#

new section im working on

cedar prawn
#

they already do that

#

i have added them to boreal and verdance

tawdry citrus
#

nice

#

is all this giving tenebrous vibes? (minus the textures)

cedar prawn
tawdry citrus
#

im making the actual ground level that you play on way more detailed

#

and im trying to make it feel like an actual city where people lived and worked

#

also the actual layout of the playable space is almost done

#

mostly because adding any more would make the moon way too big

cedar prawn
#

a lot of moons only really work with the cruiser

tawdry citrus
#

the main thing that makes this moon absurdly huge is the fact that you cant use a cruiser or anything on it

#

its about the same size as forsaken overall but theres almost no way to get anywhere going in a straight line

cedar prawn
#

tenebrous is the only moon out of the lunar lights moons that works well with cruiser

tawdry citrus
#

yeah, main on that moon was designed for taking the cruiser down the road

cedar prawn
#

on precipice you can get the cruiser up there but it is risky

tawdry citrus
#

yeah

#

everything is risky on precipice

#

its exclusively made for coordinated teams of 4

cedar prawn
#

true

tawdry citrus
#

the design is to make loot transfer extremely fast but a one way trip

cedar prawn
#

i do think it is a bit too unfair right now

tawdry citrus
cedar prawn
tired crown
#

LMAO

cedar prawn
ashen vessel
cedar prawn
#

and giants can just make it impossible

ashen vessel
#

on my pack haha

cedar prawn
#

I think the moon should still be the most difficult out of the bunch

tawdry citrus
ashen vessel
cedar prawn
#

i left indoor hell (19 power and insane spawn curve is still there)

ashen vessel
#

like nutcrackers guarding the outside

tawdry citrus
#

once things start spawning, you arent supposed to be able to get up the mountain again

#

do masked enemies use the nodes for navigation?

cedar prawn
#

i just lowered outside power a bit and made them only spawn old birds, dog and worms (giants are really unfair on a moon like that imo especially with the fog)

cedar prawn
tawdry citrus
#

i wasnt sure if they just always knew where you are and moved around based on that

#

or if they're like every other enemy and walk back and forth between nodes

cedar prawn
#

Rampart is the opposite with dangerous outdoor spawns and easier indoor spawns

#

but that moon will need more work because outdoor spawns are done with a script

ashen vessel
#

if not its fine just came to mind

cedar prawn
#

and i had to redo them

cedar prawn
ashen vessel
#

I just meant ever

cedar prawn
#

i can try to restore the project at least

compact pawn
tawdry citrus
#

its not very fun

cedar prawn
#

Depending on the damage i can figure it out myself or i will give it to someone who knows what they are doing

tawdry citrus
#

its just cool the first time

cedar prawn
#

it is the biggest challenge for me so far

ashen vessel
#

man his stuff had some crazy gimmicks

#

sad they are all broken

cedar prawn
#

rampart def needs better loot

ashen vessel
#

honestly I like rampart but hate how hidden the main entrance to the tunnels is

#

like sure once yk where itis

#

its fine

#

but if you forget its annoying

cedar prawn
#

I think it would be fine to have time going a bit slower on the moon

#

it just takes a long time to get to main without jet

#

and i added some lights to the sewer entrance

tawdry citrus
#

the idea for the moon was a walled city that the company has no idea how to get into

cedar prawn
#

because when i played the moon for the first time i was unable to find it

tawdry citrus
#

so you kinda just park outside and have to get lost trying to find a way in

#

and the entrance is a sewer hatch that just happened to be open

cedar prawn
tawdry citrus
#

yup

#

loot value never got tuned properly either

#

so its extremely high risk with literally no reward

cedar prawn
#

so i think adding a clue to where to go is better as not knowing where to go is pretty frustrating

cedar prawn
tawdry citrus
#

also something being outside would help a lot

#

there should probably be a fire exit or something in the back over by the bridge

#

so theres actually a reason for the outside area to even exist

cedar prawn
#

yes that would make it better for players that dont find the sewer entrance

tawdry citrus
#

can you get me a top down view of the moon?

#

i have a couple ideas for where to put a fire exit

cedar prawn
#

i can in a sec

#

do you want to keep the other fire exits?

tawdry citrus
#

yeah

tawdry citrus
#

ontop of that thing up there, or under the bridge

#

maybe even both if you think that'd work

cedar prawn
#

i think both would work well

#

i might have to remove one of the fire exits inside then

#

as having too many fire exits on a smaller interior will make them all spawn at the same place sometimes

#

so then players just dont take the sewers at all because they can just open the garage door when going through the fire exit

#

so maybe the top one is better then?

