I've upgraded the Centaur av so that it now has a 'sit' pose. There's also a couple of changes that'll be required for some of the accessories I have planned, so if you've bought one already, please go to the barn and pick yourself up a new version. There's an upgrade vendor by the Centaur Av vendor - just click it and select the model you want to upgrade.
If you've bought a centaur after this post, you don't need to do anything, you already have the most recent version :)
Pony Avatar Saddle System
22 February 2008
Sorry to keep you waiting, folks, but I hope this is worth the wait :) The Saddle System is finally ready! It comes with a whole bunch of notes, but I'll try to trim them down to the basics here so you get an idea:
The Saddle System comes with a Saddle which can be worn, or left off to ride bareback.
You can be either the pony or the rider. Either can be in control - the person who gets on first is the person who steers. Want the other person to steer? Hop off and back on again and they will become 'first' and in control.
The Saddle System won't go anywhere without its owner being on board, so nobody can run off with it. It also won't go anywhere without a pony, for the sake of realism! If you own it and you're the pony, you can walk around without a rider.
The rider can change the height they sit at, so even if they're very tall, or very small, they can adjust their position so they're sitting comfortably.
You can show and hide the poseballs, so a pony can wander round using it without the rider poseball showing. 'Guests' (people using it who don't own it) can be 'thrown', whether they're the pony or the rider.
That's about it. Hope you have fun with it!
Hoofbeats Sound HUD Button
20 February 2008
When I made the Pony av, it didn't have hoofbeat sounds in it (let's face it, there were enough other features for me to be thinking about! Forgive me if I miss one :D) Since the EquiReal release though, a few of you have wondered why the ponies can't clip-clop too. So here's a handy little HUD button that plays walking and running hoofbeats, and can be worn with any avatar you like.
Attach it and it'll naturally sit just above the Pony Av Toggles HUD, or move it to where you want it. Want to play other sounds when you walk? Just name your sounds the same as the ones in the button, remove the originals, and add your own - you can be merrily beep-blooping as you walk, if that's what lifts your skirt. Or tail.

I'm sorry, I figured there hadn't been a site update in a while...
