This mod file fixes the disgusting problem of screen dimming/flickering whenever you pass by any source of light in-game. It removes the eye adaptation effect which is what causes the dimming of your screen.
If you replace your visualsettings with the one I provided then not only do you get rid of eye adaption to remove flickering, you also get brighter emergency lights!
The first screenshot shows me directly below a street light which normally would make my screen go darker when I drive by it and then go back to normal again, but with this mod, when you drive by any light like a streetlight or traffic light for example, it will not dim, therefore making the overall experience much more realistic and less annoying and gets rid of rockstar’s eyesore.
