Careful reverse engineering brings RDO’s ability card system into story mode

Ability Cards

🎯 Features

This mod carefully reverse-engineers the ability card system in Red Dead Online and transplants it into the story mode! For those who haven't tried this feature in online mode, you can now choose a card in story mode to equip your character with one of six custom dead-eye abilities, and select 3 passive ability cards.

All dead-eye abilities that were originally multiplayer-only have been rebalanced to work in non-slow-motion dead-eye mode (thanks to my friend and modder Modifiver), so dead-eye happens in real-time in single-player mode as well. (Users can still restore the original slow-motion dead-eye effect with some LML adjustments).

Passive abilities allow for the creation of very interesting character builds, giving you a ton of flexibility in crafting your perfect playstyle! Not to mention the art on these cards looks great!

📖 Card details

If you want to know the specific effects of each card (I try to keep them as close to the original as possible), you can read about it on the RDO wiki:

🗺️ How to get it

To purchase and upgrade cards, you need to go to Mrs. Nazar who appears in different locations on the map. She will be marked on the map.

⚠️ Known issues

**Slippery Bastard is currently just a normal dead eye effect because I can't port the multiplayer mode functionality. If I find a solution, I will fix it in a subsequent update. **

There are still some bugs and issues, so be sure to report any issues you find! I'm very busy in real life right now, but will try to fix as many issues as I can.

🛠️ Installation Guide

• Unzip the compressed package
• Place Cards.asi and scripthook rdr2 into the game folder
• If you use RGL (Rockstar Games launcher version of the game), please launch RGL and RDR2 as administrator, otherwise the game will not be able to save/load any data

**OPTIONAL**: If you want a non-slow motion dead eye effect, download the optional file and unzip the replace folder into the lml folder
