User talk:Gabriel Auditore

IRC
By an ancient ritual involving the burning of a taco hat, one may summon me to the mythical realm of the IRC. All I ask is that you follow the format shown below:


 * 1) Get your ass on the IRC, now. ~



Apprenticeship(not official)
Hey GI, It's Bob. Just heard you're signing up to be an Apprentice. Came by to wish you good luck.Thumbs Up.

Thanks Bob, and it's Apprentice, not Admin. 10:46, September 22, 2012 (UTC)

Oh yeah. Thanks and Hows my new sig and Username.


 * I like the font. I'm going to try and change mine to the AC font. Assuming I can be bothered, that is. 11:09, September 22, 2012 (UTC)

It looks good. The name is cool too I guess =) 10:55, September 22, 2012 (UTC)

Uh...you do know that the sig file still says ssj456sharath right? 11:14, September 22, 2012 (UTC)

It gets redirected you know.

Interview
I'm good to interview you if you can hop on the IRC now, I'm free for the next 2 - 3 hours. That is all. -- Teller Words, On my Screen :O 11:06, September 22, 2012 (UTC)

I would listen in but that's not allowed. Obviously. I'll read the log though. Pro-tip for Gabe: Leanardo did not join the Assassin's ;) 11:13, September 22, 2012 (UTC)

Apprenticeship (official)
Congratz on becoming an apprentice! Wish you luck and have a Cookie! ~That's about it. Also, Blaidd and GI? Wonder how this will turn out...... 15:44, September 23, 2012 (UTC)


 * Don't we all? 15:48, September 23, 2012 (UTC)


 * Woohooo, seems like there's a new potential assassin recruited here. COngrats on you.... 15:55, September 23, 2012 (UTC)


 * Congrats GI!!! lucky bastard   Fairy Tail Grand Master 16:06,9/23/2012

Thanks everyone; I appreciate it! =D @TRU - I'm pretty sure it will turn out just fine, considering Blaidd is Dai, and I'm already Rank 2 ;P @Fairy, luck had nothin' to do with it, bub. 16:11, September 23, 2012 (UTC)

Congrats on becoming an Apprentice, Gabe. I know you'll be a useful asset to the Wiki, and I can tell you're going to progress well. :) Slate Vesper (talk) 16:56, September 23, 2012 (UTC)

Thank you Slate! I'll try my best. =) 16:58, September 23, 2012 (UTC)

Very good, very good. Congrats & How'd the Interview go? 09:09, September 24, 2012 (UTC)

It went well, thanks. =) Teller will probably add the log to the Coop or Progress log soon enough and you can see it for yourself then. Links are ɣ and ε at the bottom right of the page. 09:30, September 24, 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for the info. =). 09:34, September 24, 2012 (UTC)

Oh congrats! Zephalian (  Dossier  ) (  Briefing  )  09:35, September 24, 2012 (UTC)

Congratulations, GI! Knew you would pass :D

Thanks Arc; I don't think I'd have had the guts to sign up if it weren't for the support from you and a few others. And thank you Zeph; I don't believe we've had the pleasure of speaking beforehand, but welcome back to the wiki! =) 11:00, September 24, 2012 (UTC)

Congrats, Gabriel! Oh and the you should put the Apprentice revamp temp above the normal revamp temp :P. Well, it's more like it would be better that way.-- Odranoelluta Talk ✲ http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/marvel-cinematic-universe/images/1/18/Sig.png 11:02, September 24, 2012 (UTC)

I was wondering whether it goes above or below =/ Thanks Odran =) 11:04, September 24, 2012 (UTC)

Good luck with the revamp GI, you're going to need it. I also saw the IRC log. I guess your interview went Okay, You are a natural. Anyway goodluck again. =) 11:08, September 24, 2012 (UTC)

HOW MUCH LONGER????
I have been frantically watching every AC3 video to date and have now been foiled by the government. I hope YT comes back before October 31st because then it'll just be spoilers. I guess you would know how annoying life is without youtube..... 01:59, September 26, 2012 (UTC)

Yep that's true. I agree with you. 02:37, September 26, 2012 (UTC)

Nothing is true. =P Also, I'm just using a proxy to circumvent this, because I honestly think of the YT ban as nothing more than something that's in the way. Also, according to Hutchy, if you've decided you're going to get the game, you should stop watching the previews right about now (he said it a few days ago) and enjoy the game afterwards. 11:21, September 26, 2012 (UTC)

Anyway, how's you apprenticeship going? 11:59, September 26, 2012 (UTC)

Images
Hey Gabriel, when uploading images from comics to in-universe pages, be sure to just leave it at one image square (or whatever the proper term is) and not multiple in one image. Also, it is not required to remove text from text bubbles. Personally, I think it looks worse, since it just creates a big blob of white in the middle of images. You can't remove the bubble, so I figure you may just as well leave the text in. EDIT: There aren't any rules, putting multiple squares into one image just looks chaotic and less straightforward. ;) -- 12:49, September 26, 2012 (UTC)

IRC, the land of words
Thanks Gabe that really helps, now i'm going to dig a lot of things from you. yep a lot...

