Thanks to the RDR2 mode called Live Leak Ragdoll Overhaul developed by the mod maker ‘FireHart100’, we can enter into more realistic interactions with the NPCs in the game. In this mode that regulates the ragdoll physics, the struggles of enemies who are hit and fall to the ground continue. They are working to hold on to life.
RDR2 mode to match ragdoll physics
The mode not only regulates the ragdoll physics, but also improves the explosions. For example, it throws the enemies you attack with dynamite farther in a more realistic way. This mode, which increases the enjoyment and realism you will get from the game , is available for download on Nexus.
If you also want to take a look at what the Live Leak Ragdoll Overhaul mode looks like, you can watch the video below:
What is the physics of ragdoll?
We can explain ragdoll physics as a method that simply forces the people or objects you attack in games to move in a static way. It is the system that determines how the skeletal structure defined in the engine of the game will move. When the character dies, their body begins to squat on the floor, and each joint, which usually seems more realistic, respects these restrictions of movement.
In this way, these predefined movements are both an optimization method that makes the game run faster and a system that prevents the computer from producing unnecessarily bad animations according to its own head.
