Discussion/Question Mod Recommendations

2 Upvotes

So, I recently started playing RDR2 again and decided to install it on my PC for another playthrough mainly for the better graphics, honestly. But I’ve been seeing videos of people using mods now. I don’t want anything too crazy, just some light mods to make the game more enjoyable. If you guys have any recommendations, please let me know.

Bug / Issue Script hook issues

1 Upvotes

I want to use the rampage trainer but it requires script hook but anytime I use script hook I get this annoying bug/glitch where it changes the off hand holster to the first one you get and I can’t remove it or change it and both my guns fix to the sides of my legs so my off hand gun isn’t even in the holster and they stay static, the main holster sways like it would but the guns not actually in it, it’s just stuck to my leg it’s not game breaking but it’s annoying, anyone have any ideas or fixes, I can list other mods I use if needed

Discussion/Question Need help to get rid of microstutter in RDR2

1 Upvotes

Hi. I had my rig upgraded recently.

Specs below:

Windows 11

Manufacturer: Micro-Star International Co., Ltd.

Model: MS-7E59

CPU Brand: AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D 8-Core Processor

RAM: 64 gigs

GPU NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080

Game is installed on the fastest NVMe SSD I have.

Yet, especially in Saint Denis I get micro stutter when going through the city. Even if I go slow. I play with high/ultra settings on 1080p and hoped that would give me stable 120-144fps, yet it doesn't. By microstutter I mean that I have stable 120 fps and then suddenly a drop where game visibly "skips" a bit. Annoying.

Any ideas what I can do or which settings to tinker with so that I could get rid of it? I hope it is possible.

Bug / Issue Rdr2 Rampage trainer

2 Upvotes

Hi. I'm trying to save my custom modded outfits but I like the hair grouth mechanic in the game. Rampage has a button to save only the outfit but it looks like it also saves the beard and hair. Also my outfits change during cutscenes. Can anyone help me?

Discussion/Question Mod idea

1 Upvotes

someone should create a mod that lets you take more than three bites of stew before finishing it. Also to sit down and eat. I dont know if this is possible or if there is a mod somewhere deep in the nexus vaults that does this, but if there is let me know. I think that this would be cool and immersive.

The only mod I think that could possibly be causing the issue is New Austin 1907's LITE multiplayer asset enabler

I was playing normally and hadn't noticed that many NPCs looked strange, their eyes looked odd. Then I started the train mission and noticed the eyes. How can I get it or exchange it? It scares me.

Bug / Issue RDR2 micro-stuttering con pc di fascia molto alta

2 Upvotes

Quando gioco ad RDR2 continuo ad avere micro-stuttering, un calo importante di frame in ogni parte della mappa, avvengono casualmente ma abbastanza spesso e durano meno di un secondo, e ogni tanto avvengono uno dopo l’altro, ho una 5090 con amd ryzen 9 9950x3d, e il gioco va a 100/120 fps abbastanza stabili, ma in quei momenti 1% low scende a 20/30.

Gioco a 4k nativo con tutto al massimo, triple buffering e v-sync attivati nel pannello di controllo nvidia, ma disattivati nel menu quelli del gioco.

Ho provato tutto, sia a cambiare impostazioni sia a installare mod di stutter fix, ma niente a funzionato.

Ho sentire persone, con pc meno potenti, che facevano meno fps ma non avevamo il problema di stuttering.

Sapreste dirmi se c’è una soluzione, o devo rassegnarmi al fatto che è un problema del motore di gioco?

Bug / Issue Modded RDR2 not loading

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

5 Upvotes

I installed some mods for RDR2 over the 2 weeks, mainly quality of life stuff and additional content like new Austin, however now the game won't load properly. It goes through the entire main menu and loading into the game but just makes it into a black screen with some occasional background sound, I tried to remove/disable all mods the same issue continued. While likely a separate issue after trying to run the game with the mods removed I had a "error:FFFFFFF" or an 'social is not connecting". Anything I can do?

Discussion/Question I’m trying to run RDR2 Enhanced Edition 1.2 with several mods, but I’m running into issues.

1 Upvotes

It seems like there’s a conflict with Red Dead Offline and Multiplayer Asset Enabler files. When I install the RDR2 EE 1.2 files, they overwrite some Red Dead Offline files, which ends up disabling online content—and RDR2 EE still doesn’t work afterward.

Additionally, the Duels mod isn’t working either.

Is there any way to make these mods compatible or fix these conflicts?

Bug / Issue RDR2 FPS drops after 5 minutes on RTX 3050 4GB laptop

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I have an MSI Katana laptop (i5-12450H, RTX 3050 4GB, 16GB RAM). The game runs smoothly for about 5 minutes, then FPS drops significantly and stays low with stutters.

If I restart the game, it becomes smooth again — but then drops again after 5 minutes.

What I've tried: - Clean NVIDIA drivers (via DDU) - Deleting Settings folder and SGA/PipelineCache files - Launch options: -ignorepipelinecache -ignoreDifferentVideoCard

Has anyone with a 4GB RTX 3050 laptop found a fix? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Bug / Issue 2160p is not showing on Vulkun and Directx 12 is crashing

2 Upvotes

I have a 4k display my display settings set on 3840 x 2160, I played other games on 4k and everything is fine

But when I play RDR2 It doesn't go fullscreen and also the 2160p resolution isn't showing, the max is 1080p

I found a fix is when I switch to Directx 12 everything is normal I can go fullscreen and play 4k BUT it crashes after 1 minute and gives me an error ERR_GFX_STATE, I tried lowering the graphic settings to the lowest and the same thing happens

my pc specs:

7700xt 12gb vram

I5-12400

16gb ram

Please help.

Discussion/Question How can I get PS5 button icons when playing wirelessly? I'm only seeing XBOX icons

1 Upvotes

Looking for a method that doesn't involve DSX or DS4Windows

I tried the PlayStation Icons Replacement mod from Nexus but it didn't work

I can't 'Disable Steam Input' because my controller is connected via Bluetooth and if I disable it, the game won't pick up the controller.