Be prepared... 18:23, September 28, 2012 (UTC)

The Literal Trailer...
It just occured to me that Tobuscus never made a AC3 Literal....... Sigh. I have been looking forward to one since June. He better give a reason as to why he didn't, in fact since you can use YT can you check if he has made a literal trailer since Darksiders2? 04:31, September 29, 2012 (UTC)

He hasn't. It's sad. 10:31, September 29, 2012 (UTC)

Skin Pack?
Okay, so I was going through your userpage (actually stalking) and I noticed the screen-shot of your desktop. It looked like the Animus 2.03 desktop, so I was wondering whether you could give me the link. -- 08:00, September 30, 2012 (UTC)


 * 'Tis not a skin pack, but a Rainmeter theme. This link should point you in the right direction: Rainmeter+Dreamscene themes. Let me know if you need any help setting it up. 08:52, September 30, 2012 (UTC)


 * Thanks GI, much appreciated, and how's your apprenticeship coming along? -- 09:54, September 30, 2012 (UTC)


 * Okay, so I got the video and already set it as desktop background, but how do I get those buttons?-- 10:12, September 30, 2012 (UTC)


 * Got it, anyway thanks


 * Gr. Edit conflict. I'm finished with my task and waiting for Blaidd to check it and give me/let me pick a new one. As for your query: Follow the instructions on the video regarding Rainmeter. I'm guessing you've done the Dreamscene part right, so just install Rainmeter and activate the theme he uploaded. 10:20, September 30, 2012 (UTC)


 * Right, I got it it currently looks like this. Thanks again. 13:33, September 30, 2012 (UTC)

Looks similar to Storm's =). I'd have gone with Animus 3.01 myself, but it uses the Animus 2.03 buttons and I don't like inconsistency. 14:11, September 30, 2012 (UTC)

A token of Gratitude
Here's a token of my gratitude from me. I know it's nothing but it's the least I could do([|Link]), also put it on deviant. 13:49, October 1, 2012 (UTC)

Thanks Bob, that made me LOL xD 13:59, October 1, 2012 (UTC)

Well, you helped mew a lot so I just made 1 small image and gave it to you. 117.193.249.171 14:04, October 1, 2012 (UTC)

The Chain
Hi Gabriel, do you know where can i download Assassin's Creed: The Chain? I hope you can help me. Thanks in advance.

Arr, we don't be dealin' with pirates here. 16:35, October 2, 2012 (UTC)

This.
Is SPARTA!

Because someone had to make this joke sooner or later. --Kainzorus Prime Walkie-talkie  16:36, October 2, 2012 (UTC)

Indeed. ;) You can expect that line to pop up at least once in Spartan's Creed at some point. 16:43, October 2, 2012 (UTC)

THIS IS WIKIA!

Anyway, here's a link. Anyway I could improve it. 15:28, October 3, 2012 (UTC)

Interesting.......Hey GI, I had an idea. Could you make me a staff avatar? Not for using of course, just for the lulz and I want to see what you could do with it. Take in mind what you know about me: Batman,AC and Randomness (The Riddler?) Tell me what you come up with on my talk-page. If it's too difficult I don't mind, I just wanted to picture myself as staff (Ridiculous!) 16:49, October 3, 2012 (UTC)

Actually, I don't think we should be using the Staff Avatar templates without permission. Bob, if it's okay with you, could you remove that picture from your dA? Thanks. 16:55, October 3, 2012 (UTC)

Deleted it, once you become staff, it's okay to put it right? 01:08, October 4, 2012 (UTC)

That's a long way down the road, provided that I even had what it takes to be Staff, and a bit over-zealous if you ask me =P 01:12, October 4, 2012 (UTC)

PNG Signatures
Sorry to be bothering you again and again, but I have a doubt, I noticed that Vatsa and Arcmez have have PNG files in thier sigs, so my question is this: How should I do it? and Do I need to source it? 16:16, October 5, 2012 (UTC)

I think Vatsa would be able to help you better on that. Sorry, but I'm a bit ill at the moment, so I can't look into the code and figure it out for you. 16:19, October 5, 2012 (UTC)

Okay, thanks anyway. 16:20, October 5, 2012 (UTC)

"Chogan"
According to this  The Shadow is actually " The Silent Shadow"  and his real name is "Chogan"    So I tried to fix the pages but probably did it wrong...... And did not add a source (Don't know how to properly)   Could you perhaps...... fix it? Thanks 10:23, October 16, 2012 (UTC)

His birth name is Atasá:ta, and Kain & JD already fixed it. Sorry I couldn't get to it myself - my internet's been a bitch lately. 12:46, October 16, 2012 (UTC)

Hereby
You are now known as Leonidas.

