Saved Layer States lets you save a variety of visible/invisible Layer states based on different criteria to make viewing different versions of images quick and easy. Other new features for photographers include Band-Pass, which provides an easy way to work with frequency Layers for advanced retouching and creating creative effects. Plus, there are Compound Masks that allow you to combine multiple masked layers non-destructively using add, intersect, subtract and XOR operations. And working similarly is Luminosity, which allows you to mask specific brightness ranges to apply precise adjustments with speed and ease. In terms of advanced features, Hue Range allows you to generate masks based on specific colors and color ranges. So, if taking advantage of Non-Destructive Raw, any cloning work should only be performed once you’re 100% happy with the Raw processing. This is a great feature, but the only downside to this is that if you have performed any cloning, healing or other similar work where you’ve created new pixel-based Layers, adjusting the underlying Raw file doesn’t apply to the cloning or other pixel Layers. All these are perpetual licenses, too, so no monthly or annual subscription is required. ![]() What’s more, if you also use design software you can pick up the full suite of Affinity software which includes Affinity Photo 2, Affinity Designer 2, and Affinity Publisher 2 for $169.99/£144.99. But at just $69.99/£50.99 for the desktop version or $19.99/£17.99 for the iPad version, Affinity Photo 2 is incredibly good value for money. It’s highly capable, and indeed powerful software, that’s only let down by the lack of Raw image cataloging or some kind of image browser for viewing and managing images.Ī feature of this kind would elevate Affinity Photo 2 even higher, and make its workflow much more seamless. The software uses a single interface split into ‘Personas’ that are used for performing specific editing tasks, such as Raw processing or image adjustments/manipulation, etc. If you have specific questions/issues please place a link to the video or tutorial you are following so you can quickly point the location of the tools/function whatever you are looking for.Affinity Photo 2 is pixel-based photo editing software available for Mac, Windows, and iPad, and it offers most of the functionality of Photoshop CC alongside its own unique features. If you are using a Mac you can also use the menu Help ▸ Search to locate commands found in the menus of the application. The help file (also available online) contaions explanations for all tools, panels, options as well. To learn more about the interface and the basics check the first sections of the video tutorials provided on this thread: Official Affinity Photo (Desktop) Video Tutorials. Here's the panels available (by default) in Photo Persona for example: They provide commands/controls related with their function/name (you can enable/disable them going to menu View ▸ Studio and selecting the ones you want visible). The panels are all located on the right side of the application by default and also change depending on the Persona (workspace) you have selected. ![]() Here the context toolbar for the View Tool (selected in my screenshot above - the hand icon): ![]() When you select one of the tools from the toolbar, the context toolbar located right above the work area, displays all the settings/options available for that tool specifically. and set the Number of Columns (on the bottom dropdown) to 2 or more.

It will ask you if you want to switch branch, pick the ‘Bring my changes to’ option. If I can pick myself I always like to start with the number of the issue that has been assigned to me and the topic of what I did. What your branch should be called depends on the repository, always check the (contribution) README before deciding on it. So before we commit our changes, we have to make a new branch.Ĭlick on Branch → New Branch and decide on a name If everything goes as it should, the changed file(s) should show up on the ‘changed files’ sidebar.Ī lot of maintainers don’t like it if you work directly on the main branch, because of possible bugs or code errors.

Luckily there’s a desktop application that can make it easier for you. I know I’m not the only one thinking that, many people have a hard time learning how to use git. Even after 3+ years of coding, I don’t think the CLI and its definitions are all that great. It took me quite some time to get used to the git CLI when I started out.

Larson stated that Twilight Sparkle "would be the kind who'd idolize the great minds of the past." Larson, the writer of Luna Eclipsed, It's About Time, and Magical Mystery Cure, selected the name Star Swirl out of a list of pre-approved locations and names by Hasbro, then added "the Bearded" because it didn't sound "quite old enough". He is first mentioned by Twilight Sparkle in Luna Eclipsed as "the most important conjurer of the pre-classical era." He also appears in the IDW comics and Budge Studios' mobile game Harmony Quest. Star Swirl the Bearded is a male unicorn who is alluded to in various episodes and other media before making his first physical appearance in the season seven finale Shadow Play. ![]() Víctor Hugo Aguilar ( Latin American Spanish) Wojciech Paszkowski ( Polish, S8E16 onwards) Sławomir Grzymkowski ( Polish, S7E25- S7E26) None (Enterplay's unprinted MLP Series 5 Trading Card Fun Packs' card #22) ( S7E24, S7E25, S7E26, and Friendship is Magic comic #53) ( S3E2, S3E13, Legends of Magic comic #6, and Enterplay merchandise) Light gray ( Friendship is Magic comic pages, Friends Forever comic, and FIENDship is Magic comic #5)ĭark gray ( Friendship is Magic comic cover) Pale, light grayish sapphire blue ( Rainbow Rocks and FIENDship is Magic comic #3)īluish gray ( Friends Forever comic and Harmony Quest) Light gray (series, Friendship is Magic comics, FIENDship is Magic comic #5, and Acidfree art print) "Brown" when younger (The Journal of the Two Sisters) Light gray with Arctic bluish gray streaks (series) Very dark gray ( Friendship is Magic comic cover) The Elements of Harmony: My Little Pony Friendship is Magic: The Official Guidebook: Vol.Star Swirl's human counterpart depicted in statue in Star Crossedĭark magenta ( Rainbow Rocks and FIENDship is Magic comic #3)īrilliant gold ( Friendship is Magic comic pages, Friends Forever comic, FIENDship is Magic comic #5, and Harmony Quest) Twilight's Sparkly Sleepover Surprise (2016).Princess Twilight Sparkle and the Forgotten Books of Autumn (2016)Įquestria Girls: Through the Mirror (2013).Princess Cadance and the Spring Hearts Garden (2016).Princess Luna and the Festival of the Winter Moon (2015).Princess Collection: Princess Celestia and the Summer of Royal Waves (2015) Trixie and the Razzle-Dazzle Ruse (2017).Starlight Glimmer and the Secret Suite (2016).Lyra and Bon Bon and the Mares from S.M.I.L.E. ![]() Discord and the Ponyville Players Dramarama (2015).Fluttershy and the Fine Furry Friends Fair (2015).Applejack and the Honest-to-Goodness Switcheroo (2014).Rarity and the Curious Case of Charity (2014).Rainbow Dash and the Daring Do Double Dare (2014).Pinkie Pie and the Rockin' Ponypalooza Party!

