Did they remove the white arabian horse?
I tested this out on both Xbox and PC. I'm on chapter 2 on both and in neither will the horse spawn. I've slept at an inn, done a couple of missions, camped, etc. and nothing gets the horse to spawn.

Did they remove it or change its location? Is there some new requirement that I must do first before it spawns?

Try in chapter 3? I mean some stuff isn't available right at the start of the game. Like its a lot harder to hunt moose in the main story in comparison to the epilogue

Ur probably not looking in the right location - some on-line sources are wrong (imagine that).

This one has the right location based on the player location shown on map - right next to the trail on the shore of the lake. (on a couple occasions, it might have been on the slope of the hill towards the busted shack).

If i'm in game later i'll do a test, but i've snagged that horse in Chapter 2 many times.

Actually I just got a female white arabian in chapter 2 just now. It was in the northwest part of Lake Isabella. You may have looked in the wrong spot. I went to the area I found it and at first it was not there so I camped and ate fish and then slept and when I woke up it showed up.

When you look at the lake you should see a tiny square on the map near lake isabella. The horse appeared near that but right up next to the water for me. I have also found one right up next to the mountains

Why do you want an arabian anyway? There are better horses like the mustang. Maybe it's not as fast but it is phat and hardy.

Yeah I've looked all over this lake and there's no sign. No tracks or anything. I've tried many of the solutions online. I found it here in a play through a long time ago so I know the location for sure, but it's been so long since I last played that's why I asked if they changed things.

It's very frustrating to say the least. I've wasted a ton of time and I'm just about ready to say ♥♥♥♥ it.

May end up just saying ♥♥♥♥ it and find the next "best".

You can get the Black Arabian in St. Denis at night, it has better stats than the white one. Make sure you completed Hosea's hunting mission, I'm not sure that horse shows up before that mission is complete.

You Never Need a "best" horse in story mode - but sometimes you want a "better" one.

For me, i always prefer a horse with Normal Handling, since the Elite Handling Arabians feel a bit jittery with their agile response, Also, i prefer horses with higher stamina.

So, in the early Chapters, i always look for a Mustang or Appaloosa, or even the original Tennessee Walker. The few spotted appaloosa has very good stats and can often be stolen from a small camp.

After that, the Silver Dapple Pony (which is a Missouri Fox Trotter), and the actual Missouri Fox Trotter from Stables in Lemoyne near Dewberry Creek/

I bought one there at the stable. It wasnt that expensive.

It was racist white straight male, they had to cancel it

But it will be replaced in the next patch with a rainbow colored unicorn that's non-binary
