Community Content Exhibit Vol. 4
Thu, 25 August 2022
Attention Officers
Welcome to the 4th in our series of monthly newsletters dedicated entirely to community creations and contributions to Ready or Not; this week, we’ll focus on popular, well-made, and unique mods to augment your gameplay!
Community Spotlight – Mods of the Month
1.) Not So Convenient
by TheLoafLord
For the first mod of this bundle, we’ve got a map that perfectly caters to a consistent community request. Small maps! The convenience store offers incredibly tight corners and the low number of possible hiding places mean that every single nook and cranny could hide one of the map's small handful of suspects.
As an added bonus, the map comes in Winter, Day, and Night variants to increase playability!

2.) Forest House
by RareKiwi
Once again featuring RareKiwi we keep the theme of compact maps, with Forest House. A step up in size from the previous entry, the map offers a suspect-packed, claustrophobic, kill house where every engagement has to be undertaken carefully to ensure that you don’t get shot at from another hidden threat.

3.) Sky Tower Remaster
by aerostatic
Keeping the incidental tradition of having a Swat 4 map recreation in these showcases, we have a recreation of a popular modded map. The stark, clean halls of the skyscraper provide a sharp contrast to the last two maps, replacing drug addled crooks with a group of well trained, armed, and equipped raiders.

Closing
Going forward, we can’t wait to see what else the community brings to the table as we update the game and give modders more functionality to play with and improve their own works.

Vol. 38 Ready Or Not Development Update
Thu, 1 September 2022
Attention Officers,
Welcome to our 38th edition of our biweekly newsletter! Today we will be showing a first look into one of our future levels, Agency! Vol. 34 Development update introduced the prime suspect of this level, George Brixley, owner and main agent of Brixley Talent Time.
The Row
The Row is one of the poorest areas in Los Suenos and is often avoided by the general public. Months of trash accumulates on the curbs, clothes hang from windows waiting to be stained with the smell of smoke, and makeshift tents of the homeless litter the sidewalks. Meanwhile, Brixley Talent Time looms right in the middle of it.
Above: The choking smog leaves inhabitants wondering what they’re exactly “worthy” of.
Above: Life finds a way even in the harshest environments.
Above: You can’t walk the streets of the Row without seeing Police cars posted at every alley.
Brixley’s Playground
Brixley Talent Time is a filthy place, disgustingly decorated with childrens toys, clothing, and photographs. Used as a front for talent scouting, this place is a breeding ground for sexual assault, pornography, and financial abuse.
Above: It’s highly unlikely Brixley invested in a washer and dryer - or a janitor.
Approach with caution, as Brixley may not be acting alone in his repulsive schemes. He has a lot to lose and a prison cell for life if captured. That man has a face you could see in your nightmares, a challenge for even a mother to love.
Above: I don’t envy the investigator that has to catalog all those photos.
Above: The locks on these bathroom doors wouldn't make anyone feel safer.
Conclusion
This concludes our 38th biweekly briefing, showing a first look into one of our upcoming levels, Agency. Be sure to tune in next time for more development news!

Vol. 40 Ready Or Not Development Update
Thu, 29 September 2022
Attention Officers,
Welcome to our 40th edition of our biweekly newsletter! This week we’ll be giving our community a break from maps and suspects, we instead take a look at the new firearms to be added to the departments armory coming in the next update.
Armory Expansion
The first new weapon is the SPC, an addition to the games roster of SMGs whose claim to fame is its prodigious rate of fire of up to 1,100 rounds per minute. Any officers that choose to bring the SPC out into the field will have to practice careful trigger discipline and target acquisition if they want their ammunition to last throughout the entire engagement.
Next comes the M11 Compact, it stands alongside the P92X and G19 as another long time workhorse of multiple law enforcement agencies. Chambered in the ever-reliable 9mm, the clean lines of the M11 will fit in among the pre-existing roster of wonder 9s.
An upgrade to a classic, next we have the MK18 whose brand new model will be replacing the legacy M4A1 model so that we can maintain a consistent look and feel for all of our weapons going forward.
Lastly we have a weapon that’s been heavily requested, the MP7. Being the first firearm in the PDW category, the MP7 brings a unique combination of capabilities between its’ armor piercing capability afforded by its 4.6mm round and high rate of fire that every entry team would love to have at their side.
Conclusion
This concludes our 40th biweekly briefing. Be sure to tune in next time for more development news (there are many more to come)!

