About this project
A modified build of Rehan's Minecraft x GTA V passthrough example, ported to Forge 1.20.1 and wired to Cracker's Wither Storm Mod 4.2.1. Minecraft simulates and renders the storm; a ScriptHookV script that is also a ReShade 6.8.0 add-on composites it into GTA V Legacy's frame using GTA's depth buffer, and nearby GTA NPCs and cars get invisible Minecraft proxies the storm can grab. It targets GTA V Legacy Story Mode only, not Enhanced. You build both halves yourself (Forge bridge with JDK 17, the ASI with Visual Studio 2022 build tools) and download the storm mod separately.
- The real Wither Storm grows, fires tractor beams and consumes things in Los Santos
- Pedestrians and cars caught by a beam are lifted into the air and removed when consumed
- Storm fireballs and skulls cause GTA explosions
- Storm weather, lightning and camera shake carry over to GTA
- GTA buildings and terrain stay intact; no persistent craters
Requirements and setup
GTA V Legacy Story Mode and Minecraft Java 1.20.1 on the same Windows PC, with Forge 47.4.10, Cracker's Wither Storm Mod 4.2.1, JDK 17, a compatible ScriptHookV/ASI loader and ReShade 6.8.0 with full add-on support.
