Yeah I get that, I just think its a bit unnecessarily convoluted. If it were up to me, I would make the mechanics as similar as possible to the horse mechanics in Kingdom Come Deliverance. Also, it sometimes doesnt auto disconnect when I dismount, thats my point. Then it leads me having to play around with it by pressing F multiple times or holding it down and moving the mouse around before it finally both dismounts me and disconnects.

I added some of the basic information in the mod description

If you mount the horse without having control you will get control automatically (without using the neck). If you then dismount you will lose control. The neck is only for manual connecting and disconnecting and you can also turn off the auto behavior.
For stopping there is a key to instantly set its desired speed to 0. I think its default E

This is great work. However, Im not a big fan of the dismounting. I understand that you have to press F again on the neck to completely disconnect from the horse, but I think it would be better if it just dismounted completely with the first F press instead, otherwise it can be a bit of a needless hassle to dismount. I also think that the minimum speed should be 1 or 1.5 so that you dont have to play around with trying to get the horse to completely stop and risk it not being perfectly at 0 for a quick dismount, it should just be assumed that anything less means you want to stop. Horses dont really move that slowly in real life anyway.

yes

Do the horses actually have walking animations?

Your horse is dynamic right? If you right click you can drag it around with your player rope?

heyo, cant get the horse to move, first time with the mod and no one has had this issue from what ive seen, running just this mod and its dependancies, i can enter remote control mode, get on and off the horse, i have the speed prompt come up but theres no movement, any help?

Adding - OK, I see how the auto-disconnect should work since I am getting it to work on a server I play on, where I couldn't. My rotate slightly to change what part of the neck you are interacting with helps if for any reason dismounting isn't auto-disconnecting

To Torchwood's question: If you haven;t figure it out, I learned after a lot of fiddling that "interact with the neck" is a bit simplified - while aiming at the neck area of the horse you will see various text prompts come up, depending on exactly where on the neck area the game thinks you are looking. Try using A an D to slightly rotate the horse while looking and you will get different prompts. I haven't been able to get the auto-disconnect to work? So when I see the prompt that mentions leaving channel I press F and that manually disconnects. Took me forever to figure this out. :)

Wow great work Peaceman!! I didn't even know this was possible

You can disconnect yourself by interacting with the neck of the horse. If the horse is too far just make it run towards you, as you should have control over it. Or you can make it run further. Once its too far you will disconnect.
I don't know how you got in that situation, if you get on the horse you should automatically get control and lose it when getting off. If you manually take control first you won't lose it when getting off

Just tried this mod now. I am stuck in position while standing next to the horse. No idea how to disconnect myself from the horse. Was thinking I would dismantle it but what a waste of breeding time. I tried fast travel and now I'm too far to interact with it yet am still unable to move (fixed to one location on the ground) unable to go back to the horse to detach myself from the control channel. I could try unloading and reloading the mod but that would be same as killing it and would need to breed it again.

could add as friends on steam temporarily so that i can send you the file

If you know a different method to send it. Its just a text file.

It was yeah, plus the animation for the crossbow defenders stopped working as well. Haven't really used discord much, where should i send it?

To know more I probably need your log file. You can try to post it on one of the ME discords

Was it working before?

not quite sure what the issue is but the animations seem to not be working and cant access it like a horse anymore. Have tried it with and without other mods but seem to get the same issue. Any thoughts on what might be wrong?

This problem with the horse swimming without water mod should be fixed now

Its supposed to work without water mod. I will look into it. But you can always add the mod WaterCore. You can then lower the water level using chat commands

question. i have your mods installed tested it out works as intended still trying to get the hang of the controls. however for some odd reason at certain lower elevations the horse turns into a boat and starts swimming on the grass. was this mod intended for base world or will i have to play with the water mod?

Same way that you got roped to it. You need to interact with the neck area. You cannot move because the default controls are set the same as your movement keys. You can assign a secondary set of keys for moving or set the animals keys to something else

i'm roped on to the oxen and can't get loose. I can't move either. How do I exit from being roped to the oxen?

Yep, purpleness is gone now. <3 God Bless <3

Have to put in my 2 cents too This is amazing! did not even think was possible I plan to do a short movie to show this off with multiple players riding off to demo this to all the forums I can post to I think this is pretty much as big as Water, The Trader, and now moving ridable animals I feel that many former players but owners of ME will be interested in playing again once they see this. Incredible work as always. I may not be able to code or mod but I can promote ! and while ME is a bit of a niche game Mods like this give it wider appeal and bring back players that have not played in a few years that have not seen what ME can do now. Thanks

Thank you so much for fixing this! It's works perfectly now. I love this mod, it's fantastic!

Problems should be fixed now

I have the purple square/rectangle myself, and water core is loaded.

Thank you for acting fast Peaceman. This mod is incredible.

The problem happens if you don't have the water core mod loaded. I will fix this

I think this mod is broken, I have the same issues as others. Please help us, Peaceman!

I am having the same issue as Kaybee with the purple flat square going through the horse. Have you figured that one out yet?

Hi Peaceman, when I placed the horse in my game it has a big pink flat square going through it and when i click to ride it, my character gets on but when i press forward, nothing happens. Am I doing something wrong?

You could stop modding right this moment and the ME:CE community would still be in your debt for years. I will build altars to peaceman and make sacrifices to him so we continue to be in his favor and that his abundant blessings continue to shower on us for many versions to come!

Whatever you add is sure to be the next "OMG, peace gave us WHAT?!" moment followed by gushing thanks from the community.

If you hit a creative wall anytime, hit me up.. I have a million ideas, lots of time, just no programming skills.

Jousting spear is something I want to add.
We might get more animals in the future. Elephants would be nice, maybe as extension mod

@peaceman, thank you. Your work is amazing and this game wouldn't be what it is without it.

Can we get water buffalo and asian elephants (for Eastern Architecture themed area)?

Can we get yaks and Dromedary (two hump) camels and llamas/alpacas?

For those using the Wild West mod, donkeys and mules.


Will there be barding available anytime soon? Imagine... JOUSTING!!!!

No guide. But its just 4 keys. Not too hard to figure out

Is there a guide for how to controll it?

Don't deconstruct it like me, that kills the horse.

it remains to wait for the fashion for slaves who will dig mines, plow, plant and clean them

You need to craft them in the Animal Breeding Pen

Ok, we got this mod but cannot figure out where we find the horses etc, there are only the odd deers about?

finally!

simply amazing, he does it again :D

Wow. Thank you for this. I am gonna try it out right away.

Excellent work!

Awesome work! can't wait to try this out.

I like that on the horse you did not add a saddle horn to to the model, its historically accurate :)

now... if only someone would make a proper BOW mod rather than crossbows........... just sayin

OMG .... YES YES YES !!!!!!!
