User talk:Mario/Archive 9

 '''Status: Very active and getting good grades. What the hell is my sister doing? She just wasted two whole school semesters now. -_- (Last updated:17:17, 23 November 2015 (EST))'''

My mom gave me a five, she told me to stay alive, but I didn't stay alive. Instead I became this Mario, Bazooka zooka Mario!


 * Welcome with bibbangs! You can talk to me if you want. I'll usually reply, unless it's an extremely immature treasure chest of spam, profanity, and some wandalism mixed in. In that case, no one'll help u if sad.
 * If you're referring me to other users (such as in proposals), I'd rather be called "LeftyGreenMario/LGM" (my former name), "Mario", or "Bazooka Mario". Try to refrain from "BM" since it sounds awfully like "Baby Mario", and a gun-wielding freak like me would rather not be compared to a dumb baby.
 * I will not accept random users as friends. If you want to make friends with me, you have to actually talk to me. And don't forget to be polite.
 * Don't add the on my talk page unless you're going to talk to me as well. Adding the template is similar to correcting grammar from a user five months ago; it's a false alarm whenever the notification shows up.
 * And yes, corn is grass. It will also make you want to create fancy headdresses.

MW:Image Maps
Since your proposal passed, I updated Image Maps accordingly (with proper accreditation). But I've held off on scrapping any of the unnecessary Image Maps (,, , , , and ) in case you wanna orphan them yourself before marking them for deletion: your proposal, your first dibs on any of the maintenance work. I'm good either way (and won't have much time to edit after this weekend anyway). - 10:34, 19 September 2015 (EDT)

Replying on your page so that Corrin doesn't get flooded with messages
Sorry, I don't issue reminders on a regular basis, so I didn't know that. But I did check the edit count, and his userspace edits way outnumber his mainspace edits, which I thought was reminder-worthy. My bad Roy Koopa 12:07, 25 September 2015 (EDT)
 * No, no, it's fine. I'm just hoping Corrin doesn't get too worked up about this. I think other users would've done the same thing, but I'd personally just wait a bit until Corrin becomes accustomed. I was lucky not to have received one in my very early wiki days, after all. 12:13, 25 September 2015 (EDT)

wow
I got your gift, and I decided I should give you something in return, so here:

Some idiot took the "Mario" name
So if you want to be called "Mario" again, you're outta luck 02:39, 26 September 2015 (EDT)
 * Well, uh, all those redirects using are going to be sooooo f*cked up now.  04:07, 26 September 2015 (EDT)
 * I deleted the redirect from his talk page to yours, but that's all that can be done, I think. 07:13, 26 September 2015 (EDT)
 * That's not good. Links related to my votes and comments will redirect to this user's page rather than mine (like this one). Even if editing those links are a good idea, people have referred to me as "Mario" in the past, so it's going to be just confusing. 13:20, 26 September 2015 (EDT)
 * It looks like the issue has been settled. The user has been blocked. I can breathe now. 21:30, 26 September 2015 (EDT)
 * Hahahaha you're an idiot 21:32, 26 September 2015 (EDT)

You totes ruined my bootiful writing!!!!!
For that, you get an official Wario of the day.

If you accumulate 5 official Warios of the day, your Wario will be Luigi'd from editing for a Donkey Kong's tie amount of days. If you delete your official Wario of the day, you will get another one, plus an unofficial Wario of the week. Also, black holes are deliciously awesome if you refrigerate the allegro in their brutal desire to execute extremely lame oranges of the Manatee Nebula.

 * I suck at writing [[File:VBWLBombWarioSprite.png]] Well maybe not THAT bad. [[File:WLIIBubbleWarioSprite.png]]. It's good that another person proofreads since I can't catch them. Wario MarioFamily.png 16:25, 28 September 2015 (EDT)

Warning
I told you a large amount of times that Luigi does NOT drive the Standard Kart. He drives the Mach 8. If you say he drives the Standard Kart instead of the Mach 8, you might end up getting blocked. I will leave the Kart page alone.
 * I'm done being nice and polite with you. Sure, a block will take place around here and I will gladly help you. 17:58, 29 September 2015 (EDT)

I will not block you. Your warning has been expired.
 * Stop acting like you can block me. You can't even if you tried. Also, you cannot remove warnings just as you can't remove comments. Use this time to reflect on what you've done and maybe you'll take more thought into your actions. 19:15, 29 September 2015 (EDT)


 * Reverting undeniably bad edits repeatedly isn't edit warring, it's quality control, especially when you do try to talk to the other editor. Even if you didn't formally appeal this, we would have taken it down. - 18:26, 29 September 2015 (EDT)
 * Ah, okay. I almost resorted to just contacting you to remove the warning, but I took the safer route by appealing it. 19:15, 29 September 2015 (EDT)

Duh
You should contact Steve to integrate the 3Drender template into the upload category thing. 15:10, 5 October 2015 (EDT)
 * Also, Help:License need updating. Just go to that Requests for Locked Edits thread. 15:20, 5 October 2015 (EDT)
 * Will this be a trick so you can backstab me and give me a warning? 15:28, 5 October 2015 (EDT)
 * Cockatiels hate you. 15:30, 5 October 2015 (EDT)
 * I can barely read the text in your avatar in the Marioboards (especially the top letters). You might need to make a better one. 15:54, 5 October 2015 (EDT)
 * I'm a bit of a sniper myself. 22:35, 5 October 2015 (EDT)

Stopping by, again.
Heyo! It's been, what, 2 or 3 years since I joined here? I can't even remember xD How've you been?

I just can't believe its been that long. It feels like it was only yesterday I joined here ;-; 17:12, 9 October 2015 (EDT)

Format Signature Properly?
I'm slightly confused. First of all, I fixed my sig so it is formatted, unless you want me to write it all out. I do it with 4 of ~, which a lot of people do. Can you tell me what you mean please? PowerKamek(Talk)(Contribs) 16:52, 19 October 2015 (EDT)


 * Alright, I see what you mean. Thanks!

Re: Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash
I'm aware of citations, but I was on a cell phone, I'm not used to edit on one. Placing ref tags are harder on a small screen. Yet, the characters were nonetheless confirmed.

hey fyi
if the wiki has a ruby characters template, it should probably be used for those flavor texts since thats what the original cards do.  14:12, 7 November 2015 (EST)


 * like, a template that lets you print tiny hiragana above the kanji, the way it is on the card. you can see it on wikipedia here. i don't know if this wiki has one or not, since im several years out of the loop 14:19, 7 November 2015 (EST)


 * actually, looking at the code of that page it seems like its not a template at all, but just a html thing: 東京(とうきょう) . i kind of feel like it should be a template if it's going to be used on this wiki, though, just so it looks cleaner in the code 14:25, 7 November 2015 (EST)


 * ok, well, it sounds like this is the kind of thing you'll have to discuss so don't let me hold you up haha. i just wanted to make sure that if a template like that was already in use you knew to use it for these 14:36, 7 November 2015 (EST)

Do you like any series besides Mario? Marioguy (talk) 17:57, 1 December 2015 (EST)

Hello!
I was just wondering how you created, as it seems very clear and high-quality, and I would like to know how it was made. Thanks! 16:36, 23 November 2015 (EST)
 * woah :o I usually take my models from the Mario Kart 8 section, as it has every character I would need, all pre-rigged and textured. I've used the 3D World model before, but that was when I had no idea what to do. I tried to do what you said with the model, and I came up with something that looked okay. I'll show you the render once I'm finished with it. 02:56, 24 November 2015 (EST)
 * My Blender process is sort of like yours- it involves the same few steps. Firstly, I find a good set of models to work with. Normally, I use Mario Kart 8 models, as they are pre-textured and have good quality riggings. I do use Super Smash Bros. U models from time to time, but only with models without multiple faces (although I will try the layers thing you said, it seems like a good thing to do). For my userpage picture and signature, I used the Shy Guy model from Mario Sports Mix. It has quite a lot of bones that I can work with. I also have a customized blue and pink Shy Guy. I don't use anything special for re-texturing, as PAINT.NET does the trick easily. For some models, I have to go with non-rigged, but that is usually okay, as I work round it.
 * For lighting, I have three options- Point, Sun and Spot. Point is like a light-bulb, and I can adjust the energy and colour of it if I need to. The sun creates a constant light source in one direction, and the Spot concentrates a spot of light into a position, like a spotlight. Normally I go with sun for most renders or animations, but I put points in when I need to lighten a certain area. If I want props or background scenery, I download random objects to put in. The final thing I do is go onto render and world settings, and adjust the camera. Its default is to unload objects at around 100 units of distance (not that far), so I turn that off. Secondly, I change the sky and add mist, if it is a scene. For renders, I leave it blank and remove the background in PAINT.NET. Finally, I turn on ambient occlusion and indirect lighting, both settings that vastly improve the lighting and colours.


