📋 About This Mod

WELCOME TO

INTRODUCTION

One day I asked myself: "what if I make Fantasy horses?" That sounds like a good idea, I thought.

So here I am with a rather unique mod, coming with the strangest and most magical horses you'll ever find on Nexus.

WHAT YOU'LL FIND IN THIS MOD

A lot of unique horses, each coming with a unique model, a custom coat and custom eyes!

Celastrina and Lanidrac Variants in Miscellaneous.

────────────────

HOW TO INSTALL

To make this mod work, you'll need these tools:

Script Hook

Lenny's Mod Loader

Follow instructions on how to install each of these carefully. If you don't have it already, create a new folder inside "lml" and name it "stream". After you've successfully set everything up, download a file from this mod and follow the instructions inside the text file.

Notes

These horses and textures are replacers, they are not additions.

All horses and textures from this mod will replace either Arabian White or Mustang Tiger Striped Bay by default.

If you want to change the replaced horse, change the name of the .ymt file to match the horse you want it to replace, like so:

"a_c_horse_arabian_white" = "a_c_horse_andalusian_perlino".

You can get a list with all horse file names here

────────────────

CONFLICTS

Horse textures from other mods may conflict with these. There is nothing that can be done to solve this.

Since all custom textures replace the same two textures for each Fantasy Horse, you can't have more than two Fantasy Horses at a time.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • If you're using a mod manager, preview the textures in-game to see if you like the fantasy look before committing.
  • Check if you have other horse mods installed—this might override or be overridden, so adjust load order accordingly.
  • Since it's a texture/model mod, make sure your game is updated to the latest version to avoid compatibility issues.
