I loove this slider but I noticed few "glitches" that you might know already but I thought in case you didnt: Pony foal sleeping A child grooming the adult pony That grooming glitch doesn't really bother me though but I thought that I should show that image still

Evangeline, yep, my sim stroked my pony, and well, you can imagine what she looked, her arms were straight as your kids arms in that photo. But well, this is still lovely slider, and this is only beta-version yet.

I'll look into the foal one to see if that's something I can fix, but there's not really much you can do about the animations clipping or looking a little funny, as far as I know. The horses naturally float or sink into/clip the ground when resizing since I resized using spine_0 and pelvis (the highest level joints available, since ROOT_bind and ROOT both freaked out), which means that the horse is prone to floating or sinking and has to be "offset" to touch the ground when standing. It seems to me from testing that the animations are set to move a certain amount that makes sense with a normal size horse, so very small and very large horses will have issues with moving up and down more than expected, and therefore may clip the ground or leap a mile into the air all depending on the code of that animation. I'll play with some more ideas on how to fix this and maybe the above paragraph will help some people understand what's going on, so thanks for pointing it out. That's why this is a Beta release!

Been playing with this for a few hours and it's great! Some things are a little buggy (animations) but nothing I'm hugely bothered by. Except one issue, shrinking sims >_< It doesn't bother me too much so long as I stick to a pony not too small and I can live with it, but just in-case it helps any I think it's linked with the stirrups; My theory is that the stirrups will always be at one point on the horse so when the sim mounts and their stirrups aren't quite high up enough, the sim shrinks so they're where the 'Should' be. I took a few screeny's of different sized ponies so I'll post them up later and show you what I mean. (I'm no good at explaining). Still, it's AMAZING, especially in the short time you created it. You're a genius. XD

Hihi funny pony Joyce! When everything is all figured out I'm going to do a request here on the forum. I would love to have my deceased shetland pony in my game!

@joyce Second Picture, is that a pose? How did you get the sim so close on the horse?

Quinn, by shrinking you mean the entire sim shrinks right? This shouldn't be happening, but you and Amanda have both reported this. The sim is linked to the back joint while riding and the back joint should remain at the correct size. In most screenshots I'm seeing and my own game, the sims are not resizing to fit the horse. It just bends the legs as needed to keep the feet in the right spot. I'll look into why it's working right for some and not for others. xmichxrocky: From what I understand, sliders work just fine on mac. If you're not sure how to install .package files, see this help page.

I got time to test the slider, and yeah, a back slider would be nice xP I couldn't resist creating a herd of minis though, gonna put up pictures in my album as soon as I'm done with these last two mares :B
