just say "None" then

prisma ivy

My b

forest sparrow
#

before the NDA went down

jaunty meteor
#

I don't want to make a leap of logic, but I'd think that "testing/QA" implies that you actively helped out during a game's beta period, not just played it

vague egret
#

^

forest sparrow
#

i actually did help

#

lol

#

i have reported heinous gameplay bugs

jaunty meteor
#

Dota 2's beta had some 200,000 players, I doubt every one of them submitted bugs to the tracker or were in contact with the devs for bugsquashing, etc.

forest sparrow
#

hmm

crimson folio
#

this is not a hard concept- if you've playtested any game with any meaningful weight given to your input while playing it, throw it on.

vague egret
#

playing a 'beta" because you pre-ordered a game doesnt count

forest sparrow
#

i was there when it was just 200 people

crimson folio
#

that's what QA is.

forest sparrow
#

actually

graceful wing
#

oh yea i remember the super early D2 beta

#

took like 30 mins to get a game going

tame lichen
#

Most people treat betas as demos. Iโ€™d say if you actually made attempts to reach out to developers and report bugs, out down that experience.

foggy wadi
#

yea or been part of a games testing team

forest sparrow
#

30 minutes?

#

it was 6 minutes most

prisma ivy
#

That's what we're going for

prisma halo
#

What is QA/testing experience?
While it may sound like "hey I played this beta a while back" on the tin, what we're really looking for is any instances where you have played an early alpha/beta and actively reported bugs during that period.

If anything you've done in the past fits that bill, throw it onto the form.

If you've been placed in a game's credits for QA in the past as well, that's a big bonus. Definitely chuck that on there.

forest sparrow
#

yes i do that

graceful wing
#

ESPECIALLY if you've got your name credited in a game

forest sparrow
#

rip

graceful wing
#

that's a massive bonus

forest sparrow
#

what if i backed a kickstarter game :V

prisma halo
#

Credits under QA :p

graceful wing
#

^^

mighty dagger
#

this is too much excitement for me

#

i need a drink

prisma ivy
forest sparrow
#

eh, dota 2's credits don't even include their own developers

#

so it'll never happen

jaunty meteor
#

I only gave 3 examples because I thought that doing QA/editing for a couple of VN companies wouldn't help my case :p

rotund arch
#

how specific do they want me to be with my "Windows system specs"? do they just want my version of windows?

hexed roost
#

Good idea

sick lintel
#

did somebody say,,,, dusk world?

prisma halo
#

@rotund arch check pins

#

your question is answered there

hexed roost
#

When someone asks you for your system specs, what do you tell them? For starters, Windows version, CPU, GPU, RAM are all good things to mark down.

rotund arch
#

ah, thanks, didnt see it at first

mighty dagger
#

should maybe edit the form to include that info (GPU, CPU, RAM, OS)

sick lintel
#

for discord tag # do i just put number or username too?

prisma halo
#

both

sick lintel
#

ty

fair mirage
#

the entire thing

jaunty meteor
#

Your number is not unique to your username and vice-versa, they won't be able to find you unless you give them both

prisma halo
#

^

forest sparrow
#

alas

#

my picture back from the old days

prisma halo
#

You can think of the number following your Discord name as just a way for there to be multiple people with that name

forest sparrow
#

that was taken the same day i started dota the first time

quiet rose
#

Neat.

crimson folio
#

the day you ruined your life

forest sparrow
#

yes

#

so many hours of dota ๐Ÿ˜

prisma ivy
vague egret
forest sparrow
#

i am still screaming in confusion whether it is valid to put it there

vague egret
#

it is

forest sparrow
#

ok cool

#

also important to note

#

what are additional skills

#

can i include that i can cook a mean pasta?

vague egret
#

sure

crimson folio
#

just submitted it and i hope i dont look like a dumbass on it lol

vague egret
#

or put nothing

austere egret
#

Why is there so much chat in here? Was Dusk released?

forest sparrow
#

if i'm going to look like an dumbass, i may as well go all in

opal plover

duskworl betaaaaa

forest sparrow

ah fuck it

If i have really bad luck and run into glitches a lot even on super polished games, does that count as bug testing experience?