Because SPARTAAAAA! /boot --Kainzorus Prime Walkie-talkie  01:01, October 24, 2012 (UTC)

I shall graciously accept this name, for there is much glory in it. FOR SPARTA!!! 02:02, October 24, 2012 (UTC)

So long
Bye for now. And have fun doing...whatever it is you plan on doing! 13:56, October 26, 2012 (UTC)

I think it has something to do with a festival that goes down this time of the year. Am I right? 17:51, October 26, 2012 (UTC)

Yes, I'm at the family villa, where the internet is beyond shit. Can't even load pages properly, so I'll only be doing a few minor edits at most - hence the absent template. 18:08, October 26, 2012 (UTC)

Thaaaanks.
Oh, thank you so much. I already told you, but ... THANKS. ; u ;

I really gotta get used to this site... maybe need your help again, hahah... /shot

~ Aphelion~ (talk) 16:06, November 2, 2012 (UTC)

Images
So I should've stated the source? I took the picture by myself. So the source shold be "Me, Assassin's Creed 3" ?

Papa Andy (talk) 17:58, November 2, 2012 (UTC)

Nope, the correct source would be Assassin's Creed III, with the author being Ubisoft. The license would be. Also, the image shouldn't be of low quality. We only accept HD PVR images (console) or high-res, high graphics screenshots (PC). 18:02, November 2, 2012 (UTC)


 * You're much nicer on Wiki. How non-HD are we talking here? 18:04, November 2, 2012 (UTC)
 * Ignore that... 18:06, November 2, 2012 (UTC)
 * Okay.. But I took the photo so I have the rights on it.. I've took a photo of Assassin's Creed 3. (I'm living in Austria) And basically, I wasted my time doing that? :| Papa Andy (talk) 18:09, November 2, 2012 (UTC)
 * No, you don't have the rights to it, because Ubisoft created the game, and published it. They allow anyone to freely use images from the game as long as it's properly attributed (e.g. you say Ubi has all rights and stuff, which our licensing templates take care of). And yes, you wasted your time, because as soon as the PC version is out, some of our long-time contributors will be getting more than enough screenshots and renders from the game. 18:13, November 2, 2012 (UTC)
 * The PC version comes out in 20 days. I couldn't wait to see how they look :P
 * In Austria the rights of the picture belong to me.Papa Andy (talk) 18:20, November 2, 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm aware the PC version comes out later, being a PC gamer myself. But as you've seen, our wiki does not allow low quality images. Using an HD PVR (capture card) for consoles - not Youtube or photographs, would be acceptable till we can up-res them with the PC screenshots. I'm afraid Austrian rights are irrelevant here, as the site is hosted on U.S. servers, and Ubisoft is a French company (with Ubisoft Montreal being Canadian). 18:24, November 2, 2012 (UTC)


 * Okay, thank you <3 Papa Andy (talk) 18:34, November 2, 2012 (UTC)

Poll
Hey, do you think you could manage the poll on Monday? I really need that time to study. If you can't, do you know of anybody else who could do this?

PS: If this showed up twice or something, blame this crappy PC. 17:53, November 3, 2012 (UTC)

No problemo. I'll get everything ready by tomorrow, and post it first thing on Monday. 18:59, November 3, 2012 (UTC)

And here I was stalking the page hoping I'd get to do it.....Oh well. *Puts on an irresistible face then leaves*   19:03, November 3, 2012 (UTC)

That revamp
We have go for Poll Submission revamp; feel free to do it at any time. 16:15, November 5, 2012 (UTC)

Finished. Now you have a page to leave old suggestions, and the original page has been revamped with a new look. 06:32, November 6, 2012 (UTC)


 * It looks so much more professional now...


 * Thanks. Or, danke. (I don't care if I spelt that wrong) 21:33, November 6, 2012 (UTC)

Assassin's Creed III
So what did YOU think of screed 3?

