RDR1 Weapon System Overhaul
✨ Core Functions
This mod aims to completely transform the weapon system of "Red Dead Redemption 2" to make it closer to the classic experience of the original "Red Dead Redemption"!
- **Full Weapon Carry**: Now you can carry all your weapons at once, no more running back to your horse to get your gun.
- **Remove loading action**: Simplify the operation and make shooting smoother.
- **Ammunition Capacity Adjustment**: The ammunition capacity of all weapons has been adjusted to be consistent with RDR1.
- **Remove Weapon Holster Strap**: When the weapon is drawn, the holster strap will automatically disappear for a cleaner appearance.
- **Optimize shoulder weapon display**: Removed the second long gun appearing on the shoulder model (optional feature).
- **Reload Time Synchronization**: The weapon's reload time has been modified to match the speed of RDR1.
- **REMOVED WEAPON WEAR**: Your weapons will no longer lose performance with use.
- **Weapon attribute adjustment**: All data of the weapon have been completely modified to restore the classic feel.

📥 Installation Guide
**Required Tools**: You will need to install **Lenny's Mod Loader (LML)** first, which can be found here.
**Installation steps**:
- If you have installed the "Red Dead Offline" module, please first delete the file with the same name as this module in the `lml\red_dead_offline\weapons` folder.
- Drag the `rdrweapons` or `rdrweapons_bothlongarms` folder into your `lml` directory.
⚠️ **IMPORTANT NOTE**: `rdrweapons` and `rdrweapons_bothlongarms` **You can only choose one of the two to install**!
**About dual-wielding weapons**: Currently, the dual-wielding function has compatibility issues with "Full Weapon Carry" and the weapon modifications of this mod. Until the author finds a way to disable dual-wielding, it is recommended to install this mod to disable dual-wielding for the best experience.

⚠️ Known issues
- **Gunsmith interface display abnormality**: The long gun may appear invisible in the gunsmith interface.
- *(Not sure if it is currently fixable, it is recommended to complete the weapon customization you want before installing this mod.) *
- **Switching Weapons in Cover**: Switching an unequipped weapon while in cover may have no effect and will cause the character to get stuck until leaving cover.
- *(Again, this involves animation issues that may not be fixed for the time being.) *

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- 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.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- 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.
