📋 About This Mod
What this mod does?
This mod allows you to start bar fights inside all of the saloons available in game, including Strawberry, Annesburg, and Emerald Ranch Saloons that you can restore with mods. This mod also allows you to perform environmental finishers on more objects inside saloon and outside of saloons to make bar brawls more like in Red Dead Online.
Uses barbrawls.meta to start the bar fights.
BarBrawls.asi is just used to make the bartenders flee.
Doesn't use barbrawls.meta. Bar brawls are handled by the BarBrawls.asi.
Unlike barbrawls.meta:
- Female NPCs can join the fights.
- NPCs are forced to use fists.
- Everyone inside the saloon will join the fight (except bartenders).
- Uses online bar brawl mission scenario points (environmental flourish points). For example, you can now perform table smash animations on non prop objects like Valentine bar counter or you can throw people over the rails of Valentine saloon. Enable EnableRDOSaloonEnvironmentalFinishers in config file for this to work.
- Put BarBrawl folder into "lml" folder.
- Put BarBrawl.asi to your Red Dead Redemption 2 folder.
- I added Strawberry, Emerald Ranch Morningstar saloons to the file. So you can install the mods that restores them and start a bar fight inside of them.

- If you don't want this feature to work on certain saloons just delete them from barbrawls.meta.
- Bartenders will flee the saloon when the fight
