Thank you, it works as expected, it lacks some "magic touch" to make it stand out like a unicorn because those spots on the back leg look uninteresting. thanks the same. Although I already have another one for summon horse, I'm going to leave this one because I've already zmerge in others. Thanks for the effort and work
Mod is great etc etc, but one thing, can this be obtained in easier way, or is there any video of exact location ? My gf wanted an unicorn to ride, and i linked this mod, but, right now we are 600 km away from each other and i simply cant find it by telling her, turn left right, jump etc...
Downloaded this mod when it came out, but didnt have the time to test it until today (even found the book without spoilers!) and the problem is that theres no unicorn anywhere when i use the spell outdoors. Its active in effects as summon... But nothing in front of me. Any ideas what might be the issue? Anyway, like the look of it in the pics ;)
EDIT: Tried again and now its working.. So nevermind, thank you for the awesome work! :)
Probably. And that my computer hates me for doing stuff to it ;P Just reloaded the game and it worked, should have done that thing before i wrote, so sorry, its not your mod thats any issue, its my constant tinkering :P
Currently unable to try this out, so I just wanted to ask: Does this summon tie up a slot for your conjurations, or does the unicorn become a permanent fixture once summoned?
It takes up a slot but there's no point in having it summoned during combat anyway -- it runs from the fight. So you summon it to ride, you ride it, a fight starts, you either (1) stay on the unicorn and use weapons since there is no mounted magic or (2) get off the unicorn and it probably disappears immediately since the summon time has probably ended, but otherwise it runs away and disappears when you summon something else...then you summon it again once combat ends.
Is there a way to add the tome to your inventory? I looked all over the the dungeon and never found it anywhere. So I thought maybe it and the other unicorn mod weren't working but I found that one where it's supposed to spawn just fine. :<
Thank you for this mod, the Unicorn has become my character's go-to mount summon. I like Arvak but I've always been reluctant to summon an obviously undead horse in front of the local necromancy-hating Nords.
Originally I was following this leaked picture of an ESO unicorn: https://elderscrolls.net/media/2018/01/gp_crwn_mounts_masquedunicornsteed_1x1.jpg I found out that's supposed to be a "false" unicorn, it's just wearing a helmet, but I liked the spots so I kept them.
To be clear though, I don't think the lore ever specifies the color of a unicorn. That's just how the one unicorn in Oblivion was depicted.
Consider trolls. In ESO, they are shown with long horns. In previous games, they don't have those. Does that mean ESO is going against the lore? No, it's just a different depiction, the lore never specified that trolls don't have long horns.
Lastly, I'll mention that the Oblivion unicorn did have black spots all over it's body, they were just smaller: https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/elderscrolls/images/c/c4/Unicorn.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20170325220235
Oblivion's unicorn isn't spotted, its speckled. What I mean is that your attention isn't drawn to them unless you're explicitly looking for it, whereas on your unicorn, they immediately grab your attention and it makes it hard to take the unicorn in (the fact that they're mostly concentrated around the back end doesn't help).
Anything originating from ESO should be taken with a grain of salt. Even if Bethesda says its canon, they didn't develop it, and its really unclear how involved they actually were, and how much Zenimax knew about the game lore. In fact, there are a few noticeable errors in the game, most notably the climate of Cyrodil.

we got the spell, we left the cave,
but its not summoning anything, there is a sound, a blue glow but nothing is conjured :_:
I have tried it with Vanilla too, and it still won't load. Any idea what could be wrong?
