It's a screenshot from the test version.

What is the test version? Is that like a test server?

The test version is an invite only site

Really?
Can you tell me more?

The test version is a Test Server where only players who know almost everything about the game are invited. I was invited and am playing right now lol. We get to see everything that happens before the get put on the real servers. VIP also get "dibs" to use Test server. When you are invited they give you 20 million equus and 1,000 passes.

Also,


Which says
To accommodate the new equipment on the play, all existing models and the Atalante pack and pack Centauri are removed from play equipment Also pack Poseidon are not available outside the irons pack .
thus ,

- All your horses wearing irons shop received a saddle pad instead
- All those who were at least one device on the black market have received the complete pack of Poseidon

In addition, equipment inventory will be gradually changed within minutes or hours to come:
- Your irons FG and FK Irons will be redeemed at a price of 50 Equus unit
- Your Atalante packs and packs Centauri will be transformed into pack of Poseidon
- Poseidon your equipment will be grouped to form packs of Poseidon (eg if you have 3 irons Poseidon Poseidon flanges 5 and 4 stools of Poseidon, you will receive 5 packs of Poseidon instead )

We apologize for any inconvenience during this operation.

You can read the release notes for more information on the equipment.

Good game
The Howrse Team

Here is a look at when you first enter Test Site.

So are you only invited by Howrse? And if so do they give you your ID and Password?

Fords Changed today

Yay! I can't tell if they did I have not had the update yet must see!

you can see the updated coat thoguh the Horse parade, the Coat they changed is the coat of the horse they give you of the day.

Side note...

How often does the Yest server recruit? I have a VIP account and have had it for the past 2-3 mths and have never gotten any kind of hit or invite.

yest = test sorry

Love the new wings. What breed was the 2nd to last? On the black Pegasus list?

That's a GV

The test server recruits only when they need more people to check for bugs. Usually when they are planning major overhauls. Anyone with VIP has a chance of being asked. Typically they pull off of Int due to the fact it is the largest server and they do not need 20 individual test serves running at once one for each version.

I typically am not even on test server because I have no desire to go back to having an untouched int account, and I cannot play two at once and focus time on both. Also, someone already posted all of those sneak peaks. like, four pages back.

I LOVE the new fjords!!!

I think they look the same

What's the other breed that changed today? There are two horses in the horse parade.

The new one has more definition where the muscles are. Especially around the barrel.

Is anyone else wondering how color bonus is going to work with the tack update? I would assume, and hope, that the P. Pack tack automatically all counts towards the same color to get the extra bonus? Anyone on the test server able to shed some light on that?

Only one horse changes a day. If you did not submit a horse yesterday it would still be there, yesterday's was the Icelandic.

I really like the new fjords, even if they've only been tweaked a little bit. Actually getting used to all the new coats the more I see them (it's nice to see the different coat colors, I think that helps a lot).

Is it just me, for are the thoroughbred foals now invisible except for their manes and tails?

hahaha Well, you can see the general body/hoof shadow too! Looking at it, I wonder if they were planning on updating the TB foal graphic? It looks like the contours are different to me.

I think they are updating the TB foal graphic (looks like some kind of loading error with the graphic), just noticed that the hanoverian & arabian foal graphics have changed as well (though maybe that was updated previously and i didn't notice, only noticed because wanted to see what was going on with the TBs). I like the new foal graphics, it's a nice change.

Lol, they must be updating all the foals today, and must have done it fairly quickly. I was glancing through my foals earlier and they were not done. Holst is invisible too. and ooohmygoodness the fjord foal looks a/dor/able.