Siris hunts down and captures the God King, whose real name is Raidriar.īringing Raidriar to the Vault of Tears, Siris is ready to finally learn the mystery of the Infinity Blade, but the Worker has other ideas. With the Vault finally unsealed, Siris meets the Worker of Secrets, only to learn that another Deathless must take the Worker’s place if he’s to be freed. Siris sacrifices himself each time he unlocks a seal, but is always reborn. He defeats three Blood Sentinels, each of whom guards a seal that unlocks the way to the Worker of Secrets. Fortunately, a mechanical helper named Tel revives Siris in a Phoenix Chamber.Īgain and again, Siris returns to Saranthia. Upon defeating Thane, Siris unlocks a seal, but dies in the process. There he meets Thane, High Lord of the House Ix. Siris heads to Saranthia to find the Vault of Tears, where the Worker of Secrets is imprisoned. Siris’ partner, Isa, is shaken by the realization that the man she followed on a quest to rid the world of Deathless is himself immortal, and leaves to forge her own destiny. The Worker created the Infinity Blade as a weapon that could kill the Deathless and Siris wants to fully understand how the Blade works and its true purpose. The God King-slayer, Siris, having learned that he is in fact a Deathless who used to be known as Ausar, embarks on a quest to find the Worker of Secrets. Since Isa killed him, Siris was able to be resurrected once more. Had the God King used the Infinity Blade to slay Siris, he would have been permanently dead. The death of Saydhi was the final charge the Blade needed to reach its full potency. His deaths have slowly been powering up the Infinity Blade until it reached a point where it could permanently kill any Deathless it struck. The generational Sacrifice of his village has always been Ausar, reborn again and again. He remembers now that he was known long ago as Ausar. Siris awakens in a rebirth chamber and realizes the truth – that he is in fact a Deathless. Isa beats the God King to it, firing a crossbow bolt that kills Siris. The God King reveals himself, takes the Blade, and is about to kill Siris. ![]() Believing he has found another lock for the Infinity Blade to act as key, Siris places the Infinity Blade into a stone pillar. Saydhi then attacks Siris, forcing him to kill her. Siris does just that and, true to her word, Saydhi reveals the location of the Worker of Secrets. Not knowing where the Worker is imprisoned, the two travel to another Deathless, Saydhi, who has an outstanding offer to answer any request for a warrior capable of defeating her minions. At first adversaries, Isa eventually offers to help Siris on his quest to find the location of the Worker of Secrets, who created the Infinity Blade. Hoping to find answers about the Deathless and what they may want, Siris returns to the Dark Citadel at Lantimore, only to learn that the God King may not actually be dead.Īt the Citadel, he encounters an assassin named Isa. ![]() But the elders of Drem’s Maw ask him to leave, fearing that other Deathless will come seeking either the Blade or revenge. Having defeated the God King, Siris returns to his home. But with his dying breath, Zero warns Siris that someone will come looking for the Infinity Blade. Ultimately, Siris is lead into battle against a mechanized warrior, Zero, whom he defeats. This one filled with inanimate God King bodies floating inside tanks. After fighting three immortal Deathless imprisoned in the dungeon, Siris unlocks another hidden room. It’s a key as well, one that opens a secret passage to a dungeon in the Dark Citadel. But in sacrificing a young man each generation to be cut down by the Infinity Blade, the simple farmers of the Citadel’s neighboring villages are spared the God King’s wrath.Īnd so it goes, for generation after generation, until Siris, another member of the sacrificial bloodline, manages to slay the God King and claim the Infinity Blade as his own.Īfter killing the God King, Siris finds the Infinity Blade to be more than a sword. One knight, known as the Sacrifice, is chosen each generation to journey to the heart of the Dark Citadel and battle the Deathless God King. 9/18/2023 0 Comments Odyssey fun world ran down![]() I fully release them from any and all liability.It’s been 16 long years since Bethesda released an original IP, and today, we’re finally getting to venture into their most significant and most ambitious title yet and that’s Starfield.
