Hey everyone, hoping someone who's dealt with this before can help me out. I've got about 100 hours into a modded save, running Lenny's Mod Loader plus the Red Dead Offline mod. Everything was working fine until I went to customize the Improved Bow and picked one of the visual variants that the mod itself said wasn't available yet. I forced it anyway just to see what would happen, and the game crashed right then. Since that happened the game won't get past the Rockstar logo screen anymore whenever RDO (In this case ill be referring to RedDeadOffline in this way) is active. The crash happens right after the Rockstar logo appears, before I even get to the save list or main menu. If I disable RDO in LML the game boots up and loads into my save completely fine, no issues at all, I'm just missing all my RDO stuff obviously since the mod is off. I checked Windows Event Viewer and it's showing an APPCRASH with exception code c0000005, access violation, and the faulting module is RDR2.exe itself, not some specific .asi or dll. I completely deleted the mod folder and did a fresh clean install of Red Dead Offline and it still crashes the exact same way. I also tried loading an older save from before any of this happened and it still crashes at the same point, right after the Rockstar logo, before the save list even shows up, so at this point I don't think it's actually a save file issue since it's crashing before the game even gets that far and before it touches any specific save. What I'm trying to figure out is whether this mod might be caching something about the catalog or player customization state somewhere outside its own lml folder, like in Documents/Rockstar Games, appdata, or next to the RDR2 exe itself, something that would have survived me deleting and reinstalling the mod folder. Has anyone run into this before, where forcing a variant that was marked as not ready ends up breaking things even after a clean reinstall? Is there some way to force a full reset of whatever RDO is caching without losing my actual save progress? Can share more logs or screenshots if that helps, really don't want to lose 100 hours over this. Thanks in advance.
