XL shell casings

[true cypress]

I WAKE UP AND SEE EP 2

HUZZAH

[warped saffron]

After running DUSK with "-window-mode exclusive" one time I can't get Gsync to work at all. The intro video runs at like 4500 fps and sometimes crashes. Super weird. @mild ginkgo Your tip about scaling worked on another Unity game that was dropping frames so I'm assuming it will work for DUSK once I get it to behave normally. Does DUSK save settings somewhere on my pc other than the Steam folder? I can't find anything.

[jaunty meteor]

CHRISTMAS CAME LIKE A TRUCK AAAAAA

What a thing to wake up to!

[warped saffron]

I've also uninstalled and reinstalled DUSK, restarted, all the good stuff.

[jaunty meteor]

welp the vjoy issue still exists, time to uninstall

vjoy, that is

I'd never look a gift horse in the mouth :p

[formal turret]

this episdoe is

really hard

[winged otter]

nah,ep1 is too easy

[exotic ibex]

if ep2 is hard just imagine ep3

[humble wigeon]

EP2 is kicking my ass

So its pretty great

[modern trellis]

Dusk EXE not responding... REEEEEEEE

[quaint cliff]

okay

second level is good

love the atmosphere before grabbing the key

[graceful wing]

👍

remember to post stuff with spoilers to #345953464720949250 btw

we brought that channel back from the abyss

[gleaming berry]

Glad to see everyone enjoying ep 2. Please report bugs and spread the gospel of DUSK

[thin sphinx]

oh ep2 is now available to play?

[exotic ibex]

[thin sphinx]

what state finished?

is it done 100% with only bugfixes to remain for it?

[exotic ibex]

yes

update your game if you haven’t

[high kindle]

Yo wtf

[exotic ibex]

[high kindle]

Thats dank

[graceful wing]

ep 2 is just about 100% done

[mild ginkgo]

Yeah it's content complete for the most part, just minor bugs etc

[thin sphinx]

ah i guessed

[mild ginkgo]

It's till going through QA

[graceful wing]

please report any bugs you may run into on the forums though 😎 👍

[thin sphinx]

[modern trellis]

Well that's not very nice.

[thin sphinx]

EA and duskworld release

[graceful wing]

EA

duskworld open beta

[thin sphinx]

EA makes me cringw when i see it

[graceful wing]

us too

but it's the best route for us to take

and we won't remain there for long

[exotic ibex]

hopefully we get an ep4 that’s better than doom’s ep4

[thin sphinx]

i got that from El Oshcuro

post on the Steam forums

[graceful wing]

aye

[thin sphinx]

an ep4 would be cool to see

[graceful wing]

that announcement explained pretty much everything that's commonly asked here

[thin sphinx]

i do like how tough the 4th ep starts out just wish it remained that tough

[high kindle]

It was a good idea Upgrading the standard edition if bough before christmas

[thin sphinx]

haha yeah

the new version is cool

[high kindle]

that made me pretty happy today

[graceful wing]

we wanted something to say thanks to y'all with 😃

hope a free CE is enough

THANKS FOR THE SUPPORT ❤

[winged otter]

i wonder if modding community pick up interest in dusk

[exotic ibex]

i’m glad i preordered the game 2 months ago

[graceful wing]

❤

[thin sphinx]

razer black widow croma v2 is what the keyboard is avian

[winged otter]

yep,im preordered game day one.loving dusk so far

[high kindle]

It's just a so good game, you just have to support it!

[exotic ibex]

good thing new blood cares about the game and the fans

unlike today’s devs

[crimson folio]

Got till ep 7 and stopped for a bit, so much to take in, got through the teleporter and i was like, holy shit. The level design is fucking amazing. DUSK YOU'RE SO AMAZING

[graceful wing]

yeah imagine that

we don't just see you guys as walking dollar signs

[exotic ibex]

lol

[sullen carbon]

Man I gotta mute ep 2 discussion

Trying to find every secret and still on e2m1 but everyone's posting cool ass screenshots

I can't fucking wait

[graceful wing]

heh, i could hide the channel from you if you'd like

[exotic ibex]

i found 2 secrets on e2m1 so far

[sullen carbon]

Nah I just need to stop peeking in 😛

[graceful wing]

👍

[humble wigeon]

Also has Duskdude been doing push-ups between episodes because I don't remember being able to toss barrels this far

Eating his greens, doing his pull-ups.

