Rideable Sheep* v1.0 - yffub
------------------------------------------
* Rideable Ram, technically, but sheep is understood more universally.

Free to a good home, Baaab the rideable ram currently resides outside of Skingrad, around the orchards.

Baaab has an unlimited warranty. Should the worst befall poor Baaab, he will be replaced at no cost. Please allow up to three days for Baaab's replacement to arrive at Skingrad.


------------------------------------------
Known Issues
------------------------------------------
The PC's legs briefly drop below ground during the mount/dismount animations. I can think of two ways to fix this. Either Baaab could be enlarged to be more horse sized or the animation could be edited. I have no desire to make Baaab bigger and I have no clue about editing animation files.

Baaab can't walk backward. This is an evolutionary shortcoming of all sheep of Tamriel. Take it up with the Nine.


------------------------------------------
Compatibility Issues
------------------------------------------
Any mod that modifies the default horse behavior AIs will affect Rideable Sheep, although it should not break it.

Any mod that modifies the default sheep textures will affect Rideable Sheep, although again it should not break it.

Any mod that adds meshes to your mount, such as barding or a fancy saddle, might affect Rideable Sheep, and will probably look awful.

Baaab will not wear armor. It pulls at his wool and hurts him. Just don't do it, okay?

I have no idea if the saddle bag mods out there will work with Rideable Sheep. If not, it should not be too hard to adapt; Baaab is just a horse in sheep's clothing.

Version History
------------------------------------------
v1.0
Initial release, 29-SEP-2006.

Credit
------------------------------------------
99.9% of the credit for this mod goes to 'yarharhar', author of the "Making Ridable Creatures" tutorial at the Construction Set wiki, located here: 'cs.elderscrolls.com/constwiki/index.php/Making_Ridable_Creatures'. I simply followed the tutorial step by step, and 30 minutes later Baaab was born. Without their tutorial and animation melding application, this mod would have never happened.

The original sheep models and animations and the horse animations all belong to Bethesda.

100% of the blame goes to me. I think riding around on a sheep is funny.
