Alot 😭

[polar nexus]

😕

might as well wait

[plush thicket]

brainrot at max rn

chill

[ancient shard]

I think alot of us still cooking.

[fickle glade]

I just released a new map like 2 days ago

Shameless plug btw

[polar nexus]

cool, good job 👀

[fickle glade]

Check it out if you feel like it

[tight hinge]

It's quite solid, only complaint I had was some of the objects having collision

[fickle glade]

Like what?

[tight hinge]

Mostly the traffic cones

[fickle glade]

Well they're tucked on one side so I didn't think they'd be a problem

[tight hinge]

Accidentally bumped into them a couple times

But it's a minor thing

[halcyon stratus]

Oh I totally missed it because Im an idiot.

Downloadan.

[ancient shard]

Here's a tip tho. When placing an static model on your map, go on the entity properties and find "Clip Model" (or something like this) and change from "Auto" to "None". Btw! Great map! :D.

[verbal spindle]

I'll try that thank you

[plush thicket]

few details

[polar nexus]

this reminded me of slayer gate arena, good ol days

squirtheh

[oblique dirge]

Love it!!!

[plush thicket]

Yeah, cause it a slayer gate and said it too

[polar nexus]

this is slayer gate, but enhanced i'm assuming

[plush thicket]

It fully custom slayer gate, built from the scratch with new layout, not enhanced

[verbal spindle]

So I got the id tech launcher to work on steam deck, but now it won't launch the active mod, any one run into this?

[fickle glade]

I could do that in an update to the map

I am thinking of adding more to the out of bounds visuals to just give it a bit more polish

[ancient shard]

Oooooh i can't wait to see it! :D.

[plush thicket]

here an blockout

[oblique dirge]

nice!!!

[lapis rapids]

Hello

I know my brother is here

[sage sentinel]

hey @atomic bay its Me again. idk if you remember. Either way was checking to see if situation on steam deck has improved. I tried your suggestion AND THE LAUNCHER WORKS NOW but something is still off. Maybe because its a bandaid and not meant to work? the game is fine but the launcher resolution is all fucked up like 1/4th of screen is black on the right and a bit on bottom. its like the window is set to incorrect proportions? Any ideas? I tried setting resolution from properties no dice......

[sage sentinel]

Idk if it went through I sent a screenshot

I guess i donthave permission to drop ss

[stoic pine]

I got the same issue too. It’s resolved on Desktop Mode

[midnight canopy]

I was bored while clicking random channels on discord and i see this

is there anything i could follow to know when its released?

[oblique dirge]

I will be making something soon to keep people notified but I don’t know if I will show what I have right now it is unfinished and unpolished and I’m polishing it at the moment, but I will try to at least release something so people can really know what they’re getting a look at or what they’re going to be playing, but the lvl will not be coming out anytime soon

[fickle glade]

Does anybody know what the sound event for the rocket launcher's proximity flare is

[oblique dirge]

https://tenor.com/view/doom-slayer-gif-15112009042173347198

[stoic pine]

I wanna see someone mod Hugo as the Slayer

[wise swallow]

that would be cool and perfect

[atomic bay]

This server has Server Boost Level 3, which allows files to be up to 100 megabytes. (If you also want to post the same thing in other servers, that might not matter, though. 🤷)

[tight hinge]

Oh thanks

[polar nexus]

this one got me impressed

[jaunty verge]

Okay so, I plan to make a custom ui color profile. How do I start off with?

[halcyon stratus]

Cool but this is modding, not memes :p.

[spring jackal]

It was modded in slow motion

[fickle glade]

Does anybody know which of these sound events the chaingun uses?

[stoic pine]

probably chaingun_new.wwu, I got no idea I ain’t a sound engineer

[verbal trellis]

my game keeps freezing causing me to restart my pc just to tab out of the game

[pseudo narwhal]

How do I fix some particles (like the plasma shot from the plasma gun) being invisible on my map?

I've set the default env decl for the map, but that doesn't seem to have helped

I know I've solved this in the past and I can't for the life of me remember how to get it working correctly

[oblique dirge]

Long time no see

[pseudo narwhal]

Heh, yeah, I've been working on other stuff recently, and thanks to that I've forgotten how to do a bunch of stuff in idStudio lol

[oblique dirge]

Nice I love to see new people I can’t wait to see what you make!

[pseudo narwhal]

I'd still really like to fix this though

[jaunty garden]

guys i cant play Doom eternal with mods - beta program. I installed Randomizer + infinite arena mod. After ID logo + 3 seconds it freezes and goes to error message. Whats going on? i have drivers updated...

[pseudo narwhal]

Ok, I changed the env from esky_sky_default to esky_sky_noon and that seems to have fixed it

[fickle glade]

I don't think those two mods are compatible with each other

[whole cedar]

WHY ARE THEIR SUITS WHITE 💀💀💀💀

[swift lintel]

uh because they were lab workers

[oblique dirge]

Well, actually that’s in cold space and they are praying over the priest and their suit is red. That is just a visual glitch. Don’t know why he has that but they are not lab workers. They are lab workers there, but they’re not earth the lab workers.

[plush thicket]

Cultist base take place in earth in the north pole, they are scientist serving the priest

Cultist base is lab anyway and those are his workers

[halcyon stratus]

I just thought of how fucking cold Cultist Base and DHB are.

It's a good thing neither the demons nor Doomguy care or else they'd be freezing their asses off.

[jaunty garden]

i tried this randomizer alone and it still doest it. These two mods randomize campaign and horde mode it should not be problem...

[fickle glade]

Hmm

Try verifying files

[brave moat]

one day I'll have a build ready for playtesting for you lovely folks but today is not that day ;~~;

[tight hinge]

what for?

[brave moat]

a mod

[tight hinge]

what kind of mod?

[brave moat]

a good one hopefully

[tight hinge]

bruh, level or something else?

[brave moat]

custom level with custom geo

[tight hinge]

ah I see

any progress on it yet?

[brave moat]

lots of progress but it's not ready for playtesting yet

[tight hinge]

ah cool, can we get some screenshots?

[brave moat]

maybe when it's closer to being playtest ready

[tight hinge]

gotcha

[polar night]

I would like to see saw shield in doom eternal replace chainsaw like axe.

[oblique dirge]

hmm

[shrewd salmon]

I saw the Anvil Maykr skin and ooh, beautiful...

[split torrent]

Hello 👋 guys
New up here
Am sammyz by name and a 3D artist with many years of experience

[cobalt wasp]

Does anyone know how to solve this problem when uploading mods? Stuck at this step

[shrewd salmon]

Thank you

[frigid marsh]

I have been making this huge arena map. This is just one room in it. Tell me your thoughts.

[plush thicket]

Looks very good, but I think too large, large rooms will cause demons not aware of the player they will stand in same position and not move at all, I recommend using scale_guy model to see how big the arena, or you can use player/start entity

[frigid marsh]

Nah im good. I am aware its huge, but that kinda feels like the point. Plus you are gonna be moving a lot in this map.

Plus i have made a huge chunk of the map already. To resize it would be very time consuming and i am a lazy shit.

I mean, its not like the fights in this arena is gonna be like 2 heavies or smth.

[plush thicket]

most important thing is you creating something which it good

[frigid marsh]

Exactly, and making something i enjoy making too lol.
I plan on having buff totems spawning a lot, would encourage players to move a lot.

[tight hinge]

nice layout, but that will be way too big

[frigid marsh]

I am aware

Its gonna be a very hectic arena.

[tight hinge]

I mean from a gameplay perspective, in that big circle that you made, the slayer won't be able to jump up far enough to be able to grab the ledge for example

[frigid marsh]

Simple fix, BRIDGE + DASH.

Also, you can just jump on the orange thingies on the side and dash over there. And i do plan on adding either jump pads or vaults to allow you to get up there from the ground.

[tight hinge]

whatever you want to do man, just pointing it out so that you don't make the same mistake as others have done (myself included)

[frigid marsh]

fair enough, i appreciate it. I have an area which is a huge hallway, and a platform very high up in the middle, to make it so that you can get up their more efficiently (Instead of walking all the way around and up), there is a portal there.

[tight hinge]

looks solid

any plans on what you will decorate it with?

[muted bobcat]

lesgo🗣️

[frigid marsh]

Not fully sure, but i just kinda go with the flow.

Also this map is kinda supposed to look like blockout. Its called "nullcity" afterall. After this i do plan on trying to make maps with actual textures and models and stuff.

[tight hinge]

nice, good to see more people willing to make maps

[stoic pine]

id, you guys should get a crossover for the Slayer in the absolute DC universe because Joker in this series came from Hell.

[fickle glade]

It's like a simulation or something

[frigid marsh]

Maybe

[halcyon stratus]

We're not ID.

[digital hare]

There are id emplys here tho

[halcyon stratus]

Yeah, but this is the modding channel. We're not ID employees :p

[digital hare]

True

[molten token]

If you want the demon to be aware of the player in large arenas, you can go there editable - perception actor perception radius, and increase the number value, I can already do it like a thousand or 1500 and it works fine for me

[frigid marsh]

Oh hey, thats neat.

[atomic bay]

@modest obsidian - BUG REPORT - The "pc-mod-preview" branch wasn't updated, and doesn't launch
The "public"/default branch on Steam was updated an hour ago, changing the launcher's file location (and also making the launcher all loose files, launching much faster on my HDD - thank you!). Steam now launches DOOM Eternal via "launcher/idTechLauncher.exe" instead of "idTechLauncher.exe".
However, the "pc-mod-preview" beta branch was not updated, and still has the previous version of the game, including the previous launcher location.

This means that if you're opted into the "pc-mod-preview" branch on Steam, then Steam tries to open "launcher/idTechLauncher.exe" when you only have "idTechLauncher.exe", and fails.

It's been over an hour now, so I just wanted to remind you to update the "pc-mod-preview" branch too.

[whole cedar]

theres a difference between the preview branch and public release?

[modest obsidian]

Updated this branch. Its not intended to be used anymore but I Realized we didnt communicate this well, so at a later time will do so. Thx

[atomic bay]

No. For about an hour, the "pc-mod-preview" branch was simply outdated (and nonfunctional) compared to the default branch, but it's been fixed now. Now both branches are completely identical again.

[haughty mica]

finally managed to make a functional parry system in the game

[swift lintel]

Awesome

[plush thicket]

WOW amazing work

[atomic bay]

According to https://www.reddit.com/r/gamedev/comments/1fk8pyc/steamworks_what_is_supposed_to_happen_if_you/, you can disable branches in the Steamworks Builds page, and then anyone using that branch will automatically switch to the default branch. That's probably what you'll want to do, then?

[prisma vector]

do mods work on steam deck yet

i saw there was an update

[atomic bay]

If you switch to Desktop Mode* and use a certain launch option, yes. Right-click Doom Eternal in your Steam library, choose "Properties..." > "General", and set the "Launch Options" field to the following (using +com_skipIntroVideo 1 to show how you'd combine it with commands/variables): SteamDeck= %command% +com_skipIntroVideo 1If the above doesn't work, then use this instead: env -u SteamDeck -- %command% +com_skipIntroVideo 1This will unset the SteamDeck environment variable before opening the launcher, which is how the game checks whether to bypass the launcher.
If you don't have a mouse connected, you may have to hold Steam/Home to make the right touchpad/joystick and R2 (or R1 on PlayStation) act as a mouse, in order to use the launcher.

