Description
Bandit Hideouts is a standalone but upgraded version of all the AMJM Transport mod bandit features, created by crossed99.
Both crossed and Gunter Severloh created the Bandit Hideouts mod, but Gunter maintains and updates the mod
with crossed occasionally helping with code where needed.
LittleBigSmoak maintains and updates the Hideout Locations map for each update to the mod.
Features
Bandit Hideouts
The Bandit Hideouts mod adds many new hideouts across the RDR2 map for the player to discover and clear out.
Each hideout ranges in the number of bandits, but you can define in the ini of the mod how many bandits
a hideout will have, what gang will spawn there and how many reinforcements will come if any,
even if zombies will spawn there instead of bandits.
Hideout Locations Map
The hideout locations map is a high resolution map of the RDR2 world you can download and use as a reference to
see where all the hideouts, & ambush locations are at in the world.
The legend on the map will tell you what region a hideout or ambush location is in, what gang is there, each hideout/ambush
spot is marked with a colored skull icon to represent a hideout, and an X to represent an ambush location,
both a numbered and listed in the legend accordingly. Icons on the map will indicate their exact locations.

Ingame Blips & Icons
Hideout Locations Blip (icon)
A blip (icon) of a house with a skull inside it, will show up at the bottom left corner of your screen
it means a hideout has spawned in and is nearby.
If you pass by a hideout without attacking it, the map blip (icon) will disappear once your out of range of the hideout.
If you attack and clear the hideout then the blip on the map will be removed and your screen until the hideout timer is up.
You can disable this icon if you wish through the included bandit hideouts.ini
Default spawned in hideout map blip
When a hideout spawns in, by default this icon will be showing on the map at the location of the hideout,
the player has 3 other choices of map icons they can use if they want to change it which can be done through the ini
Persistent Blip (icon)
The Persistent blip icon will show on every hideout location on the map whether your near a hideout or not,
if you clear a hideout the blip icon on the map will be removed until the spawn time for that hideout has returned.
The persistent blip icons have their own icon type vs the one on screen. The icon can also be turned off in the ini, and
only the blip icon of a hideout will show on the map when the hideout spawns in.
Types of bandit hideouts
Each bandit hideout can be a house, camp, cabin, abandoned building, cave, mine, fort, ruin, and other places.
Hideouts will spawn bandits in by chance when you're nearby, this means that if set in the Bandit Hideouts.ini
you set the chance to 100 then each time you come close to an area where a hideout would be then bandits
will spawn there for sure, the lower the chance then it becomes random or less.
Cleared hideout message
A small feature by default is if you cleared a hideout a message will show on the screen saying
"You have cleared the hideout!"
you can disable this in the ini if you wish.
Earn money from clearing hideouts!
Yes you read that right, after killing all the bandits in a hideout, you will earn a random
amount of money ranging from $25 - $150
You can customize the amount you want to earn in the ini or set it to 0 to disable it.
Cleared hideout respawn
Once you clear a hideout you can set in the ini the cool down of how long before they respawn again.
If you set the respawn to 1 for example then in one hour from when you cleared the hideout bandits will spawn in again.
Hideout bandit/gang types
Each hideout will be populated with gang members for the area the hideout is in, for example:
- Valentine area will have O'Driscoll members or a generic gang.
- Lemoyne/ Rhodes area will have Lemoyne Raiders, and a generic gang.
- Annesburg area will have Murfree gang members.
- Saint Denis area may have either Nightfolk, or a generic gang.
- Tall Trees area you will see the Skinner brothers gang.
- New Austin area you will see the Del Lobo gang.
- Grizzlies West (snow region) area will have a generic gang.
- Grizzlies East (snow region) area will have a generic gang.
- Guarma will have the Cuban Army and Nightfolk.
Disable individual Hideouts and Ambush points
This feature allows the player to disable any individual hideout and ambush point in the mod through the included ini
all you need to do is locate the hideout you want to disable through the downloadable map and then change the number from a 1 to a 0.
There is a list of all hideouts and ambush points in the ini.
Custom Gangs in hideouts
Each hideout listed in the ini for the Disable Individual Hideouts list can either be disabled, or changed so it spawns another gang.
The gang types to choose from are the following:
// Gang Type Reference //
- Generic gang - 7
- Murfree Brood - 8
- Lemoyne Raiders - 9
- O'Driscoll Boys - 10
- Skinner Brothers - 11
- Del Lobo gang - 12
- Nightfolk -13
- Cuban Army -14
- Ku Klux Klan - 15
- Wapiti Warriors - 16
- United States Army - 17
- Laramie gang - 18
- Micah's gang - 19
- Angelo Bronte's Mob - 20
- Cornwall Goons - 21
- Braithwaites - 22
- Gray Family - 23
- Foreman Brothers - 24
- Bounty Hunters - 25
- Pinkertons National Detective Agency - 26
- Chelonians - 27
- Vampires - 28
Here is an example hideout in the ini that is listed in the Disable Individual Hideouts list:
ENABLE_ABANDONED_FACTORY=1
- With the setting at 1 the hideout spawns its default gang.
- With its setting at 0 the hideout is disabled and wont spawn.
- If the number is changed to a number from either 7-28 seen in the list above, then that hideout will spawn that gang based on the number.
For example if we changed the number to say
ENABLE_ABANDONED_FACTORY=18
then the Laramies gang will spawn at that hideout instead of the default gang.
Here is an article on how this works in more detail with a video demonstration/guide
https://www.nexusmods.com/reddeadredemption2/articles/435
Custom Gangs in Regions
A feature where you can define what gangs will spawn in what regions for hideouts, a list in the ini of all the regions
or areas on the map, each region has a default number, the number represents what gang will spawn in that region.
From the reference in the ini, you can change the number for the region for whatever gang you want to
spawn at the hideouts in those regions. This feature is disabled by default.
Exact or random number of bandits in a hideout
The amount of bandits you can encounter in a hideout will be defined in the Bandit Hideouts.ini
there you can set the minimum and maximum numbers you will encounter, this is for all hideouts.
