red dead 2 pc mods - where do I even start?

Never modded rdr2. Want something simple like a trainer for photo mode and better lighting, nothing for online. Is there a mod manager or is it all manual installs?

start with the two things almost every mod needs: Script Hook RDR2 and Lenny's Mod Loader. get those working on their own first, launch the game once, then add mods one or two at a time so you know what broke it if something breaks. a trainer like Rampage is a good first mod, it's basically a menu for spawning horses, weather, time etc and it tells you straight away if script hook is working. two rules: back up your game folder before you start, and never go into Online with mods installed. story mode only. and after a game update, expect script hook to break until it gets updated.
