Red Dead Redemption 2 gets a physics ragdoll overhaul mod

Modder ‘GEOLOGIST’ has released an amazing new mod for Red Dead Redemption 2 that aims to overhaul its physics ragdolls. This mod will make the deaths of all enemies and NPCs more cinematic, and below you can find a video that showcases it in action.

Going into more details, this mod allows NPCs to grab their head and stumble around when shot in the head. NPCs can also freeze, look down at the wound, and then stare at the player when shot in the abdomen.

The mod also introduces different reactions when shot with different ammo types, and allows NPCs to instantly fall down when knocked out. Moreover, NPCs will fall down or stumble around for a bit when hit with a throwing item.

Overall, this is a pretty cool mod that you can download from here. Here’s also a video that shows off these new cinematic physics ragdoll effects.

Speaking of RDR 2, we also suggest downloading the following mods for it. In theory, these mods should be compatible with Visual Redemption. So, for starters, there is this AI-enhanced HD Texture Pack that overhauls all weapons. Then we have this 2K Texture Pack that overhauls all NPCs. Additionally, you can download a mod that adds an unofficial New Game+ Mode. Here is also a mod that overhauls the interior lighting of buildings. Let’s also not forget this cool mod that enables bullet penetration. Red Dead Redemption 2 also has a gameplay mod that allows the player to use NPC-exclusive scenarios. And finally, this mod adds support for DLSS Ultra Quality & DLAA.

Have fun!

  1. Vanilla physics are so good, that when you present such mod, you have to do side-by-side otherwise these “better” or “overhauls” feels like placebo.

  2. Euphoria is truly a really impressive physics engine!

    Too bad that the company behind it born out of the R&D done in Oxford University never found success as an independent entity in the market.

    In the end, the Scottish Rockstar studio acquired the Euphoria engine and integrated into their R.A.G.E. (Rockstar Advanced Game Engine), and the rest is history…

  3. Speaking in general, those hit ragdoll physics is a thing of beauty! Damn, it looks good!
    Not sure what exactly has improved here, without a side-by-side comparision.
