2.12 Update - Growing up

Changes

A new update is available for all parents with 2.x version.

First and most important adds support for the potty trainer that enables the bigger babies to lose the diapers.
It also includes a list of bugfixes which includes:

The burp sound its back
The diaper now hides the skirt
After you press save the baby will stay there (not crawling) till you pick him up.
Should fix some bugs on the high chair that sometimes reported that the baby wasn´t big enough.
Reports the correct number when a level is lost (before it was always reported the constitution)
And probably something else I’m forgetting.

IMPORTANT

If you need to update more than one baby, you need 1 disc per baby and do it one at a time. Don´t try to update more than one at the same time. This time anyone can make the update and the family list won´t be lost anymore on each update.

After making the update, rez your baby again (without saving the personality) for him to load all data again.

Don´t try to update unborn babies or they will be lost or update from other version that 2.06. If you do, you can lose the baby´s personality or need a medic kit to heal him.

Sometimes the update program can’t handle with all the requests. If the process stops at some point without reaching 100%, press "update" again.

If this is too hard, you can also get the latest version by recovering your baby or ask for help at your favorite clinic.

Potty Trainer release

The potty trainer it’s available. Remember that your baby must be on stage 7 to use it. As usual you can get it from the marketplace or at your favorite clinic. This also means that the new update will be available for all shortly.

About this Potty Trainer

This Potty Trainer is build with the new mesh system; to view the object correctly you will need a mesh compatible viewer and its meant to be used only with babies on stage 7 and for babies on version 2.12 or newer replacing the use of diapers.

To use the potty trainer sit the baby on the baby´s poseball and wait till his work is done. Babies need training to use the potty so don´t expect to work from start and it could need the baby to reach 100% depositions the first times. Over the uses the baby will get comfortable with the use of the potty and have his business done more quickly and on lower depositions level. This is a training for your baby so it will take some time and various tries.

You can sit your avatar on the potty trainer to have fun with your baby and encourage him in his training.

Baby poseball can be hiden/shown as normal poseball with “/1 show-hide” command

Touching the potty trainer will bring a popup menu. This menu will allow you to update the product, sit the baby or choose one of the 6 different colors available for the potty.
