If you just want to get to the point of the topic ignore my ranting part in grey/itallics and move to the bolded dark blue.

 

Due to request I received when I released the Kobeverse for TEW 2008, I'm removing all of the disguising filters that I had on the Kobeverse worker pics on previous iterations of the data. I'd previously put filters on the worker pictures because my picture pack (1500+ cuts I've done over the past 2 years) is made up of people on facebook, the prison system, porn stars, random people on google image search, and every single place on the internet you can think of that you would go looking for random worker pictures. :) It just seemed to me that in an effort to avoid pissing anyone off who might not want to be in the picture pack I should just disguise all of the images. However, enough people have pointed out that all those are public forums so it isn't really an invasion of privacy. Besides, if you see yourself in the pack and don't want to be, just ask and I'll remove you. ^_^

 

So now I have all these pictures of workers and they are as they are etc... BUT I don't want anyone famous in the data because I think it breaks immersion if you're supposed to be some jobber from California etc. only he looks like Tom Cruise. :o

 

Okay, so that said the purpose of this thread in a nutshell is to point out any famous/recognizable faces in the Kobeverse worker picture pack. For anyone willing/interested in making the mod better, just download the picture pack (link at bottom of the post) and go through the picture pack looking for people you recognize. If you see a famous face then either send me a PM or post in this topic with the corresponding picture name, and who it is in real life. I will then remove that picture from the pack and replace it with someone generic/less famous. :) The reason I'm doing this is because I think it's easier to get immersed in a mod when you're playing with fictional characters and you aren't associating them with some celebrity etc.

 

Side Note:

 

Some of the pictures are of pornstars/convicts/insert social undesirable here. I'd have stayed away from adding them, but they have some of the largest picture repositories. :o I tried not to use anyone that to my knowledge is "famous", but I only know of Jenna Jameson, Tera Patrick and like 5 other adult film stars by name. And I wouldn't know a famous criminal if he/she was about to rob/murder me. -_-

 

So... if I did use someone most people would know then just point it out to me. If you don't want the forum to know that you recognize "insert whoever here" then just send me a PM instead of posting in the topic. I won't say anything. :D

 

But yeah, it's really important to me that I get any potentially famous faces out of the pack before I release the data. So the more people that could look through it the better. I tried to get rid of everyone famous I knew of, but I'm sure there are exceptions. The more people that look at the pack the more eyes I can get on it and the faster I can replace the worker picture with one of my 500 or so facebook cuts (will be released with final data) that I know for a fact are the antithesis to celebritydom. :)

 

DISCLAIMER:

 

Kobeverse has no nudity in it (kids use this forum. :p) but there are some pictures with mosaics in them like so:

which are for some promotions that are the Kobeverse equivalent of the Naked Women's Wrestling League (NWWL). If that bothers you don't download the pack. :o

P.S.

 

There are probably around 90 pictures out of the 1500 or so pictures in the pack that I didn't cut. I grabbed them back in 2007 during the early stages of my mod from some real world data that had future worker pictures in it back before I ever knew Kobeverse would get this big. I'd go through and pull them out now since I have more than enough pictures to replace them, but I don't know which ones they are. :o

 

If you happen to be the cutter of those pics and recognize them + want me to remove them then let me know what they are and I'll get rid of them. ^_^

Daniel Hudson is clearly Topher Grace. I recognize some others, but... don't want to say from where. Also, Ken Union appears to be a photoshopped Tom Cruise.

 

What's the deal with 42 pictures of "Jennifer Wilde"? Cut 35 of them and streamline the pack.

 

EDIT: Selphie Lockheart is the one from Sky Sports News... I forget the name

Send me a PM with any you know but don't want to post in the topic, if you don't mind. ^_^

 

Thanks for the Union/Hudson ones.

 

As for streamlining the pack, I intend to release a light version without anything but the essential alts when I put out the final data. Since I haven't renamed the pics etc. I haven't done a version with chopped alts yet, though.

 

As for the Selphie/Summer twins I'm kind of torn on them. That's Melissa Therieau (news anchor) that you're referring to, and it's the only picture in the pack I recognized that I left intentionally. She's just literally a perfect fit for the worker I had in mind. I'll probably dump it by the final version but kept her in the short term.

The ones I know but don't want to post about are from porn. Unlike a guy like Topher Grace, I expect I'm in the minority about recognising them. They're probably fine to include in your pack.

 

Okay, cool. :) I just don't want it to be someone mainstream is all. As long as they aren't "famous" pornstars I guess it's okay. Thanks btw. :D

I know this was not meant to be funny but I laughed when I read the bolded sections. My cousin is in prison, I wonder if he is in your pic pack....:D

So can I safely assume no one has noticed anyone else recognizable? :)

 

P.S. Thanks Dynamo.

 

I want to get rid of all the "recognizable" faces so I can be done with picture cutting/re-assigning and then finish worker bios, locations and title lineages. The rest of the database is at this point complete and ready for TEW 2010 conversion. ^_^

That isn't Taryn Terrell; Taryn has brown eyes, she has blue, and Taryn's never done porn only Playboy. If you Google Taryn, you'll see she looks nothing like that.

 

Thanks. The lack of anyone else speculating (aside from a few PMs on pornstars) makes me think I'm as close to my generic worker ideal as I'm going to get. Will bring this topic over to TEW 2010's mods forum tonight anyway though in order to get a clearer picture. ^_^
