Description

V PropRestore is a mod that aims to restore props that are unable to spawn due to a bug/feature in RAGE's code.

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

I figured the best solution or workaround to this problem was to set all those props in the Map Definition (YMAPs) files from Low Priority to Required Priority.

This would guarantee that all of those props would spawn even if the graphical settings were low.

I also thought that because most of those props are pretty much details. The performance impact would be minimal. With a tremendous increase in quality and liveliness on the game.

Feel free to look at the thread in GTAForums for an extremely detailed post with all the information about it :D

Installation Instructions:

There is a read-me inside the zip with all the details

Credits:

Ttokenblackguy - For discovering the priority bug

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

Dexyfex - For creating CodeWalker, an absolutely amazing tool that sped up the process of making this video.

Spider-Vice - For helping me out with tips, discussing the problem, digging files and sharing screenshots with me.

Observations:

There may be issues. I don't think I have encountered any weird props showing up in weird locations. However, I'd be please to know if there is anything that can be changed.

The props on my end are restored, they are not additions (well, one could say they are). I only processed the original files with a Python script.

The folder structure inside the RPF is simple as to make modifications easier for me.

CHANGELOG:

v1.1 - Fixed an issue that would cause the world not to render with MP Maps enabled

ISSUES:

The props won't show up with MP Maps enabled.
