+

+
+ For those who really want to know... +

+
+
+ What is there to say? Let's see. Well, I'm female, British, in my mid '50s, have a passion for cats (I'm + a foster-carer for the local Rescue Centre and if you're interested I have a site about my little ones + here ), + a love of reading (particularly humour), and an obsession with hex editing for all of the P.F.Magic + range of games. I have every single one of the Petz games, plus Oddballz and Babyz, including the + different versions (Mac Oddballz, International Petz 3 etc). I've hex-edited loads of stuff for them + over the years, starting back in 1995 with Dogz original. You edit the dogz breedfiles in Notepad, they + are just simple text files -- and I spotted that the later games have these text files too, just stuck + together with a load of other stuff in large resource files, which is why I've always extracted them and + edited them the way I do.
+
+ I believe that information should be freely available, plus I want others to enjoy my hobby as much as I + do, which is why I started to post "howto" messages back on the old Usenet newsgroups years ago. Abby + wrote to me and suggested that I gather them together and make tutorials, and the rest (as they say) is + history. I also believe that in a hobby such as ours, where we make and share add-ons for our favourite + games, we should do so freely and with joy. I never can understand the bickering that goes on about so + much, including copyright, in our community. We edit the programmers' original files without a + by-your-leave, so why should we be upset when others fiddle with our own files? All that is needed is a + suitable acknowledgement of our own work. Outright theft in a community like ours is another thing I + cannot understand -- after all, what is the pleasure in taking something that someone else made and + displaying it as your own?
+
+ Do I do anything else? Well, yes -- it's been a full, rich life so far and I spent many years of it in + interesting places outside the U.K. I've written some short stories for a satirical magazine, and a + couple of novels -- humorous fantasy/SF, probably not suitable for youngsters -- which are available for + reading somewhere on the Internet. I've dabbled in editing stuff in the various Creatures games, and + somewhere out there are my c307 genomes which used Slink's excellent c306 as base. Startopia -- I modded + some stuff for that, currently up at Slink's site along with my deep delvings into the original Sims + game files. Oh, and Aquazone -- a couple of edited files of mine and a "howto" are floating around the + Internet somewhere. But it's always the P.F.Magic series that I come back to, and hex-editing their + files that gives me most of my computerised fun. +

Below is a screenshot, taken after I had brought out one or more petz in all of: Dogz original, + Catz original, Oddballz, Petz II, Petz 3, Petz 4, Babyz, and Petz 5. Not only did they run perfectly together at + a normal speed, but also I was able to tend to each of the pets in the various games with no problems at all + either to the computer or the pets -- although my own brain nearly fried :-) The picture is completely + un-edited; all that's been done is to reduce the size and save as jpg instead of bmp. +

+ +

+ All games at once
+
+ In Babyz, you can see that Cyril's "eyeshadow" has been changed again, and he's getting along well with little + Laretha. In Petz 5 I'm testing Butterfly Chaser's latest creation (the Whazzit, not yet ready for release so + don't ask). In Petz 4 another Whazzit and a Buzzo are waiting by the mousehole, in Petz 3 my site's guardian + angel cat is playing with a recently-rescued friend, in Petz II I've got a Doberman test-pet and in Oddballz + dear old Honker has just been tootling for me. In Catz, the mouse has just caused the (still-unfinished and + therefore unreleased) Snowbo to fall over; and in Dogz, my faithful old Bootz is waiting for me to refill his + dish.
+ A note for those who are interested -- this was done on a Pentium III 600, with 384 megabytes of RAM, under + Windows 95 OSR2. The German version of Petz 3 doesn't open at the same time as the English version on my + computer -- it thinks it's the same game -- and the US version of Oddballz similarly doesn't open at the same + time as the UK version. +

+ Vista and Petz
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +

+ +

+ Here's proof that all the P.F.Magic games, including Babyz and Oddballz, and the Studio Mythos Petz 5, can be + run on a computer running VISTA (ugh). Below is a screenshot, taken after I had brought out one or more petz in + all of: Dogz original, Catz original, Oddballz, Petz II, Petz 3, Petz 4, Babyz, and Petz 5. As with the picture + on my "Pointless Info" page, the picture is completely un-edited; all that's been done is to reduce the size and + save as jpg instead of bmp. +

+ +

+ All games at once on Vista +

+ +

+ MyChi is having a well-earned meal in Dogz 1, Jiggles is enjoying a game with a "grubz" mouse in catz 1, + Snowball is being cute in the basket while Frosty runs around in Petz II, Pouncer is carrying her half-full + foodbowl around in Petz 3, Scamp is enjoying a rare moment of peace, happily kneading a cushion, in Petz 4, + Scaredy and Fluffy are larking about and waiting for the mouse in Petz 5, Vistatest is not too sure about the + jar of food in Babyz, and Caramba! is about to eat his Liqui-Food in Oddballz. +

+ +

+ Most of these games were simply copied across from my machine, so we haven't done tests to see if all of the + installation files work, but we have tested that it's possible to adopt new Pets in all the games. +

+ +

+ The two games which were actually installed properly were: the Dogz 1 game, installed from the demo on + Minibyte's site and then made into the full game with my fooler. Petz 4, installed from the 120-megabyte demo + (available on my site and elsewhere on the net), then "fooled" using Nicholas' Petza and finally run with a + Registry fix. +

+ +

+ All of the games from Petz II onwards, including Babyz, need a registry fix and (in most cases, anyway) + Nicholas' Petza; without those they will crash at some stage. +

+ +

+ Oddballz we think needs to have the XP fix -- we didn't try it without. Oddballz, Catz 1 and Dogz 1 need + files which go in the Windows and System directories and which you can find in my foolers. The only files which + are not at present in my foolers are the WinG dlls which you may or may not already have. If you get error + messages about missing files with Wing in the name, you can grab them from + here (click). Unzip them into your System or System32 directories. +

+ +

+ You can get the Registry fixes for Petz II, Petz 3 and petz 4 + here (click). Unzip them and then double-click on whichever + reg file is for your game. You may wish to open the reg file in Notepad first and change all the places where + you see, say, D:\\Games\\Petz3 to C:\\Program Files\\P.F.Magic\\Petz 3 or wherever you actually installed the + game. You can get the Registry fix for Petz 5 here (click). + Unzip it and move the Keys folder into your game's Resource folder, then double-click on the reg file -- but you + may wish first to open it in Notepad and, wherever you see D:\\Games\\Petz5\\ change it to, say, C:\\Program + Files\\UBI Soft\\Studio Mythos\\Petz 5\\ or wherever you installed the game. And finally, Babyz players can get + their registry fix here (click). Unzip it and move the Keys + folder into your game's Resource folder, then double-click on the reg file -- but you may wish first to open it + in Notepad and, wherever you see D:\\Games\\babyznew\\ change it to, say, C:\\Program Files\\Mindscape\\Babyz or + wherever you installed the game. +

+ +

+ A note for those who are interested -- this was done on a machine with Pentium D CPU 2.80 GHz processors and + 2.00 GB of Ram, under Vista Ultimate. +

+ Today The Mad Scientist presents the ultimate in inbreeding for your disgust or entertainment. The zipfile + contains the hidden "test" .LNZ from Petz 5's resource .dlls, and the pet which it creates. But being crazy of + course I go further than that; I then copied the pet, turned the copy into a boy, and thus bred the pet with + itself.
+ + _Cat_Chew family
+ + As you can see, the little lady isn't quite sure where those horns came from on her dainty little babe...
+ + The _Cat_Chew_ family for Catz 3, 4 or 5. +

+ + +

+ More crazy graftings! The Mad Scientist presents Cerberus, the snake-tailed 3-headed dog, for your delectation. + Actually, a pair of Cerberus family petz...
+ + Cerberus pet + Cerberus pet
+ + For Dogz 3, 4 or 5. The cute li'l baby is not included, awwww... + but, for those who want to breed with these petz (youmust be bonkers!!) here is + the .LNZ file, for use with my external-lnz Great Dane packages + which you can get from the "For LNZ-files 'n' easy-edits" pages; it will of course overwrite the normal Dane's + .LNZ. Read the readme in the easy-edit package if you don't know what to do with .LNZ files. +

+ + +

+ The Mad Scientist has taken to grafting things onto petz -- bwahahaha! She presents the Cat 'o' Nine Tails (and + three heads, she got really carried away). Cerberus, the snake-tailed 3-headed dog will be with us at a later + date.
+ + cat o nine tails + cat o nine tails

+ The mad scientist strikes again... Freeing your nursing mothers from the drudgery of the Nursery, allowing the + fathers to play or two mothers to chat while their broods play together. You can either + + do it yourself or you can download an + especially-modified exe file + + As a bonus, this modified exe contains three fixes; one allows your nursing mothers to come out of the Nursery + if they wish, the second provides the "import from Petz 4" menu item, and the third provides the Petz profile as + a menu item. I found it irritating having to partway open the carry-case in order to select a pet, also I + sometimes want to see pet data without taking out any pets. This menu item allows this. I also changed the + splash screen so that you know which exe you're using. Make sure that you keep your original somewhere safe -- + this one overwrites your original, and I take no responsibility if it crashes your game. It works fine in my + game, so if it doesn't in yours and you get abducted by aliens in white coats instead -- well, that's life.

+ + Note: if you get the multiple-cloned-babes effect, go to the Nursery, put mum away and then go back to another + scene. The "clones" will disappear. Or you can close the game and re-open it; they will have gone then too. If + you don't know what I'm talking about, then you're not being bothered by it and you need do nothing :-) +

+ + +

+ Modified Babyz Exe for Playpen access
+ + The mad scientist produces her ongoing testbed .exe file for Babyz. The idea was to eventually be able to get + the game to accept more playscenes, by avoiding the need to use the house icon which goes berserk if a + non-overwriting scene is added. As yet in my game I have not been able to get it to work for the Attic and + Nursery, so have not got as far as further scenes. It does have one feature that Babyz players might enjoy; the + Playpen and Desktop "scenes" are both usable. NOTE: It overwrites your original so please, folks, put yours + somewhere safe. The mad scientist takes no responsibility for anything from game-crashes through to + flame-throwers decimating your backyard and more;remember, she's crazy :-)

+ Read a whole bunch of the mad scientist's delvings into the .LNZ file. All the gory details are laid bare in a + minute dissection of the Key Texts (or commands), key-words and programmers' comments. This is not a tutorial or + a how-to, it is an explanation of all those mysterious gobbets of data inside the .lnz files. Mainly it's a Petz + breakdown, but Oddballz and babyz fans take note, most of what I describe in this is relevant to you also. Plus, + I shall be making similar breakdowns of the areas which are different, or specific only to, those games as soon + as I can. +

+ + +

+ Click here for the Scientist's Sprite insanity +

+ + +

+ I have been experimenting for many years to find the limits of what these games can take, and delving deep into + the files, dabbling my fingers in the genetic pool, gender-bending petz and generally creating strangenesses of + great peculiarity. And at last the mad-scientist brain has snapped and I present to you...

