Category : Amaretto Updates

I know how to update do you?

Hey guys its Monday! What does that mean? Could we be one day closer to a big update?
I dunno and if I did I sure couldn’t say!

But never the less, I want all you breeders to be prepared for what may or may not come. So……
I made some simple “How to update your horse” videos. There are two new videos located under the Help section of the website.

One video on how to use the bulk updater and one on how to use the single updater.

Just want you guys to be ready if Amaretto should put out an updater someday……….

OH! I almost forgot did you know that we now have our own Youtube channel?? You didn’t? Well good thing you guys have me to keep you informed! Anyways take a look at all the how to videos I’ve been busy making and if you have any suggestions for future videos send me (Avalon Crystal) a note card in world labeled video tutorials with your idea.

Well until next time guys happy breeding….. or updating!!!

Amaretto Horse Update 2.3 has arrived!! We have included changes and fixes and a few goodies that can be found in the offsprings of the new starters! You will NOT have a chance to see any of the new surprises until your new starters produce offspring. *AfterTuesday July 5,2011 we will NO longer provide support for horses that are NOT v2.3.*** So please update your horses

Update v2.3 fixes/changes:

1. Fixed to show both names on pairing

2. Fixed sick Clydesdale and Shetland Textures

3. Fixed parent info to show only to person that clicks the horse

4. Fixed gloom, chill, warmth, luster & gleam  to not effect the eyes

5.  Fixed notecard inside the Help button of horse to have correct info

6.  Fixed the colors of chill and warmth

7.  Fixed a bug in the messages causing the horses to lag some sims

New added features:

1.  Added 1% Pregnancy Booster

2. Put option to turn on and off auto center in the Riding menu so horses do not auto center.

Out to Pasture:

1. Retired the following eyes for AlbinosHazel Blue, Multi Green Blue , Hazel Pink, Brown Blue, Rainbow

2. Retired the following  Horses:Demon Charmed, Charmed Pegacorn

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 horse 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 horses. The reason being the updater can potentially abort the pregnancy. Waiting to update your pregnant horses will not effect the horses functions, they will continue to eat, move, animate etc. When they give birth to the bundle, then you can update them. The bundle 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.
You can  find the brand new starter packs and updater at any of these  amaretto locations.

So happy updating everyone and remember if you have any issues please file a ticket!  Please remember if one place is packed go to the next one.

 

We have been working around the clock with the engineers to get the server migration completed and all the bugs worked out.  The entire Team has heard the community and we share in your frustrations of the past week. As our token of gratitude for all  your support and patience throughout these issues we have compiled an Esteem Pack to show our appreciation to you the community. We will have vendors out tomorrow on May 19th (Times & Location to be announced tomorrow.)
**ONE Esteem pack per avatar.**
*****YOU MUST HAVE OWNED HORSES PRIOR TO MAY 18, 2011 IN ORDER TO RECEIVE THE ESTEEM PACK******
What do these Esteem Packs contain you might be wondering?
1 Random Esteem Horse (gender and Coat are both random) There are 3 different Esteem Horses (you will only receive 1 that is randomly choosen in your Esteem Pack)

  • Limited Edition Esteem Steed Short Circuit  eye: Electric Green  (Eye can pass)
  • Limited Edition Esteem Steed “The Network” eye: Data Burst   (Eye can pass)
  • Limited Edition Esteem Steed Cyborlossa   eye: Laser eye   (Eye can pass)

Complimentary Consumable Pack which contains 1 of each of the following:

  • 1 – Jumbo 25 pack of Breedable Food
  • 1 –  Jumbo 25 Pack of Salt Licks
  • 1 – 5 pack of Amaretto Cocktail
  • 1 – 5 pack of Endurance Elixir
  • 1 – 5 pack of Horsie Snacks
  • 1 – 5 pack of Sugar Cubes
  • 1 – 5 pack of Passion Pills

We want you all to know how much we appreciate your patience and support.  The team has been working countless hours to get through all your support tickets which are taking a longer response time than normal, but rest assured we will get to your ticket. We hope the Esteem Pack lets you all know how much we do appreciate our Community!

******YOU MUST HAVE OWNED HORSES PRIOR TO MAY 18, 2011 IN ORDER TO RECEIVE THE ESTEEM PACK******
TO BE PERFECTLY CLEAR:
1.    These horses are like any other Limited Edition in that they do have the ability to have all the hidden traits the starter horses have.  However, these Esteem Horses do have the ability to pass the eye that     is showing (Electric green, Data burst & Laser). The coats on the Esteem horses DO NOT pass.
2.    You will only be able to purchase ONE of the Esteem packs per avatar.
3.    These will only be available at ONE location, please leave the sim once you receive your Esteem pack as only 30 avatars will be allowed on the sim at a time. They will be out long enough for everyone to receive theirs so no need for a mad rush 

On a personal note the Amaretto Team, consisting of myself, maleficent, Dakota, Avalon, Jaymee & Tmzasz as well as the owners Jaysin & Josie, all want to send an extra special THANK YOU AND WE LOVE YOU to our own General Manager Richie Carami without who we would not have survived this past week!  We hope the entire community will join us in thanking Richie for all his hard work and inspiring the rest of the team to work hard (even when we’re dead tired) Thanks Richie

If you continue to try and update your horse 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)

Update Instructions:

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

Bulk Updater: Place the bulk updater in the middle of your horse breeding area, click the updater and adjust the settings you want your horses to be set to after the update process, then click the update horses button on the updater menu. This updater has the ability to update all horses that are not v2.0 in an entire region. However, depending on sim performance it may only do the horses in a 96 meter radius. Do not remove the updater until it has completed updating all horses and the hover text above the updater reads FINISHED. ***DO NOT PICK UP HORSES OR THE UPDATER UNTIL IT HAS COMPLETED THE UPDATE PROCESS***
