 The Chronicles of Kainzor Book 1 - Book 2 - Book 3 - Book 4

Alphabetical order?
Since a talk page for a template is pretty much invisible, I figured I'd repost this here, so we can have an actual discussion about this:


 * "I don't have the issue with the chronology, but where was it said ordering by first name was wrong? And if so, why hasn't anybody fixed the Black Flag template? Also, why move North Atlantic back to the front? You can't argue that "North Atlantic" should go first because the second word begins with an 'a' :/ Same with moving New York to the back - 'n' comes before 'r' last time I checked the alphabet."


 * Finally, why remove the link to the ACRG memories template? As I said when I added it, I think it might be useful to have it there, as there's no easy way to reach the memories template if you don't know the name of a memory that appears in that particular game."

Thanks for reading. 16:51, November 25, 2014 (UTC)


 * Crook, how do they do it in school? They list people alphabetically by last names, so there's no point in going out of our way to make up something silly like ordering by first names. Same deal with New York/North Atlantic - A's before Y. Memories, no other template has those, and Genetic memory is already linked.


 * I did the ordering by first name in the first place, until Sima said by last name is more commonly used, then I had flashback to school ordering. And I'll get around to re-ordering other game templates too. --Kainzorus Prime ⚜  Walkie-talkie  17:39, November 25, 2014 (UTC)


 * Meh, I found first name neater as some characters don't have a last name. Very well. I think "no other template has those" is a bit silly - if it's useful, then why remove it? We can always add it to the other templates.


 * I still object to North Atlantic being listed first - shouldn't New York and North Atlantic just be listed under "n", rather than "a" and "y"? They're not people, so why list them like they are? (btw, shouldn't Elise come in front of Arno? "De la Serre" before "Dorian" right?) 17:45, November 25, 2014 (UTC)


 * You make a point with locations. I excluded the whole "la" "de la" and others, since they basically just "of the" in translation, and went with "Serre", same with others. Doesn't help Frenchies have ridiculous tendency of super long, convoluted titles and names. --Kainzorus Prime ⚜  Walkie-talkie  17:48, November 25, 2014 (UTC)


 * Alright, but remember to be consistent if you're taking that approach - Chevalier de la Vérendrye should be at the end then, right? 17:54, November 25, 2014 (UTC)


 * No, that's a title, go by Louis-Joseph Gaultier and place it between F and H. Yes, it's convoluted, but still adheres to principle of actual last names. --Kainzorus Prime ⚜  Walkie-talkie  18:02, November 25, 2014 (UTC)


 * Gaultier isn't a surname, I think, more like a middle name. I'd still go for "de la Vérendrye" as last name, judging from the brief browse I've done on the de la Vérendrye family on Wikipedia and elsewhere.


 * That, or include the Gaultier as part of the surname. Which would make it "Chevalier Gaultier de la Vérendrye"... that also sounds a bit clumsy actually :s 18:45, November 25, 2014 (UTC)

Actually, Kain, all of the other game templates do have their memories linked under "Terms and gameplay". Just, FYI. --Zero-ELEC (talk) 20:36, November 25, 2014 (UTC)


 * Though we should acknowledge that those memories have been recently changed by you, Zero-ELEC, to link to the template, rather than a category. Not that I mind, I think it's a much better option :) 20:42, November 25, 2014 (UTC)


 * To be fair, I only change the ones where linking to the category leads to the memories that aren't from the game. (I.e. Animus 1.28 for Assassin's Creed/Altaïr's Chronicles/Bloodlines, Animus Omega for IV: Black Flag/Pirates, Animus 2.0 for II/II: Discovery.) Most were already there. --Zero-ELEC (talk) 20:51, November 25, 2014 (UTC)

2da files for KotOR
Now that I've played a lot of Jedi Knight over the past month, it's time to get back to KotOR2. I was installing mods, and noticed that the "spells.2da" file from Ultimate Sound Mod could not be copied due to the "spells.2da" file from TSLRCM. Now, I know that I need the Kotor Tool to edit the file (I've got "spells.2da" open right now), but what exactly do I do in order to get the two mods running smoothly together? -- 23:54, November 26, 2014 (UTC)


