Board Thread:News and Announcements/@comment-5645428-20170528060811

Although this isn't a major announcement or significant progress update, I can assure you that things are getting done and the wiki really is close to a true level of relative completion! On our way there, there are a few things we need some help with.

The first thing is a few queries I've had for a long time that I don't recall receiving conclusive answers to.
 * 1) How many loading screen phrases are there in total as of Update 2.1? If anyone knows how many, is there any place where we may be able to find all the current loading screen phrases (i.e. in the game files)?
 * 2) How are user coins verified? Is every last one verified by level moderators, or is there some automated process that verifies them based on how many players collect them combined with how many complete the level?
 * 3) Similarly, at what point to levels receive stars and at what point are they featured? Is this manually carried out are is the process automated?

All the audio on the wiki has been reviewed and it is all excellent quality. There are just two full soundtracks identified whose quality is slightly lower than their in-game counterparts. If anyone is up to it, please do a bit of an online search (probably away from YouTube) to find versions that more closely match their counterparts' quality and replace the old audio files on the wiki.
 * GeometricalDominatorFull.ogg (slightly noticeable)
 * TheSevenSeasFull.ogg (noticeable)

Progress on image uploads and replacements has been blazing. Right now, there are two images that are Steam only which we need an alternate uploader to our current menu image man to provide. Both these images must: If you can fulfil this criteria, feel free to replace the images
 * KeyBindings.png
 * SettingsGraphics.png
 * Be 1920x1080px
 * Have a deep blue background
 * Have no passing icons

There are just two image series which need major work. These are 'Level images' and 'Coin location images'. As is standard, these images must be 1920x1080px. However, you will need to work with me as I provide instructions for you in order to capture these images at just the right moment. You should be prepared to make several attempts to correctly time this, for what includes at least 4 images per 24 levels, plus 10 World images, plus 2 additional levels. As you can see, this is over 100 captures, so you must be prepared to see this to the end. If you do, though, you will be very epic and very awesome (although Rrobertus02 will still be the king of uploads seeing he uploaded just about every last map component image up to Update 1.9 plus more batches from Update 2.0 and 2.1). Completing this will leave most of our level articles in perfect form, with just one other thing...

Lastly, we would like to check that the trivia on every level article regarding minimum jumps and minimum completion time is correct. Anyone can do this and you get to replay those classic levels again for sheer nostalgia too.
 * You can report back on this thread what you got. Remember, no unnecessary jumping, it's on the first attempt, and try combinations of the secret coin passages. You may report if used a 'glitch route' or if you 'skipped' jumps by being sneaky, but do mention this independently of the 'normal' way to beat levels.
 * Please also mention what device you're using and whether you have Everyplay enabled. I am aware that different devices will record different completion times for just the single attempt.

And that is all for now. Also, just a reminder that June 12 is the day Fandom will be updating the Oasis skin site layout to incorporate the new page and article headers as well as updated rail modules. Check out Community Central for more information and previews.

Keep smashing, Crashing (June 30, fellas) and dashing!
