✅ Pros
- Massive coverage—over 70 characters get the 4K treatment
- Community-trusted with 285 endorsements and 33k+ downloads
- Includes Enhanced Edition support, so it's future-proof for GTA V's latest version
⚠️ Cons

- Last updated in 2022—may not be compatible with future GTA V updates beyond Enhanced Edition
For GTA V players who want their favorite story characters to look sharper and more detailed, especially if you're playing on a 4K monitor. If you're a modding veteran comfortable with OpenIV, this is a no-brainer. Skip if you're looking for gameplay changes or if you prefer vanilla textures.

- Make sure you have OpenIV installed and set up with GTA V's mods folder before trying to install this mod.
- If you're playing the Enhanced Edition, grab the separate version linked in the description—don't use the standard one.
- Use OpenIV's Package Installer to avoid manual file placement errors; it handles the rest automatically.
