Importance of updating your breedables!!!

Filed Under : Barnyard Bird Information,Horse Information,K9 Information,Miscellaneous by Tmzasz Luminos
Jan.20,2013

Hello everyone its Tmzasz here and today I would like to quickly talk about a very important topic, Updating your breedables and why it is important! First off let me begin with the most important reason to always update:

Amaretto does not support older versions. What this means is that say you have a horse that’s gotten sick and wont accept a healing kit or eating its way out of hunger, well this horse happens to be a 3.2 version horse. Well when we repair the horse we always send it back at the most current version which in this case is 3.5. So say you have a horse that has glitched for example or you are super partial to the old 1.3 style horses, in this case we do not support the glitch and when remade it will come back at the most current version and as it is supposed to be and the same applies to older versions like stated above.

Next important reason to update to the latest version:

The latest version of any of our breedables always has the most current bug fixes and generally are better in many areas, some bug fixes in the updates are not always apparent but they happen in the background to make your breeding experience more enjoyable!!!

Now possibly the reason most people update is to be breedable to the new starters that come out with an update as they have to be of the same version to breed!

Now you can see why its always best to make sure you update to the latest version of our breedables 🙂

You have permissions to read this blog

Happy Friday everyone! I hope everyone had a great week and that your breedables dropped something amazing for you!
I want to talk today about what permissions on your breedables should be. When selling your horse, K-9 or Barnyard Bird all you need to do is click the sale box and insert the price. No other permissions need to be changed. This also applies to zero sales or transferring your horse to a friend so they may ride it. If you are using the Firestorm viewer you will have to set the permissions to original because the default is copy.
If you do buy a breedable and receive a folder containing the contents of the breedable, this means that someone changed those permissions and you will need to file a ticket with us to have your breedable repaired.
This is another good thing to be sure you check when purchasing breedables. Always make sure you check who you are buying from and if the permissions are set properly. I hope this helps prevent some of the issues with permissions. Until next time, Happy Breeding everyone!

Double Points for Christmas!!

Filed Under : Amaretto Announcements,Barnyard Bird Information,Horse Haven,K9 - Puppy Paradise by Tmzasz Luminos
Dec.23,2012

While in the Holiday spirit, or while he was in the holiday spirits I don’t know which, but sometime during the Holiday Office party here at the ranch Jaysin bumped the Horse Haven vendor which toppled into the Puppy Paradise Vendor that went flying into the Bird Sanctuary Vendor, omg was it a mess but now as a gift to everyone Haven, Paradise & Sanctuary points are DOUBLED!

Everyone at the Amaretto Ranch would like to wish the entire Amaretto Community a Happy Holiday!

1. If you are purchasing horses/bundles, K-9s/kennels, or Birds/nests to haven you must re-rezz them so that you will get the points and not the person who previously owned them!

2. The double points will begin tonight December 23, 2012 at 11:59 pm SLT and end at 11:59pm Slt, on December 25th.

3. You can check your points at any Amaretto location by using the balance inquiry button, or you may visit the haven sim and use the chess piece(for horses) the fire hydrant (for K-9s) or the giant Henny Penny (for Birds).

4. Please be sure when you are using the vendor that you are choosing the item you wish to purchase as returns and exchanges will not be given.

5. Horses must be above version 1.3 to receive double points for horse haven. K-9s and Barnyard Birds must all be 1.0 or higher.

Happy Holidays to all!!

