Red Dead Race Horses

🐎 Welcome to the world of horse racing in Red Dead Redemption

These files are designed specifically for Red Dead horse racing fans! You can give your current horse any coat color appearance you want (by renaming the desired coat color file to the name of the horse you own), or give any horse a different body by placing the required files into the stream folder (see "Installation Method" for details).

🌟 Recommendations for other types of modules

  • Red Dead Draft Horse
  • Red Dead Multiclass Horse
  • Red Dead Riding Horse
  • Red Dead War Horse

⚙️ Installation requirements

  • **Lenny's mod loader** (please see the requirements)
  • "version.dll" file in **Lenny's simple trainer**
💡 **IMPORTANT NOTE**: If you are installing the above mods for the first time, be sure to follow their instructions carefully. Without placing "version.dll" into the root folder, newer online coat colors will not load correctly in story mode, which will cause the horse to become partially invisible!

---

📦 Installation method

Unzip the required files and place them into the `Red Dead Redemption 2/lml/stream` folder. If the stream folder does not exist, it needs to be created manually.

⚠️ Note: Do not put the .rar compressed package directly into the stream folder

🎨 Replace other horses

Rename the ymt file to the horse file name you want to replace. The file contains a list of all available names.

📏 Adjust horse size

Open the desired file using a text editor and adjust the zoom value as needed. The file contains a picture description of the location of the zoom values.

**Example size values:**

  • Arabian Horse: 0.91875000
  • Kentucky Saddle Horse: 1.01700000
  • Hungarian Half-blood Horse: 1.08750000
  • Sharma: 1.14370000

⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTE

  • These are not custom coat colors, they are Rockstar's original designs, I only changed the horse's body type
  • These are cosmetic changes only and will not affect the horse's attributes or NPC reactions to the horse.
  • Feel free to use and modify these files for experimentation

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.