-# * I'm not sure exactly what happens in Gaming Mode, but at least one person says that it's not optimal? 🤷

[errant peak]

Some WIP Screenshots of a level im working on rn 👀

[plush thicket]

Amazing

professional work

[errant peak]

Thank you

[fickle glade]

HOLY SHIT that's good!

I know it's mostly blockout but what you have already is great!

[whole cedar]

how can i get custom ai from the mod portal to spawn in my map? i can place the idai2 on the map but placing a tyrant in a custom target spawn (that only has entitydef gigatyrant in its properties) just spawns in a normal tyrant

[tight hinge]

looking great, I assume it is a final sin inspired level?

[errant peak]

yessir you are correct

[errant peak]

Thanks a lot, not sure if i will ever get to set dressing the whole thing but never say never

[tight hinge]

keep going man, love it so far

more people making maps is always great

[errant peak]

that is true

[errant peak]

thank you, i'll keep you guys updated

[tight hinge]

will be waiting, I haven't done much else on mine so I have nothing else to show

[haughty mica]

Is the gigatyrant in the aipoolnumbers and actorpopulation decls your map is using?

You can find the actorpopulation in any encounter, and the aipoolnumbers in the id_GameChallengeSinglePlayer (I believe) entity

[whole cedar]

i just setup the aipoolnumbers and actorpopulation decls, just to check, is this target spawn set correctly?

[haughty mica]

yes

[whole cedar]

i got the ai to spawn with a different spawn parent, probably not the intended way but it works, thank you!

[fickle glade]

Me and the boys on the 24/7 Hightower server

oh wait you made it

[tight hinge]

yeah lmao

[fickle glade]

I LOOOOOOOOVE LEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAN

[whole cedar]

thats neat

[tight hinge]

how did you get the original assets? I thought the mod portal couldn't extract .pk5

[whole cedar]

the package browser option in idstudio can

[thorn junco]

that dread knight asserting himself as the alpha by doing his natural stance

the A-pose

[halcyon stratus]

And why he ourple?

[tight hinge]

Oh that is awesome, then people can finally use my assets, without having to post the original ones

[tight hinge]

he drank da lean

[haughty mica]

You still need to post the original ones, the assets are probably from my Collection that I already updated for that

[tight hinge]

oh I see 💀

[haughty mica]

But you for sure don't need Nexus for that anymore

So that's nice

[atomic bay]

Quote from PC Mod Preview Update 2's changelog (https://idstudio.idsoftware.com/release-notes/2025/06/17/update-2), emphasis by me:

[...] [idStudio > "Mod" > "Package Browser"] can be used to export entire mods. If modders would like to make their mod available for other people to modify they can package it with the mod's raw assets. If they do not wish to allow this then it is recommended to only package the generated/cooked version of your assets. [...]

[tight hinge]

thanks, I'll update my asset mods eventually with the raw files

Hey, so I'm working on a weapon sound pack and if anybody has experience with the heavy cannon, I've been trying to figure out how to make the primary fire stop playing the default sound every other shot

Does anybody know how I can fix that?

[halcyon stratus]

Weird question but would anyone happen to have any Heavy Cannon skin mods? Nexus has like 6 and none of them I'm looking for.

[haughty mica]

Check the heavy cannon's md6def or projectile decls, see if the soundevent is there

[gray narwhal]

hey guys i have this error whenever i play with mods theres jsut mismatched text for stuff like option and wtv its rlly frustrating me cuz idk whats causing it and i dont kno what mod it is

ive been having trouble with eternal mods since forever is tyhere any reason to not jsut use the mod injector

[whole cedar]

check any mods that change text, some of them include the entire vanilla text files instead of just the modded ones which breaks stuff

[gray narwhal]

which mods classyfy as changing text

[whole cedar]

check mods with this tag

[frozen umbra]

is the modded instance a seperate instance of the non modded, or does it add mods to the non-modded instance?

[whole cedar]

separate

can encounter managers (or commit triggers) not be set inside layers? im trying to load layers after a wave has ended considering the player needs to go through the same spot but these specific entities dont load at all, grouping other stuff like func_animated or gui_text inside a layer loads them correctly

[atomic bay]

[...] whenever i play with mods theres jsut mismatched text [...] i dont kno what mod it is
You could disable half of your mods, and see if that fixes it. If it does, re-enable half of the newly-disabled mods. Otherwise, also disable half of the remaining mods. Repeat this until you find the specific mod(s) that cause(s) the problem.

[...] is tyhere any reason to not jsut use the mod injector
There are many "official launcher"-exclusive mods that can't be played with just EternalModInjector, including completely custom maps.

(Likewise, there are also many EternalModInjector-exclusive mods. You can use both types of mods at the same time, though, as EternalModInjector mods will apply regardless of whether you click "Play DOOM Eternal" or you click "Mods" > "Play" > "Launch with active mods" in the game's launcher.)

[frozen umbra]

oh, its called binary searching

[fickle glade]

I've been doing that

I looked at the sound event on the mod wiki, and it shows that the sound event plays duplicate sound files

that seems to be the problem

Problem is I don't know how DE handles ahving two of the same sound file

[haughty mica]

I'm not sure, I just checked with Winrar search and the only decl that has that soundevent is projectile/player/heavy_cannon

just removing it from that decl should just get rid of the sound forever, idk

unless you want to get rid of only some sounds in the soundevent, and in case of duplicates like that I don't know how to handle that besides modding the .pcks themselves

[gray narwhal]

still having issues atm what should i do?

now it says i have to reinstall the game?? this is rlly silly

[molten token]

Does anyone know why this happens? When I move the view, the structure starts to flicker (it always happened in my level, but before the skybox background was visible. To avoid this, I put a red structure in between, but it still looks ugly). Does anyone know why this could be happening and how to avoid it?

wtf, I just noticed that in the video it "doesn't blink" it only changes the structure and you can see the one below haha, well, does anyone know how to prevent this from happening or the cause?

It's the red wall in the background

[velvet acorn]

any news on steam deck support for modding?

[atomic bay]

For old, "unofficial" mods, EternalModInjectorShell works fine. For new, "official" mods, the PC Mod launcher/browser doesn't officially support Steam Deck, but see here: #eternal-modding message

[velvet acorn]

oh
thank you
does it still work if I switch back to game mode?

[atomic bay]

I personally see no reason for it not to work, but at least one person says that it's not optimal. Please let me know what your experience with it is.

[velvet acorn]

will do, thanks again

[plush thicket]

is this footage from the idstudio engine ??

if yes, what cmd you run the engine slowmap or devmap ??

[molten token]

The material is from id studio (it's called demon_door_purple_opaque) I'm running from slowmap (but in the final version and in the level I published a while ago that error also occurred) it's not something that can only be seen from my id studio (I don't know if I answered the question correctly or there's something I didn't understand haha)

[plush thicket]

Try to load the level using devmap, but the level need to fully bulit ,if you not using static lights you can skip the lightmap baking

[molten token]

Now I changed some textures and added the energy barriers on top, and this still happens, I don't really know why

[molten token]

As far as I remember, devmap should give the same error (before when I used devmap it gave me the same error) now making the devmap would take me about 2 full days because of the size of the niovel and I don't have the devmap created yet 🙁 (just a very old devmap)

[molten token]

Here I used devmap, you can see the same problem

[plush thicket]

Try to disable the distance dormancy of that fx you have

[molten token]

I changed the distance dormancy from 20 to 0 and it looks like this. What exactly is dormancy? Maybe I should set the large structure in the center to 0. Note that zooming out too much fixes the FX, but it's still very far away.

[molten token]

When I convert that entity to any visible texture it gives me the error, if I convert it to "emnergybarrier" it stops giving the error, it's as if that entity has a lot of collision range and the fx gets inside, because when I do that it is "fixed" but I no longer have "windows" and it seems that I am outdoors haha

[velvet acorn]

how do I play the bob-omb map?

[molten token]

I already "fixed" it, it's hard for me to explain, but the texture of the item that I had made big (the big walls that I always use in my map) apparently had very big dimensions and was very wide, I replaced everything with thinner textures leaving that entity's in "energybarrier" so that it doesn't interfere and it worked, since when I make another thinner item big it doesn't go over the FX that I put on top of it

[molten token]

the mario 64 mod?

[haughty mica]

Go in the extras menu, all modded maps are there

[velvet acorn]

only "credits" and "milestones" show there

the mod is definitely enabled

[whole cedar]

the mod description says you can start the map by creating a new save in any campaign

[whole cedar]

can mus.pck files still not be packaged in an idstudio mod?

[molten token]

Does anyone know why the light flickers or vibrates like that? I added some point lights and some spot lights, but sometimes when I move it flickers like that (I imagine this has happened to a lot of people). Does anyone know the cause or why this happens?

[plush thicket]

The lights might overlap with each other, try to be careful with putting lights, is all your light cast shadows ??

[molten token]

Yes, I have cast shadows on all lights, could that be the problem?

To "fix" this, would I have to move them so they don't "collide" with each other, so to speak? Or would I have to lower the lighting intensity? Or cast shadows only on some of them when they overlap?

[plush thicket]

yeah that a huge problem, you need to becareful using casting shadow lights

from what I see I don't think the map need lights like that the sky is bright enough, if you have dark areas just put a small light without casting shadow

use static lights will have no runtime performance cost but you need to bake the lightmap

[molten token]

Is it okay to add many small light points for dark areas while in static mode, even if they're spot lights? And do I use the "build light probes default" method to bake the lighting? Or is it done in a different way?

[plush thicket]

after lightmaps baking you can debug the lights, In this picture it using slowmap+lightmaps preview you can use slowcombomap, channel is light overdraw, red colors in that picture mean these area has will effect the performance and mean also there alot lights overlapping with each other usuall 10+ lights

https://idstudio.idsoftware.com/lighting-and-rendering/debugging

[molten token]

RIP hahahaha

[plush thicket]

is lightmap already baked ??

ofcourse you have test ingame see if there major fps issues

[molten token]

I don't think so yet, should I start the "buld light probes default" for that?

[plush thicket]

light probes step should be done after the lightmap baked

I assume you don't use static lights

[molten token]

i want to cry haha

The lights I added are all static except for one of them.

If a light is set to "dynamic" and I convert it to static, is it actually converted to static? Or do I have to create it from scratch as static? I had several dynamic lights, and I converted them to static with a second click.

I checked and I have them all marked in static light

[plush thicket]

you can convert any lights to static in the entity inspector check static lights, but that need lightmap rebake

you will not see results until you bake it

[molten token]

I don't think I've ever baked the light map. Could that be why they look red? My question is, to bake what you're talking about, do you use what's marked in blue in this photo?

[plush thicket]

these the light probes not the lightmap, open the build wizard you should see a bake lightmaps option that the one you need

again light probes added after the LIGHTMAPS baked

[molten token]

this???

[plush thicket]

yes that one

[molten token]

Man, thank you so much! You saved my life haha

[plush thicket]

Do the low quality just for iterate when you happy about results do the final bake in DLC_FINAL or high is good too

[molten token]

Will it take much longer on "high" than on "low"? Because on "low" it already takes me about two full days to render the map (that's why I didn't render until it was 100% finished)

[plush thicket]

Yeah just do it when done with the level , if low take you two days

[whole cedar]

@haughty mica can i ask how blood rite encounters are made? specifically how to setup an eternal demon and its buff bearers?