 * Welp, you gotta compare what's different between the two, that's about it. Just blow up two 2da editor windows to fullscreen, open each file and then minimize-unminimize the other to see what's different, then copy the stuff from one to the other you want. --Kainzorus Prime ⚜  Walkie-talkie  01:18, November 27, 2014 (UTC)


 * On inspection, I've concluded that the only difference is that USM only has two extra rows, and is exactly the same otherwise. So, would simply pasting it into the override not do too much harm? -- 17:27, November 27, 2014 (UTC)


 * Yeah, you should be able to just overwrite it like that without issues. --Kainzorus Prime <font color="#7575DB" size="6">⚜  <font color="#4C99A6">Walkie-talkie  17:33, November 27, 2014 (UTC)


 * That's good, because if I have to reinstall the game again, I'll go nuts. But I think I'll be fine this time, since I installed mods in a more strategic manner. By the way, when do you plan (if ever) on uploading the games to your YouTube channel? Since I've been uploading the soundtrack to YouTube, I've been dying to see someone with experience play the game. -- 17:37, November 27, 2014 (UTC)


 * Well, I'm waiting for a few particular mods. Namely the TOR-esque HK droids, and TFU Darth Sion. Might also delay on account of K1 Restoration approaching, but not sure about that one yet. --<font color="#7575DB" face="OCR A" size="4">Kainzorus Prime <font color="#7575DB" size="6">⚜  <font color="#4C99A6">Walkie-talkie  17:46, November 27, 2014 (UTC)


 * Not too sure why you'd want the TOR-style HKs. If anything, I'd mod TOR and change their HKs. But heck, we've all got different tastes. Also, what restoration of KotOR1? Other than Sleheyron, I wasn't aware that anything major had been removed. -- 18:02, November 27, 2014 (UTC)

Initiate
Then what's the reason for removing it. It shouldn't be removed the interview shows that the Initiate and Research Analyst are different characters. --Cococrash11 (talk) 20:32, November 27, 2014 (UTC)


 * We have separate articles for those, and the contents of them clearly indicate the difference between characters. --<font color="#7575DB" face="OCR A" size="4">Kainzorus Prime <font color="#7575DB" size="6">⚜  <font color="#4C99A6">Walkie-talkie  21:23, November 27, 2014 (UTC)

That's funny coming from a couple of editors that can't even tell if Black Flag and Rogue's Research Analyst are different or not with substantial evidence. --Cococrash11 (talk) 01:35, November 28, 2014 (UTC)


 * They are different, and it is obvious from the game itself. Which is why we have Helix research analyst and Abstergo Entertainment research analyst articles. --<font color="#7575DB" face="OCR A" size="4">Kainzorus Prime <font color="#7575DB" size="6">⚜  <font color="#4C99A6">Walkie-talkie  02:19, November 28, 2014 (UTC)

If any of you editors bother to read and think hard on what I wrote on Talk: Initiate why would Alexandre Amancio say in the Interview that the Initiate and Research Analyst are different characters. If that's case why wouldn't they also have an Assassin's Creed interview saying Black Flag and Rogue's Research Analyst are different characters like the Initiate. --Cococrash11 (talk) 02:30, November 28, 2014 (UTC)


 * If you want to convince somebody of a point, that kind of attitude is not going to help. Now I really doubt Kain will listen to you. -- 14:46, November 28, 2014 (UTC)

Some of their attitude isn't any better than me. I already say the first thing the first time and they give of an attitude and treats what I said like it was nothing. So yeah I tend to have an attitude when someone gives me an attitude. --Cococrash11 (talk) 19:35, November 28, 2014 (UTC)

Hi! I noticed that the image for the 13 Vendemiaire article was removed from the page. Could you please tell me why it was removed? I believed it to be a 100% safe image because it was on the Napoleon Bonaparte page for a long time and was placed on the wiki by somebody else.

Hi, why do you think the page should be deleted? The Manor was where the Kenways lived for several years and where Edward died. I think that makes it worthy of having a page.


 * Because we don't know what the manor was called exactly, for one. Second, was it a manor, or a house?

Help with image
Hi, Kain.

