I liked the mod but removed t due to the upkeep costs of the mounts. I couldn't figure out why my economy was lower than normal and then I was like "why are horses so expensive?" I play tribal so even a small upkeep sucks at first.

EVENT csmm.019 use "previous_owner" to check artifact, but this scope is for check wonder in the current CK2 version.
"previous_artifact_owner" should be used instead.

The upkeep cost on mounts is prohibitive. Even the cheapest mounts cost upkeep around as high as half the taxes of a small city. It makes no sense that a cheap mount costs more than 100 active cavalry to maintain and if I want to sell my cheap mount how much of my investment do I get back? None. I lose money somehow.

It would be wonderful if you could make it Game of Thrones friendly. I know sparingly little about modding myself. I think I can just adjust some of the parameters and substitute AGOT items for Real world one.

You know for me this mod is needed in the Witcher King's mod for one specific reason.

Redania has the best horses and this would give a chance to even the playing field.

And in Thrones it would see two uses.

The first being Dothraki providing it didn't crash every attempt to play in essos.

And the second is it will be very fun to selectively stock up on regional mounts to produce the best stock.

Author you should really create sub-mods for this that allow these.

I've checked around the world where mount supposed to be and unfortunately there is either a very small number , such as 0.0008, or a negative number, such as -1.5678, is there any way to make these provinces produce more?
JimmyG1970 6 Jul, 2022 @ 7:29pm 
Please make this mod compatible with Thrones
Valikdu 26 Aug, 2021 @ 3:09am 
The mount upkeep modifier gets applied after I'd tried to purchase a mount but there wasn't one and it got refunded.
Thanatiflora 20 Apr, 2021 @ 9:21am 
Also @Finney J Trump it does not for me so it might be a diff mod that's not working with this one.
Thanatiflora 20 Apr, 2021 @ 9:20am 
Where can I get Wolves?
Mack000 8 Jan, 2021 @ 1:17am 
Guys, I just found out this mod crashes my game. It needs an update.

Amazing mod
Kingcel 28 Jul, 2020 @ 4:08am 
would it be possible to add back mounted combat in battles? ( the thing that is currently disabled)
[BoS] TiberDasher 12 Jun, 2020 @ 8:39am 
Will this be updated to work with 3.3.x and the the current HIP?

Apologies for the late replies.

@Meatwad
I'm not familiar with that mod but it works with vanilla Patricians and Doges so it might be that mod causing issues. Are you getting any options at all? Or are you buying one then getting told there aren't any available?

@Wamuu
Maybe when I'm back to modding

Important to note that I am using the Dark Ages mod, I don't know if that would be considered a major overhaul mod.
klirko 7 Jun, 2020 @ 2:13am 
When I go to buy a mount it says there aren't any mounts available, even the bad ones. I don't think the mod is broken because I took someones horse a few generations ago, and I see pop ups about characters that I marked as special about their horses.

I am playing in Venice, but currently I am not the Serene Doge, but I own the Duchy of Ancona, Krete, Cyprus, Tripoloi, and a county in Serbia.

You should add African and Asian Lions too

African lions only in Africa continent and Asian lions in Middle East,India and Greece

Is there a manual install link?
Purplepineapple  [author] 18 Mar, 2020 @ 2:38pm 
@sniper
It will calculate from your capital province. A player can always buy horses assuming there are horses available in the market.
I am not your little princess! 17 Mar, 2020 @ 10:20pm 
What about if I vassal? Vassals don't have capital? Thats mean if I a vassal i cant buy horses?
Purplepineapple  [author] 16 Mar, 2020 @ 2:28pm 
@sniper
It doesn't calculate from where your character is.

You have to be a certain distance from a mount province to interact with it. Either your capital or any of your provinces that are dejure of your primary title. So if you were the King of Hungary then any land that is dejure part of Hungary would work. Check the modifier on the mount province for the specific distance you need.
If you don't know where to find the distance then this is how:
1. Click on a province
2. Hover your mouse on another province
3. There should be a tooltip in the lower right that tells you the distance between the 2 provinces.

The King of Poland is probably in range of another mount province. Also check the modifier on the province and make sure that the number of mounts isn't 0.
I am not your little princess! 16 Mar, 2020 @ 2:01pm 
I also checked the distance for me it's 88. So your mod doesn't work properly. Tested on 3.21 vanilla
I am not your little princess! 16 Mar, 2020 @ 1:36pm 
I think you mod is broken. When I try to buy in market it always shows me that no horses in my area and give money back. Although I own a province where there is a modifier "slavic mount equipment" and my character is standing right there.
Then i chose my neighbor king of poland via console and brought his army right to the same province and you know what? He can buy all horses without problems, although he doesn’t even have provinces with this parameter lol

Hello everyone, The mod is currently on a big hiatus because of work and personal issues. There will be an update in the future but I don't know when exactly.


@budaboi3000
Hello, really sorry for the late reply.

Mod is version 1.7.3
For the latest CK2 version

You can only get Mongolian horses through breeding. You either have to be a Mongol or be in the Northeastern Steppes when the Mongol invasion is happening.

Stablemasters don't affect breeding. They affect event outcomes and extend your mounts' natural lifespans. The best stablemasters need to have either the tier 3 or 4 stablemaster trait and high stewardship.

