Equine Improvements

For a while now, I've thought that the texture quality of most of the horses in this game looks awful, when compared to the quality of the player assets. The fur looks very undefined, and the models are covered in this horrible, blocky sheen. This mod attempts to fix that, by adding rough, high resolution fur detailing over the horses' normal, ambient occlusion, and roughness texture maps. This means that all of these changes should apply to every horse and mule in the game, online or not! On top of that, horses now also have modeled whiskers and higher quality eyelashes, making their faces look a lot more realistic.

I've also included a couple optional files. One of them greatly minimizes the shine effect of horse coats, by increasing the PBR roughness, and the other restores the unused bay horse textures, which are leftover assets from Rockstar's remake of RDR1's Cleveland Bay, a horse that was used sometime during RDR2's development. More information down below.

The textures are now way more detailed, with increased resolution and detailing. I have also decided to decrease the levels on the ambient occlusion maps, for a stronger shading effect.

Much better.

For the people who dislike how shiny horse fur is in vanilla, this file greatly reduces it, by increasing the levels on the roughness texture map.

For the people who aren't fans of the new modeled hair strands around the snout and eyes, this optional completely removes them, and restores the vanilla eyelashes.

To facilitate the changes of coat colors throughout the horse breeds, Rockstar made diffuse textures that can be tinted to use several different colors. These textures are lower quality in nature when compared to other diffuse maps, having lots of compression artifacts and a resolution of 1024x1024. However, sitting unused in the game's files are untinted diffuse maps with a resolution of 2048x2048, belonging to a bay-colored horse that can be seen in some beta screenshots of the game, and that also has an uncanny resemblance to RDR1's Cleveland Bay.

I thought those textures looked great, so I've decided to restore them
