Animations in the Horse Hud!

Hey guys its Monday! I know you guys were all holding you breath to reading my connection today! 😛 So I thought I would write about a few things in the update that i dont think everyone really is aware of!

Like did you know there was a new side saddle animations put in the new hud ? Thats right connect your horse to the hud > riding> female> side saddle. Now you ladies will be riding in style!!!

Or how about the special animations that you can use from the hud? Like feed your horse a apple or brush their coat? I mean how cool is that!
All you have to do is is wear your HUD and rez your horse in world click the animations button on the hud and you will see two other animations brush and feed.

Brushing your horse

From the main menu select animations, be sure your horse is rezzed out and your not wearing it! If you select brush> then you will get two options Large and Regular. Men choose large, women choose regular. You will get a object named “Regular Horse Brush”
Wear the brush and you will get a pop up menu with different grooming options!
I have included a pic below of me brushing one on my prize shetlands!

Feeding your horse a apple!

From the main menu select animations, be sure your horse is rezzed out and your not wearing it! Then select Feed, you will get sent a object named “Green Amaretto Apple”. Simply wear the apple and you will get a menu option to choose your size avatar. I have included a picture of that as well!

Remember if you need the new Horse Hud you can click on your horse>help> get hud and it will send a hud to your objects folder.

So some super cool stuff hidden in the hud you guys try it out!! Well until next time Happy Breeding everyone!!

As everyone is aware Racing has been added to the Amaretto Horse experience!  However, the only way to discover the racing traits and all that goes along with them will be to breed it from the new starters.  That’s right! Racing will be a new hidden trait in the starters just like the other new stuff that is hidden in there.  Oopps I may have said too much! We will have more information coming regarding the racing very soon!  I hope everyone enjoys this update as we here at Amaretto have worked very hard at bringing new and exciting things to the Amaretto Community!

 

P.S. Due to all the excitement of the update CLASS AT ARU CANCELED TONIGHT 7-6-12 only

 

P.S.S. Horses must be version 3.2 and up in order to get a Showhorse.

Somethings you need to know about the updater:

1. It will not work if there is more than one updater out. It gives you

a message that there are 2 updaters out please remove one.

If you continue to try and update your K-9 It will give you another

error message and have you pick one updater up and reset the other.

(touch and wait 5 seconds to reset)

2. It will not update pregnant K-9s. The reason being the updater can

potentially abort the pregnancy. Waiting to update your pregnant K-9s

will not effect the K-9s functions, they will continue to eat, move,

animate etc. When they give birth to the kennel, then you can update

them. The kennel will be the old version and need to be updated when

birthed.

3. The updater will not work on sims with a high load. Dilation needs

to be above .65 and region fps must be above 25 for the updater to work.

You will get an error message that says the sim dilation is too low, we

have enclosed a sim monitor that will display these values for you. Just rez on your sim next to the updater.

 

Update Instructions:

Single Updater: Place the updater near the K-9 that isn’t updated and click the K-9 and click the update button. The K-9 will be updated and the settings will be the same as before the update process. ***DO NOT PICK UP K-9s OR THE UPDATER UNTIL IT HAS COMPLETED THE UPDATE PROCESS***

Bulk Updater: Place the bulk updater in the middle of your K-9 breeding area, click the updater and adjust the settings you want your K-9s to be set to after the update process, then click the update K-9s button on the updater menu. This updater has the ability to update all K-9s that are not v1.4 in an entire region. However, depending on sim performance it may only do the K-9s in a 96 meter radius. Do not remove the updater until it has completed updating all K-9s and the hover text above the updater reads FINISHED. ***DO NOT PICK UP K-9s OR THE UPDATER UNTIL IT HAS COMPLETED THE UPDATE PROCESS***

Updaters can also be found at all of the Amaretto store locations:

Hello Everyone!!!

It is Tuesday and i have some wonderful info for you all about the Barnyard birds.

As we get closer in beta to the final stages it is now the time that we come to you the community to give us your opinions and then allow you all to vote. What am i talking about you ask? Well since we are nearing the final stretch of the Barnyard Bird Beta and release is getting closer we do ask you all for your advice on what to name the points that you will get when sending them into Barnyard Sanctuary this means just like the horses we have Horse cents and for the k9s we have kennel cash (both were brought to us by you, the community) we do ask for you to send a NC in make sure you name it Barnyard Sanctuary Points Suggestion and send it to Mazelina Menna.

