📋 About This Mod
This mod will fix the annoying issue for keyboard users where if you start running/sprinting, the only way to get back into walking is come to a complete stop. This ruins the immersion for me so I made a quick fix for it and share with other people who finds it as frustrating as I do.
Before: pressing shift key will toggle running, but pressing shift again will not do anything. Must come to abrupt stop to start walking again.
After: pressing shift key will toggle running, pressing shift again will put you back into walking with a smooth transition animation.
Require Script Hook RDR2
Install:
Simply drag Pools.asi into your game directory
