Ever closer. Also first foal coat-detail overlay (non-replacer) achieved. The bodies are also a toggle/non-replacer.

The great king of the forest, and his royal crown... New day, new sculpt, new textures. At least now the Morse's will make sense. LOL

[pure-winter-cc]

And..done! :D This is a sample of some of the realistic and fantasy color schemes. The GShade is my 'Arabian Days' on Curse Forge.

This will release with the other completed antlers and the Morse pack when everything is fully finished. Gettin' excited! After that is back to realism, with a rig edited horse breed from real life. A very very big one.

Sculpting one of the antler sets that will make up the magical Morse and Dorse release packs.! ❤️

HD Bengal Version 2 :D Added 5 new colors, fixed paw pads & whisker colors, other texture issues to clean it up drastically and improve the quality! Downloadable on patreon now, and coming to curse forge in a few weeks. :) For babies, adults, all body types, found in 'whiskers' so non replacer!

Royal Jumper Saddlepads - 13 Swatches, specular, built in shadows. (Not shadow map.) Great for HD horses and realistic fit saddle CC.

Morse Mod WIP. Grizzled coat, hybrid coat (which makes regular horses a hand taller when applied so you can make hybrid horses or hybrid morses), and baby with two little antler nubs that automatically change to the hoof color. :D You can also remove the morse coats on morse bodies to make them a hand shorter for more hybrid options. I have a bull shown, but you can make thinner ones for cows. My first rig-edit mod, so the sims sit taller on the morse's back when ridden, too. These are huge animals! Left to do: Fix animation seam on baby, some UV seams on coats, make the various antlers, make their tribal leather bridle and druid-vines bridle.

(This is a non-replacer WIP mod found in coat length that turns your horses into literal ponies.) 😂The slow process of making a pony. I figured out how to propogate the missing bone names but I have to add any and all bones I want to edit manually from the very long rig list. Positive: The theoretical ponies would work with all sliders and all CC as usual and be ridden by sims. (Would look less derpy with children, though!) Negative: While the animations should play normally, poses probably will not work for them (existing horse poses work for them!!) and they will of course clip into objects/other horses. (but not other ponies, probably.) Uncertainty: I'm nooot sure how the rig is going to act when I put it back on the ground with all four feet. Modding is an adventure. (If I can get my above rig pony-fied then I can reevaluate some pony preset items if they don't look pony enough out of the box, but I'm pretty good at what I do and they should look like ponies with just the game's normal sliders.)

On a positive, I figured out how to make changes to the horse rig without Morph Maker. On a negative, nothing is clearly labeled and it's a wild guessing game. I got Sims Studio to load the actual names of bones one time and I have no idea how I did it, but I wish I could do it again. So yeah, one day, ponies.

It finally happened folks, horse body non-replacer preset CAS items have landed. These will toggle off ANY body, vanilla or replacers, and equip the one from the mod! It's stackable and compatable with everything! Patron member requests are released for free, for everyone. :) This theme pack includes an Arabian body, 2 head styles (less dished and very dished), CAS Background, 12 HD tail swatches, and an updated Arabian coat overlay found in Coat Length that includes a built in custom shine shader map. For modders, exclusion flag tutorial and documentation included in PDF to make your own body non-replacer swaps.

Modding failure aka 'fun with specular maps.' Modding is just.. reading 2017 tutorials and banging things together until it starts working, I swear. -Rereads- It should work but it don't. Why? Now it works but it shouldn't why?? ^Literally everything I've ever done in the Sims 4.

Goodbye choosing a favorite body override, hello modders making any breed body they want without clipping or compatibility issues. Comptable with all textures and existing game sliders. Also working on increasing texture resolution for horses... I hope. No promises. I think I can. This is a work in progress, but when it is released, I will be releasing it with a set of breed presets equipped as items. Arabian, baroque, Akhal Teke, Mawari, my ye'ol'better body as a standard fill in, and friesian. I will also release a simple guide for modders to add their own breeds using this script free mod.

I will also be working on a small accompanying mod that default equips a body to all newly spawned/game created horses so they aren't walking around with 'equip a body' but that's a lower priority on the ladder right now.

A CAS equippable coat (in coat length, toggle on/off any horse any time) that looks especially nice on black or very dark horses. For use with my expanded horse colors mod, otherwise it is not possible to paint dark-dark or with true black by coat selection or painting alone. https://www.curseforge.com/sims4/pets/pw-expanded-horse-colors

KWPN Dutch Warmblood, Breed Standard Coat Overlay (Free) Currently taking requests from Patreon members and whatever they request gets released for free. I'm especially fond of this coat, as I spent a lot more time on it and used some custom texture brushes along with my usual magic-in-a-bag with lots of extra polish on the underside and places you wouldn't always see- which includes details on the bottom of the hooves. I hope ya'll like it, and as usual check my curse forge (when it passes mod queue) to download it from there instead if you're not a Patreon-free-download fan. :) https://www.curseforge.com/members/pure_winter/projects

Akhal Teke Coat Length WIP

March Coat Releases Summary- So far. :) Comparing all my new CAS equipped coat length releases in one place. More to come.

If the thought of (yet again) whipping out those dapple stencils for a bay makes you groan, this coat preset will save the day. As it is also traditionally difficult to shade/highlight dapples of any kind, you will appreciate the mirror like finish on this coat. Found in CAS under Coat Thickness for adult horses. Non-replacer toggle item, equip or unequip any time!
