Chapter 4 Full Gold Medal High Honor Archive - Minimalist Series
🎮 **Welcome to the pure world of Red Dead Redemption 2! ** This module provides a set of carefully prepared game archives, allowing you to directly experience all the story missions in Chapter 4, and **obtain gold medal evaluations for all of them, while maintaining a high honor value throughout**.
✨ Module Features

- **High Honor Starting**: Arthur Morgan will start your journey in high honor status.
- **Minimalist Design**: The author has touched almost nothing except to advance the story and complete **can't miss** content.

- **Clear Index**: Comes with a text file detailing which mission each archive corresponds to.
📁 Archive content description
The author deliberately avoids a lot of game content to ensure that your experience is maximized:
**🚫 Things the author *did* not do:**
- Try to avoid random events (although the game record encountered it 3 times).
- Did not complete any Stranger quests other than those required to trigger subsequent quests (such as "We Loved, Really" and "Honestly Good Snake Oil").
- No fur hunting was done, so the **backpack does not have any upgrades**.
- Never even met the Trapper, let alone sold anything to him. No clothing was purchased either.
*Animal manuals are almost untouched, with a few exceptions such as deer.
*Didn't buy any guns, just got free or found weapons (but fully upgraded the few I had).
- There is no deliberate progress in any challenge (although there is inevitably a small amount of progress, such as skinning 3 deerskins in the priest mission and playing a few hands of poker).
- Not a single piece of gold bar** or miscellaneous loot has been picked up.
**✅ What the author *has* done:**
- Collected almost all the aged pirate rum, ginseng elixir and valerian root to ensure that Arthur's core attributes are not weak.
*Basically upgraded the camp's supplies, medical, armory, tents (for fast travel), stables, and chicken coop, but did not add any decorations.
- Beginning in Chapter 3, ride the "Brindle Arabian Horse" found in the mountains near Wapiti (itself a second-class Arabian horse).
- **(Mild Spoiler Alert)** Obtained the Carcano Rifle in the Companion Mission with Uncle, and the Mauser Pistol in the "Revenge Is Cold" mission.
- Accumulate funds early on by hijacking passenger trains to the Ambarino Tunnel multiple times (this way makes money quickly and does not increase the bounty).

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.
