Does this allow it to where the Dragonkiller cart to have the followers in the back and have 4 people riding or something? I'm trying to get me and 4 followers on two carts or with horses.
I actually got it to work with the SRM Companion cart, Dragon Killer Cart, and Gypsies Eyes caravan. All it takes is the Convenient Herding mod as well. First, you get all three carts together, then you pick up the herding equipment from a stable master and set up your camp with the herding flag. When the flag is placed, carry around the backpack and gather at least three horses, all of which will eventually herd to the flag. Sit on each horse individually to set it as the active horse, then tether it to a cart. Once all of your carts are tied to a horse, grab up the herding flag and voila! All of your herded horses will follow you, taking the carts with you!
Add this with any mod that allows multiple companions, and you now have the makings of a Dovaharmy!
Since I prefer playing as a Khajiit character, you've given me a wonderful idea to make my own caravan!
Better Horses seems to be abandoned, but I will try to make an awesome caravan with Convenient Horses, Horse Branding, Horse Herding and Horsemen mods. And have a few guard dogs as well. :-)
I remember being able to use CH with Dragonkiller cart, but I'm not sure everything works the same way here. Of course, there is the horse-inventory by CH and DKC, there is the follow command... I never used the other cart mod, tho, and the test with CH and DKC was a long time ago. Both mods were updated numerous times. Anyway, this is a nice idea. I'm gonna download it and endorse you asap, because it looks and should work really nice even with CH...
Out of interest, was there a reason other than preference that you worked this out using Better Horses rather than Convenient Horses? I was planning on backing up my Skyrim directory to install a bunch of new mods next week anyway, but if the result using CH is crash-tacular knowing that in advance would save me some time
I'm not 100% sure on this yet, so people don't kill me if it doesn't work, but I can't see a reason that Horse Branding + Horsemen ( a mounted combat mod ) couldn't be added as well. You'd end up with two carts and a couple of horses following you ( in theory up to as many as followers can fit in the carts ) and you could dismount and mount up on secondary horses without having to do anything at all with the carriages, leaving them behind while you fight, then dismount and head off again without having to do anything but get in the carriages.

Yeehaw, giddyup!

I don't have the time to test that right now, but please do tell about the result here if anyone does ;-)
I may be wrong, but could that work?
