Historically Accurate Appaloosa Models

🎯 **Mod Introduction**

Do you feel like the Appaloosa horse model in the game is a bit "out there" in terms of historical accuracy? This mod was created to solve this problem! It makes all Appaloosa models in the game smaller and stronger, closer to how they would have looked in the 19th century.

---

🐎 **Mod Function**

This mod changes ***ALL*** Appaloosa models in the game, including:

  • Gang Member's Appaloosa
  • Appaloosa horses of the Mauvery family
  • There's even the rare "Snowflake" Appaloosa horse (you need to use the Rampage modifier to spawn this horse)

Additionally, it removed Nell IV's "moustache." While horses do occasionally grow beards in the real world, it is *EXTREMELY RARE*** for an Appaloosa!

📥 **Installation Guide**

Installation is very simple, just a few steps:

  • Download and install **Lenny's Mod Loader**.
  • Find your Red Dead Redemption 2 game directory (the folder containing the `RDR2.exe` file).
  • Place the module files into the `lml > stream` folder.

Done! If everything is done correctly, all Appaloosa horses in the game will appear as new, more historically accurate models!

💬 **Customized Request**

Love this mod but not happy with a certain part? Or would you like to change the coat color to a certain ***original*** horse coat or mane color?

no problem! As long as you have specific ideas, you can always make a custom request to me. I'll be happy to adjust it for you as long as my time allows.

However, please also understand that making and modifying mods is very time-consuming, so please ***ALWAYS*** make a request only when you really, really want something to be changed!

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.
