Hello everyone and Happy Saturday! I hope your weekend is off to a great start!

Today I want to shine the spotlight on something that was announced at our 7th birthday in 2017! On September 1, 2017 Amaretto celebrated our 7 Year anniversary with a big Vegas Birthday Bash! It was announced that you could have your chance at getting a Reptile horse by breeding together any two reptile eyes.

These are the Reptile eyes that you can breed together to get a Reptile Horse:
Crocodile
Rough Green Snake
Green Tree Monitor Lizard
Tokay Gecko

For a closer look at these eyes check them out on the wiki at https://horse.amaretto.wiki/index.php?title=Reptile_Eyes

There are 4 Reptile Horses currently and they are:

Green Tree Monitor Lizard Reptile
Rough Green Snake Reptile
Crocodile Reptile
Tokay Gecko Reptile

For a closer look at these Reptile Coats them out on the wiki at https://horse.amaretto.wiki/index.php?title=Reptile_Horses

So what are you waiting for! Go get yourself some reptile eyes today and work on getting one of these gorgeous babies!

Until next time this is Snookie hoping your weekend is great and you have an amazing week ahead!!

Happy Breeding!

Coalesced Horses?

What exactly are coalesced objects? Coalesced objects are found in your Inventory with the name of the last object selected. When the selected objects are taken into inventory, the coalesced object is located in the Objects folder. When they are returned, the coalesced object is located in the Lost And Found folder. Single objects in inventory have an icon that looks like a cube, while coalesced groups of objects have an icon that looks like a stack of cubes.

Now you might ask, “What does this have to do with breedables?” As it turns out, in certain circumstances breeders may have to pick up multiple bundles and horses at once, or get them returned to them in bulk by parcel owners. The problem with picking up in bulk is that SL has a limit on how many coalesced PRIMS you can rez out at once. Coalesced objects have prim limits because the time required to rez them can exceed the capacities of Second Life’s servers, causing problems when Residents attempt to take complex coalesced objects into inventory. Since the average horse has 14 prims, but some can have several more, I wouldn’t recommend picking up more than 12 at a time. This is not a problem that Amaretto can fix. To rez an object that exceeds the prim limit of 255, create a support ticket requesting that the object be broken into a set of smaller objects.

If you are a Premium member speak to Live Chat and ask for access to “Unpackistan” if you cannot rezz it in a normal sandbox.
To access Live Chat, check here

If you are a Basic member, submit a ticket for the same thing. You can find SL support here

https://support.secondlife.com/

Open the Help tab on the right side of the page and select Ticket History, enter your login info, then select Submit A Ticket from the next page. The issue type would be Technical Questions, then describe what you need.

Good luck Breeders, and I hope this helps if you’re ever in this situation.

Hey! Where is my bundle?

Hey everyone! Happy Monday here we are starting off another week!

So I wanted to talk to you guys about something that I seem to be seeing a few tickets about. What am I talking about ? Well missing bundles!

I am specifically talking about a horse that is in recovery and has no bundle good or bad, just no bundle at all,

Now some people will have no idea what im talking about because this has never happened to them but others have experienced this issue.

Whats the difference in both breeders horses? Nothing! Its the land settings!

There are many different options that can be set on your land, and I wish i could explain them all in detail to you but im no expert. However I do know of one option that can ensure you dont get any bundles that your horse drops!

If you click on the about land, then options you will see which options are set on the land you are on like this:

If you are breeding on a land that does not allow object entry to everyone or has it set to group only, if your horses are not set to land group this setting means your horses will not be able to rez the bundle it drops.

So there are 2 options to resolve this issue, I am using firestorm so if you are using a different viewer your settings may look different.

Option one is to enable object entry to everyone, if you are not comfortable with this there is another option, Under firestorm prefrences there is a little check box that says:

Always rez objects under the land group if possible

When you check this despite the tag you may be wearing this will set the horse when you rez it out to the land group if possible.

If you have had this happen to you the only thing you can do is file a ticket. I hope that this helps some of you that may experience this issue!

This is Ava over and out! Happy breeding!

Duck Consumables

Happy Sunday!! Hope everyone is having a great week-end!! Today let’s take a look at what those beautiful little ducks need to thrive in our world and take a look at Duck Consumables!!

Amaretto Brand Corn Duck Diet

This is the primary food needed for your breedable ducks. One Amaretto Brand Corn Duck Diet feeds one Barnyard Bird for 28 days. So since ducks are a 1:1 breedable, this food will last your breeding paid of ducks for two weeks.

Remember without Ducks having food available to them they will become sick and you would have to heal them or allow them the time to eat their way back to health.

Amaretto Brand Duck Pellets

Want to have ducks but not really interesting in breeding them or are they seniors? Then you need Amaretto Brand Duck Pellets to keep them healthy.

Lettuce Leaves

For your Duck to breed they must have 85% or higher vivacity coupled with 100% vigor in order to breed. So you will need to give your Ducks some Lettuce Leaves. But remember if you have an Exotic Barnyard Bird or a Sanctuary Bird they will help your Ducks Vivacity at around 75%.

Those are all your basic necessities for breeding some beautiful Ducks! Now let’s take a quick little look at the consumables that are shared with Chickens.

Other Consumables

Ducks are a fantastic breedable from Amaretto!! So why not get out there and get a Flock of Ducks today!!

Checkout these Vaporwave Horses!

Hey everyone Happy Saturday! I hope your weekend is off to a great start!

Today the spotlight is shining  on the Vaporwave Horses!  Have you seen these beauties?

