Discord Comunity
This mod lets you bond with Online Legendary Animals in Red Dead Redemption 2 by editing metapeds.ymt and working alongside the Dog Companion mod. It uses the online animal database to avoid interfering with offline wildlife. Requires Rampage trainer for spawning and scaling.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 523 endorsements and over 21,000 downloads, so it's proven to work for many players.
- Adds a fresh twist to the companion system by letting you bond with legendary animals, which is a unique feature.
- The mod is designed to avoid conflicts with offline wildlife, so it's safer for your base game experience.
⚠️ Cons
- Requires the Dog Companion mod and Rampage trainer, so it's not a standalone solution and adds setup complexity.
- Editing metapeds.ymt is risky—if you have other mods that touch that file, you'll get visual glitches unless you merge them.
- You'll need to manually scale larger animals like bears and alligators down to dog size to bond, which is a clunky workaround.
For RDR2 players who love the companion system and want to bond with legendary animals instead of just hunting them. If you're already using Dog Companion and Rampage trainer, this is a natural extension. Skip if you don't want to mess with file merging or trainer commands.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to place this mod at the bottom of your mod list in Lenny's Mod Loader so it takes priority over other mods.
- When spawning large animals, use Rampage trainer to scale them down to dog size before bonding, then you can reset the scale after.
- If you have other mods that edit metapeds.ymt, merge the files using a tool like OpenIV to avoid rubbery-looking peds.
