When i go to contribute page, I see the kits that i have that are missing instructions in the database. but for the looks of it, the page only shows first 15. every time I scan a new one and add it to the database, I see a new kit appearing in the page. It will help a lot if we can see the complete list and be able to pick several ones in one go (for example if you do not have them all in the same room)..... please correct the page to show them all. maybe a limit of 3000 or something, like when you see your stash, etc. that will not be a problem for most of us 😉 . if the query in the database makes that page slow, and you want to keep it fast for those that only want to add new kits, materials, tools etc, then show the 15 it does now, and add a button to show the rest for those who need it.

At the contribute page there is a list of Missing Instruction sheets. Would it be possible to have a button there that shows all current items in your stash missing the instruction sheets, like a "show all"? In my case some listed in the current format are temporary unavailable like being in storage, a button as suggested might yield some entries requiring a manual to be uploaded since they would be available to me at the time. Not to mention uploading of manuals should get some more active encouragement since one of the displayed kits in my list missing a manual had 63 members having it in their stash and nobody uploaded it. I am targeting to do 1 a day but soon I will be running out of easy targets because I have no overview of missing manuals that are in my stash, only the ones provided in the list under the contribute tag. Thank you for considering.

Hello,
When on an item page, if this item has been used in a lot of project, only a limited amount of projects are displayed (9-10). Could we add a "Show all projects" or "All projects" button like we have for other parts of any item page?
Thanks in advance.

Many Airfix quick build products are listed here, which are not truly scale models but "Lego"-esque.

What about products from Cobi who offer many more, and arguably better/more relevant, products than Airfix?

What is the "truly scale model"? As technology improves, toys for kids are getting better details than old traditional scale model kits. The border is so personal and subjective. You may represent the main audience of this site, but you can also respect the new hobbyists, too. It's a keen issue.
Some people may upload a few off-topic kits to this site. I guess that they may leave soon because there are better wiki pages for their specific brands.

I have a question about some type of reboxed kit.

When another maker reboxes the original kit, they should use the same mold and produce the same runner as the original. However, the decals don't need to be the same. In the recent Academy reboxed kits, which originated from Zvezda, Academy includes very similar but different decals made in Korea.

- The same decal parts and the same decal instructions
- Moved each decal part for better productivity.
- Different decal printers with different characteristics, such as thickness, flexibility, adhesion strength, activation time, and color of the release paper.

If it is a game, it is not a remake game, but a remastered game.

When I added new kits, I used "Reboxed/Changed decals" instead of "Reboxed/Changed box only." I think neither of them are clear for the Academy cases. I would say that the new decals are significantly better than the old Zvezda decals, but they are fundamentally the same shaped and colored decals. Only workability is different. What do you think about the categories?

When editing a color there is a green button "Pick color from screen" that either does not work or it works in a way I don't understand. Currently I use Instant Eyedropper but the output cannot be pasted directly in the 3 RGB fields but I have to do that manually. Output generated is 61, 74, 48 . So comma seperated with a space. Also has option for TAB separated and ENTER separated. None work to fill in the 3 RGB fields with 1 click. Could you please make the green button "Pick color from screen" functional or change the input so it accepts one of the formats generated by Instant Eyedropper. Thank you for help.

personal comments added to kits can only be added when you have them in stash, on order etc, but not in wishlist. a comment can be added moving the item to stash, but then it is not visible when moved back to wishlist. when back to stash, on order etc, the comment appears again. I understand that in whishlist the state may not make much sense, but then the comments should be made available when in wishlist status. and it will be great if the comments are visible when looking at wishlist/on order/stash views. for example i can have several items in wishlist, and add comments about which is is more interesting or addecuate, but currently I can only see them when i enter the details of each kit. this could be something that is enabled disabled for each user since many people may not use the personal comments.

it will be also interesting to see the personal comments in the Project inventory. unless the comments are really long, there should be space to see it there. if the comment is too long, maybe a + sign to show those longer than what should fit left of "Stash 1×|Projects 1×"

