MaxedV Graphics Overhaul – Legacy Edition (v1.3-ALPHA)
By Maxed — Latest Release: 02/21/2026
MaxedV Legacy is a performance-focused graphics overhaul for GTA V: Legacy/enhanced Editions.
It improves lighting, weather, timecycles, reflections, and post-processing for a cleaner, immersive, and realistic experience — all without ENB or Reshade.
Key Features
Expanded timecycle improvements across multiple weathers
Subtle volumetric streetlight effects for night immersion
Fixed over-bright streetlight coronas
Improved sky color balance and atmosphere
High-quality reflections
Visual differences most noticeable in Cloudy and Overcast weathers
LodLights.rpf tweaks for sharper distant city lighting
vfxfogvolumeinfo.ymt adjustments for realistic fog volumes
v_traffic_lights.rpf tweak for white traffic lamp emissions
Lightweight and FPS-friendly
Compatibility
GTA V Legacy Edition only (Steam / Rockstar / Epic)
Single-player only — DO NOT use online
System Requirements
Minimum: GTX 1050 Ti / RX 560, 12 GB RAM (30 fps target)
Recommended: RTX 2060 / RX 6600, 16 GB RAM (60+ fps target)
Installation
Backup original files.
Enable your mods folder.
Replace timecycle XMLs in mods/update/update.rpf/common/data/timecycle/
Replace visualsettings.dat in mods/update/update.rpf/common/data/
Replace weather.xml in mods/update/update.rpf/common/data/levels/gta5/
Replace lodlights.rpf in mods/update/update.rpf/x64/levels/gta5/
Replace vfxfogvolumeinfo.ymt in mods/x64a.rpf/data/effects/
Replace v_traffic_lights.rpf in mods/x64h.rpf/levels/gta5/props/roadside/
Close OpenIV and launch GTA V single-player.
Note: Outside the city, some weathers may appear slightly over-blue.
For best immersion, turn Motion Blur OFF and avoid more than 2× MSAA for performance.

@MaxedDev , You’re really doing an excellent job, I hope you’ll continue supporting it.
Yeah... sorry for throwing shade I dunno why I did that.
I see many people use filters on their graphics mod's images to make them look better, so blamed you which isnt fair on you.
Great job on this mod the graphics look amazing, better than any other graphics mod ive seen honestly
what planet is this? I’ve never seen a navy blue sky before.
@mcshithead sorry about that buddy! I’m actually working on an old LCD, so there might be some color mismatch because of that. This release is more of a testing version — I’m actively improving it and fixing things as I go. More updates are coming soon with added features and visual polish. Thanks for your patience!
@fin4y1 Thanks! Really appreciate the support 🙌
The next update will include high-performance .fx shaders for ReShade — things like contrast, brightness, RGB tweaks, vignette, and more — all written in HLSL so users can fully customize the visuals to their liking. Plus, a dynamic screen lens effect that reacts to in-game weather for added immersion.
Right now, I’m deep in volumetric cloud math, implementing it in C++ for max performance — i hope my RX 560 4GB survives the render of volumetric clouds without turning into a space heater 🔥☁️😅
also iam doing some random math to fake rt on non rt cards,if succeded will make yt video😁,though not immersive as real rt !
Stay tuned — I’m working on palms, city lights, trees, grass, and a bunch of other world details… basically a full visual remake in progress! 🎮🌆
@JammyBoi141 Hey, no hard feelings at all — seriously appreciate you coming back to say that 🙏
I totally get where you were coming from; there’s definitely a lot of over-filtered previews out there, so your reaction was understandable. I’m really trying to keep my showcase as close to real in-game visuals as possible — just raw work, no fluff.
thanks!
can you do one for legacy plsss
@BunnyGaming making oiv installation files and will be uploaded 3pm!
thanks
i love you
@BunnyGaming yeah,added leagacy Maxedwhitestreetlights and thin coronas for more imersion,at night time! and furtunately legacy version for some reason running well than enhanced! cloudy and overcast version give more fps than vanila game,iam finding the reason if found exact reason may i implement and chnange those sections and value to boost fps without effecting quality in other weathers,(though quality will not be effected)!
@mcshithead thanks ! MaxedVEnhanced is also (WIP) with modification from scratch, with true raytracing (because of dx12(d3d12) backend!
@BunnyGaming Legacy Uploaded!
@PigeonMASTER-- Legacy Version Uploaded with more improvemts!
@MaxedDev Hell yeah, now i can give a review
@PigeonMASTER-- yeah! though its testing version, thanks!
photos are either very blurry or low quality, hard to tell if its worth it or not
@Abdulrhman1 downlaod the mod! honestly you will be amazed by the mod! if combined with any road texture and vegetation mods! and yeah currently the best weather is extrasunny!
