Grass that cant be disabled by settings causing FPS Loss
-
I experience heavy FPS loss when in some areas of Paleto bay, I suspect it to be due to some grass I noticed in that area, I cant disable this grass through setting.xml I would even try to change or disable the textures. The problem is I can't find these textures. does anyone know what file or how to disable these.. P.s I have NVE, ENB, reshade and a few other graphics patches.
Please see screenshot images for the grass type and location

Topic has been up for a few days with no response... anybody????

Enb and reshade obviously eats your fps but that doesn't matter since you just want to disable vegetation but the problem is you cant, but there is a mod that can replace low vegetation which is here: https://www.gta5-mods.com/misc/lower-resolution-grass-for-improved-performance if the fps is still low, the only option is disable enb.
Hope it helps

Try using Ctrl+F3 in OpenIV to search for 'v_proc1.rpf', have a look inside the '.ytd's in there (especially the ones starting 'ng_ip_') & if you can find the grass you are talking about, replace it's texture/s with blank/invisible ones.

@Darkwolf_26 tried all that didnt work
-
@a63nt-5m1th cant find these textures at least i shrunk all the image files to 200kb and still nothing
-
used map editor to find them and these grass don't appear even when the show grass option is enabled i can only see them in-game and they cant be turned off with settings

Try this 'procedural.meta' as a test.Also, once you have eliminated any scripts as a cause (rename 'scripts' folder, load game & see etc), perhaps use a process similar to this (from "How to diagnose the issue:" onwards) to quickly diagnostically rebuild your 'mods' folder one '.rpf' archive/folder structure at a time, so you can identify where the issue exists (or eliminate any 'mods' folder files as a cause at least).
It doesn't take as long as you would think, using the 50/50 method outlined here you can usually identify the issue's rough location within ~7 or so loads of the game, & usually find the exact issue with in 10>15 loads of the game max.

@a63nt-5m1th thanks i will try..
The mods folder isn't the issue tried that already,
I haven't tried the scripts folder though I'll see there.
The meta file seems like that could be the biggest lead.. i think the issue is the quantity of grass rather than the texture.. and also this grass doesn't seem as if it is generated by a ymap so a meta seems like the cause will test this tomorrowDo you have this many grass in that area of your game? I don't have a stock gta to test myself

@a63nt-5m1th Thanks man you really helped solve my problem
The procedural.meta was the issue i used yours to test and it removed the bad grass.
One of my modifications or original GTA V Updates(not sure which) changed the grass type and used a very high-quality grass, luckily i found the original in the common.rpf and used that one so i still have grass in these locations just not as much and less quality... see new screenshot

@jerome74 vegetation isn't as perky but I got my frames back 35 - 45 frames
something is locking my fps a bit but that's something for another day appreciate all your help
-
@jerome74 P.S all my settings are maxed except for the additional graphics settings i dont touch those they look messed up with reshade and enb
-
@jerome74
Cool, thought there was reasonable chance it was 'procedural.meta' related, glad it worked

@a63nt-5m1th
Thanks again
