Most dished face
So i noticed that the majority of horses end up with a roman nose, or a barely straight profile. Wanting to breed some arabians with a more arabian head, how dished can the horse model go? Is what you see on Arabians in the AC the max dish/forehead size you can get?
I thought that years ago there was a random horse generator, confo slider to play with and see what you could get but I might've misremembered lol.

We did used to have a tool with sliders like you remember, it's been offline for a long while but I have plans to bring it back eventually. Until then here is a screenshot of the most dished face I'm currently able to create with the model we have now.

Re: Most dished face
Thank you!
So on the homepage it shows the example breeds with the color preview, is the arabian in that model possible or was it edited? Tried to eyeball it and it looks like the maxed dish you posted, + shortest face, +shortest jaw, thin jowl? I know the neck arch is the posing feature
I know a LOT of, in real life, what makes some faces look more extreme is a big ol' forehead (jibba is the civilized term lol)
Is forehead size attatched to ear size? Neither are listed on comformation and I'm getting some very bunny eared arabians with nicer faces lol.

I didn't actually add in a "big forehead" gene when I first setup the horse images but I've realized over the years that I should have. I have plans for updates to the images in the future and will hopefully be adding in more more genetic conformation features like this.
As for the Arabian on the homepage yes I do believe that horses head was created from in-game horses, although as you noted the neck has been posed which isn't in the game (yet!). It's possible I may have been using an early version of the horse image generator that doesn't work 100% identical to the current one though, as it does appear the black horse has a shorter face than the current horses are capable of having.
