NaturalVision Remastered (NVR) is a "work-in-progress" visual overhaul mod. Numerous changes were made to the environmental weathers, lighting system, ambient colors, tonemapping, weapons system, select textures and much more in order to blur the line between fantasy and reality.



The goal was to try and make GTAV look visually similar to Southern California in real life. In order to achieve this, research on the Los Angeles (Los Santos) and Salton Sea (Sandy Shores) regions was conducted using hundreds of photos and hours upon hours of video footage. All of this was necessary in order to produce the most realistic visual experience currently possible with GTAV's limited game engine.



The aesthetic behind NaturalVision Remastered was inspired by Forza Horizon, Watch_Dogs, GTAIV and a variety of other games.

Numerous visual details were taken from those titles and remade in GTAV's various weathers.



Unlike most graphics mods, NaturalVision Remastered does not rely on ReShade for its looks. This allows for players to enjoy a massive boost in performance.



There are numerous optional add-ons included with this mod, ranging from a depth of field modifier, motion blur enhancer, LSPDFR related tweaks and much more. This gives users the ability to customize the game to their liking.



It also includes an optional ENB and ReShade package which produces effects such as improved vehicle anti-aliasing, sharpening, deband and more.

Install guide is included in the super detailed "README" file within the download.



The README is currently available in the following languages:

English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Korean and Chinese



Please read everything carefully in the readme before commenting about an issue. There is a good amount of useful information in there that should help troubleshoot your issues and also answer your questions.



IMPORTANT You must put your GTAV display brightness at 50% for the best possible experience.

———————————————————————

With NaturalVision Remastered, your in-game performance will be about the same as vanilla.



The only thing that matters is how you currently run GTAV without mods and the FPS you receive on average.



If you plan on using ReShade then you may experience performance loss, but it's not necessary to use it anymore.



There is little to no performance loss with ENB by itself, so feel free to use that.

Optional: Install VisualV before installing this mod

FAQ:

Q: Why are there rainy weathers?

A: Because it looks cool. You can change the weathers in the trainer or by editing your own settings.

Q: Why do I see dark patches on my windshield?

A: Because you are using the wrong version of this mod. This is a rain mod and uses a different system to handle rain than other mods such as Realistic Water Two, so there will be some issues with windshield reflection at night until they fix their own system. However, this mod is still fully functional without these issues, and you can still use it to create rain-free windshield reflections if you wish. If you want full functionality, use Realistic Water Two and download the optional "Fix Rain" pack which will fix all rain related issues with this mod and make it fully compatible with RW2.

Q: How do I get rid of all of these annoying clouds?

A: You can change weathers
