John can swim

🏊‍♂️ **Let John Marston swim in the water too! **

This mod gives John Marston in Red Dead Redemption 2 swimming abilities similar to Arthur Morgan. Now, John is no longer the "landlubber" who gets exhausted when he touches water!

✨ Main functions

  • **Unlocked Swimming Ability**: John can now swim freely in the water like Arthur.
  • **Reasonable physical exertion**: Removed the setting that John's physical strength will be exhausted immediately after entering the water, and changed it to normal and gradual physical exertion, making the swimming experience more realistic and feasible.

🛠️ Installation instructions

**IMPORTANT**: Using this mod requires **Lenny's Mod Loader (LML)** to be installed first.

  • Make sure you have installed Lenny's Mod Loader correctly.
  • Copy the downloaded `John Can Swim` folder to the `lml` folder of the game.
  • Start the game and enjoy John’s new skills!

💡 **Usage Suggestions**: Now you can safely explore areas in the game that require wading or swimming, and no longer have to worry about John accidentally drowning! Come and try to see John swimming in the river.

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.