#

oh wait i did not know you could get up there

#

that jump looks doable

tawdry citrus
#

it should be

#

are you thinking putting the fire exit on the bridge next to there?

cedar prawn
#

i can put it like on the bridge itself or right next to it

tawdry citrus
#

either is fine

#

up to you

cedar prawn
#

i think on the bridge would be cool

#

makes the fire exit hidden enough to not just be way better than going through the sewer

cedar prawn
tawdry citrus
#

you can just put it up agaisnt the wall

#

also

#

the red is where the playable space of the moon is gonna be

#

heres where the unfinished buildings are gonna go

#

generally

#

green is the last one that'll be in playable space

#

the yellow/orange ones are just background decoration

tawdry citrus
#

on either end of the circle path

#

@cedar prawn since you like tenebrous a lot, whats your opinion on all this?

cedar prawn
#

the trees are an interesting choice

#

makes it feel more like someone lived there

cedar prawn
tawdry citrus
#

its meant to be like a big spire that extends deep under water

#

also, first view of the moon you get when you step out of the ship

#

(the underneath section with all the pipes and stuff)

cedar prawn
#

the lights add so much to the general atmosphere

pastel lynx
cedar prawn
pastel lynx
#

short answer, yeah

cedar prawn
#

i have a lethal bundle of all of them

#

only thing left is bug fixing and testing

pastel lynx
#

that's neat

#

by any chance did you did something with the custom fire exits?

cedar prawn
#

rampart i am unsure the rest should be ready today if there are no issues

pastel lynx
#

oh, also, the fire exit rotation thingy

cedar prawn
pastel lynx
#

neat!

pastel lynx
cedar prawn
#

i also had to fix any weather having no skybox

pastel lynx
#

correct me if I'm wrong, but afaik doesn't that moon has some custom script spawning eyeless dogs on the sewers part?

cedar prawn
#

i guess adding 2 volumetric clouds cancels them out idk

pastel lynx
#

that explains a lot lol

cedar prawn
#

all scripts went missing which is why this will take longer

pastel lynx
#

I see

cedar prawn
#

i have something set up but idk if it works yet

#

there is also a config to disable them for modpacks

pastel lynx
#

thanks for doing this btw

#

I know this had to be hard

cedar prawn
#

it was not too bad

#

i expected it to be much worse

#

it was more tedious than anything

#

all the tags had to be set again

pastel lynx
#

I guess the moonpack will be uploaded when Rampart is done

pastel lynx
#

neat!

cedar prawn
#

i will have to ask again if it will be an update to the existing mod or a fork

cedar prawn
#

yeah if they were not it would not have been this easy

#

well if they had not responded i would not have been able to do anything

pastel lynx
#

tru

cedar prawn
#

they also helped a lot with finding the shaders

pastel lynx
#

and the new v80 shader thingy for the fade out of the grass is not possible rn?

cedar prawn
#

it is but it does not seem worth the pain rn

pastel lynx
#

understandable

#

at least it's not a big issue

cedar prawn
#

if you know someone with shadergraph experience they could help

pastel lynx
cedar prawn
#

possibly however it is not required to know anything about shaders when making moons

#

most use asset store shaders for complex stuff as far as i know

pastel lynx
#

I know Kenji has moons with some custom shaders, I hope that can be of help at some point

cedar prawn
#

however i will prioritize fixing rampart for now

pastel lynx
#

@proper marsh by any chance do you know?

#

also, sorry for bothering

proper marsh
#

You can always touch use post process overrides inside the global volume if you want it to be close or have something like JLL to have a local volume follow the player

cedar prawn
#

i think that behavior can not be achieved by editing the global volume or am i missing something

proper marsh
cedar prawn
proper marsh
#

Oooh so you want to add the plants shaders, not post process

#

Alr alr

#

I was a bit confused lol

cedar prawn
#

yeah i basically want to add the characteristic the vanilla shader has with the fade out to the already existing one

#

but i am not sure how difficult that is to implement (for someone who knows how to work with unitys shader tool)

proper marsh
#

That is the one I use

#

You just need to import it to your project, apply it to the desired materials (the plants and foliage) and tweak it at your heart's content

cedar prawn
#

they wont really be much a threat but at least they fit well

pastel lynx
#

ok, it fit lol

cedar prawn
#

also i am pretty sure the outside spawns wont be perfect from the get go on rampart

#

i got swarmed by mimics and giants

#

and i noticed a hefty fps drop

pastel lynx
#

understandable lol

cedar prawn
#

not sure if that is the mimics pathfinding (i did not use pathfindig lag fix) or because there were like 5 gunkfish spamming the logs like crazy

#

i have reduced the spawns to a coin flip every 50s to spawn 1-2 masked after around 1pm

proper marsh
#

are they outside?

cedar prawn
proper marsh
#

you may need StarlancerAIFix

cedar prawn
#

starlancer added that

proper marsh
#

since they're not suppose to be there the ai goes a bit crazy lol

cedar prawn
proper marsh
#

aah

#

odd then

cedar prawn
#

i think they always spam logs

proper marsh
#

but new enemies do spam logs as i've seen with feios

cedar prawn
#

yeah pumas also spam logs

#

not sure if there is a mod already that disables it

#

but the severe lag on rampart is not new

cedar prawn
#

i added maskfixes and lagfix and it stayed around 100 avg

pastel lynx
cedar prawn
#

yeah but there were also less enemies so not really a fair comparison

#

should still be good to go for now

#

letting players do the rest of testing

ashen vessel
#

either burned of covered in foliage in those ones cases

#

just a thought yk

cedar prawn
#

but it is a good idea

#

i dont plan to change a bunch about the moons, but smaller stuff like that is being considered

