UPDATE Bandit Hideouts v1.45 Changelog Hired Guns Added - New Patrol command — send a hired gun out to walk a wide loop (~25m) around a spot you choose, gun in hand, on the lookout, until you tell him to stop. When stopped, he now walks straight back to you and regroups instead of just wandering off wherever he happens to be. - New Hired Gun Presets — 8 ready-made loadouts (Cowhand, Gunslinger, Bounty Hunter, Mountain Man, Skirmisher, Shotgunner, Rifleman, Bow Hunter), each with its own weapons and fighting style. Pick a preset and get an instantly-equipped hired gun with a fitting random look, no need to build one from scratch. - New standalone Hired Gun Presets option on the main hire menu, separate from Custom Hire (which still has its own preset-loadout option too, if you'd rather pick the model yourself). - New commands: Attack Target, Revive All, Cover Me, Spread Out, Regroup, Stealth Mode, and Mount All / Dismount All. - New group command menu (press ~) allows you to give an order to all your hired guns at once — formations, Mount All, Attack Target, and every other whole-group command — instead of only being able to command one hg at a time. - New hired gun vendor locations: Manzanita Post, and Emerald Ranch Fence. - Map blip of an ammo icon show every location where you can hire a gunman. - New ini setting: hired guns can now stay with you during story missions instead of being dismissed when one starts. - New ini setting: control how much health your hired gun's horse has, so it doesn't go down easily in a fight.

Fixed - Fixed a race condition on fresh saves that could stop hired guns from loading in properly. - Fixed hired guns re-mounting their horse immediately after being told to wash up. - Fixed Stay Here not actually keeping a hired gun in place he'd still run off to join fights far away. - Fixed hired guns getting permanently stuck without a horse if it got spooked and ran off during Mount All, they now automatically get a fresh horse instead of eventually climbing on yours. - Fixed wagon passenger hired guns never fighting back against enemies attacking from behind unless you'd already noticed and engaged yourself. - Fixed hired guns randomly climbing into rear wagon seats uninvited, ending up facing backwards and unable to do anything. - Fixed hired guns spawning on tables and railings inside the Armadillo, Tumbleweed saloons with new spawn positions. - Fixed hired guns spawning inside or on top of buildings in Annesburg and Van Horn. - Fixed not being able to hire Van der Linde gang members. - Fixed hired guns riding shotgun on a wagon not actually using their rifle or shotgun. - Fixed hired guns running away instead of fighting back when bounty hunters came after you.

Leave at 0 to keep getting paid instantly like before. - COMMANDS_KEY_HIREDGUN_GROUP (default: `` ` `` / tilde) — the key that opens the new whole-crew group command menu. - HIRED_GUNS_LEGACY_COMMANDS (0/1, default 0) — set to 1 to enable direct, single-press universal hotkeys for common all-hired-gun commands, instead of going through the menu.

Hideouts & Post Office Economy Added - New region-based bounty system: instead of getting paid the instant you clear a hideout, the money now is accumulated at that region's Post Office like a bank account which then it can be withdrawn. - New on-screen banner that shows your owed bounty total for a region each time you clear a hideout. - New Post Office collection menus at 14 locations across the map — Rhodes, Emerald Ranch station, Saint Denis, Van Horn, Annesburg, Valentine, Riggs Station, Wallace Station, Strawberry, Benedict Point, Armadillo, Blackwater, Flatneck Station, and Abandoned Trading Post. - Added armed females to the Generic gang. - Added a few new props and a bandit to Lucky's cabin. - Added props scale with a hideouts min/max spawned bandits and an ini setting to enable/disalbe the function.

Changed - Roaming bandits now spawn closer to you when you're in a town, so they can actually turn up in the settlement instead of way out in the countryside where you'd never run into them. - A roaming group that's wandered off and never crossed paths with you now gets cleared out after a few minutes, so a new group can spawn nearer to you. Fixed - Fixed roaming bandits chasing you relentlessly across the map once they spotted you, acting like the bandit posse instead of the wandering bandits they're meant to be. They'll now give up and go back to roaming if you break away and stay out of sight. Blips and icons Added - New setting to turn off the red dots that mark bandits on your map and minimap. On by default, turn it off and you won't know where bandits are until you actually spot them yourself. - New ini setting for blips: SHOW_BANDIT_BLIPS=1 // 1=Enabled by default.

