GPS Covered!

Howdy breeders! Today I would like to cover the GPS. We have a GPS for each of our breedables. We have the Global Pony Settings barrel for horses, the Global Pup Settings hydrant for K9, and the Global Peck’n Sort silo for birds. These nifty devices were created to make life just a bit easier for breeders. The GPS turns possibly hundreds of clicks into a handful of clicks. The GPS is a FREE device that is given out at any Amaretto Horse, K-9, or Barnyard Bird Store.

Before we get into how these awesome devices work, it’s important to point out that the GPS will set all the horses, k9, or birds in a sim that are listed under the owner’s name. It’s important to remember this if you have special pens set up to manage special projects. Please also remember that there is a separate GPS for each of the three Amaretto Ranch Breedables.

When you get your Amaretto Global Pony Settings (GPS) from the Amaretto Store, you’ll open it to your inventory and find inside Instructions, Land Marks, TOS and the GPS itself. When you rezz your GPS and click on it, you will find the following Global Settings options

 

Set Range

This will allow you to set the range on your breedables. When you click this button you will put in local chat the range you wish your breedables to be set at.

Activate

Once you have made all the changes you would like to make to the settings of your breedables click Activate from the drop down menu and all your settings will be activated. If your text setting is left in the on position, you will probably notice the text on your K-9s will go off and then come back on.

Home Set

With this option you can keep the Home setting where it was or tell the GPS to reset the home on all rezzed breedables to their current location.

Text Off

This allows you to set the text to off.

Sounds On

This allows you to set the sounds to on.

Sounds Off

This allows you to set the sounds to off.

Anims On

This allows you to set the animations to on.

Anims Off

This allows you to set the animations to off.

Text On

This allows you to set the text to on.

Move Physic

This allows you to set the movement of your breedables to physical. When set to physical your breedable will not walk through other objects.

Move Phant

This allows you to set the movement of your breedables to phantom. When set to phantom your breedable will walk through other objects.

Move Off

This allows you to set the movement of your breedables to off.

You see all my breeders out there, the GPS is a must have! And it is free!! So get on down to the Amaretto stores and pick up a GPS for each breedable… Horse, K9, and Bird!!

Happy breeding Amaretto community!

Until next time……

Spotlight on Beaks!

It’s time for Thursday’s installment of the Breedable Spotlight!  Today I am shining that spotlight on our beloved Barnyard Birds!  Whether you own the Amaretto birds or not you have to admit they are the cutest lil critters on the farm!  I want to share with you one of the major projects I am working on with my birds and that is their beaks.

There are quite a few different beak colors and designs available for the Barnyard Birds and I find that it is a lot of fun trying to mix and match them and get as many different beak traits on as many different birds as I possibly can.  This is no small task let me tell you!

We have many different breeds of birds out there and they each have a different look for both the Hens and the Roosters.  So as you can imagine it makes adding these beak traits quite the challenge.

I have included pictures below of some of the beak traits I am working with so you can see what a great addition to the birds these can be. To see all the different birds available and what traits are out there already your most valuable resource will always be the Amaretto Bird Wiki.

http://wiki3.amarettobreedables.com/index.php?title=List_of_Barnyard_Bird_Traits

 

Hopefully this edition of the Breedable Spotlight inspires you to peck out your own Barnyard Project!

Until next week, Happy Breeding!