Helpful Tips for Breeders/Sellers

Filed Under : All,Barnyard Bird Information,Horse Information,K9 Information by Josie
Nov.16,2012

TGIF! Hope everyone had a great week with many wonderful bundles, kennels and nests! I have seen many beautiful ones posted in the groups! I asked in the Main group what I should write about today, and the community suggested “Tips for Breeders/Sellers”! So with the help of a few long time breeders/sellers I have compiled what I think is a very handy list of tips that can hopefully assist breeders of all kinds!
Breeders/Sellers are responsible for their 3rd party sales and purchases. Amaretto does not get involved in that aspect of the market so one of the main rules to always abide by is this:
Seller/Buyer Beware! If it sounds too good to be true it probably is!
(These tips are in no particular order, they’re all important in their own way)
• As with anything whether it’s RL or SL always remember Customer Service is a key to a successful business. Be nice to those repeat customers!
• SPAM, SPAM, SPAM! Not that kind of Spam, the advertising kind. You can join the Amaretto Advertising Group at any store location, but you can also check profiles and find other advertising groups that way.
• Remember to double and triple check that you actually set the breedable for sale. I know I’ve priced them and forgot to click that button myself too.
• If your breedable is out for sale, I know many who say it is a sales deterrent if the breedable is set to pet food. For sales purposes most find it valuable to have the animals on breedable food.
• Do NOT put your breedables out for sale if it is in a red ban lines area. People can’t buy things if they can’t get to them.
• Asking for pricing help usually does not get much help, the best suggestion you can get from anyone about pricing would be to go look around at different markets and see what things are selling for.
• It’s very important to be realistic with your prices though. Remember the market changes according to the time of the month. This doesn’t mean you shouldn’t set your prices and stick to them it just means you should be willing to adjust. Never have a panic sale.
• Try to create a nice display at your store, one that will attract buyers, or at least make it easy for the buyers to see what you are selling.
Now if you’re selling your horse at auction here are the biggest things to remember:
• Do your notecard at home before you leave for the auction. Include the full UUID even if it’s a bundle get it from the description line while in edit mode.
• Set the price on the breedable at home before you leave and set it for a very high price so it can’t be swiped for 10L when you go to set it for sale.
• Ensure you are wearing the correct tag before you rez anything.
• Always check auction rules before you rent your panels as different auctions have different rules.
I hope these tips are helpful to all breeders and if you see someone in the groups asking for help, link this blog to them!
Until next time, Happy Breeding everyone!

Nov.5,2012

Monday Monday, so good to me! Hey everyone! Hows it going?
I thought it was time to let you see what the Manager of Amaretto may do on any given Monday!

Well here we go my first stop was this morning i had to rush from home just to teach my 9 AM SLT class at Amaretto Ranch University! Big shout outs to all my peeps that were there! I also checked the calendar for the next class! Everyone is invited to ARU and to the class held daily there so check it out! Oh and don’t forget the newly expanded Amaretto Museum!

http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Amaretto%20Ranch%20University/128/117/22

On to the next stop I got a call about a ruckus at boomtown! So I rushed over there turns out it was just a few people practicing at the race track! Since I was there I check out all the shops that are available for rent to sell your breedable related items! This is also where Club Amaretto gets a little crazy on the weekends……… well at least thats what ive heard! Maybe ill see you around there sometime!

http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Amaretto%20Ranch%20Boomtown/119/138/21

I walked across the bridge from Boomtown and found myself at the haven sim. This is where you can check and purchase things with your Horse Cents, Kennel Cash, and Henny Pennys. There are lots of cool things you can purchase here like those Haven horses so that you can breed for the new Wings! Just in case you wondering don;t worry Henny doesn’t bite! Be sure to say hello and tell her Ava sent u!

http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Amaretto%20Ranch%20Haven/138/72/23

All this traveling i needed a break! So I strolled back over the bridge over to Barnyard Birds store, I took a rest by this really cool kiosk that is at all of our locations. You can get cool stuff from the kiosk like huds, calendars, landmarks and lots of great Amaretto info. I just took a break and watched the big ships sail in and out of the shore! If your looking for Barnyard Bird items this is the place to be!

http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Amaretto%20Barnyard%20Birds/155/71/21

You know what happened next right? Those darn rooster started making noise and scarred me! I thought i might have better luck resting and the k-9 park. I headed over that way theres a small obstacle course located in front of the store. If your k-9s need treats or food the Amaretto Ranch K-9s Main Store one stop shop for sure! Watch out tho when you land I think some of those Barnyard Birds followed me over!

http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Amaretto%20Ranch%20K9s/74/107/22

I ended my tour of Amaretto Sims with my last stop the Amaretto Ranch Breedables Main Store where I did run into a copule friends picking up some horse supplies. This sim just looks awesome with a field and a track! The scenery is certainly nice to look at! You can pick up anything you need for your horses at this place and run into the occasional breeder or friend!

