GTA V – Faster AI Traffic
About
This mod updates the path nodes in GTA V so AI vehicles drive faster and more smoothly around the map.
Basically, traffic moves quicker everywhere — highways, city streets, rural roads, all of it.
How to Install - Please read the ReadMe.txt File that is included.
Required file:
`paths.rpf` - Located in Main Files Folder
Put it here:
mods\update\update.rpf\x64\levels\gta5\
bctls
Adds traffic lights props.
Put it here:
mods\update\x64\dlcpacks
In mods\update\update.rpf\common\data - Look for dlclist.xml and add the following line at the end.
dlcpacks:/bctls/
Steps:
1. Open OpenIV and turn on Edit Mode.
2. Go to the folder: mods\update\update.rpf\x64\levels\gta5\
3. Drop the new `paths.rpf` in there (replace the old one if asked).
4. Close OpenIV and start GTA V (Story Mode only).
Optional Files
popgroup.ymt
Tweaks what types of cars spawn. I made it so
Put it here:
mods\update\update.rpf\x64\levels\gta5\
popcycle.dat

You don’t have to use these, but they go well with the main paths file.
Notes
* Make sure you’re editing inside your mods folder, not the original game files.
* Always back up anything you replace.
That’s it. Load up the game and enjoy faster, more alive traffic.

@Andreyraduta legacy is what i use, but it should also work on enhanced. but i'm not too sure. if you don't mind testing on enhanced and letting us know. that would be helpful.
@chaxils08 The only "Road mod" that I use is the retextured roads that comes with Quant V graphics mod. Other than that I just run some scripts, plugins and addon dlc packs in my game. But I would get to the black loading screen, it would freeze then crash. That was after a replaced the paths file with yours. Nothing else. I hope we caqn figure this out as I have been wanting higher speeds for ai for a while now.
Really great mod! Thanks for creating it, it makes the ai speed more normal instead of going super slow, and the car spawn file fixed my issues with a ton of trucks spawning in traffic with L.A density mod. But as someone said I suggest you upload a preview or comparison video, so people know how different it is.
@dmaddy44 I am not familiar with quant V, i use Visual V and haven't had problem with it. Maybe there is something in quantv thats causing it. test to see if you can run it without quantv. basically rename your current mod folder, and create a new mod folder with just adding this file. and if it loads, then there is something with your current mod folder thats causing it. but if its still not working with the new mod folder, then its something else. let me know if you do that.
@Ahmed77 i did add it - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N98Eu7ayRRw
I have paths.ipl not rpf what should I do? I tried to put the rpf file without replacing anything but it doesn't seem to work
@wgta5mod make sure you are going to the correct directory in the mods folder. check your address and make sure its
\mods\update\update.rpf\x64\levels\gta5
make sure you go to x64 and not common folder.
@chaxils08 Thanks perfect, regarding CPU performance, how does it behave?
@wgta5mod there shouldn't be any negative cpu performance. all it does update node speed flag.
Why are they crashing into eachother every second bro
@DeinPxdoxD can you tell on what street that is happening. or is it happening everywhere.
@chaxils08 Whenever a car stops at a light, some idiot npc slams into them at full speed. And it happens at every light.
@chaxils08 can you also include in this amazing mod the AI intelligence from the drivers.
@DeinPxdoxD i'll look into it and see i can fix that. i did slow down the intersections a bit, can you try the latest version and see if that resolved it for you? please let me know. thanks
@Neuromance i wish i knew how to do that, but i'm not that smart haha. maybe someone else who knows can do it. that would be really cool to have if they were somewhat aware of surrounding. but gtav ai is just program to drive a set path and get to another node.
@chaxils08 maybe the files from the mod DriveV can help you. he maked something like this. the file called "optional Ai improvement"
This is definitely not compatible with Blaine County Traffic Lights right? I assume they edit the same node paths.
@Legendkiller456 it is now. 3.0 version works with it now.
Makes my game feel great and alive, thank you
@chaxils08
Definite crashes on Cayo Perico. Needs to be fixed.
well done
