Invader - Paris locations, by Charlie on Jan 26, 2017 17:46:22 GMT 1, Hello,
I have a question for you people in the know.....
I am planning a day trip to Paris in March to check out 'Hello My Game is' and would also love to improve my score on the FlashInvaders.
Now, Is it worth spending cash on the Invader map for Paris, or do you know of anything online that shows their locations? Maybe I am being stupid but I can't find them on Google!
Never been to Paris before so I suppose I better catch a quick glimpse of the Eifel Tower and all that other stuff too..... :-)
Anyway, if this has been discussed many times before, just ignore!!
Charlie.

Charlie. Just make sure you look UP everywhere you go. He favours high locations out of reach of vandals trying to steal them. Some of the more spicey areas are always a good bet although they really are peppered everywhere and in some very slick high profile photo opp spots too. Best of luck. |

Invader - Paris locations, by MrShep on Jan 26, 2017 22:16:18 GMT 1, I've noticed a company that offers a 3-hour tour:
www.localers.com/our-tours-in-Paris/space-invader-tour-paris
It's a bit on the expensive side -- unless you can round up some other invader fans to spread the cost -- but I wouldn't be surprised if some rivals/cheaper options appear this summer to cash in on the success of the exhibition.
(P.S. first post - hi everybody!)
(Edit: just noticed, they've changed this tour a bit since I last investigated it -- it now seems to be a more child-friendly "family" tour. Possibly to fit in with anticipated audiences from the Musee en Herbe  )

Invader - Paris locations, by 11 on Jan 27, 2017 3:11:48 GMT 1, im not saying he has removed invader's but his uncensored publications have certainly pointed many people in the right direction. Despite his attempts to capitalise on invader's efforts he doesn't know his arse from his elbow as he's lumped all sorts of other mosaic artists in there too - I spotted loads of megamatt in that PDF.
The official maps give a 'loose' idea of locations but are not specific to avoid people using the information to go and take them. if you're an invader fan my suggestion would be to do some research, or befriend one of the many Invader Hunters over there. If you type 'invader pa_xxx' into google you will invariably get a lot of hits from Flickr with many of the photos are from the top player
If you want some great invader's and some great murals from an array of international artists then hit the 13th arrondissement first - get off at. Nationale - there are huge faile and Fairey murals...when looking up at the faile look to the rooftops on the left and you'll see a huge invader - 100pts big !

Invader - Paris locations, by El Pulpo on Jan 27, 2017 9:32:45 GMT 1, Agree, you can't miss them !!! Plenty outside the major touristic areas. If you wanna see a lot, then 11th (Lachaise), 10th (Quai) is a good place. I had FlashInvaders installed on my phone but sadly I had no local network nor free Wifi so it was impossible to use the applications. Not fun !
You should be able to flash them anyway, they'll be added to your gallery when you refresh it while connected later.
I realized that after trying a lot of time on one piece, look here :

Invader - Paris locations, by Charlie on Jan 27, 2017 9:45:18 GMT 1, Wow, thanks everyone.
Me and the Mrs can't wait to get over there and hunt them down.
She always tries to spot them first but I am like a hawk!

You can flash without being connected and then when you on-line check your gallery and click the requested ones... Most of time it works |

Invader - Paris locations, by marrosi on Jan 27, 2017 12:35:38 GMT 1, Damn !!! Good to know. I got that "no network" message so I shot all of them using my phone camera without using the application and instructed the same to my daughter  grrrrr !!! So if I use the application and shoot these pictures again, it should recognize them (I doubt, since it used geolocation, let's see) Nice map !!

I guess it uses the GPS when stored in your gallery requests. Have fun in Paris and go with the flow. Make sure you get the classics like in Rue De Princesse (Princess Leia) and many more. If you want to find specifically ones let me know. I might be able to help with the address. |

Is there a thread on here that has forum users Flashinvaders scores? Would be fun to know who the big hitters are.
I'm on a measly 830! Surely the top scorer has got to be the man himself?!

Invader - Paris locations, by 11 on Jan 27, 2017 20:06:35 GMT 1, A word of warning....I don't know how, but it seems that some can hack their geo-location and have flashed invaders from books or from a screen.
The invader team monitor the flashes to keep an eye out for any that have gone missing so if they spot a dodgy flash you can get a 2 week ban....I have never tried but a good friend had their app locked out for flashing from another friends phone screen.... .the most ironic part was that they were actually at the location but it was too dark to get a successful flash so they pulled a pic up on each other's phone and got the flash that way. I pissed myself laughing when I found out they were suspended ๐