Already had to edit that form 3 times now, sorry if that stuff shows up multiple times

fair mirage
#

it'll only be one entry, you're fine

sick lintel
#

if im under nda for an ongoing alpha what do i put for testing experience ๐Ÿค”

crimson folio
#

Already had to edit that form 350 times now

prisma halo
#

You either put "None" or "None I can legally talk about"

#

Your choice

sick lintel
#

ok ty

mighty dagger
#

people cant be expected to read

#

we need hand holding

crimson folio
#

lol

hexed roost
#

this is all the hand holding you need

#

if you mess up the application

#

you get vac banned from dusk single player

#

easy

crimson folio
#

the form is the actual test

mighty dagger
#

ah but not dusk world

crimson folio
#

if you can figure out how to fill the form properly Dave knocks on your door and handdelivers a disc with the beta

hexed roost
#

correct

crimson folio
#

incorrect

hexed roost
#

it is air dropped via wright brothers plane

crimson folio
#

its a set of floppies

hexed roost
#

right to your door

urban sparrow
crimson folio
#

that's the second test

formal turret
#

what's this beta test thing

hexed roost
#

The date has not yet been announced

#

SOON:TM:

crimson folio
#

what's it sound like

prisma halo
#

Check pins @formal turret

formal turret
#

I wanna sign up

vague egret
#

so do it

formal turret
#

I did testing in the closed brutal doom betas

#

Dunno if that means anything

vague egret
#

do the thing. all will be reviewed later

crimson folio
#

enter the ring...

tawny briar
#

wtf is this

prisma halo
#

old build of dusk

crimson folio
#

me_irl

quiet rose
#

i member that build

prisma halo
#

I think that build is actually publicly available

quiet rose
#

still have it

crimson folio
#

tbh it actually looks pretty cool

opal plover
tawny briar
#

ooo

prisma halo
#

We recently found those gasmask dude models

#

The ones with the elephant trunks

#

I had to dig through a ton of old builds

formal turret
#

does it matter whats on my profile

tawny briar
#

where can i get the build

prisma halo
#

The one in the trailer screenshot above isn't public, the four builds I mentioned earlier you can find via searching in this channel

#

search for "DuskLevelDemo" or something

#

you'll find a bunch of posts by me

#

Just remember, these builds are SUPER old and I'm fairly sure they even predate New Blood's involvement with the game

crimson folio
#

this channel has done cool stuff in it if you're willing to dig

tawny briar
#

how do i search

crimson folio
#

lotta neat bits and pieces

prisma halo
#

top right corner of the discord window lol

Hello I'd like to enter the mp open beta, I'd love to get some information about how to if there's any chance.

I'm pretty sure that in any case that money was useful for poor lil David

formal turret

im talking about wolfenstein lol

crimson folio
#

CHEDDARHEADS DON'T APPLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

formal turret
#

even if it was worth pre ordering

crimson folio

#

the fact this image exists

i always get those two confused

real talk

as in

vague egret

probably

#

we expand as needed

crimson folio
#

is dawn shit probably gonna be creative

vague egret
#

also probably. these are bridges we will cross when we get there

#

depends on what the community wants and actually needs

crimson folio

yeah

just wondering, that's all

tawny briar
prisma halo
#

yes

tawny briar
#

i was just sooting the boom

opal plover
#

I just found it minutes ago

#

Also ragdolls in the earlybuild

#

That's funny

prisma halo

Yeah, the meat lass had a ragdoll at one point

Signed up so hard for beta

mild ginkgo

good!

#

the more the better

forest sparrow
#

wow the more the better?

#

doesn't that mean less people get duskworld

mild ginkgo
#

no

foggy wadi
#

they eventually need everyone in

forest sparrow
#

relative to the totals that is

mild ginkgo
#

it means when we open up the doors further

foggy wadi
#

i imagine to test servers

mild ginkgo
#

you all get in

#

ash davis knows his shit

forest sparrow
#

is it separate from regular dusk?

