[Info] The Retired Coat Gallery

This thread is here to show off your Retired Coats. This is not the place to post non retired coats. **The two exceptions would be coats that have been pulled (brief discussions) and the pre release coats.

REMEMBER:

******** absolutely no sales talk, no talk about spares or how many extras of a copy you got and selling them to fund your RC habit this is just a place to talk RCs

* although links and graphics are ok on this thread, they are not allowed normally on public forums

* any negative or unkind comments on artists or coats (or anyone!) will be removed, and depending on the case, it might mean an instant forum ban.

* DO NOT use this as a place to sell your horse/coats-if you feel the need to break this rule, it will mean an instant forum ban...

** Sales ads are NOT allowed in any public forums. Asking for spare coats will now be considered a sales ad. This includes stating that you plan to sell a coat, or point out coats for sale in sales.

* Do not use this place as a spot for rants or complaints-About coats/BG/or each other.

* This is not the place to ask players to price your coats, or to ask others the worth of a coat, you can check uses on your own by hovering your mouse over the gray apple and price it from there.

* This is not the place to bring up the subject of stolen images. Keep in mind that the rules of the BP used to be very different, and many old coats are from that time.
There is not any reason to bring that up, or report the coats.

*Please do not do a coat countdown for soon to retire coats.

* Please do not post coats that are currently in the GA and have either not retired, or will never retire.

* Please do not post coat/bg combos or ask opinions on them, except following coat release.

* Some coats may be removed in the future, whether that be for problems with the coats itself or just because they're clearing room on the server to allow other coats to be uploaded - if you're buying retired coats, please keep that in mind. If you want a permanent copy, I would recommend saving the graphic to your computer

* How to discover who many uses a New GC coat will retire-There is now a coat countdown in the GA, and it will show how many have been used and how many uses there are left.

** There is now a new creations directory which shows all coats. Go to Community>>>Directories>>>Creations>>>Click more criteria, and on the left hand side is a gold and silver apple. Click the silver apple and search to see all retired coats.

* To see who created/how many uses/name/or if you have it already of a RC coat, simply click on the silver apple, and it will tell you.

*** Posting links to other player's coats is NOT allowed and can mean a forum ban.

*#*#*#* If players feel the need break the main topic rules, such as sales ads/coat countdowns/spares-you can expect an instant forum ban without any warning prior to it *#*#*#*

Does anyone have tips for securing the limited/retired coats without breaking the bank? I missed a TON of the coats I wanted in this drop because they come out in the middle of the night where I live so it's not feasible for me to be awake at that time, and then they're too expensive to obtain through the sales tab a lot of the time for people who did them multiple times for multiple horses. Is there a limit to how many times a single player can use the same coat? And if not, why? It seems that would prevent a lot of the scalping in sales tabs on these coats.

From my understanding during the vip early release- players can only get one copy per coat. During the regular release players can buy multiple copies of each coat as they wish.

Also, as I was searching I found <a href="https://www.howrse.com/elevage/fiche/?id=4383649">this horse</a> while going through the sales tab, is this what would be considered a pre-CS coat since you can see where the graphic cuts off and what seems like loose pixels??

I’m not able to get the link to work…? I’ve tried it several ways.
Pre CS coats have a dusty looking background.

The only way to get coats for cheap is apply them yourself, either during regular or early release. Even if you miss some coats af early release you'll have a second chance at the regular one.

And yes, the early release for VIPs does have a limit of one copy per coat per player, and only half the copies are available at that time. Many of us would like to see limits applied to regular release, but we don't know if that'll ever happen or not

I just noticed that the Tench donkey has a perfect matching background from a previous release.

Does anyone know if this coat is an RC or not, or what it might be called, maybe even who created it? It belonged to a horse I had that sadly went to heaven some time ago now. I've never seen the coat again since though and would LOVE to have it again! I had bought her with this coat already on when I had her originally.





I feel like I'm spamming this thread today default smiley (lol) my bad y'all. I'm trying top research and look into RC's and such and this thread is the best!

Thank you SO much! I'm still learning artists and styles and such. The whole RC collecting thing was always out of my reach as a younger player, but now as an adult with disposable income it would be so fun!!! default smiley xd

It's not allowed to post links to other player's horses, only to your own. Just a warning for precaution, so you don't get penalised. Be careful.

Not directly, no.

If you have the VIP perks to filter for coats you don't have, and the one that allows you to filter by number of copies, you can find the coat you want, if it's in there.

I use those two filters in combination with the species filter, to find coats.