I was just wondering if you could help or explain what is happening to ? I've uploaded it twice & it keeps turning really low quality for no reason. Is there something wrong with the way I've uploaded it or something because this is really frustrating me?

Thanks. Outsider (talk) 21:57, December 22, 2014 (UTC)

Communications
Hey Kain, could hop on the IRC for a bit, or do you have Facebook (may have asked you before)? I have a question and would prefer the conversation be more instantaneous than these talk pages. 22:24, December 22, 2014 (UTC)

My new computer
Sorry to bug you twice in a day, but I was wondering if I could ask you some questions about getting my new PC?

So you already know my budget (£250-300), & you've said it won't make an amazing PC. But I was wondering specifically how good it will be. Since the only way I really know how to judge a good PC without research is based on RAM, how much do you think I'll be able to get when the money is spread between all the components? Is 4 realistic? It doesn't sound too high to me.

Also, if I can grab the specs before it gets built, would you mind judging them for me? It would be nice to know how I can improve it on my birthday.

Thanks. :) Outsider (talk) 22:55, December 22, 2014 (UTC)

 * I don't mean to be pushy with my question, but do you think 4GB of RAM is likely for a PC of my budget? 4 would be enough for what I plan to play. Outsider (talk) 01:19, December 23, 2014 (UTC)


 * DDR2 or DDR3? I personally run with 8 gigs of DDR2, since my motherboard is ancient, but if it's 4 gigs of DDR3, it should do. Then again, 4 gigs in general falls into decent-enough category. -- <font color="#7575DB" face="OCR A" size="4">Kainzorus Prime <font color="#7575DB" size="6">⚜  <font color="#4C99A6">Walkie-talkie  01:22, December 23, 2014 (UTC)

 * 2 is older, 3 is newer. They're also exclusive, so check which one goes into your motherboard. You won't slot a DDR3 into a DDR2 port and vice versa. -- <font color="#7575DB" face="OCR A" size="4">Kainzorus Prime <font color="#7575DB" size="6">⚜  <font color="#4C99A6">Walkie-talkie  02:31, December 23, 2014 (UTC)


 * Ok. I will check with the guy who's making it. Outsider (talk) 15:48, December 23, 2014 (UTC)


 * It's the only thing aside of the processor that you should check for port compatibility. Same deal goes with AMD/Intel processors - those have different ports, and also AMD AM3/3+ sockets.

Update
Hi, Kain!

First off, I hope you had a good christmas. Secondly, I just wanted to give you a little update on my situation with my computer & my plans. I hope that's ok?

So, as I predicted, I achieved between £250-300; receiving £295 exactly. It could have been more, but unfortunately I owed my mother & my brother money. So, anyway, that's what I've got to work with.

On to my plans, I'm thinking of telling the guy who's going to build my PC to try & base it off the recommended specs for The Witcher 2. Would you say that's impossible? This is a serious question because I genuinely have no clue what to expect with my budget. What's the best game you would expect me to be able to play after building a PC with my budget? I probably should have asked you this sooner because then I can do some research on those specs.

Thanks. I really appreciate your help. Until I have a chat with the guy, you're the only source of information I really have, so I'm really appreciative of your time. :) Outsider (talk) 00:23, December 27, 2014 (UTC)


 * It should be enough for these parts. Though scrounging an extra 50-100 bucks in the meantime should also help, just in case. -- <font color="#7575DB" face="OCR A" size="4">Kainzorus Prime <font color="#7575DB" size="6">⚜  <font color="#4C99A6">Walkie-talkie  00:42, December 27, 2014 (UTC)


 * So would you say that's the limit I can hope to achieve or could I maybe try & aim higher? Also, this may seem like a really dumb question, but will getting parts specifically required for the recommended specs of The Witcher 2 be problematic to playing other games that may even require less? For example, could it be an issue if I wanted to play ACB with these specs, which I believe are lower?