+ + Insane Calicoz + Insane Calicoz
+ + Insane Calicos for Petz 3 / + Petz 4 / + Petz 5
+ + To see the above breed in action, you will need the dogz part of the game and either the catz part of + the game or the "catz behaviours" package which I've got on my "Cat species in dogz" page. It will not work if + you only have catz or only have dogz. Hah! A true cross-breed! But please read the included Readme textfile. You + cannot adopt from this breed... So, included in the package are a pair of petz who are happy in their total + insanity. And for the soft-hearted, if you cannot bear the sight of Jilli and Jeffri tearing themselves apart, + also included in the package is a zip of the two of them restored to sanity. +

+ + +

+ And now for something completely different. The petz can breed and I include a baby, freshly separated from her + mother, in the zipfile; on the other hand, the wire Babyz doesn't breed but it does grow :-)

You can either - - do it yourself or you can download an - especially-modified exe file - - As a bonus, this modified exe contains three fixes; one allows your nursing mothers to - come out of the Nursery if they wish, the second provides the "import from Petz 4" menu - item, and the third provides the Petz profile as a menu item. I found it irritating - having to partway open the carry-case in order to select a pet, also I sometimes want to - see pet data without taking out any pets. This menu item allows this. I also changed the - splash screen so that you know which exe you're using. Make sure that you keep your - original somewhere safe -- this one overwrites your original, and I take no - responsibility if it crashes your game. It works fine in my game, so if it doesn't in - yours and you get abducted by aliens in white coats instead -- well, that's life.
- - petz 4 import in menu . - Petz profile in menu
- nursery-free family
- - Note: if you get the multiple-cloned-babes effect, go to the Nursery, put mum away and - then go back to another scene. The "clones" will disappear. Or you can close the game - and re-open it; they will have gone then too. If you don't know what I'm talking about, - then you're not being bothered by it and you need do nothing :-) -

- Modified Babyz Exe for Playpen - access
- - The mad scientist produces her ongoing testbed .exe file for Babyz. The idea was to - eventually be able to get the game to accept more playscenes, by avoiding the need to - use the house icon which goes berserk if a non-overwriting scene is added. As yet in my - game I have not been able to get it to work for the Attic and Nursery, so have not got - as far as further scenes. It does have one feature that Babyz players might enjoy; the - Playpen and Desktop "scenes" are both usable. NOTE: It overwrites your original so - please, folks, put yours somewhere safe. The mad scientist takes no responsibility for - anything from game-crashes through to flame-throwers decimating your backyard and more; - remember, she's crazy :-)

- Read a whole bunch of the mad scientist's delvings into the .LNZ file. All the gory - details are laid bare in a minute dissection of the Key Texts (or commands), key-words - and programmers' comments. This is not a tutorial or a how-to, it is an explanation of - all those mysterious gobbets of data inside the .lnz files. Mainly it's a Petz - breakdown, but Oddballz and babyz fans take note, most of what I describe in this is - relevant to you also. Plus, I shall be making similar breakdowns of the areas which are - different, or specific only to, those games as soon as I can. -

- I have been experimenting for many years to find the limits of what these games can - take, and delving deep into the files, dabbling my fingers in the genetic pool, - gender-bending petz and generally creating strangenesses of great peculiarity. And at - last the mad-scientist brain has snapped and I present to you...

- - Insane Calicos for Petz 3 / - Petz 4 / - Petz 5
- - To see the above breed in action, you will need the dogz part of the game - and either the catz part of the game or the "catz behaviours" package - which I've got on my "Cat species in dogz" page. It will not work if you only have catz - or only have dogz. Hah! A true cross-breed! But please read the included Readme - textfile. You cannot adopt from this breed... So, included in the package are a pair of - petz who are happy in their total insanity. And for the soft-hearted, if you cannot bear - the sight of Jilli and Jeffri tearing themselves apart, also included in the package is - a zip of the two of them restored to sanity. -

- - -

- And now for something completely different. The petz can breed and I include a baby, - freshly separated from her mother, in the zipfile; on the other hand, the wire Babyz - doesn't breed but it does grow :-)

+ This is an archive of all the items that I have ever hex-edited or converted for the various P.F.Magic Petz, + Oddballz and Babyz games. It also includes my stuff for Petz 5 which was created in 2002 by Studio Mythos and is + in the same style as the older games. The websites for these games are now gone -- the new Dogz, Catz etc games + which you see at Ubisoft's Petz site, and the various girly + games for Nintendo DS at their "Babyz.net" site are in no way + similar to the original Petz etc games and are not covered in my tutorials. I also do not have downloads for any + Ubisoft games created from 2006 onwards. All that I have for you of those later games is my + Info Only page, which may be useful for anyone + wanting to "hex" or modify the PC versions of those games. +

+ +

+ People with Dogz-only or Catz-only parts of the Petz games please read
+ If you want one of my breedz, please don't ask me to convert between dogz and catz games -- instead, download + the relevant package from my "Cat species in dogz" or "Dog species in catz" pages, read the instructions + carefully and install it. That will fool the game, and you can then download and play with my various species + etc. +

+ +

+ NOTE for site owners:
+ please do not directly link to the files or pictures at my site. I have no objection to anyone putting my + breedz up elsewhere, provided that you put an acknowledgement also that they are my work. The same applies to my + tutorials, although a link instead to my tutorials page would be a better idea as I am always in process of + updating them. +

+ PLEASE READ IF YOU HAVE DOWNLOAD PROBLEMS
+ or my files confuse you:
+ If you have problems downloading a file from this site... right-click on it and choose "save link as" or "save + target as" (whichever your browser says), follow the dialogue box which opens in order to save it to a place on + your hard drive (usually the Desktop), then open it afterwards. Please do not write to me about any files which + "have nothing in them" unless you have tried this method.
+ The Petz 3, 4 and 5 breedfiles are all sound-stripped. I've produced external sounds for all the original breedz + as well as most of my "species" or "fantasy" breedz so that you can choose whether to download the sounds or + play with the files mute. +

+ +

+ Important Information
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 + Windows XP, Windows 2000 (or NT), Windows ME users, and people who have some update to their system that is + beyond mine -- if you have some problem with my breedz that I cannot duplicate on either my Windows 95 or my + husband's plain Windows 98 system, then I cannot help you. If I am able to duplicate the problem, then there is + something wrong with the file that I can (I hope) fix and of course I shall do my best to do so. If I am not + able to duplicate it, then there is nothing wrong with the file and it is some mysterious problem related to an + incomprehensible alchemy between your operating system and/or game and my file so I cannot fix it. Sorry. The + only thing I can suggest is a possible fix for you to do for yourself; you'll find it + here. Windows XP with SP2 has special new quirks, woop-de-doo. WinXP + is bleurgh and Vista -- AAAARGH!! *hugs nice comfy Win95 setup, warts an' all* +

+ +

+ It came to my attention a while ago that there were Petz 5 versions of some of my breedz at Nicky's Petzfriends + site, and that those versions have wrong ID numbers etc. Nicky and I eventually reached an agreement which + should fix any problems that people may have with this. Read here if you would + like to know more about it, and about how to get your pets to breed if you downloaded one of the "conversions" + from her site.
+ Please note that you do not need to convert any of my breedz to Petz 5, I make them all available for + that game myself. I shall not convert anyone else's breedz, I do not have the time, but I have "howtos" up for + you to try or you can ask for help on the various forums. +

+ +

+ Mac users (or anyone else with this problem) if you download files and get gibberish appearing in your browser, + ending up with a corrupted file when you try to save it, try either downloading with a download manager or look + in your browser's cache and copy it directly from there. The copy that's in your cache should not be corrupted. +

+ +

+ What's Happening Here
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 + I checked through this again, and a lot of stuff has changed, so this is the latest state of play: +

+ +

+ There's a bunch of odd bits and pieces that I need to finish off, but I have no idea when I'll get the time to + do so. Foolers for all of the games are now available at my Boardwalkerz site. +

+ +

+ The Oddballz-to-petz line -- still got a bunch of Transformations to do. I intend to put them together as two or + three more all-in-one breedz. These will probably be the last "full" breedz I shall ever make, plus one breed + that I promised years ago and will probably never be finished, for someone who has already left the Petz + Community 8-} +

+ +

+ I need to finish off the LNZ breakdown chunks, with special attention to the Oddballz info which has been sadly + neglected. I also need to gather together various other little howtos, and the breakdown of a .pet and .baby + file, and make them as comprehensible as possible (hah!) so y'all can fix petz, game-crashes etc. +

+ +

+ I no longer need to fix the oversize-pet corruptions, thanks to Nicholas' Tools. Yay for Petza! +

+ +

+ I've continued to tidy up my tutorials pages; I really hope that people can find things now. The actual + tutorials are mostly written some time ago and newer available tools etc (such as Tinker, LNZPro 2, my easy-edit + kits) have made things easier, so some of the tuts are more complicated than they should be, but they are mostly + still valid. +

+ +

+ Through lack of time, and because I don't breed or show petz, I no longer research 2nd-gen problems, so it's up + to all you guys and gals to find out any new quirks in that area. +

+ +

+ I also do not, and never shall, make "exclusives" for individuals. Everything that I make is downloadable for + all. To be honest, I cannot understand this modern fashion for exclusivity. My ethos has always been to make + information and game modifications free for all. +

+ +

+ Real Life and a steady stream of sweet, vulnerable foster-cats and kitties clamour for my attention almost + constantly. Hexing and these games have to come second, and can only be done in small snatches of free time. So + I don't take breed-making requests any more, I just don't have the time. Really, the answer has to be "no" to + requests. However, anyone can try it nowadays, as there is a choice of several tools, including LNZPro and Pet + Workshop, as well as the utilities at MK&C, Resource Hacker, and my own Easy-edit packages. +

+ +

+ There are lots of good hexers out there on the Internet, some of whom are kind-hearted or will do requests, so + if you cannot bear to try hexing yourself, just ask around the various message-boards and forums. Look in my + links pages for some forums that you can start with. I know the links pages are badly out of date as of December + 2006, but I don't have time to fix them right now. +