#

balancing will still be adjusted depending on the feedback i receive

snow nexus
#

i'm not really interested in making it control like a fortnite car lel

ashen vessel
#

Haha

snow nexus
#

wym

#

W is the gas S is your brake, clutch is just a new control but it's not that difficult

#

you can rebind this stuff as well ;p

ashen vessel
snow nexus
#

that's bettervehiclecontrols

ashen vessel
snow nexus
#

in vanilla you have to shift to reverse and use the gas pedal just like in a real car

#

the S key is always a brake pedal and nothing else

ashen vessel
snow nexus
#

whuh

ashen vessel
#

Whole thing just shut off

snow nexus
#

because you stalled it ;p

#

you need to be using the clutch when near stationary and not in neutral

#

a real manual car would do the exact same thing

#

for setting off you just give some gas and release the clutch

#

simples easy

ashen vessel
snow nexus
#

when you're in say first gear and not using the clutch, the engine is actively trying to spin the wheels

ashen vessel
#

Thats why I said its well made

#

But I dont like it

snow nexus
#

manuals are awesome and i'm sad they're going away

#

they just take time to get used to

ashen vessel
#

I get it for people who like cars

snow nexus
#

then i guess custom vehicles, or any vehicle, is not for you lol

ashen vessel
#

Than in games

#

Or more ig, how infustructure forces them

snow nexus
#

before i flood Lunas thread, can we just take this to #1348033280896929926 ?

pastel lynx
cedar prawn
#

i will know more tomorrow

pastel lynx
#

kk

vapid mango
#

So will the modpack get updated or do moons get uploaded individually because the profile with the moons posted is named LunarLights, does this mean that the update is not within the modpack?

#

Because the modpack is on the profile "LustrousLuna"

cedar prawn
vapid mango
#

Ok

tawdry citrus
#

update on the new moon that i've been working on

tawdry citrus
#

i'll be ready to start working on final 3d models and stuff soon

pastel lynx
tawdry citrus
#

a couple screenshots of its current rough blockout stage

#

i just used the minimum details to decide on the layout

pastel lynx
#

It's not the light.
It's the fog + the light

tepid pawn
tawdry citrus
#

testing out some textures

cedar prawn
cedar prawn
tawdry citrus
#

Posted that within the same minute that i decided to check discord, lol

cedar prawn
tawdry citrus
#

Never really did that before

#

I only ever posted stuff in my own thread

cedar prawn
#

that is fine too

pastel lynx
cedar prawn
unique heart
#

I feel like a lot of moons do that. Idk, at least mine do I think

#

I don’t really remember vanilla ones. I feel like they do too but you don’t really notice it

pastel lynx
#

I see :,]

cedar prawn
#

not sure if it is even visible in editor

#

i guess lethal is doing something that breaks it

pastel lynx
#

pain

cedar prawn
#

somehow generates without errors despite not using dungeonplus

rustic pine
#

i believe without DunGenPlus you'd get issues that arent related to it not generating, but instead generating incorrectly

#

depends how u used the mod ig

cedar prawn
#

i dont know why dungeonplus was a dependency

#

maybe stella remembers

cedar prawn
#

managed to restore the original dungeonextender so it should generate the same way as before (with dungeonplus as a dependency)

#

i still want to test everything and make sure generation is as close to vanilla as possible so it might still take a bit to get updated

pastel lynx
# cedar prawn

I remember the locked door was for something it was never created.
If it's not going to be used, would be good enough to be removed

#

btw, there was some places on some rooms where enemies could pass through walls

cedar prawn
#

i would need to know on which tiles

#

i know there are a few bugs with this interior and not every single one of them will be fixed right away

cedar prawn
pastel lynx
#

that wall was passable by some enemies, I remember a crawler and a butler was able to pass trought it

cedar prawn
#

i will also fix (hopefully most) stuck item spots

#

good thing i checked the interior for stuck items like a year ago

cedar prawn
#

there is an offmesh link here to let enemies phase through the wall

pastel lynx
#

I think yeah

#

It was a while ago lol

pastel lynx
cedar prawn
#

there are multiple variants of it

pastel lynx
#

It was lile a square with 1 door each side

cedar prawn
#

okay i will check that out

pastel lynx
#

It was really common tbh

#

Maybe generating with DunGenPlus as a test you could see it

#

It was fairly small

cedar prawn
#

i think the editor dll is broken (?) rn

tawdry citrus
# cedar prawn

I forgot how messy those tiles looked because of the extra walls

#

They look completely nonsensical

pastel lynx
nimble fox
#

thats just The Weeknd

#

hes chilling there

cedar prawn
pastel lynx
#

?*

cedar prawn
#

i think a couple adjustments to ramparts outside spawns

harsh rain
cedar prawn
cedar prawn
#

are you playing with other mods?

