Hello everybody, we released a mod in the meantime while we’re working on our giant project this map was made in about two weeks and there was four people on it I hope you enjoy this journey of a map we made and have any complaints about it. Just let me know. I’m probably not gonna fix it to be honest with you. Good night.

[tidal current]

@ocean hinge @amber crown @glad marsh Got Launcher and Knife Left, then will start putting on the Demonic Runes and such

[tidal current]

As you can see I am very bored lmao (Just playing around with the mesh

[molten token]

Hahaha, nice! I've never played Roblox, but let's try this right now

[halcyon stratus]

Finished it, really cool.

No idea why you'd ever want to play this on night mode though. I like being able to see what I'm killing.

[molten token]

I just finished the Roblox mod and I thought it was incredible! I loved that you can choose between day and night, the custom secrets with the designed figures (I liked that for an encounter mod it also has secrets, so you can enjoy it twice as much), the music is perfect! A touch of jazz respecting Mick Gordon's music, capturing his style, and the fact that it changes between day and night is an extra bonus. The battles seemed very well designed to me, and the mod looks great in terms of level design! It has an aura

[tidal current]

@glad marsh @amber crown @strong tapir

All that is left is to add the demonic Runes and sigils from 2016 same as to how I did for the weapons

But that is for tomorrow

[vernal dagger]

Still work to be done on the skybox but the arena is finished 🙂

Does anyone know if iW1CKED is in this group? I think his mods are really good and I wanted to know if there will be more or if he'll finish the Subzero mod

[polar night]

cold blood punch?

He is in the group, but he’s just a play tester. If you are wondering about the project we are working on.

[opaque thunder]

Is there anything left to mod in this game?

[oblique dirge]

Wdym?!

[opaque thunder]

I’m just looking through the library and don’t know what else could be done mechanics wise. Can we use inputs to build a new mechanic?

[oblique dirge]

You can, but it would be very hard. You gotta remember Doom Eternal is kind of new to mods. So there’s not really much out right now, but just give people time and I promise there’ll be more out.

[molten token]

Who can help me? I set up a console and its target was the name of my door (it works fine with Maykr doors, but not this laser one). I set the initial state to unlock to open, but nothing happens when I activate the console. What should I do? This is the door

[amber crown]

Bro what are you using to do this

[tidal current]

Substance Painter

[atomic bay]

I don't think that we have any full-length custom campaigns modelled from scratch, hand-animated new boss encounters, total conversions, nor "give the Stone Imp sparkly glitter-coated pastel fingernails" mods yet. (We do have other enemy reskins, though, so if you mean types of mods, then we have the latter.)

[glass verge]

@tidal current

[tidal current]

OH SHIT

[amber crown]

bro idk HOW people do such good work in substance

[tidal current]

It's relatively simple to learn, took me a couple of days to learn substance and then once you get going you can make some really good stuff, you also learn how to save time for the future and such

The program itself is easy to understand

[amber crown]

Yeah. I use it alot. I still don't understand it. I want to make textures that clean for my doom avis on vrchat. any tips?

[tidal current]

Youtube is your best bet

For nearly all of my skins I pretty much recolor the masks I got for weapons so it saves time

[oak geyser]

Play the map boys... it just received some bug fixes and stuff. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=etL7VLEaotM

@whole cedar I loved the Cyber ​​Grind mod! It's one of the best games I've played in terms of gameplay, and it's really fun that the arena changes between rounds. However, in round 11, when the arena regenerated, the ground where I was standing didn't recreate at the right moment, and I fell and died :V. If the Slayer fell from the sky every time a round reset, this could be avoided, haha. And I'm surprised you couldn't integrate the custom music? We were able to integrate it perfectly in the Roblox mod, Perhaps they could help with that

[whole cedar]

the thing is unlike super oof nest i am the one who packaged cybergrind and has the audio problem, if someone else packaged cyber grind i bet it could've worked

[fickle glade]

@whole cedar

I was playing Cyber Grind and for some reason this specific setup TANKED my framerate

[whole cedar]

is it only that arena?

[fickle glade]

Yes

All the other ones stay around 100

[whole cedar]

wth thats just a bunch of brushes

im gonna check it later

[fickle glade]

Do you think it might be something to do with jump pad fx?

[whole cedar]

ive seen arenas with more fx that run well

[fickle glade]

Hmmm

you should still look into it

[opaque thunder]

Is there brush optimization in idStudio? Like deleting unseen faces?

[whole cedar]

pretty sure the engine does that by itself

[opaque thunder]

Well if it doesn’t that could lead to poor performance faces that need to be removed by the mapper.

[tidal current]

You like the weapon pack?

[fickle glade]

Yeah it's pretty nice

[tidal current]

Glad to hear that

@glad marsh @amber crown @strong tapir lil teaser for my next pack

[fickle glade]

😁

[fickle glade]

Blue Lux

I like it

[serene ermine]

that would be actually extremely fun tbh

[tidal current]

Navy Lux but yuh, close enough
Going for style of Lux SSG as I adore it so I also reskinned Lux Ballista to match

[molten token]

Hi, I just wanted to suggest something for the final version of the "mod portal." Just like you added tags to help you find mods faster, you could do the same for launching mods in the final version. It could have an option to add mods to favorites, or the ability to customize and organize everything into categories like "Cosmetics - Custom Maps - Legacy Maps - Weapon Packs - Classic Maps," etc. Or maybe we could create our own lists. This way, we could organize everything and play more easily. If I can't remember the name of a mod with so many installed, it takes me ages to find them. I imagine it'll be terrible in two years! Haha

which will add it to the "start mods" search option

Now I know this isn’t doom related but how do you turn off melon loader on windows 10😭😭😭

I can’t get it off😭

[somber brook]

Steam game btw

[amber crown]

I hate when that happens

[halcyon stratus]

???

[somber brook]

🫩

[tidal current]

Usually this is not an issue. However, because I replaced knife and launcher with ones from cultist I do gotta make the 1p textures as they may look the same but are totally diff textures
At least I now know for next time like with Violet Rune-Scarred Slayer

[tidal current]

@glad marsh @strong tapir @amber crown Just got done with arms for 1st person :3

[tidal current]

Thanks man, I'm gonna go ahead and start working on legs
I'm using the Eternal slayer kit by Vanquish and it helps me save a ton of time

You can find it on Nexus Mods, just search Kit in Eternal mods sections on Nexus

It does somewhat bully my pc but it's worth it since it saves me an insane amount of time

[amber crown]

When I redownload eternal once I get more room on my computer I'm definitely getting one of your mods they always look nice.

Of course I don't know how to put anything from Nexus mods onto a game I only know the built-in mod stuff from the game itself

Well more like the steam page

[tidal current]

What I meant is
He made a kit for Substance painter that lets you save huge amounts of time in making slayer textures

Took me from 70 hours for making my last 3rd person textures to 20

Yes it is that useful

He just uploaded the zip containing everything to nexus, mb for not clarifying XD

@amber crown https://www.nexusmods.com/doometernal/mods/1653

If you wanna talk with him and such he's in both modding discords (Eternal and 2016+ Modding servers respectively)

[amber crown]

OH thank you!!

[steep vapor]

i think u r in a wrong game

[vernal dagger]

Back to techbase aesthetics I go 🙂

[halcyon stratus]

Anyone ever thought of giving items a trickling wave shimmer effect? Like in TDA and 2016?

Always annoyed me how items in this game are just fullbright LIGHT MODE ON all the time. It's very garish.

[oblique dirge]

Bro that looks amazing man

[tight hinge]

peak

[molten token]

looks really cool!!

[whole cedar]

you mean like these?

[glass verge]

That looks amazing dude, happy to see more level modders :))

[halcyon stratus]

No, those just get rid of the item glow altogether. In 2016 and TDA health, armor and ammo pickups have this trickling wave highlight effect for visibility, in Eternal they're just static full bright.

Some items do use the effect I'm talking about, like Argent Crystal pods and Gore Keys. I wish there was a mod that added the effect to every pickup.

[opaque thunder]

Not sure If it works the same but items in doom 2016 snapmap with snaphak we add renderparms to achieve the glowing wave effect on items. Maybe items in eternal can have the same effect this way. No idea can you mod items (idProp2)?

Within the decl inspector should be a renderParms section for items I would think.

[whole cedar]

do you edit the pickups themselves or their material?

[deep drum]

hello

[opaque thunder]

In 2016 yes we can add renderParms to any entity with a model. It’s a property of renderModelInfo. We do not edit the material itself.

But idk how it works in Eternal. I’m just not involved in idStudio yet.

[opaque thunder]

i mean im in idstudio now and i don't even know how to place an item.

[plucky dagger]

If someone can help me that will be cool . Im trying to install mod for DOOM eternal but when I launch the game with steam the mod launcher load after the game . When I try to load the mod with my DOOM eternal open , it opens a second one which can't seem to load further than the ID software logo . Can someone help pls ?

And also is there a mod to get all multiplayer achievement ?

there is nobody anymore bruh

ping me if you know anything to help me

[rough parrot]

You can't have two instances open at the same time, if you're saying that you have eternal and the launcher open you need to close the game before you open the modded game through the launcher

[plucky dagger]

But if I close the game the launcher closes too

[pseudo igloo]

whoa, big idStudio update:

SteamDB info for the patch shows a looot of changed/updated files

[opaque thunder]

This today?

Seems to be alot of wads

[pseudo igloo]

yessir

lots of version 2's of existing asset packs:

[opaque thunder]

i've reached a problem. Wondering if someone can help me. Trying to apply materials to a brush just applies white solid material in world camera? Any ideas?