Do You Know Your Barnyard Birds Consumables??

Filed Under : Barnyard Bird Information,Consumables Corner by Josie
Oct.31,2012

Happy Wednesday Everyone!!
I wanted to touch on Amaretto Barnyard Birds Consumables

Barley Bird Diet
Barley Bird Diet is the food that keeps your Barnyard Birds healthy and able to breed when its time. Without a source of food the Barnyard Birds will become sick and will need to either eat their way out of starvation or be healed using a Flu Shot. Stock up on Barley Bird Diet today and keep your birds healthy and breedable.

Orange Rinds
These delicious orange rinds are used to build the vivacity of your Barnyard Bird! These are important as your Barnyard Bird must have 85% or higher vivacity coupled with 100% vigor in order to breed.

High Potency Seeds
These seeds pack a potent punch! High Potency Seeds provide a 10% increase to Vigor. Vigor is important as your Barnyard Bird must have 85% or higher vivacity coupled with 100% vigor in order to breed. This consumable can only be used on a Barnyard Bird once in a 24 hour period.

Poultry Glow
This is the trifecta of consumables! The Poultry Glow provides a 5% increase to Stamina, a 5% increase to Vivacity and a 5% increase to Vigor. This consumable can only be used on a Barnyard Bird once in a 24 hour period

Flu Shot
If your Barnyard Bird runs out of food, or if you leave it in your inventory it will become sick. Once your Barnyard Bird is sick it will take 4 days for it to eat its way out of sickness, or you can purchase a one-time use Flu Shot that will heal one Barnyard Bird instantly

Vivacity Corn
These one-time use Vivacity Corns will increase one of your bird’s vivacity by 15%.

Also if you want to keep your Amaretto Barnyard Bird for a pet there is Pet Food!

Pet Pellets will keep your Barnyard Bird healthy not just when they are Seniors but also on those younger birds you simply do Not want to breed.

These Consumables can be found in any of the Amaretto Barnyard Bird Store

Pairing & Companion

Filed Under : Barnyard Bird Information,Horse Information,K9 Information by Josie
Oct.26,2012

TGIF! Hope everyone had a good week and received many amazing bundle, kennels and nests!

In group this week I have noticed a few times people asking what to do when their paired horses, K-9s or companioned Birds don’t breed. Well I have compiled a list of the fixes that I have seen posted in Amaretto Group chat by our awesome Community that have worked for many. Keep in mind these tips work for all 3 breedables.

1. The 1st step is always going to be to Re-rez them.
2. Check to be they are opposite sex – 1 male and 1 female. Don’t laugh it’s happened to all of us!
3. Check that they are the same versions. If not you can pick up a free updater at any store location.
4. Break the pairing/companionship on both menus and repair them.
5. If they are paired/companioned check the spelling of the names. If the name was spelled wrong when they were paired/companioned then it’s not going to work. Break the pairing/companionship and start over.
6. Check that they are not asleep.
7. Check that they are at full fervor/heat/vigor.
8. Check that they are breeding age.

If you’ve tried all these and they still have not bred:

1. Take to another sim and rez them out, sometimes they just like a change of scenery.
2. Try turning on movement for a bit, sometimes they just need a little exercise.
3. Pass them to an alt or a trusted friend and then have them send them back, sometimes a little trip can be nice.

Now after all that they are more than likely in the family way, but if you’ve tried all this and still are having trouble then please file a ticket on the support site and we’ll be happy to help you.

Until next time, Happy Breeding everyone!!