[fickle glade]

Predator Vision

[plush thicket]

TRUEEEE

[haughty mica]

use Spawn Buff Pod to spawn an ai/ambient/bearertotem, give it a tag in buffedai_label, and give that same tag in group_label of the specific demons you want to have killed to deactivate the ai/ambient/godtotem you're gonna spawn a few seconds later (you choose how long the delay is)

ex. the Totem has the "bearer" tag here so any AI with that same tag will be buffed

then give the ai/ambient/godtotem and the immortal demons the same tag (but different from the bearers), and use these to wait for the bearers to die before removing both Totems (give both Totems the same tag in buffpod_label)

"eternal_buff_deactivate_sound" is a sound/soundentity that plays "play_horde_progress_swipe" to notify the player when the Totems are gone

this AI is old as hell, I could update it to make it do the death sound automatically

[whole cedar]

no idea what i did wrong but both bearer and eternal demon have no buff fx at all, and the eternal demon isn't even immortal (btw dont mind the missing text in the video ill add the strings later)

[haughty mica]

go to the entitydefs of the Totems and set Allow Invalid Suicide to false, you might be placing the Totems in a place where they would normally be out of bounds

either that, or place them in bounds

[whole cedar]

alright ill check that, maybe its because the totems are placed in floor without clipping

[haughty mica]

if you notice, the Manc is playing the FX for half a second, so the Totems are definitely spawning, they're just insta-despawning

[whole cedar]

so editing the entitydefs fixed it, tysm!!! 🙏

[fickle glade]

Does anybody know what the info/cover entities do?

[oblique dirge]

hmmm let me see if i can help you

[oblique dirge]

From what it looks like it seems it has something to do with NAV i’ve seen them before, but I never really played around with them, but it seems like they’re use for either animations something to do in NAV mash and they’re linked to every type of demon in the game so does something to do with their location and where they can go

[lapis mulch]

Uh hey guys so is there anyway i can mod on steam deck cuz it’s on a build of linux and i’m stupid

are boss health bars hardcoded to their corresponding ai? for example could i give something like a baron or a hell knight a health bar like the khan maykr or the gladiator?

[polar night]

I'm old Modinjecter.

[haughty mica]

I think they're coded to their respective aicomponent (like aicomponent_gladiator) but when I tried applying it to another enemy (with changes) the game crashed so Idk

I only did one test years ago, maybe you'll have better luck

[plush thicket]

[whole cedar]

damn that looks good, the texture filtering is putting me off tho btw how did you setup an interactable without a lever animation?

[plush thicket]

I used a volume/use_proxy and I've added a the switch materials the off switch version, then I make a brush same size of the volume then apply the other switch I make It dynamic it hidden in default when you hit the switch it hide the volume and show the dynamic entity that have the on switch textures

[halcyon stratus]

That's endlessly fucking cool dude holy shit.

[hard tapir]

Whoa, otex in doom eternal is interesting

[atomic bay]

[...] the texture filtering is putting me off tho [...]
Modders can flag textures as point-sampled/nearest-neighbour-filtered/pixelated. (I don't use idStudio enough to know how, but I assume that there's a checkbox or a drop-down list for it in the material2 decl?)

[tight hinge]

Give this man a job already 🗣️

[plush thicket]

Just the textures, Level is my Design

[hard tapir]

Yeah I know, I was saying it's an interesting idea to use that texture pack in eternal

[plush thicket]

sorry, didn't mean that way, I just forget to mention that

I will package the mod as raw files, so people can use it the stuff, gonna make alot entitydefs, like Doors with classics textures,, Switches....ETC

[hard tapir]

Cool!

[ancient shard]

Thats really cool tho! Btw, i like the mix bettwen classic textures and new/modern models and textures!

[plush thicket]

These modern models just placeholder have to create my own assets with classic textures

[ancient shard]

Nice! Are gonna model them? Or just modify with classic textures the existing ones?

[plush thicket]

I will have to built them by myself with brushes and texture it, the I export these brushes as lwo

[ancient shard]

Nice! It will look amazing!

[plush thicket]

Final Results

[whole cedar]

giving a lot of quake vibes

[novel epoch]

how do i make the mods in the launcher work? I installed them, added them to active mods, but when I start the modded game through the launcher, the mods won't work (Only skin mods)

[whole cedar]

finally got it to work by assigning a duplicate of the dark lord's aicomponent_hud decl to an entitydef, the empty part of the bar specially looks a bit weird, but it still works, thanks for pointing me in the right direction

[ancient shard]

Am loving this! Can't wait to play it! :D.

(Am sucker for old textures and graphics ala Quake and Half Life tho.)

[plush thicket]

You will play remnant first

[ancient shard]

Is it allready out tho?

[plush thicket]

This month i hope

Cliping is almost finish, visibility also almost finished, the level has 2 Act's the gameplay of first act is finished

[ancient shard]

Nice tho! I will play it when it came out! Also i hope to finish my map this month too.

(2 months just modeling assets is crazy, but quite a fun challenge tho.)

[ancient shard]

Thats sounds good tho!

[haughty mica]

ki blasts are done

[polar nexus]

goddamn this is cool. it's like it was made in 90s or early 2000s. i'm a fan of that kind of stuff

[ancient shard]

Oooo thats nice! Btw, Nice First Person animations there.

[gaunt flint]

Guys, I just installed mods and I don't know why it isn't working, I installed only bob omp battlefield to test it out, but it won't work. I don't know what to do

Yes I did activate the mod before launching game

[atomic bay]

Does your Windows username contain any non-ASCII characters (such as accented letters like Ñ or Ü)?
If so, in the game's launcher, click on the gear icon at the top-right, click "Mods" on the left, click "Select folder", and choose a simpler folder path like "C:\DOOM Eternal Mods\".
Then, in the launcher's "Mods" > "Play" tab, make sure to enable the map/level mod that you want, click "Launch with active mods", and check the title screen's "Extras" menu for an option to start it.

[oblique dirge]

Hello everybody, I haven’t really talked in this chat in a while, but I’ve had a recurring issue that I’ve talked to multiple people about for a very long time. I cannot package my mods. I have no idea why and I am starting not to care that much about making maps anymore because of this issue every time I try to package my map it just says build error. I can bake my map, but I cannot package it. I don’t know why this issue is happening. It has been going on for almost a year now and I’ve tried to get help but no one has went as far to really know what’s going on. I thought I would come in here and ask, but I might get the same answers, but it is worth a try. I have so much in store to show people, but I can never get them out to show them I see everybody else’s map and I’m always like dang I wish I can upload mine. Hope y’all have a good day and bye.

[whole cedar]

you should try giving a trusted person your mod folder to see if that person can package it, it could be idstudio's problem

related to this last year i uninstalled idstudio for motivation reasons, env decls would not work and some other stuff too, after gaining back the motivation to make mods i reinstalled idstudio and all that stuff got fixed

[oblique dirge]

So should I just uninstall studio?

[whole cedar]

have you verified file integrity yet?

[oblique dirge]

I have not let me try that

[oblique dirge]

If you actually help me with this issue, I ain’t gonna lie, bro. I’ll pay you because people have been trying to help me, but no one can figure out the issue.

[whole cedar]

hey dont celebrate too early if verifying files and possibly reinstalling idstudio doesnt work i could try packaging the mod in my pc, if you want of course

[oblique dirge]

I mean, but I feel bad. I feel like that when I finish it you’re gonna have a lot of stuff to package and I don’t want you to go through that cause I know you’re working on your own thing.

The map is already baked by the way And it’s only the first part. I am doing a preview so when you see it, please do not tell anyone. Even though people can see our conversation do not show anyone please.

[whole cedar]

dont worry about that, i could do a test package (even including vanilla stuff) just to check if its idstudio's fault or the mod's fault

[lilac scroll]

not sure how to mod this game, just got it yesterday and only ghost of sparta works?

cant hur hur

[whole cedar]

check the description of each mod and see which skin is replaced

also i recommend not using too many skin mods at the same time some files may overwrite each other and look weird

[lilac scroll]

well how u get classic doom marine?

[whole cedar]

you can unlock it in the fortress of doom with 2 sentinel batteries

theres also a skin unlocker mod available in the mod portal

[lilac scroll]

wheres that?

[whole cedar]

its just called "unlocker"

[lilac scroll]

guessing its on nexus?

[whole cedar]

nope, mod portal

(so the doom eternal launcher)

[lilac scroll]

might as well call me blind bc i cant find it

"MIssion select unlocked" or smth?

oh nvm found it

[trail acorn]

I'm trying to download the mod injector from gamebanana but the site keeps timing out on me. Does anybody here have the file already downloaded?

[gaunt flint]

Thank you! I had non-ASCII characters, I changed to my HDD with a simple folder and it worked out perfectly

[trail acorn]

Anyone?

[whole cedar]

is there any way to avoid full map build from creating these shadows in overlapping clip brushes? im using dlc-final as build settings

[plush thicket]

are those brushes ??

i mean the wood textures

[whole cedar]

wood texture is just a big model with no collisions

[polar night]

Doom 3 eternal mod.

[molten token]

This is too epic, is there a chance of having this this year?

[molten token]

If you create a new map from scratch, with 3 things (as a test) for example the player start, a floor and a demon in the distance and try to package it and upload it to id studio (as a test of course) will it let you do it? To know if the problem is some change or entity that I add to the maps or is specifically uploading or packaging anything

[haughty mica]

the mod is in the Portal already, I update it periodically

[molten token]

I hadn't seen it, I'm stupid haha

[molten token]

Bro, this is too epic! Haha, with the Dragon Ball music and lyrics when you start the game

[lusty kestrel]

can someone help me with the eternalpatcher patches:

[kindred roost]

can i make custom weapons??(similar to doom 3 weapon mods and classic doom)

[tight hinge]

kinda but good luck with that

[kindred roost]

so hold on, I could like make a Dual wielded heavy cannon?

[tight hinge]

maybe, but I can't imagine how much time and effort it would take to make it even barely functional

weapon modding is a pain in the ass

I know from experience, it wasn't easy to make a replacement for the sentinel hammer, due to a lot of hardcoded behavior

[oblique dirge]

@modest obsidian -BUG- I finally figured out the packaging issue after a very long time with the help of @whole cedar here is everything that we figured out one sec let me send it now

1st test - Mod map files packaged, no decl files included - FAILURE
2nd test - Mod map files packaged (except blockout refmaps, no decl files included - FAILURE
3rd test - Mod map files packaged (except blockoutnew refmaps, no decl files included - FAILURE

6th test - One mod decl file packaged (env) - SUCCESS
7th test - Strings packaged - SUCCESS
8th test - Prefab maps packaged, no decl files included - FAILURE (Potential suspect?????)
9th test - Mod map files packaged (except maps/titanbodyblockout folder, blockout refmaps, blockoutnew refmaps, prefabs), no decl files included - LOOPED INDEFINITELY (ran mod packager for like 20 minutes)
10th test - Mod map entities file packaged, no mod map files and decl files included - SUCCESS

14th test - titanbodyblockout.map file packaged alongsides its refmaps and .checkpoints/.entities , no decl files and prefabs included - SUCCESS

(it was the prefabs, 100% confirmed, managed to package decls and the maps at the same time, also installed all remaining pvp packs so the models are there now, everything looks normal for now) this is from AlvaroMDK

[plush thicket]

packaging should be only for the main map file that it, if you have prefabs you don't have to package it, when it came for custom stuff, you need to only package the decls you modify if you have custom assets models, textures need to be packaged too

[halcyon stratus]

I don't know who to make the following humble request- please port the No Audio Ducking mod to IdStudio.

