inb4 sdk comes out with coop and we're told "no new campaign make it yourself"
atomic egret
uh yeah that's exactly what's going to happen

Dave is busy with Maximum Action and other projects
An SDK is beyond better compared to having Dave make more and get burned out by it
summer jacinth
Looking forward to that SDK when it gets released

Speaking of the SDK
Gonna confirm here right now that HLBSP will also be supported
||It turns out the format is literally exactly the same as Quake 1 BSP, just with RGB lightmaps, so it was super easy to support||
short basalt
crimson folio
Thanks zombie very cool 
prisma halo
So to recap
Supported BSP formats:
29 (Quake 1)
30 (Half-Life)
46 (Quake 3)
crimson folio
What about Quake 2
atomic egret
fuck quake 2
simple pilot
summer jacinth
I still need to finish Dusk
Out of any indie shooter I've played so far that's tried to be retro, Dusk has the best gameplay.
And the campaign has some awesome memorable moments, like the Escher Labs and the ruins where you're introduced to those invisible enemies.
lean cove
I think Escher Labs is where the gloves really come off with the crazy

Nobody maps for Quake 2 😏

we'll need a timer to count how long before we get an E1M1 map
prisma halo
I'm pretty sure Manniacc already made one in advance
dim plank
I'd love to see E1M1 remagined rather than remade.
Same basic layout, just the DUSK aesthetic.
summer jacinth
Yeah, E1M1 has been remade so many times in games already. It would be more interesting to see it redone in a way that suits the visuals and gameplay of Dusk.
dim plank
episode 2 styled, episode 2 gameplay
crimson folio
isn't the gameplay in all episodes about the same
prisma halo
I wanna see some recreations of Blood maps
opal plover
For the record I never made E1M1 in advance, it was another lad
minor osprey
So will we be able to play Quake maps on Dusk when the SDK comes out or do I get it wrong?

You'll be able to load Quake, Quake 3 and Half-Life maps
Whether they function correctly is another matter entirely

Hey, one thing I wanted to ask to the devs or the people in the know about the inner works of the game
Is it normal that on the lowest skill the cowgirl destroy your hp?
All the other enemies deal 1 hp but cowgirls just blast you for what it feels 15 to 20 points
Is this intended?
Well, explosions in general do a ton of dmg
crimson folio
Bro if you're getting hit by the cowgirl projectiles you're playing wrong
chilly holly
I'm not, it's my GF. It's the first time she plays a game on a PC

Also how long it'll take for a megawad tier full 3 episode replacement to be made in dusk, probably a few months at least seeing 3d is much less trivial then 2.5d mapping

also the movement mid air is compareable to the movement in water - the gravity

movement in dusks water is shit
i end up spinning upside down and then the mouse rotation suddenly flips too

movement in duskes water moves you in the direction youre facing with w, and you use mouse look like normal

Oh man I love that
I remember when classic games would just outright show you a collectable at the other end of a grate or something but it takes ages and 3 or 4 new abilities before you're able to come back and get it.
Unless you super cheese it and figure out how to get to it by spending an hour glitching up a slope and walking around a tiny ledge

I gues
It just annoyed me in the first level of IF that you can see a bunch of pickups and a ledge to get there but there's nowhere in the level that seems to let you get there

the switch port is after the pc ver is fully "done"
smoky sigil
Yeah the bootup is uhh
really bad
I saw a Steam review about the music being stored in a weird place, so that might be it?
mild ginkgo
what?
graceful wing
the game start up?
that depends on whatever type of drive the game is on mostly
a decent ssd should load it up in 10 secs or so. probably less than that
tl:dr mechanical drives aren't really all that good for gaming in the current day
simple pilot
SSD for OS and HDD for storage is just fine
simple pilot
depend on the game rather
mild ginkgo
its an unwinnable battle as is
graceful wing
you store them on your HDD and move them over when you play them. ez
simple pilot
if the game preloads stuff then HDD is good enough
mild ginkgo
either we make the load time faster and people complain its too fast
or we make it slow and they complain its too slow
¯_(ツ)_/¯

yeh there's no right answer here

remove the loading time then

I mind the windows startup sound on DUSK startup more than the long loading time tbh 😅
mild ginkgo
we had more people complain about the game loading too fast unfortunately
i agree with you

It loads in 10 seconds on my gamemeaing pc and in 3 minutes on my laptop

why the fuck would anyone complain about it being too 'fast'
thats such a dumb complaint

