I've recently started modding, and so far it's been great. I've more or less got it how I want it. Better Levelled Lists, Better Cities, Tamriel Transport Network, Disable Fast Travel, Persuasion Overhaul, Delete Spells, Keychain, etc. I want to do something about the horses in the game to make them useful. Simple Saddle Bags is a great Mod to add a really useful function to the horses (especially with Open Cities ), however it's only useful if I can command my horse. Now, I know I'm being exceedingly nitpicky about this, but I don't like the spells/powers that do this. I've spent a lot of time making the world more believable and identifiable, and needing spells to command the horse kind of kills that (particularly for non-magical characters). In that regard the Command Your Horse Mod is great as you can activate the horse to tell it what to do.

The problem I have is that these mods won't work together. I'm getting the hang of OBMM, but Wrye Bash is a mystery to me, and writing scripts is far beyond my capability (I've been doing this for maybe a week). I was just wondering if there were any mods out there that combined both functionalities, or if there was an easy way to merge the mods. Worse case scenario is I stick with the Spell ones, but I thought it'd be worth asking.

Thank you for any help.

May also wanna read thru http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1105679-recommended-horse-saddlebags-command-mods/page__p__16185385__hl__horse__fromsearch__1#entry16185385. Should be something useful in there.

Thanks for the help. It looks like what I'm after doesn't really exist (but thank you for the help nonetheless). Most of those mods add too much. All I'm really after is a Command Menu, and Saddlebag access. Looks like I'll make dowith the spells for the time being. Again, thanks for the help, I really don't want to seem ungrateful.

Actually what you want is here... http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=8766 Has the following : Horse commands v4, Horse speed equals player speed 1.8, Own stolen horses over time, Simple saddlebags. Might not be exactly how you want to command them ...but it does play well with no glitches.

Fully customizable via an ini file.

Enjoy.

What I use is Horse Commands with the saddlebag part disabled (in the .ini file, you can disable any other part you want as well if you wish) and MD Saddlebags.

This give me "real" saddlebags, that can be brought, and placed on, and removed from, my horses as I wish. While also having all the Horse Command goodness as well.
