Press F to release Episode 3
#dusk-duskworld-dungeonsofdusk
opaque spindle
at some point in the future the game will be released and it will be revealed that Episode 3 is just Subnautica
You all think its a joke
but just you wait
vale oar
goddmit Reb we've seen E3M3 of course it IS Subnautica
opaque spindle
Its subnautica but every fish is Intoxigator
vale oar
very very soon
opal plover
Anyway I might or might not know the dev's goal of a release date and if they can meet it it'll be soon, sure as hell won't be telling it to anybody though
opaque spindle
So soon that you could say it'll come out at some point within the next century or so
somewhere in that timeframe
vale oar
oh okay
opal plover
Might or might not come out within the next aeon
vale oar
soon indeed
crisp lion
I'd say E3M10 could end up being finished in the week or so (guessing at the current rate of progress)
Then EP3 would have give or take about 2-4 weeks of testing with the QA team, David adds Achievements, then QA goes over that, then David finishes up EP1 and EP2 , then yet another pass on EP1 and maybe EP2, then QA goes over that, then the achievements again, then QA does even more QA.
case in point QA will take for eternity so DUSK is cancelled

It's first phase that is

that is if you can survive the first phase
sly path
Lains main attack is trying to sorround you with his baggy jeans.

His Baggy Jeans are a portal to weeb dimension
and he can shoot lasers from his Dusk shirt
afterwards he pulls out the Ban hammer he hid in his deep pockets

what's the E3MS2 that was added in the latest patch?
opal plover
It was a meme
crisp lion
It's a "delet" this for the people going through the files
mild ginkgo
WAS it though?
glacial charm
i guess it was a joke episode 3 "leak"
crisp lion
I think It's supposed to be David's kid, the only facts are that it's a kid, it's a maniac kid, and it's a maniac kid with a gun.
opal plover
Big kid with a gun

visuals plz? if this file actually looks like anything?
crisp lion
opal plover
Like inside of unity files and such
And in the files the maps are called "level32" and stuff like that

i'll be surprised if that gets added in the goodies folder as a joke

crisp lion
Soon 
opal plover
Trust me
sly path
It's probably soon enough that Germany won't ban DUSK for it.
jaunty meteor
Dusk doesn't really need a full-blown water level
opal plover
I mean I'm sure there'll be plenty of custom water levels
They could mimic descent a bit with the 6dof
Also underwater dw sounds fairly fun

I'd laugh if there is a special german version for dusk

clever wasp
sadly that wasn't just the German version
I'm French and I remember I had the robots too
delicate violet
Probotector was cool tho
clever wasp
it was called Probotector
cerulean blade
Tf2 had all the mercs replaced with robots as well

Cool thing about Mexico is that we tended to not censor jackshit
Bad thing about Mexico is that cool FPs went under the radar

not even models, just a skin would be enough

Dusk ending

Dusk ending is a cliffhanger like hl2 ep2
Before you kill the final boss it cuts to black and says "To be continued"
opal plover
Now that I think about it you people should put a warning when you try to turn bloom on: "warning bloom will clash with the game's aesthetics" or something
For the people who turn it on out of instinct before seeing what the game looks like without it
opal plover
go to the outside area in E2M3 and turn it on
Anyway at least it's not chromatic abberation either
slate edge
I remember when bloom was considered graphics porn
mild ginkgo
i like the bloom in dusk
clever wasp
it doesn't look as bad as I pictured, but it doesn't look super good either
opal plover
flashlight looks like ass wiyh bloom
clever wasp
like, it's not out of place, but...
opal plover
You mean even in E2M3?
mild ginkgo
clever wasp
oh yeah flashlight is fucked with bloom
graceful wing
E3ms2 has great bloom
opal plover
NO
slate edge
I ripped the sound files for E3MS2, its pretty spooky
opal plover
E2M3'S SKYBOX WITH BLOOM IS THE WORST THING SINCE A RULE 1 PERSON!
clever wasp
oh wait I tried bloom with the Vivid color palette (the one I normally use)
it's dicks
mild ginkgo
instead of harsh digital chill
opal plover
SOFT!?!
clever wasp
it is soft, as long as you consider sandpaper soft
opal plover

graceful wing
You know what else is soft? The pillow I'll fall asleep on after playing dusk for about 2 minutes
slate edge

