Upscaled Horses
Upscales Most Horse Textures (AB, NM, MA) 2-4x to a base resolution of 1024x1024
Most textures were 256x256 and 512x512, Now all textures are at least 1k, with several 2k textures too.
The normal and material maps have also been upscaled 2x for most textures so it should look higher quality than it actually is.
That being said, It is not an insanely obvious difference, but should definitely improve the look of horses when you aren't examining them very closely.
Feel free to use these textures for the bases of other mods, just credit me in your description pls
If you have Lenny's mod manager I'd recommend launching it and turning on "Overwrite" for all installed mods, load order shouldn't matter.
This mod is NOT compatible with any other custom horse texture mods, if you have a horse mod you want to keep, load it after this mod, it might be lower quality though.
If you like the mod please endorse it! Also feel encouraged to submit images to the mod page!

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 390 endorsements and 24k downloads—clearly a go-to for horse texture upgrades
- Simple, focused purpose: just upscales horse textures, so you know exactly what you're getting
- Last updated May 2024, so it's still fresh and likely compatible with current game versions
⚠️ Cons
- Only covers horses—if you're looking for broader texture overhauls, this won't touch anything else
- Upscaling to 1024x1024 might not be enough for ultra-high-res setups or 4K gaming
- Potential conflicts with other horse texture mods—make sure to check load order if you use multiple
For players who want sharper, cleaner horse textures without overhauling the whole game. If you're a texture enthusiast who notices blurry horse models, this is a quick win. Skip if you're after gameplay changes or a full visual overhaul—this is purely cosmetic.

- If you're on a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, just download and install—it's a simple texture replacer, no extra steps.
- Check your load order if you have other horse texture mods; put this one after them to ensure it takes priority.
- Since it's just textures, you can safely remove it anytime without breaking saves.
