MNOGII

Someone should make MNOGII playable again (The preceding unsigned comment was made by Krone615)

While that would be wonderful to have, I don't know of any active member with the resources available to fix MNOLG2, and there are plenty of people who have tried and/or succeeded in doing so. We just weren't one of them.

Perhaps someone can provide a link to a working copy. --External Image Owner (talk|contribs)

The Biomedia project (here) has some. The streaming version doesn't work, but I tried the "Built in save" download version, ran the Windows launcher, and it seems to work. I know for a fact their other games work as well. They have all sorts of great things on that site. Its the second most awesome website ever (second only to BS01 :D) --~Toanicky 23:03, 19 December 2012 (PST)


MNOG Concepts

I'm going to ask about something a bit obscure, but hoping that someone could clear this up nonetheless. It's about the MNOLG storyboards that Templar posted. I could swear that one of those posts is missing now (specifically, about the Po-Koro chap.); and it is not even archived here on Biosector01, either.

To reinforce my observation, I even have a snippet of that post which I had saved at one point:

"That first link is an unused scene of a Tohunga making infected Kohli balls, the Comets that were being sold in the Po-Koro bazaar. After helping Pohatu destroy the Nui-Jaga nest, Takua was supposed to find a clue and discover a sweat shop of mind-controlled captives he sets free.

The idea was once floated about of a 7th secret Tohungan tribe, worshipers of the cult of Makuta that insidiously undermined the efforts of the Toa to awake Mata Nui. Originally the Kohli ball merchant was supposed to be one of their agents. This was eventually scrapped by LEGO, and so the real identity of the merchant and his motives remain a mystery..."

Do you remember Templar posting the storyboard that contained the above? Maybe I am not alone in noticing this? Thanks BiomechanicalIz (talk) 02:01, 12 February 2014 (CET)


Need Help

Hey I just joined, but my username did not turn out the way I wanted, how can I change my username?--Andre31kbrick193 (talk) 00:03, 20 September 2015 (CEST)

Ask a staff member! I happen to be one. What would you like your username to actually be? -- Dorek Talk External Image 01:29, 20 September 2015 (CEST)


Weapon/Tool Organization

Hey everyone! Harsulins Ghost here with some thoughts and questions. I was looking at the Articles for Deletion and Creation pages, and voted on a couple of the issues currently active, "Tuma's Sword" and "Toa Hagah Spears," and couldn't help but think that maybe some major organization is in order for weapon and tool pages. Because weapons don't, in general, have a lot of information on them, many weapons don't seem to deserve their own page, but they have to go somewhere, so most weapons do have pages for themselves. However, I don't think this is the best way to do it. Intelligence4 suggested in the "Toa Hagah Spear" debate, that we simply put weapon info on the page for the character who wields it, which I am inclined to agree with, except that I also believe we should make pages with somewhat generalized subjects like "Toa Tools" so that users can search around for tools in categories. What do you guys think?--Harsulin's Ghost (talk) 23:45, 22 June 2017 (CET)

Well it looks like this section isn't really needed, as this subject is being dealt with. How do get rid of this section properly.--Harsulin's Ghost (talk) 02:27, 19 July 2017 (CET)

Mask of Mutation Image

Back when the Mask of Mutation was first canonized, I thought we agreed not to use the image of Miserix's head because we don't know where the mask begins and ends. Has something changed since then? --Vartemp Talk 13:28, 4 October 2017 (UTC)

No idea, to be honest. I don't suppose it matters much? On the one hand it's hardly "mask-like", on the other hand, it's all we've got. I'm okay with it being how it is. -- Dorek Talk External Image 21:23, 4 October 2017 (UTC)
Also, it is noted in the Bearers subsection that Miserix wears a shape-shifted version of the mask.— SurelNuva (Talk) 22:00, 4 October 2017 (UTC)

All These Character Images

I just wanted to mention that it seems like the comic images that we always use for character pages might not be the best representations of those characters. Some comic images are great, like enlarged Takanuva, but others are absolutely terrible, like basically every picture of Gali. I know that we have set images elsewhere on all these pages, but it seems like the sets often represent the characters much better. Has anybody else ever felt this way?

