I did play around with trying to find a "match colour" method a few months ago. Worked well for this pic but not so sure after trying it out with others. I thought the Gimp might do better at matching colours if not having to worry about luminance at the same time. ![]() Then in step 6 I went back to the original pic for the original luminance. So what step did you do different for that result?īefore starting I removed the luminance information from both pics by decomposing, setting Y channels to gray, and recomposing. wondering if this is a better result?Īt first I couldn't tell what the difference was, then I noticed the skin had more saturation. I then create the script step by step checking each step as I go. Right, I always do the steps manually first to ensure they are all there and work as expected. got to go back to RGB before you can decompose. I tried following your steps last night and decompose is not an option if the image is an indexed one. Tuxcomputers Can you confirm that you missed a step of converting the image back to RGB between steps 3 and 4? Rore (a group admin) edited this topic ages ago. This is rather interesting, but It does not look really good to me - at least on that example, especially on the woman face that turned greenish. I have not checked the group lately and have only just noticed this, I have another script to do and will give this one a go as well in the next day or so. Somebody here knows Peter Kirchgessner, who wrote the decompose plug-in a ten years ago? Maybe it is possible to integrate this procedure into that plug-in. I see the decompose plug-in creates layers with a localized name, so this makes the things even more difficult. The tricky part will be to deal with various image and layer names. paste the blue layer of PLT_470 over the blue layer of IMG_470 paste the red layer of PLT_470 over the red layer of IMG_470 get the name of the new image (supposedly IMG_470) decompose IMG, mode YCbCr_ITU_R470 with layers get the name of the new image (supposedly PLT_470) ![]() decompose PLT, mode YCbCr_ITU_R470 with layers convert PLT to indexed color mode, 256 colors optimum (with or without dithering?) I'd try to script it, if someone can give a little help. In step 4 you need to set the mode back to RGB before it will allow you to decompose. I am always very appreciative of those who post tutorials / how-to's. right a script will be handy is a cool effect.īut about script and codes all i can do for help is just a added bump The most convenient place to put it might be a script :) I've seen techniques to give an "Impressionist" look to photographs (don't recall what they were though), but to be able to use the same colours sounds really cool. Wondering if this shouldn't go on a wiki somewhere. This combines the colour information from the nasty step-3 picture with the luma information from the original picture. STEP 9: go to Image->Mode->Compose and select YCbCr_ITU_R470 again. STEP 8: Blur both of the new colour layers a bit. STEP 7: Copy the two colour layers from the other picture (ie the picture made in step 4) into the picture being modified. STEP 6: Delete the two colour layers (redness/blueness) from the picture you want to modify, leaving just the luma layer. STEP 5: Repeat step 4 on the picture you want to modify. The third layer looks more normal because it encodes the luminance of the image. Two of the layers look a bit weird, because they encode the colour content of the image. This gets you a 3 layer 'monochrome' picture. STEP 4: Flatten the image and then go to Image->Mode->Decompose and select YCbCr_ITU_R470, having ticked "decompose to layers". Here's what this gets us: A really really shoddy version of what we're actually looking for: The Gimp has no choice but to render your image in the 256 colours it got from the old master. (You can do this by dragging the thumbnail from the layers menu). STEP 3: Copy the image you want to modify as a new layer into the old master. ![]() STEP 2: Change your old master to indexed colour mode, 256 colours, with optimum palette. (Doesn't matter about the aspect ratio, its the colours we're after not the image). STEP 1: Resize your old master to the same size as the picture you want to modify.

Banners can be hung off platforms which are in their staircase or bottom position (after being struck with a hammer).This can be proven by using Binoculars and Sniper Scope. The effective range of the buffs from banners is based on the center of the player's view, not where the character is positioned.If an NPC lands the killing blow on an enemy that would have dropped a banner, the last player to hit the enemy receives the banner.If the player's inventory is full when they get a banner, it will drop beside them.The effect in Expert can easily grow to the point where one can kill a Wyvern in one or two multi-hits with a banner when one had to previously dance with it (10+ hits) and the very same weapon. Upping the Player Defense by 24 to 73 (54.75 Damage Reduction). Original Damage 363.25.Ĥ00×0.5−36.75 = 164 ( 45% of the original damage) instead of simply 50% of the damage. High Damage Example, fictional since no melee attack hits as hard as a Pirate Captain's Cannon Ball:Ĥ00 Damage, Titanium Armor 49 Defense (36.75 Damage Reduction). In normal Mode, Enemy Base Damage is usually halved, Player Defense 80 (40 Damage Reduction):ĥ0×0.75−40 = −2.5 damage ( 1 damage) instead of (50−40)×0.75 = 7.5 Damage. The lower and further apart, the closer the effect is to the original values.Īs an example for Expert Mode, Weapon Damage 50 and Enemy Defense 80 (40 Damage Reduction):ĥ0×2−40 = 60 damage dealt instead of (50−40)×2 = 20 damage.ĥ0×1.5−40 = 35 damage dealt instead of 15 damage.Įxample for damage dealt to the player, Expert Mode, 100 Damage, Player Defense 80 (60 Damage Reduction):ġ00×0.5−60 = −10 damage ( 1 damage) instead of (100−60)×0.5 = 20 damage. The real effect of banners grows the bigger the values are as well as how close Base Damage and Damage Reduction are. This also applies to other player and weapon damage modifiers but not player damage reduction ones. Since banners affect base damage rather than the calculation after defense is taken into account, 10 final damage does not just become 15 or 20 damage but can vary greatly. Out of these, 117 belong to event enemies (28 pre-Hardmode and 89 Hardmode) and 12 to Old-gen console and 3DS -exclusive enemy variants (7 pre-Hardmode and 5 Hardmode).Įffect on damage and defense calculation There are a total of 300 enemy banners: 122 pre-Hardmode, 171 Hardmode, and 7 unobtainable. The number of kills required to get a banner from this event depends on the enemy's frequency: common enemies need a higher number of kills. Banners dropped by enemies from the Old One's Army are purely decorative and do not grant a buff.On the Old-gen console version and Nintendo 3DS version, any enemy banner has a 0.5*1/200 (0.5%) chance of dropping from its corresponding enemy.Additionally, a status message saying " has defeated the n- th !" appears, with n being the respective multiple of 50. If the player's inventory is full, the banner will be dropped to the ground at the player's location instead. On the Desktop version, Console version, Mobile version, Nintendo Switch version, and tModLoader version, an enemy banner automatically appears in the player's inventory upon every 50th kill of that enemy in a particular world.Multiple different banner types in the vicinity will however all take effect, and consolidate into a single buff icon. Multiple banners of the same type will not grant stacked buffs. ![]() The buff grants players +50%/ +100% damage inflicted with all damage to the corresponding enemy and −25%/ −50% damage taken from attacks by the enemy. On the Desktop version, Console version, Mobile version, Nintendo Switch version, and tModLoader version, when placed, enemy banners provide a buff to any players standing within a rectangular area of 170×125 ( ) / 100×84 ( ) tiles centered on the banner. They are dropped by most enemies and a few critters. For decorative banners, see Banners (decorative).Įnemy banners are functional furniture items that can be placed on the underside of blocks.