harsh rain
#

I do have loafarcs sound api bindings-

I assume it's relating to that

cedar prawn
cedar prawn
harsh rain
cedar prawn
cedar prawn
#

it is caused by this error fix mod (to the surprise of nobody looking at the tags...)

cedar prawn
#

the mod is called error fix

#

and it is ai generated 💀

pastel lynx
#

💀

#

this one?

harsh rain
#

LAMO

pastel lynx
#

lol.
Please, don't download any mod with the tag AI Generated

harsh rain
#

My friend recommened slop to me

cedar prawn
#

would not be surprised to see it break more things when it causes bugs when simply going in water

harsh rain
#

can't believe it

cedar prawn
#

you mean diffoz

pastel lynx
cedar prawn
#

the only two mods with the ai generated tag that are fine are lethalperformance and diffoztweaks (i think diffoz did not need to tag them as such)

#

the rest is mostly slop

pastel lynx
#

but that one + DeathAnimations is really good

#

I'm so fucking pissed.

cedar prawn
#

Lunar Lights v1.5.1

  • balance changes for every moon
  • adjusted calamitous daytime lighting a bit
#

Eternal Void (Lost Edifice Interior) v1.1.0

  • updated to v81
  • v70 radar sprites added
  • fixed a lot of stuck item spots
  • LCVR support
#

for those who have not played the interior yet here are some pictures

#

please tell me incase there are any bugs as this was my first time working on an interior (huge thanks to paco and fumo for answering all of my questions)
the interior should feel much better now that there are not as many stuck items

blissful gorge
#

oh that's so awesome dude

slim fern
#

damn this looks sick

pastel lynx
#

yay, Peak is back

ashen vessel
#

@errant island

ashen vessel
#

good to see it back

tall flame
#

probably the best interior for a vanilla aesthetic I've seen so far. one thing to note is it does not work well with the new immersive entrance mod.

ashen vessel
cedar prawn
blissful gorge
#

amazing

ashen vessel
cedar prawn
#

the only big problem the interior had was the amount of stuck items (they were also a pain to fix)

ashen vessel
#

the main entrance room had enemies have problems pathfinding

cedar prawn
ashen vessel
#

nice

cedar prawn
#

not guaranteed that everything is fixed

cedar prawn
errant island
#

Wooow :0

tawdry citrus
#

@cedar prawn thank you so much for working so hard to restore all this

#

you've done a lot and i cant thank you enough for it

pastel lynx
#

It's good to see some of the best moons and interior getting restored :]

tawdry citrus
#

it makes me very happy seeing people excited for all this stuff that i kinda just gave up on

#

i didnt realize how much the stuff i made mattered to you all

tawdry citrus
#

it makes me feel accomplished

#

back when i first made my original moon pack way back in the day

#

i wanted to make an interior that felt like a mansion but if it was a facility

#

and that original idea motivated me a lot when i finally decided to actually make the interior

#

it was exactly what i originally wanted to make

#

and seeing people say that it feels like exactly what i intended to create, makes me very happy

#

thanks everyone, and especially @cedar prawn

#

you've all done a lot for me

cedar prawn
tawdry citrus
#

the fact that you call them amazing is why you all deserve thanks

pastel lynx
tawdry citrus
#

interior was planned to be expanded

#

and it was also going to slowly be changed as a teaser for upcoming updates to a larger story thing i was working on

#

that ended up turning into a seperate game project

#

that i also ended up giving up on

cedar prawn
pastel lynx
#

I remember that you wanted to change the engine

#

And then the patreon :']

tawdry citrus
#

that was before i decided to move it over to an entirely new game

tawdry citrus
pastel lynx
#

I remember that there was some posts of a moon in Unity directly or unreal engine, I don't know a lot about that :']

tawdry citrus
#

oh yeah i was making another moon in unity before that

pastel lynx
#

It still looks amazing :']

tawdry citrus
#

sadly that one's forever gone

cedar prawn
#

how many unreleased moons do you have?

tawdry citrus
#

same thing with this interior room i was working on

tawdry citrus
#

technically 3

cedar prawn
#

there was also the floating island one

tawdry citrus
#

if you count the moon looking one

tawdry citrus
cedar prawn
tawdry citrus
#

yeah

#

it was a decontamination chamber that you could turn on

#

theres a lever on the inside that turns it on

#

it slowly shuts both entrances to the room

#

and then does a ton of damage to everything inside

cedar prawn
#

oh so for trapping enemies?

tawdry citrus
#

it was basically guarenteed to kill anything inside of it

#

and if you got stuck inside it'd put you at critical health

#

the doors shut slow enough that you could bait something in and then run out

#

during testing i could reliably kill thumpers and spiders with it

#

it was super cool and i feel bad that i deleted it with everything else

cedar prawn
#

yeah it is unfortunate

tawdry citrus
#

it would've fit nicely into the rest of the interior

cedar prawn
#

at least you could theoretically update lost edifice again

tawdry citrus
#

only reason it never got released is because i wanted to add more than one room for an update

cedar prawn
#

but losing so much progress is very demotivating

tawdry citrus
#

so i ended up adding nothing and deleting the only thing i made

#

lol

cedar prawn
#

that was the only tile that got deleted?

