Fennux News

Team Fennux has been very quiet over the past couple of months. We’ve continued to release new Wishing Well LEs every month, we brought out the Capture Dueling Arenas and continue to update them, but other than that there has not been any other vital signs that we’re even alive. Well we are alive, and doing quite well! So well in fact that we’re now ready to share with the public what we’ve been up to behind the scenes this whole time.

We have not updated The Fennux in all of the 7 months that they have existed. We are nearing the time where we will be doing our first update. When we say update, we don’t mean a brand new game where we’ve changed everything – we simply mean a shinier version. So let me start off by detailing a few of the new features we’re adding to The Fennux.

We have added slight movements of the Fennux Eyes, they will look to the left and to the right, up and down, and diagonally. Fennux will now breathe slightly when asleep. Fennux will sometimes find a ball to play with, allowing for multiple Fennux to chase after the same one as if they’re playing together. Fennux will sometimes emit particles above their head depending on their mood or depending on what holiday is going on. Fennux will hop over to their dish of kibbles when they are hungry (so long as you have kibbles in  range). Fennux are now able to be pet via the HUD, which is simply a fun new animation. Fennux will sometimes curl up next to each other and sleep (on purpose).

We also have added a lot of technical features such as storing the Activity Level inside the Fennux itself – you can configure this from your HUD now instead of requiring a Home. We fixed an issue where Fennux attached to Avatar Center (running along-side you) would randomly ball up every so often. We fixed an issue with the Fennux Head Sculpt showing a slight line on the sides of the cheeks, it now is completely smooth (sculpt type was cylinder, it is now torus). We fixed some hydration issues so that you can now hydrate a Fennux immediately after a successful mating (some people had issues, those people will no longer have issues). We added the ability to set your Fennux up on Web Market in a static pose, so your Fennux can sit, stand, etc. We added a method for creating unlimited mini-games / interactive items / etc, allowing Team Fennux to be able to release new content without requiring further updates (after this one). We also added a detection for whenever no one is around to actually see your Fennux, it will put them all in activity 0 to keep lag down. We are adding Path-finding options, and a few new animations to the mix. Oh and Fennux will have the ability to turn on or off Full Bright globally, so if you want to see your gorgeous Fennux Textures at their best – you can! We made this option able to be turned on/off for a reason, as not everyone wants full bright on their Fennux – but for those of you who do – enjoy!

We are adding a few updates to the Fennux HUD, such as the addition of a Tree Button on the INFO Tab, a TP to Fennux Main Store button and a Refresh Reserve Food button on the ME Tab. We changed the Eternal Merge button to have a red border (it also has Deletes Fennux sub-text) so people better know the difference between Merge and Pet, and lastly we added a way for creators of Fennux Packs (groups) to leave with the option of setting someone else as the head of the Pack.

A few new items will be showing up (some free, some for purchase, more details soon) including the Eternal Merge / Eternal Pet Reversal, this will reverse any merge or any pet that you or someone else has done, as well as a new Build-able Fennux Home – where your Fennux will actually seek out pieces of the home, retrieving them and building a useable home over time. We just made a way to eternal merge all recipes at once – including a controller to merge all on the same region at once.

There are also a few more surprises coming your way. We are listening to a lot of feedback (if you have any, submit a ticket, we LOVE Feedback!) and have a few more ideas for the secondary market, as well as ideas to create a new market of sorts – but more on that later. Please keep checking back here for more information regarding the planned update. If you need to ask a question directly, please submit a ticket to us. Thanks for reading and keep on breeding!

OH YES – we forgot to mention that the update will be hassle-free! We have a new method of updating Fennux in mass quantity (although the old method of obtaining a new HUD and rebuilding each Fennux one by one still works), but the mass quantity option may be better for breeders who own many Fennux.

The Patriot Limited Edition Fennux Coat is here!

NOTE: THE LE FLAME SPIRIT EYES (SEEN HERE) ARE VERY RARE, DO NOT EXPECT TO GET THEM, BUT IF YOU DO GET THEM – CONGRATULATIONS!

To find out more about how the Wishing Well system works, you can watch our informative video tutorial at the following page: Fennux Wishing Well Tutorial

Users can turn their extra Dens (12) into 1 Patriot LE Fennux & 12 Days of Reserve Food by doing the following:

1) Place your 12 Fennux Dens on the Wishing Well, putting 1 Den on each wooden panel

2) Click the Wishing Well (it may take a few seconds to calculate…)

3) It will ask you to confirm (YES or NO), pressing YES will drop all 12 Dens into the Well

4) An Inventory Offer will present itself to you, press KEEP to get your Patriot LE Den, at this time you also will receive 12 Days (48 Kibbles) of Reserve Food, which is visible on your HUD instantly

And that’s all there is to it! Enjoy your Patriot LE Fennux Den, and your 12 Days of Reserve Food!

WHERE DO I GET MY PATRIOT LE FENNUX?