[opaque thunder]

its like this when playing too. All the textures are missing. What do I do?

[whole cedar]

same thing used to happen to me, thats probably in an asset pack

[opaque thunder]

Hmm. Well all textures are white I’ll try uninstalling the asset packs for beginner tutorial maps but that shouldn’t make a difference. The materials don’t exist in world editor or map tests preventing me from building maps.

[whole cedar]

i dont think that specific material is in the beginner asset pack, its probably from a campaign mission

[opaque thunder]

@whole cedar I don’t have any of the campaign mission asset packs installed.

[whole cedar]

that material is in art/tile/uac so try downloading some like mars core or arc complex

[opaque thunder]

You mean the asset browser doesn’t include any materials outside of asset packs?

[whole cedar]

it does include some like blockout grids and some models

theyre located in something like art/tile/common

[opaque thunder]

Why the heck would they be listed. I’m just trying to follow the simple tutorials they said nothing about downloading the map assets from campaign.

[whole cedar]

yeah these tutorials are really basic anyways

[opaque thunder]

So try tile common area?

[whole cedar]

yes theres some materials in there if im not mistaken

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEJDpIjXgfdKpA_0z0e8Yl76e10oYZvRF

these are the only tutorials available

[opaque thunder]

I was on idStudio.idsoftware.com doing those tutorials.

[whole cedar]

well obviously apart from the text tutorials

[opaque thunder]

Sure. I’m surprised there’s not more basic info to the windows and keyboard shortcuts or how to add items to the map. Do you know how to add items?

[whole cedar]

you need to right click in the world edit tab

theres stuff like pickups powerups

[opaque thunder]

this is how its done in Doom 2016 the highlights at least in snapmap we enter a string for the renderParms property itemlist. I've tried doing this with an armor pickup with the model changed and it doesn't appear to work so i must be doing something wrong.

pic:

maybe deprecated not sure

this is on a weapon model in 2016 it does the wave effect

like a waved highlight

[opaque thunder]

is the above what you mean?

I wish I could figure out this stuff.

[opaque thunder]

@plush thicket are you the one and only saleemzir? Sorry to tag but thought you might know if I have to download all assets to get the materials that are displayed in the asset browser to correctly show up in world camera.

[plush thicket]

Yeah, you should see all the map assets materials in material2 folder you will find them material2/art

[opaque thunder]

But I have to download every single campaign level asset to use them or is my idStudio bonked?

I’m surprised we can’t import the materials only. Shouldn’t we be able to make custom materials?

[oblique dirge]

OMg

[plush thicket]

You can dude, just read the docs

[oblique dirge]

mmm yo

[opaque thunder]

Alright, Thanks.

[opaque thunder]

That’s not what I was referring to as I thought that included more than just materials. If the materials are in the campaign assets then I now understand that is the only way to get them.

Someone told me to download the asset packs for the campaign but there is this and I assume this is the base

[halcyon stratus]

Kinda hard to tell from a static image. :P

This is the VFX I mean. Subdued outline, upwards shimmer.

[opaque thunder]

Yeah that’s the highlightparms doing that. Sorry my static image was a dark red and not a video. I’m not sure how to get them working in eternal idstudio.

[opaque thunder]

@halcyon stratus the above attachment is where they would be added. #eternal-modding message

[halcyon stratus]

Maybe look at the Argent Crystals and Gore Keys? Like I said those two have the shimmer effect applied.

Not sure if Mod Bots do.

[opaque thunder]

You could try adding it to the health or ammo. I figured it would work on any render model. But maybe not.

[opaque thunder]

Can I ask you a question. How did you get doom classic pose in the dark ages? Console command?

[halcyon stratus]

https://www.nexusmods.com/doomthedarkages/mods/27

[opaque thunder]

No idea why that option was pulled from settings.

[halcyon stratus]

Probably couldn't account for the shield being missing. Deemed it too important to disappear from the player's POV.

[opaque thunder]

Oh so the shield disappears? Yeah that would explain it.

[halcyon stratus]

It's not missing from the game, just not visible on screen with centered weapons on.

[vernal dagger]

I'm not sure how materials work in ID studio, but this shader is just a fresnel effect with a scrolling texture

not sure how hard that is to create in ID studio though

[oak geyser]

That outer glow is the "Surface Sheen Color", and the moving highlight is a tiling mask in the "Tiling Mask 1" property. There are related render parms for surface emissive tiling masks, namely for tiling and speed, but they seem to have no effect, not sure why 🤷

[halcyon stratus]

Hell yeah that looks great.

If only the highlight moved a little slower for parity with the other two games, but yeah you're pretty much right on the money. Good to know it can be done.

[halcyon stratus]

Honestly no idea why the FX is turned off for Eternal to boot. Maybe they thought it would be too distracting or something but I don't see the point, aren't pickups meant to be easy to spot under every condition?

[opaque thunder]

Is this on any entity with a rendermodel or is this a special entity? I noticed the name world pickup wasn’t sure if we could select the pickup and do this on the right click context menu in world edit/canera.

[oak geyser]

Unfortunately it seems that the speed is hardcoded. I took a look at the shader code, and it simply doesn't incorporate any outside parameters for it. Modifying the shader might work, but every time I've touched any of them it just crashed the sandbox 🙃

[oak geyser]

These are properties of the material that the model is using. The "World Pickup" is the material template.

[opaque thunder]

Right so is that a global change or done per entity/per map? Sorry for asking I’m still very new to idStudio.

[oak geyser]

Modifying a material is global, all meshes that are using that material will inherit the change. If you wanted a changed material to apply only to certain instances of an entity in a map, then you could for example duplicate the material, modify it, and use the remap material property on the entity instances in the map to swap out the materials that the mesh is using with your custom modified one.

[halcyon stratus]

Wait, pickup_panning_strong.tga?

Isn't this implying a light version exists?

[oak geyser]

Yes, I made the strong version myself, the default mask is pickup_panning.tga, but it's super faint, almost invisible on especially the ammo pickups.

[halcyon stratus]

What the hell man, I reinstalled the game and the launcher didn't remember my loadlist.

Now I get to manually redownload my mods and rebuild it. Not too happy about that.

[atomic bay]

The game launcher's "Mods" > "Library" page should still list mods that you've previously downloaded (I think?), so at least finding them again shouldn't(?) be an issue.

Do you use Windows or Linux? On Windows, uninstalling the game won't touch your "C:\Users\[Username]\Documents\id Software\activemods\" folder... but on Linux, Proton/Steam has a virtual C: drive folder for each game, and that gets deleted without warning when uninstalling games. :scared:

[halcyon stratus]

I didn't actually uninstall the game, I went into the root DE folder and deleted everything and reverified files.

I must've deleted a folder that kept track of my mods or something. Not quite sure.

[atomic bay]

That won't touch your user documents folder either - but it will delete the game folder's text file that says where mods (and idStudio projects/asset packs) should be installed.

In the game's launcher, click on the gear icon at the top-right, click "Mods" on the left, click "Select folder", and choose your previous mods path - if you remember where it was. (If you never changed it, then it should already default to the same folder as before, though. 🤷)

[halcyon stratus]

I did all this just for the mod injector to still complain about an outdated version of the .exe.

Oh I'm stupid the injector got updated again. Nevermind.

Now it works.

[ancient shard]

I have an question tho, its about the newer V2 Resources packs. I saw they are smaller in size compared to the older ones. But do i still need to have de V1 Packs? Or i can delete them and use the V2 without a any problem?

[oak geyser]

In theory the V1 ones shouldn't be needed anymore, except for two for which no V2 ones exist, Basic Level Design Tutorial Maps and Graveyard - Combat Arena Example.

[ancient shard]

Allright then! Thanks man. I was worried about still needing them for maybe missing files and etc. 🙂

It can be done via logic, using the Toggle Body Reaction node to enable a certain reaction, and then using the Play Body Reaction node to play the enabled reaction.

[peak harness]

how do i enable the console commands like god and noclip in the modded version of eternal?

[oblique dirge]

press this ~ on your keybord and then just put noclip

[oak geyser]

It depends... in the official mod support sandbox, noclip is enabled by default. Meathook is needed when using the vanilla Eternal version with Eternal Mod Injector.

[swift lintel]

It wouldn't let me when I tried it awhile back

Saleem had to help me

[oblique dirge]

That’s what I was thinking

[swift lintel]

I thought it was supposed to but for some reason it didn't

I think the only single command that worked was killai💀

[oak geyser]

Not sure about the very early sandbox versions, but by now, all the debug commands/cvars are enabled out of the box.

[swift lintel]

I guess dude can try it out ~ and see if it works now. It was maybe three months ago or smthn when I did it

No enemies are spawning on my end. The maps are completely empty.

[harsh vapor]

What file would i need to find and replace for custom Main menu music?

Also, does the game need to be running in the background? I know game deving does it, but it seems impractical if you only have 1 monitor

[plush thicket]

https://idstudio.idsoftware.com/audio/index this docs explain everything check all the tabs

[harsh vapor]

That is too much info for a replacer mod and no terminology knowledge. I guess ill either wait for someone who knows what to do or Ill have to live without it.
Thank you, anyways

[plush thicket]

Tbh, I never did it, but all I know it been explained in docs I haven't try it by myself

[plush thicket]

I mean if it work for you, like again I never tried to mod the audio before

Again for the second time, I have no knowledge about audio modding

did you not check that, from what I saw it have what you want https://idstudio.idsoftware.com/audio/audio-file-modding-by-wwise

[harsh vapor]

I only want to replace the main menu icon of sin music with When the Shadows First Lengthen.
It wouldve taken me less time to do that modding og doom and i didnt need to read anything to do that. (I know there is a huge game and engine difference but a file could still be an easy thing to point out and replace without the excessive technical jargon)

[harsh vapor]

No problem.

