I’ve barely recovered from before and now my wrist is hurt. :/ Not sure if it’s a tear or a sprain..something small though. I will need to rest it for some time, so I won’t be able to post much or edit the site over the next week or so. I’m so sorry. This is my last week to really edit the site too. I wish I could do more, but typing with one hand gets tiring, time consuming, and annoying.
I will try to use this time for making layouts, as that’s less typing. However, I won’t be able to make many animations at the moment…I’ll try to keep you guys posted. :)
I can make animated signatures and I’m already all caught up. I added a new layout that you can view here: Breeder Layouts

I felt the need to put up a new post on new features on the website. :)
New Navigation:
First off, there’s the new navigation. Thank you to everyone for being so patient with it. I apologize if this affected your experience with browsing the site. All is well now with the new drop-down menu. I suppose I will add a new poll for those of you who have already voted on the previous poll, with the messed up menu. :p
New Layouts:
Since I had more time this week, I was able to create layouts the day that they were ordered. I also, surprisingly, had some spare time to create two new pre-made, quality layouts, with scrolling text boxes.(Check them out!) Feel free to comment if you are using one currently! :) Or if you have any ideas, I would love to hear them!
New Page:
I added a Contact page so it’s easier to message me directly. :)
Updates this week:
- Horse chart coding
- Maybe work on the side bars a bit..add some more features to them :)
- At least one new layout will be added!
Again, thank you so much for your patience! It’s because of you that I get inspired to improve the site! <3

As you can probably see above, I coded a new navigation for HowrseHelper. I will be removing the side navigation for more space. If you bookmarked some pages, you may not have access to them anymore as I made new pages to organize the site more. (Example: Customized Layouts isn’t just HowrseHelper.com/customized-layouts – you now need to go to howrsehelper.com/layouts/customized-layouts.) What do you think? Leave your opinion in the new poll!
***Important: If you cannot view the navigation bar in a straight line, please let me know in the comments. Make sure to state what browser you are using. Or, it you can view it correctly, please let me know what browser you’re on. Thanks***
All should be well now! :D

Update 3.3.0 came a bit earlier than expected. With this upgrade, there were a few surprises that we didn’t know of.
There are some little things like..
- your notepad is now in your messaging system
- your equus reserve has a break between every thousand
- the morale and energy gain will be displayed when you put your horse in a meadow
However, there are some major changes like morale loss from competitions, the objectives, and removal of the vet.
Morale loss:
- This only applies to players with more than 30 days of seniority. 30 days will have the lowest impact of morale and it will change and get higher up to 120 days of seniority. From there, that rate will stay the same for anyone over that
- If the horse already have less than 80% of morale, there will be no loss from competitions
- The horse will lose morale due to it’s placing (first places won’t loose any, but the other placings will. Second place has the least loss and fifth has the most.
- Also, if the horse already has high morale, it will lose more than a horse with a lower morale.
Objectives!
- This replaces the achievements and can now be found in your office.
- Everyone is back at zero and this will also bring gifts
- Only three are shown at a time and there is a total of 30 to complete
- Once you complete one, there will be a validate button to the right that you can click to show the next objective
Wanna know what the objectives are? Take a look at these pages:
- Objective Levels 1 to 10
- Objective Levels 11 to 20
- Objective Levels 21 to 30
Removal of the Vet
- The job position is removed this week
- On August 3rd, foaling costs will drop to 500e each time, the prestige gain from the vet will changed to boarding percentage and number of horses. Now 20 horses must be boarded in your center in order to receive full boarding points
- Lastly, the temporary employees will change from costing 100e for the first one, 200e for the second, and so on. This won’t come till after the August 3rd updates.
