    First off, this tutorial is based on official spoof's tutorial, but since his method of doing this is outdated and doesn't work anymore I decided to put up a new tutorial on how to mod Red Dead Redemption's Single Player and Multiplayer using savegames. The savegames for Single Player mode are 100% savegames and there's also a Multiplayer savegame which gives you Level 50 and more in multiplayer. I've also included an options savegame which includes all cheats there are. Please note, by using these savegame mods, you won't be able to obtain some Achievements. Please note that I made every single one of those and although they may seem simmilar to others, those are mine.

    Things you will need to have:
    How to put the savegames on your USB:
    1. [Xbox] Sign your Xbox LIVE profile out.
    2. [Xbox] Press the "Guide" Button in the middle of your controller.
    3. [Xbox] In the Guide, go to "Settings" (far right tab) and select "System Settings".
    4. [Xbox] Select "Storage" and move your gamerprofile to your USB.
    5. [PC] Take the USB out of your Xbox and put it in your PC.
    6. [PC] Start up Modio and wait for it to load up.
    7. [PC] In Modio, click "Open a save" and select the savegame you've downloaded.
    8. [PC] Once it's loaded, click "Rehash and Resign" once.
    9. [PC] Once rehashed, click "Save to device", select your own USB when asked to, and click your gamerprofile.
    10. [Xbox] If everything went right, you should now be able to use those savegames. Plug the USB in your Xbox and test it out!
    What does these mods include?
    Original campaign savegame:
    • Items: All Horses, War Horse, Survivalist Map, Horse Stamina Ups, Dead Eye Refills, HP Refills, Pardon Letter x7, Bandolier, Binoculars, Campfire, Treasure Map.

    You're wrong. I have seen not a single report of someone being banned because of savegame modding up 'till this point.

    Awesome Skills:
    The save files are encrypted
    However, this program helps you to extract the blocks of RDR's savegame files
    Hope you discover something new

    single player doesn't work just puts you at the start of the game.

    It does work, but since it's a modded savegame you should have everything unlocked from the beginning.

    I'm sorry, I am not God and therefor I don't know everything.
    I don't really know how to edit the archives in the Original savegame - since I can't test -, but I was able to edit the archives in the Zombie savegame, and yes this basically what it looks like, although I think this is only for location purposes. As for that, I used the Beecher's Hope spawn in the Undead Nightmare save and pushed the mission pointer where it skipped the first cutscene but still being able to launch the actual campaign missions, which is also why the tutorial screens come up when loading the savegame for the first time, but it already has all been done. I was testing some custom pointers ($185ff5a4 and $100fffa5 proritized FF) with spush (spush [0xF] 'special') and fpush, but that didn't really work, although I did end up with some sort of noclip glitch, about the same as the flying glitch (where you don't see your own character and move upwards in one line) but only this time I saw my character and was able to change the direction I was heading. I, however, won't release this yet as it seems to crash ones being up around 1500ft in the air, I already have thought of an solution though but I have to put it to the test. Also, in the Muliplayer savegame and Options savegame (which is incredibly hard to edit), I have been able to actually produce custom cheats, like a Rapidfire glitch/mod (the video of someone testing it should be around youtube), I only havn't been able to set different texts and I also havn't been able to activate / deactivate / activate (in that order) yet, without having to reload the MP save. A part of the noclip (error) glitch and custom cheats:

    Code:
    02fa2f: fff native native 2af0 => 825:$185ff5a4, (3):0
    02fa30: 111 stackget 8
    02fa31: 014 spush [0xF] 'special'
    02fa32: 014 aset 1
    02fa33: 037 pgetimm0 125
    02fa34: 044 native native fa25 => 479:$100fffa5, (FF):1
    02fa35: 063 psetimm0 126
    02fa36: 058 stackgetp 4
    02fa37: 063 psetimm1 228
    02fa38: 059 stackget 4
    02fa39: 037 ipush1 ipush 3B
    02fa3a: 053 cget 3
    02fa3b: 111 spush spush [0xf] 'frov_dummy'
    02fa3c: 111 spush spush [0x12] 'frov_dummy_set'
    02fa3d: 053 cset 4
    02fa3e: 059 stackget 4
    02fa3f: 014 spush spush [0xf] 'special'
    02fa40: 111 spush spush [0xf] 'arfd_native_$100fffa5'
    02fa41: 111 spush [0xf] 'arfd_native_$100fffa5'
    02fa42: 063 psetimm1 fff
    This is located in scraps all over my savegame but it does seems to work, that's a very small part of the noclip (error) glitch, it only pushes the player to location "dummy" (x:0 y:0 z:0 / it isn't defined so pushes 'default') and then sets the native $100fffa5 in a "ready" state.

    I have a question about the save file, i am having trouble getting my own save game from the xbox, every time i put my usb and put the save in and then put it on my compter it just has a folder: xbox 360 with these files inside: 000001 and several others similar. I know that they're encrypted but the program is far to complecated that has been posted in one other post.