+ +

+ Acknowledgments
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ I'd like to thank Tom for the wonderful web pages that he maintained at the Petzwarehouse for so long, and I'd + like to thank Abby of the + PetzWarehouse + for her patience and for providing the space to store my files for so many years. +

+ +

+ Big thanks also to my pal Sue of + Petz Boardwalk + for coming to my rescue in the hard times, generously mirroring my lummox of a site, and finally hosting the + whole shebang. +

+ +

+ Thanks to Misty (aka Acid Chaos), for giving me the kick I needed to get interested in site making. Of her + original design all that is left is the calculation of graphic sizes on the breedz pages -- left to myself, the + graphics would have been all different sizes! Her original design was beautiful, but I couldn't see it in my + favourite browser so in the end it had to go. But I am very grateful for her work, as without it I might never + have repaired this site when we moved to the new server. +

+ + 2006 and later Catz, Dogz and Horsez games
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ As of late 2006 and beyond... Just a note to anyone who potters along to Petz.com or Babyz.net and sees + the new games that were released recently.
+ + Most of you already knew that a bunch of virtual life games have been released by UbiSoft since 2006, for + various consoles and for the PC. Hamsterz Life, Hamsterz 2 and Bunnyz are apparently only for the Nintendo DS, + Horsez and Horsez 2 are released for NDS and PS2 as well as for PC, and there are some wildlife "petz" games + also for the NDS centered around Tigerz and Dolphinz. various Catz and Dogz games have been released for mobile + phone, Gameboy Advance, NDS, PS2, Wii and PC. Although most of these would be playable and, presumably, moddable + on the PC using emulators, it's the native PC versions that I'm talking about here. If anyone wants to mod, or + hex, the NDS or mobile phone versions of the games you'll find very active modding communities amongst the + emulator scene. There is also a PS2 emulator for anyone who wants to try that, and there may well be a modding + community for PS2 games, but I don't believe that there is any way as yet to play a Wii game on an emulator. +

+ +

+ Although they are named Catz and Dogz or Catz 2 and Dogz 2, the latest "Petz" games for + Windows are not really part of the Petz series we know and love.
+ They are not really a "Petz 6" although for convenience people have referred to them that way; the first two + were also known as Catz 2006 and Dogz 2006 for a while. There are many differences between these latest games + and the ones that we have so far enjoyed, the most obvious being that the catz and dogz are 3D and that you have + to earn points, or coins, to get even the basics that your pet will need. I'm sure a lot of people will enjoy + the games, but they are not a part of the original series and you will not be able to import your petz from Petz + 5 or earlier. If you enjoy these games, you might like to check out Lost Sock + Games titles -- Puppy Luv, Kitty Luv, Pony Luv and Hollywood Pets are very similar in many ways. +

+ +

+ As regards modifying the games, however, things have been made easy enough for us "hexers" apart from the 3D + models. The files used by the game are: +

+ +

+ LUA, INI, and TXT files all of which are text files which can be edited in Notepad.
+ You'd have to get used to what all the various column headers and key words mean, but there's no harm in + experimenting -- so long as you keep backups of everything of course. The saved-game files, which is where your + pets are stored, are .sav files, also just text files, which can be edited. They are stored in your
+ C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Ubisoft\Catz (or Catz2)
+ folder or
+ C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Ubisoft\Dogz (or Dogz2). +

+ +

TGA files which are a recognisable format for most paint programs.

+ +

WAV and MP3 files which are editable sounds.

+ +

+ DDS files, which are actually editable with the correct tools. They can easily be edited using a plug-in + which works with either Paint Shop Pro or Photoshop, available for free from Nvidia's site -- the is dds.8bi
+ http://developer.nvidia.com/docs/IO/1176/ATT/dds.8bi +

+ +

+ GR2 files, which are "Granny 3D" files. These are not so easy to edit and are, in a way, the 3D "bones" of the + game. Of course anyone who has the Granny 3D SDK would be able to edit them, but that's beyond the pocket of + most of us I'd have thought! I have heard rumours that there is a Milkshape plug-in that allows these to be + edited, but if not there is at least a tool that allows them to be viewed, obtainable for free from the Granny 3D site
+ Update as of mid-2008 -- there is now a free way to extract the GR2 files so that they can be edited in a + 3D modelling program. A close friend of mine called Topper Carson has the games and he found that there are + some amazing people who have been picking away at the Gr2 files which so many games use these days. For + useful tools and info pop along to the "Decode + Gr2" site. So theoretically you should be able to modify anything that you wish in these games. +

+ +

+ The Horsez game, as with Catz 2006 and Dogz 2006 and beyond, is not a real part of the Petz series. You're + supposed to care for your chosen horse as well as enter it for shows and have some adventures with it, and + the environment is a 3D one. For anyone who has the game and wants to edit it, the graphics are in the form + of editable .tga files which you should be able to edit in a reasonable paint package, and the "bones" of it + are in the form of .nmo files which will have been created via Virtools. If you have Virtools of course + you'll be able to edit them. I don't know if there is a cheaper utility for editing such things, but if + you're keen you could have a look around Google. The saved-game files are in a directory off the Horsez one, + called Save, and the files in there are .txt files and therefore should be easy to edit. You'd have to get + used to what all the various column headers and key words mean, but there's no harm in experimenting -- so + long as you keep backups of everything of course. +

+ +

+ Babyz players, the only new games available for you from Ubisoft now seem to be only for the NDS. So far + there is "Imagine Babies" (also called "Imagine Babyz" in the US) and possibly due for release in September + 2008, "Imagine Baby Club". The first one is probably closer to the original Babyz experience, but in my + opinion neither seems like a good replacement. They are part of the extremely girly Imagine series for + NDS
+ A footnote for Babyz players -- there is a new game out called "Bratz Babyz", which starts up with a + "Babyz.exe", which you might stumble across when looking for updates etc. As far as I know, it is not a + UbiSoft game and it is certainly not in any way a new kind of Babyz game, plus the Babyz.exe will not work + with your old favourite babyz game. +

+ +

+ I doubt that I'll be editing any of these newer PC games. Even apart from the fact that they aren't likely to + work under my beloved Win 95, I don't really have the time even to play these days, and as for my skill in + editing graphics, well... let's just say I'm "graphically challenged", LOL. Of course I'd have no trouble + cheating in the catz and dogz games, as the saved-game (i.e. pet) files are just LUA files -- in other + words, they are editable in Notepad. +

+ +

Enjoy

+ For people who are interested in such things, since 2006 the rather complex ownership of the games is as + follows. The Petz titles are now trademarks owned by "Ubisoft Entertainment". The mobile phone versions of + Petz, Catz and Dogz have been released by Gameloft. The DS Catz games were developed by Powerhead Games + while the DS and GBA Dogz games and the Catz GBA game are copyright to MTO Inc. For the Wii and PS2 the Dogz + and Catz games are copyright to YUKE’S Co. as well as Ubisoft. For the PC, the Dogz and catz games were + developed by ImaginEngine which is a division of Foundation 9 Entertainment.
It's all a long way from the + day in 1995 when P.F. Magic created and put up for download their own unique and exciting game "Dogz". You + could download it and try it, and if you liked it you could buy a key online -- which also was a new concept + back then. It was so popular that it was also then released for the Apple Mac in 1996. +

+ Thanks to Sue of Petz Boardwalk for so generously + providing mirror space for so many months, and then for taking on the full bandwidth burden of my monster of + a site when Abby could no longer do so. You're a special lady, Sue! My enormous thanks also to Abby of the + Petzwarehouse for hosting my site for all those years.
+ Thanks to our amazing Minibyte, I now have a full mirror of this site at her domain, thank you Minibyte!!
+ If my site goes down at any time -- woah, that would be quite a day! -- pop along to this page, where + I'll keep you informed of whatever is going on. +

+ +

+ 18 Mar 2010
+ Wow, I hear you say, it lives! Well, in a way... I still care about this site and the old Petz games, but I + have no time. This update is a small bit of maintenance -- the page for the Petz 5 backup CD now has some + necessary Catz dlls. You couldn't get catz to load on it before, but with these dll files you should be able + to. And the links page -- I have kept the old pages as an archive but now, when you click on the "links and + contact" it takes you to a simple page with urls on it that I have checked. Plus, I have a new sister site + :) Oh yes, and now that Daniel's site is down, I've added the original bunny and pig file downloads to the + "catz in dogz" and "dogz in catz" pages. I'm very sad to see his site down again, and am not sure of exactly + what is "broken" on this site of mine because of it. I will try to find broken links and fix them, but if + you find such a link please drop me an email. The mail is still the hex-help at hornsc clara co uk one. +

+ +

+ 20 Aug 2009
+ Wow, nearly a year later, an update! Well actually I've been adding odd things here and there for a while + now, but not really "Carolyn's Creations" so I've not been mentioning them. But people who are having + trouble searching for everything for the game foolers are getting the odd pleasant surprise if they keep + their eyes open; I'm hoping that people who have lost or damaged irreplaceable CDs will find them helpful + also. +

+ +

+ I have also uploaded what you would need in order to be able to play with Petz Player files, such as + Phantarella on my main page, Babyz player files such as the ones on my "play online" Babyz page, and perhaps + most important, to go into the Catz 1 shrine! ;-) +

+ +

+ Last but not least, the very big news; I now have a full mirror of this giant of a site! Bookmark this link. Huge thanks to Minibyte!! +

+ +

+ 30 Sep 2008
+ I know, I know, I hardly ever update these days. I really don't have the time, but I still love the old + Petz, Babyz and Oddballz games so I've not abandoned you :-) No new hexings for you, but for Babyz players I + have zipped up the ViaVoice files so that people who have been having + problems with downloading the individual files can get them, plus on that page you will see a link to help + those of you with damaged or lost CDs. Also there are a few links to creative and useful sites on my "small but beautiful" links page. I have put a little more + information on the new "petz" games -- the ones that Ubisoft now calls Catz 2 and + Dogz 2. These are in no way like the older Petz II game of course, but the info is there for completeness. + It's a real nuisance that UbiSoft have chosen to call their new 3D pet games Catz, Dogz, Catz 2 and Dogz 2. +

+ +

+ 15 May 2008
+ Just a really tiny thing -- a new link on my "small but + beautiful" links page :-) I know people have written to me before asking for links to be updated; + forgive me, I have had various things such as computer crashes over the past few months and am not now able + to find the messages. If you want a link changed, please write to me again. +