I'm not sure if the PCK injector even works anymore.

I feel very spooky

[craggy perch]

hey can anyone help i just got doom and i got this 80s slayer from launcher and it doesnt work and every other mod doesnt seem to work i have 4 mods in total

im kinda new to this i didnt even knew it got mod support

it doesnt even show any errors too

im kinda confused

[atomic bay]

Does your Windows username contain any non-ASCII characters (such as accented letters like Ñ or Ö)?
If so, in the game's launcher, click on the gear icon at the top-right, click "Mods" on the left, click "Select folder", and choose a simpler folder path like "C:\DOOM Eternal Mods\".

Also, for any mods that replace a weapon or Slayer skin/costume, you'll need to (unlock and) equip the original skin in-game to see the mod. For the "80s Degrees Slayer" mod, the launcher version's description doesn't say anything, but the Nexus Mods version's description says that it replaces the "Astro" skin.

[craggy perch]

oh crap thank you zwip

god bless you

[molten token]

Bro, I loved the "Hightower" map. I like that if they're going to make long arenas, they put checkpoints between rounds. The demons created by the community help a lot to renew the game's playability a bit, and the map is fun and looks good, haha

This Crusher is no joke, made it deal so much damage

I love the fact that you not satisfied with it being a crusher, but also made it burn the floor around it just because yes!

[molten token]

this is crazy

[dapper quail]

can a mod undelete my post

[swift lintel]

What was it?

[alpine pike]

Undeleting isn't a thing on Discord

[dapper quail]

you can check audit logs, copy and paste the post

[dapper quail]

questions relating to modding, trying to make the crucible 1 button to equip, swing, unequip

[alpine pike]

Message contents don't come up in the Audit Log, but yes you're technically right I could go find the message the bot logged and copy/paste it, but it's still going to have the same issue.

You'll need to figure out how to shorten it to not trigger the bot. I don't have control of the bot to that degree to really do anything to allow your message to bypass its filters.

[dapper quail]

bots usually don't delete mods posts for spam

[final python]

It got removed because it thought you were posting a massive wall of text

Trim it down

[dapper quail]

But I could just make the post in another server, take a screenshot of it, and post that here. Why even have a bot to remove giant walls of text? Had I had the forsight I would've done that. It's bad enough I've been poking these files with a stick for like a week and getting nowhere, came here to ask for help as a last resort, and then had to ask for help to undelete the post of me asking for help, and now I have to ask for help in such a way that doesn't provoke the bot to delete it. It's kind of absurd.

[final python]

or don't try trimming it, whatever

[dapper quail]

The world keeps turning

[oblique dirge]

I finally baked and optimize everything in the first part of the lvl while I’m working on here are a few images. If you would wish to keep it a secret to yourself for a surprise then don’t look at them, but for people that wanna know what I’m working on here you go a sneak peek.

Also, one more thing here’s a little cut scene for the level with the help of o_dey
Sorry if it’s really low quality

@halcyon stratus sorry for the ping but nobody else is awake and you may know what to do. Having some trouble in the Eternal channel

He just got the game, says it crashes after finishing Hell on Earth-screen freezes. He verified his game files. Idk what to do and Saleem is sleeping lol

[halcyon stratus]

I'm no expert but I would wager it's to do with his PC. What specs?

[swift lintel]

#doom-eternal message

[atomic bay]

My only advice is to verify the game files (which you already suggested), to update the graphics drivers (which @ Papaya is currently suggesting), and to double check that Doom Eternal is definitely using the dedicated/discrete NVIDIA GPU instead of an integrated Intel iGPU (but I think that it defaults to the NVIDIA GPU? I would update the graphics drivers before worrying about this).

It's especially weird to me that the first map works, but the second map doesn't. 🤷

[swift lintel]

Thank you🙏

Will keep you posted

[small gate]

this looks sick

[molten token]

man this looks amazing!

[oblique dirge]

Yas!

Yas

It is not out yet

It’s a three-year project I’m working on i’m not releasing just one level. I’m releasing a DLC type thing they’re going to be three levels.

I’m pushing the software limits

Thank you so much it’ll be a long time till I do another preview but a lot of people will enjoy this. There’s something for everybody in this level or this campaign it’s just gonna be hard cause I have school and exams

I will not say the story yet because this is nothing like the
Doom at all I can give you a hint. The first level is just strike people in the second level is something completely different along with the third one

To be honest, I think a ultra nightmare run would be interesting. The way the level is set up. It is very closed in and cramped in some parts so it forces the player to think before they go in.

Sadly, there’s no support for that yet and what do you mean by the first person to do this to make a level or what do you mean if I may ask?

I’m definitely not the first there are a lot of people that are working on theirs at the moment that I know there’s some people that make them already. I used to make only arenas but one day I got tired of that and I want to move on now I’m here.

But definitely stay tuned. A lot of mods will come out before mine and I’m really excited to see the community makes but for me this is gonna take a long time. I wanna make this experience that people have never seen before modding that change the way people see mods in the first place for eternal.

[molten token]

I fully support this! Have you been able to package your mods yet? Since I'm more of a fan of "full levels" than arenas, I'm very excited to know that we'll have more levels, along with the ones Saleem will also release

[oblique dirge]

I hope so I might release something on the side while you guys are waiting, but we will see.

[polar nexus]

this is so cool...

[oblique dirge]

Oh yas I can package stuff now

[next cliff]

Can anyone help? My mods aren't downloading. As in, they won't go past 0%

And my internet is in perfect condition

[dapper quail]

Is it possible to invoke a sync kill with the crucible by editing the animwebs/md6def without requiring an input? I figure there's gotta be actual logic tied to it and I'm poking at the wrong files. Trying to make the crucible like the chainsaw in that you press a button and it swings it.

[tight hinge]

maybe, I'm not exactly sure

I'd have to look at the chainsaw files for weapon, animweb and md6def

here's a little test I did when I was trying to make a hammer replacement, you could repurpose the same swinging animation for it

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1157125758767091863/1341567235143237652/Untitled.mp4?ex=68e8fc19&is=68e7aa99&hm=4a60f7844fde52f98c89f6062fa00c1b3d4510ec5c70077d459e0977b6a1e354&

[dapper quail]

I've been using a text editor to edit them lol, I can get it to equip/unequip in one press, melee seems to only impact, sync kills never happen.

[tight hinge]

There might be some ae_event needed for the animation perhaps

[dapper quail]

chainsaw spams a bunch of ae_FireWeaponRight but it doesn't seem to work for the crucible

[molten token]

How long do you wait for the download to start? Sometimes it takes a while. You might be having problems with an error in the paths you've selected or the folder names (this has happened a lot here)

[tight hinge]

perhaps the weapon type needs to be chainsaw for it to work then

[next cliff]

It used to start near instantly

Can you tell me how to identify and fix the folder problem?

[oblique dirge]

Do you have a thing called eternal modinjector on in your files by any chance?

[swift lintel]

Shout out to @plush thicket today, Hugo played his upcoming Remnant level in stream! Keep up the good work man, it looks amazing 🔥

[next cliff]

I have not used it

[oblique dirge]

I will try verifying your files to see if that fixes it

But that does not work then try to change the file path of your mods

[next cliff]

oki

[dapper quail]

I mean some sort of thing like this might be responsible problem is I can't find the file if it even exists

[dapper quail]

holy crap idk which one of these made it work but it works now, after editing the crap out of the weapon/player/crucible.decl and this md6.decl

[tight hinge]

sweet, could you show me in action?

[dapper quail]

this is what's working: ae_testGloryKill but it sometimes uses the chainsaw instead

[tight hinge]

good stuff, it should also be possible to remove the bring up animation too

[tight hinge]

in the animweb, you might want to change the nodes of bring up and bring down to have the passthrough flag

although, the respective ae_events for those animations might also need to be migrated

[molten token]

So I have the names in my folders, could you show us how you have the routes?

I personally have that disabled, maybe by enabling it you created some problems?

I understand that D:/mods doom eternal must have a short path, you should only have one folder and not several folders to get to the "mods doom eternal" folder as seen in my photo, you go from the disk directly to the mods path

[next cliff]

I'll try to see rn

[atomic bay]

I understand that D:/mods doom eternal must have a short path, [...]
This is wrong. The only problem with the default path is that if your Windows username contains any non-ASCII characters (such as accented letters like Ñ or Ö), then Doom Eternal can't load mods from it, in which case I suggest "C:\DOOM Eternal Mods\" because it's a simple path guaranteed to only have ASCII characters.

[next cliff]

this is the path to my active mods

[molten token]

So if you have several folders before arriving, it's not a problem? The guy who's having problems has his path like this... D:/documents/id software/activemods , isn't that a problem? I thought so, haha

[next cliff]

I just checked the Documents folder

all the alleged folders that the launcher has named apparently don't exist

What now?

[molten token]

Is it possible that the folders are hidden when they're in your documents? Do you have that enabled? To see hidden folders and files on your PC? There should be a "VIEW" option or something similar to see your hidden folders

You must activate "see hidden files or folders" I really don't know exactly what they are called in English.

[next cliff]

I do have hidden folders made visible

still nothing is there

[molten token]

If you still CANNOT see the folders, you probably have a non-existent path written in the active mods search engine and that's why you can't play. If you can already see the folders, it's logical to think that the problem isn't there. If someone else could help, that would be great, but I would continue trying to shorten the paths more, for example, make it D:/ MODS doom eterna... and so on

[next cliff]

So, what do you suggest that I do?

Just make new folders in a new folder destination and change the path?

[molten token]

Exactly (in any case, we already have photos here of what your routes were called before, as you won't delete anything to go back to how they are, it would simply be a matter of putting that route back and that's it) for now I recommend creating a new direct route in D:/ or C:/ or whatever your drive is called and go directly to doom eterna mods or MODS doom eterna, after creating it rewrite the route and try to install something (that's what I would do)

If that doesn't work, just delete that new folder, and rewrite your path to your previous failed path and we'd be back to square one haha

[next cliff]

I'll go ahead and make new folders and lead the new path to them

and if that doesn't work, then I'm just shit outta luck

[molten token]

Click on the path of your disk (for example disk C) I don't know which one you are installing on but it should be the one with the most space and create a folder that says "MODS eternal doom" then select that path in the active mods path finder on your mods portal, then search for a mod and press INSTALL for that mod, then start it to see if it starts

[next cliff]

alright

[next cliff]

It worked, it installed

[molten token]

Were you able to play it? Remember that the "Extras" menu appears to launch mods.

Well, it seems that he's already playing, I guess it worked haha

[azure anvil]

Hey guys I cant get to run doom eternal

So before uninstalling it will it be possible to run this on my zenbook? specs are 8gb ram and ryzen 5 7530u

[halcyon stratus]

Man I'd kill for a mod that replaces the Baron model with a naked Gladiator's.

True classic Baron.

[dapper quail]

I was messing around with those, tried like all of the ae_sync thingmabobs and perhaps I'm just editing the wrong file (because they didn't work). I also ended up trying something stupid like bind v _crucible _attack1 and making an .ahk script to spam v lmao, it sucks.

