Hello, I know the game is kinda old and this method might also be old, but I recently (2 weeks ago) found every file back and even did it myself again. I thought there should still be some people interested in Red Dead Redemption, and therefor I'm creating this tutorial. For as far as I know, the only two versions of Red Dead Redemption this works for are the original version and the Undead Nightmare version of Red Dead. You can to do it with the Game of the Year edition which quite recently came out, but I can't confirm that it works for that nor is the mod inteded for that version. What these mod do is allow Single-player cheats to be used in Multiplayer, and therefor give you the ability to have god mode, spawn horses, give yourself weapons and infinite horse stamina and ammo. I am not responsible if you get banned. There's always a chance of being banned for modding.
What you want to do first, is an Red Dead Redemption ISO for your own console region and the desired version you want, Red Dead Redemption or Undead Nightmare. Make sure everything is legit and stealth by checking it with abgx360. Basically get an ISO which would be just fine to burn. Other tutorials will help you where needed.
After you have an ISO, you need to download a few things, the first is a program called "Xbox Backup Creator" which is downloadable here. Secondly, you need some game-specific files. To download them, simply click the boxart to download the files for the game you currently have and want to modify:
When you've downloaded those files, you need to open Xbox Backup Creator. You might get a error message telling you that something hasn't loaded correctly, but that doesn't matter because you will only be using it to edit the ISO data. When it's opened up, click Image Tools and then click Image Browser. Using the Image Browser, click File and in the menu, click Open Image File, and select your ISO. It might take some time to load the ISO, just be patient. Right-click "rdr2_layer0.rpf" and select Extract, and extract it to your desktop or any other desired location.
After rdr2_layer0.rpf is extracted to your desktop, extract the .RAR file you downloaded ("original red dead redemption patch.rar" or "undead nightmare mods.rar") to the same location you extracted rdr2_layer0.rpf to. After that, open up ppf-o-matic3.exe and when it's opened up, click the floppy icon next to "ISO File". In the "Open CD-Image..." dialog, select the rdr2_layer0.rpf file you extracted earlier. When you've selected the file, click the floppy icon next to "Patch" and select the "patch.ppf" file provided in the .RAR. When having done all that, click the Apply button and wait for the program to apply the mod.
When you've patched (a.k.a. modded) the rdr2_layer0.rpf, insert it into the ISO by opening up the Image Browser and right-clicking "rdr2_layer0.rpf" and selecting Replace. Replace the rdr2_layer0.rpf with the patched (a.k.a. modded) rar_layer0.rpf and click File > Close Image to finalize the image. After that, burn it using ImgBurn (find the tutorial on google or on Se7enSins) and hotswap it in order to play it or install it to your hard drive (find the tutorial on google or on Se7enSins).
When completely done with modding and installing it to the Xbox 360 by using hotswap or play the game by using hotswap, you should end up with the following result:
You might have the problem that you don't have any cheats, or you have few cheats. This is where the "new" stuff comes in. I have provided my "RDR2OPTIONS.SAV" file so it can be downloaded here, and it comes with every single cheat unlocked. Even the ones that aren't supposed to be in the Xbox 360 version, and some developer's cheats. You have to add them to your storage device with your own Profile ID in order to use them. Find yourself a good Modio tutorial and you'll be ready to use all cheats. Below is a list of the cheats and their effects:
All other cheats have no effect on multiplayer and should not be used as they might glitch or cause the game to freeze.
