I just tried outfitting my horse with horse armor from the official plugin, but when I get on the horse I can't turn at all. Does anyone know if this is related to the HorsesTurnFaster mod and if it can be fixed?

Thanks.

Edit: I've tried two different horse speed mods, but I also disabled them and just tried the normal way, and I still had the same problem. I just can't turn the horse at all. I also noticed that Horse Command didn't work either. I called the horse but he didn't follow.

Does the horse armor really change so much that it affects all these things?

It's possible. I looked at Horse Armor DLC plugin recently (for a reason relating to the names of horses). What I discovered is that the armoured variants of each horse you can get in game are different entities (with different CIDs) from the unarmoured horses. So mods which change the behaviour of horses may disregard the armoured horses.

possible idea.

there is a bashed patch setting for horse turning speed that if set may be overriding a mod loaded earlier.

Interesting. That could be it, although I did disable all my horse turning mods and I still couldn't turn when my horse was armored. Maybe there was still a remnant of the horse turning mod left over, I don't know.

Edit: Hmmm, except that Saddlebags still works with armored horses....

I tried the Bashed Patch setting before and it didn't really seem to increase the turn speed at all, so I know I have that turned off now.
