@JayMontana36 Wow tldr, I'm not being rude just saying lua sometimes works for me and sometimes doesn't, would've been nice if I had the option but you clearly took offence at what I was saying...

@SLY95ZER It's a combination of the way that you said what you said, in conjunction with an abundance of people who are either misinformed (and spreading misinformation) or hating for no real legitimate reasons, it's okay though (just dreadful and tiring for me to always constantly have to explain).

What "Lua" are you using? Like, what Lua plugin/environment mod (and version) are you using, and what Lua script mods (optional) are you using? I've never had any problem or issue where things randomly work or don't work.

If you use a Lua Plugin mod from this site and you still have/use an "addins" folder, then yeah your statement would be correct/accurate (though only in regards to that particular Lua Plugin mod variant), and the problems that you "experience with Lua" would be because you have not migrated away to the newer Lua Plugin mod variant.

@JayMontana36 Then I apologise if I came off as rude, maybe I did what you'd said and put the lua into that directory.

@SLY95ZER No worries it's fine, but yeah I don't create anything for that "legacy" Lua Plugin mod (which uses the "addins" folder, and pretty much nothing that I currently develop will work with it either); I did not add any pre-emptive checks or anything for that into this so you won't get any descriptive errors when trying to use that with this (and it's been a long time since I've done that), so it'd error and not work/function at all if you tried using this with that.

The solution to things not working would be to upgrade/migrate from that legacy/old Lua Plugin over to JM36 Lua Plugin (Lua Plugin for Script Hook V Reloaded), as it solves pretty much every caveat and issue that could be solved, alongside improvements to literally everything that could be improved (it's been rewritten completely from scratch where able).

@JayMontana36 thanks for the answer, but still I hope that somehow it will be possible to add a fix, it really helped many ryzen players to play online on servers

Work greats,thx !!

@daniago No problem!

@2fast4you89 Hey so I've finally just made the FiveM version/variant available and released it over at https://jaymontana36.tebex.io/package/5761894 for the public, based upon this latest current version (2.2).

@JayMontana36
Thank you very much for your job! I will try ! Thank you so much!

why is this obfuscated

You mean (pre)compiled, exactly like all of the DLL and ASi files that are on this site?

its a lua file, not a dll or asi. your other lua mods are also raw code (vehicle theft levels for example)

Yep here we go yet again with the typical bs "because it's this language and not that language" type of discrimination.

And yeah sure, I may have decided to release Lua (script) files in source form that need to be interpreted then compiled then executed (instead of just simply be executed), especially earlier on in the cycle when my focus was more about trying to revive Lua in the singleplayer modding community as a viable and faster and easier alternative to C++ (ASI) and C# (DLL/CS), giving some ideas and releasing some simple basic "example" type of scripts like those (as well as some minimalist ports of FiveM Lua scripts) to showcase that, but I no longer care about any of that, and for this script in particular, it was never designed as such nor was it designed with such in mind, especially as I never originally intended to release it outside of my own testing environments or my own FiveM server. There is quite a bit of backstory to both the development and decisions (and release), none of which I will be discussing.

At the end of the day, the majority of the script developers on this site release (pre)compiled script binaries in the form of an ASI or a DLL file, with the majority of them also not including nor providing any of the source code for any of their releases; why is it suddenly a problem (why are you complaining about me doing the exact same thing as everyone else) when I follow suit and do the exact same thing as everyone else here, "just because it's this language and not that language" type of discrimination when it is literally the exact same thing no matter which way you want to look at it?

There is no response or answer that won't be either ridiculous or discriminatory, so that is the end of this discussion.

@JayMontana36 Would this also work for Nvidia cards or no?

@SnakeSlippers Yes, it runs on all graphics cards regardless of manufacturer.

I've been struggling with this for years. Game runs flawlessly during the day with everything cranked up but at night, particularly during sunsets, my framerate tanks to the high 40's and low 50's and not even 0.500 frame scaling fixes this. I'm running a Ryzen 5 2600 and a GTX 1660 super. Haven't gotten around to testing it but would this mod effectively solve the issue?

Yeah, played around for a bit after installing the mod and after countless hours of searching and testing various different solutions myself, this mod and this mod only was able to solve those awful frame drops at night/during sunsets even with the settings cranked up. Smooth 60 FPS across the board now, even when using the VisualV graphics mod. Out of curiosity, what exactly does this mod do to fix the bug? Is this a case of Rockstar incompetence? And finally, does the regular version impact visual quality in any way?

can u atleast say which natives u used

It removes my amazing bokeh mod because it removes those lights on grounds so no way im using it. If u really need performance learn how to optimize settings that dont change much

It is more so a matter of managing several of the things that are being rendered at any particular given moment by the game in an efficient manner, since the game itself does not do this at all (yes, this can very well be called/considered Rockstar incompetence, because it kind of is). Overall, you shouldn't really notice any negative impacts when it comes to visual quality, when it comes to the vanilla game at least (which is what this was first and foremost designed for, even though it just so happens to work really well according to others with graphics mods and such). The tradeoff here is, certain (very few) visual/graphical mods may not look as "good" or whatever as they "should" (depending upon your tastes or whatever if you really care a whole lot about that, even though it really seemingly overall does not affect or impact the vast majority of the graphics/visual mods users who are using this); this doesn't touch any of your graphical/graphics settings at all (meaning you can run the highest level of graphics with this and it will still do it's job and work well), it more so has to do with unloading or "unrendering" distant things that you either can't see or can't really see much, kind of how MLAM and VLAM and my other LAMs work. At the expense of a little bit of math some good calculations/guessing/heuristics, and in some rare scenarios certain visual/graphical aspects, you achieve a higher or more stable framerate overall, and I may even go forward/through with my next experimental that can take things to even higher levels (potentially with options similar to what the LAMs have to offer). I don't promise or guarantee that I'll release that or offer anything new though, just that I'll try to keep it up to date with the latest versions of the game asap (possibly same day).
