No rush, I expect this will take weeks, if not a couple of months to do properly. I've been lucky enough to have some spare moments this week to make a decent start on it, but will not be able to keep up this rate. I don't know if you noticed, but I have tested it out on non-GTAV vehicles and it seems to work OK. Obviously there will be no 1st person shot, and no badges for 3D universe, but I think it still looks reasonable.

p.s. I still can't get a Brawler to roll over and stay rolled over. I may have to resort to video capture and freeze-frame! No idea how I'm going to get the underside of the Dozer either. smurfy (coms) 11:40, July 15, 2015 (UTC)

RE: Strange Dashboard Glitch?
It's a glitch with the Rockstar Editor. It appears fine in game or if I re-add the clip. R* Editor is actually glitchy when loading clips. Sometimes I record a sparkling clean car and when I load the clip in R* Editor the car either has a level 4 dirt on it or is clean as it was.

I'll try fix the images once I upload Sultan and an IV car attempt - Sultan also has a screenshot with glitched dials. 17:32, July 16, 2015 (UTC)


 * Khamelion, Futo and Sultan images have been fixed. v-michael-trunk-mini.jpg V-franklin-trunk-mini.jpg V-trevor-trunk-mini.jpg 18:39, July 16, 2015 (UTC)

Haha
I agree. LS11sVaultBoy (Talk) 20:28, July 16, 2015 (UTC)
 * Same here. I'm sure there are bound to be other "Yorkshire's", even if they aren't from Leeds. You're in North Leeds (I think) and I'm in South Leeds, so even we are a quite a distance apart, even in the same city.
 * I think that Cloud and Tony both lived in the same town in America. Blyth I believe. It may not be Tony, but I know it was someone. LS11sVaultBoy (Talk) 21:17, July 16, 2015 (UTC)
 * @Vault Boy, it's me that lives nearby to Cloud. Sorry to butt in this though. [[Image:Smashbro8-Sig-pt1.png|90px|link=User:Smashbro8|Smashbro8]] ([[Image:Smashbro8-Sig-pt2.png|50px|link=User talk:Smashbro8|Talk]]) 21:38, July 16, 2015 (UTC)Smashbro8
 * It's fine. I just looked, and you actually all live near each other, as Tony's profile does say Blythe, California. LS11sVaultBoy (Talk) 21:47, July 16, 2015 (UTC)

Mallard Pics
Hey Monk. I was just checking the Mallard page and turns out that this plane NEVER got a proper front and rear pic. Since you and Sean have been collecting some pics for the vehicles, I thought in letting you know this. DLVIII  Talk  19:10, July 18, 2015 (UTC)


 * Oh. I never knew! I'll try to get one tomorrow. Thanks for letting me know :) Monkeypolice188-Signature LSPD.png Loudhailer-V-render.png StunGun-GTA5-ingame.png 19:34, July 18, 2015 (UTC)

RE: Design Gallery images redo
I'll replace them once everything else is done. They aren't that much of a priority right now - cars are clearly visible in them so no need for urgent replacing. And IMO they're fine, image sizes is what I don't like but I'm pretty sure most people don't even care about image sizes.

Though I wonder what's going to happen with the project now that Smurfynz has left. 10:55, July 19, 2015 (UTC)


 * It'll probably be the same case as with RainingPain. Still, shame to see him go like that. I'll continue working with the ones I've "reserved", then we can split the remainder between us or something, if he doesn't come back. v-michael-trunk-mini.jpg V-franklin-trunk-mini.jpg V-trevor-trunk-mini.jpg 11:03, July 19, 2015 (UTC)

RE:Vehicle Table issues
Stretched the description section a bit and made the stats images smaller. Looks ok on my end now - how does it look like for you? 13:03, July 19, 2015 (UTC)

RE: Admin Election
Sure. I'll add you into it now. I'm going to send you a message on a random wiki telling you to send me the answers to the Admin Cases there. Good luck! LS11sVaultBoy (Talk) 15:05, July 19, 2015 (UTC)

Masks Page Photos
Hello Monks! It's been a while! I was going talk about the photos on the "Masks" page, I honestly don't think we can get photos of every single one on there. I really appreciated the work you did on the page with the photos, but considering you have other projects and things to be working on, and I don't have a proper hook-up from my Xbone to PC to transfer screenshots, it just seems unlikely we'll get it done anytime soon.

I just wanted to know if you're alright with me deleting the "photos" column and photos, moving ones mentioned in blocks of text to that area of the page. Would that be alright? Also, saw your profile, I'm sorry to hear that man! It gets better, and want you to know that. Mortsnarg (talk) 03:23, July 21, 2015 (UTC)


 * Sorry I haven't answered your message straight away (being keeping away from the wiki for a few days, as well as seeing my psychologist), but, yeah, to be honest, I think it's the best option to remove the current images. I myself cannot afford to take screenshots of every single mask (or be bothered quite frankly). I think images of the GTA V Story mode masks would be acceptable, as there aren't as many, and some of them play a vital role in the GTA V story (heists, etc). Thanks for asking. :) Monkeypolice188-Signature LSPD.png Loudhailer-V-render.png StunGun-GTA5-ingame.png 09:39, July 22, 2015 (UTC)
 * It's fine! I understand, everyone needs a little time away. I'll get on it right away! Mortsnarg (talk) 17:38, July 22, 2015 (UTC)