[graceful wing]

all those hups from duskworld gave him some of dem muscles

[humble wigeon]

Sit-hups

[graceful wing]

pull-hups

[humble wigeon]

push-hups

[unique ivy]

Oh wait

Dusk ep 2 released??

Goddamn I'm not at home for the download

[torpid ledge]

thank you for the present

i thought it was gonna be like january what a nice surprise

[unique ivy]

Time to mute duskep2 discussion s until I actually play ep2

[exotic ibex]

i have an idea for a mod

the player is trapped in a maze with random monsters

and all the weapons are hidden away

[limber forum]

is anyone else downloading episode 2 right now?

[exotic ibex]

i installed it at 2 or 3 pm

[graceful wing]

probably a bunch

[exotic ibex]

i’m still on e2m2

[orchid ore]

http://store.steampowered.com/sub/439/

idk when but i know i got it, bought quake 1 as well

[crimson folio]

fuckin hell, always unlucky with the keys.... was busy flushing corpses down the toiliet 😦

[pearl imp]

Pretty sure Hexen’s been on Steam for years. Got it as part of the id bundle a while ago

[winged otter]

i was expecting Dusk keys so i was not paying attention

[uneven belfry]

Same

Im poor so i need every chance i can get

[winged otter]

propably buy AE in march

[crimson folio]

ofc i m gonna buy it

BUT

i want it now :/

you know how it is

[uneven belfry]

I'll get it if there's a sale

[thorn trout]

Dave is chaotic good at best

[muted tusk]

Ima get it as soon as its available

[jade root]

dave and good dont belong in the same sentence

[pearl imp]

He rolled high on charisma tho

[jade root]

unless its "dave is good at being a frikken idiot !!!"

[crimson folio]

so rude

roooood

poor davy

getting bullied

[strange dome]

72 frames cap?

[mild ginkgo]

What

[strange dome]

yep, occasionally going up to 144, but only for seconds

[gleaming berry]

Sounds like some more gsync

[valid path]

gsync SUCKS

[vivid cape]

totally unnecessary for dusk

[graceful wing]

yea that has to be some kind of external frame limiting

disable all of it

[strange dome]

weird, but ok, seems like its stable now after i disabled all of these things... still feels janky though, but that could be only me

[valid path]

fuuck I wanna play ep2 so bad

[dim valve]

[dim valve]

Stranger still is that it says they own Dusk, but they're posting like they've never even played it. lol

[fair mirage]

complaining about reboots not being exactly the same game to a T

[dim valve]

Well, when Dusk (2027) comes out, I think it'll cause the same reaction

[jade root]

I want to reply to him with "what" but im not gonna touch that fire

[dim valve]

There's a certain professionalism when it comes to touching the poop, so you're making the right choice

[thorn trout]

I'm disappointed he feels that way but there's also nothing actionable in his post. We've all done the best job we can making Dusk feel authentic and new at the same time. That's all we can do.

[jade root]

im just gonna lock it

incase it may be bait

@dusky dew plz explain post much appreciate

[dim valve]

@dusky dew gets trolled

[opaque spindle]

I like how he didn't have one actual complaint

It was all just vauge bullshit that doesn't mean anything

[sullen carbon]

If that is bait it is pretty top tier

Lazy and half hearted is the last thing I think of when I think duskdev

[opaque spindle]

Yeah

[gleaming berry]

I think it might be bait

I read it earlier

I'm old it's hard to tell these days

[jaunty meteor]

I wouldn't call it bait; some people are just tone-deaf and always assume they're speaking to a brick wall

[gleaming berry]

You kids are real good at shit posting

[jade root]

I locked it

[torpid ledge]

ep 2 is perfect

dont really feel like moderating that

[toxic wadi]

i respect that you guys did $20 instead of the $19.99 shit also

[crimson folio]

Thanks guys I am going to purchase your game right now!