Vol. 41 Ready Or Not Supporter Development Update - Mod.io Integration
Thu, 13 October 2022
Attention Officers,
Welcome to the 41st edition of our biweekly newsletter! This newsletter will be showing off something quite exciting!
To start off, we’d like to announce the integration of the mod.io
platform into Ready or Not. Starting October 18th you’ll be able to download and remove mods at the click of a button!
This may come as a surprise to many members of the community, as we have said that we would bring Steam Workshop functionality in the past. However, given how under-performing the system is, we’ve decided to instead adopt mod.io. Just like the Nexus Mods and Steam Workshop users will not be limited in what they can upload to the mod.io page, with the obvious exceptions being obscene or unsuitable content.
The adoption of mod.io will allow direct integration with Ready or Not, giving users the ability to search through and download mods from inside the game itself, instead of having to open up the Steam Workshop or download via a third-party website. It will also offer the most flexibility going forward as we make updates to how we support modders and as Mod.io continues to update and add more functionality to their platform!
We’ve worked with both Modders and the Ready or Mod Discord team to ensure that the concerns of the modding community are met, currently we are testing the implementation of Mod.io with just map mods!
As we update both the game and our support with mod.io, we will extend compatibility to all of the weapon and skin replacers that the community has come to enjoy!
At the moment you can download skin, weapon, and attachment replacer mods via mod.io, however they need to be extracted from their folder in [C:\Users\Public\mod.io\3791\mods] to [steamapps\common\Ready Or Not\ReadyOrNot\Content\Paks]

This concludes our 41st biweekly briefing. Be sure to tune in next time for more development news (there are many more to come)!

Vol. 42 Ready Or Not - Development Update
Thu, 27 October 2022
Attention Officers,
Welcome to our 42nd edition of our biweekly newsletter! This week we will introduce the prime suspect in one of our upcoming levels Ridgeline, Gerard Scott. We will learn more about this recluse and his modes of destruction. However before we start, we have a few words from the development team:
“We know players are eagerly awaiting improvements to the AI; as some users are aware we have been showing off a few hints through other channels, however when we are ready we will release a devlog showing these updates in detail. We are currently working on improving overall AI appearance when moving and shooting, changing how AI perceive and engage with the player with variables for most suspect actions to give modders the flexibility they need.
Animations for weapon raising, aiming, and detection are being adjusted as well, leading to AI being required to slow down and aim directly at the player to be more lethal with their shot placement. We are excited to showcase these changes and many more exciting ones shortly before the Adam update is dropped.”
- VOID Interactive
Now we happily return to your regularly scheduled Newsletter.
A Recluse Hidden in the Hills
Deep in the hills of Northern Los Suenos lies a cabin occupied by Gerard Scott, a 55-year-old ex-USIA (United States Intelligence Agency) analyst. Gerard was performing illegal activities as an agent, using his power and accessibility to spy on Law Enforcement Agencies within Los Suenos.
Above: This man is in desperate need of a paper shredder, that’s for sure.
Since his release, Gerard has developed a delusional obsession with the police force and focused his efforts on destroying it. He is currently wanted for the murder of five police officers, killed trying to extinguish a vehicle Gerard purposefully set on fire outside the East Makade Police Department.
Above: A quick peek inside the mind of madness.
Coated Revenge
Another obsession of Gerard’s is the production of Ricin, a deadly compound if swallowed or breathed in. Outside of his cabin lies rows of cultivated castor plants stripped of their beans, the main ingredient needed for this bioweapon. The castor beans are cooked and mashed, the waste byproduct being Ricin. Dried bean paste and jars of white powder litter the cabin.
Above: The remains of Gerard’s ricin experiments, wonder how bad the stench is.
To carry out his plan of mailing coated packages and letter mail to Police Departments across Los Suenos, Gerard invented a homemade device that aerosolized Ricin. To test its effectiveness, Gerard captured small animals from the ridge and carried out experiments, documenting how each animal suffered. He is very close to perfecting his invention.
Above: Complicated but extremely effective.
Above: Gerard is definitely not an animal person, not much of a people person either.
Conclusion
This concludes our 42nd biweekly briefing where we introduced a new character in one of our upcoming levels, Ridgeline. Be sure to tune in next time for more development news!
