Released Mods

Note that this is NOT an exhaustive list. Here you will find compiled many of the major or important Raven Shield mods; however there have been too many released to fully list here.

## Prerequisite

Note that since Ubisoft shut down the official online service for Raven Shield, and since they locked out custom modifications in patch 1.6, unofficial methods are required for playing with mods or connecting to online servers. Before installing most of these mods, you will need to patch your game with the unofficial OpenRVS patch. Choose one of the two options below:

* **OpenRVS manual install** - *author: Twi* - Just drop these files in your game's system folder. **Download:** http://rvsgaming.org/Downloads/
* **Automated installer** - *installer created by AllR6* - This automated installer includes the needed OpenRVS patch by Twi, as well as some additional sound files to enhance your gameplay experience on AllR6 multiplayer servers. **Download:** http://www.moddb.com/games/tom-clancys-rainbow-six-3-raven-shield/downloads/r63onlinemultiplayerpatch

## Expansion-Style Singleplayer Mods

These mods install using the same system as the official Ubisoft expansions Athena Sword and Iron Wrath; the associated files and folders are placed in the Ravenshield > Mods folder. To use the mod, you go to the Options menu, choose Custom Game, and activate the mod of choice. This system means that these mods will not interfere with online gaming or cause any modifications to the game's default files.

* **Iron Wrath manual installation** - *author: Ubisoft* - This is the FREE official expansion for the game, released by Ubisoft. The official installer can be difficult to run on modern systems, so try this manual installation - just drop the folder and file in your Ravenshield > Mods folder. **Download:** https://www.moddb.com/games/tom-clancys-rainbow-six-3-raven-shield/downloads/rainbow-six-3-iron-wrath-manual-installation
* **Supply Drops** - *author: Twi* - A mod focusing on a large list of new weapons, scopes, sights, and gear. All new guns have 3D iron sights and customizable paint jobs. In addition to this, the Supply Drops mod allows you to use the new items in Athena Sword and Iron Wrath maps (if you have them installed), as well as vanilla maps and any other singleplayer mod you may have. Updated with new items infrequently. **Download:** https://www.moddb.com/mods/supply-drops-new-gear-for-rainbow6-3
* **Rainbow 6: Zombies** - *author: Twi* - This mod adds wave-based survival gameplay against mindless zombie foes. Use the classic R6 loadout selection to choose your weapons, then face increasingly-difficult odds. The mod adds in-game perks to help you, such as ammo refills, speed boosters, AI backup, and more. **Download:** https://www.moddb.com/mods/rainbow-six-zombies
* **Ordnance Project** - *author: Vadim and the Unfinished Games team* - The original large-scale weapons mod, Ordnance Project adds many new guns to the game. The weapons are of similar feel and quality to the vanilla guns. The mod also allows the use of 3D iron sights for every weapon. Note that the weapon models, especially of the vanilla guns, are not always suited for use with iron sights. In addition, the mod features a weapon-lowering mechanic when near a wall; some players may find this inhibiting. **Download:** https://www.moddb.com/mods/ordnance-project
* **Mercenary 2***- author: Twi* - This mod adds weapon purchasing mechanics to the game. Receive bounties on your kills and use them in the Escape menu to buy new guns or accessories*.* Note that the quality of the custom weapons in the game varies wildly*.* **Download:**http://www.mediafire.com/file/fducqgddc0d1gpc/Mercenary+2\_FIXED+CAMPAIGN.zip
