No automatic horseback retractable gun

🐎 Features

This module is inspired by alfabravozapa's "disable horseback retraction" module, which specifically disables the automatic retraction function of weapons on horseback while fully retaining the entire horseback retraction system.

In the original game, when Arthur/John mounts up with any spear on his back, the gun will automatically retract after about 10-15 seconds. With this mod, this will no longer happen!

However, the manual holster function is still retained - if you press the Tab key or manually holster the weapon through the weapon wheel, the character will still holster the weapon like the original.

⚡ Compatibility

This mod has no restrictions, is very lightweight and is fully compatible with all weapon mods.

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.
