What This Cheat Does
The Cloudy Weather cheat alters the in-game atmosphere by changing clear skies to a cloudy environment. This can dramatically affect the visuals of Vice City, creating a different ambiance during gameplay.
This cheat is useful for players who prefer a moody setting while driving around or completing missions. It can also enhance the aesthetic experience of your adventures in the vibrant 1986 Vice City.

Good to Know
Use it to create a more dramatic atmosphere for missions or cruising.
Heads up: GTA Vice City cheats can’t be turned off once entered — some keep running until you reload, and a few (especially the character-model cheats) can break missions and cutscenes, so use them on a separate save file. Entering cheats also disables achievements and trophies on the Definitive Edition.