..and this man @mild ginkgo was complaining about my screenshots being blown out
mild ginkgo
opal plover
UNPIN THIS
mild ginkgo
we like to feature dusk at its finest
vale oar
DELET THIS
opal plover
Look at the aesthetic narative Scott is pushing for your game @thorn trout
sly path
Alright, now I want motion blur in DUSK.
opal plover
And chromatic abberation
sly path
I actually unironically love chromatic aberration as an effect.
mild ginkgo
opal plover
Only if it's in the context of having that 80's feel
mild ginkgo
and i unironically like the soft painterly quality of dusk bloom
i dont play with it most of the time
sly path
I really like how it emulates the colour fringing actual camera lenses have, or even the lenses of your eye or glasses.
mild ginkgo
but i do love it
opal plover
I thought you were being ironic 500
sly path
As someone who wears glasses IRL it just seems fitting to keep that impreciseness in the peripherals for some reason.
mild ginkgo
i rarely have it enabled
sly path
I'll admit DUSK doesn't look bad without bloom, things can be a bit blown out though.
mild ginkgo
but it really improves some of the mood in a bunch of the levels
sly path
At least it transfers well to the SRGB colour space I guess.
mild ginkgo
erebus, e2mS, etc
opal plover
Okay, 500 do you genuenly think that screen looked soft?
slate edge
I just keep the image as crisp and clean as possible, im a darkplaces > quakespasm person, dont hate me pls
opal plover
Also yeah in some particular levels bloom looks very good
sly path
You don't get severe hot spots or anything, the bright areas still look pretty neat even if they have red undertones.
opal plover
In E3M2 it looks pretty nice
opal plover
sly path
I don't really know that much about Episode 3 in all honesty.
But yeah um all the things I make will have chromatic aberration permanently on,
graceful wing
Oof 500
crisp lion
Aesthetic
opal plover
Even in the penguin game, Hatsu?
sly path
Only a lil bit though, not VHS chromatic aberration.
opal plover
Why not have it be an option?
sly path
And yeah, even in the penguin game, it'd just be a lil bit of camera lens distortion.
slate edge
I think bloom needs to have a controller in the maps themselves to control it so David can have the intended effect, dialing it down in areas where its obstructive.
sly path
I think it might just be that the bloom is set to blow out anything below like .7 percent or something.
opal plover
If it didn't fuck up the flashlight that is
sly path
That's probably just an issue of the colour space.
mild ginkgo
i think you mean improve the flashlight
opal plover
How so?
sly path
Remember, in SRGB there's only 256 shades of red, green and blue.
(SRGB being one of the standard colour spaces)
When those colours are mixed you get like a metric shit ton of colours but there's only ever 256 shades of the primaries at any given time.
Still better than VGA video cards though where you could only have like 256 colours period.
slate edge
Make bloom saturation/vibrancy, etc a thing David can control in the level so each area has different bloom settings, like coloured lighting, this tells the game how to handle bloom and enables for a more cohesive use of it whilst still enabling the user to toggle it. Allow multiple controllers in one level.
sly path
I think Unity already has something for that.
slate edge
big john tho
so charming Dave didnt even record new lines, just took his lines from rott 2013 lol
mild ginkgo
i mean that was the point
slate edge
oof
opal plover
What has a complete loss of charm?
mild ginkgo
going super tryhard with dynamic bloom settings so you can never be injured by a sharp edge
slate edge
π’
mild ginkgo
thats what, to me, gives dusk its charm and texture, the rough edges
sly path
What're your favourite post process effects that no one else likes Scott?
That's your name right 500?
mild ginkgo
i mean its gotta be bloom
balmy sluice
I wear gloves when I play dusk so I don't cut myself
mild ginkgo
yeah it is
mild ginkgo
people hate bloom
sly path
Is Chromatic Abberation, per object motionblur, bokeh depth of field and bloom.
slate edge
Bloom can be good imo, just needs to be done smooth as butter.
sly path
I like the four horsemen of the apocalypse.
opal plover
I like having spikes come out of the monitor to poke my eyes out
slate edge
I still love the Doom 3 aesthetic
sly path
Emulating camera lenses is good I swear guys
Things like lens dirt and lens flare only really make sense when there's a reason for it though.
In Metro it makes sense, when you have your gasmask on.
opal plover
lens flare in E2M6 is good though
sly path
When you don't lens dirt shouldn't be a thing.
mild chasm
What are you talking about, we need to blow out your eyes with bloom and lens flares
and then also coat them in a thick layer of mud
JUST LIKE REALITY
opal plover
^
mild ginkgo
yeah youre right, living in this fantasy world where we can stare straight at the sun with no loss of detail or blurring is bullshit
flat juniper
to me it emulates something being really fucking painful to look at in terms of brightness
not dirt
mild chasm
I can understand it when you're looking directly in the sun
but if I'm in a forest my eyes shouldn't be seared out
If I'm inside a building it shouldn't be really blurry and crap unless, again, I'm looking directly into a light source
and even then it'd have to be a bright one rather than a dim one
mild chasm
Not really
flat juniper
pc game cameras can't really adjust for the pixel-width focus our retinas have
mild chasm
So don't do the effect
flat juniper
how about no
mild chasm
I'm more willing to suspend my disbelief that my character can somehow look into the sun without eye damage
flat juniper
because it still makes light look bright
instead of just a lightly colored object
and helps give a "point of light"
err
a source
slate edge
guys, i wanna kill shit, i dont care how eyes work
mild chasm
You could also do what half life 2 or garry's mod did I believe and have like a lens flare sprite or something affixed to the light that way when you look at it you still see a flare but it's not as overexaggerated as an actual post processing effect
slate edge
if it obstructs the gameplay in an aggressive manner, its unnecessary.
mild chasm
No
mild chasm
Not the part I'm referring to
I'm talking about when you look at a light and can literally see the image on the light itself
flat juniper
that actually is exactly the part you are referring to, unless you mean the little point sprites they use for buttons
mild chasm
It's hard to explain what I'm referring to because there's likely a bunch of effects going on at the same time for any one given light source
mild chasm
I believe so
flat juniper
they are used very little in HL2
like I said, usually for buttons
what you're probably referring to is how the HDR works
mild chasm
No I know what I'm referring to and it's not the HDR portion of it
flat juniper
this is literally just a light with HDR
but it looks like an image
if I get close, it disappears
the only other thing I can think of is the literal light shaft models