The Wishing Well exists only on the Fennux Sim. We have 1 setup next to every Crafting Machine, and of course these Wishing Wells are used to turn any 12 Fennux Dens into 1 Patriot LE Dens (and 12 days of Reserve Food).

IMPORTANT INFORMATION:

Yes there is a SMALL CHANCE to get “LE Flame Spirit Eyes”, but the odds are roughly about a 0.5% chance to obtain, so don’t expect to get them! The LE Flame Spirit Eyes can pass onto other coats, so even if you don’t get them from Wishing, you will have opportunities to obtain them in the Secondary Market later.

Most Fennux however will have regular eyes from a starter den, very similar to Crafting – the only thing that is “LE” on most Patriot LE Fennux is the over-ride of the Fennux Coat. It’s more-or-less exactly like Crafting, except for the fact the coat will not pass.

Team Fennux is proud to introduce our latest feature: Fennux Capture Battles!

To get started please read this page VERY carefully. Let me start off with a bit of a warning…

WARNING – YOU RISK LOSING YOUR FENNUX IF YOU LOSE THE BATTLE. IF YOU WIN THE BATTLE YOU WILL GET A COPY OF THE SAME FENNUX YOU DEFEATED TO ADD TO YOUR COLLECTION. IT WILL BE A BREEDABLE STARTER DEN WITH THE EXACT SAME STATS AS THE ONE YOU JUST DEFEATED. AGAIN, IF YOU LOSE THE BATTLE – YOUR FENNUX WILL BE ETERNAL MERGED FOR GOOD, NO EXCEPTIONS.

Now that we have that part out of the way, allow me to explain how this all works…

Step 1) Rez a Fennux you want to duel with on the arena floor. It must have a lesser current dueling tier as the Fennux you are about to be battling, else you will not be able to battle the Fennux.

Step 2) Click on the dueling arena to initiate the battle.

Step 3) Do your best to win against the Fennux. If you lose the battle, you will also lose your Fennux! If you win the battle, you will obtain a starter version of the Fennux on the arena in DEN form, and of course you will be able to keep your current Fennux. No harm done, if you win!

If you are worried about losing a Fennux with this new feature, please do not make use of this feature – or find a Fennux that you are willing to risk. The higher your Fennux’ dueling tier is, the better chance you have at defeating the Fennux at the Capture Battle Arenas.

We have 5 arenas out on the sim right now, each with a different Fennux to attempt at capturing. If someone wins and obtains the Fennux, another person will have a chance to win the same type of Fennux. The only exception to this rule is if Team Fennux decides to switch up the Fennux that you battle (which we will do randomly).

You may not use the same dueling tier (or better) as the current Fennux on the arena, you are required to use a Fennux that is currently at least 1 dueling tier lesser than the Fennux on the arena. For example, if we set out Dueling Tier 5 Fennux to battle, you must use 4, 3, 2, or 1 dueling tier Fennux. We highly recommend using a dueling tier that is 1 lower than whatever our Fennux is on the arenas!

Here is a teleport location to the 5 arenas on the Fennux Main Sim:

Thanks for reading, and happy dueling!

FOR EVERY “RELAY” FENNUX WISHED IN THE WISHING WELL, TEAM FENNUX WILL DONATE L$100 TO RELAY FOR LIFE IN HONOR OF YOU!

You read that correctly. Each time you drop 12 dens into the Wishing Well in exchange for a RFL 2013 “Relay” coated Fennux, our company will donate L$100 to Relay for Life.

You can also purchase either the Holdable (hold in your arms) or Runnable (runs along-side you) for only L$95, and every single linden goes directly to Relay for Life. Buy as many as you want, they are transferable and only available for a limited time – and again, all proceeds go to benefit Relay for Life!

Hello Fennux Enthusiasts!

The Wishing Well has recently been upgraded to have a couple of new and exciting features.

In the event you try dropping in 12 of the same Ears, and/or Hair, and/or Tail, and/or Whiskers, and/or Eyes, and/or Gender, and/or Aggression, Dueling Tier, Max Size, Tier Level of Region (T1s, T2s, T3s, etc), Region – you will receive that exact same type of Fennux in return as a Wishing Well Limited Edition!

So if you’ve ever wanted to have an LE with Clipped Ears or maybe Cat Tail, you can guarantee that whatever LE comes out will at least have Clipped Ears or Cat Tail. This works with multi-traited Fennux as well.

THE KEY PART TO REMEMBER: YOU MUST DROP IN THE SAME TRAITED DEN ON EVERY WISHING WELL SLOT, OR THE SAME COATED DEN ON EVERY SLOT, OR THE SAME TIER LEVEL ON EVERY SLOT, ETC – OTHERWISE YOU WILL NOT GET “BETTER CHANCES” IF YOU ARE USING PARTIAL “INGREDIENTS”. YOU MUST USE 12 OF THE SAME TYPE OF FENNUX TO GUARANTEE IT COMING BACK OUT THE SAME.

If you put in 12x T2 Fennux (a mixture of Foxy, Sneaky and Stripes for example), you will be guaranteed to get a random region T2 LE in exchange.

