Basic horse.ymt editing guide

🐎 **Welcome to the world of horse modding! **

I created this guide to help beginner horse modders easily learn how to perform basic editing of horse .ymt files.

📖 Guide content

This guide covers the following:

  • Basic understanding of code clusters
  • Edit eye color
  • Added horseshoes
  • How to add/remove leg feathers
  • Swap mane/tail and coat color

🎉 **New content! **More details about mane and tail

🛠️ Resources for modders

Contains unmodified original horse .ymt files, including online horses

Also included is a detailed modder resource, listing the corresponding ".ytd" file for each horse, as well as a list of all files that share textures with other horses.

If you find any errors in the file, please let me know and I will fix it.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
