📋 About This Mod
DO NOT OPEN THE MAP EDITOR AGAIN AFTER THE MAP HAS BEEN LOADED. PED ANIMATIONS WILL GET THROWN OFF, YOU CAN CHANGE THE OPEN KEY IN THE INI IF YOU HAVE A TRAINER THAT USES F5. IF THIS HAPPENS, RESTART THE GAME TO FIX.
This mod takes the 3 empty "for sale" cabins and turns them into mostly functional, fully decorated houses (only available in the epilogue, everything else will work before that). There are multiple custom properties around the map for sleeping/stocking up on food, ammo etc (Blips/wardrobe access coming soon). All beds can be slept in, most of the cabinets are stashed with loot, and there is a working campfire at each house for crafting. I did my best to make everything look as natural as possible. Inspired by RDR1's safehouses.
To install, drop Safehouses.asi into your main RDR2 folder and 'safehouse.xml' into MapEditor\Maps in your main directory. Press F5->Load Map. The latest version of map editor is required
I haven't had any problems with performance/loot spawning in my testing, but let me know if anything stands out.
Known bugs: The weather changes to a sandstorm when first loaded, will go away after a few seconds. Also the chickens might escape. Should be fixed soon.
