Once I was wondering what kinds of birds fly around sync points, so I did some research and compared the bird models to the species that lived in the places where each AC game takes place.

I used iNaturalist and eBird, which helped me compare individual bird species by region and appearance. Photo sources are below in the image. I wanted to put more photos, but Tumblr allows a maximum of 30 images per post.

I have to say that I'm not a bird/animal expert, just an animal enthusiast. I know populations of individual species were very different in the past than they are today.

You are welcome to correct me if I get anything wrong and If you know of any other species that I'm missing, please let me know. 💗

Here is the first model of an eagle/a hawk:

I decided to take screenshots of each bird so I could compare them, but this model actually appeared from AC1 to Liberation.

So here are some screenshots (sorry for the crappy quality):

AC1:

Fun Fact: In AC1 after synchronization, the eagle/hawk disappears permanently. Thankfully I didn't sync all the towers in Kingdom.

AC2:

AC Brotherhood:

AC Revelations:

AC3:

AC Liberation:

AC Regions:

AC1 - Middle East

AC2 and Brotherhood - Italy

AC Revelations - Istanbul, Turkey

AC3 - New York, New York State, US and Boston, Massachusetts, US

AC Liberation - New Orleans, Louisana, US and Yucatán, Mexico

Suggestions for AC1 & Ezio Trilogy:

Common buzzard (Buteo buteo)

This species is most common bird of prey in Eurasia (or has the most observations). It has several morphs.

Long-legged buzzard (Buteo rufinus)

This species has the most observations in Turkey. It can easily be mistaken for a common buzzard.

Suggestions for AC3 & Liberation:

Red-shouldered hawk (Buteo lineatus) - immature

This bird has the most observations in the southeastern part of the USA. The immature individual is more similar to the model because the adult has a more brown or reddish body.

Red-tailed hawk (Buteo jamaicensis)

The most common bird of prey in North America, which is also divided into subspecies and morphs.

Bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) - immature

Juvenile bald eagles have similar coloration to the model, as adult plumage coloration appears at less than four years of age.

There is another model of the eagle/hawk from AC4:

It's the same model, only the texture is now different.

AC4 Screenshots:

AC4 Regions:

Caribbean - Cuba, Jamaica, Haiti, The Bahamas...

Florida, US

Suggestion:

Red-tailed hawk (Buteo jamaicensis)

This species most closely resembles the model and also lives in the Caribbean Islands.

And now it's another retextured model from AC Rogue:

AC Rogue Screenshots:

AC Rogue Regions:

North Atlantic

Nova Scotia, Canada

Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada

New York, New York State, US

Suggestion:

Bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus)

It's obvious, isn't it? :) Also bald eagle appeared in AC3 Cinematic Trailer.

Next thing is that AC Rogue has actually two models of the eagle (couldn't find this model in files). The second eagle model appears only in the intro and outro of the game and it's more realistic and detailed.

Despite that, AC Rogue ended in Paris, where bald eagles do not occur there. It's possible Shay owns one that flies with him (my new headcanon!).

Unfortunately, I couldn't find the eagle model in the files in AC Unity as well, so I don't have a showcase.

So here are only screenshots:

It's a new model this time and it looks a little more realistic, but is still low-poly.

AC Unity Regions:

France - Paris, Versailles and Saint-Denis

Suggestion:

Golden eagle (Aquila chrysaetos)

This eagle most closely resembles the model, even though golden eagles are mostly common in mountainous areas. Also it appeared in one of AC Unity Cinematic Trailers.

AC Syndicate is one of the AC games that doesn't have bird of prey on the sync point. Instead they have the rooks (Corvus frugilegus) in London.

Again, I couldn't find the model in the files, but according to the screenshot, the model is more low-poly than the first model of the eagle/hawk.

Bonus: Playable Birds

Since AC Origins, the protagonists have bird companions, thanks to which we can find targets and explore area more easily.

Also the developers confirmed species of them:

Senu - Bonelli's eagle (Aquila fasciata)

Ikaros - Golden eagle (Aquila chrysaetos)

Sýnin - Common raven (Corvus corax)

Enkidu - Eastern imperial eagle (Aquila heliaca)

Hello! first time asker! I've only just recently got back into AC and you're pretty much the only AC blog I've followed so far (after reading your fantastic Eagle of Alamut fic) but the thing that happened to me seems very much something you'd enjoy.

Which is the Altair Jumpscare I got

to preface, I'm an ad blocker extraordinaire and put that on pretty much everything - except my mobile games. But even so, with how much i adblock the ads i DO get are very generic with very generic characters.

