🏇 About Oguri Cap

**Oguri Cap** (Japanese: オグリキャップ, March 27, 1985 – July 3, 2010) was a Japanese Thoroughbred racehorse and stallion, sired by Dancing Cap.

  • **Legendary Status**: Oguri Cap was inducted into the Japan Jockey Club Hall of Fame in 1991. As a horse that moved from local events to the national stage, he was known as one of the "Heisei Three" along with Super Creek and Inari One and reignited Japan's horse racing craze.
  • **"Idol Horse"**: He is so beloved by fans that he has earned the nickname **"Idol Horse"**. His appearance attracted a large number of spectators who came not just for betting on horses, and he was also one of the first racehorses to have a plush doll in his own image, a peripheral product that is now very common.
  • **Far-reaching Impact**: Although he missed the registration deadline to participate in the 1988 Japan Classic Triple Crown (Satsutsuki Sho, Tokyo Yujun/Japan Derby, and Chrysanthemum Sho) because he started in local events, his continued winning performance aroused strong public outcry. Although the Japan Racing Association did not make an exception at the time, it later changed the rules and relaxed registration restrictions, allowing late entrants and even foreign-born horses (at a high fee) to participate in classic races. The later famous horse **T. M. Opera O** was one of the beneficiaries of this new rule.

🎮 Module function

  • **Appearance replacement**: Directly replace the default dark Gulf Turkmen horse model in the game with a unique appearance that pays homage to the Oguri Cap.
  • **Tribute to the Legend**: In the adventure of galloping through the American West, ride a legendary horse from the East and experience a unique blend of history and culture.

💡 Usage suggestions

  • Riding this "idol horse" in towns such as Saint-Denis or Valentine may attract the attention of more NPCs (psychological bonus!).
  • Paired with a set of exquisite saddle and harness, it can bring out the extraordinary temperament of this legendary horse.
**Please note**: This mod only replaces the appearance model of the horse and does not change its attributes, breeds or how to obtain it in the game. You will still need to obtain a dark bay Turkmen horse through the normal means of the game.

**Ride in the wild west and walk with the legend! ** 🐎

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.