If you put in 12x T2 Foxy Fennux (all Foxy, no other T2s), you will be guaranteed to get a T2 Western LE in exchange, so if you were trying to “mix it up” and get a different region besides a T2 Western LE – you must at least put 1 other type of T2 into the mixture.

If you put in 6x T2 Foxy with short hawks, and 6x T2 Foxy with No Hair, you will be guaranteed to get T2 Western LE in exchange with No Hair – short hawk is still possible but it’s not to be expected. Adding partial short hawks does not aid in your ability to get guaranteed short hawks out on the LE Den, only 12 of the same type of trait will trigger this new feature.

If you put in 12x T2 Foxy with short hawks, expect a T2 Western LE with Short Hawk in exchange.

If you put in 6x T2 Foxy with Short Hawks, and 6x T2 Foxy with Wolf Tail, expect a T2 Western LE with no traits at all. It’s possible to get SOME traits still, but adding partial short hawks and wolf tail does not aid in your ability to get a short hawk + wolf tail Fennux.

Some might ask “Is it possible to drop in a mixture of T3 Antlers and T3 Kenyas to attempt at getting a T3 Polar LE, T3 Eastern LE or T3 Amazon LE?” …and yes it is possible for this to happen – so long as you put 12x T3 into the Well and you make sure they are NOT all the same region, but do know that it’s also possible to get a T3 Saharan LE or T3 Western LE in exchange for 12 of them even if you mix up the regions, as Western and Saharan regions are always more populous than Polar, Eastern and Amazon.

Please understand that only discovered content is available from the Wishing Well – you cannot put in a mixture of T4 Fennux (in the future) in hopes of discovering the first T4 Amazon – it just doesn’t work in that way. Also, the only way to obtain a Mystery Region Fennux is to use 12x of them dropped into the well.

How ever these present features of wishing well will continue to work: Where ever there can be a T1 LE – there will be a slight chance at it being T2 LE. Where ever there can be Normal ears – there will be a slight chance at it being Wolf Ears. Where ever there can be Normal Tail – there will be a slight chance at it being Wolf Tail. Where ever there can be No Hair – there will be a slight chance at it being Short Hawk. But If you want these to be guaranteed upgradation, then follow the instructions above and choose your dens accordingly. A slight chance at a wishing-well-only special eye will also continue to exist.

I hope these examples clarify how our new Wishing Wells work, if you have any questions feel free to ask in The Fennux Group Chat. Of course you can always click the following link to visit the Official Fennux Sim.

Thanks for reading – and Happy Breeding,

-Team Fennux

Team Fennux is hosting a 100% Free Hunt @ The Fennux Sponsor Sims!

You will also notice the red circles above the sponsor images turn green each time you have found one of the hunt items.

So what do the hunt items look like? Please examine the photo above, you will notice a sparkly green Fennux Den, this is what you are looking for at each sponsor display area.

Can anyone join the hunt, even people who don’t own Fennux? YES! In fact, every single collectable item in this hunt has nothing to do with breeding / paying monthly fees / etc, it’s just completely free hunt items. (Head Pets, Running Pets, Grabbers and Holdables)

How long will this hunt last? We are starting it off on April 06, 2013 and plan to keep it going until April 20, 2013. (2 weeks)

The Easter 2013 Limited Edition Fennux (Eggy, Meadow and Chicky) are here!

NOTE: THE LE SPRING EYES SEEN ABOVE ARE VERY RARE, DO NOT EXPECT TO GET THEM, BUT IF YOU DO GET THEM – CONGRATULATIONS!

To find out more about how the Wishing Well system works, you can watch our informative video tutorial at the following page: Fennux Wishing Well Tutorial

Users can turn their extra Dens (12) into 1 Easter LE Fennux & 12 Days of Reserve Food by doing the following:

1) Place your 12 Fennux Dens on the Wishing Well, putting 1 Den on each wooden panel

2) Click the Wishing Well (try clicking on the snow around the rim)

3) It will ask you to confirm (YES or NO), pressing YES will drop all 12 Dens into the Well

4) An Inventory Offer will present itself to you, press KEEP to get your Easter LE Den, at this time you also will receive 12 Days (48 Kibbles) of Reserve Food, which is visible on your HUD instantly

And that’s all there is to it! Enjoy your Easter LE Fennux Den, and your 12 Days of Reserve Food!

IMPORTANT INFORMATION:

Yes there is a SMALL CHANCE to get “LE Spring Eyes”, but the odds are roughly about a 0.5% chance to obtain, so don’t expect to get them! The LE Spring Eyes can pass onto other coats, so even if you don’t get them from Wishing, you will have opportunities to obtain them in the Secondary Market later. If you look at the example picture above, the Fennux on the far right is sporting LE Spring Eyes.

Most Fennux however will have regular eyes from a starter den, very similar to Crafting – the only thing that is “LE” on most Easter LE Fennux is the over-ride of the Fennux Coat. It’s more-or-less exactly like Crafting, except for the fact the coat will not pass.
