Highest Bounty - The Ultimate Bounty Hunter

🎯 **Comprehensive overhaul of Red Dead Redemption 2’s bounty hunter system! **

This is the first publicly released mod I've made, and I welcome your feedback to help me improve! This mod is inspired by Rededrunk's Hunted mod.

🚀 Core functions

Fully customizable framework

  • **Smart Spawn System**: Bounty Hunters can spawn wherever you are
  • **Time Control**: Custom spawn interval (in-game hours)
  • **Distance Adjustment**: Control how far away the bounty hunter spawns from you
  • **Multiple Variants**: Supports different types of bounty hunter configurations
  • **Quantity Control**: Set the number of bounty hunters generated each time
  • **Weapon Configuration**: Fully customizable weapon loadout

Intelligent AI system

  • **Safe Area**: Will not spawn in safe areas such as campsites
  • **Visual field mechanism**: The hostile state will only be triggered within 40 meters, giving you reaction time
  • **Searching Behavior**: Bounty hunters will search houses, buildings, rooms, and even climb ladders to find you
  • **Abandon Mechanism**: If they can't find you within 60-120 seconds, they will give up the pursuit

Five-level bounty system

  • **Graded Difficulty**: Five customizable bounty levels, each level corresponds to a different difficulty
  • **Amount Limit**: The game engine limits the bounty amount to a maximum of $1,500.
  • **THREE VARIANTS**: On foot, with dog, and mounted bounty hunter

🎮 Featured gameplay

Three types of bounty hunters

  • **On Foot Chase** - Chase your bounty hunter on foot
  • **Search with Dogs** - A team of bounty hunters equipped with hounds
  • **Horseback Pursuit** - Come on horseback and the horse can be captured after being forced to dismount.

Hidden bounty mechanism

  • Automatically add hidden bounties at the end of each day
  • Bounty Hunter will only be triggered if there is a bounty in the current area
  • The original bounty hunter system can be completely disabled

⚡ Most Wanted Mode

When a certain number of bounty hunter waves are encountered in total, the **Most Wanted Mode** is triggered:

  • Face three waves of powerful enemies
  • Bounty hunters are more aggressive and have increased vision range
  • Unable to escape pursuit, must fight to the end
  • Successful survival will clear all bounties in the current area

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.
