Horse Overhaul Mod 1.03.23532

Looking for the best ambient horse mod out there? This might just be the mod for you!

Features
-I've added a hundred ambient horses (most of which have custom textures) that will be ridden in towns, missions, be seen in pastures, and spawn in the wild so you don't get tired of seeing the same horses over and over again, I wanted to make them unique but still blend in with the environment well.

- I added around fifteen draft horses of various breeds including Mules, Friesians with a model by bolju, Percherons and more.

- Gave all stable and gang horses unique coats, although you can easily use others in their place, and I recommend doing so if you end up wanting to use a horse from a different mod as your own.

- The stat cards will simply say "Horse" instead of displaying incorrect breed and coat color information.

- Most NPC horses will now be gelded, while wild and some special horses will remain stallions. This is all optional and not included in the lightweight version

- I have worked hard to try and make this mod as bug free of an experience as possible, and will continue to fix any bugs that get reported within reason.

- Foals now spawn in the world in pastures and in the wild; rarely. You also won't see non-wild horses in the wild and there are special wild variants that look thinner and have unkempt manes, although these parts of the mod are completely optional.

- A few of the horses in the mod will have heterochromia.

- Removed the shine effect applied to horses, if for some reason you prefer the shine delete the "ShineFix" folder. Big thanks to KristianD3 for making this part of the mod, go check out some of the mods made by them.

- I have bigger plans for the future of this mod, so as always: stay tuned

How To Install
- For all of the files in this mod, excluding the Individual Files (see the file description for more details), simply find the folder that has an install.xml inside of it and drop that folder along with all of its contents into your "LML" folder and the mod should be installed.

Conflicts
- There are a handful of horse mods that edit the base game Vanilla horse textures, some of which are utilized by this mod. This might result in some horses looking a little different than how they were intended to, but may also be completely fine in most cases.

- The main version of this mod edits ambientpedmodelsets in order to spawn foals and make it so only wild horses will spawn in the wild. You can fix this conflict by either following the merge tutorial included with the mod, downloading the Lightweight version of the mod, or deleting ambientpedmodelsets.

Bugs
Known Bugs:
- Any horses that are not typically available in the stables or given as a mission reward will revert to a bay when saved as your own. There is currently no way around this, if you wish to save a specific coat from an ambient horse you will need to download the individual file for said horse and replace a different horse with the coat you want

- On very rare occasions, a man will be seen brushing the air. This can be fixed by removing the ambientpedmodelsets file, though foals will no longer spawn and non-wild horses will appear in the wild.

- Clay Davies will occasionally mention the breed of the horse you sell to him.

-The final horseman challenge cannot be completed if you have the ambientpedmodelsets installed. This, as well as some redundant compendium entries can be fixed using an optional file for the mod provided by lexo1000.

-This is significantly larger than any other mod I've made so there's bound to be some errors, if you find any: let me know. Do try to make sure that you are able to replicate any bugs you find and ensure that it isn't due to another mod, otherwise, I appreciate any constructive feedback.

Fixed Bugs:
- Fixed a foal being ridden during "No, No, and Thrice No" as well as the one being used by Pinkertons in Blackwater. Also fixed a random encounter not appearing that previously involved a foal
-Fixed horses appearing invisible in the intro to "My Last Boy"
-A horse no longer appears without a saddle in the cutscene for "An Honest Day's Labors"
-Gave Hamish's leg back to Buell
-There was an issue in earlier versions of the mod where placing your saddle onto a foal would corrupt your save file, this issue is fixed now as of the latest version

-Fixed a vanilla bug with "We Loved Once and True II" where a random placeholder horse would appear in the background

Version History
Version 1.01: Removed shine from the horses and fixed a Vanilla issue with Arthur's Horse's tail being white

Version 1.03.221: I've integrated "My Last Boy Horse Error Fix" so Eagle Flies and Rains Fall now use their own horses during My Last Boy, make sure you do not have that mod installed. Also updated Rachel

Version 1.03.2331: The Lightweight version of the mod now gets rid of textures that aren't absolutely necessary as well as ambientpedmodelsets to reduce the filesize. This comes at the expense of some textures being left as they are in vanilla and foals not spawning as well as non-wild horses spawning in the wild but allows it to be compatible with pretty much every mod and reduces the filesize

Version 1.03.2333: Further optimized the mod to significantly reduce the filesize
Version 1.03.234: Optimized the mod even more: the total file size started out today at 80mb and is now down to 39mb with no content being removed. I also improved some of the horses

Version 1.03.2344: Incorporated my saddle fixes mod, improved various horses in the mod, and created a new brown eye texture
Version 1.03.2345: Reworked how part of the mod was done to significantly increase performance
Version 1.03.2346: Incorporated my geldings mod so now most male horses from this mod that aren’t wild will be gelded (optional)
Version 1.03.2347: Various fixes and improvements
Version 1.03.2348: Made the horses at the Tumbleweed stable all unique, fixed a vanilla issue with the sheath model, changed the face marking on two horses, fixed a few stray pixels on most horses, and updated two of the ambient horses
Version 1.03.235: Changed the Grey Overo paint's texture to be one that is less pixelated, added proper color detailing to some of the horse's posterior areas, cleaned up a texture in the mod and changed the hoof color of the palomino paint; also removed the overo chestnut mustang from the wild horse pool
Version 1.03.2351: Minor bug fixes and improvements
Version 1.03.2352: Optimizations and improvements
Version 1.03.2353: Dehashed all of the files in the main mod, renamed a few of the files, fixed the Individual Files, changed it so the sheaths no longer edit vanilla assets, added more text edits for an overall smoother experience and separated the mules from the draft horses.
Version 1.03.23531: Fixed an issue where your save could get corrupted if you placed your saddle onto a foal, and fixed a vanilla bug with "We Loved Once and True II"
Version 1.03.23532: Fixed a major issue with the materials in the Individual Files, added some new face markings using textures that were previously unused, and improved some of the horses in the mod.