What horse you get from breeding is sort of random but not really. Many things affect what horse you get but generally it is a very very high chance to get the same breed if both parents are the same. You just rolled really low that time and got a destrier.

budaboi3000 27 Feb, 2020 @ 12:37am 
What's the current version of the mod? Also how do you get a Mongolian horse? I remember seeing it in one of my playthroughs. Also when you have a stable master what are the preferred traits that I should be looking for. I had an instance where I paid for the most expensive stablemaster and none of my horses were breeding. Also in another playthrough I was breeding Nisean horses and somehow got a destrier horse. One of the Nisean horses had a blue trait modifier.

@rootbeer thanks man :)

@Lazarox
As far as I've experienced, yes, it is compatible.

@author is this compatible with HIP frosty1?

Ah I thought the mod was broken But now I see that your updating it.
Welp Hope you will be done soon! :winter2019happyyul:

@Root Beer = Best Soda
Yeah someone else reported this a while ago too. I checked but the modifiers are updated whenever a mount is gained or lost. So tbh I'm not sure what's causing it.

@baboon
No sorry.
Killing Case 28 Jan, 2020 @ 5:30am 
How do i get horses from other areas? I managed to have the option a while ago, and i'm not sure what changed, but i no longer have that option. My boarders only got larger, so i am in range, I even used cheats to take the province that produces the horses to see if that will allow me to buy them. It doesn't.

Is there any rhyme or reason to it, or was it just right place right time?
I AM TRANSCENDENT 26 Jan, 2020 @ 9:44am 
Follow up to my previous message:

I purchased a new, less quality mount, and it changed the "Mount Upkeep" modifier to represent the cost of that tier of horse.

Whenever the mount dies, I will see if the modifier remains applied to my character or not.
I AM TRANSCENDENT 26 Jan, 2020 @ 9:33am 
I have a bit of an issue. The modifier "Mount Upkeep" is still present on my character even after his mount died via an Event.

The mount upkeep was something like 16 ducats per year, because the mount was exotic (Russian bear).

It isn't terrible because my count is still able to make enough money to offset the upkeep. I will try to get a new mount and then see if it replaces the existing modifier, or if it adds a new one.

Is this an issue you are aware of, @Auirus?

This mod though, is very nice and I enjoy it very much. Thanks for your hard work and dedication!
baboon 24 Jan, 2020 @ 7:18pm 
Is there an alternative to this mod that is not tied to provinces, or works with total conversions?
Luzilyo 20 Jan, 2020 @ 8:09am 
it's not a big problem. just something i thought i'd bring to your attention, which i've done, so mission complete, i guess. lol
Purplepineapple  [author] 19 Jan, 2020 @ 3:29pm 
@Luzilyo
Unfortunately no. I've had a few issues with Ruler Designer starts across my mods but I've recently found a way to fix them. It's just I'm busy these days and the time I have to myself I sadly don't feel like modding.

@dannyoffthewall
Yeah but that would require me to edit a vanilla file which would break compatibility with anything that touches that file. It's a shame but I'd rather not really mess with it.

@Orph3us
I haven't played CK2 or kept up with HIP for a while now. Only thing that would really affect this mod is map changes. So if HIP changed the map since I last updated then this mod might not work.
Luzilyo 18 Jan, 2020 @ 8:33am 
regarding the book of mounts, are the contents available online somewhere as well? i play in kiev with my own custom ruler (ruler designer). the book was given to the standard ruler (dobrava turov) though. it is not such a big problem, because i married her and now i just have to wait for my son to inherit it from her, but still. in a different scenario it could be very annoying.
dannyoffthewall 17 Jan, 2020 @ 9:03pm 
The vanilla intrigue choice 'get a warhorse' for nomads, doesn't actually give you a mount. I assumed it would. Would be cool addition if you can make it work.
Orph3us 16 Jan, 2020 @ 7:12am 
is it compatible with the latest HIP release?
Purplepineapple  [author] 12 Jan, 2020 @ 10:13am 
@Brandon
Hello there.

1.How did you give it to the commander? Mounts are exempted from the vanilla "Give Artifact" decision and using the mod decision creates a new mount for the commander. Are you sure that's how your mount got taken away?

2. How did it die in battle? Mounted combat is currently disabled.
Brandon 11 Jan, 2020 @ 11:22am 
Possible bug (or could be a mod conflict) - I had four horses at one point, I gave one to a commander, two died of old age, and one in battle. However my mount_cost stayed at 32 per year. Shouldn't that go away once all the horses are gone? I noticed this a couple of years after the last horse had passed, so I think it had enough time to cycle off.
raguel 3 Dec, 2019 @ 7:18am 
Ok thanks
Purplepineapple  [author] 3 Dec, 2019 @ 3:15am 
@raguel
Sure, just as long as you credit me :).
raguel 1 Dec, 2019 @ 11:42pm 
Hey I'm looking to combine the community patch mod with a bunch of other mods I use and upload it. Is it ok to use your mods?
Purplepineapple  [author] 24 Nov, 2019 @ 12:41pm 
@Vailanor
If you use csm.203 another Bucephalus may spawn while the first is alive. Use csm.201 for the full chain if you want only 1 Bucephalus to be alive at any given point.
Empyrean 24 Nov, 2019 @ 11:19am 
Is it safe get Bucephalus through event csm.203 ,or is it necessary to run the full event chain?
