📋 About This Mod
Experience true spaghetti western with this euphoria physics overhaul mod that recreates RDR 1's physics from the ground up and adds a bunch of new additions to enhance combat gameplay
Ever since GTA 5 was released, the euphoria physics have been a major downgrade compared to games like MP3, GTA IV and RDR 1. RDR 2's euphoria physics have improved a ton, but it still feels very repetitive and rather boring.
This mod brings the feeling of euphoria physics back from RDR 1 and goes further beyond that by adding a lot more complexity and variety to shootouts
If you want to grab other mods along your way such as Playable Sadie Adler or Playable Micah Bell, feel free to check out my brother's mod page which is GJGamingBro. He makes mods not only for RDR 2, but other games as well.

FEATURES:
• No Air Restriction when flying super fast during ragdoll & RDR 1 like falling gravity
• Every weapon and ammo type will affect differently on how the NPC will react (WEAPONS. YMT REQUIRED)
• RDR 1 Falling Reactions. Falling behaviors are fluid and flexible, allowing more variety
• RDR 1 like gunshot reactions. NPCs no longer stumble to the same direction and they spin when shot in the shoulder area. They also react dynamically and gunshot reactions are fluid
• RDR 1 Rolling Reactions. No more rigid movements!
• Advanced InjuredOnGround behaviour. The NPC will reach for the exact wound where they have been shot on instead of reaching for the stomach all the time
• More improved and diversified legshot reactions. NPC's will stumble or fall depending on the bullet/weapon (WEAPONS. YMT REQUIRED)
• Improved On Fire behaviors. NPCs stumble in agonizing pain
• Every single shotgun affects differently on how the NPC will react and the NPCs now spin more violently (WEAPONS. YMT REQUIRED)
• Improved behaviors when bailing out of a wagon
• RDR 1 like knockout reactions
• Improved the NPC reactions caused by arrows and added different behaviors to other arrow types (WEAPONS. YMT REQUIRED)
• Alternative versions! Want the deaths feeling more realistic? Want realism mixed with fun? I got you! Versions such as Instant Drop On Headshot and Fall To Knees On Death (or both combined) will give you exactly that!
• Improved explosion behaviors & distance of flight when near an explosion
Compatible with: Ped Damage Overhaul, Red Dead Offline, WhyEm's DLC, 1899 Firearms, WhyEm's BloodLust & basically any mod at this point (excluding mods that use physicstasks.ymt). WILL REQUIRE VERSION. DLL (Lenny's Asi Loader) AND W. E. R. O - AUTOMATIC COMPATIBILITY PATCH, if you have a mod conflicting with W. E. R. O's weapons.ymt file.
A massive thanks to LMS, Bolmin & Senexis for letting me use some of their Red Dead Offline files! Without them, i wouldn't be able to implement different reactions to every weapon and ammo type into this mod
Massive thanks to the following mod authors for letting me add compatibility to their mod/agreeing on a merge:
WickedHorseMan
WhyEm
Maverick
Also huge thanks to AnymYo for a lot of the discoveries made so that I can bring you the most advanced mod to date. A lot of struggle went through making and continuing to make this mod to fit your preferences and to give you more options, so if you like my mod, definitely consider endorsing and perhaps providing feedback and letting me know what you like the most about W. E. R. O. Thanks for downloading! This mod wouldn't be possible without you guys and AnymYo for helping me crack the file and unlock it's full potential! The amount of support you show to this mod definitely means a lot to me and pushes me to continue this project! Thanks again
