📋 About This Mod
To access Online weapons (Navy Revolver and Elephant Rifle):
You would need a mod that adds these guns into story mode (Ex. Red Dead Offline), and a mod that unlocks online content is needed, recommended mod is LITE MULTIPLAYER ASSET ENABLER.
When playing with RDO/Whyem always have this mod prioritize/Overwrite, as the weapons.ymt are already merged.
All adjustments made are kept in thought to be as realistic as possible (Reload speeds, Fire rate of fannable revolvers, semi auto pistols, etc) But still making Arthur and John the world record holders 🤪🤪 and have the toughest wrists on the planet to withstand the recoil.
MAIN CHANGES:
- Fire rate greatly increased on all guns.
- Reload speed greatly increased by pure speed or by bullets per load, on all guns.
- Weapon damage (scales with ammo type), Camera recoil (scales with ammo type), and Bullet force revamped to match their IRL counterparts.
- Draw speed and Weapon Switching speed has been greatly increased.
- Reticle spread is greatly reduced.
- Camera FoV when aiming is increased on all guns for quality of life.
- Double barrel shotguns are now more realistic by drastically increasing the fire rate (since double barrel shotguns have separate triggers)
- Double Barrel guns reload with both bullets/shells going in, as well as the Double Action and Schofield Revolver (3 at a time for schofield).
REVAMPED 1. 1. 2:
- AI Firerate thoroughly adjusted.
- Added a bit of firedelay throughout all semiauto guns, for AIs not to have crazy firerate.
(But still currently not recommended to pair w mods that add dual wielding to AIs, unless you want a challenge)
- Fixed Worn condition Navy revolver values not applying.
- General finetuning.
- Increased Lancaster Repeater ammo capacity from 14 to 15 to match its irl counterpart.
- Slightly decreased Cattleman Revolver firerate in deadeye for it to not bug sometimes.

- Throwing knives can now tag up to 5 times, tomahawks up to 2.

- Fixed Deadeye Painting Bug.
- Rebuilt the fire rate from the ground up to the 3 cocking values in weapons.ymt for a way smoother firerate look and feel.
- Weapon Damage, Bullet force, Camera Recoil strength has been changed depending on the real life main cartridge counterpart of each gun.
- Weapon Damage has been adjusted to be generally low as no one gets immediate brain death from a foot shot. Aiming at vitals is very much encouraged. Go for the balls.