 * About the extra cash, I've mentioned before that I'll be upgrading in April when it's my birthday. But there's no chance I'll have enough to consider upgrading any earlier than that. Outsider (talk) 01:11, December 27, 2014 (UTC)

D'you think you could take a few screenshots of the marine animals you can hunt. I vaguely remember you uploading an image of the underwater sharks, but I can't seem to find it again. Anyways, yeah, we'd need the great white, the bull shark, the hammerhead shark, the orca/killer whale, the white whale and the humpback whale, I think. Thanks again! 14:52, December 29, 2014 (UTC)

Hey, Kain.
I was just wondering how much money you would expect would be required to upgrade from these recommended requirements to these minimum requirements?

I'm going to try & get those recommended requirements when I get my PC sorted, so I'm just curious how much it will take after to get it up to the standards of Unity & such. I imagine I'll have maybe £200-250 for my birthday at the minimum to upgrade it with. And after that I should be getting money for my GCSE results mid-way through the year, so I can give it another boost then.

Thanks. Outsider (talk) 19:52, January 1, 2015 (UTC)

 * The opening quote should be relevant to the page, in this case his first self-introductory part fits best.

Good news
Hey Kain!

I've just had a conversation with the guy who's building my PC & he thinks he can get me a PC for about £500 that will run Unity at at least minimum specs. I wouldn't have had the money, but my mother & my step-father have offered to give me the money if I pay them back on my birthday. The guy also offered me his old graphics card for £20 which is actually really good, so I've got a good deal there. I'm also using my current power supply because I had to buy a new one less than a year ago & it's decent enough. He's going to give me three different sets of specs & then I can choose which one I want. I'll give you the specs when I get them, so you can give me some advice, if that's ok with you? Outsider (talk) 17:01, January 5, 2015 (UTC)


 * Sure. Tell me the details on his graphics card too. Also, be aware that Unity will run like shit even if you're way past -recommended- specs. It's currently a clusterfuck, might get better when or if we get further patches. -- <font color="#7575DB" face="OCR A" size="4">Kainzorus Prime <font color="#7575DB" size="6">⚜  <font color="#4C99A6">Walkie-talkie  17:24, January 5, 2015 (UTC)

Final Update (Maybe...)
Hey mate!

I've just sorted out getting my PC. I couldn't grab the specs because I sorted it over the phone & the guy who's making it cleared all of my worries. It's costing me £555 & this includes a new keyboard & mouse (which I need as much as a new computer). Although I don't have all the information to give you, I can tell you that it should be able to run any game currently out there; including current-gen games like The Witcher 3 etc... It has 8GB of RAM just to give you an idea of what it's going to be like. The guy (who I'm not naming for the sake of his privacy) said that I shouldn't have to upgrade it for a few years, & even then I should only need to buy a new graphics card according to him.

Out of curiousity, how good is your computer? How much RAM do you have especially; that always interests me because all other specs go over my ill-informed head.

Sorry I haven't given you the specs like I said I would. It didn't seem necessary because he gave me three options, the cheapest PC being £470, & I went for the more expensive choice, with him assuring me that it could handle any current game decently. I'm grateful for you putting up with my nagging; I'm sure I must get annoying sometimes :). One thing I promise you I will do for certain is give you the specs once I've got it. That should be easy & then you can judge me. Hopefully I have reached the PC master race standards... Not really. I hate people who do that. I'm still a console gamer at heart. Anyway, I'm rambling, thanks for putting up with me! Outsider (talk) 20:23, January 7, 2015 (UTC)


 * I'm running on 8gigs of DDR2, since I can't slot DDR3 or more ram in general, since this mobo doesn't support more. Also, the guy should be right, GPU is what is the most frequent replacement. But I can't say anything else until I know about your processor. -- <font color="#7575DB" face="OCR A" size="4">Kainzorus Prime <font color="#7575DB" size="6">⚜  <font color="#4C99A6">Walkie-talkie  20:39, January 7, 2015 (UTC)


 * I can tell you without knowing exactly what the processor is that it is good. The main thing he pointed out was that if I went for the £470 option, my processor would suffer for it. And another option was £510 & he said that that would have a better processor. And obviously the one I'm getting he said would have a really good processor. I can't remember what he said completely, but he said something about MD8. Does that ring any bells? Outsider (talk) 21:20, January 7, 2015 (UTC)

