  QuantV FiveM — Installation Guide                          Updated: April 2026
================================================================================

QUICK START
-----------
Your FiveM Application Data folder is located at:
  %localappdata%\FiveM\FiveM.app

You can paste that path directly into Windows Explorer's address bar.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PART 1 — CORE FILE INSTALLATION
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  1. Open your FiveM Application Data folder (path above).
  2. Navigate into the [ mods ] folder. Create it if it doesn't exist.
  3. Copy  aQuantV.rpf  into the [ mods ] folder.

  IMPORTANT — Conflict Prevention:
  If you have any other visual .rpf mods installed (e.g. NVE or older QuantV
  builds), remove any that overwrite the following files before launching:

      · timecycle
      · visualsettings.dat
      · graphics.ytd
      · skydome.ytd

  Leaving conflicting .rpf files in place WILL cause crashes.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PART 2 — PLUGINS & NUI SETUP
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  1. Open the [ plugins ] folder inside FiveM Application Data.
  2. Copy ALL files from the QuantV 'plugins' folder into [ plugins ].
     This includes the ReShade-Shaders folder and QuantV.addon.

  3. Choose ONE NUI option and copy its dxgi.dll into [ plugins ]:

      [ NUI IN-PROCESS GPU ON  ]  ← DEFAULT. Use this if unsure.
      [ NUI IN-PROCESS GPU OFF ]  ← Use only for GTX 1000 series or older GPUs.

  Only one dxgi.dll should be present in [ plugins ] at a time.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PART 3 — RESHADE / CitizenFX.ini CONFIGURATION
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  1. Open  CitizenFX.ini  from your FiveM Application Data folder in Notepad.
  2. Scroll to the bottom and add or locate the [Addons] section.
  3. Add the following line exactly as written:

      ReShade5=ID:xxxxxxxx acknowledged that ReShade 5.x has a bug that will
      lead to game crashes

  4. Replace  xxxxxxxx  with YOUR unique ReShade ID.
     To find your ID: launch FiveM, open the F8 console, and look for the
     ReShade ID printed there.

  NOTE: This line is required. FiveM will not load ReShade without it.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PART 4 — MANDATORY IN-GAME SETTINGS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  These settings are required for QuantV to render correctly:

      DirectX:        11
      Shader Quality: Very High
      PostFX:         Very High  or  Ultra

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PART 5 — OPTIONAL PRESETS

  After completing Parts 1–3, you may install any of the following optionals.
  All optional .rpf files go into [ FiveM App Data ] → [ mods ].