[opaque thunder]

Wouldn’t sounds from battlemode be in a separate resources file?

Did you check the pvp_ resource files for battlemode?

[opaque thunder]

I’m not at my pc to check.

[molten token]

I have a question: to simply replace the main menu theme music, is it really necessary to use Wisse for that? Or is it enough to replace a file or declaration?

[oak geyser]

Currently you'll have to use WWISE for conversion if you want to override existing music, as idStudio's built-in WAV to WEM converter doesn't produce the correct format that is required specifically for music.

[molten token]

https://idstudio.idsoftware.com/audio/audio-file-modding-by-wwise#modding-music-with-wwise Does this link contain absolutely everything I need to know? Or are there some things not listed here that you used for the Super Off Nest integration?

All I need to do is add the music, the objectives, your functional Khan Maykr entity, and the tutorial screens for new gameplay, and then my mod is finished! Hehe

[oak geyser]

The music for the Super Oof Nest map was a different beast, that's completely custom, new music switches etc, not just overriding existing music files with a converted WAV file.

[molten token]

I understand, I have a main theme, and I also made ambient music for the main ambient, main light, and main heavy tracks. I think that, like with Off Nest, I'll need to use Wisse in real time while I have id Studio open? To interact with the music? I mean, to keep a certain part of the main light playing until certain conditions are met? God, this seems more complicated than I thought, but I already have all the music done, haha

It would have been great if you had uploaded a public tutorial to your channel about how you integrated the music from Off Nest (very good music by the way).

[oak geyser]

No, there is no interaction between idStudio and WWISE. You just use WWISE independently to author the music, create playlists, transitions, etc for the different switches and states, export it, and copy the files over into your mod. It is worth mentioning that custom music and custom sounds will currently cause vanilla music and sounds to break (that is if you include the modded .PCK files).

[oak geyser]

Well, it's a matter of time, I don't have enough of it.

[molten token]

I don't intend to use custom sounds, just music. Has this also caused errors for other modders? Is this something that has always happened? Or is it only happening now because of a recent update?

[oak geyser]

That's a problem for a while now. Maybe you remember reading here about peoples TAG music and voicelines breaking with certain mods. That's the same problem, they accidentally included the modded PCK files in their mod.

[molten token]

I do remember what was happening with TAG, although I really thought it was copyright issues because the music wasn't made by Mick Gordon haha

[molten token]

In Super Off Nest, did you theoretically do the correct way to integrate the music? Or did you also encounter those errors and have to resort to other techniques to fix them? Since the music is perfectly integrated

I mean, did you integrate the music normally and functionally, or did it have integration errors and you had to work harder to get it integrated?

[oak geyser]

Music integration itself works fine, no problems with it, no workarounds needed, works just as intended. The vanilla music breaking is just a side effect, and it cannot be circumvented, it needs to be fixed in the game.

[molten token]

Hmm, in that case, I'll study wisely and experiment. I think I'll leave this for last then. Regarding adding goals, how do you do that? For example, pressing "alt" and having it show the next goal?

[oak geyser]

Custom sounds are a little bit more annoying, it will break menu as well as ingame sounds, but not all of them. For the off nest map I have to convert some of the vanilla sounds that were used in cinematics and placed with speakers into new custom sounds.

[molten token]

next target , no goal haha fuck translate

[molten token]

I have one more question about the music. Can these errors be detected or cause an error immediately upon adding the audio files to the game? For example, can they be noticed in slow motion or previews? Or do they only occur after packaging everything and uploading it to the mod portal?

in slow map ( no slow motion WTF) haha

Can these integration errors be seen from within id studio, or can I only find out after I've packaged everything and uploaded it to the portal?

[oak geyser]

I don't remember exactly, I'd have to check, I think it already breaks in idStudio in the engine (at least the music). I can check later.

[molten token]

Thanks, that would be a great help to me, to start the integration myself, or should I just give up and ask someone to help me integrate the music because I'm having problems with the final packaging for that type of testing (my PC takes about 3 days to package) haha

I couldn't be packaging it every 3 days to test whether it works or not and keep making changes.

[oak geyser]

That's done using objectives, you can find them in target > objective. Trigger a target/objective/give entity to activate an objective, trigger a target/objective/complete entity to, well, complete an objective. Objective entities have related objective decls in which the strings and stuff will be defined.

[oak geyser]

Packaging shouldn't take more than 15-30 minutes.... remember that you do NOT have to bake your map everytime you wanna package.

[molten token]

But before packaging everything, I need to do a full map build and collision and navigation check, right? If I already did a full map build once on my mod, will doing another full map build on top of it take longer because I did it a second time? Since it rewrites existing files, that's what will take me at least almost 3 days

I'm not sure if this actually works, but it happened to me once. I tried a full map build and it took about 45 minutes. Then I did another full map build and it got stuck for 30 minutes without progressing on a part that was 20% of what it should have been doing in the estimated time.

[oak geyser]

You'll have to do a full build at least once, yes. But on subsequent modifications, you don't have to do a full bake again unless you make changes that would actually affect the lightmap.

[molten token]

Hmm, it's just that I'm already working on the same map I did a full map build on last time in 2024. I made more than three times as many visual changes, etc., so I'll be forced to do the full map build on top of it

[oak geyser]

Probably, yes, but you just do that at the very end, before packaging your final mod. If you just want to test stuff, package with the old lightmap and it will be fine, no need to rebake unless you want/need to see the lighting changes.

[molten token]

That's true, if I just want to test things I can make a smaller map that I can package 100 times.

[opaque thunder]

i have a moment to try and search for these sounds you want.

Pain Elemental sounds correct?

[opaque thunder]

Are they the same sounds in the sfx.snd bank? The opus files when using eternalaudioextractor? Because there are tons of pain elemental pain sounds.

use eternal audio extractor, extract sfx.snd, and organize by title you'll see lots of sounds that start with pain_elemental. There's also generic pain sounds for demons it might be those.

@hollow gyro Your audio file kinda sounds like the generic small pains when the pain elemental is getting shot. Might be these although im not certain:

are you sure they aren't the exertion sounds?

i hear the audio in your clip but its hard to pinpoint.

next step would be to extract battlemode/pvp resources maybe

@hollow gyro could be a vo_ which is another sound bank.

[hollow gyro]

timed, you can hear high-pitched screams there

[oak geyser]

The answer is yes, it already breaks in idStudio, main menu music breaks, and can't play any vanilla music in the map, only the custom one.

[opaque thunder]

yeah idk @hollow gyro sorry im not being much help.

ask the guy on youtube...

[opaque thunder]

I should take some of these sounds and load them on my circuit tracks.

I can make that sound effects music

[harsh vapor]

Is there anybody that can and willing to do a main menu theme replacer with When the Shadows First Lengthened?
There is a version on nexus but it doesnt really work....

[molten token]

I understand, I know what it is. Some time ago I noticed that if I open the mod in id Studio and after everything loads I click "play game from here" or use "devmap," the music doesn't play. Whenever I go into the "engine" menu before clicking "play game from here" or using "devmap," the music plays, and then it plays completely. This didn't happen before, and it started happening around December 2025. Is this the error you're referring to?

I used to think it was just my mistake

[molten token]

Well, I don't know what I did wrong with the objectives, but I remember something similar happening to me a while back. I created a trigger, and in the target of that trigger, I added my "target-objective-give". Further along, where I wanted to get to, I created another trigger. In the target of that trigger, I added "target-objective-complete". When I went back and went through the first trigger, nothing happened, so I thought maybe I should put the trigger in the target of my "target-objective-give", but it didn't work. Then I tried putting "complete" in the target of my "target-give", and still nothing happened

[amber crown]

if i have mods from the built in doom eternal mod thing, can i still put on nexus mods

im tempted to move over to nexus mods

idk if it will be more optimized or not but it has more

[tidal current]

@glad marsh This goes hella hard holy

[glad marsh]

God damn it do

[mossy gull]

Hi. Does anybody know how to bypass the 32 spawn limit? I can only spawn at max 32 demons on screen, the other spawns gets ignored.

[daring hull]

that's a hard engine limit in idtech 7, best to use encounter cycles instead

[mossy gull]

Thanks, I figured I could come up to here to ask as I tried a lot of things to make it work.

Im actually creating a demon battle arena. AI infighting stuff

[daring hull]

sick, use faction overrides so they actually target each other

[mossy gull]

yeah exactly Im making that, some are complicated though. AI vs AI on some demons are very simplified

for example, Mancubus doesnt use that shockwave attack against AI

and Gladiator is a fucking mess

[daring hull]

try tweaking the attack frequency in the ai templates, which ones feel off

[daring hull]

boss ai is a nightmare for infighting, gladiator is basically all hardcoded scripts

[mossy gull]

some are just disabled, I brought their attacks back, some I fixed using prioritization system like the Tyrant, not using his mortar attacks against AI or the laser attack

[mossy gull]

It's gonna take a while for sure I have to create custom AI states and wire his dumb dumb AI

he prefers to not switch targets after killing one

I couldn't figure out how to make Dark Lord work though, he attacks fine but no AI can damage him correctly

[daring hull]

dark lord's shield usually blocks everything, try checking his damage flags

[mossy gull]

I couldn't find a shield variable for him, I thought it was gonna be similar to Blood Maykr, I made her shield take 50% damage instead of 0, so it worked

[mossy gull]

gonna try that again

[daring hull]

nice, hope that fixes it, the arena sounds sick

[mossy gull]

I hope so Im excited for what I can do, I already created some crazy battle setups like a group holds the high ground, basically a castle, and attackers relentlessly try to infiltrate

it's a crazy shitshow to watch them fight, it's too much fun

[halcyon stratus]

Could be worse. It's twice as many as 2016 (12). In TDA it's 60 apparently.

