Helga’s Warhorses of Ellyrion
“Yet as the blinding light of magic faded from his sight, he saw that he no longer rode alone. Dozens of horses surrounded him, duns, blacks, greys, whites, dappled and bay, piebald and silver. Herds from all across Ellyrion galloped over the plains beside him, and more were coming with every passing moment.”
Hello everyone!
My nick is Helga and I bring to you this mod to add some nice variety to the ponies of Ulthuan!
As you can see from the above quote, high elven horses come in all sorts of colors which are not reflected in this game at the moment. I found it a shame, so I have decided to make as realistic as possible recolors to spice up your unit variety!
Hope you will enjoy my efforts!
At the moment, the following colors are added:
- Dunolino
- Silver Dapple Grulla with Overo markings
- Red Taffy/Silver Bay
- Jet Black with minimal Birdcatcher Spots
- Dominant White
- Blue Roan with Reverse Dapples
- Sooty Bay
- Dapple Grey
- Flaxen Liver Chestnut
- Buttermilk Buckskin
Update 1 – The Warden & The Paunch – 2 additional recolors have been added:
- Chestnut
- Bay Roan Tobiano
Since the maximum number of variations is set to 25, more colors might be added later, especially ones on the lighter side. I am always open to suggestions as well.
These recolors will affect all 3 variants of the base horses belonging to lord, hero, ellyrian reavers (both variants), silver helms (both variants), chariots (both variants) and dragon princes.
Malhandir, Mautererius and RoR ponies of all types are unaffected (in latter case the aim is to keep them more elite feeling).
This mod IS save game compatible and it can also be removed without breaking a save. It is purely a retexture pack!
I would also like to give my gratitude to people who took me under their wings to teach a pleb like me some modding:
– Stockings for building up the beta mod and final pack file you downloading now!
– Xoudad for fixing bugs and giving us tips on how to improve the mod and add compatibility!
– ScribeUntitled for trying to teach me how to make a pack file! One day I will learn!
– Hazard for the godlike screenshots!
– Rest of Xoudads server for the huge support! ♥
– The amazing CyberSniper who made me this amazing cover because yes.