ALSO I really like that Ep 2 now has the Ambient track for Neobabel on its map select screen. Because I actually adore Dusk's ambient tracks and think @urban sparrow dosen't get enough love for em
thorn trout
Andrew DOESN'T get enough love for them, it's true. They may not be as flashy as some of the action tracks but they're a big part of setting the tone for levels and Dusk as a whole
crisp lion
We need a Hulshult Ambient Collection
urban sparrow
The soundtrack with all ambients would probably require a separate release from what I have planned...BUT
I have def left in the ambients I felt that correctly sit with the master. A full version of bagel is defo there
Quite a few others as well
It's pretty well rounded and paced
thorn trout
bagel is the best track
mild chasm
I'm pretty glad that us earlier birds are gonna be getting the soundtrack
I don't typically care much about game soundtracks but Andrew's work is way too good to pass up listening to

I think I was a bit too late to get in on that deal, so I just hope I can purchase it all.

Quite confident you'll be able to

I can't believe it took me so long to find out about Dusk. I must live under a damn rock.

Eh it's fine and whoa did the font size change in the latest discord update or...?

Well, I just updated it, but I don't see a difference
But in the options there's a slider that lets you turn the font scale up or down

Yeah big props to all you folk who worked on it, for real lol
opal plover
The action or ambient tracks?
daring solstice
all of them are mediocre
except old religion ambient which is great
imo ofc
it's just that I don't enjoy slow metal
opal plover
Listen to this though
daring solstice
I don't like it
it's too slow, doesn't give me any adrenaline
what I'd rather have in dusk would be Painkiller soundtrack
opal plover
Even like erebus or the endless theme 1 are too slow for you?
acoustic oriole
besides, the music feels a lot faster and "right" when you hear it while actually playing
daring solstice
I'll listen to them carefully when I get on my pc
I always have music quite low in dusk so I can hear enemies better
but I doubt I'll enjoy those tracks
acoustic oriole
to each his own, I suppose, but high volume music is actually a good thing for a game like DUSK
not excessively high, mind you
opal plover
You don't want to damage your hearing
acoustic oriole
...or drown out the game
daring solstice
check out Oriental Castle theme from painkiller, this is what I really like
or docks theme
opal plover
I can think of many dusk tracks that are faster than both
Like the experiments theme
acoustic oriole
it's not just their speed, it's their vibe
these tracks have a less dark mood than DUSK's tracks
opal plover
^
daring solstice
exactly
opal plover
I see
acoustic oriole
dark mood is perfect for DUSK's theme though
opal plover
Yeah I agree
Although a painkiller/serious sam style track here and there might have worked
acoustic oriole
I'm not much of a Painkiller fan, but I'm sure those tracks fit the game's own tone
daring solstice
I'd say that Dusk ost is more depressing and induces feel of impending doom
while painkiller's ost has more kick to it
it makes you feel more powerfull
powerful*
acoustic oriole
That may be accurate, but then again, maybe DUSK's tone is less about making you a Doomguy styled badass that wrecks enemies and more about the horrors you go through on your journey
as such, this type of music is fitting
all a matter of context
daring solstice
sounds about right
but you can't stop me from listening to painkiller while playing dusk
ha ha
checkmate
acoustic oriole
LOL by all means
opal plover
Yeah we've got like totally opposed opinions Recluse, if anything that feeling of impending doom makes me feel more powerful, hell that's why this is my favorite track so far
acoustic oriole
all this music talk really tempted me to replay Eps 1 and 2, but I don't wanna get burned out on them before the game is complete
prisma halo
@opal plover That song remains my favorite in the entire game so far
opal plover
I see great minds think alike
crisp lion
I prefer E1M7, E2M2, E2M4, and E3M2 but whatever floats your boats boys.
prisma halo
wait until you hear the full track
crisp lion
I ain't holding my breath.