If you set the number for both min/max the same you will get that exact amount, if you set the number to
exceed the default random min and max then the extra bandits will come as reinforcements.
Bandit Reinforcements
Bandits at hideouts can call in reinforcements, they will show up on horses and or on foot.
Reinforcements is set by chance in the ini, the higher the percentage (chance) then reinforcements will show.
Reinforcements also has a setting where you can define how many bandits will come, and if you only wanted
bandits on horses, or foot, or both, you also can disable reinforcements from coming in the ini.
Bandit Spawn Amount
In the included bandit hideouts.ini there is a list called spawn amount, this list will list every hideout/ambush point
and allow you to set a specific number that you want to spawn at a or each individual hideout.
This lets you taylor or customize hideouts based on how you want to play.
Each hideout and ambush point has a default or base number of spawn points you can use this article reference
to get the base default number of each hideout: LINK
Knowing the base number of a hideout or ambush point will tell you how many bandits can be spawned there.
For example: If you chose a hideout that had 10 bandits spawn positions that means if you set the spawn amount
to say 5 then only 5 bandits would spawn. If you set the number to say 15 then the extra 5 bandits would spawn
at the reinforcement spawn points.
The would respawn at the reinforcement spawn points because there are only 10 available spawn points
at the hideout. The same applies to ambush points.
Bandits will chase the player
Bandits will chase you if you ride off or run away after attacking their hideout.
Bandit Ambushes
Ambushes are not dynamic they are built the same as hideouts and are at set locations.
Each ambush location can vary between 2-6 bandits that will attack you on foot if you enter an ambush location.
If you run away on foot or on horse the bandits at the ambush location will chase after you either on foot or get on a horse.
Ambush locations are marked on the downloadable map with an X
Enable/Disable individual Ambush Points
This feature introduced in v1.18 gives the player the option to enable or disable an individual ambush location through the included ini,
all you need to do is refer to the map linked for download and decide which ambush location you want to disable for whatever reason,
you open up the ini file, locate the ambush point in the list, and just set the setting accordingly.
Bandit Posse on Horseback
As players explore the game world, they will randomly be attacked by bandits on horseback, these encounters can happen at any time.
In the Bandit Hideouts.ini you can define how often (how many ingame hrs) bandits will attack,
and a minimum and maximum number of bandits on horseback that will attack, you can disable this feature in the ini if you want to.
Just to note they will mostly show up if your near or on a road, but i've had them show up in the middle of the wilderness too.
They can and will interfere with any story missions your doing, so best disable this feature in the ini if you plan on doing story missions.
Random Roaming Bandits
Bandits roaming the world, they will spawn in the area you are in and will be bandit/gang members
from that area so if your in Valentine Area then you might see a small group of O'Driscolls wandering around.
These bandits may be on foot, on horseback alone, in a group, or on a wagon, or both.
You can also set in the ini if they attack you on sight or not, as well as disable them.
Hired Gunmen
Players can hire up to 9 gunmen to fight alongside them, to do so just talk to the barkeep in any saloon.
These hired guns will assist the player in combat, making it easier to take on large groups of bandits or zombies.
- You can hire up to 9 gunmen at a time.
- You can hire a random gunmen with their own gear and weapons.
- You can customize what they wear, and the weapons they carry.
- Hired Guns will not fight while in a town (can change this in the ini).
- Story characters are also available.
- You can use the 'Rest & Recover' option in the menu that will teleport your hired guns to you in case
you got separated, they'll be cleaned and their hats and weapons will be recovered if they lost them.
- They automatically go into "sneak and hold fire" mode while you're crouching / sneaking outside of combat.
- If the "Allow revive" option is enabled, instead of dying they will go down into an injured state and be revived
by crouching close to their head until the 'Help' prompt fills up (10 seconds).
- Using the 'Wait for signal' command will make them stay and don't do anything until you signal to them by whistling.
- The 'Ride with me' command will prevent them from spawning in their own horse.
If there's another free horse around they'll use that, but if not they'll ride with you on your horse.
Commands menu:
You can also give commands to them through their command menu, Numpad 1-9 keys by default.
Hired Gunmen Voice Lines
When you tell your hired gunmen to stay or follow, Arthur or John will actually say out loud those commands,
and when your crouched and you tell your gunmen to stay Arthur or John will say it in a quiet voice.
This feature can also be enabled and disabled in the ini, and is enabled by default.
The command menu has some extra commands:
- Aim at person while the menu is up: Attack target, lasso target.
- Aim at dead / hogtied person: pick up target.
- Aim at horse: put carried body on horse.
- Aim at downed hired gun: help up (it'll take them the same amount of time as for you).
- Press numpad 0 to make all hired guns stay / follow
Zombies
As if bandits weren't enough to deal with, the mod also adds zombies to the game world.
Disabled by default, you can enable them in the Bandit Hideouts.ini
There are some options in the ini to customize them, like the following:
- Spawn frequency - this is how much more or less you will see of them.
- Day/night detection - this is a setting where you can set if the zombies detect you.
- Zombie health - this is how much a zombie can take before you kill them.
- Min and max - this will be the group size of how many groups of zombies.
- Min and max number during day or night.
- Zombies burst into flames upon dieing.
- Zombie lairs - this will change all the bandit hideouts to zombie lairs,
so instead of bandits spawning, zombies will.
Customization
All of the features in the mod can be customized by editing the Bandit Hideouts.ini file.
Each setting in the ini has a description on what it does and how to enable/disable it or adjust it.
Open the ini file with notepad to edit it, also run it as administrator if you are being denied access.

