Old Gen Visual 5.8

This mod restores various graphics elements from the PS3/X360 versions of the game.

Main changes:
– Timecycle.
– Lens flare.
– Lightning, light pollution, clouds and other miscellaneous visual settings.
– Bokeh, damage effect, lens flare and water foam textures.
– Snapmatic filters.

Optionals:
– Alternative Lens Flare: based on a few old gen pre release screens and videos, this optional changes the color of two flare animorphics from yellow to blue.
– No Fog Volumes: this optional removes the fog/glow around certains places of the map (Downtown LS, Sandy Shores, Fort Zancudo, etc). Note: this optional is unnecessary if the shader quality is set to anything lower than high.
– No Lens Artefacts: this optional disables the blue lens artefacts that are rendered from the very high/ultra Post FX graphic setting. Note: this optional is unnecessary if the Post FX quality is set to anyhing lower than high.
– No NGCoronas: this optional disables an additional layer of the corona texture emitted from light sources such as vehicles headlights and street lights.
