I am a noob in this part of the modding world. So I have two simple questions:
1. How does it happen?
2. How do I fix it?
Sample pic attached
I believe this is a skeleton/animations issue. What do you have at the end of the BMDB entry for that unit?

Here's the end of the Reiter's Modeldb entry...Make sure your's matches this setup.

1. I'm pretty sure that you don't have the HR's in your weapon description as shown in the example...Nontheless without them the game will put a ground version of your unit on the top of your horses.
2. Just make sure you use those highlighted HR's when you are mounting units, otherwise the unit is standing like in your pic.