#

probably yes

mild ginkgo
#

yepperoni

forest sparrow
#

hmm

#

i see

#

i am kinda garbage at online shooters

#

way more of a single player shootmans

glossy gulch
#

I've played so many old shooters that I'm at the point where I can evenly compete with most people online

#

Not sure if I should be proud of dumping over 5,000 hours into online shooters or not ๐Ÿค”

wth

#

I havent seen this build of olDusk before

mild ginkgo
#

yeah MOST people haven

#

its VERY old

atomic egret
#

hook me up

crimson folio
#

all dusk builds have my dick pics

mild ginkgo
#

we didnt ask for people who are particularly skilled in the app

crimson folio
#

UNPAID

mild ginkgo
#

you can be terrible at shooters

#

we need a wide range of applicants

vague egret
#

we need pros and polygon tier journalists

crimson folio
#

nice oxymoron

#

lol jk

opal plover
#

I like how early versions of dusk are called "quakegame"

crimson folio
#

had to

quartz pebble
#

nice, just edited my application form for the third time because i didn't know that you need to know my os too

mild ginkgo
#

ayyy

quartz pebble
#

this has probably been asked before, but when will we be able to buy the soundtrack? will it be part of the deluxe edition (or whatever it's called)?

crimson folio
#

ayyy

#

aight lain you got me

hexed roost
#

You'll be able to by the OST when the game comes out or shortly after

quartz pebble
#

ok

prisma halo

ok

hollow flame
#

Can you buy the assets to make a shitty asset flip on unity free mode

proud tide
#

Hey, when it says Windows only did it meant that I only had to put my OS?

#

I think I fucked up real bad

#

Because I think that the only thing I didn't put was my OS

#

:(

hollow flame
#

Put linux and see what happens

fair mirage
#

you can edit it

proud tide
#

Oh good lord yes

hollow flame
#

Can you put ms dos?

proud tide
#

Yes

#

I put commodore 64

hollow flame
#

What if you have more then one computer?

#

Like i have a mac and a pc

#

Should I put both?

proud tide
#

You put the PC

fair mirage
#

windows only m8

proud tide
#

because mac sucks dick

hollow flame
#

Whats wrong with sucking dick boi

vague egret
proud tide
#

Hey but we're talking about the beta details :(

hollow flame
#

Are you looking for multiple types of windows or just 10

vague egret
#

just windows

fair mirage
#

and getting off-topic :p

hollow flame
#

So any windows os?

fair mirage
#

yes

hollow flame
#

Within reason

vague egret
#

specifically 3.1

quiet rose
#

7+

proud tide
#

Windows 9

hollow flame
#

3.1 it is

graceful wing
#

windows longhorn

hollow flame
#

Actually i should see if i could get dusk to run off raspberry pi

mild ginkgo
#

well raspi runs ARM

#

so thatll be hard

hollow flame
#

Yea

hollow minnow
#

If you ever want to port dusk (and amid evil for that matter) to linux, I'd be a willing guinea pig

frozen heart
#

we just need the standard steamid right?

#

not the 3 or 64

Any of em work

trying to remember all the Betas i've been in

i maybe could've listed a bunch of Doom mods; that kinda counts

frozen heart
#

heh

prisma kestrel
#

most of those are things i've been involved in as a mapper though

#

I did list Square since that counts kinda :P

#

everyone wears the QA hat in that team

tawny briar
#

can we bring that wind sound back i was playing the old builds and i love that sound

frozen heart
#

now what additional skills can i come up with to gussy up my application

you're my pubg carry

that's what you can put

i think the joke went over ash davis's head like 500 years ago

CAN WE GET ONE OF THOSE REALLY THICK OLD SCHOOL MANUALS THAT TELL YOU LITERALLY EVERY LITTLE THING ABOUT THE GAME

maybe

crude forge
#

Man i miss those manuals

mild chasm
#

Make sure to include a pointless little backstory that is contradicted somewhat by later installments

#

That's probably the most important part

crude forge

Last time anyone made a manual like that was during the days of the wii and the ds

Thank you for all your saintly doings, Shillbot

That Dusk gameplay got me excited. I loved the fact that the mid bosses, the Duke Bros, are now regular enemies in the later part of the game, like old school Doom.

I demand Duke Bros action figures with coffins.

