SNr Plugins
As a member of staff, you are able to approach a mare and leash it to take it for training and leash it back in its stall when it is finished. The guide below covers simple use of MD, RR and KDC bridles.
Remember to wear a leash handle or ring containing scripts for leashing MD, RR and open collar bridles as a minimum.
If you cannot get access, then check the following:
- The owner may have prevented access to their pony’s bridle using the Mare Control Owner rights.
- You may be standing too far away.
- Your staff access may need reactivating.
- You may not be wearing the Staff HUD.
- The pony may not have added the plugins or it is not set up correctly.
sNr Plugins (RR and MD)
These plugins are added to MD and RR equipment to enable ‘activated’ staff to access their bridles when wearing their staff HUD. These are essential for head harnesses but optionally can be added to other relevant RR and MD equipment such as tails, boots, neck corset and harness. The plugins are available for free from the vendor wheel indicated on the map in this guide. Both the RR and MD plugin scripts need to be manually added to the respective bridles by the pony. To do this, they rez the bridle to the floor, select Edit and then drag the scripts into the content tab. Take the bridle and wear it as normal. Now sNr staff have access to their bridle even if it's locked, or an owner can lock it exclusively.
MD Bridle
To access the bridle menu, simply click on the bridle, usually around the bit area and the following menu appears: IMAGE
To leash a pony, press leash. Then you grab the leash and press length to set the length accordingly. 2 or 3 metres is usually about right for taking them out. If they are not bitted, then press gag and pony bit. To secure them to a leash ring, click leash to and then the ring you want to leash them to. Then set the length accordingly. Please do use the features in RLV, as these will conflict with those provided by Mare Control. For more information, consult the MD notecard, or get a copy from a pony.
RR Bridle
To access the bridle menu, simply click on the bridle, usually around the bit area and the following menu appears: IMAGE
To leash a pony, press plugins | Leash. Then you grab leash and press length to set the length accordingly. 2 or 3 metres is usually about right for taking them out. You have to press custom to achieve a 3 metre length. If they are not bitted, then press Harness Ring. If the pony has a ring rather than a bit then go to Plugins | Style and click Harness Bit. To secure them to a leash ring, click Plugins | Leash and then the ring you want to leash them to. Then set the length accordingly. There may be a little pause, so wait patiently. Please do not use any RLV features, as these will conflict with those provided by Mare Control. For more information, consult the RR guidance.
KDC Bridle
The KDC bridle is simple and elegant and considered a very script-light gear which will not burden your sim or your computer. There are no built-in menus with this gear. You need to obtain the KDC script to add to your leash holder (ask in the group chat) and then you simply click the leash in your hand and then touch one of the leash points on the bridle. Then the animal will be leashed. You do the same to unleash it. There is no setting to change the leash length, so the length of the leash will be determined by how far you are standing from it when you leashed it. In terms of leashing the animal to leash rings and posts, this will be tricky as these do not have the KDC scripts inside. It is possible that arrangements can be made if you have an animal with the KDC bridle.
