== Updating the amiibo card template ==
 
In amiibo Festival's Desert Island Escape, every villager has a favourite fruit and special ability, I just thought it might be a good idea if we update the amiibo card template to include this and other information I may have forgotten to mention - [[User:ZCJigglypuff|ZCJigglypuff]]
 
  
:Agreed. I may get around to editing it sometime this month. (Hopefully!) Thanks for the suggestion. :) [[File:Sunmarshsignature.png|link=User:Sunmarsh]] '''<small><span style="font-variant:small-caps">([[User_talk:Sunmarsh|<span style="color:#7B7B7B">talk</span>]])</span></small>''' 20:32, January 12, 2016 (EST)

== Animal Crossing furniture showrooms ==
  
== Hey there! ==
+
I was looking at your [[:Category:Animal Crossing furniture showroom screenshots|furniture series showrooms for {{PG|nolink}}]], and I was wondering, how did you remove the player character? Did you take 2 screenshots and stitch them together, or did you use some sort of game modification in order to remove the player character or maybe move the camera? I'm curious because I've been taking a few screenshots myself and I might want to potentially use that technique. [[User:HylianAngel|HylianAngel]] ([[User talk:HylianAngel|talk]]) 22:30, September 30, 2022 (EDT)

: My apologies for the abysmally slow reply, but I achieved that by taking two screenshots, each with my character in a different space in the room, but without the camera moving. If you have an editing program with layers, you would just line the images up exactly, in separate layers one on top of the other, then delete the character from the top layer and the room will now appear empty.

::Thank you for explaining! I'm not totally against splicing, since the image results are great. My only fear is that it introduces some complications with always obtaining the same room angle, and also it introduces room for human error compared to just a normal screenshot. For example, one splicing job I noticed by another person mistakenly left a piece of the HUD with the faded camera notification in the lower-right, and one splicing job I did myself I didn't notice had a minor alignment error until like a year later. If I do end up using that method, I'll just have to take more care when doing the actual splicing. Anyways, thanks again!

Hey! Welcome back! I missed you! I was wondering when you'll be active again. Activity has certainly died a bit for me, however, but I still check here from time to time. I hope the the newer Animal Crossing games do get datamined as I've been checking for information on at least Happy Home Designer. I think, actually, our furniture images should use Happy Home Designer's sprites, and I've experimented with [[Patchwork items]], but I appreciate more feedback. Thanks! {{User:Mario/Sig}} 22:18, January 13, 2016 (EST)
 
 
 
:Glad you're still around! I checked the Patchwork items and I agree that the HHD sprites look great in the item lists and I would be in support of using them in place of the ACNL items (those come from the online Prima guide, right?). I still think that we should keep the ACNL images (if we have them uploaded) and move them to a gallery section at the bottom, because while the HHD sprites look nice, they aren't 100% accurate representations of what the item looks like in game. They are a bit stylized. I've checked and I *think* all of the sprites have been ripped, I've counted 1,734 furniture sprites in HHD... not sure if that's all the furniture in ACNL though? The main series/themes are there though and those matter the most. [[File:Sunmarshsignature.png|link=User:Sunmarsh]] '''<small><span style="font-variant:small-caps">([[User_talk:Sunmarsh|<span style="color:#7B7B7B">talk</span>]])</span></small>''' 18:06, February 11, 2016 (EST)
 
 
 
::The ''New Leaf'' items are indeed from Prima, and I think Prima has everything. I'm also not sure if that's all the furniture items, but HHD does have the DLC stuff so chances are it has everything. While the sprites are stylized, they still give an accurate impression of what the furniture item looks like, not to mention that they at a consistent width and height unlike the Prima ones, and since they're transparent, they're more versatile, so I'd go for replacing them in general. I also agree moving Prima ones to a gallery just because, well, it doesn't hurt. {{User:Mario/Sig}} 00:51, February 14, 2016 (EST)
 
 
 
:::I've uploaded all the images for the furniture series so far, and I see you've already replaced the images in at least one article- thanks for that! I will eventually go back and insert the images appropriately, but for now I'm focusing on editing and uploading them. If you ever have any time the images to the articles your help would be greatly appreciated.

::::Fantastic! Now to go in and add those images... that's gonna take a while. Any items in HHD that is absent? I mean, the game doesn't include them for whatever reason? {{User:Mario/Sig}} 22:22, March 1, 2016 (EST)
 
== Images ==
 
 
 
Please don't upload too many images at once, as this floods the recent changes page and clogs up what the admins have to patrol. Thanks.

:It's poor courtesy to tell an administrator what to do, MLAATR-Girl22. If sunmarsh had been concerned about flooding the recent changes, I'm sure the directors would not have minded giving him temporary "bot" permissions. Also, sunmarsh's edits are automatically patrolled since he is an administrator.

:I do appreciate everyone's concern, and as others have already mentioned, as an administrator I'm well aware of what I'm doing, thanks. The images will be used on item pages in place of the ACNL images which will be moved to the gallery section of the page.

