Roach his tail is missing

+
Why does killing roach through the console fix this issue but reinstalling the game and starting fresh doesn't?
 
Yeah there are other ways to "kill" raoch, even without the command, for console players. For example if you have a big mountain near water (mostly in Skellige) you can try to sprint/Jump down from there in the direction of the water, it happend to me a few times that roach "died" (disapeared), that should reset him,too :)


I wonder though, if CDPR will be able to reset the horse in 1.23 automaticle once, because it seems that if you HAVE the bug already, you have to reset Roach to get his tail back, that's why everyone is saying that the fix didn't work :p
 
My Roach's tail is still also missing.
Before the latest patch, everything was going fine till one time when i called her over, and no tail. I'm in Velen, and she had her tail there till that one time, and nothing I've done has brought it back since.

I do have the debug console (there is only 1 updated one on Nexus at the moment), and the killhorse command does not work for me at all. I've typed every possible combination of letters in there, both while mounted and unmounted, and Roach will not die. So i cannot 'reset' her.
Can anyone help me with this? Does anyone have any idea why that command won't work?
I only really have this for the free camera, so i don't use other commands. The only other one i've used is to have a shave, and that works.
Just cannot kill Roach!

For me, the missing tail is rather random, as she's both had it and not had it in White Orchard and Velen. I started a new playthrough. it also somehow came back in White Orchard, and i hadn't done anything to make it so.
So i have no idea what's going on.
If it is an armor issue, then maybe simpler for the Reds to just change the armor or remove it altogether?
 
guys, you need to realize that Roach lost his tail fighting the Hunt! he deserves purple heart metal, not to be killed!!!
 
Roach went from a missing mane to a missing tail from patch to patch. Even with this 1.22 update that mentioned a fix for her tail, it did not fix it for me, sadly she's still tailless. :(
 
After wearing Saddle from Undvik Roach mane is still missing in the half of its size.

The command is "KillHorse()" without quotes.

Yep i know. It didn't do a thing. My Roach was invincible.

But i uninstalled and re-installed the console, and tried again, and this time the command worked. And omg i felt so terrible doing it! She just lay down! :(
But she came back with her tail! So yay!

So for me, killing Roach did work. I saved my game right after she came to me. I really hope i don't have to kill her again, it was aweful.
 
Am I the only one who has a Roach who is missing its mane only in Toussaint since patch 1.22? I am not one to complaint about every shit... but this is really breaking the immersion. :confusion:
 
Same here, I haven't felt like reporting any problems before Roach's new haircut (This and that armor buisness..) At least you might be able to fix the mane temporarily by switching the saddle, but I'm still missing the tail too... Then again, I'm still on 1.21, hope ths will be fixed when 1.22 hits console.

Roach has a tail on every area map for me ... as long as I keep the Caed Myrkvid saddle on which shows a braided tail.

Only in Toussaint can I remove the saddle and see a standard tail, flicking normally. However, if I remove the saddle everywhere else, no tail.
 
You provided me with a temporary solution here... thank you very much!!!

Somehow the Ravix Saddle creates the bug...

We don't know what the cause of the bug is, but it's definitely not one specific saddle. I've only used vanilla saddles since 1.21 and I hit the bug right away and haven't found even a temporary fix that works, so my roach is a bald donkey :(
 
Can people stop referring to Roach as a he? She definitely wouldn't be pleased about it! Roach is a mare guys, it's in the lore and even appears on the loading screen info!
 
Skellige saddle causes the mane to partially disappear. If I unequipt this saddle from inventory, the mane becomes full.
All Toussaint saddles changes the tail. Later when you put on a non Toussaint saddle, the tail doesn't revert to default and looks weird. But if you equipt the Toussain saddle and again unequipt it from inventory, the tail becomes good.
So, you'd think after getting the mane and tail back if you save, it will be all good. Not so.
So I suspect it is related to how the game saves roaches appearance and this is what needs to be fixed.
