                                   ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

                                             Warning - Before you install!
                                                        For those installing the mod for the first time and want to also play the story/missions.

                                                          So you understand what this mod does, it adds 130+ bandit hideouts
                                          and ambush points all over the map, thats everywhere and anywhere except towns (settlements).
                                                          That means there are some hideouts that will spawn at story, and mission
                                                            locations. There are also ambush points that will spawn bandits that may
                                                               interfere with story missions, or while riding to them.

                                                            There are also other bandit features like the bandit posse on horseback
                                                                     that will spawn and attack the player anywhere, anytime.
                                                      That means they may come when your in the middle of a story mission, or traveling
                                                          with another character from the story during a mission.

                                                    If you do play the story and dont like the idea of hideouts, and bandits interfering
                                                         during the story and missions. 
                                             There is a Bandit_Hideouts.ini file included in the download, it is a configuration file that will
                                   allow you to configure every feature in the mod, this includes being able to disable the mod while ingame,
                                                 or disabling certain features, hideouts, and ambush points that could interfere with the story.

                                As said everything in the mod is configurable, it can be enabled, disabled, or adjusted if it uses numbers.
                                        Do not install the mod if you are not at least in chapter 2 of the story!
                                                           Any questions or problems review the articles, or ask on the post tab!

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 it 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 at each hideout/ambush
point. All hideouts and ambush points are 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)
MOci8wjs.png
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
1rPSmmA.jpg
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 disabled 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 for both 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 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.

         Ambushes can also be customized to have a certain amount of bandits spawn using the spawn amount setting.
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.
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, and set how often they will spawn.
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.
  • Set how much it costs to hire a gunmen.
  • 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/max spawn amount - this will be the group size of how many groups of zombies.
  • Min/max number - number of zombies that can spawn during day or night.
  • Min/max spawn time - how often they will spawn in seconds.
  • 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.

Installation
Move the following files:

  • Bandit_Hideouts.asi

    This seems like it would be a great mod, if it wasn't bugged. I'm not sure if it's like this for everyone, or just me. When I would go to a bandit camp, there would be a lot of enemies, then after killing a few, something close to 300 more spawned, and my game crashed. Somehow disabling it in LML didn't even work. I had to go into the file location and uninstall it manually.

    As Redfan said the mod isn't installed in the lml folder, its not an lml mod, the instructions on how to install the mod is

    at the bottom of the description.

    Regardless if you installed it correctly, if you are getting alot of enemies then you need to look at the Bandit_hideouts.ini

    and adjust the numbers for Hideout Reinforcements.

       Hideouts themselves at max have about 21-23 bandits that depends on the hideout too, any more bandits

    that you have set for min and max will show up in the reinforcements.

    Alright, I see. I'm fairly new to the modding scene, and i've never had any issues with not installing into the game directory, and just using the install with lml button, and it always successfully auto converts and works as intended. As for it not disabling, I'm pretty sure I just forgot to save changes, and it was late so that didn't even cross my mind. I'll probably reinstall this properly once I finish the story again on my modded save, as some of the bandit camps interfere with missions. It's probably a great mod, and like i said earlier it definitely has a lot of potential, if the person downloading is competent to download it properly. My bad.

    Once you get the mod properly installed review the included ini file as that is where you want to customize

    the mod for your gameplay style.

    These settings which are at the top of the ini speaks for itself:

     

    // Story settings //
    DISABLE_DURING_MISSIONS=0              // Set to 1 to disable the mod during story missions, it will also disable it during some missions added by other mods.
    DISABLE_STORY_LOCATION_HIDEOUTS=0    // Set to 1 to disable bandit hideouts located at major story locations like Beever Hollow, Colter, or Shady Belle.

         Any questions please ask.

    Hey I'm confused, it's a standalone mod of AMJM so if I use AMJM then I don't need this? I noticed this one has persistent blips which AMJM doesn't have, is there a way to turn them on or can I use both mods?

     

    Is there any difference between this and AMJM?

    Did you read the description of the mod?

    It tells you what it does.

    I'll break it down for you:

    • Bandit Hideouts is a standalone version of all the bandit features of the AMJM Transport mod but upgraded.
    • All the wagon, job, boats, pirate and whatever else AMJM Transport did is disabled in Bandit Hideouts.
    • Bandit Hideouts mod is exactly that, new and more bandit hideouts including a new feature called Ambush Locations which currently theres about 19 of them.
    • AMJM has about 35 i think hideouts for bandits, in Bandit Hideouts the mod has those 35 plus 24 more that i built with more being built every week.
    • All together there are 59 bandit hideouts all over the map and 19 ambush locations in total.

