About this mod Machine translation

Install:

  • Download and install AB's ScripthookRDR2:
  • Make sure you have an asi loader, which usually comes with Scripthook.
  • Copy the DogCompanion.asi and DogCompanion folders to the game's root folder.

How to use:

  • Find a dog you like and pat it.
  • When you tap it, you'll notice a new "Bond" prompt. Press the shortcut key and the dog will join you.

Main features:

  • Your dog will follow you and can be told to sit and wait. If you go inside, it will be waiting for you outside.
  • Whistle for your dog to come back to you. Please note that there is a whistling range and if your dog is too far away it will not respond to your calls.
  • If it is lost, you can retrieve your dog by interacting with your main horse and activating the correct prompts.
  • Your dog will intervene in the melee and attack your opponent.
  • You can order your dog to attack other animals or NPCs.
  • Your dog will help you hunt in various ways: After you hunt an animal, your dog will run to its location and start barking, helping you find it (unless it is told to stay).
  • When tracking an animal, your dog will use its senses and help find it quickly.
  • Your dog will become irritated by nearby predators and attack them if they get too close.
  • This mod adds a dedicated new core for your dog's health. The lower his core is, the slower his health regenerates.
  • In order to fully restore your dog's core and health, it needs to be fed with prey.
  • This mod provides a complete game tutorial and tips.
  • You can name your dog and change it anytime in the game.
  • You can get rid of your dog at any time.
  • Some functions can be switched through the settings file under RDR2/DogCompanion/DogCompanion.ini.

Known issues:

-Does not save the dog's original color and uses the default color. This is because there is no way (as far as I know) to retrieve the peds gear index. If you know anything about this please let me know.

  • Dog core was misplaced when using extended radar mode. If you find it too annoying, you can switch cores in the settings file.

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.
