hello! im pretty new to the game and even after reading guides, i'm still very lost on what ratings really mean, how to increase showing levels, and how to increase the bar stats i keep seeing "train them for [set amount of weeks] and then show them and see if theyre in the green" when i went to that view area, it was blank?? any help is appreciated, preferably dumbed down quite a bit for a newbie like me to understand pff <3 |

Ratings are the quality level of a horse. You increase showing levels by training your horses each week, and they'll do it automatically. Bar stats increase when horses are trained, and they'll do it automatically. You need to show horses before you'll be able to tell if they're in the green, nothing will show until then. |

I don't use the green thingy (I'm not saying you shouldn't - totally do!) and I enter horses into shows based on their bars. For every level, I want the horse to have 2 bars in the three relevant disciplines + at least one extra bar in one of them. E.g. if I had a lvl 5 horse and wanted to show it in dressage, I'd look at the relevant traits for that discipline (strength, movement, intelligence) and only enter the horse if it had at least 10 bars in 2 of those disciplines and 11 in the last one. All horses are different though, so if some keep leveling up before I get to show them, I decrease the bar for them and e. g. show them when they have only 10 bars in all 3 disciplines (if we're still talking about the lvl 5 horse). Also when they're weak in one trait and the other 2 are significantly higher, they balance the weak one out, so it could be e. g. 12+11+8 instead of 10+10+11. Once you'll get the results, try switching to the green stuff and see if that works for you. :) |

may i ask what decreasing the bar is? also, when horses lvl up do their bars restart? |

Welcome to the game :) If you've already entered horses into shows the same day, they won't show up in the showing-view so that could be the reason your page is blank. Horses normally don't loose bars. In some cases when you capture a wild horse it can happen if one trait is very weak but otherwise horses will only gain bars. They don't reset once they level up. The horse simply needs another x weeks of training (depending on its rating) to get competitive again. So a horse reaching the highest level (level 10) will have 20 bars in the traits relevant for that discipline. At it's birth a horse gets a certain amount of points (you will never see or know them, it's just in the game code) and these points will determin it's ratings. There are 6 ratings in the game (from worst to best): sub-par, average, superb, premium, elite and world class. The rating determins how fast a horse trains. So for example a horse rated Sub-Par in dressage will need a lot more training than a horse rated Elite in dressage until it's competitive. To be competitive you need to train it (once a week). Other than that you don't need to do anything but to wait a few weeks until your horse is ready to show. How long you have to wait depends on the horse's rating and gender. Geldings train faster than mares or stallions. For example your gelding Tsuki is level 2 and has had 2 weeks of training in all disciplines. He's got two bars in each trait but he needs twice as many to be competitive for level 2. As a SSS rated gelding he'll probable need 6-8 weeks of training to be competitive again. Your mare Soleil needs longer (probably 8-10 weeks) as mares train slower. Once they earn you more money than the entering fee (wich is 7th place or better), their showing results will be in green writing on the easy showing page (showing view). |