3D printing a cultist wouldn't be hard, it's just getting it painted up right. I suppose you could just print out a sticker sheet of the texture and apply that.

Is doubling a UV map as a sticker sheet for 3D printing an already established thing 3D printer people do? Because that's pretty clever ๐Ÿ‘€

ive got links to the stuff ive helped on too does that get me a cookie or a face slap?

Do I just have to write windows 10 in the application or the exact version of it?

just windows 10 will suffice

I just used average, but If average is in the middle of the scoreboard on arena shooters

then im higher

mild ginkgo

when you own a youtube channel named that

west bolt
#

im usually in the top 3

hollow flame
#

why didn't you guys put a dave option for skill?

exotic ibex

to be considered a rocket jump ninja you must beat @unique saffron in QL

Yeah fuck that

can you send a clip?

what do you mean send a clip?

can you do this?

well, im a cs bhopper and surfer but I have no ideal how much skill it takes in reflex

imma just stay with average for now

mild ginkgo
#

here is the standard

#

if you can match this

west bolt
#

for bug testing your skill doesn't really matter anyways right?

thats correct

#

Will there be a tracker available for beta participants?

quiet rose
#

Tracker?

jaunty meteor
#

A bug tracker

crimson folio
#

^

jaunty meteor
#

Something to categorize reported issues

crimson folio
#

forgot to ask this

quiet rose
#

Possibly.

#

But we would most likely be playing with whoever is selected. So at least one of us will be there.

prisma halo
#

Could probably set something up pretty easily regardless

#

Time will tell

#

I'd say just wait until it starts

crimson folio
#

"But we would most likely be playing with whoever is selected. So at least one of us will be there."

#

good luck with documentation with that method

quiet rose
#

๐Ÿ™„

crimson folio
#

ya know

prisma halo
#

We have our own internal stuff we can use

quiet rose
#

^

prisma halo
#

We just don't have any public-facing place to report them atm

#

but that's simple to set up

crimson folio
#

yeah, but that just seems more out of the way

quiet rose
#

It'll work.

prisma halo
#

I'm sure there'll be a place to report them anyway, it'd be silly not to

crimson folio
#

either you can have the users report it to you and then to your docs

quiet rose
#

It has been working so far.

crimson folio
#

or

#

you can have them report to the tracker

prisma halo
#

Either way on day 1 at least, devs will be there

quiet rose
#

or.

#

We will have something set up that's not so public for the testers.

prisma halo
#

After that if there's no bug tracker, one will be set up

quiet rose
#

Aren't exactly gonna be like "ok here you go testers here's our internal tracker"

prisma halo
#

yeah lmao

quiet rose
#

That's just foolish.

prisma halo
#

that's asking for leaks

#

We've been lucky so far

#

Surprised that pre pre pre alpha never leaked

crimson folio

never said that

#

Yeah, just saying

quiet rose
#

It'll get set up when it needs to get set up.

crimson folio
#

fair enuff

prisma halo
#

it'd take literally less than five minutes to get going anyway

quiet rose
#

Right.

prisma halo
#

so yeah, don't worry about it, we've got it covered

crimson folio
#

i just worry... for the children

#

someone has got to protect the children!

#

QC team gonna hit hard

#

godspeed you magnificent bastards

prisma halo

๐Ÿ‘Œ

mild chasm
#

Give us david's computer password

#

to report bugs

crimson folio
#

duskworld fourm

#

ok i think i could make a good response

#

Q A

#

welp looks like im not getting in any time soon

valid path
#

just completed episode 1

bronze nacelle
#

dw forums?

#

what?

#

where?

prisma halo
#

nowhere

#

he meant form

#

as in signup form

bronze nacelle
#

oh

valid path
#

aight just wanna say

#

dusk is gonna be my #1 game of the year

mild ginkgo
#

who said anything about having done QA having any weight on your ability to get in?

