Bravo, no, bravissimo to Beardo Benjo for rediscovering my first open world mod! Turns out it can still be played today, with just a few preliminary operations to roll back the game to the last version before the publisher decided they were selling too many additional copies to VR lovers ;-)

The fully story of what happened is available here.

Have fun watching Beardo Benjo playing [redacted to keep lawyers happy] and remember to smash all the like/subscribe/bell buttons on his videos, because VR needs people like him, and because he can make NPCs fly high in the sky (and try to shoot them with his RPG while they’re still burning) like no other!!!

GTA 5 VR is one of the BEST VR MODS in 2024! // Quest 3 PC VR Gameplay

GTA 5 VR is still one of the very BEST VR mods in 2024 despite it not receiving any updates or enhancements since Rockstar shut the project down two years ago! I actually thought you couldn't play Grand Theft Auto 5 VR anymore but thanks to the guys over in the Flat 2 VR Discord channel I found out you can still get this mod working with a few additional steps and it's just as much fun as I remember. You can play the entire GTA V story in VR and free roam to your hearts content, the only thing you CAN'T do is play online, that portion of the game is off limits with the VR mod. If you want a near endless and incredible VR game that will keep you laughing and smiling for hours upon hours then GTA V VR / GTA 5 VR is what I'd recommend, easily one of the best VR mods available today. VIDEO GUIDE on exactly how to install the GTA V VR mod in 2024, this method still works perfectly & this video is what I followed to get back into the game today: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cr0BA714LZM GTA V VR Mod Download: https://github.com/LukeRoss00/gta5-real-mod/releases/tag/r7 GTA V Roll Back Files: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/y4q4fkg4vlq1xbfq80v04/GTA-V-1.0.2612.1-STEAM.rar?rlkey=6bm36specyxwx6sp12gtx4m7o&e=2&dl=0 GTA V Rockstar Launcher Integrity Bypass: https://github.com/kagikn/ExeIntegrityBypassAgainstRGL/releases/tag/v1.0 GTA V Trainer (Optional): https://github.com/MAFINS/MenyooSP Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSzUG-hFZgaKpYA6w2WS8sQ/join If you want more VR gameplay videos, VR game reviews & VR first impressions then make sure to leave a like, drop a comment down below & hit subscribe to be rewarded with a constant stream of endless content made with love and care.

Incredible how the publisher thinks these mods are bad. I would never have bought GTA5 without your mod. I don't play flatscreen games (I don't see the point). Thanks Luke for all that you do!!!!!

josh russell

This totally works did my on my setup yesterday I played for like 4 hours best luke mod I tried yet

Nisch

I'm so excited to see this. Now I just need to get it working with my motion platform and I'll be in heaven.

martinsan

It took a few hours to set it up properly but if you get it right (RTX 4090 and a Quest 3 recommended for decent fps figures ) GTAV in VR is the one true triple A game we all want. What could have been if Luke was allowed to maintain this legend of a mod.

Active Frog4100

It is genuinely impossible to understand the thinking behind the Cease & Desist on this. They do not have a VR offering that was undermined by the mod, they gained sales that are directly attributable to the mod, yet they blocked the mod!

James Dombro

Has anyone tried this through Steam Link on Apple Vision Pro? Is that possible?

ILoveGirlz

Mick Manchester over on youtube has done a wonderful job of keeping this one going as well, along with the other one - the western that also has a number in the title that I won't mention - in case anyone is interested. The western doesn't even need a rollback; it just works! (in-game settings are tricky to access though) Fun Fact: The western in VR is my absolute favorite form of entertainment ever

ILoveGirlz

I know right?? Utterly ridiculous! "Look I made your game many many times more fun" "SHUT IT DOWN NOW OR ELSE"

Brandon(Post Maester)

No clue, I doubt most users have a Vision Pro :) Looks like someone got SteamVR games working by porting ALVR with the Vision Pro, so maybe try that route.

Brandon(Post Maester)

Yeah, AER2 would be great in this :( Still the best open world VR driving experience.

ILoveGirlz

Right! --and hey, don't get me wrong - I do love the one Beardo's playing here as well - almost as much as the western. I was playing them both literally yesterday. Another fun fact: my experience with both of these games, thanks to Luke and Mick, have exclusively been in VR. I don't even know what either game is like in pancake. Over 200 hours logged into the western too

L. J.

Same as you Stephen. I can't go back to flat since 2016. I was remembering when people were so mad Alyx was VR exclusive and were hoping for a flat mod.

ILoveGirlz

Not gonna lie though, when I saw "ye olde virtual modde" I was CERTAIN that Luke had finally, at last, VR-modded Kingdom Come: Deliverance and I about shat my pants. .....by the way, PLEASE do that game!

