    I really like the stock horses. I mean, sure, they are a little off, but they are still alot closer to a real stock horse than the old graphics. I just spent over 200k buying stock horses and Knabbs, because I have always wanted to breed them, but never liked the graphics.
    Anyways, I took a picture of a Stock horse from the game, and a Quarter Horse stallion I liked, and compared them.

    The red lines mark off the parts of the horses, and as you can see, the real one is better proportioned, with the pixel being a little long in the back. The circles are what I would change. The legs looks wrong, you'll never see a conformationally sound horse like that. I would prefer a thicker neck when tying into the chest, and the barrel/loin should be a bit lower as well. Over all, I really approve of them.

    Hi there ~

    I've read the posts on the last 20 pages and haven't seen something about dokney coats .. Would they become new ccoats, too ? Because ... the old ones are "not beautiful" and aren't even completly transparent (for example at the tail). And it would be sad, if every horse gets a new coat exept the donkeys ..

    Morgen ~

    As far as we know, no the donkeys will not be getting new coats. It's too bad though, they really need them.

    The Donkey's have never been updated, and it doesn't appear they ever will be.

    The tack change is going to be one interesting change.
    I can totally understand why your all taking about the coats right now. Some make me cringe and a few I like.

    How ever tack change.... please read the spoiler and post yout thoughts on this. It's important. Please use spoilers as this change is still a work in progress.

    As some of you may know the tack feature is currently being tested, but there are some issues.

    Click to display

    Currently we cannot reuse any tack items.
    If we change skills, all tack items are removed and lost. They do not get added to your inventory.
    If you decide to switch a tack item for another, the first item is lost and will NOT be added to your inventory.

    What this basically means is that ALL items can only be used once.
    Once it is put on a horse, it stays for good. You cannot swap any items without loosing the previous tack.



    This will have a major impact on the game. It will become very expensive to train a horse now.

    Assuming that the prices per item are set (prices are from the test site), it will cost the average player quite a lot to tack up a horse, even if their using low star blankets, polo wraps and bonnets.

    Classic comper
    3 star bridel - 4.701
    3 star saddle - 4.202
    1 star blanket - 500
    1 star polo wrap - 500
    1 star bonnet - 500

    total - 10.403e

    Western comper
    3 star bridel - 4.622
    3 star saddel - 4.685
    1 star blanket - 500
    1 star polo wrap - 500
    1 star bonnet - 500

    total - 10.807e

    If we then switch specialty we will have to buy another saddle and bridle.

    We have been waiting for a reply to the above. But the test ends April 15th and we still do not have a reply from the admins.
    I'm getting increasingly worried that Howrse will go ahead and make all tack items non reusable. I have posted my worries there, and several have posted that items should be reusable, but so far the post I have created there has just been labeled as a Suggestion - that in my book indicated that it may be changed in the future, but not on the tack feature they plan to implement to the game.