#

we're simply collecting data

solar mason
#

ill just slap all them random open and closed betas in there

mild ginkgo
#

^this is the expected/good move

frozen heart
#

well shit i should go back and triple the size of the ones i listed then

#

:^)

frozen radish
#

are we going to be able to host our own dedicated servers on the beta or is it going to be p2p?

exotic ibex
#

its not going to be peer 2 peer

#

i can say that

frozen heart
#

good cuz p2p is ๐Ÿคข

solar mason
#

the new doosk gameplay looks badass

crimson folio
#

oh so i was supposed to put all the betas i've been in?

mild ginkgo
#

well it did say testing

crimson folio
#

i included them, then i didnt

mild ginkgo
#

a beta

#

is a test

#

therefore, my friend, might be a good idea

#

you can edit your response

#

so no worries

west bolt
#

then I got like 20

#

I only put in the once that where invite only for bug reporting

mild ginkgo
#

you dont need to do all of them, we just wanna know if you are used to the beta testing process

hollow flame
#

I dunno if the cod ww2 open beta counts

west bolt
#

if that counts ill change to 40

hollow flame
#

will people with experience be given preference?

west bolt
#

and do steam early acces games count to? xD

hollow flame
#

Shame everyone is offline

jaunty meteor
#

Just remember that

#

What is QA/testing experience? While it may sound like "hey I played this beta a while back" on the tin, what we're really looking for is any instances where you have played an early alpha/beta and actively reported bugs during that period.

hollow flame
#

Doesnt really answer the preference question tho

west bolt
#

thats what I wrote

jaunty meteor
#

If I can be honest for a moment, it's not in the best interest of New Blood to say which parts of the survey will most influence your odds of getting in

hollow flame
#

@mild ginkgo

west bolt
#

well have to w8 for a mod to answer that

jaunty meteor
#

They want honest answers, not skewed ones from dudes who want in on the first pass

mild ginkgo
#

^

#

we arent gonna say if some of these are even considered

#

just be aware we are looking for a mix of people to represent a population

#

so all skill levels, pc performance levels, knowledge levels, and locations will be considered

hollow flame
#

Well im out then

mild ginkgo
#

what

#

why

hollow flame
#

Shitty Australian internet

#

Unless pacific servers

exotic ibex
#

what do you think zombie has?

#

lol

mild ginkgo
#

i said all locations will be considered

jaunty meteor
#

Who says that immediately precludes you from participation? For all you know they may favor people with shitty internet so they can test how their netcode handles 200+ ping!

mild ginkgo
#

i feel like you didnt even read what i wrote

hollow flame
#

International space station?

mild ginkgo
#

thats correct flotilla

#

in fact, worst case ping is one of the biggest things that needs testing

hollow flame
#

Excellent mine is only 4000 max

mild ginkgo
#

our record so far is a player at 2600 ping lmao

hollow flame
#

Well 24,000 if bioware

jaunty meteor
#

how do you even

hollow flame
#

BIOWARE

exotic ibex
#

unstable internet

jaunty meteor
#

I had satellite internet at a point and my ping wasn't that bad

mild ginkgo
hollow flame
#

Wait till you see mine

mild ginkgo
#

as you can see

#

we want to test the full range

#

so you dont need to have anxiety about your answers

#

eventually you will get in

hollow flame
#

What if you put dave is a cunt?

exotic ibex
#

i'll get a good laugh

hollow flame
#

I just spammed dacon 3 for mine

exotic ibex
#

will get a decent vape chortle

hollow flame
#

When will the winners be announced?

mild ginkgo
#

well at the end of every match the winner is announced

#

thats how multiplayer games usually work

hollow flame
#

I meant when will the beta testers be announced

#

Or informed

#

Idk

crimson folio
#

a dacon3 is mailed to their door

mild ginkgo
#

the beta testers will be notified when the beta goes live

hollow flame
#

When is that

crimson folio
#

pm or email?

jaunty meteor
#

When it happens BOY

crimson folio
#

i barely check my email now

jaunty meteor
#

"First things first, we need you to fill out the linked application. In the coming weeks, we will select a small batch of testers and gradually add more as time goes on."

mild ginkgo
#

Thats not determined as of yet, youll likely be contacted on discord

exotic ibex
#

calm down now

jaunty meteor
#

This is the most specific timeframe you'll get most likely

exotic ibex
#

cmon now krab

hollow flame
#

Ree

exotic ibex
#

cant be goign around word filter now

#

you know better

#

smh

hollow flame
#

There is a word filter for that?