Hi, thanks a lot for your great website, so wonderful for our hobby!
So a suggestion about paints:
Would be nice to be able to make difference between old and new reference of Vallejo paints. There's now new Game / Model and Model Air with new formula but same reference. I got a lot of "double" (one old, one new) to make some test. Would be great to add maybe a "N" to notice it's "new" ones and/or "O" for "old reference" 🙂

I’m confused about spammer reporting.
Someone reported an obvious spammer so I went to the vote page and I definitely clicked on ‘YES, this is a spammer’.
Then it showed:
1 or more users said this is OK
1 or more users said this is a Spammer.
Which makes it look like my vote was registered as ‘Not a spammer’.
What’s going on?


Incidentally – minor issue. ‘1 ore more…’ should read ‘1 or more...’

thx!

This was from a time when your vote was not public.

This message was also intended for people to "think" before blindly voting.

if you see 6 users say it is a spammer and 0 have not, some people might vote blindly.

When it states there was one user saying it is not a spammer (although that is not true) people would actually go to the profile and check.

It works the moment more people voted, but indeed not for the first voter.

Let me check

Some multi-kit reboxings have an older kit mated with new-tool kit. Here is an example (the Opel Blitz was a new tooling):
HS-129 and Kfz. 305 3 Tons Truck (Supermodel 10-502, 1:48)

10-502
 


Would it be possible to have a separate entry in the History to indicate this ? It's more accurate, but it would also allow further reboxings of the new-tool kit to be accurately connected. In this case, the Opel Blitz kit was later reboxed by Italeri and Tamiya:
Kfz. 305 3 ton. Truck (Italeri 6606, 1:48)
3-ton 4x2 Cargo Truck Kfz. 305 (Tamiya 89782, 1:48)

The kit "Death Star II & Star Destroyer" the scale is correctly recorded as "1:2700000" but it displays as "1:27000" which is misleading.

In the "Add missing data" section of SCM Contributor Page maybe add a stand-out reminder/request to search the database for your item before adding it? There are a lot of incorrect duplicate entries in the database, probably because people simply don't check first to see if their item already exists before they proceed to add it. Having such a reminder/request could help cut down on the quantity of duplicate items added.

I don't know why, but many of the photos I had in my albums in portrait position are now rotated and displayed in landscape position.

Strange enough, when I go to the Advanced options, the thumbnails on the left that should show the photos portraited in the album, display the photos the right way, they were initially.

In other words, this left thumbnail is not coherent with what the album is now presenting, which further complicates the arrangement and chosing from the remaining 3 thumbnails presented on the right side becouse none present the the correct initial positioning.

Maybe instead of showing more 3 thumbnails on the right, a clockwise or a conterclokwise rotation button, would be easier to manage and should save some space ? 🤔

Wherever you are on the site, via search, someone else their project, color database, newsfeed you can from there easily add items to your wishlisht/stash/project.

Most of the things you ask is 100% duplication of existing features but just from within the "project page". Not saying they don't make sense, but first try to get used to the system. As you are new, you likely only have uncovered 20% of the features.

eg.

if you find an interesting project Panavia Tornado IDS | Project by TimV (1:32) from there you can add all the stuff you want/need. There is no need to have a search projects from within your project

I'm curious about this feature. I have a couple of time-lapse videos of builds that it would be nice to add to the project album. I had tried converting one to an animated gif but now I see it was deliberate that you don't support that. I had thought about uploading the videos to YouTube and adding them as a comment on the album but is there a nicer way to integrate videos into an album? Or perhaps a separate video section on a project would be more suitable? I'd be interested to hear what other people think.

When posting a comment to an album, the text box is aligned with the other comments, but my own profile picture is not displayed, which can give the impression that the reply is to the last comment.

What's worse is that when the comment is posted, the whole thing including my profile picture is aligned with the text above, further reinforcing the impression that this is a "sub-reply" to the last comment. Refreshing the page makes it display normally.