Brandon(Post Maester)

It is really hard to go back to playing a game flat after you have been up close and inside that world in VR, as long as your system gave you a decent experience anyways. I tried playing CP flat with RT maxed out and everything and it just felt.... flat :)

ILoveGirlz

I can get CP to look damn near photorealistic in flatscreen. It's actually just a LITTLE ugly - not to mention the slightest bit wonky - on my system in VR, with the specs set how I need them to be. But even then, I absolutely cannot and WILL NOT go back to playing that or any other of Luke's games in pancake. Like you said - I've been IN those worlds now. Luke, you've ruined me for flatscreening!

Tomo

I am so looking forward to Ghost of Tsushima after Horizon !! :)

D S

It is a cryengine game I believe...could be an easy leap from the FarCry family of mods

D S

Yes! Bravo Beardo Benjo and Luke Ross!

Chill Blinton

shoutout to Mick - found his videos shortly after the TAKEDOWN THAT SHALL NOT BE NAMED and he’s helped me keep my western and chaos-city lights on 😂

Florea Calin

He convinced me to finally try it. And it's freaking awesome. Soooo much fun and mayhem in vr.

Fearganainm

Has anyone encountered while revisiting ye olde modde, a kind of swimmingly double vision? It only happens with the menus and the start page. Weird issue I never came across before.

Brandon(Post Maester)

Not that I remember but I haven't played for a long time. Won't be any further progress or support for this title unfortunately :(

Fearganainm

Thanks Brandon. I'm aware of the current situation, just thought other members might have encountered similar issues on revisiting the mod. I think it's an open xr issue. I'm on WMR platform. Samsung odyssey + I got it working in game just graphical glitches in menus and start menu.

azur29

Hello Everybody, i have just finished FarCry 4 and want to thank Luke for the VR immersion. It was ammazing. Today i put on my animal skin... just for feedback, The snipper rifle shake was to hard to control with my G2 (in flat mod it's more easy to use). Thanks to brandon too for it's help.

Brandon(Post Maester)

Yeah, it is just because you are so zoomed in in VR, that tiny head movements are more exaggerated. I don't think Luke will be able to separate just sniper scopes and make them not zoom in correctly. Thanks for the feedback and so glad you enjoyed the game :)

Lazarus

I'm still having an issue trying to get this to work with Cyberpunk 2077 GOG version. Looking through the RealVR logs I found 2 errors. Failed to apply "CP2077CreateDevice Patch" and Failed to to apply "CP2077Interact1 Patch". Any ideas what is causing this issue?

Fearganainm

Spent hours trawling through it recently...

Mário Vargas

Can I use on rockstar club version ?

Brandon(Post Maester)

Can you please put a copy of your RealVR64.log file on pastebin and post the link here. I'll pass it on to Luke. He should be home from his honeymoon today and hopefully will be an easy fix. Thanks :)

Brandon(Post Maester)

You would have to look it up or probably find a way to roll back to a similar version of the Steam one. I would ask in the Flat2VR discord.

Lazarus

Thank you. I deleted everything, removed all my mods and reinstalled the game. It's launching in VR now, but damn it's shimmering like crazy. No idea why. Regardless of what resolution I use, it shimmers like crazy. Using 1/2 render with a 4090.

Brandon(Post Maester)

Try turning down the deblur sharpener in the main tab of the Real overlay. It defaults to max which can cause a lot of shimmering if you are using extra sharpening from Reshade or DLSS. Higher resolution and using DLSS Quality or DLAA will also help as they both have less offensive forms of antialiasing that doesn't conflict with AER as much. Really is too bad they didn't include other forms of AA for this game but it has quite a bit of aliasing without AA so it is also understandable. You are able to turn TAA off in the engine.ini file but although it is very clear there is a lot of aliasing. For some games like Far Cry no AA can work decently at high resolutions but not this game. The city just has a lot going on and lots of edges so looks pretty bad with no AA. You can try lowering your headset HZ to lower the fps requirement for 1/2 also if you need more headroom to increase resolution. Also try switching to 1/3 or Legacy, though Legacy will have motion jitter it has less overhead also because it is not generating extra frames. Its all about finding balance and if you like the smoothness of AER2 or the higher graphical fidelity of Legacy. There is also Mono mode but it is just the render from one eye so no Stereo 3d with it.

Lazarus

Thanks, I'll try those options. It currently look like ants are crawling over everything.

