Webmasters corner

hello everyone today i would like to take a moment to let yall know about the new k-9 forums! as a few of you have noticed already there’s 3 new sections in the forums:

The First is the K-9 Related Chat Only:

this forum is for general topics about the K-9s

The other 2 are under the Trading post category

K-9 Trading Post ( K-9/Kennel Only):

Post up your K-9’s and Kennels for sale in here! just remember to let everyone know once its sold 🙂

and K-9 Trading Post (Related Items No K-9s or Kennels)

this is where you post goods for sale that are not K-9’s or Kennels ( like cool looking pens and such )

Remember the forums are not for support ( file a ticket over at http://support.amarettobreedables.com for that ) and that we are watching if we see any abusive behavior in the forums the offending content will be removed and you will be warned if it keeps happening forum access can be revoked 🙁

Hope to see some amazing dogs/kennels and other items in these posts as well as good conversations about the dogs 🙂

Second Life has many lag issues, that can cause duplication of breedables, disappearance of breedables, or incomplete transfer of breedables. Having your breedable named can be very helpful especially when SL eats you Horse or K-9. We need information to remake your breedable. What we need is the Name of breedable and/or UUID number. If you leave you horse or K-9 as Amaretto Breedable Horse or Amaretto Breedable K-9 it can make it harder to find and sometimes impossible. The same goes for kennels and bundles.

We can only replace, remake your item if we have the information, so please take the time to name all your breedables.

Names can be as simple as using a number. It will also help you keep track and know when you are missing a horse or K-9.

When you get a bundle or kennel and you decide not to birth it, name it before you take it into your inventory. Lets say a few weeks down the road you decide to birth that bundle, and the horse stays white and doesn’t birth. You probably dont remember who the parents of the bundle were, but if you have named the bundle and paid attention to the bundle name before you clicked birth, you now have some information to give us that can help in finding out about that bundle.

Have fun with naming and may all your bundles and kennels be great ones!

A few issues k9’s and horses!

Hey everyone! I hope everyone is enjoying there long weekend by now. I know i will be soon 🙂

I wanted to talk to you about a few things ive been seeing happening out in world when I have to go on a house calls.
A few people have been filing tickets, about k9’s not eating.

Well upon further examination every time I visited someones sim because their k9 wasn’t eating

I found it was because the food they had out was set to group only and was a completely different group than the ones the k9 were set to.
So please make sure that you food is set to owner only or all, if you are going to use the group setting option please ensure that your k9s and food are all set to the same group.

Also another thing i wanted to mention is skating horses or deformed horses while sleeping. Not everyone is experiencing this issue but i know some that are.
Linden labs has been rolling out changes to their servers sometimes to the physics engine ou can read about all the changes being made here http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Release_Notes/Second_Life_Server/11#11.08.22.239223

We are looking for a fix for these issues and hope to get them to you guys asap but for now we will just have to work around these hard ships!!

Well until next time happy breeding everyone!