I was wondering if it's possible to add dates when entering a new model into your 'stash' and 'completed' sections. It would be very helpful to have these dates included in the export file as well.

This would allow me to track my progress and identify trends in my modeling activity over time. For example, I could easily see how many models I've built in a particular month or year, or identify periods of increased or decreased activity.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

When you create a project for a build, there are fields there for entering started and finished dates and the time spent.

Hi Augie,

I apologize for not being clear in my previous request.

I'm suggesting a feature where the system automatically adds the date when I add a new kit to my 'stash' or when I mark a kit as 'completed'. I would also like to see this date field included in the export files for both the 'stash' and 'completed' lists.
 21 January, 10:52
scalemates
you can already add the date of purchase for each kit. When you don't add a date you will see when you added that item to your stash.

Dates like when it was started/completed is handled by the actual Projects like Augie said.

(You can buy a specific kit only once, but you can have it part of several projects. Eg. a decalsheet with several options. Or a kit with several models)

Exporting data as part of CSV is a good idea

Anyone, (not 100% sure where I should have posted this)

Can you Contribute your own photos you have taken (say of a ship) - as a gallery article which is linked to a topic or can you only link 'urls'?

I wanted to add a photo as a walkaround /gallery - I am sure you use to be able to do it so these photos could be seen when you went review a topic page I thought the contribute page alluded to the fact that you still can via an album page but I think I may have misunderstood the wording. All this does is make it show up in newsfeed.

I am sure in the past people would upload their visits to dockyards, museums etc. Maybe Tim has to stop this for some reason.

Warning: Do not use this feature to add links to sites like Photobucket/Forums/Photo sharing sites... This feature is only for full blown articles on modeling magazines like Hyperscale, ARC,... . If you want to add individual pictures you can do that by uploading pictures in the "Photoalbum" section. In case of any doubt, a ask if it is ok. If your site is not yet included, give a short message to the webmaster and he will do some preparation work.
 30 January, 09:09
scalemates
(external) Gallery articles = Built models only
(external) Walkarounds = Real stuff in 1:1

So adding Walkarounds to the Gallery section = no go

if you want to add items to the walkaround section:

There are dozens of walkarounds sites where you can submit pictures. Linking relevant walkarounds on external sites is 100% the aim.

=> A hug amount of traffic for people coming in, downloading GB's of data and go away again.

Scalemates is not going in that direction or trying to compete.

If you do have a photoalbum with some of your own reference pictures linked to a project that is fine (not pushed, but Ok if you keep it reasonable)

- "besitzt diesen Artikel" message was added 1 day after the actual kit was added to the stash.
- The original add to kit message is still there, so there are 2 messages

Data Suggestion or Feature Request?

SCM Search: River monitor Bratianu-class

However when you select it as a topic

SCM Topic: River monitor Bratianu-class

Its empty

I think this happens to kits whose only entry in Scalemates is as part of a multitopic (and its name is not used in the main topic field)

I believe if I was to switch out R35 Renault in the main topic field with River monitor Bratianu-class - it would display in the topic

However this would only be quick fix as everyone would need to know to do this and what if you have 2 topics which only have single entries - which one would you pick?

Is there a way to manage photo albums like you manage photos, that is to say to be able to move them around to arrange them as you want?
All comments (5) » 16 January, 06:45
bughunter
To avoid the albums are no more noticed in the huge amount of models you should add them to projects accordingly. With the kits linked to the projects too your albums and projects are shown below a kit and will be much more prominent in future.
To find an album or project you have always the filter criteria on the right so sorting of albums is not really needed.
3  18 January, 13:41
scalemates
Collections and projects is 100% the way to go!

