Bug Description:
Age of War Update 2 turned all my mares into stallions, and I’d really rather this was fixed. No new spawns are spawning as mares or geldings, just stallions. This is a repost of a bug that was flagged as ‘fixed’ with the Wight Dong fix, but I loaded in today and not only were my mares still packing heat, but I spawned a dozen horses with admin commands of several types and all of them were Stallions. I’d really like this fixed, please.
Bug Reproduction:
Loading a game post-update(Age of War S2, even with Hotfix 2). This happens with or without mods. We tested multiple combinations, including single-player vanilla, with no success. All horses spawned are stallions.
I mentioned as much in the initial report, but at your request I booted up once again with no mods, with the same result. Dongs everywhere. All horses, new and old, all have dongs. No geldings, no mares. It’s incredibly distracting. I even did single-player vanilla and got the same result. It’s clearly a base-game/client-side issue, and as you can see above, I’m hardly the only player who has it.
That is the most concise and hilarious thread title i’ve ever seen! I hate that you have to go through this inconvenience, but I’m glad it happened so that you were prompted to create this thread because it has given me, and I hope others, a great laugh. LOL. Hopefully they get it fixed soon. Happy trails exile.
There’s something I recently noticed that is probably related. I think the horses are still being flagged as either mares or stallions. But the male bits have somehow gotten flagged to show up regardless.
However, give them a potion of endowment and it will only work on some of the horses. The ones that are marked as stallions I’m guessing. The mares remain, well, sheathed.
There’s a box in a darfari camp near the big spider boss that usually has a stack or two of those potions. I noticed this happen when I threw them onto my horse for him to carry. (I’m a bit of a loot hoarder, so I tend to just grab everything and tuck it away somewhere. ) The first horse had results you expect when you put endowment potions in their inventory. But when I put them in the inventory of a second horse on a subsequent excursion, nothing happened other than the number in the stack of potions went down by one.