== City Folk bugs page ==
 
 
 
Hi, I hope you enjoyed your break. Could you please take a look at [[Bugs/Animal Crossing: City Folk]] for me? I just completed the page, but the template needs a few corrections (the red links at the top, and also the 'Locations' parameter has pale text which is barely readable). Thanks!

::Alright, I've made the necessary changes. The Locations column had gray text because it used to be the Months column, which needs that text color because the months are abbreviated by their first letter and those in which the bug appears are highlighted green and the rest are left gray. The gray is automatically applied to that column, but the highlighting needs to be done by hand. I edited the page to correct that. The reason the links don't work is because the gamelink parameter is currently coded to only work properly with ACNL tables. Once I recode it to work with other games I will restore it on that page.

== Revive Project Museum? ==
 
 
 
With me and you doing a lot of editing on fish and bug pages recently, I wonder if now may be the time to consider reviving [[Nookipedia:Project Museum|Project Museum/FishBuggyPedia]] (which has been dead since 2013)? There's still a lot of work to be done in this area, especially on bug articles. Barren sections need info adding to them, fish lists need to be completed, and of course there's the revamps of the [[Fish]] and [[Bug]] pages that you're carrying out. It's only a suggestion, but if you're interested, one or both of us could consider starting the project back up again. Thanks for your time!

:I agree that the pages need to be revisited- some of them don't even have images on them. I don't think I have the time to devote to spearheading another project myself, but if you'd like to start it I'll help you in whatever ways I can.

== Template Help ==
 
Hey Sunmarsh! I've been attempting to make a villager template for {{ACAF}}, in particular, the [[Desert Island Escape]] mode, as it is the only mode that has attributes for each character that isn't already shown on each characters amiibo card. ( For example in "amiibo Card Battle", while each character has attributes, these attributes are already on the cards [dice value and star-sign]). Unfortunately, template making isn't really something I know how to do, so I thought I'd ask if you would be able to do the job. What I've done is in my sandbox. It doesn't look too amazing, and there needs to be room for when we can find good quality sprites of the attributes icons from the game, but hopefully it is enough for you to understand what needs to be in it. Thanks a bunch! :D [[User:ZCJigglypuff|<span style="color:#F781F3;">ZCJigglypuff</span>]]([[User talk:ZCJigglypuff|Talk]]) 07:34, August 15, 2016 (EDT)
 
: Hey there {{User|ZCJigglypuff}}, I know you've mentioned this before and I apologize for not working on it until now. As I may have mentioned before, I think information for Desert Island Escape is best placed on that game's page, rather than added as an additional template tagged onto each villager's article page. For that reason, I've created a table on the [[Desert Island Escape]] page where this information can be documented. If you have any questions about the table, or suggestions for improvement, let me know. Information for the first 100 AC amiibo cards (+ a guide to Desert Island Escape) can be found [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1bQQ9UcrpNHq8rg5hxxonoFgFP4a63O5v9cnx-FmYxvk/edit?usp=sharing here].
 
:: Wow, the table looks really good! I think everything looks really nice and it perfectly demonstrates everything. The only thing I think could be added is a spot on the table for each villagers icon from the game ( Like the Gabi icon from my Sandbox) I'll upload the ones I got of Goldie, Rosie, Stitches and Eugene as soon as I get home, so you can see if you think they would fit into the table well or not .

Sorry about all this! I do think the editor-in-chief role is a great idea, and I did understand what you wrote in your nomination. The only reason that I made the comment that I did is because the staff applications page has (so far) solely been used for patroller, admin and 'crat applications. Discussion about creating a new position might be better suited to Discord or the Community Fountain, but eh, someone else might disagree!

Animal Crossing furniture showrooms[edit]

I was looking at your furniture series showrooms for Animal Crossing, and I was wondering, how did you remove the player character? Did you take 2 screenshots and stitch them together, or did you use some sort of game modification in order to remove the player character or maybe move the camera? I'm curious because I've been taking a few screenshots myself and I might want to potentially use that technique. HylianAngel (talk) 22:30, September 30, 2022 (EDT)

My apologies for the abysmally slow reply, but I achieved that by taking two screenshots, each with my character in a different space in the room, but without the camera moving. If you have an editing program with layers, you would just line the images up exactly, in separate layers one on top of the other, then delete the character from the top layer and the room will now appear empty. Sunmarshsignature.png (talk) 12:34, February 16, 2023 (EST)
Thank you for explaining! I'm not totally against splicing, since the image results are great. My only fear is that it introduces some complications with always obtaining the same room angle, and also it introduces room for human error compared to just a normal screenshot. For example, one splicing job I noticed by another person mistakenly left a piece of the HUD with the faded camera notification in the lower-right, and one splicing job I did myself I didn't notice had a minor alignment error until like a year later. If I do end up using that method, I'll just have to take more care when doing the actual splicing. Anyways, thanks again! HylianAngel (talk) 15:26, February 16, 2023 (EST)
