It feels hard to believe that there are over 15 People in both Mumbai and Santa Fortuna, Male and Female all named John Doe. It’s just there Filler Name, sometimes used on purpose in Contracts Maps.

Haha no 😅🙈 I’m just very interested in Colorado and especially in Greys militia 🤭

To be honest, I never tried Contracts mode 🙈 I don’t know why, just like you I mostly play the main story or sometimes the Elusive Targets, if I’m in the mood 😌

> KInd of a odd Question, but I plan to introduce a New Group of Characters in my Novel. Originally I planned a Group of SR2, so I also founded a neat one from my Modded Hitman NPCs and am unsure, who to introduce. (Both or merching them are way too many Characters btw.) I listed all of them down here with a few Stats, there Job and a positive and negative thing about them. Raimundo Steen’s Group Raimundo Steen - Leader Caucasian Mid 60’s Ex-Mercenary Wise Self Assured

To clear this up. I decided to go with neither Group even though I already drew Risae. Instead I decided to form a Group out of Five Civillains from Winterbottom, who of course (mostly) found together in the Apocalalpyse. Unlike before, they have Two Strength & Weaknesses now, since especially Weaknesses such as Risae’s and Storm’s which were just refusing to wear something were pretty tame.

The New Group contains:

I defenitly plan to release it eventually, so I don’t know how yet. Before doing that though, I want to finish Season or Volume 4, which is were I stopped the original novel, because I regrettet some Character Decisions I made. I currently write Chapter 6 of 12 of Volume 2.

Hey @Philipp. I was wondering, how do you do that to the text (partially behind the object, partially in front of)?

cut out his leg and two arms from the picture, layer them on top of the original one, put text in, and put the text behind the arms and leg and in front of the original picture.

Or at least that’s one way of doing it.

You can usually do this by selecting the subject in the image, most editing software can do this but I’ll use Photoshop to demonstrate with a pic of live action Wallace.

Go to the select dropdown, click Select and Mask…

Then draw over what you want to select, and click done.

Oh, I thought you needed a console 😛

Thank you @bgyorok & @CamTheChest, those are some useful tips actually. Do I have any chance for implementing them with PowerPoint though?

I’m not too familiar with PowerPoint, but it should be as relatively easy as placing any image in a slide.

I usually do my simpler projects like FC pictures with PowerPoint for its ease of use. This method is a lot easier, but also needs preparation:

1. Make a greenscreen and normal version of a picture with Ansel if possible.  

2. Get rid of the greenscreen with removebg or other types of software:

3. Layer the greenscreen one on top of the original one (not perfectly aligned for clarification purposes).  

4. Profit.

@Hichkas Yeah, there really are many different approaches to this. If I remember correctly, I rasterized my type layer and converted it into an image. I then manually erased parts of it around the arms and the leg. Normally, I would choose @CamTheChest’s method.

@bgyorok I’m actually blown away by this. Great guide! 😃

I do have to admit that it is broken, but a fix for it is just spamming. Some screenshots will have greenscreen, some will not.  
Of course, it’s not exactly good for your hard drive, so this can only be used if you’re not trying to have 100+ different greenscreen screenshots at once. Even then, mass deleting should relieve your disk space 😀
