You do go into conversation mode I hope? After that tm to get rid of the conversation box. Also, make the time of day around noon and position yourself in a such a way that the spoken to character has their face full in the sun. Can you redo the Drill Sergeant (and add the refid, and do you know what the terms are for him to appear)? Half of his face has shadow. If it's still a bit dark, fiddle with auto contrast, auto tone, auto color, brightness/contrast, shadows/highlights in a program like Photoshop. Jspoel 21:24, January 5, 2012 (UTC)

Seems you're getting the hang of it. The face is a good now, no shadow. Just a bit better mug shot (not too much space above the head, little more zoomed in. And can you set your resolution to max? 800x600, 80kb is not optimal. Can you set it to 1280x1024 in the Fallout launcher? The we'll have a sharper image, about 250k. And what are the refid's of the Drill Sergeant and the NCR Sergeant. Jspoel 21:26, January 6, 2012 (UTC)

I meant NCR recruit, my mistake. and I need the reference id, not the base id. Base id is easy, from the GECK, refid you can only get by clicking on the character in-game.

You need to click ~ and then click on the character. At the top of the screen will appear the refid.

Edit reverts

Hey can you revert bad edits using the button in the compare revision. It just makes easier for to check edits. The Australian Kiwi 20:54, January 7, 2012 (UTC)

On my feed it was showing you were taking the bad information out manually instead of just hitting the undo button in the edit comparison. It's easier because I can see what edits have been checked.

Re:Consumable updates

Yeah, doubtless it'll take time, but I'll get working on it. If you stumble across some, do change it too! -ΣΔ^{Let's talk!} 22:34, January 8, 2012 (UTC)

I mean if you come across one on a FNV consumable page you're editing just change it as a favour. I think I can handle this, I am part bot after all! -ΣΔ^{Let's talk!} 22:38, January 8, 2012 (UTC)

I don't think there are many "H" for hours, but if there are I will change it. For "s" however, it is more clear, considering all of them go like "+ x HP per second for x s" making it clearer, since it is using "seconds" already. But with minutes and hours, there is no "per hour" before, making it better to clarify. -ΣΔ^{Let's talk!} 22:43, January 8, 2012 (UTC)

Yessir! -ΣΔ^{Let's talk!} 22:47, January 8, 2012 (UTC)

Minutes

Original sent to SD, forwarding it to you

I'd rather see you change m to min. instead of minutes. With minutes it moves the word to the next line in Internet Explorer and that's less readable. Jspoel 22:53, January 8, 2012 (UTC)

When there's enough space, you can write minutes.

Polls

I was kidding about the poll suggestion. Just me trying to be a smartass. Anyway, I'm not sure how you make your polls, but maybe you should take a look at this. Also, the way Kastera did it was that he used to have a little comment at the start about his day or about something unrelated (like "Sorry for the late poll, I slept in; or "this week I had a few suggestions but the best was..."). You know, even if it's made up, it still makes them a bit more interesting to read. And maybe a logo or picture for the weekly polls would make them more attractive. Just a thought. 114.77.77.5 11:26, January 9, 2012 (UTC)

Image

Something's not going right when you upload images, resulting in an x. I uploaded it to my PC and I'm getting a bitmap image (bmp). Wikia doesn't accept bitmap images. Maybe it has also to do with capping .JPG. Try just saving it as .jpg Jspoel 22:49, January 14, 2012 (UTC)

Linking names

I think it's better to leave names like they are, I mean for example like Doctor Richards instead of Dr. Richards. Jspoel 23:13, January 14, 2012 (UTC)

I updated the Richards link on your talkpage. I like it just a bit better for readability.

Downtown

It's one of those I'm not sure of myself. I've looked on wikipedia but that's still inconclusive. Try asking Kastera, he's American and would know better. Jspoel 21:20, January 22, 2012 (UTC)

If you would like my input, I would say yes, they should be capped. It is a section of a location but unique to each location, for example Boston Downtown/Downtown Boston would be different from Los Angeles Downtown/Downtown Los Angeles. -ΣΔ^{Let's talk!} 21:29, January 22, 2012 (UTC)

Why did you lowercap downtown after SD's advice? I don't understand that. Jspoel 21:38, January 22, 2012 (UTC)

Yes I know and it's good you have faith in him. But he's saying uppercap the d in downtown and you move pages to downtown with lowercap d. Jspoel 21:44, January 22, 2012 (UTC)

