Modder ‘DominatorGt’ has released a massive 52GB HD Texture Pack for Red Dead Redemption 2 that aims to overhaul almost all of thh game’s textures. This pack will make the game look sharper and more detailed. As such, it’s a must-have for everyone who plans to replay it.
As I said, this pack aims to overhaul almost all of the game’s textures. In the past, we’ve shared numerous HD Texture Packs that focused on specific things. But now, with this mod, you can simply use this one. The downside is that it’s enormous. We’re talking about three ZIP files that are, in total, 53GB in size. Still, it’s now easier to get crisper textures for the entire game.
The modder also added new cloud types that Rockstar never included in the game. All the temperature settings were made with help from a real meteorologist. The creator used real climate data from places with similar altitude and weather. Because of this, the game now has weather events that never appear in the original version. Every kind of weather also behaves in a realistic way.
And that’s not all. The weather also changes in a more natural way. It now follows slow changes in the atmosphere, like rising pressure, moisture levels, and storm buildup. Clear skies won’t suddenly turn into a storm. Clouds can slowly fade away or grow stronger depending on the temperature and conditions. This makes the weather feel more realistic, with smoother transitions and fewer sudden, immersion-breaking changes.
All in all, this is a really cool graphical overhaul mod for Red Dead Redemption 2. You can go ahead and download it from this link. At the end of the article, you can also find some screenshots from it.
To install it, you’ll have to rename the ZIP files to .001, .002, and .003. This is typical for big ZIP files (those who have lived in the 90s know this procedure pretty well). If you don’t rename them, you’ll get a corrupted folder. Moreover, this mod may not be compatible with other mods. So, make sure to also keep that in mind.
Speaking of RDR2, here are some other cool mods for it. First up is a mod that introduces a very cool New Game+ Mode. Another mod revamps the interior lighting of buildings. There’s also this mod that adds random world events. For some extra fun, there’s a gameplay mod that allows the player to use NPC-exclusive scenarios. You can also download this mod that adds fully functional cars to the game. Last but not least, there’s a mod that brings support for DLSS Ultra Quality & DLAA to the game, and another mod that allows you to explore Nuevo Paraiso.
And that’s not all. D.R.O (DRAMATIC RAGDOLL OVERHAUL) is a mod that aims to overhaul the game’s physics. For VR gamers, we have this VR Mod that allows you to experience RDR2 in VR. Plus, you can download this mod, which adds to the game some cool The Matrix-like bullet time effects.
