    [​IMG] Is there a way to make horses actually MOVE in this game? I keep on adding a horse into my party(Ctrl+Q), but the damn thing won't move, it only changes direction...

    I think the farm animals, like the drunkards sitting down in the bars and the people sleeping on beds are little more than killable moving scenery. Sorry dude.

    TeamBG people are planning a DragonLance mod that will include rideable horses as far as my information is correct.

    It is only fitting that horses are problematic in BG2..... as always in D&D PnP version I was always losing horses - if I wasn't killing them for food... or using them as cover in a shoot-out.... then I was tying them up before going down into a dungeon and they were NEVER alive by the time I got out!

    Sure you can make them move in BG2. Just use Near Infinity or some other script editor and change the AI scripts for whatever animal you want. If you want to could ride a cow in to town... :rolling:

    script won't prevent it from moving. it has "low" avatar which don't have the animation frames for moving. as well as all sleeping, siting and so one people, or begars or whatever. it probably saves performance.
