Red Dead Redemption is finally coming to PC on October 29, Rockstar Games just announced! Originally released in 2010, it is making its way to PC after being re-released recently for PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch. The PC port will include the zombie-themed expansion, Undead Nightmare. You’ll be able to grab it on the Rockstar Store, Steam, and the Epic Games Store.

For those of you eager to write their own script mods for RDR 1 PC, the wait is over! Thanks to @kepmehz for creating a C++ based script hook. You can download it here:
Lenny’s Simple Trainer, our home grown trainer initially made available for RDR2, is now available for the new PC release of Red Dead Redemption 1! While it’s in very early stages, this initial version already brings some useful features, like teleporting around the map, changing the weather, and spawning mounts, characters and vehicles.
This early version is still pretty limited and may have some bugs, so expect updates as the community gives us feedback. If you’re ready to experiment and can handle a few rough edges, Lenny’s Simple Trainer for RDR1 is now ready for download on RDR2Mods.com. Give it a try and keep an eye out for new features as they roll out!
Rockstar's latest patch for Red Dead Redemption 2, 1.0.1436.31 has caused many popular RDR2 modifications to stop working. This is expected for game updates, but this particular patch has caused slightly more problems than usual.
Why has the Title Update broken my mods?
Rockstar makes patches to RDR2 mainly to improve the stability and to add content to Red Dead Online. We don't think Rockstar makes these patches to deliberately impact singleplayer modding, however, singleplayer modding can often be a victim of changes Rockstar make to keep Red Dead Online safer from cheaters. You can read the patch notes of this update here.
What do I need to update and what can I update?
In the latest update, virtually all modding tools need an update to work with this version. This includes Lenny's Mod Loader, our ASI loader (version.dll), Scripthook RDR2 and RAGE Plugin Hook 2, which is used in our RDRFR sheriff mod. All of these modifications have now been updated for this Title Update.
Updates are now available for Lenny's Mod Loader and our ASI loader -- you can find these in our Tools section. Make sure to install these, as they are necessary for a lot of other file-based RDR2 modifications to work.
Scripthook RDR2 has been updated for this version, you can find it here. Scripthook RDR2 is necessary for a lot of script-based RDR2 modifications to work.
Most of our home grown modifications, like Lenny's Simple Trainer, RDR2 Outfit Changer and Pimp My Horse do not need an update. However, please make sure you're using the latest version.dll from the ASI loader. These mods include an outdated version.dll which will cause your game to crash.
RDRFR will require an update. RDRFR has now been updated, and you can download the update here.
My game crashes or infinitely loads, how can I fix this?
Make sure your using the latest version of Lenny's Mod Loader, as well as the latest ASI loader. Certain mods can include, for example, version.dll so installing them may overwrite your updated version of that file with an outdated one.
We've also heard of some conflicts, for example, Disable Out Of Bounds Snipers (NoInvisibleSnipers.asi) causing infinite loading for some people.
If you're still having issues, you can get more support on our Discord server or if you'd prefer, on the RDR2 Mods Discussion forum.
We're happy to bring two exciting changes to our Discord community today.
First, we're introducing the new #website discussion channel. This will be the channel to bring website suggestions, problems and feedback which can get lost over the noise of existing discussion. We'll also post website updates here and try to keep people up-to-date with maintenance events.
And, we're happy to launch our new RDR2Mods.com Discord bot. Our Discord bot was created to fulfil the need of announcing new mods and mod updates for our own Discord community, and now you can bring it to your own. For more information on our bot, see the dedicated page.
It’s been a little while since we have shared some news, but this week has been wild!
First, we’re really happy to announce that we’re re-branding as RDR2Mods.com.
We want RDR2Mods.com to be an open, fair and easily accessible space for the RDR2 modding community, in a similar nature to what we’ve created with LCPDFR.com for GTA V (and GTA IV!).
Similarly to when we launched LCPDFR.com, we want to do things differently.
As mod creators ourselves, we want our community to be the best possible place to distribute your creations. To that end, we have a few features that really help with this goal.
An open community. Anyone can download without any registration. We do encourage people to register and share their feedback, but we understand this won’t be for everyone.
Fast distribution. We always use a proper CDN for serving files, whether you are a Patreon or not.
Creator focused. You keep full control of your mods, which means you can update or remove your mods with one click. You can also let your downloaders know how to support you, by adding a donation button.
We’re always wanting to hear feedback as it helps us improve, if you think there’s anything we can do differently or anything you’d like to see, you can always let us know.
We also just launched Lenny’s Mod Loader for RDR2. Like it’s GTA V counterpart, LML supports replacing any file in the game, not just streamed assets.
We’ve included a few examples of what is now possible, from replacing the game font to changing game meta values to increase the amount of peds that can be spawned.
Like LML for GTA V, we plan to include our one-click installation feature in the near future, allowing you to download RDR2 mods with the ease of a single click.
There are already a few creations out there that are using the power of LML, and we’re really excited to see what comes next!
It's a little late to say the least, but we're excited to announce that the first public version of our police mod for Red Dead Redemption 2, RDR First Response (RDRFR), is now available for download.
This first version of RDRFR puts the power of the law into your hands for the first time since Rockstar's flagship title arrived on PC. Working in conjunction with our Patreon supporters and testers, we've built a number of core features into the mod for you to enjoy with the ability to arrest suspects, go on duty and request backup in a manner similar to LSPDFR for GTA V.
We hope that you enjoy this release of RDRFR, and we thank you for your patience as things took a little longer than anticipated.
Just half a year late, we are happy to release our official trailer for RDRFR! We hope to make the mod available publicly soon™
Thank you to all of our Patreon subscribers for the support and special thanks to willpv23 for the trailer.
The OpenIV team has finally released the new version 4.0 which adds support to explore RDR2's game files! You can already open and view textures, meta files, audio (including playback!) and language files. Find more details about the release here: https://openiv.com/?p=1665
It's been a little since we got up to speed with the latest developments in RDR 2 modding, but that hasn't stopped @HughJanus (yes, we see what you did there) from uploading two new mods for everyone to try. Ped Silencer comes after a request from @Doktor VS and completely silences Arthur so that he won't speak at all, which is pretty useful if you're playing as a different character model. Also new is the Ped Damage Overhaul mod, which tweaks the NPCs in the game in various different ways to make them stumble when hit, stronger in combat and so on. Finally, there's a simple mod by @Daylight848 (another apt name) which lets you customize the speed of the game's clock to make time pass faster or slower - I imagine it's very useful if you enjoy prolonged daylight as much as the author seems to!
As always, you can check out these mods and more in our Downloads section:
