Talk:Jump Boost

It should be mentioned for the characters and different D-pad configurations for what they do when they perform a trick. For instance, in Mario Kart Wii the majority who use karts perform a handstand (Up) except for some drivers, while the majority who use bikes perform a straddle (Up) except for some, etc. --PrincessDaisyFanatic3883 (talk) 03:44, 23 December 2013 (EST)

Why???
Why would there be a bunch of pics that don't exist???
 * It's for the ease of uploading. 19:00, 16 June 2014 (EDT)
 * I did it for a good reason: it's to make the uploading process easier. When you click on the red link, it takes you directly to the file uploading page, where it also automatically puts the file name for you. 19:00, 16 June 2014 (EDT)

Mario Kart DS?
Where was there a North American Mario Kart DS commercial showing a cutscene of Mario performing a ramp trick? Please cite your sources, otherwise it's misleading. --PrincessDaisyFanatic3883 (talk) 01:16, 30 January 2015 (EST)

Peach has an unique glider trick for in-drift bikes too
Just decided to inform that like Larry, Peach's bike glider trick is also different when using in-drift. In her case, she uses her right hand to blow a kiss instead of the left hand. Those seem to be the only two characters with this distinction. SmokedChili (Talk) (Thoughts) 15:33, 19 May 2015 (EDT)
 * Thanks. Perhaps you can tell MSnG about it, he's the one uploading all the higher quality pics 16:00, 19 May 2015 (EDT)

Revamp the pix on this page
So! I've seen the MK8 section of this page, and a lot of the pix are either:
 * 1) Dark (fig. 1)
 * 2) Angled (fig. 2)
 * 3) Distracting (fig. 3)
 * 4) or Low-res (fig. 4)

I'm saying we dump the low quality pix and replace them with higher quality ones. Also, about 35% of the MKW pix are missing, which needs to be fixed.

Support

 * 1) My proposal

Comments
We don't need a proposal to tell us to make the wiki better. If anyone had higher-quality images, either they would have already uploaded images or they simply weren't aware that the images needed to be updated, in which case a thread in the forums would have sufficed. You can't really force the images to be hq if there are no images in hq.
 * Yeah, per Time Turner: this TPP is unnecessary and should be deleted. - 15:50, 18 September 2015 (EDT)
 * Per. 16:25, 18 September 2015 (EDT)
 * Yeah, you're right RoyNSMBU.png Roy Koopa 16:50, 18 September 2015 (EDT)
 * Just one thing I would like to point out: the low-res image is actually a 400 x 400 pixels crop. Since the rendering (and screenshot when you use the Wii U Home button to take one) resolution is 1280 x 720 pixels, I wouldn't call the image "low-res".--Mister Wu (talk) 18:05, 18 September 2015 (EDT)
 * Yeah, they're not that low-res. It's the .jpg compression, cropping, and lighting that makes it appear low-res. 18:08, 18 September 2015 (EDT)

BTW, 35% of MKW images being missing is me being too lazy to play MKW on an emulator + at that time, the computer that ran the emulator was basically slide-show sluggish, so I couldn't be arsed to finish it. At least MKW animation files ARE readable though, so we could theoretically get vanilla images of characters in midst of their trick animation there. 19:12, 18 September 2015 (EDT)
 * So if it can be an ongoing project without a proposal, I can delete it? RoyNSMBU.png Roy Koopa 08:12, 19 September 2015 (EDT)
 * Sure, you can. 22:26, 19 September 2015 (EDT)
 * If y'all want to help out, that would be appreciated. I have too many projects in my hat already. 23:46, 19 September 2015 (EDT)
