F.I.R.E. – Complete Fire and Flames Overhaul V2.3

F.I.R.E. is a mod aimed to the complete overhaul of the fire mechanics of Red Dead Redemption 2.
The vanilla fire was always too little and extinguished too fast, but now it lasts hours if given the chance with blazing hot flames high as houses.

In the vanilla version of Red Dead Redemption 2, fire often feels like a scripted after-thought: it’s small, it extinguishes too fast, and it lacks the destructive power you’d expect in the wild west.

F.I.R.E. (Fire Intensity & Realism Enhanced) changes everything. By meticulously re-tuning the particle logic, this mod ensures that fire is no longer just a visual effect, but a persistent force of nature.

Key Features:
Massive Persistence: No more “self-extinguishing” campfires or petrol trails. If there is fuel to burn, the fire will keep raging. Burn durations have been boosted from the standard 60 seconds to extended periods, allowing for realistic forest fires and long-lasting destruction.
Blazing Visuals: Fire effects have been scaled up. Experience high-reaching flames that can tower over houses, creating a terrifying atmosphere during gunfights or arson runs.
Improved Spread Physics: The radial spread of fire is now more aggressive, making every molotov a high-stakes gamble.
True-to-Life Heat: Enhanced heat haze and particle density for a more visceral, “hotter” look.

ENORMOUS THANKS TO VAXISTAA FOR THE UNHASHED FILES, THERE ARE SOOOOO MANY FEWER BUGS NOW
