About this mod

V PropRestore is a mod that aims to restore props that are unable to spawn due to a bug/feature in RAGE's code.

In Grand Theft Auto V, props that set to Low Priority in Map Definition files don't spawn.

The best solution or workaround to this problem was to set all
those props in the Map Definition (YMAPs) files from Low Priority to
Required Priority.
This would guarantee that all of those props would spawn even if the graphical settings were low.

Also, most of those props are pretty much details.
The performance impact would be minimal, with a tremendous increase in
quality and liveliness on the game.


Installation Instructions:
There is a read-me inside the zip with all the details

Observations:
There may be issues. I don't think I have encountered any weird props showing
up in weird locations. However, I'd be please to know if there is
anything that can be changed.
The props on my end are restored, they are not additions (well, one could say they are). I only processed
the original files with a Python script.
The folder structure inside the RPF is simple as to make modifications easier for me.

ISSUES:
The props won't show up with MP Maps enabled.
