Tack System Updates
  • I have scrapped together a quick bare bones tack system to get tack up and working for all horses in the game. Tack is no longer on it's own page but is now a tab on the horses' page.

    New features include dynamic color and no pricing.
    -> You can customize your tack by changing the colors of items using HEX codes.
    -> Tack from now on will be unlocked based on your upgrade level and in future purchasable packs. There is no longer a per item fee for tack.

    Lots more features are coming for tack as well as a better GUI for tack purchasing but for now you are up and running at least.
  • Oooh, interesting! It's even available for riding and heavy! I think it's missing some backgrounds, though. Thanks!
  • Finally on HAJ2. Thank you very much, I love the new tack system! :D

  • Yayyy! So exciting! Cant wait to look at everything lol.

    And I think all the backgrounds are there Rose which ones do you think its missing?
  • All newer backdrop backgrounds, the Midwinter Pasture, Aurora Blizzard, all Rose Hedges and the Northern Lights. If your horse already has one of these backgrounds and you want to use it, it's impossible to change. It will say "Your horse isn't allowed to have this tack item" or something similar.

  • Hm thats strange its not like that for me
  • Perhaps they are only available to higher upgraded players...

  • It's bad for non-upgraded players who will never get an upgrade. Okay, I can understand that the newest backgrounds are buyable only for upgraded players, but hedges and the Northern Lights were added at least 1-2 years ago (I'm a quite new player, so I have no idea how long are they in game) and they used to cost 1 hb for each, just like basic blue or autumn background (which are commonly available).

    I have no idea what criteria have decided which items are buyable for all players and which are "special".

    But I'm not complaining, I like the simplicity, so all of my horses have basic blue background. Custom colors for other tack items are just wonderful!

  • I can see the Aurora Blizzard and Midwinter Pasture, but I don't see the slightly older Amethyst, Emerald, Pewter, and Turquoise. This was on a Riding horse who didn't have any unusual background because the tack page was completely closed to them for a while. :) I really hope they aren't exclusive now, because those were some of my favourites. :(
  • A very small portion of tack is now upgrade exclusive. It sucks for me that people who will never upgrade actually cost me money each month, but I gave you free tack items anyways. ;) Since you can buy a basic upgrade with game cash and unlock almost everything and ALL tack items are free now I think it is incredibly fair.
  • I totally understand. :) You make it super hard not to upgrade, believe me! I'm THIS close. >||<
  • I understand too.
    I want to be an upgraded player one day...but you know, for the first I'm not an adult player and for the second I don't live in US so, hmm, problems with payment.
    Seems like I should start saving money for IVs.

    Thank you for free tack, it's really great.

    And a small question: @Ammit, on the first HAJ server you posted about changing tack graphics and adding some new tack items in the future - does that include adding, at example, western style saddles? I'm just curious.

  • We'll have to see. ;) In other words that's in the future and I can't predict that.
    Thanked by 1pinestables
  • Okay, I understand :D

    Sorry if I'm a little bit...impatient, but when will be the new image projects reviewed? On HAJ it have been some two days since I posted my project. I know you are probably very busy, but just...another question :)

  • I was busy getting tack out on HJ2. Patience is just one of those things you will need to have for me to work with you.
  • Sorry. I will be more patient.

    I think spamming this topic isn't okay too, so thank you one more time for the new tack system.[/my spam posts]

  • Tack is addictive!
  • I love the new tack options! Has anybody tried to create a colored saddle or bridle - think endurance racing biothane?