I kind of hate it. so much

Lol Jack, I don't have the game yet. I play on PC so I have to wait another week. Managed to avoid spoilers so far, even though I heard the game wasn't all it was hyped up to be. ;) 10:23, November 11, 2012 (UTC)

Weapon rack
I know how to lose my medium weapon, but how do I lose my short blade? :/ 15:35, November 16, 2012 (UTC)

Good jorb.
Good jorb with the database images. Except latest batch doesn't have transparent backgrounds. --Kainzorus Prime Walkie-talkie  17:53, December 6, 2012 (UTC)

Those were for Vatsa to take care of :P 17:58, December 6, 2012 (UTC)


 * /whipcrack


 * Nu! Bad Gabe! No lazy for you! --Kainzorus Prime Walkie-talkie  18:01, December 6, 2012 (UTC)


 * I also happen to be working on those damn almanac pages - all during my semester finals so I think my laziness here is justified. :P 18:08, December 6, 2012 (UTC)


 * why won't vatsa leave the rendered images up? 20:50, December 6, 2012 (UTC)


 * Braddock's image doesn't have eyes, and Haytham's is fugleeeh, and looks like it's missing half his head. I blame Shaun. 06:23, December 7, 2012 (UTC)

An offer you can't refuse
Since you are using my Ninja Smiley at your talkpage header, how about we call it even by me using this render of Corvo for my userpage? --War Clown (talk) 15:59, December 11, 2012 (UTC)

By all means War. :) 16:01, December 11, 2012 (UTC)
 * Danke. --War Clown (talk) 16:03, December 11, 2012 (UTC)

I'd just like to add; GREAT render you've uploaded, same goes for the other ones. Really great stuff. --War Clown (talk) 14:35, December 20, 2012 (UTC)

Thank you, I try my best :) 14:55, December 20, 2012 (UTC)

Cool Picture
Hey. Just wanted to say that I love your image SlateAvatarAC3.png. Shahkulu's mask looks great with the hood. :D  Magneto7 (talk) 05:46, December 15, 2012 (UTC)

Thank you, it's an avatar I designed for Slate, and I thought it looked badass too :) 08:20, December 15, 2012 (UTC)

Image request
Hey GI. Would you mind  this picture, so that Ezio doesn't have his beard, the white is black and the red is blue. If you can, thanks. If you can't thanks anyways. Hoodie! =D - How'D'Ya Feel? 12:32, December 19, 2012 (UTC)


 * There you go. 14:00, December 19, 2012 (UTC)

Just asking, why on Earth would you want to remove Ezio's beard? 13:48, December 21, 2012 (UTC)

Hey GI, could you give me the background of the avatar you made for Eagle? 01:34, December 24, 2012 (UTC)

It's a screenshot from the opening of AC3, the part where the Animus effects change from a circle to the Assassin insignia. I'm sure you can capture that image on your own - I'd rather not upload it to the Wiki if I can help it. Hope I've helped. 02:34, December 24, 2012 (UTC)

Okay, I'll have to get it from a youtube video. I don't have AC3 for PC. 02:37, December 24, 2012 (UTC)

Drop by the IRC, I'll PM it to you. 02:41, December 24, 2012 (UTC)

Question
Are you planning on doing front to back pictures of connor when he is 5 and 13?


 * I'm afraid I don't do those - I only adjusted the lighting on one of them. You're looking for Kain or Vatsa. 19:10, December 26, 2012 (UTC)

Avatar
Hi, Gabe. You said that you wanted me to tell you how I want my Avatar to look; I'll try my hardest to make a good list...

Hopefully this is enough detail:

- I would like it to be more like Dishonored than Assassin's Creed; to fit the username.

- Regarding the outfit, I would like Corvo's attire, but not his mask (if you can do that?). The template can be like any of the other assassin pictures, similar to Crimson.

- For the background, could you possibly make it the void, off Dishonored? That would be awesome!

- Finally, I would just like the Avatar to be dark & kinda mysterious; to fit the name, you know?

Sorry if this is a bit much. I'm very picky when it comes to my Avatar; maybe it's my OCD?

Thanks. Don't worry if it's too difficult, just do what you're comfortable with :)

Outsider (talk) 17:30, December 30, 2012 (UTC)

Captain Kidd's Sawtooth Cutlass
Why you removed my edit is a mystery, would very much like an explanation otherwise I can forsee no future edits or help towards this wikia, its the second time it has been removed.

SteelCrimson (talk) 01:23, January 4, 2013 (UTC)

As Storm has already told you, the Sawtooth sword has the same animations as any other sword, many other users have used the sword and found no difference, so unless you can show us a source for the different animations, we can't add that to the article. Originally, it was rumored to have different animations, but it did not do so in the game. 01:27, January 4, 2013 (UTC)

Avatar?
Hey GI. Yeah, I saw the avatar you did for Outsider. Can I ask you for one too? AssassinHood -  Leave me a message!  15:01, January 4, 2013 (UTC)

Sure, leave me a description and I'll work on it in my free time. :) 15:30, January 4, 2013 (UTC)

I don't hope it's too much, but: I love it! But could you remove the green sky and put Desmond a little bit more in the center? 89.253.73.51 13:55, January 6, 2013 (UTC)
 * Desmond (AC:B Appearance) with a black hoodie and if possible, hooded. Is it possible to take a picture from the back so you don't see his face?
 * For the background, a city with a dark purple tint to it.
 * Hope it's not too much. If it is, you don't have to do it. Thanks.  AssassinHood -  Leave me a message!  15:34, January 4, 2013 (UTC)

Perfect. Thanks, GI! AssassinHood -  Leave me a message!  17:29, January 6, 2013 (UTC)

Userbox
Hi G, it's my understanding that you're the go to guy for html coding, well, I am having difficulty in creating a userbox to use on my user page... so I'd like to request your services, if it's not too much trouble.

