ATTENTION: To anyone who uses my breed templates
It has come to my attention that Jocelyn (known as maplewood-estate, cath-creative-corner, jocelynxflores, eqsims, EquestrianEssentials and several other alts) of the Equiliberty Discord server has uploaded my breed template files to her server without my knowledge or consent. This is a problem for two reasons:
One.
I specifically state in my TOS not to re-upload my work anywhere else, as it is hosted on Simfileshare, with backup copies on my google drive in the event Simfileshare goes down. I do not mind if my work is privately shared between friends (especially through imports etc) or in small groups, but I do mind when someone re-uploads the files somewhere themselves without credit or a direct link to my blog. That this person did this doesn't actually surprise me, as she is well known within the TS4 community for stealing cc from other creators, removing their names/IDs from the file, and refusing to give credit where credit is due. I formally requested that she remove my files from her server, which she refused to do. I was also accused of being a bully for pointing out this theft and for asking that the files be taken down.
Two.
Earlier today, it came to my attention that one of my breed templates - the Thoroughbred breed template - was corrupting save files. Upon further investigation with the affected person, it was revealed to me that they downloaded this corrupted template not from my simfileshare link, but from the Equiliberty discord server. None of the templates from the direct download from simfileshare have this issue, which leads me to believe that whatever copies got uploaded to that server, they were corrupted. I do not know if this corruption was intentional or not. It is important to always download my files (or files from any creator, really), directly from the source, as those files will always be the most up-to-date versions and also guaranteed not to be corrupted. If you wish to share cc to a wider audience (like a server), simply link to the relevant post on my blog or simfileshare page. This ensures that other people can also access the most up-to-date version, as well as discover more of my work.
Unfortunately, because Jocelyn reacted with hostility to my request, I was unable to explain the very good reason why I was asking that my work be taken down and replaced with links. This entire issue could have been avoided had my Terms of Service been followed, as the original upload was not corrupted at all. Unfortunately, because of this, a handful of people lost hours of hard work, which makes me incredibly sad. Obviously, as a creator, there really isn't anything I can do if my TOS are violated beyond blocking known violators, but I would like to think that observing any creator's TOS is a simple sign of respect. Going forward, I will continue to share my breed templates through this blog. I am also certain they will continue to be stolen, but there is little I can do about that. All I ask is that people remember that the safest files will always be those downloaded directly from the content creator's page, and that anyone who reuploads my files elsewhere instead of directly linking to my blog is violating my TOS and also possibly sharing corrupted files with you. Be aware and be safe!
Lauren's POV
These days the weather is getting better and better. Both people and horses are enjoying it a lot. Our outdoor jump training arena has finally been rid of snow, and isn't under water anymore, so today we pulled the obstacles out there, so we could do some outdoor training.
I started just watching Vivian, then later on I went to the pasture to collect Silver, so he could get some training as well.
Welcome to Roheryn Fields Stud Farm!
Irish bred horses have made a tremendous impact at the upper levels of most every International discipline and the sturdy, well built, Irish Draught is the foundation breed for such equine athletes. Both purebreds and partbreds alike are known for their performance superiority, intelligence, soundness and stamina.
Roheryn Fields Stud Farm was established with the hopes of producing top quality and versatile competition horses. It is our mission to breed Irish Draughts that are not only strikingly beautiful but also graceful, well mannered, and that excell in any discipline they are trained in. We hope to prove that Roheryn bred Irish Draughts are some of the best representations of the breed.
"YOU GOT A FRIEND IN ME"
Camilla's POV
Buying a pony for your daughter is never easy. You want a pony who can give her fun and good experiences, but you also want no harm to come to her, so you need a safe pony as well. That's how we ended up leasing Rosie!
She is a mix of Dales, Shetland Pony and British Spotted Pony, and has an unusual long neck for a Shetland mix. She is a good egg though, careful with her feet and always up for training in any capacity.
Rosie hasn't done much else than basic training, and has taken a few obstacles, but the last at least 2 years she has just been pasture buddy to her owner's nervous show gelding and the geldings buddy at shows as well, so she has seen a little bit of everything, which will be a plus, if or when Amy wants to start shows with her.
Amy tried her today, and warmed her up thoroughly. Yes, she was a little out of breath by the end, but she is also pretty out of shape (just look at how thick her stomach is! xD), so when in better shape she can endure more!
She even felt safe enough to cool her down after some rough canter work in trot and long reins! I think we have found the perfect pony, for our eldest, but we will be leasing her the next few months just to make sure!
Cover of magazines
Last month Donnerwetter was selected to become the cover horse of a equistrian magazine. An agent of the company visited us in person to get to know the individual horses and to find a suiting candidate for the shoot. It did not took long until she found the perfect horse for their aesthetic. To be honest I am not really surprised that she fell head over heels for the dark chestnut with orange hair - after all he is indeed stunning. We scheduled an appointment for the shooting and waited for the results. It did not took long until the first samples were exchanged and an additional interview was booked. What can I say? We made it. ✨

Along with that, Swallowtail Equestrian has multiple large pastures with lush green grass and run-in sheds as well as two dry paddocks for the horses who get chunky off of air.
