This is probably one of the most requested things for New Vegas - it's an obvious thing, horses in the Nevada wasteland. Unfortunately, Obsidian didn't give us the tools to make horses, any animations for either horses or riders, or a half dozen other things needed. They mostly used the assets from Fallout3, which was an urban environment where no one missed the horses. There has been one proof of concept video using some Oblivion stuff, but nothing that is really useable in game. This is one of those mods that looks like it should be doable, but has been a real problem to actually implement.

 

One problem is we can't use the Oblivion assets in New Vegas, so everything must be done from scratch, all new meshes, all new textures, all new animations for horse and rider, new animations for getting onto a horse, getting off of a horse, various animations for each speed, lots of animations for a horse without a rider, then with a rider, a way to keep a rider on a moving horse. As the horse is one object, and the rider another, they don't naturally move together unless you make special animations forcing horse and rider into one object. More things like slots for the horse saddle, horse armor, lots of horse artificial intelligence scripts etc. Lots more than most people realize.