Funny 1
Also just dug through the files, and listened to it, it's still not a big deal.
opal plover
I am terribly tempted to ask you to dm it to me, but I think I want to hear it in action first.
crisp lion
Yeah, better off waiting another trillion years till release.
crisp lion
It's clear that a October release is very likely, but knowing Scott, and Dave it's likely we won't get nuthin till November or December.

I hope I live to see those words.
I mean, I just did.
So what would you guys say are the best FPS games?
celest gorge
Yeah, naturally Q3's up in the top tier.
clever wasp
honestly I'd also write in Goldeneye 64, even if it wasn't a PC title, it's easily one of the most played FPS of all time
celest gorge
I've played Doom 2, Serious Sam, and the first three Quakes, but I'm having a hard time deciding whether any of them are better than Dusk.
Except for Chex Quest of course. That one's a born winner.
clever wasp
I have a hard time comparing Dusk to Quake tbh
sure they look, and even sort of feel similar, but Dusk has had literally two decades of hardware and software development behind it
crimson folio
Flat Earth confirmed xD
clever wasp
to me it feels like pitting a 15th century human against a 21st century one
celest gorge
Yeah, you really can't compare it to the original Quake in anything except art style.
celest gorge
Man, I'm having a really hard time not arguing to the death about the physical superiority of 15th century humans.
clever wasp
yo, they prolly tanked shit that would make our millenials shit their pants
figuratively and literally
celest gorge
Regarding the FPS games, though, the closest thing I can compare Dusk to is a cross between Serious Sam and Quake 3.

What about E4MS3
delicate violet
Is that the hell's machine?
delicate violet
Escher was fucking god tier
clever wasp
there is a trick shot, that I haven't nailed yet, that literally skips half the level
jolly mirage
also yes I have seen his art
clever wasp
you can use the crossbow to shoot one of the switches through the wall in front of the starting point

anyway my favorite part was burning Dave's Robot Girlfriend
shell arch
hey guys - quick question - is there any way i can bind backflips to mouse wheel while having the option turned off in the settings?
clever wasp
I don't think you can even bind flips at all
shell arch
like - i have it turned off in the settings because... well - looks like i'm too much of a scrub to handle it, but i would still like to do them every now and then
and since i'm not using the mouse wheel anyway i thought i might bind it somehow or - i dunno - try writing some sort of macro or a script or whatever in some sort of config file
clever wasp
eventually it might be modded in, but as of now I think it's not possible
jade root
yeah backflips isnt a command nor would i count on it
shell arch
i thought about something more like...
jade root
it was meant as a neat little ability you can do if you have the skill to do it
clever wasp
(or the mouse sensitivity)
jade root
that too
shell arch
whenever i hold a key down the game would unlock flips and keep moving the camera up
and when i release it it would toggle it off
shell arch
yeah something like that
shell arch
i mean - it's all in dusk.ini
i just have to figure out how to combine it into one keystroke or whatever
jade root
clever wasp
prolly going to have to wait till SDK release though

