Title: Things I wish my VFK items could do...
Post by: MamaOwl on January 15, 2010, 01:22 AM
This is a wishful thinking list:

I wish my didgeridoo made didgeridoo noises.

I wish Billy Bass had a second audio choice.

I wish I could turn *off* the t.v....lol!

I wish the fireplace in the Victorian Living Room worked. Also the pizza oven.

I wish I could sort my room list... I get lost

I wish there was a "spooky sound" option for the spooky rooms.

O.k., there's no actual loss to my quality of life, but it's fun to dream  :waveh:

princess told the developers she wished she could hold her doll and carry her around with her. They actually responded
back to her saying that was the kind of interactions and enhancements they are working on and great minds think alike! LOL!
So there is some HOPE that your dreams will come true!  :msmile:

I know the developers must work their butts off for all the cool things they come up with :). BTW, my wishes are not too serious; I'm very happy with what I have :yes!:

Just curious King, but do you, by chance, own a GREEN Macaw?  :lolg:

This is fun! I think we all know what you mean Bronwyn. We are thrilled with our creative VFK things, but it is always fun to dream!  :dance2:

First of all, mir4mad, what a precious suggestion by your little princess and how awesome that they responded and are thinking the same way! Woot!

I wish my bassviolin could play when I sit near it and have a choice of songs to play.
I wish my armonica also had more song choices - it is so beautiful!
I wish I could get my early beach balls to stop bouncing!  :lolg: :sur:

OK, this is a wish for a new item...
I wish for a piano that would play when we sit at it. But, you could also use a music maker of some sort (like a staff to put the notes on of different length with rests, etc.) to create your own tune it could play. I guess this could even be a wish with the armonica. If you have ever played "Animal Crossing" for the Nintendo DS, they have a song maker where you can create your own town tune. OK, I found a pic of the animal crossing interface to creating a simple tune:

Do the beach balls stop when you rotate them? They make me laggy...lol..

I love the armonica. We ended up spending the next hour reading about it online. I'm a homeschool mom so it worked out to be a nice teachable moment. Quite a few of those with two kids also on VFK :D.

My kids are animal crossing junkies. A "programmable" piano (or armonica, or bass violin) would be really cool. Not to criticize the developers *at all*; they come up with amazing creative things that are beautifully rendered. I'm just talkin...

You know the haystacks in that mural they gave us?   Maybe, just maybe, they hid a needle in one of those?  :rofl1:   

Oh, I would SO be the first to find that needle and permanently stop those beach balls!  >:D

You'd have to find the needle in the haystack though, and that would be a whole other problem :).

I guess they added the "off" feature for the golden beach balls and the Christmas rubber ball. Off is good.

We homeschool also and we found the armonica to be something we wanted to look up also! I have a big music background, but was not aware of Ben Franklin's musical inventions. One thing I love about VFK is being able to take some quests, etc. and really have fun finding new things out beyond the game.

Again, we love what we have in game, but it is fun to think outside the box.  :dance2:

Yup, happened in our house:  we too are homeschoolers, and we too looked up the armonica on line!  Very interesting.  Our son had read a biography on Ben Franklin last year, but I don't recall it addressing his musical inventions....

Does anyone remember the musical button things they put out the last month or so in vmk?  Those were so fun! You put them on the floor and when you walk on them it would play the song you made.

Something like that would be fun on vfk!  :)

I used those to make songs there Rosie! Loved those! Maybe they could have one of those giant keyboards for the floor like the one at F.A.O Schwartz in the movie "Big".

This keyboard now runs $250,000.00! The video above has 2 peoplemaking some awesome music on the keyboard!
