Does Undead Nightmare II - Origins replace the whole game?

[Consuela]

Or does it give you the options to play either the original campaign, or the mod. Like, are there three menu options in the main menu, one for the campaign, one for the mod, and one for online? I don't want to replace the main campaign. I want both options to be seperate.

It is a total replacement mod for Story Mode.
It's meant to be played after you beat the game.

For better immersion and more of an entire game over-haul, you are also meant to install/activate many other mods along side the UN2-Origins mod.

It's all outlined here in detail:

Ok, thanks for the info. Ah, man.... I guess I'll go enjoy the original game first. ....Rats... sigh... Or create two copies of the game. Good idea.

If you create two copies of the game, yes that can work.
However you would need to then backup or rename the saved game files for one when switching to the other. As they will both read/write to the same folder regarding saved game progress files and the graphics settings config file.

Overall, yes it is do-able that way.

I got it working. I am at the very start of the game, at the camp. Do you think the game will be playable as such? I made a backup of the game folder and my save files. I can switch back to both the originals if needed.

I think I answered my own question. Trying to run the z's over with the carriage alert's the law and the mission fails, the one where I am taking the girls out on the town after speaking with uncle. So, good. Back to the vanilla game.

Also, when you switch to the game folder that has the mods within it...
you will want to add this onto the Launch Options for RDR2 in Steam.

But then remove that line when playing RDR2 Story or Online normally.
