How to remove trash and litter over procedural.meta

  • M

    hello,
    is there maybe a mod that deletes all of trash in los santos?
    I'm so tired of garbage lying in various places in Los Santos.
    Maybe someone know the mod (if exist)?

    @Michualgood the trash and empty bottles etc are controlled in procedural.meta inside update.rpf

    @Michualgood if you think just deleting files is a good method to mod your game, then I wish you best of luck with your endeavors

    @Michualgood
    OpenIV > Ctrl+F3 > 'Search 'in "mods" folder only' > Search for 'procedural.meta'

    You should find 2 locations:

    ...\Grand Theft Auto V\mods\common.rpf\data\materials\procedural.meta

    ...\Grand Theft Auto V\mods\update\update.rpf\common\data\materials\procedural.meta

    The one in 'update.rpf' is the one loaded by the game. If it doesn't exist, then the 'common.rpf' one will be loaded by the game instead.

    Instructions:

    • Once found, drag & drop 'procedural.meta' to your Desktop etc
    • Open it with your text editor of choice (Notepad++ is better than plain old Notepad)
    • Find & delete the sections ('<Item>' to '</Item>') of the stuff you want to remove & not have appear ingame:

    Example: (removing 'prop_barrel_02a' from seabed)

    If you are not sure what something is, use the name in the '<ModelName>' line ('prop_rub_boxpile_08' etc) & search for that using the Ctrl+F3 Search Box in OpenIV & you will find it's model/'.ydr' & be able to open it & have a look at what it is.

    If you want to remove absolutely everything from 'procedural.meta' (decent framerate increase possible (+10>15fps)), make the file look like this & then save & install it:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<CProceduralInfo>
  <procObjInfos>
  </procObjInfos>
  <plantInfos>
  </plantInfos>
  <procTagTable>
  </procTagTable>
</CProceduralInfo>

    Alternatively, there is a Reduced Pavement Pollution mod that might suit your need.
