📋 About This Mod
Ports the Horse Ducking/Dodging mechanism (side to side on horseback), animation, and pamphlet from Red Dead Online over to single player.
Usage:
-
[]Once installed, mount your horse and aim your weapon left or right. While holding aim down, press x and your player will duck to the opposite side of your horse that you're aiming at thus protecting you from gunfire coming from that direction. Aim left, duck right on horse. Aim right, duck left on horse.
Notes:
- [
- []There are some clipping/animation issues with player body and horse which I don't think can be fixed. Also the player's hand and gun. My guess is because the animation was obviously never meant for the single player models. So, sorry I probably cannot fix it. It's not super noticeable unless you're super nitpicky.
-
[]Dead eye will cut out the minute you initiate the maneuver. I may or may not be able to do something about this. Will update if I can.
[]Stamina core has been incorporated so each time you duck your stamina core will drain. If it's too low you will not be able to initiate the manuever until it recharges passed a certain amount.
Installation:
-
[]Requires Scripthook, LML, and Online Content Unlocker. Unzip the file then copy and paste EquineDucking.asi and lml into your game's root directory.
