The mod «The Old Horses (Old Horse)» enables players to utilize the classic horse model and textures. As this is merely a resource pack, you can also earn achievements in Minecraft Pocket Edition while playing on Xbox Live. This is perfect for those who prefer the old horse model over the new one introduced in later versions of MCPE prior to 1.2.6. In the future, this mod may cease to function if Mojang decides to alter how horse data is stored in the file system. However, for now, you can easily use it, and it will work flawlessly.