[graceful wing]

we just really wanted that extra cent

[hexed roost]

that cent helps us fund our secret island we put all the sales money on

[acoustic oriole]

im gonna play ep2 in about 11 hours from now... better than counting down to jan 11th though, lemme tell ya

[balmy sluice]

If I buy my friend dusk, I'm assuming he will be able to play ep 1 and 2? Only asking since the main page still says "Pre-Purchase and Play Episode 1 NOW"

[prisma ivy]

He will be able to play episode 2 as well

[balmy sluice]

Sweet, thanks

[elfin pine]

I mess up a quick save... there´s anyway to restart the level?

[night quartz]

Anyone know how to quickly restore the default bindings in Dusk? Just got it today for Christmas and wanting to revert to back to the way it was.

[hexed roost]

Go to, \steamapps\common\DUSK Episode 1\config, delete dusk.ini, then validate game files on Steam.

It should get you a new ini.

@night quartz

[night quartz]

thanks!

[graceful wing]

aye, the only thing this update broke was saves. progression is intact

[brittle summit]

Does anyone else find the climbing powerup kind of broken?

I've gotten very stuck several times, couldnt escape

[shut mesa]

you can probably achieve the same with riveter jumps

if ur bad enough

[brittle summit]

not if you dont have a riveter

the powerup seems to screw up when you transition from a wall to a sloped surface

[ruby pewter]

holy crap guys

Played dusk for the first time yesterday, since school isn't interfering

David has done one hell of a job

[jade root]

Dusk do a good

[ruby pewter]

can't wait for the rest

and mods

[brittle summit]

I want to find the person who designed those invisible monsters and punch them in the head

winter theme would be dope, i love well made winter maps in video games. There aren t much out there either

make a winter map with a descent into "hell" 😄

where Dave is waiting with a pitch fork in each hand

[modern trellis]

150k made so far off of Dusk so far, with a potential to crack a half a million if wishlisters nut up. That's not too shabby depending on how much Valve mooches off of your sales.

[gleaming berry]

LOL

Valve takes 30%

Then taxes

Dusk has not made us any money yet

[crimson folio]

fuckin 30%......

[gleaming berry]

Welcome to video games

[crimson folio]

FU GABE

well. lets hope the EA shit gets you more sales, should be at least

[gleaming berry]

I've been able to pay David pretty decently so far but he's been working on the game for almost two years he could have gotten a regular job lol

I'm sure DUSK will do fine

Or we can all go get normal jobs again lol

[crimson folio]

no

normal jobs suck and make you unhappy

[gleaming berry]

Yeah but unlike making games u can like stop and start at almost normal hours

Making games is basically 24/7 job

[crimson folio]

ofc there is always an upside and a downside, huge upside for you guys is you get our love ♥

yeah, i get what you sayin

i used to work 80 hours per week in a period of time

[balmy sluice]

Wow, is it really 30%?!

I thought it was like 10 at the most

[crimson folio]

Gabe deserves all the shit i talk about him

i wouldn t be suprised if we don t see any games from valve at all

fak my english

[muted tusk]

Fuck valve and fuck gabe

I say we eat them both

Absorb the entire steam library

[crimson folio]

you get Diabetes if u eat gabe

[muted tusk]

Will I get all his hats too

[crimson folio]

if u eat him up , maybe

[muted tusk]

Might be worth the sickness then

[crimson folio]

lol

[sullen carbon]

I did my part past two days, dropped $100 on dusk, just waiting for this paycheck to hit so I can get a few more copies

Definitely want to see nb successful with all the people pouring their heart and soul into this

[slate edge]

Dusk GOTY 2017

[warped saffron]

yo this game is good and stuff

[jaunty meteor]

Dusk has gotten as far as it has almost solely through word of mouth, I'm sure it'll do pretty well when it's out proper

[thorn trout]

yeah if you look at it without considering everything, Dusk has made pretty good money for an indie game. But also it's been a full time job for 2 years and Dave's put money into marketing it.

