I can’t remember allowing you to use this photograph of me, not cool bro!

[bgyorok]

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.

Thanks for reminding me that his abomination exists

@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!

[DrMekar]

How did you got Ansel Greenscreen to work?

[bgyorok]

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

Does anybody know why in the inventory the Small Goldbar is the only «Melee Gear» and all other melees are in the «Weapons»-category?

[Khakiasp]

because it also functions as a coin

[djsojus]

Oh, didn’t know that! So people are picking the goldbar up? Shouldn’t it be in the Distractions category then?

[Khakiasp]

@djsojus

So people are picking the goldbar up?

they dont pick it up, but when you throw it, it has the same distraction range and people go to it like the coin

[djsojus]

Another question, sorry!
I’m thinking about a new contract where I can restrict the loadout. Could anyone check if they can bring the Fiber Wire with them in the following “Smuggled Item”-spots in Paris:

• Basement Stairwell
• Empty Attic Room
• Shed
• Logistics Trailer

Only talking about the “real” Fiber Wire (or classic). Not earphones or such.

Not really using the Fiber Wire for this contract. It’s just to check if those sometimes missing items at a few spots are for everybody or just me

[ZeroGravitas]

I haven’t been able to smuggle the default gear (ICA19, Fiber Wire, Coins) into any Agency Pickups or briefcases for as long as I can remember (in H3) and a couple of months ago (maybe when I got the PS5 version?) it started to include a handful of other items, including a couple of fiber wire variants and the Micro Taser.

It’s a bug that a lot of people have reported and which items are affected seems to vary from person to person. (It seems like a lot of people notice it when they can’t smuggle in a particular sniper rifle.)

[djsojus]

Too bad that it’s individual. Would have been fun to make a contract with a certain gun, a melee and so on and restrict the player that way.

[Heisenberg]

I’ve smuggled coins in hidden stashed before, since all the way back to 2016. Fiber wire, never tried snuggling; I never move it from default. Why would 47 ever go into a kill zone without it on him (Hokkaido and Berlin not-withstanding)?

@Khakiasp

they dont pick it up

Hitman NPCs are officially the dumbest beings Alive lol

[Rimland]

Or the smartest. I mean if you see a gold bar lying randomly somewhere it obviously shouldn’t, you know something shifty is going on

[djsojus]

I don’t know how many times I’ve already picked up a goldbar from the street. But then again I live in Switzerland. Guess that’s normal here.

[linux_penguin]

@Khakiasp

they dont pick it up

Did they change it to that in Hitman 3? Surely they did in H2.

[djsojus]

I’m toying around with a contract for the Wrath submission. In Dartmoor. It’s kind of difficult (at least for the casual players) to do suit only, no ko, and with razor kills. But it’s probably more fun for everyone – especially the speedrunners/creative players – to make it an any/any-contract. Not really sure what I should do:

• Make the hard contract! Everybody loves a challenge!
• Make it kind of hard. Maybe a kill or a disguise restriction. But not both.
• Make it any/any!
• Really?! Do we need another submission for this?

[Khakiasp]

they did? then they probably still do in 3