And while it is not a problem when people do it, Scalemates Album features are designed for 1 Album belonging to a specific project (1 model with aftermarket sets etc) and less for a collection of single photo's of different kits

1  18 January, 16:55
Bruce Leyland-Jones » Feature requests
A basic How To... would be very useful.
For example, it appears I've been asked to list kits in Collections, rather than list them as Inventory for a Project. However, whilst it is fairly simple to create a list, there's no obvious way to add kits to that collection.
16 January, 23:33
bughunter
I do not understand your request.
A collection is on Scalemates something different. Once enabled in the profile you can add a project to a collection. So you can have for example some projects to build a Pfalz aircraft - A collection "Pfalz" contain then all Pfalz projects. The advantage is that a project can be member of multiple collections, in this case a Pfalz biplane project could be member of another collection "Biplanes" at the same time. See my profile for more examples.
A project contain all the kits, accessories, decals and so on to build one model.

But the link to both shops lead to the product site of a "Tamiya Paint Marker" not to an M7.

Don't know if this the only false link, just want to let you know.

I uploaded a series of pictures in three different albums. All of them keep a broken image icon in the "manage" field, so I had to guess which one to put up as cover photo of the album. For the rest they're perfectly visible in the album. It's over 30 minutes now, but the icon is not getting replaced. Here's the Himars album. I now added one single image and that one is also broken.

Hello Scalemates,
I have had a PM from Eddy Mann some time ago to stop editing what he has done but what he is doing is not following the format as currently required by Scalemates.

From Scalemates the instructions how to fill in these fields:

Title: The name of the product as written on the box. "All caps" titles can be changed to normal text (eg. PANAVIA TORNADO can be changed to Panavia Tornado). All indications about time/country/units go to the prefix/postfix fields. In case you are not sure put all in "title"

He keeps on deleting the word "for" while stated on the manufactures packaging, reason unknown. And after a short hiatus he is doing it again. An example he corrected is: A-4M Skyhawk (late with HUD)..Quinta Studio QD48526, 1:48)

QD48526
 


It clearly states "for Hasegawa/Hobby 2000 kit", not what is stated in the current title "Hobby 2000/Hasegawa".

Could you please either change the instructions or instruct Eddy Mann to follow your original instructions.

Thank you, TYU

TIMELINES

SCM Topic: Four-masted barque Passat (1911)
SCM Topic: Four-masted barque Cap Horn (1888)
SCM Topic: Four-masted barque Pamir (1905)

Something that has been on my mind for sometime on the above ships is that, especially in the case of Heller, the same moulds are probably (I can fact check) being used for Passat, Cap Horn and Pamir - so the above represents something which is aligned with true history but not aligned with what scale model manufacturers (esp Heller!) are actually doing.

So here we have 3 kits that possibly have a continuous timeline which are contrained by topic conventions.

Listing these 3 ships under a topic Four-masted barque would of course fix this issue, but manufacturers (Heller again!) may use other ships across what seem totally unrelated topic areas. So we have in the extreme example all Heller sailing ships being listed under the topic Sailing ships

Allowing cross topic history would resolve this (but assume its probably a lot of work, impossible, maybe a lot of work for the user and thus self defeating)

I am therefore concious this is a scale modelling site first and foremost and not an encyclopedia and history of the moulds should be paramount.

Given I would have originally created the original topics for the above many many years ago I probably didnt understand this issue fully and would have inadvertently broken the timelines.

Perhaps we should create a prohibition where someone tries to move a kit to a different topic which is already linked via timeline. We could then raise particular issues as a Data Request as and when required.

I do have some resources re Heller which would enable me to advise which Heller kits in fact have the same moulds and I may have broken the timelines.

Why do we need so much detail in the Event section -

"World War 2»Pacific War»New Guinea Campaign»Battle of Buna Goa"

Surely the event is simply "Battle of Buna Goa" which has its own wiki page - (anyway the date of the event and the location is surely the clue that its WW2 and in New Guinea and its the Pacific War)

Perhaps the instruction could state it should align wherever possible with a wiki page title?

yes and no. you need additional storage but not necessarily on your main servers, but more in a backup kind of orientation somewhere else.

