Westerado Mod

Author of the Westerado Mod: mlie

Westerado Mod is a large vanilla-extension that brings a full western frontier theme to RimWorld, adding mid-game weapons, apparel, factions, systems, and content without removing vanilla mechanics.

  • 18+ apparel sets: Hats, ponchos, coats, and frontier clothing.
  • 11+ hairstyles: Western-inspired looks.
  • 10+ new buildings: Including poker tables and palisades.
  • 8 new animals: Bison, coyotes, gila monsters, and more.
  • 2 new factions: Outlaws and First Nation tribes.
  • Horned animal system: Horns, antlers, and tusks drop as usable resources.
  • Brewing and distilling system: Produce Ratherwoman’s Rye Whisky and Robbaz’ Moonshine.
  • Weapon art tales: Western-themed descriptions for added immersion.

  • Simple Ivory support: Replaces boar tusks with Westerado tusks when the mod is loaded.
  • Updated butchering logic: Adjusted to account for Simple Ivory.

  • Recommended mods: Works especially well with Westerado Wilderness Mod and Westerado The Gun Jesus Revelations Mod.
  • If errors occur, test with only Westerado Mod and its requirements enabled, then add other mods gradually.
  • Always include your log using the Log Uploader when reporting issues.
  • Use the Discord error-reporting channel for best support. Avoid discussion threads, as the author may not be notified.