tawdry citrus
#

yeah

cedar prawn
#

the 2/3 moons looked almost done (or were basically done?) though

tawdry citrus
#

horizon was very very old

cedar prawn
#

i mean you could probably remake the tile based on the screenshot

tawdry citrus
#

but also was finished when it got lost

cedar prawn
tawdry citrus
#

mhm

#

the moon looking one was in a rough state and got deleted intentionally before i gave up on everything

#

cuz i wasnt happy with it fully

#

and decided to move away from lethal company to make the full game that i gave up on

pastel lynx
#

I think that was when they were working at that time.

ashen vessel
#

for the recent stuff

#

phone didnt load the images

tired crown
#

@tawdry citrus How's your system doing nowadays? You guys tend to vanish for months and months on end so we hope you've been doing okay

tawdry citrus
#

been stable for a while at this point, only changes have been me specifically trying to figure myself out

tired crown
#

That’s good

tawdry citrus
#

i appreciate that you wanted to check on us

pastel lynx
cedar prawn
#

because there is not anything in this interior which can break other mods

pastel lynx
# cedar prawn does it show anything in the logs?

it logs that Natural needs the compatibility of LobbyCompatibility 💀
afaik from Fandover (NaturalSelection's modder) that this was a "soft" compatibility that was going to be disabled soon, but it's weird that it's logging that rn when it's loading the interior

cedar prawn
pastel lynx
#

I'll inform that to them

cedar prawn
pastel lynx
pastel lynx
#

It's just that "casually" it logged that besides this in that time

cedar prawn
#

it is still odd as this never happened to me

pastel lynx
#

I'll do some testings with this alone + some few mods to get that sorted soon

cedar prawn
#

you have another dungeonplus interior in your pack?

pastel lynx
pastel lynx
#

sometimes happens sometimes doesn't :,]

cedar prawn
#

i dont see why it would change the way other interiors generate though

cedar prawn
pastel lynx
cedar prawn
#

i wont be able to test rn (it is past midnight for me) but i can take a look when i wake up

pastel lynx
#

Will let you know

cedar prawn
#

not quite sure what is meant by tile/doorway tag

pastel lynx
#

wait, it could be this

pastel lynx
#

Another culpript could be Cull Factory.
I remember this mod had some issues with that

ashen vessel
#

did it with cull

#

just fine

#

multiple times

#

unless its a 3 way confict

cedar prawn
#

but as i said before i did not mess with any dungeon generation settings

cedar prawn
pastel lynx
tired crown
#

@cedar prawn The issue is likely that the Interior does not have enough tiles, it is pretty small with few tiles iirc and when it used to be able to generate on large moons it became apparent cus the same few tiles would generate constantly

#

So it might just fail to generate on moons with larger interior size multipliers not sure

compact pawn
compact pawn
cedar prawn
#

and the moon i tested the most was titan

#

but i also tested experimention and left tile size at 1.0 to prevent it from failing (which is something that has happened to me in the past on really small interior moons with some interiors)

cedar prawn
#

one thing that has been bugging me is that all the doorways still show up as yellow in the editor, but i was told it should not matter (?)

#

i will do some quick tests rn with moroxides modpack and a bare bones one because i suspect an incompatibly somewhere

#

the interior has 27 tiles btw

#

could also be this setting maybe

compact pawn
#

Mayhaps yeah

cedar prawn
pastel lynx
cedar prawn
#

it just wont load right?

#

like unable to land

pastel lynx
#

It softlock when loading the landing yeah

cedar prawn
#

ok i tested the bar bones one and it did not happen even after 15+ resets

(i had to go on a little side quest to get my xp back because it corrupted somehow)

#

next i will test my modpack (that one already has like 100+) mods and if it works there i will test yours with half mods enabled/disabled

cedar prawn
pastel lynx
#

I've only landed on Exp

cedar prawn
#

because i tested experimentation because that is the one you got softlocked on

tawdry citrus
#

i know my interior used to have issues with not generating

#

but i never had the issue

#

and only some people ever had it

#

and i wasnt able to try to fix it back then

cedar prawn
tawdry citrus
#

pretty sure it was oringinally generating way too big and spread out

#

if i remember correctly the interior had a habit of generating in multiple extremely long pretty much straight lines

cedar prawn
#

i see

#

i think in this case it is an incompatibility with another mod

#

i have disabled a couple of mods in moroxides pack and it does not happen anymore

#

and i think i know which mod is causing it

#

@pastel lynx try without this mod

#

with this mod enabled i got softlocked after 1-5 attempts

#

without i havent been softlocked for 15+ attempts

#

my theory is this mod caps the max dungeon generation attempts to 20 whereas usually lethal company goes way beyond that

#

this would explain why lost edifice sometimes loads instantly and other times takes a bit