rare musk

if you actually stand and fight him he'll fuck you up

quick question - why is soap so powerful in dusk?
like - i'm assuming it's an inside joke or something, but...
i just... don't know what the hell is going on 
prisma halo
are you implying soap isn't powerful in real life?
shell arch
there's so many inappropriate we could make here
molten peak
idea
Soap mode: Player starts each level holding the soap and must gib all enemies in each level with the soap before they can proceed to the next mission. If the player drops/throws the soap without gibbing an enemy that results in instant death.
crisp lion
duskspacito come to brazil
shell arch
yeah, but
don't you have to throw soap to gib someone?
that basically means you have to drop it
thorn trout
@shell arch it was just a spur of the moment random decision tbh
shell arch
well, it was a good one 
jade root
thats the risk of using soap
molten peak
Yeah, the game will allow you to pick up the soap again as long as it gibbed an enemy last
jade root
you will have to drop it
molten peak
^
crisp lion
make it happen Scotty
shell arch
or better yet - if a player drops the soap
make him lose health every time he looks down (cus you know - he's bending over and all that)
you would have to crouch and gently pick it up to avoid that
viral gate
A soap gamemode sounds fun, like that skullmode in Halo
But you know you don't run at a snail's pace
sly path
Can't wait for someone to mod in Leon.
viral gate
Yeah it's gonna be fun seeing what people are gonna do with Dawn
One rule to weapon mods should be enforced, must be flippable
sly path
Like mod in David and have his primary attack be throwing copies of Sumo Revise 2.
viral gate
A TC of Chasm with more interesting levels
sly path
AE but in DUSK.
viral gate
I was gonna say that...
Be good to play Return of the Triad maps ported to Dusk with AE weapons
Enforcers can just be Big Johns
Epic crossover.
sly path
A DUSK mod where you play as Dave trying to play in a symphony orchestra in a middleschool.
Imagine that.
molten peak
Crack-Life but Dusk
crisp lion
that's the plan
already have a WIP crack dusk playlist
the creepycloseby sound effect is replaced with a rickroll
aka that sound effect to the yellow key room in E2M2
molten peak
Jerma's rat song replaces the rat sfx
viral gate
Oh there's plenty.
mild chasm
Yeah there's a lot
You can just click the pin button to see the vast majority of them

opal plover
Eh got scared, deleted it
Anyway we're getting real close that means
What about the post ending stuff though?
crisp lion
define posting ending stuff?
mild chasm
I think he meant stuff after the ending of the game
crisp lion
Well if DUSK sells well post-release then David says there'll be more content.
crisp lion
ah yes the damned episode 4
opal plover
Things that you unlock after the ending
mild ginkgo
i can tell you that we're definitely getting much closer
we started going back for really old bugs etc today
mild chasm
Translation: We're trying to find every excuse to hold back the game further from you registered losers
mild ginkgo
correct
mild chasm
See I can speak dev
crisp lion
quit playing with our balls
mild chasm
sort of
crisp lion
they're turnin blue!
mild ginkgo
nah, just hammering down on the little touches that will bring it from early access, to finished
opal plover
Are you gonna try to fix the sword still being ever so slightly janky?
crisp lion
u gonna fix that bug where you can get stuck in that one area in E2M4?
opal plover
Also please add more secrets in E1M6 and make the big fight longer, mine control deserves better!
mild ginkgo
but i can tell you that is factually like the least wanted to be fixed bug
opal plover
And E2MS?
mild ginkgo
opal plover
I mean the sword lock is MUCH MUCH better since the big sword overhaul
mild ginkgo
it is the only bug we have ever done that has achieved the dreaded label
theres a lot of little ones we're getting through however
youll no longer be weapon locked if you carry an object to the end of the level
things like that
crisp lion
Is Dave still critiquing the hell out of E3M10?
mild ginkgo
e3m10 is not really close to done
crisp lion
you've said that a billion times
mild ginkgo
yeah and it just started making real progress like yesterday
crisp lion
I don't trust like that
mild ginkgo
90% of the level currently is a giant grey box
opal plover
Dreaded as in you don't care about it?
opal plover
Oh
mild ginkgo
we'll get there though
opal plover
If I were you I wouldn't worry that much about it, it's barely broken at this point
mild ginkgo
in other update news we have also entered serious QA on ep3 finally
opal plover
Nice
mild ginkgo
yeah that bug is low on our list
theres a lot more functional stuff that we are prioritizing
youll no longer get to cheat and get two shotguns if you have ssg and pick up one 1887
crisp lion
Please don't fix the 'bug' where you can switch back to the sickles, single shotgun, and single pistol using their hotkeys