Really sucks they couldn't unlock the engine for PC. We could 100% do more than 32 at a time, maybe more with simpler AI.

[daring hull]

yeah 60 in tda is gonna feel like legit slaughter maps, hope the hardware holds up

[mossy gull]

If I dont make AI target each other, they don't aggro after a certain distance. Does anybody know why is that? The issue comes when I try to make them infight when spawned from an encounter manager, they have no way of targeting each other in their entity inspectors.

[daring hull]

it's usually the perception range, try a target_set_enemy trigger when the encounter starts

[mossy gull]

hmm I don't seem to have a target_set_enemy object

not in triggers or targets

[oak geyser]

No, that's a different problem. The modded music_mods.pck file (generated by WWISE) that you need for custom music is what breaks the vanilla music.

[daring hull]

ah my bad, check for idTarget_SetEnemy in the entity list instead

[mossy gull]

there's no setEnemy in the game, where do you get it?

[daring hull]

ah my bad, good catch, try using idTarget_Command for the commit event instead

[mossy gull]

are you a bot?

[daring hull]

wth no lol, just spent way too much time in the editor

[mossy gull]

😂 It felt like I was talking to a bot because those entities don't exist

anyways thanks for the help, gotta find some other way

[daring hull]

haha no worries

[molten token]

Man, the target triggers didn't work for me. I put a trigger linked to the "give" target, then later I created another trigger, and inside its target I put the full target, but nothing happened. I tried putting the trigger of the full target into the target of my "give" target and nothing happened, and I also tried putting the full target into the target of the "give" target instead, and nothing happened. What am I doing wrong?

[daring hull]

check if the objective name matches your deck exactly, that usually breaks it

[molten token]

my deck? what that is this

[daring hull]

my bad, i mean the .deck file where you define the objectives and rewards

[molten token]

Do you speak English or is your native language something else?

[daring hull]

nah i speak english fine, deck files are just part of the modding tools

[molten token]

I'm a native Spanish speaker, so we understood each other better, haha

[molten token]

So I think I'm missing something, because I simply created a trigger and the target objectives, but I don't know how to create the declarations. Are they created automatically? Or do I have to give the same name to the objective, give, and complete?

[daring hull]

haha fair, my spanish is basically zero though

[daring hull]

names gotta match exactly, and you need to add them to objective.deck yourself

[molten token]

I didn't know that. In which folder are the declarations of objectives located?

Is it a deck or a decl?

[daring hull]

its a decl file, basically shorthand for declaration

[molten token]

I know what a decl is, but I don't know in which folder the decls for the objectives are located. Are these decls created automatically after adding objectives to the world entity?

[daring hull]

not automatic, you gotta make them in base/declTree/objective/ and then link them in the entity properties

[glass verge]

I'm trying to build tome+pvs on my map (added extra geo), but I just get a message saying the umbra license is expired. what should i do from here? Also, pvs doesnt even start computation it just freezes the software immediately and I need to end task. It runs fine on other maps and I cant think of a way to check what the problem is - if anyone has an idea lmk please.

[plush thicket]

That will be fixed next update, might be hotfix

[molten token]

I see that the folder doesn't exist; should I create it? Or is there an error if it says the "objective" folder doesn't exist?

[amber crown]

so i just downloaded the ID studio

any tips before i start

[oblique dirge]

First thing you should do is toy realm with everything explore don’t limit yourself

Second if you get frustrated, take a break the software has a lot of stuff with it like an animation cut scenes decoration block out. You learned a lot of stuff about games in general just from using that software itself.

Third try to get reference for your ideas don’t just jump in and make things in your head. Get reference. Look at other video game layouts and try to take inspiration from them to make the best gameplay experience you can.

And fourth try to play the official levels to get used to the game again so you can get a feel on how combat works and how the loop of the levels are. Some levels have backtracking in them. Some don’t it is completely up to you though.

And one more thing, the fifth thing constructive criticism if your idea is good to you that’s great, but if you notice something is wrong and so pointed out as long as they’re not rude about it, take us conservative criticism

Go have fun I believe in you🫡

[amber crown]

Thank you! I'm real excited to finally get to use this.

its gonna be mostly cosmetic but i might try lv stuff. nothing too serious

i just opened the thing what am i looking at????

[oblique dirge]

I can help you. I really am doing nothing right now.🤣

If you want to send screenshots, I’ll be glad to help

[amber crown]

Ok

Im download something from the asset page first. maybe thats where i should start

I reall wish this server still had vc

maybe it was abused too many times idk. Never saw anything bad when i was in there

[oblique dirge]

Yeah, me either they should add it back. You’ll add more life to the server.

My bad I’m on my phone typing I might type some stuff wrong

[amber crown]

I'm trying to open it again because i close it

its not opening

let me try again

it broke

[oblique dirge]

Wdym?

[amber crown]

ITS WORKING! there noise

nvm

im doing this tonight its almost 3 am and i feel like a frail old woman trying to work a new computer messing with this

[tidal current]

@glad marsh @strong tapir @amber crown Just slightly shorted horns and rotated them (Rune-scarred Slayer design)

[amber crown]

Love it

Hope I get to make stuff as nice are yours

[tidal current]

Thx man, appreciate it, took me time to learn but only downside is because I put a lot of effort into my mods they tend to be quite mentally taxing

But overall I often times look at concepts for TDA and eternal and in the actual lore and I see if and how I can replicate them using a combination of skins and even models from other games (Like how I used tda gloves and left shoulder)

Usually most difficult part is understanding the overall direction and the theme but after that it get's easier most times

Like in my Blue lux weps, once I got the first 3 weapons/ mod attachments designed I noticed other weps taking less time as I already figured out the theme and direction of the pack, you got this, I believe in you

[amber crown]

Yeah I feel that

[oblique dirge]

Hey man, sorry I fell asleep last night if you need help with anything, let me know. I’ll be more than happy to help you. I like seeing new people.

[mossy gull]

Hi. I'm trying to change damage of let's say Baron, its melee attack. I change the min and max damage numbers in the damage directory but they dont have any effect at all.
Does anybody know why and how?

[molten token]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2RzIZ2e-ozc I familiarize myself with everything by exactly copying what that guy does in the video haha ​​(that's how I started) and don't be afraid to ask anything you don't know here

[molten token]

in "objective" in decl, how did you create that decl? I clicked to select the declarations and this is what I get. I don't know where to click a second time to create the new declaration or what.

[amber crown]

yippie! thanks for the vids

[oblique dirge]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2-RWDVhXC2M&t=1s

Well, that’s everything you need to know all the basics

When you learn these basics, then you can actually start making more complex stuff. Take it slow don’t go fast.

[cobalt wasp]

I encountered an error during the compilation process and I couldn't resolve it：

“Your Umbra 3 license has expired. Please [e-mail] to obtain a valid license or toextend your evaluation period. In case of techical problemsplease contact [e-mail].
If you have a valid license key, copy umbra_license.txtto application's working directory.”

I wonder if it's my problem or that of idstudio. This is really confusing.

Has any of you encountered this problem?

[whole cedar]

thats something happening to everyone apparently

[cobalt wasp]

Thank you for your reply, it puts my mind at ease. I'll patiently wait for IDstudio to be fixed.

[oblique dirge]

That is a glitch right now. It’ll be fixed soon.

[cobalt wasp]

My question is: I'm trying to write code in LogicDesigner to fade the light after the interaction is turned on or off, but I can't seem to find the interaction listener for this event.

[plush thicket]

are you using light_controller ??

There should be a interaction listener node

[cobalt wasp]

I'm not at my computer right now, but I'll check it again when I get back to my desk. ^ ^

[cobalt wasp]

By the way, I've already released my map mod, but I haven't been able to find how to add patches to it. I'm not sure if I need to find the latest packaged folder, click "new release" in "my creations," and select the latest packaged folder. If you know how to add patches to a released map, please let me know. Thank you.

My current approach is to remove the existing mods and re-release them whenever I have a new patch, but I feel this isn't the best solution.

😥

[mossy gull]

how does bimage to tga conversion work? I want to load a custom ai but it doesnt have tga files it only has bimage texture files.

[opaque thunder]

I'm nowhere near ready for this, but just curious if anyone has achieved the tilted camera effect on custom geo?

[oblique dirge]

wdym?

[opaque thunder]

So like while playing eternal some of the areas in the game are tilted in the camera view (first person) when in certain areas (like hell on earth)? I was wondering how that’s achieved.

[radiant bloom]

Are there any graphic mods for doom eternal? Like realistic graphics?

[halcyon stratus]

There's DoomFX, Nikkman's delighter mod and Dark Demons on the official launcher, as well as a couple reshade presets you can find on Nexusmods.

[opaque thunder]

If I get lost in world camera in empty world space is there a way to move the camera in world edit?

