NaturalVision Evolved (NVE) is an incomplete visual mod that is currently in early access. Numerous changes were made to environmental weather patterns, lighting system, ambient colors, tonal display, world textures, building models, props, vegetation, and more to blur the line between fantasy and reality.
The goal was to try to make GTA V visually similar to Southern California in real life. To do this, a study was conducted of the regions of Los Angeles (Los Santos) and Salton Sea (Sandy Shores) using hundreds of photographs and many hours of video filming. All this was necessary to create the most realistic visual experience currently possible with the limited GTA V game engine.
