*GTA V Dubai Islands Mod Standard Version by GTA BELGIUM*
Grand Theft Auto: Dubai Islands brings some of the most recognizable buildings from the Middle East and beyond to the game Grand Theft Auto V! This mod contains multiple islands including a Palm Jumeirah replica, an airport and even the Yas Marina Formula 1 circuit from Abu Dhabi!
This is the second version of this mod. There is a VIP version for 1$ including the Dubai Creek Tower, and Abraj Al Bait building from Meccah. This VIP version is available on Patreon, and will be linked to on the website https://gta-belgium.com/
CRASHES SHOULD NOW BE FIXED 99% WITH THE LATEST 2.0 CRASH FIX UPDATE
Changes in V2.0:
- Added more random props, and bridges between the islands.
- Dubai International Airport replica added.
- Minimap is now included, but will be only compatible with 4K Satellite View Map by Designerappz: https://www.gta5-mods.com/misc/satalite-view-map
- Some new buildings: London One Canada Square (not really Middle East but still good looking), a random large building.
- The 1$ VIP version will have an added Abraj Al Bait Meccah Royal Clock Tower (interior with Kaaba) and the planned Dubai Creek Tower (height 1300 meter).
- Deleted unnecessary collision files for better performance and reducing crashes.
- Reducing some unnessecarily large 4K textures and replaced them by 2K textures without ingame visible quality loss.
- Re-importing Bahrain World Trade Center without z-fighting faces, with reduced polygons for better performance and less irritating 'flashing textures'.
- Editing and improving shaders and textures on some buildings for less problems with strange colored glass glitches.
- Editing normal directions on some buildings for a visible better quality, without strange lines and shadow glitches.
- Added lights in Luzhniki Moscow World Cup 2018 stadium, which will light up at night.
- Added a Freddie Mercury Statue inspired on the one in Montreux, Switzerland. Located near Dubai Emirates Towers and Rose Tower.
- Some buildings now have LOD versions, which will reduce possible lag and the game will have less chance to suffer from random crashes.
Possible future changes in a next version:
- Adding more traffic paths and correcting existing traffic if possible.
- Adding more details, more mansions, more props...
- Making LOD versions on more buildings to reduce crashes for some users.
- More buidlings or statues, towers...
- Whatever comes up on my mind or on yours: you can always leave a (realistic) suggestion!
IF YOU WANT THE TRAFFIC PATHS TO WORK BETTER, YOU MAY NEED TO DOWNLOAD THE 'NO BOUNDARY LIMITS' MOD.
BELOW ARE 2 DOWNLOADS, CHOOSE ONE OF THE TWO. I THINK THEY DO EXACTLY THE SAME...

This map mod now contains:

A random building, random houses, a mosque, 2 small bridges, 2 large bridges and 2 yachts.
I know Russia and China and of course the UK and Switzerland are not really Persian/Arabian,
and neither is Turkey in fact. But I think it's all a great addition to this mod, with an extra touch!
Burj Khalifa is converted from a GTA IV mod by 'Metalwarz'. Many many thanks to him for the GTA IV version!

there are a lot of good tutorials.
- Extract everything from the .zip file
- In update/x64/dlcpacks create the folder 'dubai' and paste the dlc.rpf (located in this download: dubai folder)
- In update/update.rpf-common-data edit the file dlclist.xml:
Search for the last 'dlcpacks:\...\' and paste this new dlc code line after it:
dlcpacks:\dubai\
- In update/update.rpf-x64-levels-gta5-paths.rpf add the 2 files in the 'traffic paths' folder in this download.
'nodes393.ynd' and 'nodes395.ynd'.
- For the minimap, first download Designerappz' 4K Satellite view map radar mod:
https://www.gta5-mods.com/misc/satalite-view-map
Install it, then replace 2 times 2 tiles:
'minimap_1_0.ytd'

'minimap_sea_1_0.ytd'
'minimap_sea_2_0.ytd'
Those are included in the folder 'minimap for Designerappz' 4K Satellite view map' in my .zip file you extracted.
Again, many thanks to Designerappz for letting me edit 2 tiles!
WARNING: The minimap is NOT complete because a large part of the Dubai Islands map is out of GTA 5 standard bounds.
READY!
For Z@gor's Burj Al-Arab, you need to install it as an addonprops.
Therefore you will need addonprops mod by Meth0d and quechus13.

