📋 About This Mod
Adds horses from Dragon Age: Inquisition as new creatures.
I have always loved horses, and I was surprised to see their absence in Dragon Age: Origins, while the elves have their own mounts in the form of Hallas. To tell you the truth, I started creating this mod about a year ago, but then I lacked both skills and information, so I had to put the creation of the mod on hold. I recently returned to this unfinished project, and today I want to share the result with you!
So, this mod adds the horses from Dragon Age: Inquisition as new creatures.
FEATURES-
[]9 colors of horses.
[]Horse models with and without saddle.
[]LOD2 and LOD3 (distance models) with optimized textures.
[]Dead horse as placeable object and prop model for your levels.
[]Custom horse sounds converted from DAI.
[]Custom animations (modified DAO deer animations).
[]Custom skeleton (modified DAO halla skeleton).
[]Several riders and a new animation for them.
[]Horses added to Origins and Awakening areas using scripts. Find them all!
INSTALLATION
-
[]Download the main archive, unpack it with the 7-zip archiver.
[]Put the unpacked Horses of Ferelden folder into your "override" folder (.... Documents\Bioware\Dragon Age\packages\core\).
[]Done!
Needs a new game!
UNINSTALLATION
To uninstall the mod, simply delete the Horses of Ferelden folder from your override folder. You can also delete parts of the mod.
For example, if you don't like the position of the riders in the saddle, you can delete them completely. To do this, delete the Horse Raiders folder from the UTCs folder (...\override\Horses of Ferelden\).
The mod adds horses to both the original campaign and Awakening. If you do not want to see horses in Awakening, for example, delete the Awakening folder from the Scripts folder ( ...\override\Horses of Ferelden\).
COMPATIBILITY
This mod is maximally compatible with all other mods, as the horses are added to the areas using scripts, i.e. no original files have been modified. However, there may be conflicts with those mods that add new objects or creatures to the areas. And horses can get "stuck" in new objects. Such mods include, for example, Improved Atmosphere.
