-Extended road and highway lods.

-Extended tree and bush lods.

-Extended texture stream.

-Extended car headlights draw distance.

-Extended city lights draw distance and lods.

-Extended small light coronas draw distance.

-Extended shadow distance scaling (optional).

-Extended shadow cascade and hd shadows ((optional).

Installation :

-For a fully experience go to game settings and set all graphics settings to highest.You can exclude "High Resolution Shadows" and "msaa".High Resolution Shadows doesn't make much difference and it loses performance a lot.It also eats extra vram.You can use -Extended shadow cascade and hd shadows ((optional) for high resolution shadows.

- Go to "settings.xml" file in documents/rockstar games/gta v.Find and change default values with mod file values.Save and exit.Do not copy-paste the file directly!

- Put the "visualsettings" file in - common.rpf/data - and - update.rpf/common/data - with OpenIV program.

Notes:

-The mod loses much of its effect if you change the "extended distance scaling" setting in-game advanced graphic menu.Dont change that anymore.If you don't want to take that risk, make "settings.xml" file read-only.In this way, you cannot reset the mod even if you want to.

-This mod give you much more draw distance and lod scale on the city map.If your video card has low vram, there may be graphical issues ,some areas and textures may late load .The game may even close ! You have must 2gb and higher video card for minimum (1-high).I recommend 6gb or higher gpu and 16gb ram for this mod.

-The mod not only increases the vram usage. It also decreases the performance.

-I can run the game with the gt1030 2gb gddr5 graphics card with the 1-high level of the mod without any problems.

-I would recommend rtx2060 and better for 5-extereme level folder - 1080p gaming.

-If you have texture-map loading issues you can use lower mod option.

-QuantV full compatible but natural vision evolved half compatible with this mod.I recommend firstly install natural vision evolved and after install quantV.In this way, you also have the chance to use nve's high-quality textures and assets and quantV's perfect timecycle files.Finally install the extreme draw distance mod for quant.You're done.You can use nve's timecycels.
