No GPS - No MiniMap

🎮 **Explore the West like an outlaw in 1899! ** This mod removes the GPS and minimap from modern games, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the wild world of Red Dead Redemption 2.

🗺️ Module function

  • **Remove GPS Navigation**: Say goodbye to route indicators on the screen and rely on road signs, the sun and memory to find your way.
  • **Hidden Mini Map**: There is no longer a mini radar in the corner of the screen, allowing you to focus on the magnificent scenery and potential threats in front of you.
  • **Ultimate immersive experience**: truly feel the confusion and joy of discovery of travelers at the end of the 19th century.

⚙️ Instructions for use

**hint**

  • If you are using the "off on demand" version, holding down the radar key (usually the `Alt` key or the `D-pad down` on the controller) will temporarily display the minimap.
  • If you are using the "Always Off" version, make sure to turn on the "Always Hide HUD" option in the game settings to activate the core display (otherwise some core information may not be displayed).

**Installation method**

  • Place the mod file into the root directory of your "Red Dead Redemption 2" game.

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.