+ +

+ 03 May 2008
+ It's like a bus, isn't it -- you wait for ages and then two come along at once ;-) Okay, the site should now + be complete, including the FinFin and Petz4 demo downloads. As far as I can see, everything is as it was + before the site's foundations got slipped from under it. Nothing new, and still a messy monster of a site, + but hey, the "olds" are back. +

+ +

+ 02 May 2008
+ Site is back up and running!
+ Wow. Almost a year since last we spoke. And even now this is not an update -- it's just a note that the site + has been fixed after a few weeks of downtime. I think everything has been fixed apart from Finfin and the + Petz 4 demo, I hope so anyway. The Petz 4 demo and Finfin downloads I hope to fix tomorrow. Please note what + I say above, if my site goes down again pop along to this page (click) + at Blueyonder, where I hope to be able to keep you informed of whatever is going on. +

+ +

+ 30 June 2007
+ Just a few tweaks to a couple of the foolers, and some links to other places of Petz interest, for you + today. My computer play time has narrowed down to almost zero while I bottlefeed some grey furries... First + up, The Petz5 Palace has moved so + I've changed the link on my "Small is Beautiful" page and I've fixed up one or two other links on a couple + of the links pages. Next, I have a new links page for PetzHexz which is there with its affiliates to help with Petz and other virtual life + games -- and the Virtual Life forum is back up!
+ Next, for Babyz fooler fans I have + put up some files from the unpacked Babyz demo for those of you who can't get the demo to install. Also + on the ViaVoice fix page, I've tried to make things a little clearer. For + people who wanted the Petz 3 playscene Petz Vet and had trouble with the patchfile, I've uploaded the full + scene on the Old Petz 3 + Scenespage 3. That's the lot for now. +

+ +

+ 10 June 2007
+ As always, in a huge rush. I have for you the abandonware game Fin Fin
+ This update is not actually a Petz item nor is it a Carolyn's Creation, but it's a game that has been dumped + by its craetors and is too cute to lose -- and Sue has kindly agreed to host it. I don't provide any help + with getting it running, but I do give a link on the download page to a very helpful site and forum. +

+ +

+ Approx. 20 April 2007
+ Wups, I uploaded some bits and pieces a few days ago and forgot to update this What's New. Things in Real + Life here are going like crazy, so the site tends to get a bit neglected but uploads still do happen now and + then. Let's see... I put up a "Pointless Info 2" page to show that all the games can be made to work in + Windows Vista -- an Operating System that I won't touch of course, it's even worse than XP, but I thought + you'd be interested. I've made it easier to use the Petz II demo fooler, it has a whole page to itself now. + A tweak or two on the Tutorials pages, can't remember in detail now exactly what. And some items for Babyz + players and hexers on the "newest babyz" page. Sorry that updates are so random and far apart, but really I + do stuff for the site as and when I can. I seem to have lost my latest notes on sites which I promised to + add to my links pages, my deepest apologies to anyone who was expecting a link to go up but really my links + pages are horribly out of date these days. +

+ +

+ 18 March 2007
+ It can't be March already?? Well, a lot has happened so far this year but very little of it has been + petz-related for me. All I have for you this time is an updated link and a tweak or two on my tutorials page + (a bit more info in my "what to do if petz crashes" and "what to do if Babyz crashes" howtos) and my Petz 4 + demo-fooler page (get to it via my Mad Scientist page). The reason for the demo-fooler update is because it + seems that demo-download sites now check to see what part of the world you live in before letting you + download the demo, and if your area isn't right they won't let the download start. That is plain evil -- + what the heck has happened to the Internet?? Gah. Oh, and I realised I'd accidentally removed the + Phantarella player link from my main page when I moved to Boardwalkerz, so she's back on the main page + again.
+ For those interested in my fostercats, Paddlepat didn't make it through. Poor baby. His sisters were spayed + this week and, thank heaven, it seems that they don't have the same latent disease that he had. They are + lively and healthy. I am now running the "adopt-a-cat" scheme which helps to bring in some much-needed cash for the Cat Register + and Rescue, so my time is now even more limited. And a wonderful thing happened which I'd like to shout to + the heavens, but I can't put it on the sites, aaaargh. +

+ +

+ 09 February 2007
+ Just to let you know I'm still here, but 2007 is being a bit of a pain so not much is updated. I did a tiny + update to the Oddballz and oddballz fooler pages a couple of weeks ago + but am blowed if I can remember what exactly. Updated my "new links" page. And + today I have a great new sister site -- Miranda's PAC, which will + be updated shortly with new breedz etc, so keep an eye on it! That's it for now. I've got a very very sick + cat at the moment, PaddlepatPaddlepat needs all my care and attention but he probably won't + survive, so please keep the wee fellow in your thoughts and prayers. +

+ +

+ 07 January 2007
+ Already the year is starting to zoom along... But I have a small update for Babyz players -- kitchen magnets separated. Sorry that's it for now, I have a new cat in who + needs plenty of attention. +

+ +

+ 02 January 2007
+ Woah, another year has started... Happy New Year! Just another small update for Petz 4 players a bunch of un-hidden toyz. It doesn't include the ones which don't have on-shelf + graphics, nor does it include the four gemstones. I may get those up soon, if Real Life doesn't take off too + fast. And for Petz 3, 4 and 5 people who like to dabble in editing the binary parts of petz with a hex + editor, I've put a little more info up on the Rough Pet Info page. +

+ +

+ 31 December 2006
+ Happy Hogmanay!! I have one small updates for you -- a howto on Trotting and Floofing. wrote the thing ages ago and then + forgot to upload it because LNZPro had a tick-box for it. But it seems that doesn't really work, so here's + how to do it manually. Including how to make your chinchilla Persians trot, LOL. +

+ +

+ 28 December 2006
+ I hope your Yuletide is going well -- that the celebrations continue and that the coming weekend will + produce a great hogmanay. I have one or two very small updates for you -- a howto on changing the Yarn Ball tail colour, a page of new links and a bit more on Ubisoft's latest "Petz" + games including info about the Windows Horsez. Finally, for those of you who are interested in my + fostercats, there's updates at that site too. +

+ +

+ 22 December 2006
+ My hearty thanks to Sue for the lovely new splash page that she has made for me, and for the terrific new + link banner and button, which are now of course on my links page -- although I've not managed to update it + apart from that...
+ a banner
+
+ a button
+
+ Wishing you all a very happy holiday season and a joyous christmas, Hanukkah, New Year, Solstice -- or + whatever else you enjoy celebrating at this time of year. Me, I like to just sit and listen to the world + turn on its axis :-) May 2007 be a good year for us all, and a fun year for Petz and modding. I now have a + wordy little treatise on What IS "hexing?" -- MODDING! +

+ +

+ 16 December 2006
+ Nothing new for you at all today, I'm so sorry -- well, apart from the Babyz + ViaVoice fix which I uploaded a while ago and forgot to mention -- I've not even managed to get the + links I promised to update for various wonderful site-owners all fixed up, I promise I'll try to get that + done on my next update. All that's happening this time is that my site is moving over fully now to the + mirror that Sue provided for several months. Abby has been wonderful for hosting my stuff for so long after + she lost interest in Petz, and Sue has been a trojan for seamlessly taking over the bandwidth burden. For + anyone who has been linking directly to various pages at my Petzwarehouse site, such as the Babyz colour + chart, I'm sorry -- the link will have broken. Come along to my site here at Boardwalkerz for all the information and charts that used to be there. +

+ +

+ 01 December 2006
+ Still nothing really for you -- but I do have a brief note about the latest Virtual life games from Ubisoft + here . They really are not a part of the Petz series, but for completeness I + mention them. +

+ +

+ 14 November 2006
+ Another month on, and nothing much for you -- but for Babyz fans I have three versions of Stewie and three + different "cow bells" for them to wear on my Newest Babyz page. Real Life and my kitties are taking so much of my time, bless + the furry ones. +

+ +

+ 19 October 2006
+ Sorry it's been so long... and even now there's nothing new really, but I've adjusted a few pages to make + things a little easier to find -- I hope. I've put the "if you can't download you're at the wrong place" + info even easier to find as well as trying to make things such as the Babyz Fooler easier to follow. Also + not new, but just to let anyone who needs help with Tinker or LNZPro or Petza/Babyza know -- the link to his + download site is on my Nicholas' Tools page, along with links to useful info. My links pages are woefully + unkempt now, I'm sorry -- I can't face going through it all but I hope to adjust the most obvious and add an + extra page of fresh, interesting sites soon. I've simply not been getting the time to do things properly -- + take a look at my fostercats site for some idea of how busy I've been. And a lot has happened + even since I updated there, LOL! +

+ +

+ 30 July 2006
+ Yes, I know, I've not updated for two months -- I can't begin to tell you how busy things have been here, so + I've not updated either this site or my fostercats one in all that time. As for this update, it's just for + oddballz fans. Because Daniel's site is down and now, it seems, also Don's Amberoddballz, plus nowhere else + on the net seems to have the demos, I've uploaded a demo and the official breedz to this site, also Ron + Tigat's Oddballz Eggz Scrambler. You will find these things on the Oddballz Fixes and Oddballz + Fooler pages.
+ Also uploaded on the new p2, p3, p4 and p5 pages are the skorch breedfiles for Catz games. They are on the + relevant New Breedz pages, and the sound files are on the species sounds page. These were once exclusive to + Daniel's site but since I created them and his site is down they have come home to me.
+ I wanted to do more, but that's it for now. Hopefully not so long before the next update. Must dash. +

+ +

+ 21 May 2006
+ Sorry, a late update and I've not got much for you -- Real Life has been getting in the way big-time and + I've only managed to update my My foster-cat site since I last updated here -- and even there I'm not up to date. And + I'm not managing to do half of what I've been promising people on this update, sorry. But there are some + little things.
+ A bunch of experimental babyz, and more of my "Harem set" on the Newest Babyz page. Yes, I know there aren't any pictures and that + I should have the harem clothes on the clothes page. I don't have time to do it right!
+ On the Team creations page you'll + find a new Catz breed made from Casey Miller's pet. Also there, my few Unibreedz -- Artie, Honkie and + Sauropod -- should be fixed for cross-breeding as they were re-done with the latest LNZPro.
+ I've put the catz 1 demo up for download on my Catz 1 demo fooler page.
+ If you go to my sister site, Sue Briley's Babyz + Punked, you'll find there a couple of unusual babyz and a babyz clothing item, for Naturists, made by + myself.
+ I've got a couple of great cyberpets from Dulua Land up on my Cyberpets page.
+ NOT YET done -- a whole bunch of howtos, which will eventually go on a "pot-luck" page, more half-done hexed + stuff, and fixing up my links pages. I don't know when these will get done, but one thing I will try to get + fixed and up soon is Miranda's brilliant sounds for Kirby. +

