Removed the annoying mechanic in the game that forces weapons to be equipped when dismounting before a mission that is about to involve a shootout

Disable automatic horse equipment

🐎 Function description

This mod disables the ability to auto-equip weapons when dismounting before/during missions where gunfights are about to occur. In these cases the game forces you to equip 2 long weapons, which I personally find extremely annoying as there is often no time to holster them... so here is a solution! Hope you like it!

✅ Compatibility

Yes, this mod is fully compatible with the "No Auto Horse Retract" mod!

📦 Installation method

Unzip the zip package and place the NoAutoEquip.asi and scripthook rdr2 files into the game folder.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. 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.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. 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.