mild ginkgo
#

the first waves will probably be notified via DM here

exotic ibex
#

just try typing the word and see if its filtered

#

if its filtered

mild ginkgo
#

however we may move to email as the waves expand

#

we cant be dming 5000 people

hollow flame
#

Its not filtered

exotic ibex
#

wow okay

#

i didnt think that wasnt filtered

mild ginkgo
#

.mute @hollow flame

hollow ivyBOT
#

@mild ginkgo koala#7803 has been muted from text and voice chat.

mild ginkgo
#

15 minutes

exotic ibex
#

anywhoo. you guys will know when it happens. just be patient.

mild ginkgo
#

if you must know the form, its likely youll be getting granted a steam app

#

at a cetain point when we reach open beta, all dusk owners will be granted access

crimson folio
#

fuck i just realised their uniform makes them look like black mesa scientists

#

thats a jolly good reference

mild ginkgo
#

.unmute @hollow flame

hollow ivyBOT

@mild ginkgo koala#7803 has been unmuted from text and voice chat.

crimson folio
#

sneaky

mild ginkgo
#

but how do you know if its dusk or AE music? ๐Ÿค”

crimson folio
#

dusk

#

sounds very quake-y

#

sounds like a chris vrenna kind of track

strange dome
#

hey, its me again! Also encountered framedrops in e1m2, when i enter the house and kill the leatherneck, instantly dropping to 72 frames... now i think there is something wrong with my pc xD

mild ginkgo
#

ill try to investigate that @รŸรฒรณm#5252 , thanks for the heads up

strange dome
#

just letting you know @mild ginkgo since im a very big fan of the game and really want its release to be as flawless as possible for others to enjoy as well ๐Ÿ˜„ whats weird though is that in endless mode, i get no framedrops whatsoever, after 50 waves smooth 144 all the way

exotic ibex
#

try 400+

#

lol

mild ginkgo
#

we're actually solving a small issue with saves regarding performance and memory right now, so expect a patch soon

#

we're doing our best to have a steady framerate and frame pace

#

e1m2 is notoriously the worst performing level in the game, and has been a focus for a bit

#

low performance mode may alleviate some of your issues

strange dome
#

oh ok, good to know, gonna try that out, thank you for your information! keep up the good work guys ๐Ÿ˜„

bronze nacelle
#

how many people signed for the beta?

crimson folio
#

many

cerulean canyon
#

is there any information about SDK? Cant wait to start modding ๐Ÿ˜„

mild chasm
#

The twist is that we all have to play a quake live match together and the top 5 are the only ones who get to play the duskworld beta

mild ginkgo
#

why yes, there is

#

@cerulean canyon

mild chasm
mild ginkgo
#

+ TrenchBroom is the "officially" supported mapping tool, but that doesn't mean others won't receive support or testing.
+ The SDK will contain various tools to aid with mod creation, but none are necessary if you enjoy developing raw (shaders are exempt from this).
+ Scripting is done in C#, however you are not required to compile scripts yourself (think DECORATE/ZScript in GZDoom).
+ There are a series of custom definition formats to define maps, game settings, etc.
+ The official game data formats are IQM (models), PNG (textures), flac (audio), however they are not the only ones you can use.
+ You are able to load Quake 3 MD3 models, and potentially Quake 1 MDL models down the line. However, this feature is not officially supported, so don't expect it to be flawless.
+ Yes, there will be a console. It's comparable to Quake 2 and GZDoom's.
+ An .fgd and a .wad will be provided for use in Quake mapping tools. The game itself does not load these files.
+ There is a feature called "unsafe mode" that gives modders completely unhindered access to the internal and Unity APIs through scripting. However, making a mod require this feature is discouraged, and players must manually enable unsafe mode themselves.
+ A portion of cut/unused content will be left in the game for modders to make use of.```
cerulean canyon
#

oh super nice

strange dome
#

ok, now i think it definitely is about the quick save function that triggers the framedrops, same problem on e1m3, encountering enemy, me killing him = 72 frames...
loading the level from level select = 144 frames through the whole level

mild ginkgo
#

in case you didnt catch it, we are supporting bsp (what trenchbroom ultimately leads to)

#

yes, there is a quick save issue at the moment that we discovered just last night

#

and you should expect a patch for it shortly

#

the more quick saves you do in one sitting

#

the more memory gets consumed

#

we didnt notice the issue until just yesterday

#

however we already have the problem sourced and a fix will be rolled out shortly

cerulean canyon
#

hmm. I have never used that software. Is it possible to make custom characters?

mild ginkgo
#

yes!