+ +

+ 03 March 2006
+ As always later than intended, but I added what I believe to be the final soundfixes to the Babyz soundfix for XP page. The new downloads and replacements are + marked with the date beside them, so if you downloaded most of the files before today, just download those + which are marked. My friend gave the whole thing a quick test, and with any luck this will prevent any + sound-related freezes in your game now. Remember, people, you do need to also download 9 toyz from + Twilight's site -- the link is clearly on my soundfix page. And yay for Sandi of Forever Babyz -- she gave an + award to myself and Twilight, and I'm displaying it with pride :-) Thank you so much!
+ +

+ +

+ 27 February 2006
+ Well, I fell over today and twisted and bruised me poor arthritic old bones, so not as much done as I'd + hoped. But I have a couple of great breedz for you on the Team Creations, "With Sue Briley and Nintendo-6444" page,
+
+ and yesterday and today I added to the Babyz soundfix for XP -- + have not been able to test the latest fixes myself yet but have had good reports so far. I am intending to + fine-tune the soundfix over the next day or two. +

+ +

+ 25 February 2006
+ I know, I know, I've not done anything much this month so far. Real Life has been taking almost all my time. + All I have for you today is a Babyz soundfix for XP, but with + any luck that'll at least make many of the Babyz Commumity happy. +

+ +

+ 07 February 2006
+ Once again, I've not managed to update as I wanted to. I've been having some Real Life difficulties, so + updates are of necessity going to be slow for the near future -- but they will happen, truly. But for now, + great news! Not only do we have a new version of Tinker, but also + Nicholas has his + own site. The latest versions of his software will always be found there :-) Also there are some updates + on the links pages. +

+ +

+ 28 January 2006
+ Yes, I know -- I've not updated in ages. There have been all sorts of Real Life crises, all getting resolved + okay but taking time, so all my wonderful hexing plans have had to wait. The Great Present Caper is of + course finished, but I'm making my donations for Petz games available for you all. You can download them + when you find the picture of a present. Also downloadable now, from my babyz toyz pages, is the Christmas + Spoon that I made for DRN's Advent Calendar. I've fixed up some items on my links pages, and got a new + "Sister". And finally, some weird and wacky babyz for your downloading pleasure on the pasted-heads page.
+
+ Coming soon (I hope) will be some "Team Creation" breedz, for some of which I just need to get the pages + done. +

+ +

+ 02 January 2006
+ Nicholas has updated Petza to fix the Petz II and Babyz bugs. It works + beautifully now -- go get it!! That's it for today, but pretty good all the same :-) +

+ +

+ 01 January 2006
+ Happy New Year!!
+ So I didn't get the hexing time I'd hoped for this past week... But we have from the wonderful Nicholas -- + another new version of Petza from his Nicholas' Tools pages. This + update, version 2.0.2, fixes some problems for Petz 3, 4 and 5 players. On my machine it crashes in Babyz + and Petz II, so I've left 2.0.1 up for you as well just in case the same happens with you. I've also got + some changes on my links pages, a new sister, and a changed link to Miranda's Kirby page on my P3,4,5 LNZ + breedz page. +

+ +

+ 26 December 2005
+ The Great Present Caper is apparently delayed until tomorrow. Should be good anyway! And now, from Nicholas + -- a new version of Petza from his Nicholas' Tools pages. This update, + version 2.0.1, fixes the "weather" bug for Petz 5 players! +

+ +

+ 24 December 2005
+ The Great Present Caper should be under way -- good hunting! The big Christmas present for you at this site + today is from Nicholas -- a new version of Petza from his Nicholas' Tools + pages. There's some good stuff in it, including a great new feature for Babyz players; you can at last add + new playscenes! Remember that you will need to make them non-overwriting with their own name and ID numbers + of course. Apart from that, my Cyberpet has grown up at last, there are a + couple of updated links, and I've had a nice time with my "gifts from friends" pages. Yes, I meant to get a lot of hexed items up, but in the + end I only managed to complete some presents for the Great Present Caper. Am hoping for some peaceful days + over this coming week to finish off other goodies. Merry Yueltide! +

+ +

+ 07 December 2005
+ Just the Great Present Caper notice above, and a couple of updated links; Miranda's PAC on the main links page , and Tigger's site on the babyz + links page. +

+ +

+ 04 December 2005
+ The last of the demo-foolers is now online, thanks to Daniel! This time it's the turn of Mac players of the + games. Get the + Catz 1 demo fooler , and the Dogz 1 demo + fooler -- and last but not least, the Oddballz demo + fooler! Now everyone can join the fun :-) +

+ +

+ 03 December 2005
+ Another one of my toyz converted on my petz 5 page -- the freedom fish to + overwrite your fish bowl. I'll be converting the playscene for it soon, but that's not done yet. The big + thing for you today is the Catz 1 demo fooler (yay!) and my own Dogz 1 demo fooler, which allows you to go back to the adoption + centre and take Daphne's quiz. I have captured the flavour of the Catz 1 site as it was when the game first + came out, complete with some little surprises, a find-it and the part which I personally adored -- the + VRML temple. I totally loved that thing, and I can still play it on my old + browser. You may not be able to see it, which would be a shame, but I do have links to viewers on that page. + If you can install the Cosmo player, that would be optimum. If you do manage to play it, the links within it + have been updated to links that actually work. Also, all actual links on the pages should lead to + interesting things. Anyway, have fun! +

+ +

+ 28 November 2005
+ Managing to get some stuff done at last. Some conversions... The Secret Wood, with its toyz, for you on the + Petz 5 Playscene page. Some of my toyz converted on my petz 5 page, including a gem hairball for dracoz (I intend to improve the P3 and + P4 ones some day too). An exciting new toy for petz II -- fishes swimming in + and out of a tank, yay! I intend to make a Petz 3 version of that soon. Also for Petz II, the Fishie breed and a scene backdrop for + the fish petz and toyz to play in. Oh, and a couple of versions of the "surprise box" for Babyz, mostly as a service for hexers who requested it. + Plus again a few updated tweaks over the past couple of weeks, on tutorials and links pages, which I can't + remember in detail, sorry, but do check out the "small is beautiful" links page.
+ +

+ +

+ 22 October 2005
+ A few more things for you from all the stuff I'm trying to finish... A brand new Butterfly Chaser breed, + with some finishing-off by me on this "Team" page. A few pages + of detailed info on using LNZPro on this tutorials page, + plus a few updated tweaks here and there on tutorials and links pages which I can't recall in detail.
+ +

+ +

+ 18 October 2005
+ Time races past as ever. I've got a few things for you... some links and updates on all three links pages. + three new babyz from the new babyz page. This picture shows just + one of them :-)
+
+ An update to the texture List info on the 2nd LNZ info chunk page -- + thanks to Lynelle for pointing out the missing bits -- and a new breed from + Lynelle who has made creative use of the Oddballz-petz breedz and made a brand new one of her own.
+
+ Oh, and my cyberpet has grown a little :-) I tried to get more up, but constant + interruptions today (and over the weekend) have got in the way. Expect some new Butterfly Chaser breedz + soon. +

+ +

+ 05 October 2005
+ For your downloading pleasure... Yet more updated versions of Pet Workshop and of LNZPro, from the Nicholas' Tools pages :-) Also some links on the + "small is beautiful" page. +

+ +

+ 04 October 2005
+ The most amazing tool -- a brand new version of pet Workshop! Does tattoos, paint ballz and lots of other + good stuff. Pet Workshop page. +

+ +

+ 02-03 October 2005
+ A fantastic new version of LNZPro on the, yes, LNZPro page. A brilliant + new idea and base baby, also, from L41N (Wardah Ahmar) is downloadable from the babyz tutorials page, + specifically from its own page. I added a bit of a tidy-up to the + baby file to make it a little clearer, and tried to explain how it's used and the potential that it has :-) + Finally, a bit of info for people who might have been pulling out hair trying to make hexed Petz playscenes + show up -- on the Petz tutorials page -- and extra information on + passing on colours in the "fixes for 2nd-gen problems" page. +

+ +

+ 29 September 2005
+ A new version of Tinker on the (heh) Tinker page. On the Real Life front, + I've recently updated my fostercats site too. Must dash, + chores to do... Happy daze... +

+ +

+ 26 September 2005
+ Over the past week or so, a few odd bits and pieces got uploaded here and there mostly on my Tutorials pages. Firs off, a grand Variations tutorial by Nicholas, which + is on my main tutorials page and on his Pet Workshop page. Also on that + main page are a new "What to do if Petz won't start or crashes" FAQ and a similar one for Babyz, plus I've + updated my LNZPro tips. On the Petz-specific page I've put a howto on making non-hidden emoticon variations + in a breed, how to change and expand tails for dogz and catz, giving your petz' eyes or "irises" a texture + (includes example petz), and putting bunny ears on a Dane. The perspicacious amongst you will have spotted + that I've got a new page called Rough Pet Info which is exactly + what it says. It breaks a pet file into sections so that you can see the structure, and see where the + important parts are when it comes to cloning a corrupted pet. It really is rough -- a series of screengrabs + -- so if you don't understand anything about pet files it won't help. But it's a handy reference that I made + for myself ages ago and I'm sharing with you now. I'm also sharing with you a set of lists of Bodyarea + numbers that I intended to put in with some "howtos" but as I've not managed to get those written, you'll + find the lists on my Vital LNZ info main page. I added some info into + the relevant LNZ chunk also. Slight improvement to my Petz 5 + demo-fooler . Errr... I think that's the lot, it's been a weird couple of weeks and difficult to do more + than snatch a moment or two at the computer now and then. +

+ +

+ 15 September 2005
+ Just a real quickie -- a new brilliant version of LNZPro on Nicholas' + Tools pages! Edit .baby files, and make Unibreed versions of your breedz that should work on Non-English + petz 3 games as well! +

+ +

+ 11 September 2005
+ New bug-fix version of Pet Workshop -- and a great new beta-test version of LNZPro on Nicholas' Tools pages! Note that the LNZPro has not been tested thoroughly, + but I think you'll like the newest feature. New links on my main links page, a + couple of them in the tutorials etc section to help people who ask about website making, and one of them is + also in the section called "Sites for "realistic" petz standards, and petz clubs" because it's a promising + new breed registry site which also offers hosting of breedz. The week went by too fast, still none of the + other things that I meant to do are finished, sorry. But my fostercats site + was updated a couple of days ago for those who are interested. +

