How to join Western Life
Install RedM
Download RedM from the official Cfx.re website and complete the first launch.
Join our Discord
Connect Discord, read the community rules and keep your server membership active.

FIELD MANUAL
Quick troubleshooting
RedM does not open
Restart Steam/Rockstar Launcher, then run RedM as a normal user. Confirm RDR2 launches once on its own.
Stuck on loading screen
Close capture overlays, restart RedM and clear only the RedM cache—not your game files.
Discord role missing
Sign out of the website, rejoin Discord if needed, then connect again to refresh your roles.
Voice does not work
Check the selected Windows input device and ensure microphone permissions are enabled for RedM.
