📋 About This Mod
IMPORTANT FOR ROCKSTAR EDITOR USERS: Before taking a screenshot or recording a video, Alt+Tab out of the game and then enter back in to improve the visibility of raindrops even further - I assume this is a bug but may be helpful for improving your content. Replaces the dirt texture on cars with a raindrop texture. Disclaimer: Performance will probably take a hit using this mod, especially with the 8k version and was made mainly for use in screenshots/videos rather than actual gameplay.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- High-res 4K/8K textures make rain on cars look crisp and realistic
- Huge download count (146k+) shows it's a proven, popular visual upgrade
- Simple texture swap—no complex scripts or dependencies to mess with
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2017, so it might not be compatible with the latest GTA V patches
- Only affects the dirt texture on cars, so it won't change rain effects on the ground or windshield
- The Rockstar Editor visibility bug requires an Alt+Tab workaround for best results
This is for GTA V players who want a quick visual boost to rain effects on vehicles, especially those using Rockstar Editor for screenshots or videos. It's also great for modders who appreciate high-resolution texture replacements without gameplay changes.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you use Rockstar Editor, Alt+Tab out and back in before recording to get clearer raindrops
- Since it's a texture replacement, make sure you have a mod manager or know how to replace game files manually
- Check if the mod is compatible with your game version, as it hasn't been updated since 2017