#

i am pretty sure it is because of dungeon bounds which i will try to address (it should not cause any softlocks though)

tawdry citrus
#

it causes it to have to regenerate the dungeon every time it tries to generate off into a straight line

#

since it'll hit the bounds and cant swap out for a tile that can turn back around into the bounds

cedar prawn
#

and the mod moroxide uses for testing purposes prevents that from happening more than 20 times

#

i think it does at least not sure

#

it would explain why it does not always fail

tawdry citrus
#

sometimes you get lucky and it generates correctly the first try

cedar prawn
rustic pine
cedar prawn
#

there is something that dev mode does to dungeon generation

rustic pine
#

I'm fairly sure that Mod just enables zeekerss dev tools

cedar prawn
#

both my modpack as well as a bare bones one never fails to generate it

cedar prawn
rustic pine
#

I doubt it
It does actually enable something else, which would enable zeekerss dev menu but I don't know what other effects enabling that property would have

#

So maybe it is messing with dungeon generation

#

But afaik the 20 attempts thing is normal

#

Black mesa makes it 100 attempts iirc

rustic pine
#

Yeah it does enable something that could fuck with it

#

Never seen anyone enable that at runtime before lol

#

I've never used the mod personally, thought it just enabled zeekerss dev menu tbh

cedar prawn
#

would be nice if it logged how many attempts it needed

quaint hatch
#

@tawdry citrus hi, your new mod interior "eternal void"is kinda laggy to load it

pastel lynx
quaint hatch
#

@cedar prawn

pastel lynx
#

bruh, there's no need to ping

quaint hatch
cedar prawn
#

but that depends on the moon you visited and how good your pc is

quaint hatch
#

but your interior is the most laggy one i have here

#

it's not super laggy

cedar prawn
#

like only during loading right?

quaint hatch
#

but i am kinda worried it's not going to load with 4-6 people

quaint hatch
#

inside is ok

quaint hatch
cedar prawn
cedar prawn
#

what are your pc specs and which moon did you test

quaint hatch
quaint hatch
#

28GB is ram

cedar prawn
quaint hatch
cedar prawn
quaint hatch
#

ima see with other interiors

cedar prawn
#

i might know how to improve it though

cedar prawn
cedar prawn
#

esp for unity terrain moons (such as vow, march, ada)

quaint hatch
#

ok, i just tested with vehicle hangar and it was 20 seconds 😭 , Metro was 9 seconds

#

i guess it's the moon

cedar prawn
#

titan has 2.2 it just takes a bit to load

#

when playing with a lot people (esp if they have worse pcs) it can even take minutes to land

#

but you just have to be patient it will usually load after some time

#

i dont know if that is just me but i feel like load time has increased since v80 (i am probably wrong on this but it feels like it)

cedar prawn
# quaint hatch how i change that

anyway you can change the moons interior size with something like lunar config but that will make the interior smaller which is quite bad on late-game moons such as lua because loot will be way too easy to find and enemies will be crowded together

quaint hatch
#

it's kinda weird, because just using more company i don't get this issue

cedar prawn
#

and some were using less than ideal setups

quaint hatch
#

from too much players

cedar prawn
#

there is a mod called loadinginfo which displays who has not finished loading yet

cedar prawn
quaint hatch
cedar prawn
#

but for the most part this just seems a general lc problem not and is not interior specific

quaint hatch
#

i was having a severe problem with liminal facility

cedar prawn
#

or are you playing an older version

quaint hatch
#

no

#

like

#

was kinda funny

#

i was testing circus facility

#

and i just no clipped somewhere

#

and dropped to the backrooms

cedar prawn
#

it has not been updated yet and you should not be able to play on it at all

cedar prawn
quaint hatch
#

It was default

#

@cedar prawn hi i playing with 4 friends

#

and i can't find too much scrap, i think the interior it's too big or too spread out, idk

cedar prawn
quaint hatch
#

ascension

cedar prawn
#

same with ascension if you get unlucky

#

the interior itself is not notably bigger than normal vanilla facility

#

with 5 players you should be able to clear the entire interior by the end of the day

#

but i will make adjustments to the interior generation soonish anyways so it will probably be a bit smaller

quaint hatch
quaint hatch
#

so

#

i think that's just like that then

cedar prawn
#

if anything it is easier to loot than vanilla facility

#

it really depends on if your group knows how to loot properly

quaint hatch
cedar prawn
#

and there are no crazy gimmicks in it

#

only thing that may cause problems is the jump tile (at least i have seen a lot of players fall off there)

pastel lynx
cedar prawn
#

but with items it gets scary

pastel lynx
#

true

cedar prawn
#

kind of hard to explain why

#

but i also may have failed that jump a couple times when first playing the interior

pastel lynx
quaint hatch
#

@cedar prawn

cedar prawn
#

yeah that is how it usually goes

tawdry citrus
#

It actually was designed to stick out really far so you can still get across when super heavy

quaint hatch
tawdry citrus
#

in case anyone was wondering why i hadnt posted any progress updates on the stuff ive been working on

#

i've been taking a break and doing other stuff i enjoy

#

so i dont get burnt out

#

im planning to get together a playtest soon for the moon

echo plover
#

that's it I'll push a fast patch to at least fix this issue.