[warped saffron]

Ye ye ye ye ye ye all the FPS nerd circles seem to know and love DUSK. ❤

[thorn trout]

not complaining at all of course, just pointing out that you have to look at more than the raw sales data

when considering how much a game actually grosses when all is said and done

I can't work normal jobs. They just kill me inside

[warped saffron]

Yeah that net is a b, especially on Steam after the Valve cut. I wish you guys the best, you deserve it!

[crimson folio]

@thorn trout is episode 2 some nightmare you had ?

[thorn trout]

not that I remember. Just ideas :)

[sick lintel]

i have no dreams, only nightmares

they wouldn't really be coherent enough to make into a game either

would be nice to start writing them down tho just in ase

case*

[gleaming berry]

PATCH GOING LIVE

[vivid cape]

for E2?

oh yeah

got it

22.5MB

[sullen carbon]

Will said patch bone my saves?

Might wanna beat e2 first before I patch just in case

[mild ginkgo]

No

It wont

[prisma halo]

I'd like to say that the only future patch to bone your saves would be the SDK one, but never say never

[prisma ivy]

THE FUTURE

[hexed roost]

How to test if your save is broken

Load it, if everything is black, your save is fucked

[thorn trout]

yeah the patch shouldn't effect saves at all

[hexed roost]

(Thankfully, this patch was small enough and didn't change anything critical. Your saves are fine... for now... But when the full game comes out, or if there are any large updates, expect your saves to break.)

[jaunty meteor]

I still can't believe pretty much the entire game is being rerwritten for the SDK patch

[thorn trout]

we won't break saves unless it's a major change (i.e all of ep2 comes out :3), or we absolutely need to fix something and can't put it off

[jaunty meteor]

That blew my mind to hear

[thorn trout]

@jaunty meteor I can't believe it either

[prisma ivy]

Mods are cool 😎

[mild ginkgo]

It's not pretty much

Its literally the entire game

[warped saffron]

will we see more gpu utilizationnnnnnnnnnn????????

[mild ginkgo]

Didn't I already explain this?

There is nothing left for the gpu to do

[prisma ivy]

^^^

[mild ginkgo]

The textures are 256

[prisma halo]

Yeah the entire thing is being rewritten

there is quite literally zero shared code between the current game and the SDK version

[mild ginkgo]

If it had 4k textures, there would be something else to do

[jaunty meteor]

Just scoop up some of the graphics and put them in the video card. it's easy!

[prisma ivy]

You're hired.

[hexed roost]

the SSG needs a 4096x4096 UV

[crimson folio]

dusk ep2 wont launch

but duskworld will

[hexed roost]

validate your game files

[urban sparrow]

I am freezing my tits of in Michigan but still following all this

[hexed roost]

you should take the ferry and come visit

[urban sparrow]

Fuck Canadians!

Nah jk

Love yoy

[warped saffron]

Lol yeah well you're right. I'm not sure what calculations could possibly be offloaded to the gpu. It's just strange to see performance related dips when my cpu and gpu are kicking back with thier feet up.

[mild ginkgo]

A lot of issues came from the newest windows revision

[warped saffron]

WORD

[white raptor]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6VCmSTne2k8

oops

[mild ginkgo]

We're gonna do more performance analysis when we get closer to launch, as we reach the final version

[prisma halo]

I have a few hunches for what may be causing perf dips

but nothing concrete

[mild ginkgo]

I'll do what I can to squeeze more performance without modifying too much

Because the reality is that Dawn will be VERY optimized

[prisma halo]

Could probably make it slightly faster by offloading the lighting stuff to another thread

[warped saffron]

I feel you there. I don't envy you guy having to tango with Win10 updates. WCU did a number on DUSK on my machine. Got it fixed tho... And thanks again for that tip about Nvidia scaling.