    Expand  

    Well AMJM does have what bandit hideouts does in terms of some features as the bandit features have been upgraded, more

    settings and ini settings have been added.

        So no some of the settings you see in Bandit hideouts wont be in AMJM's ini file.

    You can use both mods but i would disable the bandit settings in the AMJM transport ini file or you will get conflicts, and its a bit redundent

    because the 35 hideouts in AMJM are in Bandit hideouts so if you ran into a hideout in AMJM while running BH then you may crash the game

    or you may spawn double the amount of bandits, idk never tried and i dont use the mod, just BH.

     

    In my opinion if you use AMJM for the bandit features you would be short changing yourself, i know because i played with

    AMJM Transport since crossed released that mod, and then i asked him if we could build a standalone version of all the bandit features

    and he was cool with that, so he helped me build the mod and get it stable and working.

     

         So bandit hideouts does alot as you can read in the description, it overhauls the bandit features, the main focus of the mod

    is well hence its name... Bandit Hideouts so with AMJM alone your limited to 35 hideouts which is still alot but then you'd be missing out on

    24 new ones, plus ambush locations, alot of ini settings that have been added and tweaked, map icons that can be enabled and disabled,

    including other settings like reinforcement numbers on horse and foot for hideouts.

     

    Read the changelog it will give you an idea what was done since the standalone release.

    Okay thank you, I read it but as a new player w/mods the meaning of "standalone" is a bit unclear, the fact they have some of the same features and also some different features is more confusing.

    new modder here. just making sure, mod says it requires alexander's script hook to work so i'm guessing that lenny's hook isn't compatible?

    Gunter Severloh

    Never heard of lenny's hook, so have no idea.

    Just make sure the mod has the following installed into the main directory:

    Bandit_Hideouts.asi

    Bandit_Hideouts.dat

    Bandit_Hideouts.ini

    Bandit_Hideouts_CustomPeds.txt

     

    the game's directory seen here:
    C:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Red Dead Redemption 2
     also install Scripthook (ScriptHookRDR2.dll) along with dinput8.dll

     

    Btw i mostly hang out on the Nexus page for the mod: https://www.nexusmods.com/reddeadredemption2/mods/2213

    so if you have questions need answering you may reach me there faster, either way.

    what are the parameters for hideout respawn? if i set to 0 will they not respawn? i tried 900 hours but it came back in just 1 day, is there a hard cap?

     

    Gunter Severloh

    To "permanently" disable a hideout once cleared you can set their respawn timer to a very large value.

    This is the largest value you can set: 2147483647 (seconds).
     This will disable them for ~10 thousand hours, basically forever 🙂
     But it will not get saved so they'll still respawn when you reload the game.

    I tried it with several values and even with 2147483647 but the hideout respawns always after 24 hours. I'm also not able to change the hideout blip.

    Just played the first hosea hunting mission and got ambushed by bandids while I was sitting on the campfire and crafting stuff.
    I saw that there is a setting in the .ini file called "DISABLE_DURING_MISSIONS".

    When I set this to 1, do I have to restart the game after each completed mission to re-enable the hideouts?

    I tried it with several values and even with 2147483647 but the hideout respawns always after 24 hours. I'm also not able to change the hideout blip.

    Mod has an issue with hideouts currently, me and crossed have no idea whats going on, theres a ton of code to look at,

    but you can also try 999 for the value but keep in mind that as soon as you restart the game the hideouts will be reset.

    I and crossed are still working on the code where you can disable individual hideouts so til we get that working then, my suggestion overall is

    if there is a mission, or story part you are planning on playing, disable the mod until you have completed them.

     

    Bandit hideouts doesn't compliment the story aspect of the game only because some code that was formerly working dont seem to work

    anymore, and again we have no idea why. 

    We just recently solved why Colter, Lakay, and beaver Hollow werent working after a few months

    of testing and now its fixed.

    That code dont seem to work anymore and we dont know why, but your being attacked by bandits on horseback,

    in the Bandit_Hideouts.ini look for this

    // Bandit Posse on Horseback //
    and change the code for it from 1 to a 0 (zero) like this --->  RANDOM_BANDIT_ATTACKS=0

    Hey there! I can't turn off bandit hideout icons on the map even when turning these off in the ini. Also bandits keep attacking during missions. I use PDO and CERR latest. 