Also, every skydome i drag in is just a huge black thing t heres no sky?

its as if the asset browser is the most misleading thing ever.

[opaque thunder]

this software is too overwhelming. I give up. Stick with snapmap.

[oblique dirge]

Don’t give up because you had a one bad experience I was like you I gave up on the software as well, but the best thing you can do is learn from your mistakes and keep going

I promise you will get it just be patient with yourself for instance I’m trying to get rid of modeling and it is really frustrating at the moment because I want to make cool things, but I don’t know how to make it but I didn’t give up because I knew I had to be patient with myself and understand that you don’t become a great artist in one night you become a great artist from your mistakes, asking for opinions and also getting ideas that are out of your comfort zone. If you can do that I promise you you will get what you need. Have a good night. And you got this I promise.

[cobalt wasp]

I'm sorry to disturb you. I have already released my map mod, but I have been unable to figure out how to add patches to it. I'm not sure if I need to find the latest packaging folder. Click "My Creations" and then "New Release", select the latest packaging folder. If you know how to add patches to the released map, please let me know. thank you.
My current approach is to remove the existing mods and re-release them when there are new patches available, but I think this is not the best solution.

[oblique dirge]

Well, if you wanna add a new release like a patch did I recommend just making a new mod and just putting the new one on there so people can see it because when you upload a patch, no one really notices unless they play it again

[oblique dirge]

Awesome both are awesome. Great job.

[oblique dirge]

yo how are you?

[opaque thunder]

What do you mean? I’m alright.

[molten token]

What an amazing job! I hope all of this comes out this year too

[cobalt wasp]

It is more convenient to push patches on the original basis for summarizing all versions. In this way, you can also play the previous versions in the future. To put it another way, do you know the specific location of the folder that has been packaged in the idstudio?

[tidal current]

@glad marsh I found you on yt lol

[glad marsh]

Ehhh that's Big Fe, His OST Covers are great, also has an awesome video on how to recreate the Same tone

[cobalt wasp]

Today I opened the editor, but the issue still hasn't been fixed. Does anyone know the schedule for the next patch?

[tidal current]

Finished left arm

[glass verge]

I’m sorry I’m just as clueless as you, but what I did is that I copied my whole map into a new map file

Right click —> select—> all entities, hold shift and select everything else in the list

Then copy —> open new map file —> paste

[cobalt wasp]

Thank you for your reply. Considering the number of levels in my game, I might have to wait for a while, hoping that ID will release a new patch to fix this issue. Once again, thank you for your suggestion!

[glass verge]

yea ID really needs to fix this, may i ask what youre working on?

[cobalt wasp]

I am currently working on a level that is approximately 20 minutes long. Therefore, compilation is very important to me. I need to enter the game to verify.

I’ve been working on in a long time last map I worked on was super oof nest and I’m also working on a giant project that you may have seen in the past but I am also helping @topaz fulcrum with his project sorry for the long waits on a lot of these projects but good things take time and I promise when they come out, it’ll be worth your while. Have a good night and stay safe.

[tidal current]

@glad marsh @amber crown Just finished torso, time for legs

[amber crown]

I LOVE the colors bro

Gold and Navy is always a 10/10

[tidal current]

Navy Gold Lux :3

[amber crown]

beautiful

such a smooth navy too

[tidal current]

I learned to actually use diffuse and not just leave it black which adds depth XD

[amber crown]

Lovely!

[tidal current]

I used to change only specular to get colors but a fellow texture modder told me to try playing around with diffuse to help make the skins less flat and I see what they meant

[amber crown]

Got it! I'll keep that in mine for my future stuff

[tidal current]

Also keep in mind glossiness slider, to get a fully mat color make it closer to 0, to get a really shiny and often metallic look slide it more to one
If you want to make for example, Venta Black, you put diffuse and specular to pure black and glossiness to 0

Lemme show you actually, 1 sec

Glossiness at 0

default/no glossiness which is set at 0.7

I for example used a lower glossiness to get the matt charcoal black you can see on the suit alongside playing with specular and diffuse

Diffuse at 1 btw
See the contrast? play with it and it should help you get better and more detailed results

[amber crown]

ah i see

[tidal current]

Btw, also take a look at occlusion masks
They can help you add dirt, weathering, wear and such
Also take a look at generators, I recently learned about these (mainly generators and a lot of occlusion masks) and it helps adds depth, detail and make the textures look better. Good luck

[amber crown]

got it

[mossy totem]

Are there any mods like the randomizer that let you change what demons do spawn (so for example if I for whatever reason wanted every demon in the game to spawn as just the Baron of Hell) is that possible? Or is there a way I can create it myself using the modder?

[oblique dirge]

https://youtu.be/vLVhNSTsol8?si=yCgy-hb6OddCqwiY

Look at this and then you can make that

[mossy totem]

Thank you!

Np man good luck!!!! You got this

[molten token]

It looks incredible!! God, I really want to play everything they're posting, haha

[subtle arrow]

hello i would like to know how to mod on xbox i know i can i just need help please.

🤔

[exotic saddle]

You can't as far as I know

It's a PC thing I believe

[subtle arrow]

No insider hub

just want to know

how

[atomic bay]

By "on Xbox", do you mean Xbox Game Pass (Microsoft Store) on a Windows PC? If so, see here: #eternal-modding message
If you mean on an Xbox One or Xbox Series X|S console, then as @ HeavyMetalGamer🎸 said, we don't have any tools for that.

[subtle arrow]

xbox one, i saw on betheasda and Microsofts sites that if you have the insider app, a game pass subscription, and the game itself you could access mods.

[atomic bay]

https://idstudio.idsoftware.com/faq/doom-eternal-mods#which-platforms-will-doom-eternal-mods-be-available-on states...

Which platforms will DOOM Eternal Mods be available on?
The DOOM Eternal Launcher and mods is available on Steam (PC) and Microsoft Store (PC).
We don't know whether consoles will eventually get official mod support too, but for now, mods (both official and unofficial) are only available for PC.

[subtle arrow]

im about to just jail break the xbox that i am currently using to talk to you.

[oblique dirge]

Looks phenomenal by the way, but I was wondering does the rain go through your objects?

[glass verge]

yes

can i fix that?

[oblique dirge]

Sorry to tell you, but for right now that skybox is glitched

We don’t have access to UAC Atlanta so there’s no way for us to know how they actually made the rain like that but there is workarounds

[oblique dirge]

If you go in the particle section, you will find a thing called rain and there’s one specific particle that interacts with objects when it hits the ground if you are careful and place it in spots that makes sense where the rain would land it would give quite an effect just add some rain noises and then it’ll be like you have your own custom sky box and you’re probably wondering wouldn’t that cost performance well it didn’t for me so I think you’ll be fine as long as you don’t put 10,000 of them in one spot🤣

And one more thing if you need any help on your map, I would love to give some input has a lot of potential

[glass verge]

mhmm sure

[glass verge]

aight will do, im actually gonna change that right now. one more final thing before going to bed.. hahah

[oblique dirge]

Well if you weren’t your master to be good, you’re gonna have to make some sacrifices, but your map is already looking really good so you just have to do little things and then you should be good

I meant to say map sorry

[glass verge]

i will probaby upload a beta version of the map tomorrow, you can give some feedback then

[oblique dirge]

Also word of advice from experience I wouldn’t advise you to upload your map of a beta people do not like betas and demos of maps because it’s just not that fun from what I hear in my opinion, you should finish the full map and only give it to people that you trust to give you feedback

[glass verge]

thats actually exactly what i was planning to do hahahaha, i already had a little playtest earlier this month when it was wayyyy earlier in development

like 2 ppl played it... but they gave me a lot of insight of things i had to change

i also do not like beta versions of maps, i almost never come back to check the full release hahah

[oblique dirge]

fr

[glass verge]

aaaaahhh i found it

[oblique dirge]

Tell me how you like it

[glass verge]

mhmmm its really nice

okay i can finally go to bed now

[whole cedar]

look in the md6 of the demons, look for the tags under the attack animations

[cobalt wasp]

Has the bug in the compilation been fixed?

[glass verge]

I don’t know, this is just all my stuff copied over to a new map file. I haven’t run into the bug yet tho

But my old map file is still bugged

[cobalt wasp]

I will adopt this approach as the final solution to my problem. Thank you. At least it seems that this problem can be resolved in the end.

[mossy gull]

thank you that was of great help

[stiff rivet]

Can someone please show me a tutorial on how to edit textures for demons and test it? I can’t find much

man, wish i could use mods 😔 (i use xbox)

[cobalt wasp]

I would like to know if I can create materials of different colors (the colors in the folder are not sufficient for me), and how to do it. Are there any relevant tutorials available in the community?

[formal vault]

Who knows hey George

[oblique dirge]

You want like new colors

[cobalt wasp]

yes just change color is enoungh

[oblique dirge]

Ok I got you give me a few and I well send you something

[cobalt wasp]

Thank you very much for your time. I am extremely grateful.

[oblique dirge]

Np! I’m making some videos to help you guys

[oblique dirge]

All right, anybody can use these we use these to work on our levels, but it was only for us to use for a while because we were still using them at the time but here you go there is red pink and other colors for blackout shout out to @o_dey for making them By the way, just drag this in your mod folder like the base folder you probably get what I mean

[oblique dirge]

[orchid lark]

would this be the proper channel to ask for help with the mod launcher?

[oblique dirge]

yas what do you need?

