This mod skips the legal menu and the main menu and puts you directly into story mode. Since this mod tells the game to replace certain files, Red Dead Online is disabled when you install this mod to prevent the risk of being banned due to modified game files. Any attempt to connect to Red Dead Online will redirect you to story mode. Attempting to open the online menu in the pause menu will cause you to get softlocked. 

NOTE: When the loading bar disappears, you will be on a black screen for a few seconds. The game is waiting for social club to sign you in. Story mode will start loading when you sign in.

Installation:
1. Download the zip file from the downloads page.
2. Extract the x64 folder in the zip file.
3. Put the x64 folder in your game directory.
4. The file explorer will say that there is a x64 folder in the game directory and if you want to merge the folder.
5. Click yes.
6. Done!

NOTE: The rockstar launcher may show a scary warning saying that there are modified files and that you may get banned for using online services with the modified files. Don't worry, this mod blocks you from going into online mode.

Uninstallation:
1. Go to your game directory.
2. Open the x64 folder
3. Delete the main_and_legal_menu_skip_data folder.
4. Open the data folder
5. Delete the startup.meta file.
6. Done!

Components:
These files can be found in x64/main_and_legal_menu_skip_data in the game directory.
 

  • legal_screen_patch.ymt - This skips the legal screen. Delete this file if you want to disable this.
  • main_menu_patch.ymt - This skips the main menu and enables protections that prevent you from going online. Delete this file if you want to disable this.


Disclaimer:
I am not responsible if you get banned online for using this mod with protections that prevent you from going online being disabled in any way.

This is a great mod but I lose audio when I load into the game. It's only this mod that causes this issue for me, I uninstalled everything else except for this but it's still causing the issue.

Did you try uninstalling this mod to see it is was actually the culprit?

谢谢,这将使RDR好玩一百倍。我还需要一些有用的MOD,但我的母语不是英语,实在无法通过搜索来找到所需的MOD。请帮帮我。

我需要的MOD有:

通过快捷键把我传送到附近的马匹上,无论这不是我的马,无论这马匹有没有人骑着。

我骑着的马匹撞到别人骑的马的时候,我的马不会把我摔下马。

With the Mod, the Logos/Menu is not shown, but stuck on Black Screen. Removing it, cause the game no longer starting at all. Verify Files not fix that issue.

Make sure you remove startup.meta as well.

I got it to work thx, seems like something else did interfere as well. Atm I have removed every single Mod, but only remain RDR FR, since the game crashing constantly on the Intro.
It may are my PC not strong enough for the Mods. I will try only RDR FR out and see if it still crashs