Timothy Bracegirdle

Running a fresh install of the game, extracted folder to the x64 folder, but when i try to run the bat file nothing happens, no errors, just doesn't run

Brandon(Post Maester)

Hmmm, try running as administrator. That is odd. Have you tried running any bat files before on your system?

Timothy Bracegirdle

I recently tried getting the GTA realconfig to work from videos on YouTube, specifically from our good friend Beardo Benjo and that config files runs fine, cmd prompt opens and I can select a preset. It just seems this one doesn’t want to run

Brandon(Post Maester)

That is really strange. Have you tried going back to 11.2 from 11.3? You are using 11.3 currently right?

Brandon(Post Maester)

Been so long since I played that one, is there a 2d screen option for it in the overlay?

Seth Domings

Wish you tried implementing the new versions of the mod to GTA V and RDR2 on github. You make so much you would think you could have one of the two be a side project.

Cercata

Horizon is comming ...

Brandon(Post Maester)

Yup, already got it downloaded so I can get ahead testing settings and so forth :) Plus I want to see it cranked to the max on a 4090! Looks like a really good quality port from the Digital Foundry review.

Timothy Bracegirdle

Ok, so i downloaded 11.2, 11.1 and 11.0 all did the same thing just didnt run. Just to see if it was a my systems problem, i dragged the bat file from the GTA mod and it prompted me to overwrite the Realconfig.bat file as expected. When i ran that file it opened and asked me to press L, M, H, to which point i pressed H and it says "The system cannot find the path specified", again as expected as it was for the GTA mod but at least the file ran

Brandon(Post Maester)

With the DMCA, there will be no further updates as to not risk any further action and end up with GTA taken down from Github as well. Unfortunate but not worth the risk.

zer0

It's like... on the horizon. Total grandfather of jokes right there lol. T'will be awesome!

Jim Morris

...sooo... Horizon then ;) I know you're looking into it... dino fighting in the first game is still my favourite VR experience... just wanted to give you my full support and fingers crossed

Brandon(Post Maester)

That is the plan :) The second game is much better in my opinion. It is unfortunate that you don't get any really good mounts until the Sunwing late in the game. Maybe someone will increase mount speed on PC though :)

Darren Stoller

I'm waiting to pull the trigger on buying the game....

Brandon(Post Maester)

Nothing wrong with that. I bought it off CD keys for about $50. Since I already played through the initial game, I am just speed running through to unlock everything. That way we have access to most everything for testing. I will probably stop once I have the Sunwing unlocked though so I can do the whole DLC in VR.

Darren Stoller

I'll be getting it on cdkeys too, always cheaper than steam. Looking forward to it mate

Cercata

Don't play it flat, be patient, wait for the mod !!!!!

Brandon(Post Maester)

Nah, I want to make sure I have most everything unlocked for testing. That way we can be sure it works well. Luckily someone already put a save up on Nexus that is most of the way through the story so we can just use that :) I will probably still unlock the arena though and grab/upgrade some of the higher end stuff. I have already played through it, but it is such a good game. Going to be great in VR!

J

Bro his is kinda misleating you have people pay 10 bucks for the VR system but when you buy then you are notified that its only limited to certain games? wth

Brandon(Post Maester)

If you are referring to the games that were taken down, read my reply to your other comment. If you mean that the mod only works with certain games, then that is pretty much how mods work in general.

Patrick Harrison

We need an anon to pick up where Luke left off with GTA5 and RDR2

J

I don't know what to tell you. I spent more than 2-3 hours just trying to find a youtube video to help and nothing. I read your other comment and you are completely misinterpreting what I am saying. I insanely regret paying 10 dollars for this service andI am going to notify all of my friends to steer the hell away from this service. You can tell Luke that as well. Idk how you guys take pride on things like this.

Lazarus

Is it already in testing?

macstrat

this whole situation still perplexes me.

Brandon(Post Maester)

Gamers owning their games or any rights to them is actually increasingly in jeopardy :( It is not cool at all. We should be able to own and mod games we buy freely. Multiplayer/online of course is different because of competition and cheating. You should be able to do what you want with your personal copy of a single player game though.

macstrat

the nice thing (and i use that term loosely) is that at some point they will stop updating the games so whats out is whats out till they issue a remaster...

Seth Domings

He could've uploaded it on github. The only thing that made Rockstar dmca him is making profit on it since it was on his patreon. Nothing stopping him from updating it on github

Brandon(Post Maester)

Unfortunately not currently. By the way, do you know if there is any particular solution for the Crystal and the HUD in games being transparent. It ends up being semi-transparent or kind of opaque..

Cameron

I think your reading comprehension skills are the problem here J.

SciDadAndPups

If your friends are like you then it is good that they steer away.

Crispy

hahahahahah