[mild ginkgo]

And dusk without Dawn is very janky, especially the lighting system

We're actively considering it

But until dawn, I wouldn't expect a HUGE paradigm shift

It's require a big rewrite of a large system

[crimson folio]

David is the asset guy, 500 is the framework guy, and zombie is the whiz

power trio

i got faith, ya'll

[mild ginkgo]

Zombie is literal god

David and I suck

Lmao

[sullen carbon]

Holy Trinity

[warped saffron]

Now that I have Gsync working again, the dips into the ~115 ish range aren't all that noticeable during a firefight anyway. Also we're talking about dips to 115 like that's unplayable. :p It's not like we out here struggling to hit 60.

[crimson folio]

zombie is crazy

[prisma halo]

people give me more credit than I deserve tbh

[mild ginkgo]

Zombie and I tried to optimize yandere sim

[crimson folio]

i don't, bitch

[mild ginkgo]

That was a laugh

[prisma halo]

I'm a relatively average programmer that just happens to have a bit of knowledge in the areas necessary for modding

[mild ginkgo]

That game struggles to hit 60

[crimson folio]

lmfao

[prisma halo]

dude that game struggles to hit 30

[crimson folio]

throwback to the time you guys ported dusk levels to yandere sim

not a joke btw

they actually did that

[warped saffron]

*dabs sweaty forhead with lacy handkerchief

[mild ginkgo]

Throwback to the time yandev yelled at us for optimizing his game

[crimson folio]

hahahaha fuck post that cap

it's so fuckin golden

zombie fuckin obliterated that hack

[prisma halo]

YandereDev seems to have a heavy victim complex

[crimson folio]

made him look like a total ch*ddarhead

[prisma halo]

I tried to offer help and since I was blunt in the process, he thought I was attacking him

[crimson folio]

he looks like a sack of potatoes

[prisma halo]

Like uh, sorry for not sucking your dick dude

also #bnnuy-and-the-jits

[crimson folio]

David is a way better one man production house

[prisma halo]

David's a fuckin' machine, I don't know how he does it

[crimson folio]

because he don't like anime, duh zom

[prisma halo]

you've got me there

[crimson folio]

David has taste and skill

[warped saffron]

^^^ yeyeyeye. I'm only on level 3 of Episode 2 and it's already put a big stupid smile on my face a few times. DUSK is one of those games maaannnnn.... more than a good game. It's a game to get excited about. Those don't come around too often. Not after you get all old and cynical anyway. :p

[thorn trout]

I'm more ashamed that my code needs rewritten to be acceptable for modding than I am angered by it tbh lol

[mild ginkgo]

Lol

In fairness

You built it all before modding was planned

[warped saffron]

Hey don't be. "The whole thing would need to be rewritten." is usually the reason a sane dev gives for why their game will never support mods. xD

[mild ginkgo]

I'm sure if you expected such a big turnout

Attackscript wouldn't exist in its current form

[spring jolt]

i salute you for adding mod support though

[mild ginkgo]

I'm fairly confident it will be a top 3 modding experience ever

The tools, planning, and organization should make it dreamy

[spring jolt]

i mean the game has a great core

and i think mod support can make it stick around for a long time

[jade root]

wouldnt it be great if zombie puts all this effort into into Dawn and all we get it a mod that removes big john and uncensors mama's tits

[spring jolt]

sounds like a worthwhile venture to me

[spare geode]

removes big John?

[spring jolt]

although

who'd wanna remove big john?

[jade root]

lil john

[spring jolt]

granted the arnie impression wasn't fantastic

but still a fun boss

[cerulean sun]

somone mentioned there is a discord for speedrunning dusk

[spare geode]

uhh what's dawn tho?

