Authentic Army Uniform - Nutmeg Canvas
🎖️ **Recreate historical and authentic U.S. Army uniforms**
I redesigned the army uniforms in the game to be closer to their historically authentic appearance. This mod is based on real historical military uniform specifications, bringing a more realistic military experience to "Red Dead Redemption 2".
📜 Historical background
The nutmeg canvas uniform (also known as the brown cotton canvas uniform) had been issued to some soldiers before the Spanish-American War, although not all soldiers were issued this uniform. Khaki uniforms were introduced during the Spanish-American War.
🎖️ Military rank identification system
**Pant leg stripe logo:**
- Corporal: ½ inch wide stripe
-Sergeant: 1 inch wide stripe
- Officer: 1½-inch wide stripe
**Military Color Identification:**
- Artillery: Red
- Cavalry: lemon yellow (before 1886), later changed to dark yellow
- Infantry: dark blue (officers are sky blue), changed to white after 1885, then changed back to sky blue in 1902
- Staff officer: dark blue (1898 khaki uniform period)

🎮 Usage suggestions
Want to travel the West as an American soldier? It is recommended to use a mod trainer such as Rampage Trainer to switch the player model to mp_male for full movement and weapon aiming functionality. Remember to save the game before proceeding!
**Rampage Trainer users:**
In game open menu > Player > Wardrobe > Model Changer > Search Peds > Enter mp_male and select in human category and you can select all the uniforms I made

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
