✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-trusted with 3,739 endorsements and over 112k downloads
- Open source—you can dig into the code or contribute
- ScriptHookV-style API makes it familiar for GTA V modders
⚠️ Cons
- Not tested on Epic Games version—could be a gamble if you own it there
- Requires manual setup and an injector, not plug-and-play
- No built-in examples beyond the sample project, so you'll need to code or find mods
For RDR2 modders who want to run .asi mods and are comfortable with manual installation and injectors. If you're on Epic Games, you might want to wait for confirmation. Skip if you prefer simple drag-and-drop mod managers.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Create a 'scripts' folder in your RDR2 directory and drop .asi files there
- Run loader.exe before or after launching the game—either works
- Check the GitHub sample project to see how to structure your own mods
