Ped Damage Overhaul V makes gunfights in GTA V feel more realistic, brutal and dynamic. NPCs now react more naturally to damage, stumble when shot in the leg, scream, squirm, or bleed out instead of dying instantly.
Every encounter feels unique, adding immersion and unpredictability to your shootouts.

• NPCs go down in 1–5 torso shots based on weapon type and armour

• Randomised damage outcomes to keep every fight unpredictable
• NPCs bleed out slowly after fatal injuries
• Lower accuracy and performance as NPCs take more damage
• Disarm system lets you shoot weapons out of enemy hands
• NPCs stay on the ground for random durations when shot
• Unique pain sounds and voice reactions depending on their condition