Hey yes
formal turret
thats like going to a restaurant and complaining that the food you ordered was done too quickly
slow harness
Rename yourself to yesburger
formal turret
or leaving for work early and complaining you got there early
thats such a dumb complaint and screw those people
the best thing about 90s games is how you can load them up in seconds and just be in the game and playing
i cant do that in dusk because it takes ages
final estuary
i mean it is unity
formal turret
anyone who actually wants to sit around waiting for the game to load probably likes watching paint dry too
there's other unity games that load quickly
final estuary
besides dusk's loading isn't even that long
cloud quiver
it takes like 6 seconds for me
final estuary
it's like less than a minute
final estuary
dusk doesn't load anything in the first half of the loading screen
it only does it in the loading tunes section
formal turret
if it's possible to make it faster and they're only not doing so because people like watching it then thats dumb
yeah that part takes ages
final estuary
if dusk's loading takes more than 10 seconds to load then idk what to tell you
mild ginkgo
they werent actually complaining it was too fast, they were complaining about the effect it being to fast caused
formal turret
what effect was that
graceful wing
we get a lot of people running the game on VERY low end systems
formal turret
i tried to run it on my laptop while on holiday and it took up to FIVE minutes to load the game
lean cove
The Dusk OST cannot be compressed
formal turret
five entire minutes
crimson folio
on my laptop it takes 3 minutes
final estuary
yeah cause dusk isn't like doom or quake
lean cove
you can't reduce perfection
formal turret
there are bigger games that load faster
crimson folio
It uses unity
final estuary
it's on unity so it loads slower
graceful wing
dusk is a modern game using modern technologies running on a modern engine
crimson folio
^^^^
final estuary
while still being oldschool
mild ginkgo
when we allowed the game to load too fast, clicking around or trying to skip the loading screen (as impatient people do) , would cause the game window to turn white in the "program not responding" way while it loaded, because well, it couldnt respond while loading
the game would not crash, but people thought it was crashing
formal turret
dont most games do that while loading anyway?
formal turret
if you click a game while its loading it'll do the not responding thing
mild ginkgo
so we got rid of it
formal turret
maybe they shouldnt click around then
mild ginkgo
i agree
crimson folio
i mean but alot of PC games do that
formal turret
you couldnt just put a warnign message saying that'd happen?
mild ginkgo
the problem stems from the fact that we dont make it an obvious loading screen
people thought it was just a fancy intro
so they could skip it
crimson folio
wait so you are telling me the screen that says loading
mild ginkgo
its something that wont be an issue when the sdk comes out
crimson folio
people thought that it was an intro
mild ginkgo
no, because we're going to change the way it works fundamentally
formal turret
oh
mild ginkgo
itll load WAY faster
formal turret
great
mild ginkgo
faster than when it loaded fast
crimson folio
IT SAYS LOADING THATS THE MOST OBVIOUS SIGN THAT IT IS A LOADING SCREEN
mild ginkgo
nah your concerns are legitimate
formal turret
will it still be using this dosbox load screen tho
mild ginkgo
yes but itll be skippable
formal turret
good
mild ginkgo
however if you skip it, its still going to need to load
formal turret
i had an idea for a mod where the menu background would be a demo
like how quake and doom do it
mild ginkgo
yeah i love that in quake
formal turret
would sell the authenticity even more imo
mild ginkgo
i agree
there were initially some plans for a demo system , but they were scrapped
they might make a return with the sdk, who knows

I can't believe I just read that some people thought a loading screen was anything other than a loading screen. Even when it says it's a loading screen. Wth

heady furnace
yeah but to them it probably wasn't actually crashing. Right?? lol
formal turret
to be fair
first time i played it did load for long enough for me to get concerned
crimson folio
LOL its a meta game when it says program not working its part of the game
heady furnace
I tend to let games do their thing, especially the first time I boot up a game
formal turret
yeah i noticed

when your computer gets a virus and windows defender tries to block it and quarantine it but then you remember its part of the game

it loads long enough to hear a windows boot sound at the last second

btw any news on the next comic? I know it's being worked on right now
heady furnace
i'd rather it came with the SDK
crimson folio
or at least thats what I heard

there aren't many shooters on the switch
let alone retro first person shooters
so it will stand out

I'm pretty sure they've done a bunch of research which pretty much says S M A S H

Will dusk get a physical version for any system?
even if it is only a collectors edition thing

Any idea when the wendego dusk deskpad is gonna be in stock? (asking for a friend)

Who misses when the assault rifle had a random fire rate?

