Oaklore Posted June 12, 2012 Posted June 12, 2012 Greetings folks, Just wondering if anyone has seen or created a mod which allows for interactions and/or combat from horseback as yet. I've fossicked through the caverns of LL and waded through the swamps of Nexus, finding some which change the AI of horses as followers and pets, some that add armours and carrying capacity, fancy new textures and all other manner of things. However, I am yet to find any mod which enables horseback interactions. The idea of needing to leap down from the back of your fine steed in order to swing a blade at the enemy has always seemed like redundancy at it's greatest. Are not the most valuable units in any medieval style army the highly mobile knights (and even archers) mounted on horseback? Thanks in advance for any advice that may be forthcoming. - Oaklore

Oaklore Posted June 12, 2012 Author Posted June 12, 2012 The newest update of Skyrim features the mounted combat. No need for modding it now. Isn't the latest update a beta release? Skyrim is buggy enough without being a guinea pig for Bethesda's newest range of bugs, glitches and broken mod compatibilities.
Syndrome Posted June 12, 2012 Posted June 12, 2012 If modders try to add mounted combat by themselve, I can imagine that it's gonna be much buggier than bethesda's patches. In order to make it work, modders might need more complicated script works to make the game recognize new combat system and custom combat animation. Right now, adding custom combat animation is really tricky.

oblivionwithdongs Posted June 12, 2012 Posted June 12, 2012 bethesda needs to hurry up and release that update already, horses are painful to use since you have to get off every time a fight starts
Oaklore Posted June 12, 2012 Author Posted June 12, 2012 bethesda needs to hurry up and release that update already' date=' horses are painful to use since you have to get off every time a fight starts [/quote'] I absolutely agree. It's good that a mod isn't required after all, but there's no way in hell I'm going to permit installation of an update that is still in beta stage development. I'll wait until they release a "stable" version.

Imanuelus Posted June 13, 2012 Posted June 13, 2012 Apparently it is out of beta - and it breaks a ton of mods. Worse yet, since the CK is no longer compatible with the new updates, most modders are sitting on their hands at the moment waiting for a new version of CK.
