📋 About This Mod
YOU HAVE TO INSTALL RDE BEFORE USING THIS MOD!
Current Game Version: 1. 0. 3889. 0 (Legacy) - Current RDE Version: 4. 1. 5
This Mod is the definitive way to enhance your experience, bringing a ton of improvements and fixes to both RDE and the vanilla game.
Enjoy a new reworked and rebalanced wanted system, which delivers an increasingly hard but fair difficulty together with the addition of many law enforcement agencies (some new and some brought back from our beloved RDE 3. 1. 7.).
Play again the story mode of GTA V, now with complete RDE support for all main and side missions, activities and even random events. A lot more of these missions have been edited to allow the use of custom peds and vehicles added by RDE and this mod, pushing a more immersive experience while also keeping it "lore-friendly".