Sorry not doing a light version, all you need to do is open the Bandit_Hideouts.ini go to the "Disable Individual Hideouts" list which looks like this in the ini: // DISABLE INDIVIDUAL HIDEOUTS // and set all the hideouts in each region to 0 that you dont want to spawn. A whole new version with less hideouts is not realistic considering it takes 45 minutes, to 3hrs to build one hideout. To even remove a 100 hideouts from the code itself would take 3-4hrs probably more just to do to get it down to only 43 hideouts or a number in that area. It would take you way less time to just go through the list as suggested and set a bunch of them in each region to 0, then they wont spawn. You can control everything in the mod through the included ini. There is also a high resolution downloadable map you can look at and see what hideouts and ambush points with name and number there are.

No, mods have their own requirements based on what they are. You have two basic mod types, LML and ASI, one goes into a folder, the other goes into the root directory. Lml mods or also known as Lenny Mod loader mods, Lml mods have a folder you put them into, most of those mods come as folders which go into the lml folder. Then you have ASI mods which are mods which all go into the root game directory, which if you have the game on steam would be here: C:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Red Dead Redemption 2 keep in mind that asi mods have requirements too, some work by themselves, but most require an external files like Scripthook. Some lml mods may be good by themselves, depends what they do, but some lml mods mat require other external type files, like Rampage trainer, or offline content unlocker as examples, those are also mods. For ASI mods, most times they mainly require AB Scripthook, or the updated version which is ScripthookRDR2 V2. My suggestion is if you want to use a mod in your game, then read the details on the mod page on what that mod does, what to expect, what to look for, and then preview the files, look for any requirements it may have. I would also suggest before you download and install any mod to review any comments, or posts be it here on this website, or the Nexus website for comments discussing the mod. What you want to look for is players either asking questions, about issues with the mod, or just general stuff. imo if you see alot of comments where players are complaining or asking about something not working, or some problem, and you dont see the author's reply then imo try to look for any comments that may provide answers, fixes or a work around for whatever issue that mod may have if any. Dont just look at comments and go and ask a question, you got to put your two cents together, look at when the comments were posted, what their talking about and whether the author responded, and or still responds, and look at the time/date at when they responded. Authors that dont respond either moved on, or are to busy to reply or simply not interested, or dont have notifications on to tell them someone replied. So keep in mind that if you ask a question to an author about something in the mod and you haven't seen him respond to previous questions, then ... your wasting your time. Though others could respond and may know the answer to whatever your asking, so if you have a question do some research first, and then if nothing is found then post the question in general. Search first then ask questions. Hope that helps.

Heres 2 parts of my directory, top and bottom: All the ASI files are mods, then i use reshade, so if you dont have those then dont worry thats just my directory, not how its supposed to look like for you. If you have ASI mods then yes they will be in your RDR2 directory. But i have both LML mods which in the first pic you can see lml at the top, all lml mods go in there. Then all ASI mods go into the main directory. A good mod load order? I dont use the mod manager i do everything manually, and everything gets loaded as far as im aware based on the name of the mod in alphabetical order, never had an issue with it. But ya show me a pic and let me see what your running. Yes, but how old are you talking about as im using the dinput8.dll from 2024 only reason is i just havent gotten around to updating it to the latest, and tbh its been working fine regardless. Mods that require version.dll? Idk what mods are you using that require version.dll? Maybe remove version.dll and see if those mods work with dinput8.dll but you cant run both dinput8.dll and version.dll

There is AB Scripthook and V2 both use a dinput8.dll but use only one not both, i suggest using V2 version and no version.dll You dont need version.dll its not the same as the dinput8.dll. Mod your trying to use based on your OP is an lml mod you dont even need Scripthook, you need Lenny's Mod loader, i would recommend installing that manually so you see a folder in your RDR2 directory that is named lml then all lml mods are put into that folder. If your using and or installing an ASI mod then its name will be modname.asi and ASI mods normally require Scripthook. Different versions of the same mods are usually running different functions/features, most times its just one or the other not both, so i suggest if you see two versions of a mod look for any information on either, either through the mod's post tab, or reviews, questions ect,.

