?

the problem is that the skin for the unupgraded border horse doesn't fit:



any idea how to fix it

If you're not afraid to fiddle around with files yourself, it can be fixed.

You need to edit the battlemodels.modeldb file. Remember to make a backup first, as any error here will cause your game to crash.

What you need to do, is find the border_horse entry and replace the texture lines for scotland and rebels, with the marked text here:

That should fix their texture.

Worked. thx.

Now i can be scotland without cringing at the border horses.

[impspy]

ther is no "EN_Peasant_padded_rebelb.texture" in my _units folder; the scotland one is there though...

The border horses look just like mounted highlanders on my game

I love those messed-up skins!

So is that just 6.2 that fixes them?

Guys,

You have missed something here, this is KK testing Orcs on Horseback for TATW, this is a prototype!