[fickle glade]

Are yougoing to include the iconic "TWEESAH" sound effect?

[haughty mica]

I can't recall what you're talking about but it might already be here, just drowned by the music

[fickle glade]

https://youtu.be/yhb8J3PzEaE

This

[haughty mica]

it's here already

[fickle glade]

oh

I didn't hear it tho

[haughty mica]

the one I got from SZ uses a lower pitch, and when using IT from the weapon wheel some slowdown still carries over, you can probably hear it better by binding IT to a key and using it like that

[fickle glade]

Ah

Yeah the music and sfx was definitely drowning it

[haughty mica]

With 2.0 having been released I made a full instructions page on Nexus since the Mod Portal didn't fit in everything about the mod anymore https://www.nexusmods.com/doometernal/mods/1650

Goku is now strong enough that most of the main levels are fully playable, would anyone be willing to playtest and try to break the mod as much as possible? I don't think I can spot every bug by myself anymore, too many systems

[whole cedar]

i have a question about this patch note, how did you get the game to automatically apply the custom skin without needing the player to do it themselves? perhaps it has to do with gameitem decls?

[haughty mica]

I used the MainMenu_SetCharacterSkin command

I gave myself the skin via the globalinitialwarehouse and then used a shell logic entity to place the console command in there and activate it

[whole cedar]

is it the podium trick?

oh ok so its this, kind of a stupid question but does this work on menu backgrounds that arent the default?

[haughty mica]

it works with all backgrounds

[whole cedar]

does idtarget_command even exist in idstudio? im searching for it everywhere but i cant find it, ive heard it was pretty common in legacy mods

[haughty mica]

it's there, there's just no search function for idEntities so it's impossible to find if you don't know where it is already

just put this in your folders

[whole cedar]

awesome, thank you!

[leaden mantle]

hey guys, is there any way to preserve my downloaded mods if I delete Doom eternal and want to reinstall it without losing them?

[atomic bay]

If you uninstall Doom Eternal through Steam, the mods will remain on your computer (both any "new" mods downloaded through the game launcher, and any "old" mods in EternalModInjector's "Mods" folder).
Also, any mods downloaded through the game launcher are added to your Bethesda.net account's "library", for you to easily find and re-download them in the future/on another computer.

[brazen jacinth]

is there a way to export demon models in idstudio for blender that includes textures?

[oak geyser]

When you export models, being it static ones, or animated ones (md6), idStudio will automatically export the albedo texture of every material used by the model. All the other textures of the materials however would need to be exported manually, and you would have to incorporate them manually into the materials in Blender.

[tight hinge]

slayer gate stuff

[molten token]

What is this and what is it for?

[whole cedar]

its a target entity that upon activation executes a console command

(or thats what i think it does)

[molten token]

For example, can it be used to activate some PHP programs you've created or to program directly in the console? Is it not available by default among the options offered by id studio?

[molten token]

or is it used to, when opening the console in real time when you are playing, create commands that work when you type them, commands that are not created in the game?

[whole cedar]

as far as i know its just ingame console stuff, for example a switch that activates a target will execute the command that its told to, for example "god" "give ammo" or stuff like that

https://wiki.eternalmods.com/books/5-level-modding/page/idtarget-command

[tight hinge]

idTarget_Command only seems to work inside of .entities files in the Sandbox

[molten token]

omg, that can be used to "activate" the change from slayer to a demon, I think they used it in a mod, for example "activate dreadknoght" and then put the command again to return to slayer

[tight hinge]

I had to modify shell.entities and make package a compiled file of it to be able to execute that

[whole cedar]

like i know what that means

[tight hinge]

Aka legacy modding

There is no idTarget_Command entity inside of the studio

You could also try executing console commands through logic entities, but I'm not certain if those work for Sandbox either

[molten token]

In Velser's "Hordamex" mod, is it possible to type console commands to go from slayer to demon? Is this command necessary? Or did they use something else instead? I intend to do that in my last encounter (I'll settle for just becoming a demon). What I don't understand is, did they have to use their map as if it were a multiplayer map? I mean, can that be done in a normal campaign level or should they have used things that Eternal multiplayer maps come with by default? Isn't the "idTarget_Command" command used for this or some other command?

I have the impression that in hordamex commands in sandbox as such.

Google Translate lets me write anything but what I'm trying to say hahaha gg

[whole cedar]

thats only for debugging and only works in idstudio, so definitely nope

[tight hinge]

Yeah thought so, shame

[molten token]

Is Velser here? Or do you sometimes reply in the mod community?

[molten token]

So there's no way to activate a logical entity with a "normal trigger" that writes a command, such as "activate the marauder demon now." For example, by pressing a console key in the final arena, the slayer will become a demon? The only way would be to write a command in the console?

[brazen jacinth]

ah ok thx

[whole cedar]

i just know that the co-op mod has entities that upon activated turn you into a player demon, so its absolutely possible, no idea what these entities do tho LOL

[molten token]

It would be great if someone could share that information with us haha

[haughty mica]

@whole cedar @tight hinge You can do console commands through logic in the Sandbox, that is the entire reason Goku is even allowed to work without changing any of the .entities or the demons or their aifsms

Instead of doing Execute Console Command, you do Spawn Entity on an idTarget_Command, and link it to an Entity Activate node, you can download the mod and extract the pk5 in the Studio if you want to learn more about it since I'm using logic to its full capabilities, the code should be readable enough

[haughty mica]

Probably not what you mean by PHP programs, but there is a command that allows you to activate external .txt files that contain sequences of other console commands

[molten token]

Would it be possible to activate that command that activates external text files when passing through a simple game trigger?

[halcyon stratus]

God how I'd kill for a mod that recreates this.

The key artist and modeller said they were considering giving the zombies two handed weapons like this, but ended up reusing 2016's rigs instead to save time and so they were all given arm cannons again.

Also just me or is the hair different in this render?

[haughty mica]

You can either have that trigger target the idTarget_Command, or use the On Trigger node in logic

[tight hinge]

that actually looks awesome

[oblique dirge]

You have no idea

[tight hinge]

pretty much 99% of the animations were reused from 2016, the hellrazer animations were identical

[polar nexus]

what custom level is this?

[tight hinge]

bruh

I've been posting pics quite often of my level

[polar night]

Tron slayer

[ancient shard]

It looks cool tbh, but cursed at the same time to me! But it would be intressting to see this concept in action.

[ancient shard]

Looking good! :D.

[dapper quail]

does anyone know what is responsible for the fake lighting on enemies? the corpses appear darker and I wish for the enemies to also not be so lit up

[dapper quail]

Hell yeah

[molten token]

Man, I have a question, in a mod they made the dreadknight playable, if you had to make the dreadknight yourself, would you do it from scratch simulating the PVP dreadknight? (Something like what you did with Goku) or is there a way for id studio to already use the dreadknight? For example, use data, entities, and scripts that they officially used to make it playable in PVP? Since those files or data must exist somewhere, I would like to know how they really did it in hordamex

[polar night]

Culutst Marauder?

[tight hinge]

light rigs most likely

[dapper quail]

That mod no lights version edits those but the other ones edit other things instead 🤔

[halcyon stratus]

Huh what.

[haughty mica]

the Dreadknight definitely can be used in the Studio already but I never attempted to do it, I saw an actormodifier that maybe turns you into the Dreadknight if you give that item to yourself if you wanna try

[plush thicket]

Is the retail hell on earth ??

[molten token]

Are you referring to this? I can't add any. I don't know if it's because these entities are only there by name and aren't actually created, or if they're locked in the editor

[haughty mica]

they're not entities, they're an inventory item to give to the player

[molten token]

Well, I must say I don't know how to use it then, haha. I don't know what to add. Is it done with a target and within that target should I select the item? I don't know how to add an inventory item to the player

[haughty mica]

there's numerous ways to give it to the player, do the command "give <decl path>", make it a pickup in the world, make a logic entity with Modify Inventory etc

I believe actormodifier is how the player turns into the Revenant in Cultist Base so it should work

[molten token]

Should I use the "command.decl" you left for alvaroMDK for this?

I'm a noob, sorry

I have no doubt that o_dey already knows how to do this and can surely make even the sin icon playable lol

[haughty mica]

Yes

[molten token]

Do you think you could try making the dreadknight playable? And then tell me how you did it? I can wait if you're late, no problem, but I don't think I can do it myself. I have the final boss and arena created, but I need the dreadknight and to call for help with some missiles that fall from the sky, very similar to what ofwine did in his mods

please

[haughty mica]

all you have to do is make a logic entity with a Player Become Demon node and choose the actormodifier of the dreadknight

and also a Give Demon Card Deck node, choose the dreadknight one there too, for example this activates the Dreadknight 5 seconds after the logic has been spawned

[molten token]

OMG

man you are a genius

[molten token]

How do I open or view this menu? I added an "info-loggic." I guess that's it, right? I don't know how to view or open this photo menu

[haughty mica]

I just looked at this old mod https://www.nexusmods.com/doometernal/mods/991

[haughty mica]

open the Logic Designer

[molten token]

Is this mod available on the mod portal? It looks incredible, and I've never seen it before

[haughty mica]

no

[molten token]

It's a shame this mod isn't on the mod portal 🙁

Where do I open Logic Designer? In Tools? Or do I activate it in Views? Is there a tutorial on that somewhere?

[haughty mica]

Windows > Editors > Logic Designer

top left

[molten token]

Well I opened it but I don't understand how to add the node hahaha I clicked on "search all nodes" but nothing happens

I'm sure this information will help many mods

[haughty mica]

File > Select Entity and choose the one you put in the map

[molten token]

It worked. How long did it take you to add the variables? I don't know exactly how to add them

[haughty mica]

Right Click > Create Node

https://idstudio.idsoftware.com/gameplay/gameplay-framework/logic-designer/index

[molten token]

he he

[haughty mica]

depending on when you want the Dreadknight to appear you don't need a Timer, there's many event nodes

the Begin node activates everything linked to it as soon as the logic is activated, or you can use Receive Trigger or On Activated and call for an entity in the map that you would activate for that node to trigger

[molten token]

I'll explain my idea, in the final arena there will be 3 phases, Vega has turned me into a demon and I must survive 2 phases, when the boss demon is "blinking" it will disappear (actually I will kill it haha) and deadly missiles will fall from the sky, if one touches the player they will die instantly, that's why I need the dreadknight to reach the 3 random "Capsules" to protect myself, in the third phase I will add an environment with damage so that the slayer appears in the center and cannot get out and the "damaged" boss will appear as the last phase and when it is blinking I will finish the encounter as if it "died"

[molten token]

My idea is that by pressing "a console" I will become a dreadknight, and in the third phase of the encounter, add a trigger in the encounter manager or call a trigger with target Relay (I suppose it would be done like this) that activates at that moment the trigger that will activate the logic that will turn me into a slayer again, could this be achieved more or less like this?

[haughty mica]

make it so pressing the console activates a target/relay entity called "transform_dread" and when you wanna return back activate "return_slayer" into actormodifier/pvp/slayer/default. The names don't need to be those, it's just an example

[molten token]

I understand, so it is better to use "on activated" instead of "timer" in that case.

[molten token]

I created the realay target as "transform_dread" I put it in my console target, but when I press my console it doesn't transform, what am I doing wrong or what am I missing?

[haughty mica]

that's not the console entity I see, that's the world entity

show the console entity

[molten token]

this console???

or this console?