#

custom models/characters are fully supported

#

trenchbroom is only for mapping

#

you dont need it if you are making custom enemies/characters

strange dome
#

nice, thanks! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

mild chasm
#

Are custom animations supported, actually

cerulean canyon
#

If possible it would be nice to get somekind of guide for it when modding is enabled.

mild chasm
#

That wasn't mentioned in the info dump and I don't think it's been asked before

mild ginkgo
#

yes

#

both interpolated and non interpolated

#

if you want more of a quake 1 style of animation

#

there will be a Full wiki on the SDK when it is released

#

including documentation, examples, instruction, etc

cerulean canyon
#

oh nice

crimson folio
#

hey, read about some MP testing, is this the right place for that?

mild chasm
#

Look in the pins for this channel, it has the link for the application to sign up for the Duskworld beta

sick lintel
#

cant wait to,,, port tf2 weapons to dusk as skins

mild chasm
#

Also answers to questions you might have about the things to fill out

sick lintel
#

wonderful thing about a game like dusk is with a good sdk it should be very simple to port stuff yes?

mild ginkgo
#

yes

#

very

#

insanely simple

sick lintel
#

mmmmm nice

crimson folio
#

oh, is it windows only?

jade root
#

yes

#

for now, at least

crimson folio
#

ah I see, guess I'll have to wait a bit then

jade root
#

dont worry, we'll eventually need testers for other OS's

#

so just keep an eye open

crimson folio
#

sure thing

sick lintel
#

linux wine skin...

hexed plaza
#

I applied.

#

Now I wait.

crimson folio
#

@sick lintel I would rather not add wine to a testing setup

mild ginkgo
#

good guy uhu

#

now i know whos first wave when linux is being tested

crimson folio

โค

sick lintel

๐Ÿ‘

So when does the beta actually go live?

#

Like access getting sent out?

mild ginkgo
#

i cant say much more than very soon

crimson folio
mild ginkgo
#

and it will continue until release

hexed plaza
#

Noice.

foggy wadi
#

its super soon forreal now

eventually everyone who's preordered dusk will have access to the beta

duskworld cancelled

prisma kestrel

fook, had to fix my steamid on the survey

#

thanks for making it editable :P

#

I get things correctly on the first go approximately 0% of the time

crimson folio
#

^^^^

mild ginkgo
#

well, theres the hidden question on the form

#

and that is the "did you manage to actually fill it out correctly" question

obtuse apex
#

i thought dusk was canceled

crimson folio
#

it is now

obtuse apex
#

finally

mild ginkgo
#

@obtuse apex dont worry, youre already in ๐Ÿ˜Ž

obtuse apex

action track Andrew just send me is ๐Ÿ”ฅ af, but that's not really a surprise anymore

mystic basalt
#

can we talk about map scale for a second?

#

if i used the q1 models in trenchbroom, are they close enough to dusk models

#

scale wise

prisma halo
#

I don't think so

#

but there'll be ways to scale maps automatically when the game loads them

#

so you can safely map with quake sizes

mystic basalt
#

thank mr zombie

crude forge
#

aww i didnt get duskworld ;-;

vague egret
#

nobody has duskworld yet

foggy wadi
#

you can still sign up

crude forge

tehn youll eventually get in

crude forge

not sure if i put my laptop's specs in right tho

foggy wadi
#

no worries ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

vague egret

everyone will eventually get to play

crude forge

i got the general idea in tho, i have an amd a...8?

