Reb's FireFight - Realism Overhaul (DEPRECIATED) 1.0.8

(8 reviews)

THIS MOD IS DEPRECIATED. GTA5 KEEPS HAVING ITS FILE STRUCTURE UPDATED AND IT REQUIRES THE MOD TO BE REBUILT FROM SCRATCH.

DESCRIPTION

Frustrated with all firearms being shot like laser guns? Being able to walk around and sponge bullets without much need for cover?

'FireFight' is my optionally script-less solution to GTA5's lackluster combat. Now, firefights put you more in touch with your environment, and impose a feeling of higher stakes.

CHANGES:

- Scaled damage between peds and player: bullets are equally dangerous to both, no more bullet sponging. Players can also be killed with a headshot at any distance.

- Damage to humans based on caliber and cartridge type.

- Mitigated ranged damage reduction; depending on cartridge type bullets only lose half of their power over several hundred meters.

- Varying projectile velocity, based on firearm and cartridge type.

- Removed tracer effect on conventional weapons.

- Significant bullet spread; unsupported weapons, particularly pistols, no longer shoot like lasers.

- Increased weapon recoil.

- Correct (often increased) rates of fully automatic fire.

- AI is less accurate, particularly when moving.

- Double Barrel Shotgun shoots birdshot.

- Penetration system that affects *all* kinds of cover.

- Red hit marker removed.

- Flashlights no longer add accuracy bonus, suppressors no longer reduce damage.

- Gunflash effects made to be more realistic.

- 20% chance to die from weapon wound, regardless of damage. (Script)

- Less melee damage, realistically longer melee combat.

COMPATIBILITY

This mod will overwrite mods that change weapon and combat behavior files. Some features of other mods like bullet penetration and blast effects can be used with this one, just install theirs first and overwrite with mine. ScriptHookV is necessary to run scripts.

How to install:

INSTALLATION

1. SETTING UP OPEN IV/MODS FOLDER

Open IV is an application that allows you to open GTA game files, an modify them manually or with OIV installers.

- Create a folder called 'mods' in your GTA directory. Copy and paste your 'update' folder and 'common.rpf' file (located in the Grand Theft Auto 5 folder) into the mods file. This may take some time, and have 25 gigabites of space free to do this. This prevents you from ruining your base game files.

- Install OpenIV.

- Set up OPEN IV, by clicking on 'Tools' on the top toolbar. Click on 'ASI manager' from the drop down and 'install' all three items prompted.

- Click on 'Edit Mode' in the top right corner of Open IV. You're ready to mod.

2. INSTALLING MOD

- Using the file path, go through their respective folders in mods and "add" the files to their appropriate directories with the green 'plus' button. You will be overwriting vanilla files in your 'mods' folder. You are now ready to play!

UNINSTALLATION

Either delete your mods folder, or overwrite the mod files with vanilla files extracted from the vanilla 'update' and 'common.rpf' folder.

Bullet penetration

KNOWN BUGS:

- Sniper Rifle has issue firing sometimes if deployed during a cutscene in campaign. Not sure yet if it is the mod or just my end.

Please report any game-breaking bugs or suggestions to the mod page, or in the discord.

I'm having a issue with the mod when using a normal pistol everything is fine but i fire one bullet from an AR and my game just crashes and closes on me. Does anyone have a fix or work around

A really good job with this one. Works completely fine for me and turns a one man army cowboy film into actual gameplay. Been lacking this since LCPDFR's hardcore mode feature.

Keep it up!

Much appreciated man!

Yes it will. This mod has correct rates of fire.

Will say, this is by far the best weapon meta mod I've used so far. This coupled with RGS-Sound Only has made my gun fights really something else. Keep up the good work Rebel!!

PS: If I knew how to make oiv installers, I would for you as install is a bit of a pain after having to do it 5 times in a row for troubleshooting the new Tuner update lol

@RebelSchutzeis there a way to just install just the health adjustments and not the weapon spread or the ammo adjustments?

I believe that's in the ped data. Its been a while so I'll have to refresh myself to the files. You will have to understand however that the human player and peds have different health levels, and player health seems to be only affected by mods that use scripts. I did my best to make weapon damage a 1:1 ratio with players and peds, but separating the two will possibly cause a disparity.

Thanks again! Could you please merge the materialfx.dat from this mod with this one?

(What it does)

Spoiler

slightly decreases the grip level of all drivable surfaces and comes with a matching wheelfx.dat (for accurate tire mark length) to give you a more challenging and realistic driving experience plus the realistic feeling of sliding to a stop when you slam the brakes.

I may be able to. I'll have to compare the two and see which are different. I only changed penetration stats, so it shouldn't be hard to change yourself.

I'd have to open it up with Open IV but I don't think the mods would conflict. If you're changing the attributes for the combat rifle you'd be changing the attributes for every vanilla weapon and it would be a massive undertaking/too much of a hassle to make compatibility patches just for reskin mods.

The thing is though, its not a reskin, it's an addon weapon

Car lamps and tyres are indestructible 😞

Semi automatic guns fires automatic when holding down fire button.

I don't know if this is caused by this mod.

I can't seem to get this mod to work! Initially I tried to install it manually, but none of the recoil effects actually made it into the game; the only thing that actually seemed to come in was the muzzle flashes. Now I've tried to use LML to install it, but that doesn't even seem to work either. Am I doing something wrong, or is this just not working in the current game version?

Not really sure what that issue is at all. I'm about to make a clean install on my current game version to see what's going on, these stupid gta online updates generally has me wipe my whole mod setup.

The muzzle flash changes are in the same files as the ballistic changes, so you should get either all the effects or none unless you are using a gun script. My mod files overwrite vanilla files without the use of scripts.

I will check but it could be other mods. I usually use the realistic driving V mod and have noticed any issues.

Do you plan on creating a version which includes only the muzzle effects, without the weapon damage?

I'd love to see an option for removing the crosshair, would make it more challenging and also more useful to go in first person

It's great but stopped working with the last update of the game.

The game doesn't open and displays a window attributing it to corrupted or missing files. By using the backed up files changed by this mod, the game runs.
