Hope everyone had an awesome Valentine's Day/Single's Appreciation day.

As part of our Valentine's week I am adding a very cool new feature to the game body types! The first one to be released will be the light boned type with Riding Ponies and Riding Horses. Just like real life Riding Horses/Ponies ours have a ton of Arabian blood for refinement. They are of course not Arabians though but their own breed that come with all possible genes and can be interbred with the current warmbloods.

Just like height bone size is inheritable. The more light boned ancestors a horse has the more likley they will produce light boned foals same for medium boned horses.

**NOTE ABOUT TACK: Many tack items will look odd with these guys and manes and tails plain won't work. I need to go through and turn off most of the tack options so you can't buy them for body types they don't work with but I have not had time for that yet. Buy tack at your own risk, it may never show up on light boned horses. I will not be modifying tack to make it fit, different body types will get their own tack/manes/tails etc.

**HJ2: I'm out of time to add this to HJ2 today. Watch for it to come out tomorrow!

I am pretty excited for the current warmblood and foal art to be redone and even more body types to come in the future too!

On a totally unrelated note, this announcement looks like it was your 1000th post.

The new body type is spectacular.

Oh my goodness, I love this so much. I cant wait to see the warmblood and foal too! Is this something we can also do by re-rolling portraits?

Cavalynn · Feb 15, 2016 8:33 AM

Wow, beautiful! My only regret about this game was that we couldn't have Arabians. Are there going to be Friesian Warmbloods in the future? :D

Helia · Feb 15, 2016 8:51 AM

Guys. She said she will be adding body types. Plural. And this is only the FIRST ONE!!!

Ammit · Feb 15, 2016 8:54 AM

No these are a whole new body type. You can't get them by rerolling. And yep this is the first one.

We will never have any real breeds in the game. That ruins being able to breed for all the colors.

Will there be an option to change 4 yr old and un-bred foundations to the light portraits which were created before today?

Ammit · Feb 15, 2016 8:58 AM

Nope.

Forestshadow · Feb 15, 2016 9:05 AM

OMG I love the new art work. You rock, Ammit!!!

Forestshadow · Feb 15, 2016 9:07 AM

Got a question, though, what's the difference between light and medium size?

Helia · Feb 15, 2016 9:10 AM

Light is the new riding horses, and medium is the original warmbloods and sport ponies. @Forestshadow

Oh my goodness I'm in LOVE. I'm so upset its not on hj2 till tomorrow!

Abbey98 · Feb 15, 2016 10:16 AM

Can we get candy creates with theses new body types?

Raina · Feb 15, 2016 10:18 AM

Yes, Abbey.

BlackMagic · Feb 15, 2016 10:19 AM

Yes Abbey. There have been a few posted on the fb forum already.

Forestshadow · Feb 15, 2016 10:19 AM

Thanks, Hilo

GoldenHeartAcres · Feb 15, 2016 11:21 AM

When interbeeding the riding horse and current type, will the resulting foal have a blend of traits from both parents? Or will it randomly be current type or riding horse type?

Cavalynn · Feb 15, 2016 11:42 AM

My half and half foal came out labeled as a Riding Horse, but the foal image is the same as the Warmblood foal image. Probably the foal images will always be the same, I'm guessing, and will be replaced with the Riding Horse image at roll-over.
