HUGE Problem With Modding RDR2 That No One Is Talking About
I've not personally tested this, but I'd imagine anything that puts a strain on the engine with the amount of assets could trigger it. So I'd imagine it depends on what the script is doing.

Do you have any other mods installed besides the rampage trainer though...?

HUGE Problem With Modding RDR2 That No One Is Talking About
I've been trying to get this post/issue traction in the hope we can get a modder on board to create some kind of workaround, but so far I've been unsuccessful.

HUGE Problem With Modding RDR2 That No One Is Talking About
That's good, but the despawning happens in stages. So it might be less severe for you, but still happening. Try finding some rare animals without any mods loaded, save your game, re-enable mods, then load back in and see if those same animals are still spawning. That's the only way I was able to fully verify if the issue was still occurring. It might be it's not happening for you because the resolution you're playing at is lower than for those that are having this issue, or your graphic settings are less demanding.

HUGE Problem With Modding RDR2 That No One Is Talking About
There's also this one I found: https://www.gta5-mods.com/tools/resource-adjuster In fact there appears to be quite a few of these kinds of mods for GTAV. The issue is how relevant they would be to the RDR2 issue we're facing, and if they are, how easy they would be to re-enginer for this game. My programming experience is little, so I don't feel I would be of much use in this process.

HUGE Problem With Modding RDR2 That No One Is Talking About
Essentially until someone decides to seriously look into this issue there's nothing we can do. GTA V modders were able to work around a very similar issue in GTA V by using a script file that manually adjusted the amount assets that could be loaded. But unfortunately one doesn't seem to currently exist for RDR2.

HUGE Problem With Modding RDR2 That No One Is Talking About
Basically don't install any texture, asset mods or gameconfig/systemsettings edits and you should be fine. The issue is it's extremely difficult to detect this problem until you either compare to the base game or you notice one of the following: you can't find a rare animal, the same animals are repeating, there are no trains appearing, no peds on trains, empty trams, or only ever one person on board a carriage (no passenegers) etc.

HUGE Problem With Modding RDR2 That No One Is Talking About
I had read on one or two reddit threads that there may have been an update to the game at some point that altered how textures are streamed as a way to fix crashes that were occurring which may be causing the issue. However, I have no way to verify if this is indeed the case as I'm unable to test previous versions of the game. I'm also not hugely familiar with the way rage engine gameconfig files work, so I'm unable to test for myself if there's a solution buried in there somewhere. I do believe some users were saying they had varying levels of success using stutter fix mods, but I'm not hugely confident that they would be stable in preventing the issue from occurring. It does seem that turning some of the graphical settings up could potentially worsen the issue. However, that doesn't excuse the modders who should be making this clear from the get go.

HUGE Problem With Modding RDR2 That No One Is Talking About
That's interesting because I found that online content unlocker was one of the problematic mods for me. I'd be interested to know what resolution and settings you play with along with what kind of graphics card you use, because I'm wondering if it's related to the graphics settings simply being too high for the game to handle alongside these big content and texture mods.

HUGE Problem With Modding RDR2 That No One Is Talking About
I had to work extremely hard just to find this thread. So clearly it's not very visible, particularly in search engines. I have to say I think modders such as WhyEm and other big names in the Red dead redemption 2 modding scene are very irresponsible promising these massive content and texture mods, but refusing to properly test them or even just acknowledging that they fundamentally severely break the game for a lot of people.

HUGE Problem With Modding RDR2 That No One Is Talking About
I've also just recently discovered this problem and am amazed more people in the modding community aren't discussing it. I've had to give up on my playthrough that I've spent 60 plus hours on at this point just because I hadn't realised how fundamentally broken the game is when having mods installed. (Even upgraded my PC especially for this game and its mods.) Which is a shame as I was really enjoying the challenge of having to hunt down rare animals and having to spend a long time searching them out. Only to discover that in actual fact the base game makes them relatively easy to find, but mods break the game so much that you get the impression that it's seriously challenging and get a false sense of feeling rewarded, when in reality they aren't even spawning properly in the first place. And that's not evening mentioning trains, pedestrians on trains, random events passengers on carts etc... Why the modding community refuses to acknowledge that their mods with thousands of downloads are fundamentally breaking people's games without them even realising it I don't understand... I'm surprised and disappointed also that modders aren't working on trying to understand why this issue is occurring and actively working to prevent it. I'm glad at least someone other than me has managed to put this out there.