    I found the gunman from the bartender, but when I command a gunman to mount up there is no horse for him to mount. Spawned in a 2nd gunman and he had a horse to mount. They kept ripping each other off the horse when telling one or the other to mount up.. Haha

     

    Okay now Charles* just died on a hunting mission for bison because of the bandits. Now the game is stuck in a loop. It says DEAD and when I try to "Retry Checkpoint" or "Restart Mission" it pretends to load, but comes back to the DEAD screen.

     

    Upon trying to spawn a gunman from "custom list", the game froze up and gave the error provided below. Please check my ini file with the changes made. I waited for windows to "wait for program to respond", and eventually the game responded, but the gunman hire option from the bartender is now missing. The hideout icons are still on the map, but no one is there.

     

    I've also attached some logs and a screenshot. Asi loader log shows bandit hideout loaded when just placing in root folder, but when opening console with F10 (PDO uses F9) it says it can't find scripts folder with mod files. I then added a scripts folder and put the mod files in, hit insert to refresh and that message goes away, and I have to restart the game for hideout icons to show up. Even though I've disabled them, and the ^errors described^ are present.

    The asi log shows nothing related to Bandit Hideouts when put in the scripts folder.

     

    Thanks again! I don't use nexus mods. This site seems more professional, and better organized. Especially being able to use LML.

     

    Thank YOU! Please let me know if anything else is needed from you to diagnose the issues.

    Hi, Answered you in your pm, in the future contact me on Nexus as im there almost everyday, pming me

    here wont get you a faster answer.

     

    As for scripthook make sure your running latest version of the official scripthook, the custom ped list as your finding out may cause issues when

    using custom peds, i havent had any reports on the nexus since the start of the mod about the list other then some peds wont spawn or work.

    Hiring gunmen should be limited to under 5, for some reason the game might crash using all 5 but mostly because when they spawn horses,

    again i have no idea why.

        

    Get a fresh copy of the mod (.asi) and see if anything changes, dont use the mod when your going to do missions, or story

    parts, complete them first.

        Mod has some issues, understand that theres 132 scripts in the mod, with thousands of lines of code, at some point

    something may conflict, or break, and some of the issues that have been reported can be caused by various things, other

    mods can interfere or conflict and cause bugs to happen. The game is already instable and not mod supported as it is which makes it harder.

     

    Suggest to solve some of the issues is to test without other mods. i will look into the icons when i work on the mod again.

    No. Mod goes into the root folder of the game, no where else, the mod dont contain a "scripts" folder ignore all that.

    You did something wrong somewhere, again all files go into the RDR2 directory no where else, here:

    C:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Red Dead Redemption 2

    install it, tweak the ini to what you want and thats it, disable or remove the mod during missions and doing story related missions.

            Dont use the mod til you get to chapter 2 or bandits will be at Colter and interfere with the story.

     

    I'll look into the map icons when i work on the mod and see if there is any issues, but theres no guarantees i can fix anything if

    there is indeed an issue in the code, or some new bug.

    From all the bug reports from players, do you recommend playing this mod with the Vulkan or Dtx 12 graphics api?

    Gunter Severloh

    Gunter Severloh 47 Author

    Posted

    That depends on your computer, i use DX12 myself and have no issues, run everything maxed, and can play 8-12+hrs

    without a twinkle, lol idk try either or, if it performs better on Vulcan then use it, and vice versa.

    No update to the mod, still v1.18 someone reported on the Nexus mod page that the zip format was corrupt

    and they couldn't extract it, so i tested it myself a few times and got the same result, i had reuploaded

    the files in a new zip format and that fixed it, did it here too. v1.19 coming tomorrow. Cheers!

    how to add bandit camps to the map, I got it somehow, but after reinstalling the game I can’t figure out how to turn it on

    The mod is enabled by default, make sure you installed the mod correctly.

    All files in the zip other then the readme go into the main directory of the game, same place as the RDR2.exe.

    Theres really nothing for you to do other then adjust whatever settings in the bandit_hideouts.ini all you need to do

    really is come within range of a hideout and bandits will spawn in, that depends where your at in the game, and if

    there is a hideout around the location your at.

         Normally if you haven't changed any settings in the ini you will get a small icon on the lower left of your screen

    when you come near a hideout, also an icon will show on the map for the hideout your near, so if you have that then

    you should see bandits at a hideout.

        Suggest also downloading the map:

    Google Drive: 60.6mb https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1iLI3Yjmay0uw22f-0MUg0j0__DAEYlGK?usp=sharing

    this is just a picture of the RDR2 map with all the hideouts, their names, and what gangs are at those hideouts, that

    will give you an idea where the hideouts are.
