📋 About This Mod

!!!THIS IS A REUPLOAD ON NEXUSMODS BY THE ORIGINAL CREATOR, I'M DOING THIS SO NEWER VERSIONS CAN BE ACCESSED SOONER WITHOUT WAITING FOR THE MAIN VERSION TO BE APPROVED!!!

UPhoria is a mod for Grand Theft Auto V which overhauls and improves the Euphoria physics in the game.

From a lot of tweaking and messing around I can say that I'm happy with this version and I'm ready to release it. If you have any issues or problems please let me know in the comments.

More updates will be coming soon to improve the physics and fix some things, stay tuned.

How to install:

If you do not have OpenIV download and install it at https://openiv.com.

Download the mod and extract the files using any .zip extractor, once you have done that double click (or right click and press open) on the .oiv file in the .zip, if OpenIV asks you to select the game folder set the folder to the one with GTA5.exe in it.

Changelog from current update (1. 2):

Improved general balancing and updated some stuff related to impulses

Fatal wounds wont make them immediately fall to their knees and will now give them some time to balance.

Peppering pedestrians with bullets now have a way lower chance of making them fall over
