INSTALLATION:
Install the files with OpenIV (http://openiv.com/).
If you can't work with OpenIV, search for tutorials on youtube,
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 new minimap, download this mod by LorenVidican:
https://www.gta5-mods.com/misc/atlas-gta-5-style-map-with-radar-for-dubai-islands
- For my original incomplete 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_2_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.

@Sonicfx07 same problem here..the first 2 hours of installing the mod was ok no problems just 1 crash i think didnt pay attention but after this was crashing like every 10 minutes,after this 2 times when i started up the game and tried to swapp characters crashed and the last time i joined the game just crashed after it loaded,checked all recently added mods files by uninstall them all and the crash problem was still there when finally deleted the Dubai mod and all was ok..although its really nice mod,really nice job congrats on that and would be really glad if this crash problem would be solve @GTA Belgium
@M249GR @Sonicfx07 @koko-5 I don't know what is causing those 2 specific problems (both the crash when far away from map and turn back, and the character swap crash). I have never heard of my mod causing those crashes, although the character swap problem is very common when someone has installed a lot of mods, or has a lot of large mods. Maybe this Dubai mod is a little too large to handle for your game, I'm not quite sure. But this character swap problem is not really caused by just my mod files, it has to be something bigger than that. It's possible the amount of 'heap' your game can handle, is too small in your cases for a proper use of large size mods. I have a few mods listed here below, you can try to prevent this from happening with using them, but I'm not sure it will be fixed. You can try and let me know :) .
Furthermore, there's not much I can do about this I'm afraid, since all mod files are now (since the last mod update) 100% correct as far as I know, and it crashes only for a few people and I just don't know why. Here the mod list you can try:
https://www.gta5-mods.com/tools/packfile-limit-adjuster
https://www.gta5-mods.com/tools/heap-limit-adjuster-600-mb-of-heap

Anyway, thanks for adressing the problems, and I'm really very sorry for this late reply but it's quite a busy time for me now. But I'm working on a reworked version of the Stade Vélodrome mod by me :)
This will be updated soon:

@GTA Belgium still got some random crashes(for example when u try to fast teleport near this area or driving towards this place,like 1 km far just driving and having the camera to this island this happend once ,character swapping not all the time crashes only if im near to this area,its weird even tho i tried all those things provided with the links..just wish that was my hardware's fault that couldnt handle this but its not,im planning an upgrade next year probably but as i see wouldnt get much out of gta V by upgrading my system just some FPS plus nothing more that would help for a heavy modded game its all about the files i think and the way the game have been made with all its limits..do you agree that a really high end pc doesnt matter on those crashes,its all about the files right?
@GTA Belgium please move the map to another location
@GTA Belgium kindly add peds as well along with traffic in dubai islands like in los santos
the game crashing
@GTA Belgium bro IAM a fan of Ur works i have used all Ur models , IAM making a cinematic video in GTA 5 IAM using Ur Dubai maps football stadium but I need crowd in the stadium , can u add the crowd like one that u have made for race tracks stand , or just can u tell me how to add crowd using 3dsmax
Thanks in advance ❤
Any chance this could be separated into individual addon props like with your French Landmarks mod? That would be awesome!
i can finally say i went to dubai lol.....it works great no lag or crash
Anyone know where you can get those dubai peds in the pic and vids?!!!
@GTA Belgium could you make yusuf amir from gta iv tbogt
does this include all the slaves from Asia who build all those buildings or not?
Best High Quality Showcase 🌴

Nice.
but can you make "Makkah al-Mukarramah" city please?
its more beautiful than dubai
how to change the burj khalifa location
Brilliant map, but it's true, it does cause crashes. Maybe something to do with the 22mb mosque when stream limit is 16.2mb? I'm going to test deleting it and retrying, because even on the test server with very little maps, it causes crashes. But beautiful mod nonetheless.
@GTA Belgium where is dubai creek tower?
I remember Vice City affecting my director mode access,the game would load endlessly
@GTA Belgium do subscribe to my youtube channel to see your map in my videos
Please move this map as Liberty City V Remix V 13 is in the same place. I wonder why there is no update but I love this mod but i wish you could move this map so it does conflict with Liberty City V Remix V 13 which just now is in the same place.