If it's a truly terrible image, I don't mind replacing it, but I actually like those Gali images, so it's sort of personal preference at that point =P. -- Dorek Talk External Image 04:14, 7 November 2017 (UTC)


HS01

I'm just curious, does anyone besides my still use HS01? "On the bounce and on the numbers, boys!!" ~Prof. Srlojohn 20:55, 12 March 2019 (UTC)

I sometimes browse it. Master Inika (Talk) 21:38, 12 March 2019 (UTC)
Yeah, so do I. Bionicle IS better than HF, but they both have their place, and i enjoy both, (plus a few crossovers). That and HS01 has MP3's of ♫Hero Factory FM!!♫ Mak MegaHertz, Signing off, "On the bounce and on the numbers, boys!!" ~Prof. Srlojohn 13:44, 13 March 2019 (UTC)
Considering how hard I fought to get it back, you bet I still use it! But I don't edit it much, clearly. -- Dorek Talk External Image 19:08, 17 March 2019 (UTC)


skins

Does anyone know how to get any of the skins from the skinning age, on the BioSector01:about page? Reign of shadows looks really cool. "On the bounce and on the numbers, boys!!" ~Prof. Srlojohn 12:48, 19 March 2019 (UTC)

They're not installed anymore, but new skins are on the agenda! First we're working on a dark mode. You can see what we have so far by going to Special:Preferences, selecting Refreshed under the Appearance tab, then setting the Theme to EncyclopediaDark. -- Morris the Mata Nui Cow (talk) 15:02, 19 March 2019 (UTC)
Okay, thanks!! will the old ones ever be re implemented? "On the bounce and on the numbers, boys!!" ~Prof. Srlojohn 17:23, 19 March 2019 (UTC)
P.S. I like the 404 error page, it came up when i clicked on of the old skin previews, and Hafu fits it perfectly! who designed it?
Woah, I just looked at the 404 page myself for the first time. Love it!! —Planetperson 03:08, 20 March 2019 (UTC)
I'm not sure if we'll reimplement them or not. If we do, it won't be for a while. And I made the 404 page. Glad you like it! -- Morris the Mata Nui Cow (talk) 22:11, 20 March 2019 (UTC)
Whoops, sorry i meant Taipu. Poor guy, it's been 18 years and he still hasn't lived that mask mix-up down. "On the bounce and on the numbers, boys!!" ~Prof. Srlojohn 12:49, 21 March 2019 (UTC)


Other wikis

In was reminded today why i use BS01. I was looking for a walkthrough for the Maze of Shadows game, and i had to try the OTHER wiki. I found this page.

https://bionicle.fandom.com/wiki/BIONICLE:_Maze_of_Shadows

Read the triva, and it will remind you why you are here. "LBX battle on!!!" ~Prof. Srlojohn 09:50, 23 March 2019 (UTC)


Bionicle day

I'm asking this here because I'm not sure where else to put it.

What exactly is Bionicle day, and where is it taking place?

"I wanted show that humans are not gods, nor are we monsters, i wanted people to think about what it means to be human" -Lex ~Prof. Srlojohn 11:53, 6 August 2019 (UTC)

810NICLE Day is a day that'll have a lot of online Bionicle events. The main event is a livestream that'll run from about 4-7 PM EDT on YouTube. The full list of events and times (all subject to change) is available here. When links to the events become available, they'll be added to the schedule, so you can click on events to visit relevant social media posts, watch livestreams, etc. -- Morris the Mata Nui Cow (talk) 16:39, 6 August 2019 (UTC)
Okay cool. But will it just be social media and youtube? "I wanted show that humans are not gods, nor are we monsters, i wanted people to think about what it means to be human" -Lex ~Prof. Srlojohn 12:12, 7 August 2019 (UTC)
Pretty much. There won't be events directly on the wiki itself. -- Morris the Mata Nui Cow (talk) 18:29, 8 August 2019 (UTC)
Oh, okay. *sighs* too bad for me. "I wanted show that humans are not gods, nor are we monsters, i wanted people to think about what it means to be human" -Lex ~Prof. Srlojohn 00:37, 9 August 2019 (UTC)

staff numbers

So, I'm curious, how many of the staff in the staff list are still active? Some like Cholie I haven't seen since the days of the podcast. "I wanted show that humans are not gods, nor are we monsters, i wanted people to think about what it means to be human" -Lex ~Prof. Srlojohn 14:08, 12 August 2019 (UTC)

Anybody who's listed as green or yellow are people I've talked to at least fairly recently. Cholie's my emotional support dog, so I'll never get rid of him. -- Dorek Talk External Image
okay. Thanks. And of course Cholie never goes! "I wanted show that humans are not gods, nor are we monsters, i wanted people to think about what it means to be human" -Lex ~Prof. Srlojohn 12:02, 13 August 2019 (UTC)


HS01 updates

Will HS01 get updated to the new version of Mediawiki? Because it could really use an update. "I wanted show that humans are not gods, nor are we monsters, i wanted people to think about what it means to be human" -Lex ~Prof. Srlojohn 19:33, 16 August 2019 (UTC)
