الفداء الأحمر الميت 2 – Comprehensive PC Keyboard Commands List

List Organization

This list is organized alphabetically by command. The first line of each entry provides the command name. The second line provides the PC keyboard key(ق) and/or PC mouse buttons used to execute that command. I have added notes, on the third line, to some of the commands to provide additional information about that specific command.

Some commands which have the same effect are listed more than once because I want to include the search terms by which different players search for the same command. I want to reduce the frustration of trying to find a command when you can’t remember the specific terminology the developer used but you are sure you remember it is on the list someplace!

Please note that this guide does not include the commands for playing the in-game games blackjack, dominoes, five finger fillet, or poker. It does not include the commands for using the in-game portable camera or the special game photo mode. It also does not include commands used in online play.

Errors and Corrections

If you find an error in this PC keyboard/mouse command information let me know and I will correct it, if necessary. Please provide the correct keyboard and/or mouse input required to execute this command correctly in Red Dead Redemption 2.

If you know a PC keyboard/mouse command that I have missed, please let me know and I will consider adding the command to this list. Please provide the keyboard and/or mouse input required to execute the command in this game.

ملحوظة 3: Auto-ride does not work during missions, cut scenes, or when riding with another person.

Fast travel

Initially the only fast travel options available to the player are by stage coach and by train. Both options cost money.

Go to any train station and purchase a ticket from the clerk inside the station for your desired location.

ملحوظة 1: Player must have progressed the game to the point in the story when Arthur can fast travel. The campfire must be in place. يرى “Setup campfire” for how to do this.

Fast travel using the map on the side of Arthur’s wagon at encampments

When following the main story and improving the gang’s encampment the player will have the option to provide a map that enables fast travel to a variety of predetermined locations on the map. This fast travel map is not tied to travel by train or wagon and it is required in order to be able to fast travel using a campfire.

Feed horse

ر

Feed menu – interact with

F1

Find a dropped/lost personal weapon, gear, supplies, or animal pelts

If a player accidentally drops their own weapon when performing any action or the item is lost while riding a horse due to collision, that item can be found by looking for a white marker on the map. The white marker indicates the location of the dropped/lost/switched weapon or item. For a weapon, the marker looks like a pistol. For a pelt, the item looks like a flatten pelt. If the player returns to this marker’s location on the map the weapon/item can be found and picked up.

ملحوظة 1: If dropped in the water the item may be difficult but not impossible to retrieve. You will need to slowly move toward the item and be ready to press the retrieve key “ر” as soon as it appears.

ملحوظة 2: This marker indicates the location of the last equipped weapon only.

ملحوظة 3: If the player drops or loses a “legendary” pelt, don’t panic like I did last night when I was ambushed and killed by a pack of wolves. The pelt can be found at any trapper location. He will already have the pelt in his inventory ready to craft.

Commands M – س

Map zoom

Middle mouse button wheel rolled

Mark location on map

With map open, place cursor on location and press “يدخل” to mark

Mark target (manually)

Target marking can be frustrating for a PC player because the way it works changes at one point in the game without any clearly defined explanation. Target marking is performed automatically until the player completes the entire mission “Pouring Forth Oil” in chapter 2, at which point the player loses the ability to auto-tag multiple targets.

The steps to mark a target or targets manually are:

1. With your weapon in hand, enter Dead Eye mode by pressing either caps lock or middle mouse button. You know you are in Dead Eye mode when the screen gets brighter and everything on screen slows down. The Dead Eye timer has started.

2. Place the gun’s sight cursor on a target. The cursor will turn from white to red.

3. With the red cursor on the target press X which will mark the target. This will be the site where the target will be hit. Pressing X multiple times on the same location will cause several shots to be fired at the same target location. Depending on the weapon being used and the hit location on the body, multiple hits are not normally necessary to kill.

ملحوظة 1: Player can only mark as many targets as there are rounds in the current gun.

4. After marking all targets, اضغط على زر الماوس الأيسر. One shot will be automatically fired at each marked target in the order in which the targets were tagged.

ملحوظة 1: During Dead Eye if the player does not mark any targets, but does press the left mouse button, a single round will be fired.

Melee

Melee can be frustrating for a new PC player if they don’t understand how melee works in this game. Use only the keyboard when fist fighting. Press and hold the block key (ر) when your opponent is swinging to block his attack. Tap the punch key (و) several times to strike your opponent. Tap the grab key (ه) to grab your opponent and if his health is low enough you get the option to tap the punch key (و) and deliver some extra hits to the fool. Remember stay off the mouse.