PLEASE KNOW THAT A GOOD PC IS REQUIRED, AND FPS DROP IS POSSIBLE USING THIS MOD.
THE FILES ARE PRETTY LARGE (THOUGH I REDUCED IT)
AND IT'S VERY POSSIBLE A 'NORMAL DECENT' PC WILL NOT BE ENOUGH TO RUN THIS.

PLEASE KNOW THAT A GOOD PC IS REQUIRED, AND FPS DROP IS POSSIBLE USING THIS MOD.
THE FILES ARE PRETTY LARGE (THOUGH I REDUCED IT)
AND IT'S VERY POSSIBLE A 'NORMAL DECENT' PC WILL NOT BE ENOUGH TO RUN THIS.
If you still have any problems or the game crashes, please tell me,

@wyvernone good catch on the itypDepArray. :) Probably something is not getting loaded that way, though, so the author may need to have another look at this.
@wyvernone I have sent you a private message here, regarding a fix for players whose game is crashing due to Yas Marina circuit.
@GTA Belgium Why does the game crash and stop running as soon as I go to the specific location on the map?
@GTA Belgium Can you do the Singapore mod pls? Also add the Marina Bay circuit.
@GTA Belgium Thanks for sending the test ymap file but that doesn't fix the crash. However, I loaded your map into codewalker, and by elimination found that the yasmarina_79-82.ydr would crash codewalker. When I remove those four ydr files the map works great in codewalker and GTAV! no big missing gap in the Yas Marina race track and that race track is nice!
@GTA Belgium Also just some feed back on the Yas Marina GP track, I don't remember the corner apex bollards and brake distance indicator boards are solid objects on the real race track. They would be deadly if hit at high speed :-) Love those ripple strip on the turn apexes and exits.
@wyvernone "Thanks for sending the test ymap file but that doesn't fix the crash. However, I loaded your map into codewalker, and by elimination found that the yasmarina_79-82.ydr would crash codewalker."
Thank you for your work on this! It is highly appreciated.
Also, @GTA Belgium, can you implement wyvernone's fixes, please?
@wangsihantiancai @wyvernone @meimeiriver and everyone for whose game crashed.
Thank you for the help on this wyvernone, it's probably 99% fixed now. The new crash fixing version is now uploading. All who downloaded the premium version, can now download again from the link they got on Patreon. A new premium version is up. If you lost the link you can contact me!
@GTA Belgium Can you download this mod from that website so you can make a Mod Called '1995 Ferrari 412T2 (Add-On)'?
Copy and paste link: https://www.asrformula.com/mods/rfactor2/ferrari-412t2-1995-2/
@GTA Belgium Thanks. I can confirm that the fixed version now works great and no longer crashes on my machine.
@GTA Belgium Can you do F1 World Mod?

