Pearson's camp upgrades aren't enough! Arthur Callahan, Fenton, and Tacitus Kilgore decided to upgrade Camp Shady Belle themselves. This is a personal map I created that should make the gang feel like they've settled in Shady Belle. For those seeking a luxurious life, this is not the map for you, use it only in Chapter 4.

Pearson's camp upgrades aren't enough! Arthur Callahan, Fenton, and Tacitus Kilgore decided to upgrade Camp Shady Belle themselves. This is a personal map I created that should make the gang feel like they've settled in Shady Belle. For those seeking a luxurious life, this is not the map for you, use it only in Chapter 4.

Shady Belle expanded camp upgrade

🏕️Mod Overview

Tired of the primitive Shady Belle camp? This mod adds over 350 new objects to the camp, making the Van der Linde gang truly settled in Shady Belle! From fencing to lighting, from stables to living areas, the camp is fully immersed and realistic.

⚙️ Installation requirements

  • Latest version of Rampage Trainer

📦 Installation method

Download and extract the ZIP file to the "`//RampageFiles/Spooner/Autoload`" folder. Make sure the `shady_belle_upgrades.xml` file is located in the Autoload folder. Rampage can automatically load multiple files, and you can load multiple maps unless there is a conflict.

🌟 Main functions

**🏰 The camp has been fully upgraded**

  • 350+ new objects scattered throughout Shady Belle camp (mansion, main camp, back area, swamp area, etc.)
  • Added new fences and roadblocks, the camp now has only a few main entry points
  • Gang members and camp guards need to use longer routes to reach the perimeter of the camp

**💡 Lighting and Environmental Improvement**

  • Add low-brightness lanterns, bonfires and candles to improve lighting inside and outside the mansion
  • Added awnings/tents to most scene locations (not all!)
  • Add rugs to where uncle usually sleeps and sits (should slow down his back pain 😂)

**🏠 Room and facility improvements**

  • Fixed hole in Marston's family room wall
  • Fixed windows in Arthur Morgan's room
  • Added quick access to Arthur's room (ladder inspired by Shady Belle Rework mod)
  • Added privacy curtains/temporary doors to ladies area

**🐎 ANIMALS AND UTILITY FACILITIES**

  • Added drinking trough for horses
  • Added hitching posts to the broken structure in the back area (this is where Micah usually is when not in the main camp)
  • Added beds for Susan, Strauss and Pearson

**🌳Natural environment beautification**

  • Added trees (including dead trees, fallen trees, saplings) and flowers throughout the camp
  • Added wooden planks as pathways around the main camp
  • Added several chests and logs that Arthur can interact with if you have the Immersive Scenes mod

🎮 Compatibility Notes

  • LOD set to 150 for all objects (LOD 100 files have been uploaded to optional files for better performance friendly options)
  • If you have Mary Linton Join the Gang mod, beds have been added to Arthur's room next to Mary/your companion's bed
  • No blocking of NPC scenes (most scenes where a lot of time is spent observing gang members, no items placed that would block their movements, including Cain the Dog)

*If you find any objects that break the scene or mission, please inform the author (attached screenshots) and the author will try to repair/remove the offending objects. *

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.
