📋 About This Mod
Dhu's Roach.
The mod is about Horse Love!
Welcome to the page, visitor. I brought you my old Roach mods, where i offered lots of coats for our beloved horse from Witcher 3.
Now i am on Next Gen, so it's time to bring my mods with me. I was against updating to it, but let's leave that behind and move to the next information.
What happens in this mod, is probably obvious, though, let me talk about it.
When i started modding, horses wasn't my first ideas for this game, but always loved them alongside with wolves and now i'm mainly working on them, but planning to bring many other mods with different creatures, and human beings.
How to install the mod?
Drag dlcdhusroach into your DLC folder. And modDhusRoach into your Mods folder. These two stands for the Wolven Kit project, that made it possible to make Roach unique, so her coat changes won't affect any in-game horses. And now, beside that two file, there's modDhusX, drag it to your Mods folder, as well. It holds the texture.
Requesting is allowed? Yes. But, not free.
Not for free, as i said. If you want your horse in real life to be in the game, i'm willing to make it. Or if you see one online that you like, and wants to ride it, let me know. Say the price, or donate to my Paypal, and we make a deal.
I'm a TEXTURE modder. I make new entities, and knowing this and that, but not making script mods, for example. Do not bother me with those.
What does "non-mirrored" means?
The horse itself has a mirrored body. It means, left and right side has the same texture. For example, if i draw a dot on the left side, it will appear on the right side as well, no matter what i do. But that is no longer the case, as Ard Carraigh helped me a while back to get rid of this issue. So now, there's a left and right, and no mirrored textures! Those horses, that have the base colours, no patterns, will have the same texture on both side. Unless you want a single piece of hair look different-... joking. You don't.
Would you like to support my work? You can, through Paypal. I am not begging for you to donate, but i leave the link here, so you can decide if you want to, or not. If you do, i'm grateful. If not, still wishing you a good day.