+ +

+ 04 September 2005
+ New versions of Petza/babyza, LNZPro 2, and Pet Workshop on Nicholas' + Tools pages! New features and bugfixes... I'm so trying to get other things up, odds and bods of my own, + almost finished but not quite, hopefully this coming week will see some goodies. +

+ +

+ 24 August 2005
+ A new version of Petza/babyza on Nicholas' Tools pages. This has no new + features, it's another version he's made to try and help track down the problem that some people have with + it, so if it's working for you there's no need to download. Also one link removed from my + "small is beautiful" page; after I had given them info on how to make files + available for download, Sarah and Ruby proceeded to "hotlink" to other sites' breedz. folks, this is a huge + no-no on the Internet; don't do it! They appear to no longer be answering emails, so until they do and fix + the problem, their link will stay down. +

+ +

+ 22 August 2005
+
+ Whew, that was a tough few days -- it looked as if Petzwarehouse was down for good, and I was worried about + Abby. But last night I heard from Abby, she's fine :-D and the site should be up today *happy-dance*
+ Meanwhile, my good pal Sue picked up my broken pieces and generously offered to mirror my site; see the link + above :-)
+ Updates to the site are a couple of Nicholas' Tools -- go fetch the latest + Pet Workshop and LNZPro 2. Also there are some new links to great sites on my "small + is beautiful" and babyz links pages, and a few small tweaks on the + tutorials pages. +

+ +

+ 10 August 2005
+
+ Not much, just a howto for people who are having difficulty working out how to use Tinker and LNZPro 2. On + my Tutorials page. For those who are interested in my fostercats site, + I'm going to update there also today, with some cheerful news and a new family member. All a bit rushed, + Real Life is running away with me :-) +

+ +

+ 03 August 2005
+
+ Yup, another version of Petza/Babyza, version 1.1.4; also another version of Pet Workshop, also version + 1.1.4. As always, they are on Nicholas' Tools pages. I've got a small + howto on the tutorials, Petz-specific page because I've been asked a + few times how to change the default pet name at the AC. I have a bunch of other howtos waiting to be + polished up and uploaded, they're too rough at the moment. Some nice shiny new links on the "small is beautiful" and babyz links pages, + you really want to check them out! Also, for my own pleasure, I have a Cyberpet + page for my site (thanks, Rachel!) and some lovely updates on my "gifts from + friends" pages. Nothing else for you today, but for those who are interested in my fostercats, I + recently had another update there also but be warned, the latest update was quite sad. +

+ +

+ 28 July 2005
+
+ Another version of Petza/Babyza, this time a "bugfix" version 1.4.3 thanks to people who sent Nicholas their + bug reports, and to Nicholas too of course :-) as usual on Nicholas' Tools + page; thanks yet again, Nicholas! Also another neat link on my "small is + beautiful" links page. +

+ +

+ 22 July 2005
+
+ Nearly 3 weeks since I last uploaded... So sorry! Well, today I've uploaded Pet Workshop version 1.1.3 on Nicholas' Tools page; thanks, Nicholas! Various improvements for the program's + fans, so go see! One or two little tweaks here and there on the site too, including adjustments to the Petz + 4, Babyz and Petz 5 foolers. Also some updated links on my links pages, and for those who follow my + fostercats I've recently updated there also. Oh, and I don't think I mentioned earlier that I am hosting Iola's Miniature Bows for Dogz on my + Off-site specials, as she has had some server problems + and in fact had lost all of them. Well, they are all back online again now :-) +

+ +

+ 02 July 2005

+ We had Live 8 up here in Edinburgh today -- nearly a quarter of a million people marching to Make Poverty + History -- yay!
+ But, back to Petz -- we have version 1.4.2 of Petza.toy (which is also Babyza of course) for you on Nicholas' Tools page. A minor update, but hopefully a useful one. Also, Kirby + fans check out the link on my P3,4,5 LNZ breedz page -- Miranda has made some great variations! I + meant to get some other things uploaded, but the day has been chaos -- well, the whole week has really. Hope + to do more soon. +

- Thanks to Sue of Petz Boardwalk - for so generously providing mirror space for so many months, and then for taking on the - full bandwidth burden of my monster of a site when Abby could no longer do so. You're a - special lady, Sue! My enormous thanks also to Abby of the Petzwarehouse for hosting my - site for all those years.
- Thanks to our amazing Minibyte, I now have a full mirror of this site at - her domain, thank you Minibyte!!
- If my site goes down at any time -- woah, that would be quite a day! -- pop along to - this page, - where I'll keep you informed of whatever is going on. -

- 18 Mar 2010
- Wow, I hear you say, it lives! Well, in a way... I still care about this site and - the old Petz games, but I have no time. This update is a small bit of maintenance -- - the page for the Petz 5 backup CD now has some necessary Catz dlls. You couldn't get - catz to load on it before, but with these dll files you should be able to. And the - links page -- I have kept the old pages as an archive but now, when you click on the - "links and contact" it takes you to a simple page with urls on it that I have - checked. Plus, I have a new sister site :) Oh yes, and now that Daniel's site is - down, I've added the original bunny and pig file downloads to the "catz in dogz" and - "dogz in catz" pages. I'm very sad to see his site down again, and am not sure of - exactly what is "broken" on this site of mine because of it. I will try to find - broken links and fix them, but if you find such a link please drop me an email. The - mail is still the hex-help at hornsc clara co uk one. -

- -

- 20 Aug 2009
- Wow, nearly a year later, an update! Well actually I've been adding odd things here - and there for a while now, but not really "Carolyn's Creations" so I've not been - mentioning them. But people who are having trouble searching for everything for the - game foolers are getting the odd pleasant surprise if they keep their eyes open; I'm - hoping that people who have lost or damaged irreplaceable CDs will find them helpful - also. -

- -

- I have also uploaded what you would need in order to be able to play with Petz - Player files, such as Phantarella on my main page, Babyz player files such as the - ones on my "play online" Babyz page, and perhaps most important, to go into the Catz - 1 shrine! ;-) -

- -

- Last but not least, the very big news; I now have a full mirror of this giant of a - site! Bookmark - this link. Huge - thanks to Minibyte!! -

- -

- 30 Sep 2008
- I know, I know, I hardly ever update these days. I really don't have the time, but I - still love the old Petz, Babyz and Oddballz games so I've not abandoned you :-) No - new hexings for you, but for Babyz players I have zipped up the - ViaVoice files so that people who have been having - problems with downloading the individual files can get them, plus on that page you - will see a link to help those of you with damaged or lost CDs. Also there are a few - links to creative and useful sites on my - "small but beautiful" links page. I - have put a little more information on the new "petz" games - -- the ones that Ubisoft now calls Catz 2 and Dogz 2. These are in no way like the - older Petz II game of course, but the info is there for completeness. It's a real - nuisance that UbiSoft have chosen to call their new 3D pet games Catz, Dogz, Catz 2 - and Dogz 2. -

- -

- 15 May 2008
- Just a really tiny thing -- a new link on my - "small but beautiful" links page :-) - I know people have written to me before asking for links to be updated; forgive me, - I have had various things such as computer crashes over the past few months and am - not now able to find the messages. If you want a link changed, please write to me - again. -

- -

- 03 May 2008
- It's like a bus, isn't it -- you wait for ages and then two come along at once ;-) - Okay, the site should now be complete, including the FinFin and Petz4 demo - downloads. As far as I can see, everything is as it was before the site's - foundations got slipped from under it. Nothing new, and still a messy monster of a - site, but hey, the "olds" are back. -

- -

- 02 May 2008
- Site is back up and running!
- Wow. Almost a year since last we spoke. And even now this is not an update -- it's - just a note that the site has been fixed after a few weeks of downtime. I think - everything has been fixed apart from Finfin and the Petz 4 demo, I hope so anyway. - The Petz 4 demo and Finfin downloads I hope to fix tomorrow. Please note what I say - above, if my site goes down again pop along to - this page (click) - at Blueyonder, where I hope to be able to keep you informed of whatever is going on. -

- -

- 30 June 2007
- Just a few tweaks to a couple of the foolers, and some links to other places of Petz - interest, for you today. My computer play time has narrowed down to almost zero - while I bottlefeed some grey furries... First up, - The Petz5 Palace - has moved so I've changed the link on my "Small is Beautiful" page and I've fixed up - one or two other links on a couple of the links pages. Next, I have a new links page - for PetzHexz which is there with its - affiliates to help with Petz and other virtual life games -- and the Virtual Life - forum is back up!
- Next, for - Babyz fooler - fans I have put up some files from the unpacked Babyz demo for those of you who - can't get the demo to install. Also on the - ViaVoice fix page, I've tried to make things a little - clearer. For people who wanted the Petz 3 playscene Petz Vet and had trouble with - the patchfile, I've uploaded the full scene on the - Old Petz 3 Scenespage - 3. That's the lot for now. -

- -

- 10 June 2007
- As always, in a huge rush. I have for you the abandonware game - Fin Fin
- This update is not actually a Petz item nor is it a Carolyn's Creation, but it's a - game that has been dumped by its craetors and is too cute to lose -- and Sue has - kindly agreed to host it. I don't provide any help with getting it running, but I do - give a link on the download page to a very helpful site and forum. -

- -

- Approx. 20 April 2007
- Wups, I uploaded some bits and pieces a few days ago and forgot to update this - What's New. Things in Real Life here are going like crazy, so the site tends to get - a bit neglected but uploads still do happen now and then. Let's see... I put up a - "Pointless Info 2" page to show that all the games can be made to work in Windows - Vista -- an Operating System that I won't touch of course, it's even worse than XP, - but I thought you'd be interested. I've made it easier to use the Petz II demo - fooler, it has a whole page to itself now. A tweak or two on the Tutorials pages, - can't remember in detail now exactly what. And some items for Babyz players and - hexers on the "newest babyz" page. Sorry that updates are so random and far apart, - but really I do stuff for the site as and when I can. I seem to have lost my latest - notes on sites which I promised to add to my links pages, my deepest apologies to - anyone who was expecting a link to go up but really my links pages are horribly out - of date these days. -