EXCEPT FOR ONE BIZARRE AD

A Tap-Away ad that for some inexplicable reason had Altair in it where he waved his arms like a wacky inflatable tube man and was then promptly sucked into the tapaway cube.

I was so caught off guard that i didn't nab a screenshot and I have been trying and failing to get him to show up again after 3 weeks of doing so much more Wordscape than I've ever had before to no avail😭

But it did spawn the idea of Desmond, with a burner/stolen phone, playing a mobile game and getting that Altair Jumpscare like i did which, with some digging by Rebecca because why the hell is he in an ad??? find a breach in Abstergo's database which they can exploit.

Welcome to the fandom! I hope you enjoy your stay (don’t mind the missing exit).

Aaahhh, Wordscape. I used to play you but then you keep interrupting my time with ads so I deleted you… like all the others who dared to give me ads that takes majority of the screen.

Ngl, I would have tried that game because it dared to show Altaïr to me. Then promptly delete it after a few hours XD

Alright, for this one, we’ll set it during AC2. He’s not that close to anybody yet so he sorta kinda stole Lucy’s burner phone while she was looking.

He always had a knack for stealing, probably the only thing that didn’t make William Miles say ‘again’ more than five times.

It only became so much easier when he started reliving Ezio’s memories.

The Bleeding Effect, right?

That’s what Lucy called it.

Regardless, Desmond figured it would be alright to play it anyway. It had a cell service and he always returned it to Lucy’s bag before she notices anyway.

It was during one of his free time (Rebecca said the Animus was acting fussy for some reason), he figured he can play one more level before they tell him to go back in.

The level wasn’t anything new, kinda funny that one of the words was ‘imprison’ and he got a bonus for trying out ‘prim’ (primo was a no go though and it took a moment before Desmond realized it was because it wasn’t English, fuck, was this the Bleeding Effect as well?. Just when he cleared it, the phone let out a loud static sound.

Which was weird because (1) the game’s audio was set to mute and (2) the phone itself was set to full silent with 0 volume on any kind of media.

They all turned to stare at him and he would have apologized, had he not heard someone shout his name coming from the phone.

“Desmond!”

It was Altaïr.

It could only be Altaïr.

The voice was the same voice he heard back in the Animus.

And he shouting at Desmond, staring at the screen as he slammed one hand against…

The screen?

Golden wisps wrapped around him, dragging him to the darkness behind him as he shouted, “Desmond! Find us! We’re-”

The ‘ad’ disappeared.

And Desmond was now staring at the next level.

He could clearly see one of the words was already filled out for some reason.

‘Breach’.

“Desmond…”

“Sorry, Lucy.” He handed the phone to Lucy as he said, “I was just playing ‘cause I was bored.”

Before Lucy could grab it, he pulled it back and pressed it over his chest as he asked, “Did you guys hear Altaïr too?”

“We heard him but, more importantly, Desmond…” Rebecca glanced at Lucy before she said, “None of us should have any phones at all. Abstergo could track us.”

“It’s not mine!” Lucy immediately said, taking a step back as she said, “I don’t know why you think that’s my phone, Desmond.”

“What?” Desmond blinked, “But… I took this from your bag…”

“Shit.” Rebecca’s eyes widened as she realized, “Did… Did Abstergo plant that in your bag, Lucy?”

“What?” Lucy turned to stare at Rebecca.

“That’s not possible. We’re the ones who brought that bag here, remember?” Shaun reminded Rebecca, “And we’re absolutely sure we didn’t put that phone there.”

“Then… who did?” Rebecca frowned as she mumbled.

“We need to get out of here.” Shaun said, “Desmond, turn that phone off and give it to Rebecca. She’ll check it.”

“Wait-”

“We don’t have to tell Bill about this.” Shaun said, “That phone could have easily given Abstergo our location. We need to move.”

Lucy’s eyes widened when Desmond gave the phone to Rebecca and she said, “We need to destroy it then. To keep us safe!”

“What? No!” Desmond stepped forward to cover Rebecca.

No.

To cover the phone.

“Altaïr just used it to contact me. We need to know how it was able to do that.”

“It’s a risk but he’s right, that Altaïr could have just as easily been a trap but we need to be sure.” Shaun was already taking down the papers on his corkboard as he said, “Come on, Lucy, let’s pack as quickly as we can. We can contact Bill on the move.”

Desmond frowned.

Lucy looked pale.

Was she afraid that Abstergo already knew their connection.

“Hey.” Desmond placed a hand on her shoulder, feeling her freeze. He smiled at her as he said, “We’ll be fine.”

His smile grew as he said, “I’ll kill any Templar coming our way, okay?”