 * I'm not sure if any of this is familiar with you (I think it would be- Maya seems to be a lot like Blender), but I found out most of these things just by experimenting (I once found an option that makes the image able to be viewed with 3D glasses). I am still very new to these things, and I hope I can only get better, and you should too. 02:54, 25 November 2015 (EST)
 * It's done! I first tried to do my own version of yours (here), which turned out okay. I retexured a Mario Kart 8 Mario, and tried to replicate what you did with the lighting and position. I think I nailed it down pretty well, it's just that Blender has a sort of grainy quality, and can't do any fancy light rims. However, I made up for that by making the background fully transparent from the start. With the launcher, I added a reflective texture on, and turned down the gloss, as I would expect a rocket launcher to be a little rusty. I also tried my own scene (here), in which I experimented with Sweet Sweet Galaxy, which originally came textureless. I hope you like it! 16:02, 25 November 2015 (EST)
 * Yeah, the graininess is an issue, however it's only noticeable when the lighting is set up wrong- adjusting the energy and angle of the lights fixed the problem. The texturing issue with the ear was a small mistake on my part, I'll make sure to readjust that next time. However, when my renders are animated, they do tend to look nicer. 04:05, 29 November 2015 (EST)
 * Thanks! I only noticed the squares once you pointed them out to me- next time, I'll crop them just in case. About the vandal, yeah I shouldn't really talk to them, that kinda just blurted out. 14:26, 6 December 2015 (EST)
 * This. Once I get the sprite sheets, I use Paint and Paint.NET to crop and remove the background of the bit I want, e.g. Luigi's idle pose. I also have to change any pure black to a colour identical to the eye, but with a different data value.. thing. Once I've set it up, I put it into the program and select the number of rows and columns, then remove any blank frames. The program exports it separately in rows, so I piece them together in E-Z gif and change the speed. I can also crop the images if I need to, and do any other enhancements. After that, I download the finished product and upload it here. Before I used the program, I idiotically saved each individual frame in a separate file, and then put them together that way. If I feel especially proud of a gif, I upload it to imgur, because everyone cares. I think that's how most other sprites on this wiki are made. 14:49, 6 December 2015 (EST)
 * P.S. I tend to only animate the sprites that look exiting or have a lot to it, otherwise it just feels boring. The interface is a little confusing at the start, even though there's like 4 buttons, but I got used to it quickly. 14:54, 6 December 2015 (EST)

Vector
In Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games I have a source of Vector, the source is at the bottom of the page (Wii U version). Marioguy (talk) 20:16, 23 November 2015 (EST)

Re:Fawful
Sorry Bazooka Mario I am trying my best I am a little new to Wikipedia I don't even know how to make something good :(

"don't use the color picker"
...I didn't. I rescaled it (nearest neighbour) down to the size of the pixels. Same with all of them - at no point did I redraw anything from scratch.

And with this, I did the same thing with the NOE Twitter pic. (Which I notice you haven't undid the change for...) - Reboot (talk) 18:39, 4 December 2015 (EST)

Item Shop Proposal
I supported you in the proposal and I was thinking and I noticed I have Mario Party DS! So I thought is it ok if I can do the MPDS section? (If the proposal passes of course). Marioguy (talk) 12:17, 5 December 2015 (EST)