- -

- 18 March 2007
- It can't be March already?? Well, a lot has happened so far this - year but very little of it has been petz-related for me. All I have for you this - time is an updated link and a tweak or two on my tutorials page (a bit more info in - my "what to do if petz crashes" and "what to do if Babyz crashes" howtos) and my - Petz 4 demo-fooler page (get to it via my Mad Scientist page). The reason for the - demo-fooler update is because it seems that demo-download sites now check to see - what part of the world you live in before letting you download the demo, and if your - area isn't right they won't let the download start. That is plain evil -- what the - heck has happened to the Internet?? Gah. Oh, and I realised I'd accidentally removed - the Phantarella player link from my main page when I moved to Boardwalkerz, so she's - back on the main page again.
- For those interested in my fostercats, Paddlepat didn't make it through. Poor baby. - His sisters were spayed this week and, thank heaven, it seems that they don't have - the same latent disease that he had. They are lively and healthy. I am now running - the - "adopt-a-cat" scheme which - helps to bring in some much-needed cash for the Cat Register and Rescue, so my time - is now even more limited. And a wonderful thing happened which I'd like to shout to - the heavens, but I can't put it on the sites, aaaargh. -

- -

- 09 February 2007
- Just to let you know I'm still here, but 2007 is being a bit of a pain so not much - is updated. I did a tiny update to the Oddballz and - oddballz fooler pages a couple of weeks ago but am blowed if I can remember what - exactly. Updated my "new links" page. And today I have a - great new sister site -- Miranda's PAC, - which will be updated shortly with new breedz etc, so keep an eye on it! That's it - for now. I've got a very very sick cat at the moment, - PaddlepatPaddlepat - needs all my care and attention but he probably won't survive, so please keep the - wee fellow in your thoughts and prayers. -

- -

- 07 January 2007
- Already the year is starting to zoom along... But I have a small update for Babyz - players -- kitchen magnets separated. Sorry that's - it for now, I have a new cat in who needs plenty of attention. -

- -

- 02 January 2007
- Woah, another year has started... Happy New Year! Just another small update for Petz - 4 players a bunch of un-hidden toyz. It doesn't - include the ones which don't have on-shelf graphics, nor does it include the four - gemstones. I may get those up soon, if Real Life doesn't take off too fast. And for - Petz 3, 4 and 5 people who like to dabble in editing the binary parts of petz with a - hex editor, I've put a little more info up on the - Rough Pet Info page. -

- -

- 31 December 2006
- Happy Hogmanay!! I have one small updates for you -- a howto on - Trotting and Floofing. wrote the - thing ages ago and then forgot to upload it because LNZPro had a tick-box for it. - But it seems that doesn't really work, so here's how to do it manually. Including - how to make your chinchilla Persians trot, LOL. -

- -

- 28 December 2006
- I hope your Yuletide is going well -- that the celebrations continue and that the - coming weekend will produce a great hogmanay. I have one or two very small updates - for you -- a howto on changing the Yarn - Ball tail colour, a page of new links and a bit more on - Ubisoft's latest "Petz" games including info about the - Windows Horsez. Finally, for those of you who are interested in my fostercats, - there's updates - at that site too. -

- -

- 22 December 2006
- My hearty thanks to Sue for the lovely new splash page that she has made for me, and - for the terrific new link banner and button, which are now of course on my links - page -- although I've not managed to update it apart from that...
- a banner
-
- a button
-
- Wishing you all a very happy holiday season and a joyous christmas, Hanukkah, New - Year, Solstice -- or whatever else you enjoy celebrating at this time of year. Me, I - like to just sit and listen to the world turn on its axis :-) May 2007 be a good - year for us all, and a fun year for Petz and modding. I now have a wordy little - treatise on What IS "hexing?" -- MODDING! -

- -

- 16 December 2006
- Nothing new for you at all today, I'm so sorry -- well, apart from the - Babyz ViaVoice fix which I uploaded a while ago and - forgot to mention -- I've not even managed to get the links I promised to update for - various wonderful site-owners all fixed up, I promise I'll try to get that done on - my next update. All that's happening this time is that my site is moving over fully - now to the mirror that Sue provided for several months. Abby has been wonderful for - hosting my stuff for so long after she lost interest in Petz, and Sue has been a - trojan for seamlessly taking over the bandwidth burden. For anyone who has been - linking directly to various pages at my Petzwarehouse site, such as the Babyz colour - chart, I'm sorry -- the link will have broken. Come along to my site here at - Boardwalkerz for all the information and - charts that used to be there. -

- -

- 01 December 2006
- Still nothing really for you -- but I do have a brief note about the latest Virtual - life games from Ubisoft here . They really are not a part of - the Petz series, but for completeness I mention them. -

- -

- 14 November 2006
- Another month on, and nothing much for you -- but for Babyz fans I have three - versions of Stewie and three different "cow bells" for them to wear on my - Newest Babyz - page. Real Life and my kitties are taking so much of my time, bless the furry ones. -

- -

- 19 October 2006
- Sorry it's been so long... and even now there's nothing new really, but I've - adjusted a few pages to make things a little easier to find -- I hope. I've put the - "if you can't download you're at the wrong place" info even easier to find as well - as trying to make things such as the Babyz Fooler easier to follow. Also not new, - but just to let anyone who needs help with Tinker or LNZPro or Petza/Babyza know -- - the link to his download site is on my Nicholas' Tools page, along with links to - useful info. My links pages are woefully unkempt now, I'm sorry -- I can't face - going through it all but I hope to adjust the most obvious and add an extra page of - fresh, interesting sites soon. I've simply not been getting the time to do things - properly -- take a look at - my fostercats site - for some idea of how busy I've been. And a lot has happened even since I updated - there, LOL! -

- -

- 30 July 2006
- Yes, I know, I've not updated for two months -- I can't begin to tell you how busy - things have been here, so I've not updated either this site or my fostercats one in - all that time. As for this update, it's just for oddballz fans. Because Daniel's - site is down and now, it seems, also Don's Amberoddballz, plus nowhere else on the - net seems to have the demos, I've uploaded a demo and the official breedz to this - site, also Ron Tigat's Oddballz Eggz Scrambler. You will find these things on the - Oddballz Fixes and - Oddballz Fooler pages.
- Also uploaded on the new p2, p3, p4 and p5 pages are the skorch breedfiles for Catz - games. They are on the relevant New Breedz pages, and the sound files are on the - species sounds page. These were once exclusive to Daniel's site but since I created - them and his site is down they have come home to me.
- I wanted to do more, but that's it for now. Hopefully not so long before the next - update. Must dash. -

- -

- 21 May 2006
- Sorry, a late update and I've not got much for you -- Real Life has been getting in - the way big-time and I've only managed to update my - My foster-cat site - since I last updated here -- and even there I'm not up to date. And I'm not managing - to do half of what I've been promising people on this update, sorry. But there are - some little things.
- A bunch of experimental babyz, and more of my "Harem set" on the - Newest Babyz - page. Yes, I know there aren't any pictures and that I should have the harem clothes - on the clothes page. I don't have time to do it right!
- On the - Team creations - page you'll find a new Catz breed made from Casey Miller's pet. Also there, my few - Unibreedz -- Artie, Honkie and Sauropod -- should be fixed for cross-breeding as - they were re-done with the latest LNZPro.
- I've put the catz 1 demo up for download on my - Catz 1 demo fooler page.
- If you go to my sister site, - Sue Briley's Babyz Punked, - you'll find there a couple of unusual babyz and a babyz clothing item, for - Naturists, made by myself.
- I've got a couple of great cyberpets from Dulua Land up on my Cyberpets page.
- NOT YET done -- a whole bunch of howtos, which will eventually go on a "pot-luck" - page, more half-done hexed stuff, and fixing up my links pages. I don't know when - these will get done, but one thing I will try to get fixed and up soon is Miranda's - brilliant sounds for Kirby. -

- -

- 03 March 2006
- As always later than intended, but I added what I believe to be the final soundfixes - to the Babyz soundfix for XP page. The new - downloads and replacements are marked with the date beside them, so if you - downloaded most of the files before today, just download those which are marked. My - friend gave the whole thing a quick test, and with any luck this will prevent any - sound-related freezes in your game now. Remember, people, you do need to also - download 9 toyz from Twilight's site -- the link is clearly on my soundfix page. And - yay for Sandi of - Forever Babyz - -- she gave an award to myself and Twilight, and I'm displaying it with pride :-) - Thank you so much!
- -

- -

- 27 February 2006
- Well, I fell over today and twisted and bruised me poor arthritic old bones, so not - as much done as I'd hoped. But I have a couple of great breedz for you on the Team - Creations, - "With Sue Briley and Nintendo-6444" - page,
-
- and yesterday and today I added to the - Babyz soundfix for XP -- have not been able - to test the latest fixes myself yet but have had good reports so far. I am intending - to fine-tune the soundfix over the next day or two. -

- -

- 25 February 2006
- I know, I know, I've not done anything much this month so far. Real Life has been - taking almost all my time. All I have for you today is a - Babyz soundfix for XP, but with any luck - that'll at least make many of the Babyz Commumity happy. -

- -

- 07 February 2006
- Once again, I've not managed to update as I wanted to. I've been having some Real - Life difficulties, so updates are of necessity going to be slow for the near future - -- but they will happen, truly. But for now, great news! Not only do we have - a new version of Tinker, but also Nicholas has - his own site. - The latest versions of his software will always be found there :-) Also there are - some updates on the links pages. -

- -

- 28 January 2006
- Yes, I know -- I've not updated in ages. There have been all sorts of Real Life - crises, all getting resolved okay but taking time, so all my wonderful hexing plans - have had to wait. The Great Present Caper is of course finished, but I'm making my - donations for Petz games available for you all. You can download them when you find - the picture of a present. Also downloadable now, from my babyz toyz pages, is the - Christmas Spoon that I made for DRN's Advent Calendar. I've fixed up some items on - my links pages, and got a new "Sister". And finally, some weird and wacky babyz for - your downloading pleasure on the - pasted-heads page.
-
- Coming soon (I hope) will be some "Team Creation" breedz, for some of which I just - need to get the pages done. -

- -

- 02 January 2006
- Nicholas has updated Petza to fix the Petz II and - Babyz bugs. It works beautifully now -- go get it!! That's it for today, but pretty - good all the same :-) -

- -

- 01 January 2006
- Happy New Year!!
- So I didn't get the hexing time I'd hoped for this past week... But we have from the - wonderful Nicholas -- another new version of Petza from his - Nicholas' Tools pages. This update, version 2.0.2, - fixes some problems for Petz 3, 4 and 5 players. On my machine it crashes in Babyz - and Petz II, so I've left 2.0.1 up for you as well just in case the same happens - with you. I've also got some changes on my links pages, a new sister, and a changed - link to Miranda's Kirby page on my P3,4,5 LNZ breedz page. -

- -

- 26 December 2005
- The Great Present Caper is apparently delayed until tomorrow. Should be good anyway! - And now, from Nicholas -- a new version of Petza from his - Nicholas' Tools pages. This update, version 2.0.1, - fixes the "weather" bug for Petz 5 players! -