[jade root]

not to our knowledge

[spring jolt]

the sdk for dusk

[spare geode]

oh

[jade root]

Dawn is the name of the SDK

[prisma halo]

@thorn trout to be fair, it's not like I couldn't make the current codebase moddable

but since it wasn't designed with it in mind at first, I just find it easier this way

[jade root]

Developed by the one and only TheZombieKiller, who you may know from Doom Within Doom, Doom Beam Flashlight, YanSim Optimization patch, and HDoom

[spare geode]

whatd he do 4 Hdoom

[spring jolt]

i wish i could say that i do 😦

[prisma halo]

I'm the lead programmer for HDoom as of techdemo 6 onward

[spring jolt]

oooh

respect

[spare geode]

hehe

[prisma halo]

amusingly, just like Dusk, I rewrote the entire codebase

lmao

[thorn trout]

Hahahahaha

It's your trademark now

[spring jolt]

lol

[prisma halo]

I'll rewrite all your shit™

[thorn trout]

Rewriting entire codebases

[jade root]

the rewriter

coming 2018

[spring jolt]

Re: Writer

[cerulean sun]

when will dusk have toilet paper then can be dipped in toilet or sink to get wet and stick to roof?

[prisma halo]

I like the way you think

[spring jolt]

i assume when the sdk is done

[prisma halo]

I'm all ears for fun ideas for example mods

[spring jolt]

i imagine modders will go bananas for that idea

example mods

hmmmm

[cerulean sun]

i think it should be in the main game as an achevement

[spring jolt]

how about the always relevant big head mod?

[jade root]

yo zombie can make it so BURTAL DUSK ad HDUSK are compatible? much appreicate

[prisma halo]

already suggested :^)

[spring jolt]

fuck

ok ok ok

how about

tiny head mod?

[prisma halo]

🤔

[jaunty meteor]

I don't have any experience with programming, but it's a little bit magic to me how you can uproot an entire game's codebase and redo everything yet the result is identical to the end user

Well, not much experience

[cerulean sun]

if you are going to copy goldeneye style cheats you might as well have them unlock similar fasion

[prisma halo]

There may be slight differences

Mainly in regards to menu layout

[jaunty meteor]

Bunnyhopping makes you go slower...

[spring jolt]

oh i've got an idea

how about a mod that lets you dual wield any weapon?

[prisma halo]

AI might behave SLIGHTLY different as well, but not enough to be noticeable unless you like

[spring jolt]

should be simple enough right?

[prisma halo]

note down every single detail

[cerulean sun]

has anyone ever played necrovision?

[spare geode]

Yeah I did

[prisma halo]

dual wielding should be a doable mod

[spare geode]

It's underrated af

[spring jolt]

i tried it once but didn't get very far

[cerulean sun]

the akimbo system is perfect

[jaunty meteor]

Oh man, that has me sweating a tiny bit I'll have to admit

[spare geode]

Bunnyhop madness

[spring jolt]

hell yeah

[prisma halo]

as for how complex it'd be to make, I dunno

[jade root]

necrovision was awesome until it became all about spells

[cerulean sun]

never seen such an amazing akimbo set up for a game

[spare geode]

I didn't like the second one as much as the first one tho

[cerulean sun]

2nd one has better levels

[jaunty meteor]

I hope there doesn't end up being a Blood/BloodCM situation where people will swear that vanilla Dusk is better because the soldiers have this specific sort of attack pattern which is way better

[spring jolt]

lol

[cerulean sun]

but not as strong of a story not like it was strong to begin with

[spring jolt]

is that a thing?

[prisma halo]

hahahahahaha

[jaunty meteor]

(BloodCM is objectively worse than Blood, I'm not claiming it isn't :p)

[prisma halo]

the changes are more along the lines of timing

currently AI runs at an uncapped rate

[spring jolt]

never played BloodCM

[prisma halo]

the SDK changes it so that AI runs at 50Hz

[spring jolt]

i played BloodGX though

or something along those lines

[cerulean sun]

thats why when i get insane bhop speed scarecrows still get me

[jaunty meteor]

GDX is all you need!

[spring jolt]

gdx yeah

that's the one

[prisma halo]

for comparison, DOOM AI runs at 35Hz

[spring jolt]

huh

interesting

[cerulean sun]

ahh

[prisma halo]

(classic doom, not doom 2k16)

[spring jolt]

not sure what that means but i am intrigued

[cerulean sun]

and zdoom

[prisma halo]

yes, zdoom too

[cerulean sun]

how fast the enemy updates its AI

[prisma halo]

for obvious reasons

[cerulean sun]

or basicly how fast the AI's brain works

[prisma halo]

Wolfenstein 3D runs at 70Hz

[spring jolt]

alright

[spare geode]

Only problem with bloodgdx it doesn't play the soundtrack properly right

[spring jolt]

lol

wolfenstein way ahead of its time?

