📋 About This Mod
Description
After releasing my OpenMW patch for Pegas Horse Ranch (HERE), a patch for the riding in Abot's Guars mod was requested. Here it is.
Installation
Load this esp after the original esp file.
Bugs
The same caveats as my Pegas Horse Ranch patch: Mounted combat will result in you hitting your mount and static objects can be passed through.
The guar can also become very jittery when moving up or down slopes, but moving to a flat surface will fix this.
A small patch for Abot's Guars that fixes clipping through terrain in OpenMW. For players using Abot's Guars with OpenMW who encounter terrain clipping issues. Stands out as a targeted fix with modest community support (104 endorsements).
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Directly addresses a specific annoyance for OpenMW users
- Lightweight patch that does one job well
- Decent community support with 104 endorsements
⚠️ Cons
- Only works with Abot's Guars – useless if you don't have that mod
- Last updated in 2020 – might not be tested with newer OpenMW versions
- No detailed instructions or compatibility notes from the author
For OpenMW players who use Abot's Guars and have noticed their guars sinking into the ground. If you're not using Abot's Guars or don't play OpenMW, this patch is irrelevant. Skip if you're on the original Morrowind engine – this is OpenMW-only.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have Abot's Guars installed first, then drop this patch into your OpenMW data files folder.
- If you're using a mod manager, load this patch after Abot's Guars to ensure it takes effect.
- Test in-game by fast-traveling to a guar location – they should no longer sink into the terrain.
