Editing Talk:Character customization

==Move to "Custom Move Sets"==
'''Oppose.''' It's more commonly spelt "moveset" and not "move set", the way they present it it doesn't look like an official name to me, and it just doesn't make sense as a page name. [[User:Toomai|Toomai]] [[User talk:Toomai|Glittershine]] [[Image:Toomai.png|20px|link=User:Toomai/Bin|???]] The Frivolous 17:58, 15 May 2014 (EDT)

'''Neutral'''. Eh, Sakurai only barely revealed anything about this during the Direct. Either name is fine for now; we'll probably hear more about this at E3, so it's most likely only a month delay.

'''Neutral.''' We should probably remove the tag until Smash4 comes out. Then we could move it to whatever it's called in-game.[[Special:Contributions/75.85.64.155|75.85.64.155]] 19:18, 15 May 2014 (EDT)

'''Oppose''': This is a much simpler name. Plus it's kinda pointless. Only move it if it's confirmed as something besides this. [[User:Nutta Butta|Nutta Butta]] ([[User talk:Nutta Butta|talk]]) 19:31, 15 May 2014 (EDT)

'''Agree''' The Japanese name looks more like an official one, and I figure that the English one probably is if the Japanese one is. In addition, doesnt it make sense to use a name used by an official source when no official name has been confirmed nor any unofficial name become so commonly used that it is essentially standard? I know [[SW:OFFICIAL]], but it's not like Custom Move Sets is an "unknown term", or much different from Moveset Customization.

: I don't understand, do you want to move it there because you want the page title to be a translation of the official Japanese term... which it already is? - <font face="lucida handwriting,segoe script">Ceci n’est pas un [[User:Smiddle|Smiddle]].</font> 14:03, 17 May 2014 (EDT)

'''Agree''' per FirstaLasto [[User:Laikue|Laikue]] ([[User talk:Laikue|talk]]) 10:01, 16 May 2014 (EDT)

Emphatically '''Disagree'''. I mean, Sakurai said it in the Direct, but it's not official... anything can change. Also, SmashWiki is not official. Generally, people will refer to it as... well, either/or (I'd say Moveset Customization is the Noun, though.. And, yeah, Move Set looks... messy, to say the least.

'''Oppose''' I prefer the title the way it is now. Besides, "move sets" looks awkward, to be honest. [[User:Berrenta|Berrenta]] ([[User talk:Berrenta|talk]]) 13:10, 17 May 2014 (EDT)

'''Oppose''' "Move Set" is inconsistent, and the majority of pages like this refer to the subject in a similar way to this one.

== Move to "Character customization" ==

It's been confirmed that there's more than just moveset customization, so I believe a move is appropriate. {{s|user|Red}} ([[User talk:Red|talk]]) [[File:RedSig.png|12px|link=Special:Contributions/Red|Red]] 15:32, 11 June 2014 (EDT)

== A bit on Pit and DK ==

DK was seen at E3 in the Treehouse to also have an alternate up-b move. Also, it has not been confirmed that Pit's arrows are slower with more control. How do we know that it doesn't automatically go in loop-da-loops? Speculation is not allowed on Smash Wiki. [[Special:Contributions/72.105.73.188|72.105.73.188]] 15:32, 13 July 2014 (EDT)
:The one you mentioned for Pit is already listed, as it was displayed in the April 8 Smash Direct. For DK, that needs investigation. [[User:Berrenta|Berrenta]] ([[User talk:Berrenta|talk]]) 15:35, 13 July 2014 (EDT)
::Um, he was referring to the fact that the information we have wasn't necessarily confirmed on Pit. I don't know about that, I have very little info on it. [[User:Nutta Butta|Nutta Butta]] ([[User talk:Nutta Butta|talk]]) 15:40, 13 July 2014 (EDT)

== List of special move variants ==

Is this needed? I think we should just have the information on the special move pages themselves. - <font face="lucida handwriting,segoe script">Ceci n’est pas un [[User:Smiddle|Smiddle]].</font> 11:53, 14 July 2014 (EDT)
:We probably should move the information to those pages at a later point. Ultimately, what should end up on this page is an explanation of customization plus a table of special move variant names, with the detail on those variants on appropriate pages. This isn't urgent, though, and could easily wait for the Japanese release.

== Amiibo Figures ==

I just watched the amiibo trailer to double-check, and nowhere did Bill Trinen say that amiibo figures would be used to transfer customized characters between games,  just that the amiibo can be customized themselves. He also doesn't even say that amiibo will even be compatible with the 3DS version, although it is implied. Furthermore, the 3DS peripheral doesn't come out until next year, long after amiibo and both versions of Smash 4 come out, meaning players would have to wait until next year to be able to transfer customizations if they so desired. I think until further information in given, we should wait to say how this function works. [[User:ScizorSteelix|ScizorSteelix]] ([[User talk:ScizorSteelix|talk]]) 11:08, 17 July 2014 (EDT)
:This is not an argument against amiibo being used for this function; it is an observation that there are probably more ways to do it. [[User:ScizorSteelix|ScizorSteelix]] ([[User talk:ScizorSteelix|talk]]) 14:53, 17 July 2014 (EDT)

== Homing Missile ==

When at SDCC, I was playing the 3DS demo of Smash run, and I saw a custom move for Luigi, side special it said, called homing missile. I can't prove it, but I promise you I'm telling the truth. [[Special:Contributions/75.141.44.196|75.141.44.196]] 14:28, 5 August 2014 (EDT)

== Organization ==

The way this article is put together is a bit of a hodgepodge. Locating a specific special move for a specific fighter is an incredible hassle, and the manner in which the table is organized is to blame. I believe that abandoning the table and using the equal sign headlines would make it much easier to find information. I can reorganize it in this manner, I just would like to know if anyone opposes this. [[User:Toymakers Creation|Toymakers Creation]] ([[User talk:Toymakers Creation|talk]]) 14:51, 16 September 2014 (EDT)
:I think abandoning the list on this page altogether is the best solution. Then we don't have duplicate info on both this page and the special move pages. Similarly, we'd make a "Powers" page that has the list of powers, an "Equipment" page that has the list of equipment, and so on.

::I could begin putting the known customization options onto the specific Special Moves pages, under a "Customization" headline.

:::The problem with an "equipment" page is that equipment is largely randomly generated. We'd be better off listing possible passive effects, equipment classes (shoes, swords, gyroids, pokemon-only items), and their names. [[User:Akvo|Akvo]] ([[User talk:Akvo|talk]]) 03:16, 17 September 2014 (EDT)

==Inaccurate info?==
There's conflicting information with some other pages. Specifically, I've run into a problem where [[Peach (SSB4)]] states that custom moves do different things than what's listed here, such as saying that Vegetable can be customized into Boomerang Veggie, while this page says it can be customized into Light Veggie. [[User:Roarmoocowz|Roarmoocowz]] ([[User talk:Roarmoocowz|talk]]) 22:54, 23 September 2014 (EDT)

== Outfits ==

By any chance can we move the outfits to a new section. The least we should do is add images above each name in a gallery. --[[User:Ma321|Ma321]] ([[User talk:Ma321|talk]]) 8:14, 24 September 2014 (EDT)

== Removing the unknown column  ==

Besides the Hammer Bash, it's unessessary and that could easily be noted in the trivia  section. Frankly I'm scared of messing the table mark-up so I daren't touch it. [[User:Guybrush20X6|Guybrush20X6]] ([[User talk:Guybrush20X6|talk]]) 07:11, 25 September 2014 (EDT)
:Since Hammer Bash is literally the only thing in that column, I think that would be a better idea. [[User:Berrenta|Berrenta]] ([[User talk:Berrenta|talk]]) 09:33, 25 September 2014 (EDT)

== Custom special move deletion ==

I don't believe they should be deleted. I believe we should have a separate page which lists the custom special moves and uses their in-game descriptions and image seen in the description. I also believe that the default special moves should be listed on the page, too, but that's not necessary. In other words, I would like a page similar to the trophy pages, except with custom special moves. {{s|user|PikaSamus}} ([[User talk:PikaSamus|talk]]) [[File:PikaSamusSig.png|12px|link=Special:Contributions/PikaSamus|PikaSamus]] 10:32, 14 October 2014 (EDT)

:::That's kind of different though, because it's just a list of links, and no information is duplicated. We can't do the same for a "list of custom moves" page because most of them don't have their own pages, and so would either be just a list of names (not really helpful) or a list of names and descriptions (duplicated information).

== Naming differences between NA and PAL versions. ==

If all the custom move names displayed on the page now are correct, there are some differences in the PAL version names. I'll list them below since I can't think of a good way to include them on the list and the page seems to be undergoing some sort of change anyway. I hope someone makes use of this. The PAL names are on the right side of the arrow:

== EVO custom specials ==

So, since EVO plans to make use of custom specials, and according to http://smashboards.com/threads/customs-evo-and-making-sets.392449/, they are planning on using a SmashBoards project determining the best custom specials for each character. Should we make mention of this somewhere and the sets the project lists? Sorry if this is the wrong talk page, I didn't know the best place to put it. [[Special:Contributions/72.15.80.185|72.15.80.185]] 19:28, 23 February 2015 (EST)
:It's not a bad idea, but I would say a) this isn't the page for it to be on and b) we should wait for a standardized set of customs to come out. At that point, and only at that point, should we make a page like "Standard Custom Movesets" or something like that to document it. The only other place I can imagine it being listed is as a section of the eventual "Tournament legal (SSB4)" page, which doesn't exist yet but probably should be made soon once there's a more consistent ruleset.

== Custom Moves List ==

It seems that there was once a list of all custom moves but it was inexplicably removed. I was looking for one such list myself and upon finding that it existed before and it was removed, why? Can it come back, and if so, could i make a new one? I'm not really sure why this would be removed because it'd be a pretty convenient list - [[User:Qyzxf|Qyzxf]] ([[User talk:Qyzxf|talk]]) 14:36, July 7, 2020 (EDT)
