📋 About This Mod

INTRODUCTION

Hi everyone! Let me present you my reshade preset created mainly to enhance NaturalVision Evolved with more realistic lighting and ambient occlusion. If you ever wanted a hybrid of NVE and QuantV then you must try this.

ABOUT SHADERS

RadiantGI and Glamayre effects are used for the lighgting, Blooming HDR for stronger bloom effect. Reflective Bumpmapping for a little better reflections (no you wont get mirror roads) and a little FXAA because the in-game anti-aliasing sucks.

My graphics settings: I play on 6880x2880 ultrawide resolution everything maxed. I use only FXAA because MSAA and TXAA drains the performance really hard.

Attention: Please bear in mind that this preset was created for high resolution, high graphics gaming with RTX 4090 and Ryzen 5800X3D. The pictures and videos clearly shows how it looks on my end. Playing in 1080p resolution with mid-low graphics settings you might experience visual differences.

1. Download the latest ReShade from the original site.

2. Install ALL the shaders by clicking twice on the "Uncheck all" button.

3. Download and unzip the preset(s) into your main folder where your ".exe" is located.

4. Launch the game and press "Home" to bring up the Reshade interface, you can Skip Tutorial.

5. Choose the preset in the upper bar on the interface then press "Select".

6. Enjoy and endorse if you like it!

If you experience black dots and stripes during the ingame menu or on the map, then open the Reshade interface with "Home" and on the "Add-ons" tab tick one of the boxes with long numbers and letters under the depth buffers part. Looks like this: 000000ex000bc45rg.

🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data

A ReShade preset for GTA V that enhances NaturalVision Evolved with more realistic lighting and ambient occlusion, aiming for a hybrid of NVE and QuantV. Uses RadiantGI, Glamayre, Blooming HDR, and Reflective Bumpmapping. Designed for high-end systems, with 24 endorsements and 1,362 downloads.

✨ Key Features

Enhances NaturalVision Evolved with more realistic lighting and ambient occlusion.
Uses RadiantGI and Glamayre effects for lighting, Blooming HDR for stronger bloom, and Reflective Bumpmapping for improved reflections.
Includes a light FXAA because the in-game anti-aliasing is considered poor.
Created for high-resolution, high-graphics gaming, specifically tested on 6880x2880 ultrawide with RTX 4090 and Ryzen 5800X3D.
Provides a fix for black dots and stripes during menus or map by adjusting depth buffer settings in ReShade's Add-ons tab.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Niche but appreciated: 24 endorsements from a dedicated user base.
  • Aims to combine the best of NVE and QuantV for a unique look.
  • Includes a practical fix for common ReShade artifacts (black dots/stripes).

⚠️ Cons

  • Performance heavy: designed for top-tier hardware (RTX 4090, Ryzen 5800X3D) and may not run well on mid-range systems.
  • Visual quality may degrade at lower resolutions like 1080p, as the author notes differences.
  • Requires manual installation of ReShade and all shaders, which can be time-consuming for beginners.
🎯 Is This For You?
For GTA V players who already use NaturalVision Evolved and want a more realistic lighting overhaul with a QuantV-like feel. Ideal for those with high-end PCs (RTX 4090-class) and ultrawide monitors. Skip if you have a mid-range system or prefer performance over visuals.
📦 Install:Medium· 10-15 minutes

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Install ReShade with all shaders by clicking 'Uncheck all' twice to ensure all effects are available.
  • If you see black dots or stripes on the map or menus, go to ReShade's Add-ons tab and enable a depth buffer option with long alphanumeric strings.
  • For best results, use the preset at high resolutions (1440p or higher) and consider disabling MSAA/TXAA to save performance.
