Updates

Just in case you didn’t get the recent direct announcement, there are updates available for:

  • Magic Beds
  • Magic Toys
  • Squeaky Toys
  • Canned Drinks
  • Bowls
  • Dog Houses
  • Chaises

All of the above now have new code which means that you do not need to put dog names into Notecards or into the description fields for the toys. Any dog can play with any toy and any avatar.

  • *Active Toy* updates are also available.

This is the SLURL for the Update Stations

What’s in the Updates?

Beds: The Magic Beds make use of the most recent developments in the VKC dogs to produce the most realistic in-bed positioning available. No more bouncing out of the bed onto the floor. No more floating above the bed. No more having to make the bed phantom.  In addition to this the Magic Beds also have the touch menu that the Toys and Bowls now have… no more dog names in the description field either!

Toys: In the previous incarnations of the Magic Toys you used to write your dog’s name in the Description Field for the toy. In the new version you don’t have to do this, just touch the toy and it will give you a menu with the names of dogs in the vicinity of the Magic Toy. When you choose a dog’s name from the menu, the dog fetches the toy.

Of course, you can also tell your dog to go to the toy, take it, come, drop … whatever you like in the same old way.

Bowls: In the earlier versions of the Bowls you used to put the names of the dogs that would use them in a Notecard inside the bowl. In the new version there is no notecard. Just touch the bowl and it will give you menu with the names of dogs in the vicinity of the Bowl. When you choose a dog’s name from the bowl, the dog will come to eat or drink as appropriate.

Dog Houses: The dog houses now have their own script. Based on the techniques used in the Magic Beds you touch the Dog House and it displays a menu. On the menu you can choose from a list of dogs  who are nearby. When you choose a dog name the dog then comes over in front of the dog house, goes inside and goes to sleep.  You can choose “Setup” on the menu, which then allows you to choose the pose that the dog does when he goes into the dog house.

Chaises: The Chaises’ update introduces three new things:

  1. A new pose for the avatar sitting on the Chaise made by Amat Animations! (Amat Animations made all the different animations that come with the different VKC Dogs breeds.)
  2. A menu (like the bowls, toys beds and houses have) for choosing the dog that you want to come and sit with with you. No more names in the ‘Object Description Field’ for Vavoom! Accessorie.
  3. It works with ANY VKC dog breed, not just the smaller sized dogs. The Chaise is intelligent and knows what breed your dog is and it can make sure that they all get on and lay down close to you.