[haughty mica]

the entity, looks like you did put it correctly, show me the target relay transform dread entity

you might need to put it at Count = 0, or Repeatable = True or some changes

[haughty mica]

try getting in the map and input the console command "trigger target_relay_transform_dread" and see if that works first

if it doesn't, the problem might be somewhere else

[haughty mica]

entity not found means that relay is not even spawned in, maybe you have it in a non-active layer of the map?

I've done barely anything with maps in idStudio, can't help you much from here on how to have that relay spawn

unless the name of the spawned entity isn't actually target_relay_transform_dread, sometimes there's a number right after that, try "trigger target_relay_tr" (without pressing enter) and press tab to see if that entity is in there

[molten token]

i dont understand

[molten token]

If you type in the console " target_relay_transform_dread" or " target_relay_transform_dread" and press tab instead of enter, nothing happens

[haughty mica]

did you type trigger before that?

[molten token]

Maybe " o_dey " can help us, but I don't know what to call him or label him, according to everything you explained here I'm sure he could already do it haha ​​or maybe he already knows

[haughty mica]

tab gives you a list of what you can input in the console, if "trigger target_relay" tab and target_relay_transform_dread_xx isn't there at all it means the entity just isn't spawned in

[molten token]

Maybe I have it configured differently, since when I open the console and press "tab" I don't see any list.

[haughty mica]

maybe it's something stupid like you need to reset idStudio for the relay to be spawned in properly but again I haven't worked with maps so I can't tell what the problem is

[molten token]

I'm sure I'm doing something wrong haha

[molten token]

I think my mistake is here, I never selected the dreadknight anywhere.

I just added my logic which is called dreadknight, the target relay which has the name dreadknight, but I haven't really selected the dreadknight as an entity or I haven't called it I think I don't know how or where it's done

[molten token]

Could it be that right here I should select drea<dknight playable or something like that?

man it worked!!!!!!!!

hahahaha nice

@haughty mica Thanks for helping me man, I was able to make the dreadknight playable, now I'll try the console thing again haha

It also worked when pressing the console, thanks man!!!

[ancient shard]

Btw Great map! :D.

[molten token]

Thanks man, I didn't know anything about Logic Designer but I had seen it. When I looked at the options it has, I was impressed by the amount of things it offers, haha

[ancient shard]

NP Man! Yeah, it has many things to do tho!

[tight hinge]

[haughty mica]

I just saw Hugo play the unreleased master level for Hell on Earth made by the devs and they thought I was the one who made the level 💀 💀

reading mod descriptions is too hard

someone tell me if they figure it out later in the stream cause I ain't watching further

[molten token]

Where can you watch that broadcast?

that stream*

[haughty mica]

just search hugo martin dark ages on youtube

[molten token]

Hahaha I already saw it, of course, they only saw the name of the person who uploaded the mod. I imagine they were in a bit of a hurry during the transmission. I will put in the comments who made the mod and that Nayrham only uploaded it and that they take a look at the Goku mod that Nayrham did make

[plush thicket]

I said that 4 times they never catch it LOL

[halcyon stratus]

God that's so cool.

Could these be repurposed for the other soldiers?

[tight hinge]

Maybe if someone who is really good at retargeting skeletons makes animations for them

[ancient shard]

Ooooh! Now they work properly!

Also i loved the sound sync tho!

[ancient shard]

ALSO Now i noticed that your Nvidia UI is in Portuguese xD. (Kinda offtopic.)

[halcyon stratus]

Oh gotcha.

[halcyon stratus]

Yeah well except for the ragdolling which is a shame. But at least the animations are 100% functional and finished.

[ancient shard]

Ragdoll i think its a beast completly diferent tho.

[halcyon stratus]

Custom ragdolls aren't a thing yet.

[ancient shard]

We would need an external tool or even automatic generation of physics on Id Studio itself.

[ancient shard]

Funny enough, i they could do some plug-in for Blender and other 3D Softwares for making Softbody physics. (Like Source Engine had for Blender.)

[halcyon stratus]

I remember 2016s ragdolls being funny a lot of spinning ankles and heads.

[ancient shard]

But i think its good that its all fixed! Because even i still struggle to understand how bones and importing 3D models works on Id Studio! XD.

[ancient shard]

I allways loved them! Felt like 2000s Ragdolls.

Satisfying xD.

Out of curiosity, I watched stream number 14 and saw the Remnant level. Is that a Saleem level? Dude, that looks fucking incredible!

Since I don't speak English, I don't know who they thanked, but it sounded like Saleem to me, haha

[halcyon stratus]

Can you link to it?

[molten token]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ritgy2sH2aE

[halcyon stratus]

Thank u.

[molten token]

What they explain there is that only they have the mod, it has not yet been released publicly on the portal

I'm sooo happy to know that incredible things are coming in the mods! The mods that have come out so far have made me very happy haha ​​it's great to know that great levels are coming from saleem, o_dey, glapagos, and well my level that I really like and I want it to be perfect to add it to the list hahaha

[ancient shard]

Same here man!

The modding future is pretty bright! :D.

[molten token]

I've seen other modders making complete levels too, I'm even lost in the names, the ones from UAC Mars Core looked great haha

[ancient shard]

Yep! I mean, lots of them i didn't play, since am busy making my map tho, but am glad that people are getting into it!

I will make more tutorials too!

[molten token]

I'll be looking forward to those tutorials! The tutorials you've made here have been very helpful. For example, I didn't know I could duplicate a spawn group cylinder for my encounters, and I saw it in a Galapagos tutorial

[ancient shard]

Btw, i think Galapagos did all of those encounters tutorials but yep! You can duplicate any spawn group. (It is actully better, since you will need it for be more organized on encounters tho!)

[plush thicket]

🙂

I hope that so

[halcyon stratus]

I know ye I've played it.

Hugo gave some pretty valid pointers, I personally didn't feel the demo needed any fine tuning. I steamrolled through it lol.

[plush thicket]

Hugo give his subjective opnion he said that before he played it I respect that, The things is who the people who play these stuff, most of them a hardcore players, and majority who played that demo think my encounters is underwheleming, Might do some minor changes to make encounter flow better, but I am happy about my level difficulty

[ancient shard]

Model mancubus 2016 for eternal mancubus

[halcyon stratus]

@frosty steeple Sorry to bother, any way to have the chainsaw be equippable on its own as a separate mod/mutator without all the other stuff in the mod you uploaded?

I've been longing for something like that since the early modding days and I'd appreciate it a lot.

[frosty steeple]

No prob, I'll see if I can work on that. Might be a couple hours, but I'll try. Would you rather it as a separate mod entirely or as a selectable version of the main mod?

[halcyon stratus]

Whichever's easiest I guess? Probably as a separate mod so people can find it easier. 'Selectable chainsaw'.

Also I don't know if this was intended but I play with the classic overhaul mod and the shotgun (which typically shoots slower with it on) was back to vanilla firerate.

You do anything to the weapon .decls other than shifting the FOV?

[frosty steeple]

If I recall, a couple of the same .decls that determine weapon behavior are the ones that determine FOV as well

It's why the old Viewmodel FOV mod by COGS was incompatible with plenty of mods

[molten token]

Hugo probably thought of the mod as a base campaign level or something he would have done or suggested at the time in Doom Eternal, when it comes to mods I think it's more about what the person who makes them likes and shares them, I thought the level was incredible!

[frosty steeple]

https://mods.bethesda.net/en/doometernal/details/eb5af5e7-159c-4b86-904d-239875a4b27e/Selectable_Chainsaw

There you are, lmk if this works!

[halcyon stratus]

Sorry just got back, got distracted but this works like a charm.

[frosty steeple]

Awesome :D

[polar night]

Instant button chainsaw to pull out.

Like 2016

[molten token]

@haughty mica is there a way to make, for example, the turrets very difficult to damage for the slayer, but the marauder's axe eliminates them in one hit? or that the boss's blue shield is immortal for the marauder and can only be damaged with the plasma rifle and when removing the shield, it is immortal for the marauder and can only be damaged by the slayer? This would force the player to switch characters between games, I also wonder if there is a way to increase a demon's damage? for example, if a doom hunter missile hits me, does it lower half of my life or almost all of it? I mean, are these things possible with the logic designer? in the video for some reason that I did not understand by moving knobs the "shotgun" damage kills almost everything with one attack that's why it looks like that, what you see in the video is a gameplay idea, but I don't know how to control it, is it done within the properties of the demons? Or with the logical designer? it is very important for my final encounter

At least it worked well for me to change into a demon for just a few seconds hahaha my idea is that the exchange "capsule" is blocked for a few seconds after using it to force me to be as a slayer for some time

[halcyon stratus]

Dumb question but, is there a mod that swaps out the SSG model for the Marauder's?

[whole cedar]

isnt it just the ssg with the unused mastery hammers and no meathook? sounds easy but seeing doomguy just hover over a demon would look weird

[haughty mica]

You can change the Turret's resistances from its entityDamage decl, the Doom Hunter shield's from aiComponent_Sled and his damage by just giving him a totem

[molten token]

A traditional dice boost totem? Do I need to create an actual boost totem with spawn? Or is there a way to select "boost totem" without creating it, or a way to make the spawn boost totem only affect the doom hunter and no one else?

[haughty mica]

In the encounter, use Spawn Buff Pod and give its tag to only the Doom Hunter

[molten token]

nice! I didn't know you could do that haha

[molten token]

What you're telling me about the turret isn't within the Entity Inspector, it's searching the Asset Browser for the turret's "decls," right? The problem is that I type "turret" and 95 results appear. How do I know which one is for the turret? Is there a specific damage decl I should change? 👀

[molten token]

In the spawn target of the BuffPod spawn, should I select the name of the "spawn" that generates the daemon? Or should I put the name of my daemon's AI there? (it was the name of the spawn not the daemon haha, id studio crashed 4 times when I put the name of the daemon thinking that something inside it was wrong, but it was fixed by putting the name of the spawn inside the buffpod spawn target)

Hello guys, I wanted to ask you guys a question what type of videos would you like to see tutorial wise that aren’t mean going over in the wiki I will list a few things
Triggers that nobody uses yet?
Logic detector the basics?
Proper level design or decoration tips?
If you have more suggestions, let me know

[whole cedar]

decoration tips 100%

[molten token]

animations, like the one you worked on with o_dey 😮

[oblique dirge]

Sadly, I will not be making a video for that. Maybe when we are done with the full project maybe but that is far away from now. It’s just too complex to talk about. Sorry

It’s not just studio you have to do it and you have to do it in multiple software’s and there are so many bugs that we don’t know about

[molten token]

Ok, we'll be waiting for that tutorial to come out! Although I'm planning on making at least some simple entrance animation in my level, maybe I'll ask for help from o_dey or saleem who also made one in ascended 4.0, from what I've read before I think things like FX and video are made in blender and other programs and then you try to import them into id studio, I'm not sure

A good tutorial would also be the optimization, since I saw many comments complaining about "mods in eternal doom" about how everything was running at 30 fps and many people didn't play them for that reason.

[frosty steeple]

Anyone know where I would need to look to make Flame Belch stun enemies? I wanna make it work like it did in the QuakeCon 2018 demo, where it stunned a couple groups of Soldiers. I've tried setting it to stun and burn with the different damage .decls I found, but it didn't seem to work.

