Horses should be rescaled there pretty redonkless frist thing me and my freinds did was laugh at there size

[Midn8t]

I made a char that is pretty tall tallest human can be in game so that probly bet 7’ that being case the leg on horse comes up to my head and the horse head and neck are pearing through my secound story window its funny redonkless how huge and out of place the scale on horses are compared to every thing elese in game lol.

I mean if leg is 7 foot talk up to my chars head and the back is around 10 foot tall then neck has to be anther 10 feet it seems sense the horse is litterly looking thro secound story windows and above the top of my wall at times horses height has to be around 25 to 30 feet by scale of every thing elese ? most horses there heads come to about same height as a tall human. war horses are more like gypse horse or draft horses shorter then average but very bulky

its even funnier when you put them next to wheel of pain there bigger then my wheel lol here thing about medieval hroses

The average size of a medieval horse was around 120 to 140 centimeters tall so it is probable that they were taller than this. By looking at horse armor from the Middle Ages , scholars have estimated that a destrier was around 150 to 160 centimeters tall .

so at most a warhorse should be around 5.3 feet tall which bring its head to head level with average size human in the game which back then average size was 4 to 5 feet. which bring height to more proper scaling instead of scaling of a giant animals thats taller then almost anything elese that is in game other then giants and dragons currently horse is almost same height as elphant in the game lol.

also why can horsephant that we own run over elphants in game. ?

Maybe a bug? I have seen an image of an oversized horse, could the fact that during character creation you changed the height? If I am reading it right you maxed out the height? Is the horse then generated to be inline with your character height and has obviously, in the best FC way, overdone it?

As regards horse size in the real world, I used to live in a very rural area, the shire horses there made normal horses look like ponies, we seem to have three types in game, standard, swift and sturdy, shame they are all the same size, hopefully FC will make the three types more visually unique in a future update.

I would just like to point out that The Hyborian Age, the setting of Conan exiles and the Conan universe, is a fictional period of human history set before written history. Howard never gave any real dates for when the hyborian age was but most people estimate this sets the world, at the very least, at 10,000 bce. So current measurements of people or animals isn’t really applicable for how the world of Conan should look.

@Midn8t

which back then average size was 4 to 5 feet.

Ancient people were indeed on average a bit shorter than we are today, but nowhere near that much shorter. Even going back to the Cro-Magnons 40,000 years ago, they still seem to have averaged around 5’7".