Morrigan
While I do get the physical (or digital) evidence of the ship having its plaque before Shay even mentions its name, my instincts tell me that his mention of the Morrigan's name for the ship is more like Edward did for the Jackdaw by naming it after a piece of their respective heritages, and given Shay's acquisition of the ship so early into Sequence 1, it may not have had any other plaques for the ship because the Sofia team were more concerned with finishing the game and not giving it a previous name to reflect its smuggler or British construction. Slate Vesper (talk) 22:21, January 8, 2015 (UTC)


 * Well, it is a British ship, since he goes "those blockheads won't be needing it" talking about British guards, and given how Chevalier references Merlin, it's not that much of a stretch for it to be originally named like that by the British themselves. -- <font color="#7575DB" face="OCR A" size="4">Kainzorus Prime <font color="#7575DB" size="6">⚜  <font color="#4C99A6">Walkie-talkie  22:29, January 8, 2015 (UTC)


 * Perhaps so, considering Morrigan and Morgana seem to have some etymological connection, but it seems to me that the name Morrigan in of itself would be more representative of the Irish as she plays a part of their mythology. Also, since mythology comes into it, and that many "gods" are deified First Civs, would you think she may be connected to Juno or another Precursor, given how Brahman shows Durga?

 * The Juno part only slipped in because I read this excerpt from Wikipedia:

"The Morrígan ("phantom queen") or Mórrígan ("great queen"), also written as Morrígu or in the plural as Morrígna, and spelt Morríghan or Mór-ríoghain in Modern Irish, is a figure from Irish mythology who appears to have been considered a goddess, although she is not explicitly referred to as such in the texts. The Morrígan is a goddess of battle, strife, and sovereignty. She sometimes appears in the form of a crow, flying above the warriors, and in the Ulster Cycle she also takes the forms of an eel, a wolf and a cow. She is generally considered a war deity comparable with the Germanic Valkyries, although her association with a cow may also suggest a role connected with wealth and the land."

- Morrigan on Wikipedia.


 * Battle, strife and sovereignty sound like something Juno's all into, and the part about the connection to the earth made me think of how she is sometime perceived as the Kanien'kehá:ka Sky Woman due to her role in the Grand Temple.


 * But, putting that aside, I get what Rogue shows for Shay's ship, but do you see where I might be thinking of Shay renaming it? After all, the British using an Irish goddess' name for their ship sounds a little far-fetched to me. :S Slate Vesper (talk) 23:59, January 8, 2015 (UTC)


 * I do, but it seems more like an off hand comment from Shay, as if he didn't actually think too long before "renaming" the ship. Which further makes me think he saw the plaque and it was an off hand mention to Chevalier. That said, ask Storm, he has the huge-ass guide book.

 * Wouldn't know about that. But you should be alright with this setup for a few years of current releases. Provided the ports are actually good, and not on the level of Unity.

I know you said that my CPU would make up for my graphics card, & the guy who built it said a similar thing, but I'm not sure. What settings do you think consoles run games at that are on PC?

Outsider (talk) 17:37, January 12, 2015 (UTC)

You can't really compare specs, since PC versions need optimization to account for multitude of configs, unlike one-size-fits-all that consoles are. But anyway, you should be good if you want to move to PC as primary platform for games with that rig. I may hazard a comparison that it's higher-end than PS4 is right now, but don't quote me on it.

Yes, those symbols I think. If you could just make some clear shots of everything you pass by, that'd be great. The entrance, the halls, a shot of the main room in the opposite direction, anything of note or out of the ordinary. Some of the moving pillars etc. Maybe, if possible, some of the defense mechanisms too, without any guards swarming the image. Just as many as you can. -- 11:01, January 24, 2015 (UTC)

Game-Debate
How's everything going, Kain?

Recently I made an account on a website called Game-Debate just to double check whether my computer really could play The Witcher 3. I know you said above that I should be able to run it at least on high with a decent fps, but I think you may have overestimated my PC a little. If you scroll down on here, you can see what another person had to say about my PC's capabilities.

You may be wondering why I've messaged you about this, & it's simply because I don't know whether to take your word or his. I don't want to buy the game on PC & regret not getting it for PS4, so I was wondering whether you could back up your judgement or maybe make a new one based on what this guy has to say? You'd really be doing me a favour because I'm still trying to figure out what my PC is capable of. The most demanding game I've played so far would probably have to be DayZ.

