Birds No More - What? Why?

More pedestrians and traffic mod by Lupin is great

but it unintentionally spawns more birds as they

count as peds in the game and alot of birds

depending on which traffic preset you choose.

I got fed up with the sky being covered with an

army of birds everywhere so with OpenIV I

seeked to get rid of them myself so that I can

enjoy Lupins mod without the birds ruining it.

Really it's just a simple popcycle.dat edit that

anyone could do in Notepad++ I know, but none

the less I'm sharing it for those that might want it

or incase it comes in handy for other mods that

unintentionally increase the bird spawn counts.

Cheers.

Please make sure you have the latest 7zip

or WinRAR installed to extract successfully.

Install:

ⓘ Make a backup first of your popcycle.dat!

Use OpenIV and insert/replace popcycle.dat

to update.rpf > common > data > levels > gta5

Birds_No_More_00 :

All bird related variables set at 00.

You will not see any more birds spawning

around you everywhere you go anymore.

Birds_No_More_01 'Minimal' :

All bird related variables set at 01.

Note this doesn't mean just 1 bird but rather

you might see 1 - 10 birds around you.

What else?:

If you already have a modified popcycle.dat,

You can do this yourself In Notepad++.

Open popcycle.dat and search for birds.

For example you will find

"Birds_Countryside 20",

changing 20 to 00 or 01.

for desired effect.

Repeat the desired value for all entries

containing birds.

This can be a tedious task to do manually.

TinyTask may be able to help you in automation.

Things to know / Issues:

- Bird ambient sounds will still play regardless

if there are birds or not.

This isn't something I know how to fix

nor am bothered by.

- Ambient seagulls sitting on the rocks at the

beaches remain.

(but fly off when scared by the player).

- Nothing else I know of.

Let me know if you get any issues with this mod.

I'm not a experienced GTA modder at all.

This was a personal mod that I'm sharing here.

Update changes:

0.2 - Re-zipped package in an attempt to resolve issues for those getting errors when extracting. Tested working with latest WinRAR & 7-Zip.

Special thanks to Lupin and his mod:
