A modified visualsettings.dat to increase the brightness of emergency lights, improve the bloom, and adjust the brightness of taillights, brake lights, and turn signals for more realistic visuals.

The included visualsettings.dat is optimized for the default vanilla graphics. When used with different graphics mods, results may differ.

Settings for VisualV

Settings optimized for VisualV, requires manual file editing:

Open VisualV's visualsettings.dat (GTA V/update/update.rpf/common/data/visualsettings.dat) in a text editor and replace the following lines. Replace the original visualsettings.dat with the modified one.