Just let me know if you'll be up to the task.

Thanks in advance.

 Supreme Master Assassin O Mentoras 02:56, January 6, 2013 (UTC)


 * Hey Supreme, GI is out right now. You're looking for help with this, am I correct? If you drop by the IRC, I could help you. Or through talk-page, doesn't really matter. Alternative would be wait for his return later today. 03:03, January 6, 2013 (UTC)


 * Thanks for taking this one Storm :) 06:54, January 6, 2013 (UTC)

Dem renders
Where'd you get those ACIII fullbody renders? --Kainzorus Prime Walkie-talkie  17:12, January 15, 2013 (UTC)
 * It says so in the source - Model rips from AC3. Sima reverted them for some reason though. 17:16, January 15, 2013 (UTC)
 * Did you rip them yourself? Because if you could get your hands on some sort of posing software, and touch the lighting up in photoshop, we could have really, really nice renders about. --Kainzorus Prime Walkie-talkie  03:31, January 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * I have the model files but I don't know the first thing about 3D modelling/posing. If anyone wants to take a crack at it, I can send them the files. Also, the actual model files are quite high res/detailed, so it'd look even better than the renders currently up if someone managed to do more than just screenshot them. EDIT: To add to that, most posing software have plenty of support for lighting adjustment, so that shouldn't be a problem at all. 08:30, January 17, 2013 (UTC)


 * I would have reverted them because they're too "gamey" for my tastes. As in, it draws away from the illusion that the character was actually real.
 * Whether Sima reverted them for a similar reason, I don't know.
 * But that's how I see it. 17:25, January 15, 2013 (UTC)

Render suggestions
Hi Gabriel,

I have a few suggestions for renders to the characters page:


 * Garnier de Naplouse - the art book for assassin's creed I has the full body picture of the priest (same used for Garnier)
 * William of Monteferrat - is also on the art book - full body - it's one of the crusader soldiers there
 * Osman - also on the art book - full body
 * Fajera, Badr - there's on the internet pictures of the concept art - full body
 * other characters from altair's chronicles are also available: axe warrior, basilisk (this in black and white)
 * Americo Vespucci and Francesco Vecellio: they have specific cards on the recollection card game
 * Ece Ashkar: In his missions on the recollection card game, there's a picture of him
 * Sergei - from The chain - has a full body picture on the comic
 * Azize and Tazim Al-Sayf - there's screen images of them in the game, here in the wiki.

Hope this is a help to you 85.138.180.189 18:37, January 30, 2013 (UTC)

Thank you very much for these, I will look into them for you as soon as possible. :) As for the Altaïr's Chronicles characters, links would be helpful, but I can search for them if you're unable to provide them. 20:59, January 30, 2013 (UTC)

Hi again Gabriel:

Here are the links for the renders of Altair's chronicles:

Fajera and Badr:

http://www.tumblr.com/tagged/assassin's%20creed%20altair's%20chronicles

Some others (not sure if they're usable): (click on the Badr image)

http://www.pandemoniumart.net/2008/02/07/assassins-creed-ds-concept-art/

For Roland Napule (it's from this wiki):

http://assassinscreed.wikia.com/wiki/File:Ac-priest.jpg

Very nice job on the renders. Thank you for doing them. If it interests you, there's also a nice full body picture of Jonathan Hawk on the latest french comic.109.48.2.61 19:24, January 31, 2013 (UTC)

I've gone through them all and unfortunately, we can't use a few of them. Francesco Vecellio's Recollection card is just a recolor of Il Lupo, the outfits on some AC1 Artbook characters don't match with the character in question, i.e. Roland Napule wears a black djellaba in-game. Finally, the image of Ece Ashkar doesn't explicitly label him by name, so we don't have any way of knowing it's him; and the same goes for Tazim and Azize, they are not named in the game, and could be any one of the Assassins in the group. On the other hand, that ACAC concept art is very helpful, and I will get to work on them right away. Thanks again for all the links, I appreciate it. :) 02:35, February 1, 2013 (UTC)

Hi Gabriel,

I agree with you some of the renders are not exactly the same. But did you have a chance to check out Osman and William of Montferrat on the Art book. At least to me these seem pretty accurate.