this is sublime
Works better but if you go in certain areas of the map it crashes
@GTA Belgium I think there might still be a small bug in the map. I have no boundary limits installed and usually when i fly over the city at a certain height it crashes... other than that it works flawlessly when Im driving around but when you're in a plane it starts to crash in certain areas of the sandbox of GTA.especially when you fly far out. This can be a problem for those who have vice city or maps that are farther out
The best map and best installation
@GTA Belgium Hi bro, I'm a huge fan of your Dubai Map mod. It's brilliant. But I just have one request, can you please shift the location of this map to some other place other than the south-west of Los Santos because your map overlaps with ryanm2711's Vice City Map Mod. This leads some weird things like Dubai's buildings merging with Vice City's roads. I'm waiting eagerly for your reply.
@GTA Belgium Glad for this new update from your mod, buddy
I only think this map is too close the game's original map. So close, that my yacht from the GTA Online that i use in SinglePlayer Mode, because of it's location, it's undermeath the map's airport.
The location from your map is affecting the use of my yacht, and i like it's location because it stays turned to the sea.
If i could put it ther on the ocean, but i can't.
The Rockstar is made the prefabs of the yacht's interiors around the map already. and put my yacht on the ocean is impossible, because there's no prefabs built over there.
So buddy, if the use of this new version from your map, is now requiring the use of the NoBoundaryLimits mod, i believe if you change the location from your map to some mile away from Los Santos, i think the traffic path is gonna work normally.
I know if you messing in the location of the map, it means you gonna have to messing in the traffic path, and maybe, in the satélite minimap, the what is gonna be hard of course.
But your map is too close the game's original map, it's affecting the location of my yacht that's undermeath the airport's take off track. And by the way! I'm sorry about my delay in give my answer to you about that yacht that i've promissed to you, to put on your map!
The ymap is ready, buddy, with all collisions, and if you still being interested in my help to leave your map more beautiful, i can send it to you.
The yacht's location is close the Bahrain Building.
If you still being interested at my mod, just leave your email address over here, and i'll send it to you.
Thanks!
@thiagoandradevitoria @RJ-7 Hello, excuse me for the somewhat late reply. I see you both ask me to move the map. Let's just say, me myself i will not do that. I do appreciate your requests and feedback for sure! But here are some reasons on why I will not move the map anymore:
- I consider this project as as good as completed, maybe some small improvements later;
- I'm currently working on another big GTA V map mod, it's maybe the largest project I've been working on after this Dubai map. I would like to keep this project as a kind of surprise so I will not yet say anything about what it is, stay tuned! :) ;
- I've found work in real life so I got less and less time for mods, unfortunately...;
- The big problem with this is also that i would have to redo all traffic paths from scratch, and probably they won't even work when finished;
- Lastly, you both would like me to change the location, but some other people would like to just keep it in its place. It's personal, it depends on the situation whether you like the location of the map or not.;
Those are the main reasons why i would like to keep the map in place.
If you want you can move the map yourselves, for personal use. You need Autodesk 3dsMax 2014 or 2015 or 2016 for this.What you need to do is not difficult but it seems like a lot of work. Prepare yourselves for a lot of sh*t down here:
- Decide where you would like to have the map. You can see and decide the coordinates on this website: https://www.gtagmodding.com/maps/gta5/
(move the black/red arrow to your location in the sea and check the x-y coordinates). Example: x = -5350.957 ; y = -1782.113; x is from west to east (horizontal on map), y is from south to north (vertical on map).
- The standard location where the center of Dubai map is located at the moment, is approximately (x = -2500; y = -1250). You will need to calculate the offset of my location, to your own chosen location.
For the example i gave above, the offset would be:
x: -5350.957 + 2500 = -2850.957
y: -1782.113 + 1250 = -532.113
(- and - is +)
- Download YTools on this website (tool by skylumz).
- Use the 'Ymap Mover' on the tool, open my .ymap files from my mod (extract using OpenIV) and enter the offset results you just calculated for x and y, not z, just leave z at 0.
- Now import the new ymap files back with OpenIV.
- The models are in place now, let's do the collision using 3dsMax. Import my .ybn files with Openformats .obn method using Gims Evo by 3Doomer.
- We need to move the collision mesh files with the offset. When imported, click edit -> select by -> name. Then, in the select by name menu, we need to make sure to only display the 'geometry' and NOT the 'helpers'. So make sure that none of the icons are selected except from the geometry, (which is usually a circle i think). Then, in the same menu, click on the first geometry entity and then hit CTRL + A to select all other geometry entities at once. Hit ok, then right click on one of the selected geometry entities, and click on the small black square next to 'move'. This opens a menu.
- Now, just enter the x and y offsets in the Offset:World section. Make sure you don't enter '+' before the number if you have a positive value or it won't work, and if you have a negative value don't forget to include the ' - ' sign before the number, of course. Hit enter, all geometry is now moved.
- Then (make sure you still have selected all objects), go to hierarchy menu on the right which is usually the third icon. Click on 'affect pivot only' and move all pivots to x=0,y=0,z=0. You can just put the '0' in the x y z fields all the way down on your screen, but just make sure the icon left of 'x' there, says 'absolute mode transform type-in' before you move the pivots.
- Now we are ready to export the collisions with Gims Evo, and import then back with OpenIV.
- I think that's all, I hope I didn't forget anything. Yes this looks like a lot of work and probably looks like Chinese or Swahili, but if you follow the steps it should work I think. You can always let me know if you have any problems or don't understand.
Enjoy! And Thiago, I really appreciate your effort with the yacht! You can send me a private message here and I will take a look, maybe I can include it in the map mod and of course i will credit you. We will see!
Nice map,works well and simple to install.Jesus is my Lord and Savior!
Nice
