📖 About
Horse is a custom creature mod that adds a new rideable animal and a variety of new items to Valheim. You can tame it, ride it, fight from its saddle, have it pull your horse cart, breed it, and store items in its saddlebags.
⚠️ Note: This mod may not be compatible with SkilledCarryWeight.
⚠️ Reminder: Use this mod at your own risk. Always back up your character and world files before installing or updating.
⚒️ Core Features
- Horses spawn in the Meadows biome, and only on sunny days — so they are intentionally rare.
- Horses may spawn with different coat textures and patterns.
- Horses can be equipped with horse armor, granting a bonus to health.
- Horses can be commanded to Wait Here with a configurable hotkey.
- Horses can jump — press Jump while riding to leap (Use dismounts). Jump force and stamina cost are configurable.
- Horses can pull the horse cart.
- Horses can be tamed using Blueberries, Carrots, Cloudberries, and Barley.
- Tamed, saddled horses can carry a saddlebag inventory, accessible with a configurable hotkey (default: B). Saddlebag size is fully configurable. Items stored in the saddlebags will drop on the ground if the horse dies. Disabled by default — enable in the config when ready.
- Horse offspring will flee from players — keep the area enclosed when breeding.
- Taming and growth times are roughly equivalent to those of the Lox.
- All of the above is configurable via the config file, and syncs with server/admin settings.
⚔️ Mounted Combat
- Fight from the saddle with swords, axes, maces, clubs, torches, spears, bows and crossbows — every attack has its own seated animation, your legs stay in the stirrups.
- Draw and fire bows, throw spears and fire crossbows on horseback. Thrown spears are picked up automatically while riding.
- Hold block to raise your shield or weapon while riding.
- Your rider turns in the saddle to follow your aim — up to 90° left and right — and your attacks, arrows and spears go where you aim. Melee can reach enemies at your horse's feet.
- Riders hold what they carry: weapons and torches at the ready, shields up, bows in hand, free hands on the reins.
- Weapons without mounted animations (two-handers, knives, atgeirs, pickaxes, staves, fists) still dismount you when you attack. Your own horse can't be hurt by your attacks unless PvP is on.
- Turn limits, reach, aim speed and more are configurable in [Mounted Combat]. All players need the mod.
