Where Does RDR2 Store Mods?
RDR2 mods live in lml and scripts folders under the install via Lenny's Mod Loader. Saves stay separate per the saves post.

Save files hold Arthur while mods change the frontier. Lenny's Mod Loader streams content from an lml folder mirroring game paths. Script mods hook beside the executable.
The existing saves post covers story progress; this one covers the mod side. Online play bans modified installs, so keep a clean copy for multiplayer. Loader version must match the game build.

Frequently asked questions
How do I install RDR2 mods?
Install Lenny's Mod Loader, then drop mod folders into lml with .asi scripts beside the exe. LML loads streamed content while script hooks need their runtimes. Keep a vanilla backup before the first mod.
How do I back up a modded install?
Copy the lml folder plus scripts with the game quit, plus saves from the saves post. Mods travel as streamed files while saves reference vanilla entities. Title updates break script hooks first, so check loader compatibility.
