would miss nothing without VisualV as the NVE is another level now (:
-
@ArmaniAdnr Thank you I didn't know if I should install both but I think I will go with NVR (I don't want to pay for NVE because its going to eventually be free). Also I wonder if the new "expanded and enhanced" update coming out in 2021 will affect PC graphics as well because there's no way they don't upgrade graphics with the power of the new consoles.
-
@Dolan1235 upgrades always affect archive update.rpf so make sure to back at least this archive to get all mods from there into the new or best way to keep your mods working with newest updates is make a list where you write each file and exact location that you edit in update.rpf so after update you know which files you need bring from old archive to the new one

@Dolan1235 Enjoy fren
Hope you like them ))