83.132.200.236 18:36, February 1, 2013 (UTC)

Hi again Gabriel,

Have some more ideas for renders:

You know that picture of the Abstergo employees on the Abstergo page of this wiki?

Well, in the last page of the Official Game Guide to the first game, they tell who is who in that picture.

Sorry don't have it here to tell you exactly, but if you have it, you can check it out.

Another one (not sure if usable):

http://aveline-creed.dreamwidth.org/tag/media:+concept+art

For Élise Lafleur (it's concept art for Liberation)

Your work with the renders is great. Please keep it up

85.138.180.189 16:18, February 3, 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for the links and the compliments. I've noted the Abstergo employees and will work on the renders as soon as possible along with Élise's. 17:10, February 3, 2013 (UTC)

Hi again Gabriel,

You are trully the Master of Renders.

I have been checking the books and have these suggestions:

Enclyclopedia 2nd edition:

Benjamin Franklin (page 295 or page 47 of the art book or the database render)

Lafayette (page 294 or the photo on this wiki is really nice to render (except for the feet))

Thomas Jefferson and Alexander Hamilton (page 290)

Witch doctor from Liberation (page 154)

William of Monteferrat (page 68 - this was the one I told you earlier but mistook its location with the art book)

There's also Amanda Bailey from the database of AC III

Finally I leave you 2 links (not usable - they are fan made but are great renders just to keep):

http://ecezio.deviantart.com/art/Flavia-Auditore-2-283191791

link

If you have difficulties with this last one just put "andrea doria" "assassin's creed" on google images - the direct link to the site doesn't give access to the image.

Well run out of ideas. If I have some more one of these days I'll send you another message

Alas, I do not have the Encyclopedia V2, I've heard there's a good Aquilus render there as well. If anyone sends me scans of the images, I could render them. I think I already rendered Bailey, but I'll double check when I have time. Thanks for the fanart, I do love what the community does :) 01:15, February 7, 2013 (UTC)

Hi Gabriel,

I can try to send you the pages of the encyclopedia that have the renders, but my scanner is very weak and they probably won't be very usable. Maybe someone else can help with that?

If you still want me to try and send them to you, is JPEG ok?

And where do I send them? Please let me know.

85.138.180.189 19:19, February 7, 2013 (UTC)

I'd suggest this, but it's restricted to registered users only, so links to the files on any image hosting site would do. Also, PNG is preferable if possible, and the higher resolution, the better - but I think I can make JPEGs work if they're clear enough. And if you could, the image of Jonathan Hawk from AC Tome 4 would be good too. I appreciate what you're doing, thanks a lot. :) 07:13, February 8, 2013 (UTC)

Hi Gabriel,

Working on the scans from the encyclopedia. Then maybe I'll create a facebook page to put them and you can retrieve them there. Alright by you?

In the meantime, my head is always working with ideas, and I've checking the project legacy paintings. There are, I think, some usable stuff (full bodies: Pythagoras, Aleister Crowley, Aphrodite, Atalanta, and others not full body). Check them if you thing they are interesting. Another idea is the paintings and images of historical figures, some are real good to render like Napoleon, Joan of Arc, Cleopatra, Qin Shi Huang, etc.

Anyway I'm trying to get the scans ready this weekend. If I can't finish, you'll have to wait a bit longer, because I don't have the time during the week

85.138.180.189 09:02, February 9, 2013 (UTC)

That should work. As for the historical figures, I doubt whether they need to be rendered, since they aren't concept art or 3D images from the games, but rather real world stuff. I'll check out the PL stuff when I have some free time again, kinda busy throughout the week :/ 17:47, February 9, 2013 (UTC)

Hi Gabriel,

Already uploaded the pictures to a facebook page.

Sorry for the lack of quality, but it's the best I can do. Hope you can use them.

Don't worry about the quality, the images are clear, and that's what counts. I can manage the rest with Photoshop. Thanks a lot, I really appreciate this. 10:53, February 10, 2013 (UTC)

Question
Sorry to pester you once again, but is it possible for you to take the background from here, or find a similar one? Because I'd like that as a new background for a possible future avatar. With background I mean the black with some neon blue effects. Kooala Cupcake. -  Leave me a message!  11:29, February 3, 2013 (UTC)

Shouldn't be too difficult, I'll look into it within the next couple of days - kinda busy at the moment. 17:10, February 3, 2013 (UTC)

Messed around in Photoshop for a bit and came up with a couple of things. Would something like this do? I can adjust light intensity, colors, etc and all. 18:41, February 3, 2013 (UTC)

Ooh! Nice. But could you make the blue well, horisontally (or however you spell that) and a bit brighter? Kooala Cupcake. -  Leave me a message!  19:46, February 3, 2013 (UTC)

Brighter shouldn't be a problem, but I didn't quite understand the first part of your question. 15:36, February 6, 2013 (UTC)

In a line. Well, two lines. Uh, how should I explain it?

