NEW VERSION 1.2
Made nights stronger, darker. Overall less contrast but a stronger mid tone allowing for a nice mid blue sky but still extra sunny on the sidewalk, buildings etc.

A visual enhancement focusing on realistic lighting and color based on this footage of LA:

For optimal realistic visuals my settings should be used with the excellent timecycle and visual settings mod "Damned n Hancer Graphic Extreme Eye Candy Graphics" by GamingDamned which can be found here:

This won't drop your fps in fact you should gain roughly 2-5 extra fps.

INSTALLATION:

1. Download and use OpenIV to install the Damned n Hancer Graphic Extreme Eye Candy Graphics mod ( link at top of page ) but do not install the Bonus Reshade mod.

2. Download "ReShade + SweetFX 2.0" at http://reshade.me/.
Move the SweetFX folder, ReShade64.dll, Sweet.fx, ReShade.fx into your root GTA V folder.

3. Rename the ReShade64.dll to dxgi.dll

4. From the SunCrush folder Move the SweetFX folder into your root GTA V folder and say yes to all when prompted to merge/copy over.

Now you can start the game!, the scroll lock key will toggle the effect/mod on and off. I recommend the in game brightness be set to around 40 %.

Do not run Fraps as it tends to crash the game sometimes.

Also I recommend turning off DOF in game since there is a better and more subtle DOF in the Damned n Hancer mod. Will gain some fps too!
