Fans of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion will admire this cheeky nod to one of the first (and worst) pieces of downloadable content for a console game. Dartani’s Horse Armor mod replaces each major city’s buyable player horse with a unique armored option. Frost and Shadowmere also get custom armor (for those who have found them).
Additional mods recommended by the modder:
- Heroic Dwarven Armor Retexture
- Divine Aegis With A Custom Horse Armor by Sader 325
- Mstik Elven Armor With A Custom Horse Armor by Sader 325
- Better Horses
- Horses for followers
- Vicious Weapon Pack
- Plants+Herbs HD Retex