Kooala Cupcake. -  Leave me a message!  16:03, February 6, 2013 (UTC)

I'm afraid I still don't follow, but I have a vague idea of what you mean and will try to show you an image sample by tomorrow. 01:15, February 7, 2013 (UTC)

Sorry about the delay, I've been swamped with a load of real life, I'll try to get back to you on this within the week. 17:47, February 9, 2013 (UTC)

Gabe? Kooala Cupcake. -  Leave me a message!  13:57, February 24, 2013 (UTC)

A thousand pardons. (Yes - Haytham.) Is this what you were hoping for? I should be on more often now by the way. 15:31, February 25, 2013 (UTC)

Yes! For the blue, could you make it more brighter, like neon blue? Kooala Cupcake. -  Leave me a message!  17:18, February 25, 2013 (UTC)

There you go, good sir. Thank you for your patience. :) 17:27, February 25, 2013 (UTC)

If you've got a sec, I have some things I wanted to talk about on the IRC. -- NOSTALGIA TALK 22:31, February 6, 2013 (UTC)

Err, sorry Nos, but I'm heading out to school now and will be busy for the majority of the day. Unless it can wait a day, I'd advise talkpaging it. 01:15, February 7, 2013 (UTC)

Hey sorry I didn't get back to you earlier, but the matter's all settled. Nice work with the Villa Auditore FA revamp too. -- NOSTALGIA TALK 05:24, February 9, 2013 (UTC)

Apprenticeship
Hi GI :D let s set sail on the never ending adventure of my incompetent leadership and poor directions XD Just drop me a message on the times that are best to meet you on the IRC and I will do my best to be there :) we can discuss past, present and future stuff. There is no rush, we will move at whatever pace you feel comfortable with. :) 00:51, February 11, 2013 (UTC)

Aye aye, Cap'n! From your timezone, I will not be on from 9pm to 9am most days - sleep, school and stuff. Asides from that, if you talkpage me if I'm not on, I could hop in within half an hour. As for the apprenticeship itself, I'd love it if you went through tasks 6-8 on the Pigeon Coop, they haven't been reviewed yet. :) 12:40, February 11, 2013 (UTC)

Sory for the slow reply, my notifications are off for some reason :/ I'll review them tonight and get back to you once I am done. :) 22:41, February 11, 2013 (UTC)

Update coming over the weekend GI :D sorry for the slow process, but since I'm new to the mentor role I'm asking more experienced mentors to review my ability to review XD but don't worry, your work is epic and there is no need to worry. We should discuss possible future assignments when you have the time. :) 23:17, February 15, 2013 (UTC)

No problem Kal, pardon the lack of activity on my end, it's been a hectic week at home. Things should settle back to normal in a few days. 01:51, February 16, 2013 (UTC)

Hi GI, just dropping by to ask a question. What rank are you at now in the apprentice initiative? Also, I see you have seven assignments uncommented on by a mentor which I am wonder if they were given the proverbial thumbs up for or not? If not then you should be ranked for those too as they are superb as well. I have reread all your material and it is excellent as others agree but I can't seem to figure out your rank (more my fault than anything else). 21:03, February 26, 2013 (UTC)

I'm currently Rank 4, and the uncommented ones weren't reviewed. The [progress log has the comments on the tasks that were reviewed by the way. 08:34, February 27, 2013 (UTC)

Hi Gabriel,

Very nice job with Aquilus. It's really impressive.

how about this one for Accipiter:

http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/717/accipiterscreen3.png/

Hi Gabriel,

Been thinking, instead of sending you the links of images. I'm going to put them on that facebook page.

I call it the "Forgotten Renders" page. I think most of them could give excellent renders, although some lack the desirable quality. Anyway, hope they help to improve the characters page with no renders or substitute them for better ones.

I will mostly post on weekends, so stop by every once and a while, maybe there's some stuff you want to use.

Hello GA,

So iv done a drawing of an assassins creed character, and I want to upload it to the wiki...how do I put it under a category/make a new topic about it? The Forgotten Fragment (talk) 22:06, February 13, 2013 (UTC)

Hello Forgotten, I prefer GI, but that's not important. To upload it to the wiki, you go to the upload page and fill in the licensing as follows:

Then, you follow the instructions on the fanart page and add it in. Let me know if you need any help. :) 09:55, February 14, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks GI :) Ill see if I can manage uploading it! Thanks!

btw, how did you make such a cool signature :O Lost Fragment (talk) 01:39, February 15, 2013 (UTC)

I wrote a blog about how it's done a while back, feel free to give it a read :) 05:32, February 15, 2013 (UTC)

