V Property Restoration

V PropRestore is a mod designed to restore props that are unable to spawn due to an issue in RAGE's code.

In Grand Theft Auto V, props set to Low Priority in Map Definition files don't spawn.

The solution involved changing those props in the Map Definition (YMAPs) files from Low Priority to Required Priority. This ensures that all of these props spawn regardless of graphical settings.

Since most of these props are minor details, the performance impact is expected to be minimal, while significantly enhancing the game's quality and realism.

Installation Instructions:

A read-me file with detailed instructions is included in the zip archive.

GooD-NTS - For OpenIV and OpenFormats which helped me create this mod

Spider-Vice - For providing tips, discussing the problem, digging through files, and sharing screenshots.

Observations:

While I haven't encountered any unusual prop placements, please let me know if you experience any issues.

The restored props are part of the original game files; I simply processed them with a Python script.

The folder structure within the RPF is straightforward for easier modification.

CHANGELOG:

v1.1 - Fixed an issue preventing world rendering with MP Maps enabled

ISSUES:

Props may not appear with MP Maps enabled.
