Tips for Rollbacks

Filed Under : All,Second Life Issues by maleficent Farshore

May.20,2013

The worst thing about Monday’s is knowing tomorrow is Tuesday and it full of sl restarts and rollbacks!

We all know what SL Rollbacks do….lol…

When SL does a sim Rollback, it takes the sim back to a previous state. If you have purchased a horse from someone, and the sim where you purchased the breedable from has a rollback, it can create a duplicate issue., maybe even someone else has come along and also purchased the same breedable. This is why we ask for transaction history. If this happens you can contact the seller for refund. Please don’t just assume they are selling duplicates on purpose. Talk to the seller. Things can be worked through.

I have noticed a lot of problems have been happening with breedables disappearing at auctions, some by SL roll backs, some even by lag when trying to rez them, and others when taking them after purchase. When you go to an auction you have to fill out a notecard about your breedable. It only takes a little extra time to record the UUID number on the notecard.

How do I find the UUID Number?

Go to edit on the breedable, in the description line that is the uuid number. That number is very important and can help a lot if you need to file a ticket for a missing breedable, highlight the number and copy , paste to notecard. Doing this is like taking each one of your breedables’ fingerprints!! It can be a big time help if anything ever does happen to your breedable.

Name that Breedable…

Give all breedables a name, so if you don’t know the UUID when it goes missing , but you do know its name, we have something to go by when we try to find it.

So lets get ready, prepare yourselves,Tuesday’s are always full of bumpy rides. Here’s hoping your Tuesday will be rollback free!

It’s Time For Some Summer School At ARU!

Filed Under : All,Amaretto Ranch University News by Josie

May.16,2013

Hi everyone and Happy Thursday!! Today I wanted to remind you guys that class are still being held at ARU! This is a great way to learn about any of our breedables if you are new to Amaretto. Even if you are a breeder that has been breeding for a long time this is also a great resource to learn something that you didn’t know!

The classes are held on Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday every week at 9 AM SLT and 5 PM SLT. You do not have to register or sign up to attend. Classes do not generally take a lot of time most last no more than 10 minutes. Every month we post the ARU schedule on the website as well as several of our locations in world. Here is the link to the ARU calendar
http://amarettobreedables.com/pages/calendar

There is also a ARU website that you can join to keep up with what classes you have taken and which classes you haven’t!
Link to ARU website:
http://amarettoranchuniversity.com/

If you have a suggestion for a class at ARU please drop a suggestion notecard in the mail box in the courtyard!

If you have taken a class that has not posted to the ARU website please file a ticket and let us know the class and the date you took it.
File your tickets at:
http://support.amarettobreedables.com
To receive credit for a class that you are taking you must turn in a notecard made by your avatar at the end of each class to the instructor!

All of the things are pretty simple and you may learn a thing or two about Amaretto Breedables that you did not already know. I would suggest for old and new breeders to attend!
Here is the inworld slurl for the ARU sim:

So, set some time aside to attend the ARU classes, they are not only fun but very informative!

Hello my breeding friends! It’s another busy Tuesday at the Amaretto Ranch today! I wanted to take some time to share with you all the newness for this month!

What am I talking about? Well the Amaretto Showcase Perlino and Best in Show Dane!!

Heres a up close look at both of these cute animals!

Remember that the coats on these animals don’t pass but the eyes and the collar on the Best in Show Dane do have the ability to pass!

Wondering how you can get your hands on one of these ?
Well its pretty simple!

Beginning May 5, 2013 to June 4th, 2013 any bundle dropped from the breeding of any 2 Perlino horses had the chance at being an Amaretto Showcase Perlino Horse.

For Best In Show Dane, beginning May 5, 2012 to June 4, 2013 any kennel dropped from the breeding of any 2 Great Dane K-9s have the chance at being a Best In Show Dane.

Take a look at these cuties!!