Yes, let's remove those. They add to the cluttering of the stubpages and the less of those the better. Jspoel 22:19, January 22, 2012 (UTC)

Return

I visited chat today, and I realised how much I missed just hanging out with everyone. Also, Scarface said I might as well log in, considering everyone knows which anon I am anyway. I guess this way, I don't have to skulk around in the shadows as an anonymous user. You won't believe how annoying it is, not being able to upload pictures or make a forum page without typing in a code! Anyway, I'm currently writing a blog about my return, so keep on the lookout! 09:14, January 24, 2012 (UTC)

Thanks. Good to be back! 09:20, January 24, 2012 (UTC)

Wanted pages

Those red links on Mirars pages are valid. They can be made pages of. A lot of red links are in PRO_ITEM.MSG_(Fallout_2). I can't access it, can you? Jspoel 21:45, January 24, 2012 (UTC)

Probably the file is too large to load properly and crashes. Only solution is making pages of those red links or redirecting them to Fallout 2 miscellaneous items I think. Jspoel 22:35, January 24, 2012 (UTC)

Signature

Unfortunatly i wont be chaneging that part im afraid, you see that red link actually links people to the Interdimensional Rift Arena over at the Final Fantasy Wiki and the Final Fantasy Answers Wiki, it's a little fun project that ive taken part of and i kinda need it in my sig for its advertisement, if i could supplement it on this wikia i would but then it would not show up on the other two wikia's im afraid, sorry.TheNemesisx 23:46, January 24, 2012 (UTC)

Hunter

You added a split template to the Hunter (Fallout 3) page. I checked the GECK but it seems a leftover from Fallout 3. Have you encountered any hunters in New Vegas? Jspoel 20:47, January 28, 2012 (UTC)

Long time before I played Fallout 3? I'm talking about FNV, you played that after FO3 I presume. Did you see them in FNV? Jspoel 21:34, January 28, 2012 (UTC)

In saying that, I've been waiting on your mod or admin request for a very long time. If I were you, I'd skip the mod part, especially now Al has split it up. I can't see the use in those roles for you, but you'd make a great admin.

Closed your adminship request

I'm afraid I had to close your adminship request, Mystery. You have not been continuously active for 3 months, which is a requirement. You came back halfway through December from being 3 months away. So you'll have to wait till March 15th. To be honest, I'm not sure if going straight for adminship is such a good idea. Asking Kingclyde first for patroller rights would be better if you ask me. And don't get me wrong, you're active and are doing good work here, but I've noticed sometimes you use a bit awkward wording and making some strange bends when communication with others. I can't speak for others, but as I see it, you still need to work on that to pass an adminship request. I thought it be best to tell you this. I don't want you to get disappointed when an adminship request doesn't turn out the way you expect. Jspoel 14:52, February 3, 2012 (UTC)

I'm glad you don't take it too hard. We all appreciate your work and hope you continue with it, but I feel I had to use this opportunity to tell you what area you need to work on. Patroller rights you can ask right now. You spend a lot of time editing and have a good feel on what's valid content and what's not, so you can use the rollback. Jspoel 15:05, February 3, 2012 (UTC)

I also think the patroller position is a good in between step, and overall more appropriate for you, in my opinion. You've been extremely active here since your return and I think you'll benefit greatly from it. -ΣΔ^{Let's talk!} 19:38, February 3, 2012 (UTC)

Well in my opinion he is more than suited to go straight to admin. I've had this discussion with him before and he does not want to take an inbetween step. It's not a requirement to have held a previous role, and I don't think that in this cas he should've had too. I will look into this further. κηδεμόνας ^[~μιλώ~] 21:16, February 3, 2012 (UTC)

If you see on my page, Ci, he already sent in the patroller request. -ΣΔ^{Let's talk!} 21:21, February 3, 2012 (UTC)

I'm not interested in that. He's right Mystery, I'm afraid it was a clean break of over two months. If there was edits, albeit sporadic ones, then maybe you would've had a case, even if you have made over 4000 edits since that time. Like J said, you'll just have to wait until March 15th. Take your patroller rights now, and then when the time comes you'll just have something else to add to your app :). κηδεμόνας ^[~μιλώ~] 21:26, February 3, 2012 (UTC)

I'm simply saying he does express interest in the patroller role now. That is all. -ΣΔ^{Let's talk!} 21:29, February 3, 2012 (UTC)

No, that's not what he wanted Danny. Check my talk and you will see for yourself. Yes Mystery, but it's just over a month so not the end of the world. And you mean will comply right? :P κηδεμόνας ^[~μιλώ~] 21:57, February 3, 2012 (UTC)