New feature setting added to the ini where now you can enable/disable individual ambush locations.
Update notes 2
The bandits at hideouts should and will attack you on sight now, ambush location bandits will do the same as they should,
zombies should also be attacking you on sight, granted they see you, hideout bandit reinforcements should respond normally, and
attack you when the bandits at the hideouts do, so no more standing there as they did before.
Random roaming bandits should also be attacking you on sight if you have the setting attack on sight set in the ini,
i had no issues with any of these in my tests.
The not attack on sight feature in v1.17 was mainly a test, it was a WIP code and it had some issues, even crossed said
messing with the combat behavior of the bandits effects all the bandits, the feature would need to be setup differently,
maybe in the near future as i work on the code and get things working i will add it to an update again.
v1.18 is a small update but it should address some issues reported other then the blip problem with the bandits behavior.
v1.19 will be the next update, i got something else im working on and if it works then i think you guys will be pretty happy
all for today, have fun, and any questions ask in the comments. Cheers!
For New players to the mod, if you have a question please review the Questions & Answers article HERE first before posting a comment.==============
Update - v1.17
- Fixed - Looting dead generic gang members (strangers) shouldn't make you lose honor unless they attack you first.
- Fixed - Blip icon for dead bandits on radar shouldn't be showing anymore (in all my tests they weren't).
- Fixed - Hideout spawn chance.
- Fixed - Bandit Ambushes, bandits will attack the player again at ambush locations.
- Fixed - Props at North Twin Stack Pass Hideout.
- Added - 3 new ambush locations.
- Added - 1 new Hideout: Clawson's Rest.
- Added - ENABLE_DOVER_HILL=1 to the disable individual hideouts story list in the ini as it wasn't added in v1.15
- Added - New setting in Bandit Hideouts.ini BANDITS_ATTACK_ON_SIGHT=1
This gives the player the option to have bandits at hideouts attack on sight or not attack on sight.
- Adjusted - Set the number of Hideout bandits left when a hideout was cleared to 0, the hideout cleared message would show
if enabled and before you would get the hideout cleared message but there was still 4 bandits left.
- Updated - Bandit Hideouts.ini, rearranged the bandits settings so their together and updated many descriptions.
===================
Update Notes - important! - Bandit Hideouts.ini
The ini file has been updated, as noted in the changelog above its been overhauled, some things rearranged,
and descriptions adjusted, plus some new settings, replace your ini with it.
Update Notes 2 - Hideout Bandits Attack on Sight ini setting
You now have the option to enable/disable bandits at hideouts from attacking on sight,
the following is whats going to happen if you disable the bandits from attacking on sight:
1. Hideout bandits wont attack on sight when the setting is set to: BANDITS_ATTACK_ON_SIGHT=0
2. Hideout bandits wont respond if you shoot them from afar, it depends, you can walk into a hideout, the
bandits might even greet you, if you stand close to them, or get in their face, they may say something, if
you remain they will get aggravated and might raise their gun and warn you, if you back off when they do this,
thats them warning you, however if you stay they then will attack you.
3. Hideout Reinforcements work the same way (nothing i coded, or did, its just a bug i cant figure out), so reinforcements
if enabled (through chance) will spawn normally, however they wont attack until the hideout itself is attacking you.
So just letting you know if you come across reinforcements, standing there, they wont attack unless you provoke them
or get the bandits at the hideout attacking you. I'm still trying to sort this out.
============
I spent alot of time trying to figure out how to do this, it still needs some adjustments so be patient, any questions please ask.
Update Notes 3
Files
All you need from this update if you have any previous version of the mod is the: .ASI and the Bandit Hideouts.ini