Hi and happy new year to everyone.
Not sure if it is a bug or I'm doing something wrong.
I've joined some days ago and I listed all my kits in my stash, and wanted to put a couple of them for sale/trade.
I think I've done it correctly, and I think it is visible on the kit page itself (if anyone can kindly confirm this), but the "for sale" section of my profile is empty.

It would be nice if the '' Add project inventory from your stash'' section at the creation of a project were a little bit smarter, maybe it could look at the topic you put in?

I wonder if it is possible to make an own category for 3D-printed models/accessories? They are often from obscure manufacturers and hard to order. I would love to be able to exclude 3D printed items from my feed.

in principle seems a good idea, but excluding all 3D printed stuff, would also exclude reputed manufacturers, specially since some of them are doing more and more 3D printed stuff (Eduard comes to mind for example).

which feed are you referring to? the news feed or updates?

Rune Haugen
News Feed was my thought. Cottage industri obscurities that are not available for most modelleres flood the feed. Maybe time to make a separate 3Dmates?

It would be nice to have an option to list books that I own in physical form versus those that are digital purchases only. Can this be implemented? Scalemates is, btw, amazing.

I guess I thought there could be a checkbox added. Perhaps this is best done under storage, where I can simply add a text option for digital vs. hard copy. It also seems like State might be a way to go, though having "Digital" as an option to select would be ideal.

On the topics site the filters give you the choice between "yes" and "yes".

it will be great to have a filter for location/status etc when we are in stash page. it was suggesting that on SCM Newsfeed but since the original post was about stash location it may have gone unnoticed

location is a filter that we could make use in multiple places in the site, for example in the contribute-missing instructions

If I open the Action menu on an "Article" it shows only "xxx". A second press on Action is needed to get the real menu.

Hello,

I would like to rearrange my stash a little and have come across a small problem. A few boxes need to be swapped or moved for space reasons. Unfortunately, 2 boxes contain a lot of small items (sheets, profiles, figures, etc.). Is there a way to move the entire contents of a storage box to another storage location or to rename a storage location for all the items stored in it at once? Such an option would be very helpful, as I could save myself the trouble of renaming around 350 storage locations in this specific case. Thank you very much for your help.

please let me know what needs to be renamed so you have a quick fix, while I look for a permanent solution for everybody

Hi, that would be realy great.
everything from 1-1-3 (short for room1, shelf 1 Box 3) gos to 1-1-5
everything from 1-1-2 gos to 1-1-3
and everything from 1-5-6 goes to 1-5-5
Everything else contains just a few kits and I can sort them out quickly.
Thanks a lot for the help.

I bulk fixed all

Note, for the box I added an 'x' at the end. This way In case we made a mistake I can revert

1-1-3 => 1-1-5x
1-1-2 => 1-1-3x
1-5-6 => 1-5-5x

If all is good I'll remove the x from the box label in bulk

It appears that filling in multiple topics for books is not possible. This feature could be quite useful, for example, in the following situation:
Book: Aichi D3A ('Val') & Yokosuka D4Y ('Judy') (by M. C. Richards, Donald S. Smith)

Aichi D3A ('Val') & Yokosuka D4Y ('Judy') (Profile Publications 241)

I got a book about the Mistel. Here the Ju- 88, Bf-109 and FW-190 would be useful.

multitopic books will not be for soon

What about a book about the Luftwaffe in WW2, should it be linked to all potential topics containing a mention/image?

I don't have a solution for this which would stop it from becoming a huge multitopic mess. (on the other hand, todays solution is also a mess)

I seem to be logged out for parts of the site. For example I got all kinds of wishlist and stash messages in my feed, and the last time I tried to write this I was told to log in while my name showed on top right of the page. How can I reset the feed to "relevant" information again?

When adding new colors to a paint range it would be nice if default values could be picked based on previous entries.

Eg. if all/most items so far are acrylic, gloss and in 30ml bottles... adding a new paint has likely the same data.

Paint purchase and storage. I can't find a way to specify purchase and/or storage of paint, the way I do for kits and other tools. It would be helpful, so I hope it is possible to include it.