#

Because who knows when I'll finally rewrite the bees patch

pastel lynx
# echo plover what

hey, just to let you know, it was not your mod, Natural's log about needing LobbyCompatibility was hiding the log that was causing this issue

#

somehow lol

#

won't be bad to at least update that logging

#

and remove that compat

#

I mean, it's still an issue this mod hiding the logs from other mods

#

but it was not causing the softlock lol

echo plover
#

I have no idea how it hid other logs from other mods

Abyssal Beta

Stella asked me to upload a beta/test version of an upcoming moon which will have a similar style to tenebrous
This beta version exists solely for gathering feedback and suggestions
i dont recommend using the moon for normal gameplay in its current state

#

the moon is currently a simple blockout of what the layout will look like

#

here are some editor screenshots

#

goddamn

no it just looks fucking awesome lol

trueeeee holy shit

#

pretty great layout....

#

just one thing though, i keep hitting my head when hopping onto the platforms next to the ship

#

you should raise them a little bit

pastel lynx
#

hmm.
I guess here is a small clipping

cedar prawn
foggy timber
# tawdry citrus

That tiny thin bar does not seem like something that can actually be stood on.
I think this would be far more clear if it was changed to a "hanging" platform, one that bends down as if it was snapped off

and this folks is why you get rid of faces that shouldnt be visible

#

I dunno if i should be professional here or if i can use this thread to talk into the void in hopes that someone who cares hears me

#

I feel stuck

#

Im losing days and weeks and months of my life

#

As time goes by

#

Nothing changes and i dont have the power to change anything

#

Im stuck in a life that i have no control in

#

I just wanna live a life that isnt just sitting in a room all day every day

#

I want to be myself

#

But i cant do that

#

And i feel like I'll never get to be myself

#

This society decides who you are and who you're allowed to be just because of what body your genetics gave you

#

I can never shrink myself

#

I can never fix my body

#

Im stuck with what i was forced into and that body doesn't allow me to live as myself

#

People will never see me as who i really am

#

And I'll never feel like who i am

#

Because of what i was born into, everything was taken from me

#

I never got to have a childhood

#

I never got to have my teenage social life

#

And now im a 19 year old rotting away in a bedroom waiting until things get better

#

Losing every day that im forced to wait through

#

I dont get these days back

#

I dont get these years back

#

They're gone forever

#

I dont know what to do

tawdry citrus
#

I know all of this has nothing to do with Lethal company but i have nowhere else to go

tired crown
tawdry citrus
#

No

tired crown
#

I mean we can kinda relate since our physical body does not align with how any of us look in head space but we kinda just do our best to ignore what the body looks like. We know it's not us and that we simply just exist in it and have to deal with it tbh

tawdry citrus
#

Also, its not really "coming" from anywhere

#

Its just feelings that have been building up for a while

#

And ig it's just reached a breaking point and I need to get it out

tired crown
#

I mean some of us would honestly like if our physical body was different but even then because so many of us have our own idea of what our physical body should be it still wouldn't work out most of the time if it was different lol

#

Like it's normal to have these feelings and stuff build up, at the same time though you kinda have to do as much as you can to feel comfortable in the body you exist in, for us that's being on HRT despite half of us not even really primarily going by She/Her pronouns anymore

tawdry citrus
#

Not being able to be on hrt is part of it for me

#

Its yet another thing im losing time on

tired crown
#

Yeah that will be, if any of you suffer through gender dysphoria it's rough.

tawdry citrus
#

We all do

#

It is rough

tired crown
#

Also what do you feel like you're losing time on and not fulfilling?

tawdry citrus
#

Being myself

#

Getting to live life

tired crown
#

I mean Being yourself is just Being you whenever you're fronting the body and properly expressing yourself

tawdry citrus
#

Being happy

#

I havent been genuinely happy as long as i can remember

tired crown
#

Well iirc you were supposed to start HRT ages ago

#

Whatever happened to that?

#

Starting HRT will help a lot, also working out some of the traumas you have with your system as well

tawdry citrus
tired crown
#

Hmmmm well start taking actions to find a doctor and hopefully get on them

tawdry citrus
#

Can't do that

tired crown
#

Isn't your partner on meds?