- -

- 24 December 2005
- The Great Present Caper should be under way -- good hunting! The big Christmas - present for you at this site today is from Nicholas -- a new version of Petza from - his Nicholas' Tools pages. There's some good stuff - in it, including a great new feature for Babyz players; you can at last add new - playscenes! Remember that you will need to make them non-overwriting with their own - name and ID numbers of course. Apart from that, my - Cyberpet has grown up at last, there are a couple of - updated links, and I've had a nice time with my - "gifts from friends" pages. Yes, I meant to get a lot of - hexed items up, but in the end I only managed to complete some presents for the - Great Present Caper. Am hoping for some peaceful days over this coming week to - finish off other goodies. Merry Yueltide! -

- -

- 07 December 2005
- Just the Great Present Caper notice above, and a couple of updated links; Miranda's - PAC on the main links page , and Tigger's site on - the babyz links page. -

- -

- 04 December 2005
- The last of the demo-foolers is now online, thanks to Daniel! This time it's the - turn of Mac players of the games. Get the - Catz 1 demo fooler , and the - Dogz 1 demo fooler -- and last but not least, the - Oddballz demo fooler! Now - everyone can join the fun :-) -

- -

- 03 December 2005
- Another one of my toyz converted on my petz 5 page -- - the freedom fish to overwrite your fish bowl. I'll be converting the playscene for - it soon, but that's not done yet. The big thing for you today is the - Catz 1 demo fooler (yay!) and - my own Dogz 1 demo fooler, which allows you to go - back to the adoption centre and take Daphne's quiz. I have captured the flavour of - the Catz 1 site as it was when the game first came out, complete with some little - surprises, a find-it and the part which I personally adored -- the - VRML temple. I totally loved that thing, and I can - still play it on my old browser. You may not be able to see it, which would be a - shame, but I do have links to viewers on that page. If you can install the Cosmo - player, that would be optimum. If you do manage to play it, the links within it have - been updated to links that actually work. Also, all actual links on the pages should - lead to interesting things. Anyway, have fun! -

- -

- 28 November 2005
- Managing to get some stuff done at last. Some conversions... The Secret Wood, with - its toyz, for you on the Petz 5 Playscene page. - Some of my toyz converted on my petz 5 page, including - a gem hairball for dracoz (I intend to improve the P3 and P4 ones some day too). An - exciting new toy for petz II -- fishes swimming in and - out of a tank, yay! I intend to make a Petz 3 version of that soon. Also for Petz - II, the Fishie breed and a - scene backdrop for the fish petz and toyz to play - in. Oh, and a couple of versions of the - "surprise box" for Babyz, mostly as a service for - hexers who requested it. Plus again a few updated tweaks over the past couple of - weeks, on tutorials and links pages, which I can't remember in detail, sorry, but do - check out the "small is beautiful" links page.
- -

- -

- 22 October 2005
- A few more things for you from all the stuff I'm trying to finish... A brand new - Butterfly Chaser breed, with some finishing-off by me on - this "Team" page. A few pages of - detailed info on using LNZPro on - this tutorials page, plus a few - updated tweaks here and there on tutorials and links pages which I can't recall in - detail.
- -

- -

- 18 October 2005
- Time races past as ever. I've got a few things for you... some links and updates on - all three links pages. three new babyz from the - new babyz page. This picture shows just - one of them :-)
-
- An update to the texture List info on the - 2nd LNZ info chunk page -- thanks to Lynelle for - pointing out the missing bits -- and a - new breed from Lynelle who has made creative use of the - Oddballz-petz breedz and made a brand new one of her own.
-
- Oh, and my cyberpet has grown a little :-) I tried to - get more up, but constant interruptions today (and over the weekend) have got in the - way. Expect some new Butterfly Chaser breedz soon. -

- -

- 05 October 2005
- For your downloading pleasure... Yet more updated versions of Pet Workshop and of - LNZPro, from the Nicholas' Tools pages :-) Also some - links on the "small is beautiful" page. -

- -

- 04 October 2005
- The most amazing tool -- a brand new version of pet Workshop! Does tattoos, paint - ballz and lots of other good stuff. Pet Workshop - page. -

- -

- 02-03 October 2005
- A fantastic new version of LNZPro on the, yes, - LNZPro page. A brilliant new idea and base baby, - also, from L41N (Wardah Ahmar) is downloadable from the babyz tutorials page, - specifically from its own page. I added a bit - of a tidy-up to the baby file to make it a little clearer, and tried to explain how - it's used and the potential that it has :-) Finally, a bit of info for people who - might have been pulling out hair trying to make hexed Petz playscenes show up -- on - the Petz tutorials page -- and extra information - on passing on colours in the - "fixes for 2nd-gen problems" page. -

- -

- 29 September 2005
- A new version of Tinker on the (heh) Tinker page. On - the Real Life front, I've recently updated my - fostercats site - too. Must dash, chores to do... Happy daze... -

- -

- 26 September 2005
- Over the past week or so, a few odd bits and pieces got uploaded here and there - mostly on my Tutorials pages. Firs off, a - grand Variations tutorial by Nicholas, which is on my main tutorials page and on his - Pet Workshop page. Also on that main page are a new - "What to do if Petz won't start or crashes" FAQ and a similar one for Babyz, plus - I've updated my LNZPro tips. On the Petz-specific page I've put a howto on making - non-hidden emoticon variations in a breed, how to change and expand tails for dogz - and catz, giving your petz' eyes or "irises" a texture (includes example petz), and - putting bunny ears on a Dane. The perspicacious amongst you will have spotted that - I've got a new page called Rough Pet Info - which is exactly what it says. It breaks a pet file into sections so that you can - see the structure, and see where the important parts are when it comes to cloning a - corrupted pet. It really is rough -- a series of screengrabs -- so if you don't - understand anything about pet files it won't help. But it's a handy reference that I - made for myself ages ago and I'm sharing with you now. I'm also sharing with you a - set of lists of Bodyarea numbers that I intended to put in with some "howtos" but as - I've not managed to get those written, you'll find the lists on my - Vital LNZ info main page. I added some info - into the relevant LNZ chunk also. Slight improvement to my - Petz 5 demo-fooler . Errr... I think that's - the lot, it's been a weird couple of weeks and difficult to do more than snatch a - moment or two at the computer now and then. -

- -

- 15 September 2005
- Just a real quickie -- a new brilliant version of LNZPro on - Nicholas' Tools pages! Edit .baby files, and make - Unibreed versions of your breedz that should work on Non-English petz 3 games as - well! -

- -

- 11 September 2005
- New bug-fix version of Pet Workshop -- and a great new beta-test version of LNZPro - on Nicholas' Tools pages! Note that the LNZPro has - not been tested thoroughly, but I think you'll like the newest feature. New links on - my main links page, a couple of them in the tutorials etc - section to help people who ask about website making, and one of them is also in the - section called "Sites for "realistic" petz standards, and petz clubs" because it's a - promising new breed registry site which also offers hosting of breedz. The week went - by too fast, still none of the other things that I meant to do are finished, sorry. - But my - fostercats site - was updated a couple of days ago for those who are interested. -

- New versions of Petza/babyza, LNZPro 2, and Pet Workshop on - Nicholas' Tools pages! New features and bugfixes... - I'm so trying to get other things up, odds and bods of my own, almost finished but - not quite, hopefully this coming week will see some goodies. -

- A new version of Petza/babyza on Nicholas' Tools - pages. This has no new features, it's another version he's made to try and help - track down the problem that some people have with it, so if it's working for you - there's no need to download. Also one link removed from my - "small is beautiful" page; after I had given them - info on how to make files available for download, Sarah and Ruby proceeded to - "hotlink" to other sites' breedz. folks, this is a huge no-no on the Internet; don't - do it! They appear to no longer be answering emails, so until they do and fix the - problem, their link will stay down. -

- Whew, that was a tough few days -- it looked as if Petzwarehouse was down for good, - and I was worried about Abby. But last night I heard from Abby, she's fine :-D and - the site should be up today *happy-dance*
- Meanwhile, my good pal Sue picked up my broken pieces and generously offered to - mirror my site; see the link above :-)
- Updates to the site are a couple of Nicholas' Tools - -- go fetch the latest Pet Workshop and LNZPro 2. Also there are some new links to - great sites on my "small is beautiful" and - babyz links pages, and a few small tweaks on the - tutorials pages. -

- Not much, just a howto for people who are having difficulty working out how to use - Tinker and LNZPro 2. On my Tutorials page. For - those who are interested in my fostercats site, I'm going to update - there also - today, with some cheerful news and a new family member. All a bit rushed, Real Life - is running away with me :-) -

- Yup, another version of Petza/Babyza, version 1.1.4; also another version of Pet - Workshop, also version 1.1.4. As always, they are on - Nicholas' Tools pages. I've got a small howto on the - tutorials, Petz-specific page because I've been - asked a few times how to change the default pet name at the AC. I have a bunch of - other howtos waiting to be polished up and uploaded, they're too rough at the - moment. Some nice shiny new links on the - "small is beautiful" and - babyz links pages, you really want to check them out! - Also, for my own pleasure, I have a Cyberpet page for my - site (thanks, Rachel!) and some lovely updates on my - "gifts from friends" pages. Nothing else for you today, - but for those who are interested in my fostercats, I recently had another update - there also - but be warned, the latest update was quite sad. -

- Nearly 3 weeks since I last uploaded... So sorry! Well, today I've uploaded Pet - Workshop version 1.1.3 on Nicholas' Tools page; - thanks, Nicholas! Various improvements for the program's fans, so go see! One or two - little tweaks here and there on the site too, including adjustments to the Petz 4, - Babyz and Petz 5 foolers. Also some updated links on my links pages, and for those - who follow my fostercats I've recently updated - there also. - Oh, and I don't think I mentioned earlier that I am hosting - Iola's - Miniature Bows for Dogz on my - Off-site specials, as she has had - some server problems and in fact had lost all of them. Well, they are all back - online again now :-) -

- We had Live 8 up here in Edinburgh today -- nearly a quarter of a million people - marching to Make Poverty History -- yay!
- But, back to Petz -- we have version 1.4.2 of Petza.toy (which is also Babyza of - course) for you on Nicholas' Tools page. A minor - update, but hopefully a useful one. Also, Kirby fans check out the link on my - P3,4,5 LNZ breedz page -- - Miranda has made - some great variations! I meant to get some other things uploaded, but the day has - been chaos -- well, the whole week has really. Hope to do more soon. -