[jade root]

im just waiting for touhou dusk

[cerulean sun]

no just a much more simple game

[spring jolt]

doesnt it? i think the soundtrack worked fine when i played

[jade root]

GIMME FIRST PERSON BULLET HELL

[prisma halo]

I might be wrong but I think all BUILD games run at 120Hz

[spring jolt]

but then again i never played vanilla blood so you could fool me either way

[cerulean sun]

you can get it from steam or GOG

[jaunty meteor]

And they use all 120hz to make sure those cultists can shoot you half a frame after you walk out of cover

[cerulean sun]

why dont people just remake blood 1 in blood 2 Kappa

[spring jolt]

because blood 2's engine is kinda shite i imagine

[prisma halo]

not just the engine

:^)

[cerulean sun]

thats why i said Kappa

[spring jolt]

still runs like ass from what i've heard

but anyway

dusk akimbo mod when?

[prisma halo]

but yeah BloodCM is very inaccurate to Blood

it's a Duke3D mod that was, as I understand it, mostly done by hand

[crimson folio]

don't say kappa please

[cerulean sun]

offtopic but god damnit i want a new sim racing wheel

[prisma halo]

whilst BloodGDX is created from leaked source code and reverse engineering

[jaunty meteor]

All the monsters were approximate recreations

[spring jolt]

yeah bloodgdx definitely seems more authentic

[jaunty meteor]

And in some cases the dev just got lazy and didn't bother, so you don't get mini calebs :p

[prisma halo]

leaked source code that is only around a year older than the game's first shareware release, might I add

[spring jolt]

i know people complained about the movement in cm

[jaunty meteor]

He just used more hands for those segments

[prisma halo]

at that point, much of the game's code was actually pretty complete

most of the data formats for example are fully implemented in that source leak

[spring jolt]

the dude working on gdx did outstanding work tbh

[prisma halo]

it's impressive, can't deny that

I wish he hadn't picked Java as his language of choice though

[spring jolt]

i mean i know fuck all about coding

[prisma halo]

You can run the game without Java though

IKVM lets you run it on the CLR

[spring jolt]

but i can imagine it's no small feat to pull something like that off without a source code

[prisma halo]

no need for Java on your machine

can even turn the .jar into an .exe for you

[crimson folio]

the gdx guy has source code tho

[prisma halo]

Yeah I literally just said he used leaked code lmao

[crimson folio]

lol

[prisma halo]

but there was a bunch of reverse engineering on top of that of course

since that code is pre-shareware

[sullen carbon]

koopa keepo

[mild ginkgo]

Yeah the blood alpha code isn't too hard to get your hands on

[jaunty meteor]

That and loads of reverse engineering; I have no clue how his workflow went, but I know his big method of determining accuracy was comparing demos between DOS and GDX

[prisma halo]

look at those dates

[mild ginkgo]

I just backed up bloods source to my NAS drive today actually

Gotta preserve in as many places as possible

[prisma halo]

QAV.CPP/QAV.H are the files of most interest to me

[spare geode]

That dude in 96 working on his code at 3 am damn

[spring jolt]

lol

[mild ginkgo]

How about the emails bitching about ken

[prisma halo]

those are amazing

[mild ginkgo]

The best

[prisma halo]

what about the early boxart image

[mild ginkgo]

👌

[crimson folio]

aaah blood

[prisma halo]

this is pretty cool too

[jaunty meteor]

Not the worst mid-90s mockup I've seen

[mild ginkgo]

I can't wait to leak the dusk archive

[jaunty meteor]

https://tcrf.net/images/1/13/Harvester_gameover_early.png

[prisma halo]

there are so many fucking early dusk builds

[mild ginkgo]

Yep

[prisma halo]

it's taking up most of my HDD lol

[mild ginkgo]