#

You could likely see the same doctor

tawdry citrus
tired crown
# tawdry citrus Can't do that

Can't how? You should have means of getting insurance if not it'd probably be worth trying to get officially diagnosed with a disability of some sort since I know your system is rather unstable and goes through rapid switches and getting a job would be hard on you

tawdry citrus
#

No drivers license

tired crown
#

But there's also insurances you can get if you haven't worked

tawdry citrus
#

And we live in the middle of nowhere

tired crown
#

Ahhhh no license/ID

#

You don't have a method to go to the DMV?

tawdry citrus
#

Im literally stuck just sitting in this house

tired crown
#

🙁

tawdry citrus
#

Nope

tired crown
#

Does your partner also not drive?

tawdry citrus
#

Doesn't have her license yet

tired crown
#

And I assume no friends or family that can help you which is rough

tawdry citrus
#

And is supposed to be working on getting it

#

And hasn't been

tired crown
#

Also you mentioned partners, I only recall you dating one person when you initially moved that was also a system

tawdry citrus
#

We made plans to have her work on getting her license as soon as the winter snow melted

#

Literally nothing has happened with that since

tawdry citrus
tired crown
#

Have you tried contacting them and asking them for help?

tawdry citrus
#

We still talk

#

And i have talked a bit and they said they wanna help

tired crown
#

Cus if your current partner isn't helping you when you really need it and you also are unable to do anything it'd be worth trying to move in with them or see if they can help

#

It sucks you're in a situation where you can't do anything and you're reliant on someone who isn't able to help out

tawdry citrus
#

The one that moved out says that they wish they could just fly us both out to stay with them, but they just dont have space for it

tawdry citrus
#

Because i feel like she needs to know how things are genuinely impacting me

tired crown
#

Yeah communication is important

tawdry citrus
#

So uhh

#

Off topic

#

How's life been going for you?

tired crown
#

It's been going pretty okay we suppose, could be better honestly in some ways

tawdry citrus
tawdry citrus
#

We used to be a bit closer, im curious if you'd wanna talk more often

tired crown
#

Well you do have a tendency to come around then vanish for a while

#

lol

tawdry citrus
#

Im aware

tired crown
#

Gotta make a dentist appointment asap though, our previous dentist was notoriously shitty and gave us a really poorly done oversized filling that recently broke

tawdry citrus
#

I see, that sucks

#

Sorry youre having to deal with that

tired crown
#

It's fine luckily no pain, but by oversided they ended up crossing that filling onto a tooth that never needed it and we were thinking it wasn't gonna last for a while cus it always had a sharp end at the top that felt like it was half done. That part came off first. Then the part that was on the tooth that actually needed it came off, realisitically they prolly should have put one of those metal caps or smth on this tooth not a really half done filling because it's got a lot of decay now in the corner and we feel like they're prolly gonna have to do that now anyways unless we somehow get like really lucky and it can be filled again but it feels doubtful

#

Even more shameful is it's a molar that they put a cheaped out filling on

#

LMAO

tawdry citrus
#

I see

#

Sorry for not really knowing how to respond

tawdry citrus
tired crown
#

You typically show up, we talk a few times then you just kinda vanish from the internet for several months

#

😂

tawdry citrus
#

Im sorta like an internet cryptid

#

Aside from the jokes, a lot of that came from instability which isnt a problem anymore

#

And i would personally like being friends

#

Especially since i kinda dont have friends in the first place

tawdry citrus
#

hey everyone

#

on a more on topic note unlike last time

#

anyone been playing with the test moon?

#

would love to get some feedback on it

#

oh also for anyone interested in my random yapping and stuff

#

can follow me over on bluesky

2 bugs found on Incalescence

  1. Reflection bug near rocks
#
  1. The rain goes through the ceiling near the fire exit near the lake
foggy timber
#

No yeah it defo is, you can see the mesh change

pastel lynx
#

or is it something on my side?

blissful gorge
#

It might be a moon issue yeah

foggy timber
#

yeah I imagine its a moon issue, I dont know of any mod that dynamically does LODs

cedar prawn
#

so you never see anything besides lod 2

#

i might just get rid of the other 2 lod levels because they are like 5 times the amount of triangles while being visually *identical *

#
  • i have no idea why they turn invisible when switching between lod levels
#

ah nvm it is because of cross fade

#

yeah it is the same model with just more triangles
i dont even see a difference in the editor so you wont notice in game (+ rn you can only see the low poly versions so nothing will change)

foggy timber
#

I'd it's a zeekers rock it might've been meant to be larger

tepid pawn
#

that’s not a zeekers rock

blissful gorge
#

when you go from the ship to fire exit from the pipe on offense you can see a rock LOD just slowly scribble itself into existence

unique heart
#

They used to pop iirc. Now the fizzle

blissful gorge
#

tho some still pop in so maybe it's a manual thing that's now on by default in LLL?..... i don't know

#

for example the big rock with the ladder against it from Assurance pops in for me

unique heart
#

Interesting

tawdry citrus
#

heya everyone

#

if anyones awake and in a lethal company mood, im kinda bored and would enjoy playing with someone to test out the test moon

tawdry citrus
#

ya know

#

i just realized

#

i dont think anyone has made a mall interior

#

that seems like such an obvious thing

#

is there some reason im missing why nobody else has made anything like that?

proper marsh
#

there's one in the works on #1221602970446336100

it's been in wip for a while now

pastel lynx

#

supposedly? you could ask there

tawdry citrus

if i locked in really hard like i used to, i could probably make a mall interior in a week

i've always had the perks of being unemployed

and having nothing better to do

pastel lynx
tawdry citrus

if i do make an interior

#

its not gonna be a mall

#

at least not yet