Thanks, mate. Outsider (talk) 16:26, January 28, 2015 (UTC)


 * It all depends on the tweaking. The guy is full of shit when it comes to resolution though. You can get good visual fidelity even on a bloody 1366x768 resolution, as long as you crank up other settings high enough. "Ooooh 1080p" and all that can go to hell. Sure, it looks crisp on a native 1080p monitor, but as I recall, you don't have one that large anyhow, so it's one issue off your plate there.


 * You'll squeeze decent mid-high settings out of it without too much of an fps drop. Plus, you can always tweak individual settings and lower the framerate eaters if necessary. Or use a config file or third party tweaking soft, though I'm not sure if those are applicable for Witcher series. -- <font color="#7575DB" face="OCR A" size="4">Kainzorus Prime <font color="#7575DB" size="6">⚜  <font color="#4C99A6">Walkie-talkie  16:59, January 28, 2015 (UTC)

 * By the way, do you know if Xbox One controllers can be hooked up to PC? I need one to use for games like this, but my old Xbox controller doesn't work very well, so I'm not sure whether to get a new Xbox 360 controller or an Xbox One controller.

I still need to get an Xbox 360 controller either way to play The Witcher 2, though, but this does mean I can use my PS4 controller when I get TW3. It's cool that they would add that kind of support considering it's rare to see a developer support Duelshock in their PC titles. Outsider (talk) 18:50, January 28, 2015 (UTC)

Kingston & Havana
Hey Kain,

Could you take some screenshots of Kingston and Havana for me? I've got some ideas for Kingston, but I haven't had time to run about in Havana yet, so maybe start with Kingston first. Alright, so I'd like screens of the following (and whatever else catches your fancy).


 * Kingston's Windmill
 * Kingston's Parish Church
 * Kingston's Watch Tower
 * Laurens Prins' Manor - a shot of the manor itself at least, squeeze in a screenshot of the gardens and interior rooms if you want.
 * Sugar plantations - a shot of slaves working in the fields, and the warehouse if you want.
 * Slaves being sold - I spotted these when walking around, but there will be merchants selling slaves close to the coast (so when you enter Kingston from the pier for example). It's a row of three slaves, with the merchant walking around.
 * Kingston's streets - I don't think there's any clear distinction of wealth in Kingston like in New Orleans, so one screenshot should do, but you can take more if you wish. It's more to get a feel of how the city looks, cause your zoomed-out screenshots don't really work for that.

Thanks in advance :) Again, if you see anything else worth screenshotting, feel free. 14:15, February 16, 2015 (UTC)

 * Windmill should be easy to spot - it's to the west of the city, near the plantation that's part of Prins' land. The Parish Church is the biggest church in Kingston, it should be roughly in the center of the city (it's positioned opposite the house where Rogers threw his going-away party). The Watch Tower is in the east of the city I think, near the coast.

Edinburgh Castle
'Ello, Kain

Just wondering if you could get me a few screenshots of Edinburgh Castle? The ones in "The Mad Doctor's Castle" gallery are very Connor-centric. If you're up for it, I'm really only looking for like shots of the grand hall (room with the clock), the personal museum (room with the bear statue) and the dungeon-place, with all the skeletons and shit.

'Aight that's all. I take it Bastienne hasn't worked out? Thanks for reading :) 13:49, March 21, 2015 (UTC)

Rogue & Unity
Hey Kain,

I don't mean to sound pushy, but could you screenshot the Rogue and Unity memories a bit... faster? I don't know if you're busy, so if you are, I'm sorry. We do have Vatsa with us again, but he hasn't played either of the newest entries, so I'm not sure if I can ask him he's still catching up apparently. Thanks for reading. 11:14, March 30, 2015 (UTC)


 * I'm juggling several things at the moment, so screencapping takes a lower priority. But I'll chug something out this week. -- <font color="#7575DB" face="OCR A" size="4">Kainzorus Prime <font color="#7575DB" size="6">⚜  <font color="#4C99A6">Walkie-talkie  15:09, March 30, 2015 (UTC)