Unmarked Cruiser
I can't say I've ever seen one online, I did try finding one once, pretty sure it was supposed to spawn in the same location (the train station). I suspect it may have spawned early on, possibly on PS3/Xbox360 only, but it may have been stealth-patched out at some point.

p.s. I nearly put the same rename template on The Vault until I screengrabbed the posters and noticed the "The" was there. Smurfynz (talk) 09:54, July 23, 2015 (UTC)

Thanks Monk, i'll do my best, if anything ask me =] AndreEagle17     13:31, July 24, 2015 (UTC)

Mallard Pics
No problem. After you left the wikia because of your personal problens, I imagined that you had forgotten about the pics. I don't like asking for a favor more then once for the same person, (I always feel like I'm bothering the person), so I askwed Wild instead. DLVIII  Talk  18:03, July 24, 2015 (UTC)

The Hen House
Last time I checked, a "gentlemens" club and a stip club are the same thing.Swordsplay83 (talk) 15:40, July 25, 2015 (UTC)


 * No in-game evidence supports it is a strip club. Read Smurfy's statement. Look on the wikipedia, you can find a direct description of what it actually is:

"A gentlemen's club is a members-only private club originally set up by and for British upper class men in the 18th century, and popularised by English upper-middle class men and women in the late 19th century and early 20th century. Today, some clubs are more accommodating about the gender and social status of their members."

- Wikipedia's header-description


 * Nothing in this quote mentions anything about a Strip Club, nor does the description refer or describe it to as one.

Maps
The entire maps functioanlity on wikia is balls. I tried to clean them up but even the stuff you delete is still visible. There is virtually no audit log and no undo. I gave up trying to police it.

If it were up to me, they'd all be gone, but yeah, those latest 2 should both be removed. Smurfy: illuminate - communicate - spectate 10:03, July 28, 2015 (UTC)


 * (edit) and give the user his first official warning for nonsense edits for adding it. Smurfy: illuminate - communicate - spectate 10:05, July 28, 2015 (UTC)
 * Quite a few of his edits have been reverted already and borderline warning material. maps log tells you whodunnit. Looks like Tom has been busy last month trying to make at least one of them useful (letter scraps) but even he messed up the marker names and probably found (like I did) that he cannot delete the mis-named one. As I said... balls. Smurfy: illuminate - communicate - spectate 10:18, July 28, 2015 (UTC)
 * Yes, you can delete individual pins, but try deleting a pin category. Tom may have added that "Created by LS11sVaultBoy" one deliberately though, not sure why though. Smurfy: illuminate - communicate - spectate 10:28, July 28, 2015 (UTC)

RE:Renaming
All done. DLVIII  Talk  14:03, July 28, 2015 (UTC)

Random characters
Hey Monk. Can you give me your opinion on this table? Do you think it looks too confusing or that it could be improved? DLVIII  Talk  15:17, July 28, 2015 (UTC)


 * Ouch, that is very hectic. IMO, I think the image of Barry should be placed under the name "Barry", and get rid of the first section which it currently lies in. Also, the colouring is a little awkward, the white should be replaced with gray, and the yellow + purple sections should be altered to something similar to the other colours. Monkeypolice188-Signature-2.png &bull; Monkeypolice188-Signature-4.png &bull;  Monkeypolice188-Signature-3.png 15:24, July 28, 2015 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the tips. I tried to follow the same pattern of colors from the missions in GTA V navbox, (yellow for sections with trevor and Franklin, purple for sections with Trevor and Michael) but I guess it doesn't work here. Andre liked the table, but I will try to work on it a little more. DLVIII   Talk  15:30, July 28, 2015 (UTC)

Deer/Deers
You were right the first time. :) Smurfy: illuminate - communicate - spectate 08:58, July 29, 2015 (UTC)

RE:Renaming
Really? That's different. When I was about to rename that page, I saw that it was previously named Deers, so that only made me believe even more that Deers was actually a thing. Well, the more you learn. DLVIII  Talk  14:47, July 29, 2015 (UTC)

RE: Deleted Rabbit
What's the problem exactly? Page is renamed, nothing links to "Rabbit". ­ 18:20, July 29, 2015 (UTC) EDIT: Nevermind, saw the other message. ­ 18:25, July 29, 2015 (UTC)

Request
Dear Guy,

Some asshat called Chad Harmon is irritating users, and has been spamming the chat full so we have to scroll ages back to re-read something, I dearly request his chatban because he is a annoying fuckface.

Kind regards.

RE: Image Licenses
Yeah, I'm aware of that, I'm just also very busy with the GTA Wiki's social media at the minute so I have been rushing. I did expect someone to notice and correct me. I'll add them when I get time. LS11sVaultBoy (Talk) 19:35, August 4, 2015 (UTC)

Maybe there's an issue with your computer. Ever tried turn it off and turn it back on again lol? Leo68 (talk) 16:30, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

Street Image
Hey, Monkey. Would you mind getting us a better quality image of Altona Avenue? Thanks. LS11sVaultBoy (Talk) 15:30, August 6, 2015 (UTC)


 * Call me Monk ;) And yeah. sure, i'll get some more today. Can you list all pages which require street images here please? Thanks! Monkeypolice188-Signature-2.png &bull; Monkeypolice188-Signature-4.png &bull; Monkeypolice188-Signature-3.png 15:34, August 6, 2015 (UTC)


 * Yeah, sure. It'll take some time to get them all because there are 48 pages of images needed in the category. LS11sVaultBoy (Talk) 15:38, August 6, 2015 (UTC)