Most of you know JJ Cerna and Ancient Biscuit as the Amaretto Horse and K9 avis well Mazelina Menna is the Barnyard Bird avi and all sales of products that deal with the Barnyard Birds will be through her so just keep that in mind as we get closer 🙂 I really hope everyone is as excited as i am about the Barnyard Birds and that you all are ready for them to hit the grid so keep your eyes open 🙂

 

 

Hello Amaretto Community!!

Amaretto Breedables started out in Sept of 2010 with the release of the Amaretto Horses, since then we have had many requests for a certain trait so here it is. Amaretto is proud to announce that in the next horse update we will be introducing….. Horse Racing….Thats right the famous Amaretto Horses will now have the ability to train and race. As most of you all know Amaretto works very hard to give our community an exceptional product and we love to improve on the products as well. Now I will go into a little detail of things to come but will not give it all away.

Racing stats can be trained. However only one at a time and only one training session per 24 hour period. Amount of time a horse can be trained is determined by the horses Stamina Class (will be explained in more detail at a later date). Experience (XP) gained from training must reach 100% before moving on to the next class.

As we get closer to the update which will include the new racing feature to begin we will let you all know all info needed to be successful in training your horses. I do hope this will be something that all of our community can enjoy and we look forward to seeing what all the Amaretto community comes up with when using this wonderful addition to the Amaretto Horses.

Until Next Time Happy Breeding

Hello everyone, it’s that time of the week again! This week in my connection I’m going to talk about some changes that have been changed to the Amaretto Group Charters.
☆*•Home of Amaretto Breedables•*☆

This group is for POSITIVE chat and support for the Amaretto community. Join to get up to date info on the Horses, K-9s & Barnyard Birds. NO ADVERTISING OF ANY KIND (including freebies, giveaways or trading).
Social Network, Blogs, Forums, Support:
http://amarettobreedables.com/
http://connection.amarettobreedables.com/
http://forums.amarettobreedables.com/
http://support.amarettobreedables.com/

So what does this mean? What’s changed?

First and foremost, we have received a number of complaints about the negativity that exists in the group. At the end of the day we appreciate everyone’s feedback (the proper forum for this is to file a ticket under comments/suggestions). As of today there will be no more negativity/bashing/putting down Amaretto products. This means and includes such comments as “this horse is crap” or “I hate this trait”. Not only is it off putting for those in the Amaretto community but the owners, managers, CSR’s and design team put a lot of effort and time in the Amaretto products. So only POSITIVE chat will be expected in the Amaretto Groups going forward.

Next this is a gentle reminder that there is NO ADVERTISING in the main groups. Amaretto offers an advertising group for people to post in, offer online forums (with for sale sections) and paid advertising on our website to meet your advertising needs. Please be careful before clicking send on your spam that you’re not sending it to the wrong group.

Last and certainly not least…. There are no trading, freebies and or giveaways permitted in the main groups. We realize that there was some confusion about this and so we just wanted to clear that up today. No trading, no freebies and no giveaways.

The most important thing here is that we want to offer an enjoyable and pleasant experience for all. This is why these rules are in place. Together we can respect them and have a whole lot of fun together.

As always this connection was brought to you by the Letter P and the Number 14

 

Updater Version 3.2

I have been listening to all you guys in Group and wanted to talk
about some of the things you are concerned about with the new update
When you get your new updater if you are using the single updater
you will have to click on the updater before you begin updating your horses.
When using the bulk updater be sure to click updater and set the settings
as you wish in the drop down menu before you click the update button
on the drop down. Now you are ready to use the updaters.
If you have any problems at all please file a ticket and explain
what has happen.
After you have updated your horses and you have a 3.2 horse you
will notice on the menu under breeding the buttons Last Breed and Last Bundle.
This is a new feature that lets you know the last horse your horse has breed with.
This feature will work after you have had your 1st 3.2 bundle.
Also we have a feature now where you can enter a custom name
for your horse! This is Dakota’s favorite new feature. I hope this helps
all of you when you begin to update your horses. Happy Updating !!

What to do about Update Barns

When you are updating and the barn is still there but no horse, copy down the uuid that the barn produced in local chat and file a ticket to get your horse remade. If you didn’t catch the number, and you know the name of the horse, we can also remake the horse.

 

Then just delete the barn, as it has no information in or on it that will be helpful to us in remaking your horse.
