📋 About This Mod
WELCOME TO
INTRODUCTION
A little mod that lets players that don't want to proceed past a certain chapter purchase normally unlocked horses without ruining the immersion by using a trainer to spawn them in.
WHAT YOU'LL FIND IN THIS MODThis mod will make all stable horses available for purchase after "Exit Pursued by a Bruised Ego" mission (AKA as soon as you get introduced to the stables).
This doesn't mean all horses will be available in every stable. Horses will be available in their respective stable as usual, this mod only removes the chapters lock!

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. After you've successfully set everything up, download the mod file, extract it and simply put the "Shop Horses Unlocker" folder inside the "lml" folder.

CONFLICTS
This mod changes lines inside catalog_sp, therefore, it will conflict with every other mod that uses it.
Don't ask me to make merges as this is an insignificant mod and adds so little to the game I don't feel like putting actual effort into it.
