✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community backing with 60 endorsements and nearly 12k downloads
- One mod covers all three games, so you don't need separate installs
- Actively maintained—last updated November 2024
⚠️ Cons
- Only works with version 1.113, so if you're on a different patch it might break
- UI mods can conflict with other radar or HUD overhauls—check your load order
- No screenshots or detailed feature list in the description, so you're going in a bit blind
For GTA Trilogy players who miss the classic radar and want a more authentic retro feel. If you're happy with the remastered UI or use other HUD mods, this might not be for you.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure your game is updated to version 1.113 before installing, or the mod won't work.
- If you're using other UI mods, install this one last to avoid overwriting conflicts.
- Back up your original radar files so you can revert if you don't like the look.