On September 1st 2020 Amaretto celebrated their 10th birthday! One birthday surprise that was announced was the Vaporwave Horses! It was announced that you could have your chance at getting a Vaporwave horse by breeding together any two Gem Crown horns listed on this link: https://horse.amaretto.wiki/index.php?title=Gem_Crown



These Vaporwave Horses DO NOT have the ability to pass their coat!

The Eyes on the Vaporwave Horses DO have the ability to pass!

For a closer look at any of these you can check them out on the wiki https://horse.amaretto.wiki/index.php?title=Vaporwave_Horses

So get those crowns out and breed, breed, breed!! I absolutely love these horses & I can’t wait to get one of these babies how about you?

Until next time this is Snookie hoping you have an amazing weekend and a great week ahead!

Happy Breeding!!

Are You Superstitious?

It’s Friday the 13th!! Superstitious? Many people are about the number 13. Fear of the number 13 has been given a scientific name: “triskaidekaphobia”. Friday the 13th is considered an unlucky day in Western superstition. Many hotels avoid the 13th floor, reserving it for storage and maintenance or skipping it entirely, due to many people’s morbid fear of the number 13. Some planes also may not have a row 13. An entire series of scary movies was based around that date.

Fortunately for the Amaretto breeders, we have a different reason to LOVE that date. Beginning in April Friday 13th 2012, Amaretto released a random drop of the Friday 13 branding, which can pass.

Then in July 2018 came the Friday the 13th Limited Edition Spirit Board. The Spirit Board was hiding an Ebony Overo coat that has the ability to pass! The Supernatural eye also passed.

The Spirit Board K-9 was hiding the Ebony Splashed Great Dane. The eye and collar on the Special Edition passed.
The Spirit Board Ponie Pal was hiding the Painted Ebony style coat, which could pass. The eyes on the DE also could pass.
The Spirit Board chicken was hiding the Ebony Faverolles coat that had the ability to pass! The eyes on the Collectors Edition bird could also pass!

If you were one of the lucky breeders who got the random drop Friday 13th branding, or the hidden surprises from the Friday 13th special coats, then Friday 13th has truly become a lucky day!

Ive Lost IT!???

Hey everyone Happy Thursday!

Second Life is not without it’s unpredictable behavior. Sometimes the re-starts, rollbacks and crashes can wreck havoc on your inventory items. These issues are most often related to asset server problems. You may have noticed that when Linden Lab posts grid status problems, they will often warn not to rez no-copy items during that period of time. This is because doing so can cause the servers to drop your inventory items. Nevertheless, there are a few things you can try to find your missing item(s).

First, remain calm!

Second, relog. Sometimes, this is all that is necessary for missing items to show up in your inventory again.

Third, check your Lost & Found folder in your inventory for the item. The object may have been returned to you without your knowing. Also, Check your Objects folder and don’t forget to look at any unknown “coalesced object” boxes. You may well find your missing items in there!

Fourth, try searching for the item using Area Search:
Go to top menu, World → Area Search.
Click on the “Find” tab and type part of the name of the item into the “Name” field. Click “Search.”
You will be taken to the “List” tab. If you see the name of the object, double-click it in the list and follow the red beacon to the object. Moving your avatar or camera around can help the Area Search detect items that are not detected initially

Fifth, go to point 0,0,0 in the region or, if you don’t have access to it because it is part of someone else’s private property, ask that parcel or region owner to look. Sometimes, rezzed items will be deposited there.
To get to point 0,0,0:
Either type “gtp 0 0 0” into local chat (without the quotes) and hit Enter;
Or open your mini-map (top menu, World → Mini-Map, or Ctrl-Shift-M) and fly or walk to the far southwest corner of the region. Try to pan below the ground.

Sixth, teleport to a low lag or viewer support parcel, such as Hippo Hollow http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Hippo%20Hollow/43/167/51 or an empty water region, such as Cyclops http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Cyclops/128/128/6 . Drop your draw distance low (for example, to 32 or lower) to minimize the work the viewer is trying to do outside of loading your inventory. Relog from there. If you are using the Firestorm viewer, try using their instruction for recovering missing inventory. http://wiki.phoenixviewer.com/fs_missing_inventory (This has worked on numerous occasions for me.)

Seventh, if the item missing is an Amaretto product, you can always file a ticket with Amaretto. The ticket system is located at http://support.amarettobreedables.com/index.php
There is a helpful video on the page to help guide you through the process.

I would like to point out a couple of things to keep in mind when using the Amaretto Help Desk
•PLEASE put both your full SL First name and Last name (if you do not have a last name put resident) in the ticket do NOT use display names
•All communication MUST be in the ticket. CSRs will not respond to in world IMs or Notecards! To ensure your ticket is resolved as quick as possible, Please keep ALL responses/communications in your ticket.
•Tickets may take 48-72 hours to get a response from the support team, please have patience.
•Do not respond to the emails, we do not get those, you must respond inside the ticket itself for us to see the response.
•No response to tickets from the user in 3 days and the ticket will be closed.
•Do not wait to be contacted inworld regarding your ticket. Please log in and check for responses to your tickets.
•Please do not file multiple tickets for the same issue, it only slows things down and the duplicate tickets will be closed. Refrain from refreshing your page on the ticket system, it will duplicate your tickets.
•You must be the owner of the Horse/Bundle, K-9/Kennel, Bird/Nest or Ponie/Basket to file a ticket. Please do not file tickets for others.
•Please include as much pertinent information as possible regarding your ticket/issue this will help expedite your ticket. Make sure to include the transaction history, from your dashboard, for recently purchased items.

We are always here to help! Happy breeding this is Ava over and out!