Hey GI...for some reason i seem to be incompitant with making a signature...i have no idea what im doing wrong :( any help?Lost Fragment (talk) 03:59, February 24, 2013 (UTC)

Are you doing everything in source mode? Visual editor is a no-go for most cases that involve coding. It should help if you read through the whole blog slowly, trying to understand the steps instead of copying the code. 06:34, February 26, 2013 (UTC)

Armor of Altaïr
http://assassinscreed.wikia.com/wiki/Armor_of_Alta%C3%AFr

Hello,Assassin

I don't see evidence that Ezio attained 6 seals later than 1486 myself,as in gameplay,the Assassin Tomb in Santa Marco is accessable around the time of the Flying Machine event.And this implicated that Ezio would probably acquire all 6 Seals within 1480s!

Another one.I think,Ezio had enough time during the whole 1500s to recover the Armor of Altair after the time of the siege on the villa.In the game story,we can go through several events that Ezio travelled to some regions outside Rome,like Campagna and those places of War Machines.

Happy to see your picking on my opinion.Sleeplust (talk) 15:29, March 4, 2013 (UTC)

/yoink

It's called Assassin's Creed II: Discovery. It occurs canonically and chronologically between Battle of Forli and Bonfire of the Vanities, and Ezio does not sport the armor there. He would not use an inferior one if he had Al's already at that point, would he? --<font color="#7575DB" face="OCR A" size="3">Kainzorus Prime <font color="#4C99A6">Walkie-talkie  15:54, March 4, 2013 (UTC)

Apart from what Kain's stated above, in no point in the novelization or the game version of Brotherhood does Ezio recover the Armor, so it's inferred from that and the fact that Desmond says he looks a lot older, that he recovered it some time after Cesare's death. 15:55, March 4, 2013 (UTC)

Not so persuasive.

As I know,in Discovery,there is not any upgrade on Ezio's single hidden blade,like poison or a hidden gun.It is merely a hidden blade.In that game,Ezio did use an inferior weapon,at least.While in the ACII,Santa Marco tomb is accessable in 1486.Before the first time going through Battle of Forli in a session of savegames,It is quite possible and natural for us to upgrade Ezio with that set of armor.

I think ACII is much more of reference value.

Additionally,in ACR,again,Ezio ignored his superior equipment,the Brutus Armor.As a master assassin,mentor,with his identical talent,he was skilled enough to overcome obstacles in his story,wasn't he.

About the time that Ezio recover his superior armor,no other words thought of.

Not familiar with the comment system of the site.Wish that you and Prime can read this.

Too late in my country,bye!

While it is indeed possible, that does not make it canon. All we know is that Ezio wore the Armor from some time after the events of Discovery and up to the Siege of Monteriggioni. Not our place to add speculation to articles. 16:39, March 4, 2013 (UTC)

It's hard to find everything,every detail canon.It is acceptable to both of us that the armor could be acquired before 1491,as you said it "possible" above.

It's not our place to add any speculation onto the story.But considering that armor owned and must be acquired before or after one point of the timeline may also be a speculation.

As I pointed,Ezio could own all the equipment in the story without using or equiping them,no matter they are superior or inferior.But we can really find that the 6 seals can be reached at an exact point or period of years.Yeah,I just guessed for the precision and I cannot get a single year to be the answer for it is not displayed in neither ACII or Discovery,not "canon".And if all "speculation" above is "possible",the number 1491 is not strict enough,too.Or we can say that number it's a speculation,too.

So I head through the grapevine that you might be able to help me out with makeing a personal avatar? If not all good-- Fragment -Animus- 03:26, March 7, 2013 (UTC)

Yeah, I could help out, just leave a description below. :) 05:05, March 7, 2013 (UTC)

Aight will do, I apologize if its a bit complicated I'm not to sure about the extent of your skills...but if you can do it I would be very greatful :) -- Fragment -Animus- 12:17, March 7, 2013 (UTC)

So I was thinking having that, only with a dark mask on (like the option for your assassins in revelations) with only the eyes showing. Then for the eyes have them the animus loading screen texture, with the rest of the face black. For the hidden blade have it the texture of the apple of eden, then in the other hand have a sword with the same texture. Finally, change up the colors of the clothes to a grey color like Ezio's traveling clothes in ACR, and then have the background the regular animus screen.

Not sure if its possible, but that was my idea :)-- Fragment -Animus- 22:07, March 7, 2013 (UTC)

I remember you having extracted images from the AC3 database some time ago. Would you be able to extract/obtain ALL images from the AC3 database so we can put them on the Database articles? -- 18:41, March 9, 2013 (UTC)

Should be possible. However, I'm going to have to replay AC3 from the beginning, so it may take some time. I'll upload them as I play through. 18:51, March 9, 2013 (UTC)
