1. You can use the bulldozer to demolish the buildings. In order to demolish a building you must position the bulldozer on the north-western corner (top-left). 2. Woodmills can be upgraded, so they will produce more wood. To do so, after you bought a woodmill, go to your Home and click on the desired woodmill. You will see an Upgrade button. 3. The wood will no longer be collected automatically from the woodmills. You will have to go to your woodmills every game month and click the Collect button. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| New commands for chat | 18th of December, year 35 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
You can ignore messages on chat line from players you do not want to talk with.
| |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Ranches and land | 20th of September, year 35 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
You can buy more land for your ranch. The extra land is expensive, and the more you buy, the more expensive it gets so you should look at the prices first, because there are no refunds for unwanted land. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Referrals | 18th of Augustus, year 35 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
The referrals were finally added to the game. This means that if you bring a new player to the game, you receive 10000 coins when they join (and register their email). You also get 50000 coins when their players become level 10. This means that if you refer a good player, that creates 3 players and they all become level 10, you will earn 160000 coins in total. To refer someone, you have to give them the following link: www.avirtualhorse.com/login/signup?r=1 You must replace 1 with your player's #. So if your # is 502, put 502 there. Note: Creating accounts yourself, so you can get the referral coins will result in being banned from the game, so please do not cheat. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Second stable added | 15th of Iulius, year 35 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
You can build a second stable on your ranch, allowing you to move horses from the main stable to the second one. The price of the second stable is 25000 coins. Note that there may be a few glitches in the beginning, so feel free to use the hunters' chamber to report them. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Building ranch and new buildings | 19th of Aprilis, year 35 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
As you probably have noticed you are able to build your own ranch, and put the buildings wherever you like. New buildings will be added soon, allowing you to customize the features of the game. The first new building added is the Tack Room. Once you buy a tack room, you can go there by clicking on the image in your ranch. A tack room allows you to store some of the tack you do not want to accidentally sell. You can store the tack there and withdraw it later, when you want to tack your horses. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Repairing tack changes | 19th of Januarius, year 34 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
1. The repair skill can go up to 100% It does not make sense to have that one higher than that. 2. If you are repairing tack that you have created, you are repairing to a better shape than the tack that was created by someone else. 3. You will no longer break tack while repairing. If the shape of the tack you are trying to repair is higher than your manufacturing skill, the game will just tell you that you cannot repair it. This is the formula for repairing tack: New_shape = Current_shape + (Repair_skill/100 * (Create_skill - Current_shape))/Tack_penalty Tack_penalty = 1.5 if the tack was created by you and 2 if the tack was created by someone else. Example: Repair skill=100% Create skill=100% Tack shape=35% If the tack was created by you the new shape will be: 35 + 100/100*(100-35)/1.5 = 78% If the tack was not created by you then the new shape will be 35 + 100/100(100-35)/2 = 67% | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| New layout | 14th of December, year 33 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
Your color schemes have been disabled so if you wish to switch back, you will need to enable them again. You will see 2 new categories that you can set: 1. The Rows even color and Rows even background sets the colors for the even lines in a list. By default the even lines in a list (like players list) is of a different color than the odd lines. 2. The Row hover color and background color allows you to set the colors of a row when you move your mouse over it. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Requesting stud | 4th of Maius, year 33 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
There are several reasons for not seeing the "Request stud" link on a stallion. 1. The stallion is not level 5 2. The stallion is not yet 3 years old or is retired. 3. The stallion is starving 4. The stallion does not have the vet checks (breeding check, the regular check and does not have the shots) 5. The stallion is 'currently busy', meaning that it will have to wait for several days. Note that mules cannot breed. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| More clubs removed | 16th of September, year 32 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Following clubs have been removed: The Stallion Registry, Abaco Barb, American Saddlebred | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| AVH in other languages | 18th of Iulius, year 32 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
I would like to have AVH translated in other languages. If your first language is not English, and you'd like to help translating the texts to your language, please send me a letter specifying the language you want to translate it to. Please contact me only if you're a native speaker of a different language than English, as I do not want AVH translated badly. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| New skill for riders | 3rd of Januarius, year 32 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
The riders have a new skill, that allows them to add xp to a horse without showing that horse. If you are a rider you should see a button that says "Go to your training barn", if you went Home. There is a help page on the training barn explaining how to practice your skill. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The newspaper | 24th of December, year 31 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
...is looking for reporters. There is an ad on the Ads board (in the town hall) Do not send letters, reply to that ad. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Riders manufacturing tack | 4th of December, year 31 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
The riders will no longer be able to manufacture tack. Only manufacturers and equilibriums will, so if you want to continue manufacturing (and you are a rider), you should switch guilds. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Improving AVH | 2nd of October, year 30 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
You have the chance to help AVH and help new players understand the game better and easier. The Help button is designed to give players information about the room they are in. (For instance if they are at the market, it will tell them about the market, in a shop the help tells about the shop etc) Some rooms do not have such information so they are incomplete. You can now submit text for those rooms, and if your input is accepted you receive a small reward, and the game becomes better. :) Note: This option is for experienced players only (level 30 or higher). Spamming will not be tolerated, so do not attempt that. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Latest Changes | 2nd of September, year 30 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
1. The ignored players list. At the post office you can see a list of the players you ignored. 2. When you find horses (under the magnifier) you have a new checkbox, for the retired horses. If you check that checkbox, the list will contain the retired horses (both in players' stables and at the AVH Retirement Barn) | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