[haughty mica]

you need to change the enemies' aiDamageStateGraphs

[haughty mica]

you need the entityDamage decl for the Turret and the aiComponent_Sled for the Hunter, duplicate them into another name, change it and apply it to the specific spawned demon in your map

[frosty steeple]

Thanks, I'll take a look

[whole cedar]

damn its nice to hear youre working on that, if i had any idea on how to do that i would have done it already LOL

[molten token]

Is aiComponent_Sled a cancellation? Should I simply duplicate and rename it, and my daemon will be more powerful? Or should I do "something" with that decl? I mean, this is new to me. Should I search for the decl in the asset browser and double-click it? Or something? Or should I view them from my PC folders in base-decltree

👀

[molten token]

Let's see, I think I understood something, the "aiComponent_Sled" is not currently equipped on my doom hunter, what I should do is search for this decl, duplicate it and give it a name for example "aiComponent_Sleddoomhunter" and by adding this to my demon spawned, will it be more powerful?

[frosty steeple]

It looks super complicated LOL

I've never done anything with aiDamageStateGraphs

I'm not sure if I'm supposed to be creating a new node (or nodes?) here, or if I'm supposed to edit one of these existing ones. If I'm to create new nodes, how would I go about connecting them to one another?

[haughty mica]

aiComponent_Sled is equipped on all Doom Hunters by default, if you're that behind on decls you should read the docs

https://idstudio.idsoftware.com/getting-started/about-decls/index, https://idstudio.idsoftware.com/tutorials/ai-mods

[haughty mica]

depending on the type of stun you want, edit one of the links that already has the SDPS condition and add the flame belch damage to it

creating new links is ALT+Hold Left Click

[frosty steeple]

Alright. I'll experiment a bit then

The kind of stun I want is something like this:
https://youtu.be/CGq8Ee2gOe4?si=1om2_ctvX6T0DeBR&t=1386

[haughty mica]

that might be an unused animation, if you really want them to be stunned for multiple seconds you'll have to make new nodes and probably change the aiPainGraph too

haven't gotten that far myself

[polar night]

Unused demon in eternal clut level is one from dark ages where some at church

[frosty steeple]

Alrighty, dunno if I'll be able to figure that out by tonight lol

I'll keep it on the backburner, then

[charred nova]

I think those stun animations are still on the game files
https://youtu.be/LTB_4mOJhow?si=2FAaspZZBZUwU11j

[frosty steeple]

That's interesting, I'm surprised Whiplashes have an animation for being set on fire

[molten token]

I think I understand what it is, o_dey helped me once with this decl thing for something else, I don't remember anything haha ​​I just copied and pasted what he told me

[molten token]

What you were telling me about editing turret damage is here? To make it affect only this particular type of turret, do I need to create a new decl like this, give it a name, and add it to my turret? But this is where I should edit it, right?

[molten token]

Why does it tell me to go to Fodder Imp here, but then it tells me about the Hell Knight? I don't understand

If I go to entitydef - ai- fodder - imp decl, no hell knight appears

[spare saddle]

My doom eternal gameplay has never felt better without mods

This infinite arena mode mod is a work of GOD

[molten token]

I think I got it. Is it here? I duplicated this and those options appear. How exactly would I make it weak to the Marauder's Axe but resistant to all of the Slayer's damage? (I've been doing this for hours haha)

I think so, mnop I'm sure

Now I don't know how to apply it. Should I select it within the "entity inspector" of my turret? Or would the only way be to duplicate my "turret" and create the new entity called turretredeyes and leave it only with the decl? I'm not sure

[haughty mica]

select it within the entity inspector

[polar night]

Ballista with bfg ammo

With bfg orb

[molten token]

These are the properties in the inspector entity of my turret, but I only see decl to select lighting, FX or targeting, where would the damage decl be selected here?

[haughty mica]

you can search for it below Inherit and Class

[molten token]

Mmm, should I go to inherit from my turret? And there put instead of what appears there (which appears to me as turret), should I write there the name of my created decl of red eye damage entity? Or should I add something to the "class" because I clicked on inherit but it doesn't change the class, the class appears locked to me or I can't edit it or name it in any case, I'm kind of dumb with these things

[haughty mica]

no the search bar is literally right below Inherit and Class, search entitydamage there

[molten token]

I try putting entitydamage or defaultredeyes (my decl name) on both sides, and nothing happens

[molten token]

Man, I finally found it! Thanks so much for your help, haha, you're awesome! I just had to activate "show def-parameters" or I couldn't see anything.

To fight a demon and put the skin on it, not for me to have it as a demon (if there is the option to use it as a demon, I would also like to know)

People have done that with EternalModInjector-based level mods in the past... but idStudio doesn't have a "warehouse" (customisation) asset pack, so I don't know whether the editor would be happy with referencing a non-existent/"game-exclusive" model while working on the map. 🤷

[spare saddle]

Infinite Horde Mode ❤️

[manic shuttle]

Does anyone know if theres a console command that unlocks everything, like not just weapons, but all maps and campaigns so you don't have to replay them when playing with mods?

[plush thicket]

No.

[manic shuttle]

Then is there a way to practice my quick swaps with like everything?

[plush thicket]

I recomend this mod, you can practice on it, there also many challenges you can choose which challenge you want

[manic shuttle]

thanks

[manic shuttle]

I just didnt see it, but i dont have dlc though

[boreal badger]

Hi, I’m an environment artist and I’d like to study the amazing level art done by id. I’d like to know if it’s possible to open and fly around the levels of the campaign using idStudio? Thanks!

[muted bobcat]

just type noclip into the console

[oblique dirge]

If you need help with anything else, let me know

[boreal badger]

Thanks for the noclip tip, but I’d ideally like access to the levels in editor form in order to see the different modular assets and props being used, the lighting etc!

[atomic bay]

All of the Campaign, BattleMode, Horde (including Reclaimed Earth and The Holt), and tutorial maps have asset packs that contain the full maps, ready to open, view, and edit in idStudio.
The The Ancient Gods maps also have asset packs, but only individual models/textures/objects, not the full, pre-assembled maps just yet.

(You'll need 500+ gigabytes of free space if you want to install all Campaign asset packs. The asset packs contain the original, raw textures instead of reusing the game installation's lossy-compressed versions, presumably due to idStudio's original "in-house" development-only(?) nature.)

[molten token]

For now? So, is there a possibility of DLC coming as complete, pre-assembled maps in the future? 👀

[atomic bay]

The only official statements are that "building/distributing versions of [these] map[s] is currently prohibited" and "[modders] cannot build and play DLC content wads at this time".

[boreal badger]

That looks like potentially my best option, thanks a lot! I'll probably reach out with more questions when I get there. 👍

[oblique dirge]

So you are a decorator for games?

[boreal badger]

That's right

[oblique dirge]

What game?

[boreal badger]

Most recently I've created environments for Oblivion Remastered and Ninja Gaiden 4!

[oblique dirge]

🤯

[oblique dirge]

Why are you over here? You should be at a game studio my guy.

[boreal badger]

Yeah I work at a game studio!
Just out of curiosity I recently started playing Doom 2016 and Eternal and after learning about idStudio I figured it'd be a good way to see how the guys at id create the levels. Modding tools like DSMapStudio and idStudio are a handy way to reverse engineer how the level assets are textured, organized etc

[oblique dirge]

So you make models or does somebody make them for you?

[boreal badger]

Depends on the project but usually I make them and place them in the editor yeah

[oblique dirge]

I’ve been wanting to become an a environment artist for a while. I have zbush, but I’ve been working on my level in school. I just really haven’t had time to learn it fully.

[boreal badger]

That's awesome, I'd say it's good to start with a rather small project and complete it you'll learn a lot this way.

[oblique dirge]

Thank you are you gonna be making a level or are you just coming in here to see what’s it about?

[boreal badger]

It sounds like a lot of fun to try to create a level but damn I really suck at these games 😆 I reckon I probably need to familiarize myself more with the gameplay in order to understand what makes a good arena if you know what I mean
In the meantime I'd like to study how the team at id created the levels

[oblique dirge]

Can I add you?

If you don’t mind

[boreal badger]

Yeah of course 👍

[fickle glade]

Proof?

[halcyon stratus]

If only I knew how to animate or reposition models I'd try hand at making a classic SSG reload.

It pains me that we didn't get a classic SSG reload animation in neither 2016 nor Eternal.

[molten token]

If you play the base Doom Eternal campaign from start to finish I think you'll be fine, the game actually turns you into a pro player by the end of the campaign

[stiff rivet]

my fav doom eternal mod of all time

[rough parrot]

Which one is this?

[stiff rivet]

Pl_hightower

[muted bobcat]

cursed weapon fov

the map was surprisingly fun though

but the geo was the biggest enemy😭

[charred nova]

That image has always unsettled me

[plush thicket]

wtf is that ??

[oblique dirge]

a cat

[plush thicket]

I know it cat, but didn''t think there something weird about ??

[oblique dirge]

🤷‍♂️

the cat is ok

[plush thicket]

I don't know about that bro

[oblique dirge]

sorry well idk man mmm i well just dlee it

[oblique dirge]

sorry man i did not know😔

the user kafeekatze , He asked the same question and had a debate with Nayrham about it; if you scroll up the chat a bit you can see it. I don't know if they managed to do it.

[molten token]

and here*

[stoic pine]

pretty cool stuff

[tight hinge]

reworking the intro for my level (again lol)

[halcyon stratus]

OUUUGHHHHHH.

Cant wait.

[tight hinge]

this level will never be done at this point 💀

[halcyon stratus]

Bro is sweating in front of his PC everyday trying to flesh out every bit of detail in the level.

[tight hinge]

this

[halcyon stratus]

You're going to approach 2016 early level tiers of detailing at this rate.

[tight hinge]

hey atleast I'm finally happy with the result of this part so that is a plus

[halcyon stratus]

Before you know it you'll be making vents and crawlspaces.

Take your time with it really it's no pressure.

It's not a competition.

[tight hinge]

oh I know, just really want to make this level really feel official with new shit and all that

great progress in these couple of months

[halcyon stratus]

It does show its very visually appealing and cohesive.

In spite of all the gray in the textures themselves.

[tight hinge]

think it fits the whole space level vibe

[whole cedar]

is there any way to show an int variable in the logic designer as a text object in the map? tbf i have no idea what im doing so if someone could tell me if thats EVEN possible i'd appreciate it

[oak geyser]

Certainly possible. There's various ways this is could be done, all have their pros and cons. One option are custom HUD elements, as can be seen for example here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ODAfxNVX0XA

The problem with this option is that it requires the game to run in dev mode in order to be able to send arbitrary, dynamic values to the HUD/SWF, as it requires to run dynamically built console commands.

If you have a fixed number of waves though, and the only dynamic value is the wave number, then an option could be to create a bunch of target entities of type idTarget_Command (IIRC they can execute commands with dev mode disabled) with commands to send fixed values, one for each wave, and then trigger the target entities from logic according to the current wave count.

In a similar fashion you could build a counter from actual in-game objects (like a scoreboard or whatever), showing/hiding/moving them according to the counter.

[whole cedar]

alr this sounds like the best option, thank you 👍

[plush thicket]

did you built that class ??

[oak geyser]

It's actually a library with functions, not a class, but yes, I did.

[haughty mica]

@oak geyser would you know of a way to make a custom HUD element that's just a combo counter? I tried making one but I didn't know where to begin so I kept working on what I knew

[oak geyser]

What exactly would a combo counter be?