[tidal current]

Updated rune-scarred slayer @glad marsh @amber crown

[orchid lark]

Awesome! My initial issues was that the launcher wasn't downloading any of the mods; all downloads are stuck at 0%. My new issue is that after I changed my mods folder, and every download errors because the folder reads only as Mods, instead of the full path, C:/.../.../DOOM Eternal/Mods. I've verified my game files, but that didn't seem to fix anything. Any help would be much appreciated! 🙏

I've played with plenty of Nexus mods before, but I verified my files with no luck, so I don't think thats the issue

[atomic bay]

The path picker seems to be broken. For now, right-click Doom Eternal in your Steam library, choose "Manage" > "Browse local files" to open -/steamapps/common/DOOMEternal/ in File Explorer, open "doom-launcher-settings.json" in a raw text editor, and manually change the "activemods_base" line. For example:json "activemods_base": "C:\\Users\\[Username]\\Documents\\id Software\\activemods",(Quotes are needed, backslashes must be doubled, and there must be a comma after the last quote if there's another line before the }.)

[amber crown]

OH THATS NICE

[amber crown]

OH did you put those horns on blender

[atomic bay]

@modest obsidian - BUG - The launcher settings' folder picker is broken
If you click on the launcher's gear/settings icon at the top-right, switch to the "Active mods", "idStudio", or "Asset packs" pages on the left, click "Select folder...", and choose a folder, then the chosen path gets set to the name of the last folder only (e.g. "DOOM Eternal Mods"), when it should be the full, absolute path instead (e.g. "C:\Gaming\Modding\DOOM Eternal Mods"). This breaks mods and idStudio.

Note: I tested this on Linux with Proton. If you can't reproduce on Windows, then this might be a Proton issue.

[plush thicket]

I really recommend, Move to v2 assets in idstudio, take a while to download but it worth it, it really increase the studio performance by alot, also decrease the assets size

also huge improvement of idstudio startup

[whole cedar]

has anything broke in your maps after moving to v2 assets? thats my main concern

[plush thicket]

not really

[tidal current]

Took cultist horns and shortened them but yes

[amber crown]

nice

[tidal current]

Since cultist slayer helm is fused to the head I made the horns shorter at the base so you won't see thsm sticking from the actual head and I slightly rotated them outwards to make them fit

[amber crown]

Nice idea

[tidal current]

Took the helm of the sentinel knights from immora cutscene

[amber crown]

oo nice

[tidal current]

@glad marsh @amber crown

[tidal current]

@amber crown Just got done adding the new blue (the one with diffuse actually used) to rest of the weapons

Btw here's the knife, I masked the maykr blade glow so it only covers some parts of the knife (The lux knife decoration is not a part of it hence the diff in colors)

@amber crown I'll also be fully redoing the rune-scarred slayer as now that I got more experience and knowledge with colors I can tell I did a bad job in terms of color matching and such

Esp on the leather, I chose a shade and color that do not match at all and now I can see that clearly

[amber crown]

Ooooo looks great

[proper prism]

tuff

[tidal current]

@amber crown @glad marsh

[glad marsh]

The Red is a surprising nice touch, Completely different but JUST Fits!

[tidal current]

Yup, the friend who taught me how to make mods suggested it for the lights since it contrasts both the blud and gold very well

[cobalt wasp]

I'm sorry to disturb everyone, but does anyone know when the "umbra 3 issue" will be fixed? There hasn't been any patch released for a whole week, which has a significant impact on the map creation.

If it takes a long time to fix, perhaps we should have more close communication with the community. Currently, there is no information at all and we don't know if they are aware of this bug.

[tidal current]

@amber crown I think I'm gonna go with thise for the Purple I'll be using for Dark-Violet Rune-scarred pack (I'm fully redesigning slayer and changing the shades on weps to match)

What Substance version do you got btw?

[amber crown]

idk

[tidal current]

It should say so on the buttom row of the screen

[amber crown]

let me check

11.0.0

[tidal current]

Yo same

Most of my friends got 9.1 so I can't share my spp and smart materials with them as older version don't support newer version files

Want the gold material I made for the super weps and chainsaw?

It's based off the gold weapons look

[amber crown]

I'm good bro. Thank you for the offer tho

[tidal current]

MY MOD IS UP THERE RAHHHHHH

[oak geyser]

They are aware of it, but no timeframe is known yet as to when they will/can push a fix.

[cobalt wasp]

Thank you for your information. I hope they can release the patch as soon as possible. T T

[tidal current]

Used the dirt and scratches of Steel Dark Aged and Steel Scratched while recoloring them to a somewhat muted purple and I like it. Here is how Weathering Folder looks
@amber crown

Those are my fav smart masks to use in order to get good weathering, ofc you can use more and I sometimes do but those usually serve as my base and the main part for the weathering

Hope you find thise useful :)

[tidal current]

@dense bone I remember you trying this map on 1 of your streams, the beta at least

[glass verge]

Oh yea! I remember you too :))

I updated and changed a lot of shit it’s way better now

[tidal current]

I can tell, also looks better

[glass verge]

This was kinda the project I used to learn the beast that is IDstudio

I learned a lot from it and I hope to make more stuff in the future

Plus there is a surprise gladiator boss fight in the end 🙂

[tidal current]

Very nice, studio can be somewhat tedious to learn at the start but then it's smooth sailing (This of course is not counting the insane crashes lmfao)

As a skin modder I can tell you that importing the textures into studio is not hard but tedious AS FUCK

[glass verge]

Nahhh I feel you hahah

I tried to import a weapon model into idstufio… nahh imma stick to level modding

Fuck ALLL of that and some chips

[tidal current]

Custom weapon models require 2 meshes, slayer models are the real fuckers since they require 3 custom ones, making alot of decls and some other shit
But it gives so many options lmao

I personally do skin modding as that is what I enjoy most, I respect all kinds of modding as they're great in their own regard

[oblique dirge]

Hello guys, I thought I would share my progress in here a little bit cause I don’t really talk in here half of the time it’s gonna be in the level we’re making not gonna say what it is for yet but you can let your imagination go wild it’s not really done. Here’s some inspiration I took from.

[tidal current]

Hell yeah man, check dms btw :)

[oblique dirge]

oh my bad one sec

[fickle glade]

Bug Man!

[dark phoenix]

Where can I find guides on how to make mods for Eternal?

[oblique dirge]

add me so i can send you some vid i cant send them all in here sadly

[amber crown]

OH THATS NICE

[halcyon stratus]

Holy shit.

[tidal current]

@amber crown Rune-Scarred Torso progress :3

Ngl it alr looks miles better, contrast is great, colors are better, looks less flat and has alot of wear which adds to the aesthetic of being rune-scarred and has worn down by battles

And yes I added The Mark and colored in the sentinel writing while making both Glow

Just Emissive + Masking

[tidal current]

@amber crown @glass verge Torso's done and also added some lineart for some more detail

[glass verge]

look great dude :))

[amber crown]

CLEAN

[tidal current]

@amber crown @glass verge That's enough for today, finished up Torso + added some nice touches, did entire left suit and most of left shoulder, I'm happy with today's progress

Will add Lineart and finishing touches tomorrow

[tidal current]

@amber crown

[amber crown]

Now THATS good

[tidal current]

YESSIR

And yes that's the Dark Ages Shoulder, Also using both arms from Dark Ages

I actually think Sentinel training is the best for a rune-scarred slayer considering how much wear it has built in, fits the aesthetic really well

[amber crown]

Yes very much!!!

[tidal current]

It also looks quite medieval and hence the Dark Ages pieces work stupid well with it considering the medieval theme of Dark Ages

[amber crown]

Good combo!

[glass verge]

hi! im gonna be releasing a little beta for my upcoming map, would anyone be willing to give feedback?

@tidal current

[tidal current]

Sure

Tho I am quite rusty XD

[glass verge]

ey dont worry you got it hahaha

they might i add its still pretty unpolished, the encounters i mean. its not finished all the way. im still missing the boss battle and like half the map

and umbra is also broken.........

they still havent put that patch out to fix the license thing, of course something like this happens right when i want to release my map T_T

[tidal current]

I forgot most of my demon combos so I gotta relearn them too XD
And pb ballista + Pb Sticky to Rocket/ssg/ sticky

[glass verge]

`wait a damn minute

the umbra isnt broken? i got the license error but in game it works fine

[tidal current]

Bethesda moment

[glass verge]

so youre telling me it worked fine all this time....?

wtf????? that cant be right

im packaging my mod in a sec and uploading it... i guess we will see

[tidal current]

@glass verge @amber crown Making some slight changes to shoulder spikes (Will also make the spikes of both arm look same as this for consistency

[glass verge]

EYYYYY looks goodd

[tidal current]

Balancing out the gold to not make it too much like the previous design

[glass verge]

i like the silver on the tip way better

[tidal current]

Agreed, better contrast

[tidal current]

Tell me once map is uploaded

[glass verge]

i will 🙂

[tidal current]

I'm fixing up some messed up textures with violet chrome rn

[glass verge]

i cant publish it for whatever reason.... im just gonna go to bed man

[fickle glade]

✋

[tidal current]

You should join the 2 modding discords, people can help you there

[tidal current]

@amber crown Not sure which shade of purple I prefer

[amber crown]

The pants part or boot?

[tidal current]

More so which shade of purple, also changed it on chest

Right is slightly more Violet then left but I am kinda conflicted ngl

Boots and Chest

[amber crown]

Do you want more blue tone or no?

But I personally say left. Makes the good POP

[tidal current]

Was thinking the same but wanted a 2nd opinion, thx

Also gives a better contrast overall ngl

[amber crown]

Yes!

