Testing the horse module

This is a test and proof of concept for an idea I've had for a long time, any feedback is welcome! Please read the description for details

Test Horse Mod

🎯Mod Overview

This is a project I’ve been imagining for a long time and now I’m finally starting to make it happen! This mod is simple on the surface: it changes the horses that spawn at Van Horn Stable so that they are all unique, and you can't bond with them or put them into a stable.

✨ Core Functions

• 🐎 8 unique horses are refreshed in Van Horn Stables, and bonds cannot be established.
• 📊 Customized variety names and attributes
• ♀️ 7 of them are mares and 1 is a stallion
• 🐛 Bug-free experience, compatible with most mods

🔧 Technical details

This project took me days and years of experience, and while it's still a simple proof of concept, I hope you learned a lot about editing PED spawn points and creating custom YMTs.

⚠️ Compatibility Notes

This mod will not conflict with other mods in most cases. But please be careful not to use other mods that modify the following files:

• ambientpedmodelsets
• persistentcharacters.meta
• pedattributes.meta (if you care about attributes)
• vanhorn_horseshop

Contains merge tutorial for ambientpedmodelsets

📁 File function description

• **Horses folder**: Contains custom ymt files containing all horse resources
• **Textures folder**: Contains custom texture dictionaries used by horses
• **Ambientpedmodelsets**: Model set containing new ymt
• **Assets_Horses and Manifest_Horses**: Allow PED to use custom textures and load them into the game
• **Horse.gtx2**: Contains a custom text string that displays the breed as "Horse"
• **Install.xml**: Helps streaming certain files
• **Metapeds_Horses**: Contains metaped entries that define characteristics of horses
• **PedAttributes**: Contains custom attributes to prevent bonding with horses
• **PersistentCharacters**: Define the number of horse refreshes and other settings
• **Reinsdefinitions.ymt**: Define custom horse ymt for reins to work properly
• **VanHorn_HorseShop**: Use the model set to spawn horses and determine their scene behavior

🔍 Known "issues"

• Unable to bond with or store the horses I added, which was not possible before script editing.
• There is no coat color or breed displayed on the status card. This is something I deliberately chose not to modify.
