Absolutely Dimitri, it was taken in-game. : ) I did it exactly how Julie mentioned, with pressing Ctrl+A and Ctrl+D while in Tab view. You can also hit Ctrl+S after you've tilted the camera to revert it back to its non-tilt state, just in case you don't like the way you've tilted it. This feature is very fun and effective, I had no idea it existed until recently!
Julie, thank you for sharing that tip for others! I just learned it verrrry recently myself and I'm finding it awesome. And thank you so much, I'm very glad you like my stuff. : ) Also, welcome to the community! There's no need to be sorry at all about dropping a comment, I (and I'm sure everyone else) find them very complimentary and they are always welcome. Equus is a very friendly, jump-right-in community and I hope you're loving it here! : )
Aww, thanks Lance! I guess that means I seriously need to get to making those few little fixes so I can upload it. I'll see if I can do that sometime today, or tomorrow hopefully at the latest.
I got a couple more pictures today, I spent some more time working on the new arena. Here's some pictures featuring the inside of it. Though it's unfinished I figured it's decent enough at this point. xD
So this is Hannibal riding Noni (Infallible). Though Noni is his cousin Nikolaus' horse, Hannibal rides him pretty freely.
I wish you could color under roofs. I really like how the roof of the indoor looks but it's like a blanket of non-blending greeey. ;w; And I'll fix the coloring on the back walls. xD
Random note, all of the Sky Crest Ridge horses have the same tack, I did that purposefully since I was thinking the stable would be more uniform that way in terms of the horses. But... I think I'll be changing that up soon. It gets old looking at different horses with the same tack. And different horses will do better in different tack. I want some things to remain uniform, but I'm thinking of switching things up with the tack... xD

Hmm... I'll definitely try that, thanks guys! And a gorgeous arena... I really like how you did the open sides.

To Lance, the world has six empty 64x64 lots for putting your horse facilities on and a couple of small community lots here and there to go mess around at, though they don't have buildings on them, they're more-so little hang-out spots. There are no rabbit holes in this world either and no roads, just paths for trail riding. So it's a small world that's good if you like that sort of seclusion. Also, thank you!
I hope you have fun with the tilt feature, Dimitri! And thank you so much! *w* I like this one way better than my last one. The jumping course actually routes properly in this arena, while in the last one, it decided to be a fail and it did not. I mean it worked, but it was a fail. Haha, with the open sides, now the riders have the option to be a rebel - don't wanna use the front entrance? Jump the half-wall out! Aww yeah.

Thanks Great to feel welcomed so soon! I almost forgot, need to do my application soon >.< The angles on your new pictures are superb, especially the look from over the shoulder I also find that riding hall is really gorgeous from the inside, should work on mine but I had trouble with the layout... May I use this as inspiration?

You're very welcome, Julie! I hope you stick around! : ) Thank you! I'm really having way too much fun with that tilt feature, it brings so much to taking screenshots! And you are more than welcome to use my arena interior as inspiration, I'd be honored! <3

YOU BOTH LIED TO ME.
On my computer it's Shift+A and Shift+D to tilt the camera. No wonder it has always never worked for me... everywhere it has been "Ctrl+A/D..." Well, I guess it's mostly my fault for not trying a different option before this, harrrr.

Seems I haven't had a look at this till I went on vacation. So I'm gonna give my two cents now. Love the way you edited my stall plates. It's nice to see that someone actually uses the files i uploaded. And I still love your landscaping. I'd totally download your world just to look at all those plants and get some inspiration.

WORLD IS FINALLY UP FOR DOWNLOAD! ♥
Sorry, sorry, I wanted to get it out yesterday! But it took me longer than I initially anticipated to iron out some kinks and prepare the thread. But I made sure I got it out this morning. ; w ;
NUUUUU DIMITRI, I'M SO SORRY! ; n ; [-Hangs head in shame-] I don't know why but I was convinced it was Ctrl, it's... it's just so close to the shift key! I think when I'm tilting, I must hit the Ctrl key first, figure out it doesn't work and then subconsciously move to the shift key without really acknowledging it. Because like... in my brain, I thought it was Ctrl for sure for some reason, but double-checking myself in game you're right!
Thank you, Manon! Well... to be honest I don't know about the arena... just because it's supposed to be part of the Sky Crest Estates and I sort of want to keep those facilities exclusive. I'm really sorry... I may change my mind one day, though. If you'd like I could try building a different arena with the intention of it being for public download? : )
Aww, thanks so much, Lakeside! <33 I just put the world up, so if you still want to download it, I really hope you enjoy the trails in game! <3
Thank you, Silverblood! *w* You have some seriously gorgeous facilities yourself! Wow! So white and pristine.
I really couldn't thank you enough for making those plates, Ann, and for making a tutorial on how to customize them! I feel as though they complete my barn. <3 There's also that added bonus where whenever I happen to have a moment and forget which horse goes in which stall, there's a nameplate there to tell me, wooo!
It's available now, Lance! Sorry for the delay. :<
Thank you so much, Lexi! I think I may have to try building some lots for the community sometime.
