A Pipeline Set is one of Rockstar's custom sections.


Binary structure

The section only consists of an 4-byte integer which can have one of three different values. This value will determine which of the engine's rendering pipeline to use for an atomic.

  • 0x53F20098 – Render pipeline used for buildings with Reflection_Material_(RW_Section)reflective materials]].
  • 0x53F2009A – Render pipeline used for vehicles.
  • 0x53F2009C – Render pipeline used for night vertex colors.

For example if the data is 0x53F2009A a specular material can be added to a non-vehicle object. Primarily this is used for vehicle upgrade parts and some cutscene objects. Vehicles are using this rendering pipeline by default and do not need a pipeline set. It is not possible to add specular or reflective materials to a player, pedestrian or other 'skinned' models.