Notes: Bandit Hideouts.ini

existing ini, or get a new copy, see the changelog above for details as to what was added.
Notes: Radar Blips
I need some feedback on the radar blips, basically clear a hideout, kill all the bandits and see if there are any
blips on the radar left when all bandits are dead, please let me know in the comments.
Notes: Bandit Hideout Behavior
After extensive testing i was finally able to get the bandits to not attack the player on sight when the player
enters a hideout, now the only way the bandits will attack you is if you get to close to the bandits, or attack them.

The Bandit Hideouts.ini has some new code in it, my suggestion is to copy the code from the ini in the update,
to your existing ini file this way you dont lose any of your settings, or replace your ini with the new one your choice.
1. Open the new ini in the v1.15 zip you should see this code -----> See Picture of new code

// On-Screen Blip Icon //
SHOW_HIDEOUT_ICON=1

There is a new setting in the Bandit_Hideouts.ini you have 2 choices:
A. Either download the ini and replace yours with it if your not new to the mod. OR
B. Copy the following code and add it to the ini so you dont need to change any settings:
COPY THE RED CODE BELOW:
// Hired Gunmen Menu Language Translation
DISABLE_TRANSLATION=1 // Disabled by default, change to 0 if your using a .dat language file, this setting is for those
who speak another language other then English and cant read the Hired Guns menu in English.

Where do we put this code?
Paste it under where it says HIRE_COST=25 for the Hired Guns Settings.
v1.13 IMPORTANT NOTES pt 2
The hired guns is limited to 5, we are unable to increase it because of code constraints,

Important NOTES:
Want to let you guys know that the hired guns is broke somehow in the update, what's actually "broke" is
the menu to hire a gunmen at the bartender is blank, you can still hire a gunmen if you can figure out the functions, also
when you hire you wont be able to command them, the menu for that dont come up.
Crossed and i are looking into this issue and have already fixed a part of it before the v1.12 update here as before
the menu didn't come up at all.
NEW HIDEOUTS MAP!
Lastly i saved the best for last, we have a new hideouts map which you can see on the description tab, i have a
link there where you can download the map, its 60.3mb!
This map was created by a friend known as Cockerball, thanks to his creative photoshop skills he has all the hideouts
and ambush locations on the map, sorted by color, number, and by what gangs are at those hideouts.
==============
Ps. For the v1.12 update all you need is the .ASI and the .DAT files, new players need all files.

Important!
If you have v1.10 then all you need for this update is the ASI and the .DAT file.

They are story location hideouts, theres an issue with them where they will spawn in, but despawn when you get close,
crossed and i dont know what the issue is yet, we think the hideouts are conflicting with the story hideouts, we will see.===================
v1.10 - August 28th, 2023
Changelog:
- Removed the hanging corpse/rope at the Flattened Cabin Hideout.

Notes on the Lakay Hideout:
The hideout had an issue with spawning bandits, possibly conflicting with the vanilla mission/hideout
that is there. Bandits would spawn in normally when you got in max range of the hideout,
but then once you got to the min range about where the stakes are
with the skulls on the path the hideout would despawn.
I had rebuilt the hideout twice,tested it numerous times with default min/max bandit numbers
and it gave me the same result.
The hideout crashed my game twice when i reached the despawn point for the hideout.
So just letting you guys know that hideout may or may not work, it may crash your game and or
do exactly as happened to me, im not sure how to fix it and dont understand what the issue is.

hideout initially as there are a set number of positions then they'll spawn in as reinforcements.

29 bandits will come as reinforcements on horseback (default max 6) and bandits on foot.