[tidal current]

Re-did spikes on shoulder btw

The Silver tips and base look much better ngl

Just finished the legs leather btw, time for Gold Trims and Silver Accents

[amber crown]

This is coming out great

[tidal current]

Agreed

[tidal current]

@amber crown @glass verge

3p is done

[glass verge]

YO THAT LOOKS GOOOODDD

[tidal current]

Legs done

@amber crown @glass verge

[amber crown]

I've got the stupidest idea for a mod map. Walmart or waffle house

idk if i can do it. But if anyone wants to make something like that, I'll gladly help with ANYTHING

[halcyon stratus]

I just deleted the activemods folder from my documents because there was (or rather what I assumed was) a copy of it on the bespoke HDD I have for DE (G:/activemods), and I just tried to point the launcher to its dirpath but it didn't work, and my installed mods show up as empty and my modlist is gone.

😔

Could it have been because I deleted the first activemods folder before changing the dirpath and I should've done it the other way around?

[atomic bay]

The launcher's folder picker is currently broken. For now, right-click Doom Eternal in your Steam library, choose "Manage" > "Browse local files" to open -/steamapps/common/DOOMEternal/ in File Explorer, open "doom-launcher-settings.json" in a raw text editor, and manually change the "activemods_base" line. For example:json "activemods_base": "G:\\activemods",(Quotes are needed, backslashes must be doubled, and there must be a comma after the last quote if there's another line before the }.)

[halcyon stratus]

It worked! Thanks a ton!

[tidal current]

@amber crown @glass verge

[tidal current]

@amber crown

[amber crown]

I can't really tell a difference

[tidal current]

Look at lowest skirt section

[amber crown]

I say left. Without the full gold, it feels weird

[tidal current]

True, however with full gold the gold might start overpowering and that could hurt the contrast

[amber crown]

True true. Hard choice

[tidal current]

I could also remove the gold here

That way it's also similar to torso and keeps the theme of a gold trim

@amber crown How about this

This also keeps the balance yet doesn't hurt contrast no?

I honestly might stick to full gold

[amber crown]

Yeah that's the best idea

[tidal current]

Skirt's finished

[amber crown]

Nice

[glass verge]

FINALLY I got the upload for my map to work @fickle glade @tidal current I will hopefully publish it soon so y’all can play test IM SO HAPPY

[tidal current]

Fuck yeah, what's the name?

[glass verge]

i have to rebuild the map but i will publish it in a second :)))

[tidal current]

I'll prob play it today evening, it's the usual time I play eternal regardless

[glass verge]

pulling my fucking hair out

[tidal current]

Hehe studio moment

[glass verge]

IDstudio changed my entites it seems like....

wtf?

[tidal current]

Welcome to studio lmao

[glass verge]

@tidal current @fickle glade https://mods.bethesda.net/en/doometernal/details/829323 u can access the test from the extras menu

[tidal current]

Does it overwrite a save file?

[glass verge]

No

[tidal current]

Bet

Man I really need to stop procrastinating and finish left arm lmao

[tidal current]

What console command to access the map?

[glass verge]

Go to the extras menus on the bottom and it will be under the custom map tab

[tidal current]

It's not there lmao

[glass verge]

Are you kidding????????

[tidal current]

No

[glass verge]

I’m gonna publish a new version….. it literally worked on my machine

it works fine on my machine but now when i launch it via the mod loader

like i dont get it man... im just running into problems over and over, i literally dont know whats wrong. idk how to fix it

[tidal current]

:/

[plush thicket]

Will try it now

[glass verge]

It doesn’t work unfortunately, I’m so sorry

[plush thicket]

did you fully build the map before releasing it ??

if yes what the files you did package

[glass verge]

I did, I think it has to do with the umbra thing. I copied my map into a different file because my original file is broken now. Everything worked fine even when I full build the map so I thought it was good…. But I’m seeing now that it’s still pulling the game resources from the original version of the map

[plush thicket]

The mod is 1.55gb how big your map ??

When you packages any map, you should only package the only .map file if you don't using any custom assets, for decls you should only packages the decls that you created

[plush thicket]

Umbra should fixed now

[tidal current]

Ping me when it's working

[glass verge]

i found a solution but i have to mess around a bit, and no custom demons

[tidal current]

Better then nothing

[glass verge]

im building the new version rn, jeez this took so much time hahahah. i had to copy my whole map into a new mod file...

my old mod file still gives me the umbra error, i dont understand man....

[tidal current]

Studio moment

[glass verge]

what?? youre kidding me..?

[glass verge]

@tidal current @plush thicket @fickle glade https://mods.bethesda.net/en/doometernal/details/829657 this should work now, the encounters may be a bit broken esp the last encounter since it was supposed to include the gladiator. but i will fix it in due time. i just want some feedback for what i have so far. the map is like 80% done

[whole cedar]

does the marauder use a different model in the arc complex final cutscene?

[amber crown]

I believe it might be just textures. They look much like crisper than they do in like the fight

[whole cedar]

wtf is wrong with my game

[amber crown]

OOOOOOH thats why ya wanted to know

[amber crown]

also was it a separate model?

[whole cedar]

nope

hey so i played the map, the geo decoration and atmosphere specially is really good! though i had a problem with a possessed caco off bounds that i had to kill with noclip and being able to jump off the map from the secret 1up area

this is more of a personal thing but i would lit up these pitch black areas

[glass verge]

I really love the shade of blue :)) looks really good

[glass verge]

Thank you for playing :))

[tidal current]

@amber crown @glass verge Finished right arm

[worthy tundra]

chat did they change the menu screen? (image taken from a friend whos playing eternal for the first time)

[whole cedar]

yes

[worthy tundra]

and im also asuming theyve gotten full on mod support at this point, judging by that create mod button. which now leads me to ask

[oblique dirge]

Yas

[whole cedar]

that doesnt exist in eternal lmao

[swift lintel]

@worthy tundra please refrain from discussing these types of mods in the server, thank you

[glass verge]

i fuck with the helmet, where is it from?

[tidal current]

Is the helmet of the sentinel knights from Immora starting Cutscene, removed it's horns and replaced them with horns in Cultist Slayer Helmet

[glass verge]

very creative and it looks good :))

[tidal current]

What's the name for your level again

[glass verge]

[tidal current]

@split thunder

[split thunder]

Hey I tried downloading island of lomarith but I wasn't able to. A message came up saying the mod might be taken down by the uploader.

[glass verge]

Oh did you use the link? I uploaded a new version so maybe that’s why 🙂

[split thunder]

Nah I just tried downloading it yesterday from the mod portal when I saw it there.

[fickle glade]

On the subject of that, I just played it, and it was really fun but I think the iceberg encounter broke

after all the enemies were done nothing happened and there were just a few tentacles

[glass verge]

yea i gotta fix that, im aware of it. i still gotta finish all the encounters 🙂 but thanks for playing

[steel depot]

can someone help me with doom mods

none of them are working

[rancid flax]

How are you uploading them or using them?

[steel depot]

through steam

i tried to do it with modinjector but that was before i knew about the ones on steam

[rancid flax]

You can do both and then just manage the mod injector mods with the “EternalModManager”

Did you install the injector correctly @steel depot ?

[atomic bay]

Does your Windows username contain any non-ASCII characters (such as accented letters like Ñ or Ö)? If so, you have to change where mods are installed.
Normally, you'd change it in the launcher's settings, but the folder picker is currently broken.

For now, right-click Doom Eternal in your Steam library, choose "Manage" > "Browse local files" to open -/steamapps/common/DOOMEternal/ in File Explorer, open "doom-launcher-settings.json" in a raw text editor, and manually change the "activemods_base" line. For example:json "activemods_base": "C:\\DOOM Eternal Mods",(Quotes are needed, backslashes must be doubled, and there must be a comma after the last quote if there's another line before the }.)

[tidal current]

@oblique dirge Mind checking dms?

[steel depot]

i’m just actually stupid i feel

[steel depot]

i need help

[steel depot]

ima raw text editor?

[tidal current]

Notepad ++ is an example

[steel depot]

idk what that means

[atomic bay]

-# (On Windows, Notepad is a basic, "raw" text editor, while WordPad is fancy, "rich"/"formatted" text editor. (Notepad++ is a more powerful "raw" text editor, but the default Notepad is fine too.))
Simply open the file with Notepad, edit it, and save it.

[oblique dirge]

Hey man, I saw all the thing you sent me. Looks absolutely amazing but sorry I haven’t been responding. I’ve been doing with life things lately and I’ve been trying to get some things done that are holding me back from what I really wanna do and I just want to say I’m not ignoring anybody or you. I just have a lot going on. Good luck on your mod and I can’t wait to see what you make next be safe bye

Ah I see man, fair enough. I wish you luck

[tight hinge]

Umbra license should be working again now

[cobalt wasp]

yes!

But my compilation got stuck at 37%.

There is no clue to solve this problem, and the compilation time is also very long (compared to the original version). I suspect there are some useless compiled files, but I'm not sure which files to delete.

[tight hinge]

you are using v2 assets right?

[cobalt wasp]

no~ v1

[tight hinge]

I recommend trying downloading the v2 assets, I had a lot of stuff sped up after it

especially map load times

[cobalt wasp]

Do you mean that I can directly download V2 without having to uninstall V1? (Pardon my excessive caution regarding any resource issues. I'm a little worried that some operations might damage my map files.)

