Horse Mod [B42.20+/MP]

Find different breeds of horses, take care of them, and ride them! Craft gear for them and equip it onto your horse to improve your riding experience.

Meatball Fix

EVERY PLAYERS ON THE SERVER NEED TO DO THAT!

This is due to a problem with the base game which doesn't properly load animations when reloading mods. See #215 for more information.

Java fix

A fix is provided in a Leaf mod made by albion, one of our devs: Mod Animation Loading Fix.

Where to Find Horses

They can be found in some farms, ranches, and stables around the map. You can find 7 different breeds each with multiple color variants:

• American Quarter (Palomino, Blue Roan, Seal Bay, Strawberry Roan.)

• American Paint (Tobiano, Overo.)

• Appaloosa (Grulla Blanket, Leopard.)

• Thoroughbred (Bay, Flea-Bitten Grey, Reverse Brindle, Cricket.)

• Camarillo (White.)

• Rocky Mountain Spotted (Liver Chestnut.)

• Mustang (Buckskin Dun, Grulla Dun.)

Keybinds

*Check the Mod Options to change the keybind!

• Mount / Dismount (default: interact key): Get on or off your horse, and cancel it with the same key if needed.

• Walk (default: player movement keys).

• Trot toggle (default: X).*

• Gallop (default: Left Shift).*

• Jump (default: Space) - Jump over small fences, requires the horse to gallop.*

• Kick zombies (default: Space) - Kick zombies on the side of the horse with your foot, same key as your pushing key but no need to aim.

Gear and Equipment

When you have equipment in your inventory, you can equip them on the horse from the horse context menu from a menu named "Gear". Currently the equipments available for the horse are:

• Saddle - not required to ride a horse, but without it your character will get pain in the groin.

• Reins

• Saddlebags - allows you to store items on your horse and ride around with them.

Known common issues:

See the FAQ for common questions and solutions.

• The horse animations don't load properly unless launching the game with the mod enabled from the start (#215)

• Creating a save without having launched the game with the mod enabled will prevent horse ranch zones from appearing, and so horses won't spawn in the world. See FAQ for a possible solution. (#382)

• DO NOT RIDE IN STAIRS: riding down stairs will kill the player (#573)

• Equipments and manes on the horse have a large outline when aiming a weapon at it (#18)

• Aiming while riding a horse looks weird (#214)

• Dismounting is sometimes not possible (#381). Quit then join the save again to fix it.