#was the phone something that appeared due to the change of calculations?#was it lucy’s actual secret phone?#shrug #it is connected to abstergo’s network though #what is altaïr though?#shrugs again #he did say ‘we’#so you know he’s not the only one trying to contact desmond XD #assassin's creed #desmond miles #altaïr ibn la'ahad #ask and answer #teecup writes/has a plot #fic idea: assassin's creed #lucy stillman #rebecca crane #shaun hastings

16-22 Apr | Fanzine #1 - Monotone

SAS

You will have until end of Monday 22nd to work on completing your first fanzine. Fanzine #1 will be 12 pages long, designed with a monotone treatment, and based on one of the 10 topics.

TASK 1 PDP: Open your PDP. Spend 5-10 minutes to write down which of the 10 topics you would like to base Fanzine #1 on - and which specific subtopic will you focus on (refer to our collective list.) How do you plan to ensure that you apply a monotone treatment to Fanzine #1?

TASK 2 FLATPLAN: Using the provided flatplanning document in Adobe Illustrator, you will need to create thumbnail sketches to plan out the 12 pages of your first fanzine. Add your flatplan to your Supporting Document, with annotations.

If you wish to do more pages, they must be multiples of 4 (so 16 or 20). Remember, a fanzine is not a magazine. It does not need to follow conventions, and can be more free. A fanzine does not need to be crammed full of information.

TASK 3 GATHERING ASSETS: Research and gather the following assets based on your chosen topic and include them in your Supporting Document. All assets should be grouped and labelled.

Imagery - copyright-free/your own primary images/ from secondary sources if credited. Can also be hand-drawn illustrations and scanned.

Text - writing regarding your theme - you can be creative and write stories, poetry, recipes, diaries etc, or purely information. There is no set word count. Text can be from secondary sources if quoted and credited.

TASK 4 MAKE: When you are ready to, you can start making your first fanzine. In Adobe InDesign, use the following settings:

File Name: Fanzine 1 - (topic name here)

Width: 148mm Height: 210mm

Pages: 12 - (more can be added later if needed)

Start Page #: 1

Facing Pages should be ticked

Columns: 2

Column Gutter: 5mm

Margins: 10mm all round

Bleed: 5mm all round

Things to remember…

Images should be CMYK

All images should be converted from RGB to CMYK in Photoshop. If you notice a discrepancy between colours, this is probably why. Refer to our monotone tutorial for how to do this.

File management

Management of your files is an aspect you will be graded on, so please make sure you save all assets for this fanzine within one folder.

Screenshots

Don’t forget to screenshot! Please document key stages of development when creating your fanzine by pasting screenshots in your Supporting Document. Remember, screenshots should always be annotated in terms of what you did. Screenshots can be a pain to remember, but they should help illustrate your making process, and a critical part of evidence for the AC2 Problem Solving and AC3 Technical Skills grading criterias.

EXTENSION: If you have finished your Fanzine #1, you can use this template to create a mockup of your fanzine's front cover and an inside double spread. Save your 2+ final images as JPGs and add to your Supporting Document.

Assetto Corsa graphics modding, by RPG.

Graphics, shaders and weather modifications are very common within many gaming communities; whether it be the likes of GTAV and its CFX.re counterpart FiveM, or Skyrim with its multiple different Reshade LUT packs.

The main thing that spiked my interest in Assetto Corsa in recent weeks was that I couldn't continue creating content within FiveM, the TOS were changed and that disallowed the use of branded content (which made FiveM distinctive, and made that sensible divide between GTAO's vanilla look and the sometimes very different approach to photorealism in FiveM.

Assetto Corsa is good option for virtual/game cinematography, it features a good in-game camera system (which makes it easier to map out routes for where the camera will go) and works well alongside other third-party plugins like Reshade and Sol. A growing community in AC, the "cutup" servers, means that Assetto Corsa will possibly only get even more popular; regardless of if and when they decide to release AC2.

Presets, custom LUTs and skyboxes are readily available; Sol (a weather planner which also provides the ability for custom weather) is a really nice free addition to Content Manager's already good Pure settings in its Custom Shaders Patch. Also, you can find communities within Assetto Corsa who solely focus on modding the game graphically; to make it appear both photorealistic and to try and push the boundaries between virtual and real by using AI mapping.

Many vehicle modifications are free, and the vast majority are extremely high quality renders that are 1:1 with their real life counterparts. Custom content for these cars is also readily available, to add just that little bit more detail into any specifics of the car in question.

Conclusively, cinematics or screenshots should be a breeze on Assetto Corsa; there's techniques to change camera settings from AC's binaries so that you can have a much freer-flowing camera.