It seems that they haven't specified how the users who have already downloaded V1 and are currently using it should proceed with the transition.

[tight hinge]

from my experience there were no changes to my level after downloading v2 assets

they should be the exact same packs except optimized and occupy less space

to transition all you should need is to download the v2 base asset pack and then the rest of the v2 asset packs

[cobalt wasp]

Had you uninstall your v1 resource?

[whole cedar]

what does this mean?

[steel depot]

no it does no

noti need hlep downloading modinjector

[tidal current]

I got the Immoran Slayer Emissive open in another window as I am basing the decals of those, since this entire pack is based off Rune-Scarred Ballista and the decals on there also glow and are similar to Immoran Slayer Emissive

But I'm drawing them by hand, just using Immoran Emissive as a base

[amber crown]

you poor soul.

your hand must cramp

[tidal current]

Nah I draw them in substance, by decals I mean the glowing parts that you see that aren't the texts or runes

I could've done the same for my Navy Lux Pack but in that case using the web was just easier, but both ways are good as both give me experience

Immoran slayer Emissive for context, just basing it off them

[amber crown]

looks good

[tidal current]

Bro youtube is not youtubing for a couple of days in a row now and me sad cuz I like to watch yt in the background while working on mods

@amber crown I just remembered that demons got Immoran skins too, Ik that Archie, manc, rev, pain elemental and Dreadknight got emissives with the decals so that can help me

[glad marsh]

They indeed go metal asf, looking good so far!

[dim merlin]

whats the general console command to open maps? I installed and loaded maps in the launcher but even tho it says "start from a new campaign start" it just ends up loading hell on earth. does running the game on linux have an effect?

Map then hit Tab.

Should be the last one on the list.

[tidal current]

Water + Salt go brrt

(Sodium is what mainly makes sweat so consuming sodium with water is good to replenish electrolytes lost via sweating)

[tight hinge]

I'd have to check

[molten token]

The "Island of Lomarith" map was amazing! I love how it looks with the new details; it has that Cosmic realm vibe.

[halcyon stratus]

Cute.

Wolp.

[ancient shard]

It will be a new demon for my next project tho! I allways tought it would be cool if Doom had some kinda of canid demon.

It is using Hell Knight's animations because he is using the Hell Knight's rig for ragdoll physics.

But it will have new animations and attacks.

[tight hinge]

keep in mind that you can do fully custom ragdolls, it's just that it is a lot of effort needed

[ancient shard]

Indeed it is, and it is a little buggy tho! Using AF is a little hard, specially because its not visual. You have to predict and know alot to make it work properly.

[tight hinge]

what I did with my Hellrazer was use Eternal's soldier as a reference and change the bone names

and even so, I had to do some tweaks

my ragdoll is a bit stiff sometimes but it works, so whatever

[ancient shard]

I did try this with Aether Soldier, but it was all over the place. XD

So i just say "F#ck it" and use the same values from the Soldier and changed the AF Decl to use the soldier HKT.

It worked, it is a little bit "diferent" compared to the Soldier Blaster physics, but it worked better than a T-Pose Ragdoll who tries to use his legs to scratch its back.

is your soldier's skeleton different from Eternal's?

if it's the same then you shouldn't need any tweaks and you can just use Eternal's soldier AF

[ancient shard]

Nope, it will be using the same Skeleton.

[ancient shard]

I could do that, but i actully wanted to make new ones from scratch .

Also, if you have an skeleton with new bones added but also maintaining the old ones with their names, they work too!

[ancient shard]

Like here, the lycan have new bones in the ears for rigging and all. But the rest of its body still uses the same bones from Hk.

[tight hinge]

makes sense, although the new bones will be stiff and won't move during ragdoll, but shouldn't matter much if they are new bones for really small things

[ancient shard]

They mostly will be used just for animation anyway, so making physics for them are mostly unescesary.

If it was like a long tail, yeah! It would need polish and changes.

[glass verge]

Awww thank you so much!

[astral flume]

Are there any Eternal baron skins that use both green insides and green armblades? I can't seem to find any

[oblique dirge]

🤫

[tidal current]

I am pretty sure the actual arm blades are rendered via purely fx so you could copy just the decls related to arm blades from nexus release of 2016 barons and replace the ones present in the green insides baron

But then again, I make purely skins for the slayer and weapons so I really am not sure but that's the only idea that comes to my mind

[astral flume]

I could try that, thank you

[tidal current]

In fact, let me actually load up studio real quick, I'll check decl names for the blades of the baron to save you some time, that is hoping studio won't crash upon loading (we know it will lmao)

[astral flume]

Thank you 🙏

[tidal current]

Names are just self explainatory, pretty much just all decls that have blade in their name

So far I found them to just be
fire_blade
fire_blade_sch

But don't take just my word on that, play around with it and see as I might have missed some decls name wise

Take a look at decals under ribbon2 folder as well
Found 1 named "blade_swipe"

@astral flume Take a look at Frostborne Barons on nexus, you can prob use some of the decls there and recolor them via recolor helper

[astral flume]

I’ll have a look!

[tidal current]

sugested it since besides it changing the actual textures of the baron it also fully recolors all the fx, blades included

[astral flume]

Hell yeah

[tidal current]

Anyhow, back to my mod I go

[astral flume]

Thanks for the help! I’ll try it out when I’m home

[tidal current]

Just giving advice based on my personal experience with modding so I applied that same logic, update me

[snow root]

is there a mod for weapon skins that are either full black or the american flag like that one rpg skin?

i wanna use patriot skin but the skin is only for the rpg

[tidal current]

There is one called Rev Void by doomfan32 on mod portal that makes weapons venta black with red fx, that's the closest you'll get without making the mod yourself as far as Ik

@astral flume How's it going btw?

[astral flume]

I’m gonna do the skin stuff later today I think

[tidal current]

@amber crown Learned how to make Scratch masks by playing around with Blending mod in Ps and Combining Specular and Glossmaps
Left is with, right is without

[amber crown]

Oh it's beautiful

[tidal current]

Agreed, it's a subtle detail but it honestly adds a lot

I am using textures from diff Marauder skins since it's same meshes as sentinel training

[amber crown]

Really now?

[tidal current]

Yes, besides Helmet being a mask on the Marauder, Marauder is just senting training armor with more things on it

Engraved Sentinel writing on left shoulder, skulls on a leather strap, shotgun shells and 2 leather pouchs are all additions from the marauder

[amber crown]

Nice! I remember that

[tidal current]

The Sentinel knights in Immora Cutscenes for much more pouches instead of the skulls and a diff helm (The one I modifed) but besides that they also got the exact same Uv maps so the textures work

[amber crown]

This actually really helpful with what i have planned

[tidal current]

Elaborate

[amber crown]

I wanna make a bunch of marauder textures

[tidal current]

Like skins for the marauder?

[amber crown]

yes

[halcyon stratus]

@glass verge

Lil bug report.

[whole cedar]

about the same map this teleport failed for some reason and i had to noclip out of there

[glass verge]

I have been away for a little while, I will fix these problems when I’m home

[karmic musk]

Interesting art atyle

[halcyon stratus]

Are those Quake 2 textures?

[plush thicket]

No, those OTEX Textures, same textures used in eviternity mega wad

[plush thicket]

That one area, the map I working on, every area It have it own art style

It hell outskirts mixed with techbase

[halcyon stratus]

Oh hell yeah I need to play that sometime.

God that looks great.

[plush thicket]

Expect alot interconnected areas, alot of backtracking mostly optional stuff, consistent pacing in every new area

[tidal current]

Goves doom2 with some cosmic realm vibes ngl

[molten token]

I love the different vibe of this map!

[tidal current]

That's actually dope, I love how it gives both retro and modern vibes at the same times, well done

[exotic saddle]

Daaaang that's sick

[tired trout]

Anyone just have english.json on hand by any chance?

Yknow like gameresources_patch1\EternalMod\strings\english.json?

[tidal current]

@amber crown

While it's subtle that is kind of the point, it adds depth to the armor but isn't too much to where it's overwhelming

[amber crown]

This shit looks better and better every time I see it

[tidal current]

Because I am constantly learning how to improve and taking advice from a person who made a lot of slayer skins and has a lot of experience which provides me with great info to improve my skins

[tidal current]

The Runes & Decals got no height nor are the proper color yet as I wanna finish making them for every armor piece before I figure that out

[tidal current]

@amber crown Height is truly such a useful tool to add details and depth, it may look subtle at first glance but from experience I can tell you it can make such a difference and improve the look by a lot

[amber crown]

I put on height stuff on my VR avatars before and it really does make a difference

[halcyon stratus]

Is there a way to open up .pk5 files to edit them without idStudio?

I'm using Brochacho's enemy recolors mod and I want to make a couple of changes.

[tidal current]

Your best bet is to prob join the modding servers and ask Brochancho directly

[halcyon stratus]

Thing is I want to edit or delete certain monsters from the mod files because he refuses to make individual versions.

[drowsy ether]

Guys, how can I see in Eternal in more detail what attacks the AI ​​has, which ones it uses and which ones it doesn't use besides damage decl files?

[ancient urchin]

either im rlly tired or the demons on the official mod supp are easier then default, im doing some nightmare runs to practice for my un run and the demos are hitting me far more often and have longer reach am i the only one that notices that or am i tripping ??

i also only had QOL mods and remodels for doom slayer and weapons btw no difficulty tweak mods

[tidal current]

Try to remove each QOL mod one by one and see if it fixes it
Otherwise you might truly just be really tired XD
