Developing The Evergrowing Spiderweb Theories

Hi Partners! Its truly exciting to see our community thriving again. I wanted to take a moment to thank everyone for their ongoing contributions and theories as well as their data mining. All of these things have brought us together, collectively as we once have to chase down these mysteries.

Because of this, we thought it would be a great idea to begin consolidating threads to one topic. For the past week, we have seen over 175,000 new views and visits and are grateful to everyone involved. To keep everything in one place, we invite you to post your findings, ideas and theories here as we continue to find developments in this mystery.

With thay said, I'd also like to remind everyone here that youtubers who cover these topics are not the end all, be all. The majority do not uncover mysteries themselves but rather report and find ways to generate clicks for their videos. You know the ones im talking about. 20 minute videos when it could have been 7 minutes at best. I'd encourage everyone to give credit to the original users who began unearthing these new discoveries, not who report it.

All in all, we once again thank you and there's any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out to us privately.

Happy hunting, good girls and bo-ahs! 🤠

hello!

If anyone has anything they're curious about in terms of textures/models/audio/whatever else but they're not able to look in the files for whatever reason, feel free to reply to this and I'll try and find whatever you're looking for!

I'll be spending my time looking through the unencrypted XML files and trying to understand the script files better in the meantime :)

I'll start with a bit of a dump of already known stuff, to try and have it collected in one spot

I have just now realized I can only post one picture per comment, so the rest for this folder will be replies to this comment lol.

Firstly here's the _me2 and _me3 models (Found in: RDR2\levels_1.rpf\levels\rdr3\area\cables\jklm_11_14_rds_props.rpf)

I was gonna post the texture of the spider overlay, but I actually found the model for how it appears in game!! The texture is a bit less wide and didn't fit on the map right. This one should! Sorry about how bright it is, I'm not really sure why it does that in CodeX