Which is it? Your trying to get Red Dead Offline to work specifically? Or you also asking about Scripthook based asi mods? Red Dead Offline is an lml mod, you need Lenny's mod loader to run that, hence the instructions on the mod page: "Installation Download with Mod Manager from here or drag and drop the extracted folder into your LML folder so that you have a structure like "Red Dead Redemption 2\lml\red_dead_offline". Please make sure to have Lenny's Simple Trainer or Outfit Changer installed to load all multiplayer components! So locate and install Lenny's mod loader, Lenny's simple trainer, or use Outfit Changer as per the instructions, what i bolded above. I would just start with LML and go from there.

Update v1.41 Changelog: - Added new prop to the code to be spawned with hideouts. - Added new props to River's End hideout. - Added new props to Lone Mule stead hideout. - Added new props to Logging camp hideout. - Added new props to Fort Riggs hideout. - Added new props to Montos Rest hideout. - Added new props to Cane Break Manor hideout. - Added new props to Aberdeen Pig Farm hideout. - Added new hideout Montana Peninsula - Added new hideout Mutant House - Reduced the despawn distance of Lone Mule Stead hideout. - Reduced the spawn and despawn distances of Copperhead landing hideout.

As you can see in the settings itself of the ini, it disables the startup, overlay, and interface, unless your using something for developing a mod or working on a script their really not needed. Disadvantages? Not really, game wont load with it enabled so that is a disadvantage just having it enabled, outside that idk, im sure someone else could comment on the subject, but imo your not losing anything with those set.

ATTENTION - change in versions There was an issue discovered on the mod page's changelog. The changelog on the description tab drop down menu wasn't updating to version 1.36 when i added it on May 10th, 2025. Looking into it i discovered that there cant be version numbers with letters in them for example v1.34A thats what screwed up the order. So i had to change the version numbers of v1.34A to v1.35 and v1.35 to v1.36. Latest and last update that was posted on May 10th,2025 was considered version 1.36 but its really v1.37 I had reuploaded the latest version that was labeled v1.36 to v1.37 so that the actual zip file is renamed Bandit_Hideouts v1.37 ======================= So you understand the latest version of the mod is v1.37 not v1.36 if you downloaded v1.36 previously on May 10th, 2025 then you dont need the latest version v1.37 because you already have it. ==================== If your new to the mod and haven't downloaded any files, then v1.37 Main File is what you want. If your updating from a previous version and want to get the latest version then v1.37 is what you want. Any questions regarding this then ask, sorry for the inconvenience and confusion.

Update v1.37 - Expanded Abandoned Mission hideout with new props. - Expanded Plainview hideout with new props. - Added new props to Cueva Seca hideout. - Added new props to Benedict Hill hideout. - Added new props to Mercer station hideout. - Added new props to Pleasance House hideout.

Oh you mean my mod 😉 Ya both work fine with ScripthookRDR2 V2. All i can suggest with Scripthooks is to make sure your using the latest Dinput8.dll which is the asi loader and then if AB Scripthook gives you issues or the game isn't loading right or the mod is acting funny then use the v2 version. I switched to the V2 version, updated my dinput8.dll and switched to the Vulkin api late last year and i've had nothing but great performance and a solid game. Update your dinput8.dll The dinput8.dll that comes with AB Scripthook is out of date, its from 2021, the latest update for dinput8.dll is from July 2024 unless they update it again in the future. You can get it from this website: https://github.com/ThirteenAG/Ultimate-ASI-Loader/releases If you want an added performance i highly recommend this mod Unknown Error FFFFFFFF Fix mod hope that helps!

Getting back to this subject i have some possible solutions for those getting the infinite loading screen. Based on my own discoveries, and feedback on my Bandit Hideouts mod with similar issues, we solved this, so here are a couple of solutions that may fix the issue if your using either AB Scripthhook or ScripthookRDR2 V2 version. If your using ScripthookRDR2 V2 then you need to set the following to false in the ScriptHookConfig.ini like this: [Lua] Load on startup = false [Interface] Enable = false [Overlay] Enable = false [General] Enable Reload Hotkey = true Show errors = true Show notifications = true [Open Key] Hold Key = 16 Press Key = 45 If your using Rampage trainer along with AB Scripthook then Rampage may be causing the issue.
