About this mod

Starting from a clean Chapter 2, ending with unique Marston clothing, a Fox Trotter and Gambler/Herbalist complete!

Permissions and credits
Here is my collection of Chapter 2 Saves, the aim is not to complete as much as possible. The aim is simply to remove the parts of the game I find tedious doing on new playthroughs whilst leaving a vast amount to explore and complete.

I did not die at all during the process of making these saves, for those OCD driven you can confirm this by looking at the the Character Stats in the Trainer Menu, I also played Arthur honorably, spared all lives and have not killed or robbed or been the slightest bit naughty. 

Each Version carries over from the previous Version, i.e. Version 5 has
all the features of Versions 1-4

These saves were made using the Ultimate Edition of RDR2

Please note that two users with the Standard Edition of the game have reported issues with Dynamite and the Varmint Rifle. This is easily rectified by using Rampage Trainer to lock/unlock the items again. If you do experience related issues, my best guess is that there is a compatibility issue caused by Standard vs Special/Ultimate editions of the game. If this is the case, this is not due to an error on my end, but Rockstar's.

I know that a late Chapter 2 Save is not entirely desirable however this save file is more for those who want to free roam in Chapter 2 like you usually would in the Epilogue whilst still being able to interact with the gang.
As this version was never intended for download I have customized my weapons to my liking, though nothing fancy. 
I have not robbed the Homestead with Javier however I did "Go Hunting" with Charles. Chance Encounters stays at 0/25!
Other than anything listed in all other versions of my save games, the rest is left for you to explore!

Notes:

The Legend of the East
outfit is not unlocked, however many components are available in the wardrobe. If you want it unlocked as an outfit and don't want to complete challenges then I recommend this mod: https://www.nexusmods.com/reddeadredemption2/mods/1067 (Auto Challenges)

I have not explored any of the map in any versions so you can freely and freshly explore everything
(With the exception of collecting Recipe Pamphlets for Herbalist Challenges in V5)

Although you have the "Off-Hand Holster" that Micah gives you already equipped in Version 2 and onwards, I have play tested this mission and it does not cause any issues whatsoever.

Please note that using "John's Holster" may result in the infamous knife glitch that floats on the player's lower back, considering how long this issue has been present in the game, I doubt we will see a fix anytime soon. This is not caused by these saves or any fault on my part, it exists in the vanilla game.
In my experience, sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn't.

During the creation of Version 4, I accidentally teleported to the Barber in Blackwater, got spotted and had a bounty of 5 dollars? I teleported out of there before any drama happened, If you worried Arthur was a naughty boy, He wasn't, wrong place at the wrong time. Hence the "Bounty - 500" stat displayed when using Rampage Trainer.

Last time I checked, the "Ranters and Ravers" in Progress had been progressed, I believe this is due to hearing "GAVIN!" being yelled whilst on 2/3 5 Card tricks for the Gambler challenge. I was not about to reload and do that again. Mickey in Valentine could also have progressed it further as I needed to pass him to enter the FFF Table in Valentine. NOBODY has been spoken to however.
