QoL - Arthur and Johnny

🎮 **A quality of life mod focused on fixing the appearance of game characters**

✨ Module function

This mod focuses on overhauling John Marston, while also fixing some of the issues with Arthur Morgan in the base game. My goal is to bring these characters to an acceptable state without adding anything superfluous.

**Key features include:**

  • 🌱 **DYNAMIC HAIR GROWTH SYSTEM** - John has a fully functional hair growth system, including NPC hair color
  • 🎭 **Beta/NPC head model** - Added beta/NPC head model for Marston
  • 👕 **NPC sized torso** - John uses an NPC sized torso, completely eliminating the famous neck seam issue
  • 🔫 **NPC Weapons** - John can now use NPC weapons and equipment
  • 💫 **Ammo Belt Feature** - Ammo belts on outfits such as cowboy outfits now actually hold bullets
  • 🎨 **Texture Improvements** - Improvements have been made to John's various textures
  • 🎩 **Hats Position Adjustment** - Adjusted the wearing position of some of Marston's hats
  • 📏 **1.00 Adaptation** - John's version 1.00 adaptation
  • 🧪 **1.00 MODELS** - Contains some models from version 1.00
  • ⚡ **PHYSICS** - Version 1.00 of holster, holster and bandolier physics
  • 🔪 **Scabbard Texture** - Adjusted Arthur's scabbard texture to be consistent with other equipment
  • ❄️ **Winter Outfit** - Arthur retains the Chapter 1 version of his winter outfit
  • 👔 **SHIRTS ADDED** - Added a shirt under the jacket of his outfit in Chapter 1 (he was naked in the original)
  • 🧥 **Coat Status Fix** - Fixed the coat status of the Gunner costume (the original version always used the off-hand version)
  • 🎯 **Correct Equipment** - Correct belt and holster for the 1899 Grizzly Outlaw
  • 👁️ **Eyebrow Fix** - Fixed Arthur's eyebrow binding issue (broken in day one patch)
  • 🐎 **Horse Accessories** - Added horseshoes, scabbards and lasso accessories for player horses
  • 🥚 **Easter Egg** - Added a small easter egg in the end credits

⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTE

The mod swaps the hairstyle entries John is given out left and right so that he has a shorter version of his hair at the beginning of the epilogue, allowing it to grow naturally through epilogue I and epilogue II without the need for a trip to the barber.

📦 Installation method

Place this mod into your LML folder and make sure there are no conflicts with any files in the mod.

**IMPORTANT NOTE:** If there is a "player_three.ymt" file in the stream folder, please **delete it immediately**, otherwise it will cause John's chest to penetrate the shirt.

🐛 Known issues

  • John's weathered holster may have molded into his gun (looking for a fix)
  • Certain jackets may have molding on John's shoulders
  • You may see mold wear when changing clothing, but it will disappear after selecting clothing.

🙏 Special thanks

Thanks to GuiCorleone and Suika for generously lending me their models so I can make the best mods possible. Special thanks to Branjer for helping test this mod. Also thanks to Face21 on Discord for fixing the beard tint issue in shop_items.

If you're looking for a quality of life mod that's very close to the original, without the extra fluff, this is for you!

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.