We have a million

I'm going g to make a dusk archival hdd

And throw it in a server when the time comes

[crimson folio]

they should put caleb smiling in the background while a screaming on fire cultist is running toward the screen

[prisma halo]

It'll be interesting to do writeups of these in the future

[mild ginkgo]

Yeah lol

[prisma halo]

I still need to recover lost data from these

[mild ginkgo]

We have a lot of work to do for the tcrf page

[prisma halo]

I just started writing some of the code to do that today actually

since it's necessary to recover files in the final game too

like the leatherneck animations

[mild ginkgo]

Pls don't mention those

[prisma halo]

lmao

[mild ginkgo]

Fun fact, that's why you can't be leatherneck in duskworld right now

[prisma halo]

it's not gonna be fun to get those out of Unity's grasp

I know what to do but agfhaghalghadgl

for the sake of my sanity I made my own temporary model format while I work out the animation kinks with the IQM loader

[mild ginkgo]

Oh god here we go again

I remember the two weeks of struggling with iqm bones

[prisma halo]

I believe I know what to do about that now though

[stay tuned]

[mild ginkgo]

Nobody ever responded to that post

[prisma halo]

still nothing

[mild ginkgo]

Thats how you know it's good shit

[cerulean sun]

do start speed running dusk or go back to my main speed game that ive been loosing ranks on 🤔

[wet zealot]

How do i play episode 1?

[mild ginkgo]

Launch episode 2

[warped saffron]

Choose the first ep when starting a new game

[mild ginkgo]

Click episode 1

[cerulean sun]

both episode 1 and 2 are chosen by in game menu on new game

[wet zealot]

Ok

Ry

Ty*

[mild ginkgo]

It's just a temporary app

In the 11th all dusk apps will disappear

And go into the main dusk app

[cerulean sun]

aka duskworld release?

[wet zealot]

11th of when?

[mild ginkgo]

Jan

Duskworld will be available to all owners of dusk, yes

[wet zealot]

Lit, is that its full release?

[mild ginkgo]

And People who don't own dusk, will be left in the cold unfortunately

[warped saffron]

haha I thought you meant like the proverbial "eleventh hour" before release xD

[mild ginkgo]

No, it's early access

[cerulean sun]

was hoping to play the closed beta of duskworld but looking like its not happening for me

[mild ginkgo]

Which will last 2-3 months

You might get a key tonight dude

[cerulean sun]

oh

[mild ginkgo]

There's only 300 people left

You'll get in

[cerulean sun]

good im sick of seeing very one sided score boards

[mild ginkgo]

In the next few days

[cerulean sun]

give people a run for their money

havent played a good quake or ut style game in a long time

COD 1 took over the FPS scene

if i can get high up on the leader boards in COD im sure ill do well in dusk too might take a few games to get the UT style back in me

[spare geode]

new UT is good but by the time it leaves alpha we'll be dead

[cerulean sun]

i dont like the newUT games

[spare geode]

It's still very fun

[cerulean sun]

99 is best ut

didnt like the 2k series

[spare geode]

new one is pretty much the best way to do a new UT game

[cerulean sun]

not a fan of walljumping

[spare geode]

Performance kinda shitty for me tho sometimes

[cerulean sun]

always found it glitchy

[sullen carbon]

Zombie what happened to your amazing pfp?!

[spare geode]

Shock rifle is one of my favorite guns in games

[sullen carbon]

😭

[cerulean sun]

i played snipers only a fair amount in UT99 was in a clan when i was like 11

[spare geode]

I'm playing unreal gold atm

It's good but not as good as doom and quake

Or even Duke

It's basically enter a spot get attacked by those green guys 1 on 1 repeat

Maybe it picks up later

I'm at the temple

[prisma halo]

@sullen carbon daru returns

[sullen carbon]

:(

[thorn trout]

Unreal gold does pick up yeah but the focus is definitely on duels.

My favorite thing about unreal is the atmosphere

[prisma ivy]

Same

[thin sphinx]

you going to repurpose the other app id's for the demo?

[thorn trout]

Probably not