[haughty mica]

something that says x1, x2, etc. up to x50

could there be leftovers from 2016's arcade mode maybe?

[oak geyser]

I mean, what would a combo be exactly? Damage combos, like idk, Puch+SSG+Ballsita?

[haughty mica]

it's for the Goku mod

it already has a functional combo system but there's still no visual way for the player to know how far the combo is in

[oak geyser]

I see. Sure, if you have a value available in logic that represents the combo status, then it shouldn't be a problem. The same limitation applies as mentioned earlier, game either needs to be in dev mode to set values to a HUD element dynamically, or there would need to be a bunch of command entities (never tried the latter though, so I'm not sure about possible caveats).

[haughty mica]

I use an int variable

[oak geyser]

If you tell me how it should look like, visually (maybe you have some graphics cooked up already?), I could try creating a custom element for you, or modify one of the existing ones, whatever would fit best.

[haughty mica]

the timer bar is not necessary (it would deplete the combo when empty), I hid the Blood Punch swf cause the way the mod handles BP is way different than vanilla so you can change its swf however you want

[oak geyser]

I see, sounds like it's effectively the same as the kill counter that I was using in the example above, where you get a kill, then you have a few seconds to get in another kill to increment the counter, and if you fail to get one in time, the counter resets to 0.

Should be easy enough, I'll give it a shot, but it will take a little bit, I have like 39 other things I need to take care of currently 🙃

[haughty mica]

thanks, also unrelated but do you know if there's any difference between Property Variables and Variables in logic? I got no clue, they seem to function identically, I don't need this info for anything but curiosity

[oak geyser]

Property variables are exposed externally, they will show up as configurable properties in the entity inspector for the relevant logic entity.

[whole cedar]

is there a way to activate a trigger hurt that ignores brink of death? im trying to add an instant death pit with "damage/triggerhurt/kill_player" but it leaves the player on 5 health

[oak geyser]

vega please, it's just some text bro

[oak geyser]

Maybe vega likes me posting an image instead... I can't test it right now and I don't remember what exactly was needed, the ignores, the damage mitigation, or the damage values, but this kills the player no matter what.

[whole cedar]

is that a damage decl?

[oak geyser]

yes

[whole cedar]

nice, ill give it a shot tomorrow

[slender quest]

@haughty mica can you tell me how to make weakpoints of revenant and mancubus unbreakable?

[haughty mica]

I think it's in their gorecontainer decl

[whole cedar]

works perfectly, thanks!

[molten token]

nice music! Did you make that music yourself or did you get it from somewhere, man?

[oak geyser]

I made it myself, I was testing the new custom music track support that was introduced with the last update.

[molten token]

Man, this is incredible! And it sounds quite similar, especially the guitars, to the original game music. Did you record the guitars yourself for real? Or did you use a MIDI guitar simulator program to make it?

I mean, did you record the guitars yourself or did you use MIDI? I'm guessing you probably use a VST for both.

[oak geyser]

Nah, I don't have any real guitars laying around, all I'm slapping is a MIDI keyboard. So yeah, it's a VSTi, Native Instruments Electric Storm Deluxe.

[whole cedar]

you mean this? is it possible to set custom loops? if so it would be really useful for me

[molten token]

nice work! It sounds pretty good, did you just do the mixing or did you also master it?

[oak geyser]

That's what I'm referring to, yes. Not sure what you mean exactly by "custom loops", but it's possible to control cue points, transitions, fades, etc

[whole cedar]

i mean as the audio parts that actually loop, for example the only thing they fear is you has that synth (???) sound that plays when entering heavy state and doesnt play again during the entire thing

[oak geyser]

Oh OK, yeah, absolutely possible, that is controlled by the sequence, the middle window there in the screenshot, you can freely define which music segments play in which order, how many times, etc.

[oak geyser]

I'm doing everything myself... also I'm lazy, so I'm doing mixing and mastering at the same time in the DAW.

[molten token]

Haha, I do the same thing. I do the mix and put the mastering plugins on the master track, but I've lost the Wave plugins I had and I no longer have a "limiter" or the linMB plugin I used to analyze the music and correct details. Do you use any limiter?

[molten token]

Is this part of id Studio?

[oak geyser]

Depending on the situation, sure, the "limiting" solutions I use most are Cubase internal Brickwall Limiter, Ozone's Maxmizer, and bx_clipper.

[molten token]

bx_clipper is by brainworx? I think I can get this

[oak geyser]

No, that is WWISE (no link because vega is a little whiny baby)

yes, it's brainworx... I think I got it with a Cubase upgrade, I don't remember

[whole cedar]

what version of wwise are you using? not sure if relevant but opening some of the wwise projects included in idstudio gave me this warning

[oak geyser]

Oh yeah, the version is actually very relevant. For the music mods you should use a 2019.2 version, otherwise you will run into compilation problems. Personally I've been sticking with the exact version the WWISE project was created with (open the .wproj file in a text editor, you'll find the version number at the top), that is 2019.2.5.

There will be warnings about missing plugins when you load the project in any case, but they can be safely ignored, as they aren't relevant for the sounds in the project.

Also, when you compile the PCK for the music mods project, you need to have the environment variables for the 2019 WWISE version installation set. If you only have one WWISE version installed, then you don't have to worry about it, but if you have multiple WWISE versions installed, then you have to make sure the 2019 vars are set before doing the building.

[oak geyser]

Oh, and another caveat that I totally forgot about.. but I think this is actually the last one... at least for now 😄 You need to modify the ModWavs\test.wsources file, it has apparently been built with the dev's local filesystem in mind, so the root path configured for the external sound files is set to S:\ghost\game\base\sound\ghost, and that will result in a build failure, because that path doesn't exist on your system. You can either completely remove the Root attribute, or replace the value with a single dot, both will tell the compiler to use a base path relative to the .wsources file.

[molten token]

wise is free?

[oak geyser]

Yes, it's free for personal use. The free version however is limited to I think a maximum of 200 sounds. It's possible to apply for a free full license, it's meant for indie devs, but it requires to register an actual product, it's not really suited for modders. I wanted to ask them if they would consider offering similar full licenses for modders, but I kinda forgot about it 🤷

[molten token]

Is "wwise" like a DAW, like Reaper or Cubase? Does it allow exporting the necessary format for mods in Doom Eternal?

[molten token]

I'm looking at the page and I'm impressed with everything I see, haha. Plugins, compatibilities, I don't even know why it says "platforms" and PS5 is listed. Seriously, I didn't even know something so complete and focused on video game creation existed. Although I only saw versions for download from 2024 or 2025, is it possible to get the 2019 version you mentioned on the official website?

I think you understand now, you just need to add the 2019 variables. I'm going to download it.

[oak geyser]

I mean, in a very, very, veeeery abstract sense, maybe you could make a comparison here and there to certain common DAW features, but it's very, very different to a DAW. You can define sequences/playlists of audio segments (samples) for music tracks, you have signal chains and routing with buses/aux sends and what not, effects etc, so if you know how to use a DAW, you'll probably have a slightly easier time to get into it, but still... it's very different, it's completely focused on game integration 🙂

You can download any version through their launcher app.

[molten token]

I'm going to install it right now, haha!

[molten token]

Do I have to download Audiokinetic to install it?

[oak geyser]

Yes, the Audiokentic Launcher is what you need

[tight hinge]

Berserk glory kills for the Hellrazer are now working!

[molten token]

Which packages should I select? To have what I need to work with Doom Eterna, I mean

[oak geyser]

That's the "correct" selection, you want to author for Micrsooft Windoofus.... however, you have the wrong version selected!

[halcyon stratus]

Oh no, is he gonna be okay?

[molten token]

I'm glad you asked, haha, thanks man!

[tight hinge]

as in he will actually gib once it is finished? maybe, I'll finish all the animations first and then I'll work on the gore probably

[halcyon stratus]

No as in I hope he can recover soon.

:3

[tight hinge]

oh 💀

[halcyon stratus]

:3

Berserk anims from 2016 would be cool.

[tight hinge]

😐

they are from 2016

[halcyon stratus]

No I mean, for the rest of the enemies.

[tight hinge]

ah

[halcyon stratus]

Eternal only has one, two at most per enemy which is uh.
A bit lame.

[tight hinge]

eh it can be done, if anyone is willing to lose their sanity 💀

[halcyon stratus]

I guess they were trying to save time since it only shows up once in the entire game.

[halcyon stratus]

Blood will spill.

[molten token]

Which "deployment platforms" should I select?

[tight hinge]

it would be much easier if Revenant (2016 exporter) wasn't such a terrible program to export animations

[halcyon stratus]

I remember hearing about how bad the tools were I had figured they had improved over time.

Would be a dream come true if ID decided to release 2016's assets for idstudio.

[tight hinge]

lol same

[halcyon stratus]

I want the entire campaign ported over to Eternal.

Pain.

[oak geyser]

Now that you ask again I'm actually not sure if I'm mixing this up with something else... actually I think you don't need to install any deployment stuff, but only the Authoring package

[plush thicket]

placeholder for now

[molten token]

So I leave it as it is in the photo? (everything you see there)

[oak geyser]

Yeah... looking at my installs, I don't have any deployment stuff installed, only the Authoring package

[molten token]

Thanks for the help, I feel like a man with a new toy haha

[oak geyser]

You're welcome... have fun loosing your sanity, idStudio and WWISE docs are your friends now. You may need to download the offline docs for WWISE btw, I've just noticed that the old 2019 ones seemingly aren't available online anymore, at least the links I still have in my browser history aren't working anymore 🤷

[molten token]

I assume you're already installing it offline

👀

[oblique dirge]

What have y’all been talking about? If you don’t mind me asking

[whole cedar]

do gui_text entities glitch when they are too far away from the camera or have a big scale number? ive also tried messing with swf scale hoping it would eliminate the problem but it doesnt seem to affect anything?

[oblique dirge]

Bro, I’ve missed so much. What the hell😭 🙏

[whole cedar]

LMAO ive spent like the last week trying to recreate a stupid idea i had

[oblique dirge]

How have you been man? I haven’t really been talking to anyone lately. I kind of been busy with life things.😅

And also, was that software you’re using what does it used for if you don’t mind me asking

[whole cedar]

wwise? its pretty much used for exporting custom audio in a format idstudio recognizes

[oblique dirge]

Oh that’s pretty nice

[oak geyser]

I never dared to blow anything up by x700... are those multiple separate GUI entities? Maybe there's some Z fighting going on? Just shooting in the dark here, I have no idea how that would manifest with semi-transparent GUIs, if at all. I've seen similar "stuff disappears based on angle/distance" before, but it was with animated models and particles. 🤔

Funny stuff like this https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1247553548997365876/1399529635452293182/2025-07-29_00-34-16_sure_why_not.mp4

[whole cedar]

i made a logic script that shows/hides gui_text entities based on units and tens, each is separate 0 to 9 text entities and 10-20-30, etc correspondingly, definitely not z fighting since text entities never overlap each other, if i cant find a solution i'll probably just resort to using dynamic entities with number textures slapped on top even if the low resolution is too noticeable

[whole cedar]

wth youre literally in front of it

[molten token]

Incorporate custom music into the game and create sounds and environments, connect audio with the game and make it dynamic

Even if you don't create the music within it, you can paste your mp3 track there to work with