I didn't really use the assault rifle much before it was changed so I can't really say, but if it's a controversial enough change I'm sure there'll be a mod to change it back when the sdk comes out
crimson folio
@worthy niche not seeing any info on it. i would tell your friend to hold out for an Amid Evil deskpad anyway cause those will be a lot prettier

@lean cove i absolutely love dusk but you cant deny how clean this looks

i like that they hid the soap as well to make it like a secret weapon on every map
especially the boss maps, the soap is usually hid in some tiny little trap door in a random wall
crimson folio
i need to do another playthrough w/ a focus on finding all soap and secret levels
Bone Balls sound like water showering on greasy hair.
what we really need is a Horror plushy
I agree.
vale oar
Yep
cobalt zodiac
does it work in dusk world 🤔
woven elm
Do you need to spin or swing?
vale oar
Swing
cobalt zodiac
ironicly, the melee weapons are the only ones without a spin attack
vale oar
nah SSG and Crossbow also don't do any damage when spinned
crystal vessel
cobalt zodiac
really? hmmm
i never ended up spinning my SSG to attack because anything it doesnt one hit really shouldnt be meleed
imagine low teching a level with cow girls on intruder shudder
smoky sigil
There was a missed opportunity to ||let the player bring the soap to Nyarlothep and gib him with it||
vale oar
Plot twist: ||Nyarlathothep turns into Nyarlathosoap after that||
woven elm
you can spin the sickles, but I presume you mean they don't damage on spin?
vale oar
They don't
final estuary
the super shotgun, sickles, sword and crossbow don't damage on spin
woven elm
I'm gonna have a play in endless real quick...
latent bone
When I originally played I actually thought that you could've gotten a secret ending by bringing soap to the fight
But I couldn't find the soap
delicate sail
Also thought there might be some sort of secret triggered by the soap and that there was a hidden way to bring with you. Flew around the level to find an entrance to the void. Only thing I managed to do was ||flying through the Nyarla trigger and out of bounds in the stairway after Jakob by using nbff a couple times and shooting the xbow with my back to the staircase||
The speech ran anyways and I was spawned right before him when it was done. Was cool to see what's happening oob before tho
woven elm
ah right, so you have to time the swing
nicely challenging in cero and above
need moar endless maps :)
Also, do Black Plillips' melee at all? 🤔
crimson folio
I think so
woven elm
Any Linux users have the issue where switching between Dusk | Duskworld from the main menu doesn't work?
- in that it just closes the game
crimson folio
I think I've heard about that before
woven elm
Also, is there no option to flip the mousewheel in single player?
crimson folio
uh change in the config file?
woven elm
Do you know the location of it in linux? ;s
/usr/share/ ?
oh never mind
I'll just rebind it
lol easy solution
interestingly enough, those bindings aren't available in DW
crimson folio
We have to rise up and demand the sdk
woven elm
Is the loading tunes thing just for show?
DW doesn't have that for whatever reason
despite having (at least some of) the tracks
is it a case of dusk having more music files?
crimson folio
I wonder what else you can change in the config file.
woven elm
Stuff like this?
/Dusk/config/dusk.ini
Those are over-arching configs
there will be other config files per-user
Well, I presume as such
oh never mind
that doesn't seem to be the case
on Windows, there's C:\Users\<USER>\AppData\LocalLow\David Szymanski\Dusk\
but that just has analytics stuff
crimson folio
Meant something like weapon damage, like Half life.
jagged ferry
uhhh i can check
woven elm
ohhh

if there is something like that i can't find it
you'll probably be able to do something similar with dawn though

is there any type of noclip cheat that can be activated?
royal herald

yeah i know but i meant actual noclip
crimson folio
Dusk with Half-Life sounds when?

No proper noclip atm, as far as I'm aware. I've heard it'll be a thing once the SDK drops
crimson folio
I can’t wait to go at the speed of light killing everything in one hit with sickles.

That's not normal dusk?
crimson folio
It should be.

Who knew fighting the guardian without shit would be hard

get good at HUPPING and soap him
or make good use of the morter for most of the fight, and HUP away when you have to finish him off with hit scan/the riveter
when he turns corners, theres a moment where he wont shoot you. thats a good time to hit scan him
wait. i forget if there's a riveter on E2M10. know there's a SSG. meat shot him when he be turning the courner
grand zodiac
Definitely riveter

is it okay if i mention where it's from?
because memes are different from physical objects

vale oar
i'd REALLY like to post a description picture, but that is too much of rule 1
so
meme theft is a crime committed by Danyyl, who's going to jail now
short basalt
i define meme theft as "reposting the meme without proper credit to the original author of the meme and/or outright appropriation of the credit for creating that meme"
makes sense, doesn't it?
and if new_blood.txt is not the author of that meme, doesn't that mean that they commit meme theft too?
there is no credit to anyone else involved, so 2 hypotheses arise:
a) the new_blood.txt is the author of the meme and if that is true i have credited them earlier in that discussion
b) the new_blood.txt is not the author of the meme, which would mean they have stolen the meme from unknown sources, which by extension makes me an accomplice, because i have credited them as the author

"meme theft" is an absurd concept because the concept of memes relies on people sharing memes regardless of credit
if you're doing memes to get credit for making a meme you're memeing wrong
short basalt
what annoys me the most, is that there's literally no definition of meme theft

If it's possible to steal a meme then is it possible to hold a meme ransom