They cut glass and many jewelers and sometimes, even trained gemologists find it hard to spot the difference between a perfect mined diamond and a Nexus Diamond even if they use a loupe.Īre Nexus Diamonds Considered as Diamonds? However, their chemical compound is different. These diamonds look the same as mined diamonds to the naked eye. Value-conscious lovers and others may therefore want to stick to purchasing only natural diamonds, since these maintain unassailably superior market value from one generation to the next.A Nexus Diamond is a patented diamond simulant or simulated diamond that is grown in a laboratory. According to Nan Summerfield, senior vice president and director of California operations for the New York-based heritage auction house DOYLE, “While natural diamonds hold their value across time and many can be resold for good prices, the secondary market for lab-grown diamonds has yet to come into existence.” Certainly, lab-grown diamonds are made of the same material as natural diamonds are, but because LGDs are manmade, they have zero resale value, unlike that of natural gems. In the final analysis, jewelry experts often stress that unlike natural diamonds, LGDs are considered practically worthless by high-end estate jewelers and the most discerning auction houses. use natural diamonds that are verified as having been ethically sourced in their one-of-a-kind and limited edition designs.

While its video entitled “Mia Donna: The Eco Diamond” lauds the environmentally sustainable merits of its lab-created goods, the FTC states that when companies make a claim about their environmental record, this must be substantiated with data and evidence. Mia Donna is another company that the FTC warned in writing. The company also insists that it uses only renewable energy to produce its industrially produced stones without providing an evidence-based report on its energy sources. The website of lab-grown diamond company Lark & Berry employs the word “cultured” to describe its products, despite FTC guidelines that terms such as this may mislead customers as to jewelry product origins.ĭiamond Foundry uses the word “real” on its website despite the FTC’s prohibition of applying this term to lab-grown diamonds.

Template: The resilient product roadmap But if 2020 was any indication of the role that ambiguity and uncertainty will play going forward, modern product teams will need to get aligned and become more resilient. The fact is, strategic planning is tough even when market opportunities and customer needs seem crystal clear. By now, we’re all tired of hearing the terms new normal and unprecedented times, but that is the reality we’ve found ourselves in. Answering what if? is critical, especially in 2021. An effective product roadmap provides stakeholders with important context for a product's future functionality, and responds to meet changes in the competitive landscape.

There are 110 recreational dispensaries in Illinois, the maximum currently allowed under state law, but that number is expected to grow.Ī long-delayed lottery to award 75 new licenses with a social equity focus is likely to move forward this year after the state gave hundreds of unsuccessful applicants a second chance to qualify.For those unaware this is a legal issue. The pace has accelerated in 2021, with nearly $527 million in total marijuana sales through April, including $394 million in recreational sales and $133 million in medical sales, according to the state. That included $669 million in recreational weed sales and more than $366 million in medical sales, according to the Department of Financial and Professional Regulation, which regulates dispensaries in the state. Marijuana sales in Illinois have soared since the state legalized recreational use in January 2020, reaching $1.03 billion last year. “If they keep adding more and more licenses, there might be a race to the bottom for what they pay workers. “We’re not just looking at this as just a way to get additional members, we’re trying to transform an industry,” Glimco said. Longer term, as the cannabis industry grows and more dispensaries open in Illinois, workers and the unions both want a bigger piece of the pie, Glimco said. Among the concerns for MOCA employees is that they are no longer able to receive tips and their discount for buying cannabis products has been reduced under Ascend, Glimco said. MOCA budtenders make about $20 an hour, which is above the national average of $15 an hour, according to a 2020 salary guide published by Vangst, a Denver-based cannabis recruiting website.