Pro item (Fallout 2)

I have a request. Can you take a look at the red links on PRO ITEM.MSG (Fallout 2) on the Curse Fallout wiki? Here we can't see what's in it, but on The Vault you can. You seem to be familiar with the older Fallout games so I thought you could make some pages or redirect some red links. Jspoel 21:05, February 3, 2012 (UTC)

Links like bookcase and bookshelf can be redirected to the world object page, but only if you add an image to the world object page. Leave the others if you don't know. Another thing: I've tried to extract the Fallout 2 files (dat file), but I can't seem to access them (I need them for images, GECK stats). Do you know how that works? Jspoel 22:03, February 3, 2012 (UTC)

I think Tagaziel would know. I'll ask him. Jspoel 22:12, February 3, 2012 (UTC)

Fallout images

I've been doing that for some weeks now already. As soon as you replace them with models, the removed images show up in Special:UnusedFiles. And I'm checking that every day. So no worries. Jspoel 13:30, February 4, 2012 (UTC)

You mean Natalia Dubrovhsky? I've just checked in-game and file:FoModel Female VD.png is her model. Btw, if you're an aspiring admin, you should know that when you move a character from Sandy to Sandy (Fallout 2), Sandy needs to become an overview disambig page for both Sandys. That shouldn't be left a redirect. Jspoel 14:00, February 4, 2012 (UTC)

Leave Theresa like it is, if you can't find her model. The image that's on her page, is good enough for now. And yes, I meant a disambig page. Jspoel 14:20, February 4, 2012 (UTC)

Mystery polls

I was wondering if you could start including links to the SNM and to my text adventure here as yours is the most popular blog and it will help them get more popular. Tell me what you think. κηδεμόνας ^[~μιλώ~] 14:52, February 5, 2012 (UTC)

Well, technically, I can't lock pages that don't need locking, so I'm not going to bother. It'd be counted as abusing my powers, and its 'protected' anyway by the fact it's in my user space, so that note is just a reminder.

Reputation

If you refer to the Reputation links on the Fallout quests page, I'd say yes, cap reputation, it's clearly a (numbered) statistic. But if you would for example take the word reputation I just added to some Van Buren quest pages, I like it better with a downcap r. There the emphasis is on the refered to reputation and not on the word reputation itself. Jspoel 23:01, February 10, 2012 (UTC)

RE: Welcome back

All done! A lot of inactive administrators on this wiki. You haven't considered removing some? -=KAG=-^{My Pride} 14:10, February 11, 2012 (UTC)

Yeah, I guess there's not much point to removing any. I just feel it could look like the criteria for becoming an admin are a bit low when there are so many. -=KAG=-^{My Pride} 14:15, February 11, 2012 (UTC)

No, leave it capped. One of these days we probably need to discuss the down/upper cap thing again to come to some agreement on map marker locations. Jspoel 15:10, February 11, 2012 (UTC)

RE-Blog Comments

Sorry, I had already apologized for that. Sorry again.

Wanted pages

You mean like holodisk/notes and skill magazines wanted pages? They are template generated, meant for overview pages like Holodisks and notes. Except they are not used because there is no content for those pages. For example, you will see that the Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel holodisk and notes line is missing from the holodisks and notes page. If that red link is redirected or given content, then the page would automatically appear in the overview page. And also archive pages can't be fixed. Jspoel 22:22, February 13, 2012 (UTC)

Leave the Help:Archive link, don't know why it's in the list. About those dialogue files, I've checked here and they are not in the cut content list, so don't change that either. I've also been wondering about the PRO ITEM.MSG (Fallout) and PRO ITEM.MSG (Fallout 2) dialogue files, did you get those at any moment in the game? Otherwise maybe Tagaziel knows more about those merchant and item files. Jspoel 19:40, February 16, 2012 (UTC)

Bookcase, icechest, bookshelf (and tool board?) still need to be added the Fallout and Fallout 2 world objects, can you get an image of those objects? And do you know the proto id's and (SPECIAL) stats of Fallout characters? I'd like to have those in the infobox. Jspoel 20:13, February 16, 2012 (UTC)

And I was wondering, is there a console mode in Fallout? Like the ~ in Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas.

To get screencaps, search Google for Fraps. That's the screencapture program I've used for all those images I uploaded to here. Jspoel 20:30, February 16, 2012 (UTC)