#

the one that sucks at rendering minecraft in creative mode

#

imma see if i cant put in my specs more accurately

#

i wanna get another bug tester job

#

out of the 5 i already have

jade root
#

yeah no one has duskworld yet

#

we are still waiting for apps to come in

#

then theres the reviewing process

vague egret

testing itself likely wont start for a couple more weeks

timid pumice
#

ayo devs, how about the dank ass release date of november 11th? no one will forget you

jade root

what

timid pumice

do you get the shit joke

vague egret
#

release dates suck. we dont do em

timid pumice
#

k neat

jade root
#

yeah we dont do release dates

#

cause we'll miss em and you will get angery

timid pumice
#

k then hit me up when SOONtm becomes soon for real

jade root
#

angery <- you when we miss a release date

timid pumice
#

jabronii, i am relatively a n g e r y

heh, even the lack of a release date is causing some slight feather rufflin' :P

For real though, I just saw episode 2 and it looks fantastic. Thank you for this gift.

it came out

I thought it was an early build though

DO IT

ok

don't listen to jab

#

do it anyways

forest sparrow
#

oh its xaser

#

what a sighting

jade root
#

we've got a buncha doom dudes here

forest sparrow
#

okay so, i have a question

#

can i play arcane dimensions inside dusk

jade root
#

not positive, i bet @mild ginkgo will know though

#

i imagine porting the map will work

fair mirage
#

xaser pops in pretty frequently

jade root
#

but as for lighting, world interactivity, enemies, and items, that will have to be replaced by hand

#

you cant just drag a full quake map and drop it into dusk and expect to just play it ezpz like that, youd need the textures, enemy models/data, and so on

junior bobcat
#

so hows the special collectors digital pre-order ultimate edition stuff going

Hey guys, I filled the form previously but i think i had an error. Is it okay if i fill it again?

if not just resubmit

we'll understand

obtuse apex

try turning it off and on

prisma ivy

Click the link to the form and you should be able to edit

#

But like jab said, just resubmit if you can't. Not that big an issue.

desert fractal
#

Yeah, I do can edit it. Is the discord tag formar name#number?

#

format*

vague egret
#

i think many of you are too paranoid about the application. what you have is likely fine.

and at the end of the day, all of you will get to play anyways. application quality wont have that much of a bearing after a short while

And yes it is name#number

crimson folio

how many '''heavy''' tracks will there be?

sacred flume
#

with the application form

#

do I just copy and paste my steam profile url for the steamID thingy?

crimson folio
#

i dont think its url

#

just the id tag thing

sacred flume
#

ok

graceful wing
#

ID32 or ID64

sacred flume
#

would I just do something like id/Robot_Destroyer/

graceful wing
#

Nah, a number sequence

prisma ivy
#

Give us your steam id number

sacred flume
#

ok one sec

crimson folio
#

id32? shit i thought it was the normal steam id

prisma ivy
#

Look at pins for a app that will get it for you

graceful wing
#

There should be a link in the pins

crimson folio
#

gotta go change that then

sacred flume
#

it appears that my profile already uses a custom URL

#

would that work?

#

ah, nevermind, found my actual ID

hexed plaza

I just popped in my custom URL.

at the end is ID32/64? yesterday steev said it was STEAM_0:1:XXXXXX

oh ok, Thanks

what you shouldn't put in is your url, but i think you'll be fine as long as you don't change it

prisma kestrel

[hadn't ran through E1 in a while and was all "hey that's a good idea, shillo!"

Yea you're fine as long as you don't change the url

e1m7 and e1m8 have the best ones

hi

like lain said, the application quality won't really matter in the long run since it'll eventually be open to those who own dusk

prisma kestrel

hehe, everyone scramblin' to get in early

#

this is a good sign :P

graceful wing
#

Yea the apps just determine when you get in

fair mirage

i expected it, people have been waiting for a while to try duskworld

Everyone's gonna have a chance to play in later tests

would i get rekt? ๐Ÿค”

@delicate hatch I have that issue, I have to have a controller plugged in, in order for it to work right

mild ginkgo
#

@delicate hatch try unplugging a controller if you have it plugged in, or deleting your config might help, and relaunch the game

delicate hatch
#

Alt tabbing out and then alt tabbing in again solved it

you could look in the saveimages folder
