I'm so confused. I've played this game for years, on and off. It's my favourite game. I've travelled everywhere. Never before now, however, have I came across a wild White Paint horse. I was travelling towards the Arcane University and came across about five or so White Paint horses. They ran away from me, but before they did I managed to get to one and find out if I could ride it. I couldn't, it was like every other animal. I tried looking for them again but they were gone for good.

I searched online and couldn't find anything anywhere. Can someone please help? I want to know what this strange occurrence was; it's really bugging me.

I've heard that there are wild horses in Oblivion, but never seen any myself.

It's apprently a very rare spawn in a section of Cyrodiil, between Fort Alessia and Fort Homestead, according to UESP. I did see them yesterday, and right now I am not running any mods that spread their spawnpoints, so it must be a rare occurrence, or I never ended up right exactly where they do spawn before, both very possible.

And reading the UESP page, apparently if you get a wayshrine blessing to also cover your horse by having them atop the shrine, it speeds them up permanently. Man this game just has lots of little things in it, I dunno if I will ever be able to say I know everything about it.

Does MMM add wild horses spawn?

Yes, there are wild horses in the vanilla game. I never saw wild paint horses in my games, but I did see the bays. UESP:
