Yeah.
amber sparrow
I just started going though it too. We could compare results, I guess?
crimson folio
Sure!
mild ginkgo
It's possible we take a second pass at the translations soon, as we ready ourselves for a console release
delicate sail
You can hmu again when you do
ocean swan
I'm off then, have a nice day everyone!
crimson folio
Bye bye
amber sparrow
I kept it at DUSKMARE for now, lol. But it might be better
I changed it to "DUSKMARE MODE" just to give it some context. I don't think anyone would fail to get it... Maybe I'm wrong.

I don't think it's to hard to guess what it is, though
mild ginkgo
true

Apparently boss names aren't even localized?

nagy jános. ah thats hilarious
amber sparrow
Nor are Big John's lines 😦

does nagy janos have nagy fasz

lmao
amber sparrow
I don't think it does

dusk guy as a fucking construction worker
🤣
dusk guy is canonically a greasy hobo
amber sparrow
A riveter is also an occupation afaik
crimson folio
an epic greasy hobo
amber sparrow
"Szegbelövő" sounds more powerful tho
I'm fine with the former, though. "Szegecselő" fits better imo
amber sparrow
W should just import the shit from "napi szuperfegyver"
amber sparrow
It would be good for a mod
amber sparrow
sickles: "parasztmeghajtású fűlegyezgetők", hunting rifle: "távolsági jólbeszoptad"
That's enough
amber sparrow
The closest thing that comes into mind for weapon sway is "fegyverhimbálódzás". (Actually, I did come up with something better now)
crimson folio
i called it "fegyver ingázás"
amber sparrow
I called it "fegyverlengés"
I could name everything "puska" pretty much lol. Repeszpuska, szuperpuska, géppuska, vadászpuska, nyílpuska, szögpuska. It could be a bit of a gag I guess
crimson folio
i named the super shotgun "reszelt csövű" just because i already had 2 "puska"s and it hurt my eyes a bit
amber sparrow
I was fine with it. I pretty much chose these except for the assault rifle and the riveter
crimson folio
everythings a rifle, damnit.
amber sparrow
There isn't really a one-to-one correspondence in the terminology
crimson folio
True, but we can still be creative about naming the weapons, cus theres a lot of variants of these.
Actually, what did you name e1m1?
amber sparrow
I only ot to it now. "Disznósajt" would be my first guess
Something involving "túró" could also be considered. Considering an alternate meaning of "head cheese"
amber sparrow
It's just what it is. But I might look up some stuff. Naming the levels might be more difficult. Should I make some DC server for further discussion?
amber sparrow
I can't paste invite links here I guess :/
crimson folio

amber sparrow
Um... I'm not sure if "Brimstone Ghetto" is a reference to something

amber sparrow
Came up with a name
smh key text colorcodes are just 128s in the respective positions
spare cobalt
that is pretty cool
crimson folio
d?
amber sparrow
I don't get why boss names aren't localized. 😦
amber sparrow
Everyone else could be renamed though
tardy cove
I just got a Dusk beta update, any news on what it is?
mild ginkgo
Patch notes are available on the forum
tardy cove
Thank you!
simple pilot
actually big john in polish language would sound perfectly hilarious
amber sparrow

round quail
Gros Johnny sounds pretty good in french tbh
severe quail
so I am trying to get back into Dusk on gog, DuskWorld runs and looks great but I feel like Dusk SP for whatever reason looks a tad bit blurry overall compared...
anyone else notice that or??
like in the menu specifically
its weird
severe quail
its everything, I noticed it in the fakedos loadup screens
in game looks fine because I use pixilation but the menu just looks off
its not a huge deal was just wondering if anyone else noticed it, I haven't played SP since steam
which was a year or two ago
earnest cloud
I'll have to take a look but I think I do remember seeing something like that
Could it have been the updated borked something there were 2 in one day
severe quail
also never noticed how graphically demanding the game is, I can't have someone's stream running in my 3rd monitor while playing I lose tons of frames lol weird
earnest cloud
Lol yeah unity is like that
severe quail
I don't really play modern games so I don't usually have to turn that monitor off, I even have a 1080 in this thing lmao
earnest cloud
I played totally accurate battle grounds and it sort of demands a lot of graphical power for having no textures
severe quail
yeah I guess its just unity
love the game tho
hits the spot when you are tired of playing the same custom quake map packs over and over
earnest cloud
Yeah
severe quail
tbh never really get tired of quake this is just the next best thing
I work this Saturday too 😢 I have been having a blast the past two frag nights
earnest cloud
Yeah, sometimes you just need a new coat of paint or a slight alteration to an old recipe
aw that sucks
severe quail
yee
earnest cloud
Is it ok if I post a picture here?
earnest cloud
I took a look at the main menu and it doesn't look to blurry
severe quail
go for it
severe quail
right thats how my game looks, now boot up duskworld
earnest cloud
ah
severe quail
its just a slight blur but its definitely noticeable
mild ginkgo
@severe quail Try setting pixelization to 2, then back down to zero
severe quail
then back up to what I had it set at or? lol because I really enjoy the pixelization
mild ginkgo
yeah
severe quail
btw long time no talk man how are you?
mild ginkgo
im good dude, how are you
mild ginkgo
but anyways, its possible the math of the pixel filter is getting fucked up and thats why your game might be blurry
and yes, they sure are
severe quail
ok restarting the game now
mild ginkgo
so setting it to zero then back up to where you had it might fix it
nah you shouldnt have to restart
severe quail
thats what people keep telling me but I grew up with Windows NT 😉
hehe
anyway, it still looks the same
like I said its not really a problem just weird that I noticed it, pretty significant between DW and SP
mild ginkgo
Can you provide a screenshot of the issue?
severe quail
sure
SP
DW
idk what it is exactly but DW just look so much more clear
gog version btw
both the same res
I feel like DW has shadowing behind the letters and more of an outline or something
never noticed that before
very interesting lol
the really weird part is its the same in the fakedos screens, DW is bright and clear lettering but SP is dim and a bit blurred
SP
well it wouldn't let me take a screenshot of DW in fakedos lol
oh well you get the point I think hehe
cyan sonnet
How does the endless mode score work?
cyan sonnet
I understand how you get points per kill and harder enemies give more points it's just the multiplier that is confusing
amber sparrow
@severe quail I don't know whether your system's display settings might effect your game's looks
amber sparrow
Some games just don't work when the scaling isn't 100%
@wheat prawn you extract the stuff you get on duskmods.com. You have to look for the folder that has "maps" "sounds" or "textures" and such folders in it
amber sparrow
You need the SDK
wheat prawn
and where do i get that
amber sparrow
Are you on steam?
wheat prawn
yes
amber sparrow
Right click in steam library and go to properties
wheat prawn
yeah
amber sparrow
Then there should be a "betas" tab with a dropdown list that lets you select dusk_sdk
wheat prawn
is that it
amber sparrow
If you apply the game should update and you should have the SDK
wheat prawn
is that all i needed to do
amber sparrow
For the SDK, yes. Then there will be a Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Dusk\SDK\mnt\local directory
There you put the folders I mentioned, with the maps, textures and whatever folders within them
Then launch the SDK, go to modding and choose what mods you want to apply and in what order
wheat prawn
alright
tardy slate
wow JESUS quake mappers reeeeeally dont like dusk huh
simple pilot
what
tardy slate
well exactly that basically
weird but ok

mild ginkgo
it depends which ones you talk to
viral gate
There's a few that aren't fond of it yea
mild ginkgo
like anything, there are people who like dusk, and those that dont
they arent wrong for having that opinion, but certainly some of them can be a bit aggro about it
viral gate
yea some are pretty hostile but whatever
just best to discuss it here than the Quake Mapping Discord I reckon
mild ginkgo
its just videogames at the end of the day
simple pilot
so ppl are getting angry because some other game gets more attention
r w going quake_txt again
jade root
the quake_txt debacle was amazing
mild ginkgo
its whatevs, i get why they dont like the game
and they totally arent obliged to like it
jade root
its fine to not like the game but getting straight up upset and aggressive about it is fucking childish
mild ginkgo
i think discouraging people from learning mapping because its for dusk is a little over the top yeah
jade root
oh is that whats going on?
mild ginkgo
rising tide lifts all boats, as it were
jade root
lmao
amber sparrow
I thought Dusk and Quake were bffs
mild ginkgo
for most people they are
jade root
the hardcore boomers like AE more, oddly enough
mild ginkgo
but like any other topic, theres going to be people who are against it
especially if theyve been fans of quake for 25 years
opal plover
I guess it's because AE ironically is less stylistically rooted in the old stuff
Presentation wise
amber sparrow
Isn't Quake 1996
mild ginkgo
yeah, so 24 years
jade root
yeah probs, maniac
amber sparrow
Ahh
opal plover

The lighting fixes / corpses etc. reacting to light in the sdk add surprisingly much atmosphere. Really cool
Only gripe are the occasional white textures, but that seems to be a more conplex issue if I understood correctly, right?
slow harness

True
amber sparrow
Not enough Romero design
I don't know if boss music 2's ending deliberately syncs up with Big John's death sound
I overlayed them
eternal burrow
i have a question about the sdk do i have to redownload it everytime ill enable it in betas or it'll be downloaded somewhere?
delicate sail
It'll be there as long as you're on the sdk branch
Should show as DUSK [dusk_sdk] in your steam library.
Not sure how it is for GOG tho
eternal burrow
and if ill want to play dusk normally ill need to disable the sdk in betas?
delicate sail
Nah
eternal burrow
oh then i just screwed myself by disablein it
delicate sail
You can choose between SP, MP and SDK on startup when launching through the library tab
eternal burrow
i shouldve checked that before disablein it
god damnt now gotta redownload 1.6gb again
i dont have a stable internet connection so it will take me an another hour
delicate sail
At least you only have to do it once more
eternal burrow
thank god
delicate sail
You could theoretically even play the campaign in the SDK, but iirc there are some issues, e.g. with ||The Escher Labs||
eternal burrow
interesting
jade root
im glad romero had to sign that copy of doom3
what he deserves for turning id into a tech demo company
queen coral
I just love how earnest he is in that photo
crimson folio
What is "Romero design"
queen coral
it's daikatana
crimson folio
Daikatana seems like one of those games that needs to be played to be believed.
queen coral
just play the multiplayer a bit and pretend the sp portion didnt exist
at least the mp is like, quake 2 sci-fi samurai shit, it's not bad really
crimson folio
But the sp is just hot diarrhea?
queen coral
I haven't done the entirety of it vanilla or 1.3, maybe a bit of the vanilla, it's really broken
wouldn't know how to describe it
amber sparrow
Most of firearm terminology in Hungarian is stuck in the 19th century so translating some stuff for Dusk is kinda difficult at some parts
There aren't a lot of firearms here. Occasionally you might come across one or two that are used for hunting, but that's it
gilded meteor
I don't wanna be controversial but fuck the cowgirls
amber sparrow
You should pretty much kill them the very moment you encounter them or else you gon' die
queen coral
they're not very fun to fight against imho, but its not like there are many of them in the game so 🤷♂️
gilded meteor
ye glad they're used like minibosses
delicate sail
Ye
gilded meteor
at least until ||e3m9|| but being well supplied and the infighting they cause makes that encounter fun
delicate sail
Word
amber sparrow
I barely fired shots on that map, compared to how much shit went down
Shooting just wasn't really worth it most of the time. I believe finding that out is the intended way
gritty agate
yeah fighting them is fucked sometimes
sometimes i try to be bold and lightly slowly strafe like it's a bullet hell game, but their rockets still hit
the first one you fight freaked me out af
amber sparrow
Canonically Duskdude dies there
gritty agate
canonically huh?
amber sparrow
I am sad no one expressed limitless joy after I shared the big john sound
shut kelp
gritty agate
are we ever gonna get an official dusk soap merch on the new blood site?
vague egret
its something that might be in the box release thats planned
gritty agate
oh no shit?? i was just memeing but that sounds great lol
cloud quiver
will we get soap that can evaporate anything just like in the game?
ebon radish
You guys know any music like what Andrew composed for Dusk?
I'm not much of a lyrics guy though so I feel like it'd narrow down a bunch of options
simple pilot
which track
ebon radish
All of the action ones, but some ambience like Anesthetized (Infernal Machine music) is good too
delicate sail
For some reason, when thinking of Anesthetized the ambient music in Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines comes to mind
simple pilot
its hard to find something comparable that isnt just in the similar vein
amber sparrow
its something that might be in the box release thats planned
@vague egret But I want a whole supply
tiny wigeon
People freaking out because Chex Quest is getting a box release from LRG.
Sitting here waiting for LRG to put their DUSK box up... 😉
atomic egret
we're partnered with indiebox for our big box release, not lrg
jade root
partnered with lootcrate
mild ginkgo
im actually not sure thats accurate anymore
will have to check in on that
its possible we end up with LRG, i know there were talks at some point
up in the air until we finish everything we need to
atomic egret
we were still working with them back in like... February

No
tiny wigeon
@atomic egret Spiffy. Wasn't 100% on who was doing the box, just thought I had read somewhere that LRG were doing it.

well yeah it'd be weird to do a physical release without it having a case
mild ginkgo
tiny wigeon
😁 Either way, I'm buying one as soon as possible.

crimson folio
is there no physical release of dusk?

what about amid evil

Print it yourself

I live in Kansas... "local print shop" is just code for "we make meth" around here. 😛
jade root
!kindaweird
hollow ivyBOT
crimson folio
damn America really is wild
gritty agate
send me some of that blue stuff
tiny wigeon
Mostly being sarcastic, but yeah... sadly it's not far from the truth.
And, we don't have a print shop around here.
I live in the middle of the country, so, closest shop would be about a three hour drive.
gritty agate
maybe you can use redbubble or those sites like that
make a design and get one for yourself, and people can buy it from you too
cant use the official art though probably, depends on the devs and artist
tiny wigeon
Yeah, 🙂 I'm searching around for a way to get one printed off. That way I get one for the specific size I have space for.
gritty agate
id love to have one tbh
maybe the physical release of the game will have a poster who knows
amber sparrow
I like how Dusk looks gorgeous without requiring a NASA PC
crimson folio
Dusk is a great example of less is more
amber sparrow
While also running at a framerate I cannot complain about
Gahh filters
Pretty much every game out there relies on modern tech for good looks and optimization and if you don't have such tech then RIP game
*cries in Doom Eternal*
faint quail
don't cry about doom eternal, glory kills ruin neo-doom anyway
gritty agate
what ruined it for me was the story in doom eternal and needing to chainsaw everything
ruined is a strong word i guess just disappointed
jade root
bUt It FoRcEs YoU tO sWiTcH wEaPoNs
amber sparrow
To me, Eternal looks awesome
gritty agate
i do switch weapons i love doing that!
i did it in 2016 too but here it feels like you need to chainsaw to get ammo, but i just want to schut
simple pilot
maybe it will get arcade mode just like 16
gritty agate
take a page out of dusk's book, endless mode
that would be amaazing
make the stage look like the cover of the game
faint quail
look at how they massacred my boy
do you remember when the chainsaw was a weapon and not a cutscene?
pepperidge farm remembers
amber sparrow
I really don't mind glory kills.
gritty agate
tfw you look at zombie getting chainsawed for the 10000th time
same i dont mind glory kills
but theres more variety in glory kills than chainsaw
amber sparrow
Isn't it like 2 seconds at max?
faint quail
@amber sparrow a 2 second cutscene every time you kill a goddamn monster
in a singleplayer shooter
amber sparrow
You can also just shoot at them until they die
faint quail
they brag about no reloading but that interrupts the gameplay more than reloading did in any game
enjoy no health or ammo then
gritty agate
but eternal dicensentives shooting them cause there's less ammo
2016 too but more slightly
shooting to kill them i mean
faint quail
☝️
amber sparrow
Can't you choose a different gun when you run out
faint quail
you could just put a balanced amount of health and ammo pickups on the map instead of adding a contrived new system for it
ya know
like every other shooter does
amber sparrow
I honestly don't mind it. But I understand why it's not "retro"
I personally dislike that aspect of old Doom games a bit
gritty agate
i like both tbh
amber sparrow
New mechanics are more dynamic
gritty agate
but for me i love glory kills, but some of the animations are not the best for what they're used for, they could have made quicker animations
faint quail
you dislike being able to customize the experience for the player using the map instead of a new system deciding when the player gets resources?
gritty agate
like he'll tear off a guys arm and slap him with it for example, that takes time. just punch right through the guy and kill him in one second instead of like, three
amber sparrow
A lot more depends on your approach and thinking than on whether you've already played that map before
faint quail
maps for classic doom controlled difficulty with monster and resource placement, you can't do that with the glory kills in neo-doom, so custom maps are fated to struggle and die because they can't make them harder to correspond with a more skilled playerbase
amber sparrow
This could go on forever
I'll just say I'm pretty sure I would like playing Eternal
The gamedesign looked pretty dope already in 2016
faint quail
why the fuck is brutal doom heresy but neo-doom isn't, brutal at least relegated glory kills to the berserk powerup and didn't rely on it for resources
amber sparrow
They may have figured out the resource management from old Dooms belongs in a horror game
gritty agate
mate, i love doom 2016, one of my favorites of all time
faint quail
old dooms were part horror game
gritty agate
but eternal honestly plays different a bit
faint quail
that is why they were so cool
gritty agate
thats why i was disappointed
amber sparrow
Yeah I guess. New Dooms just aren't horror
faint quail
your first playthrough everything is terrifying but in subsequent playthroughs fear is replaced by bloodlust so it doesn't get old
gritty agate
this isn't the "doom 2016 2" i wanted, it's still pretty fun though but not as good as 2016 i think
amber sparrow
It doesn't have to rely on subsequent playthroughs
faint quail
nothing relys on subsequent playthorughs
I'm saying its dual nature made it more replayable
a regular horror game gets old after the first
gritty agate
that's why im surprised when people say doom 3 isn't doom
the og games were already kinda scary
faint quail
because you know what happens and thus is not scary
doom 3 threw away the action for the horror and doom 2016+eternal threw away the horror for the action, both were mistakes.
faint quail
that'd be awesome
amber sparrow
I would usually only play though a game once anyway. And I would choose Eternal over any other FPS game if I could
faint quail
dusk has the same dichotomy btw
remember your first time in the ruins in e2m2 holy shit
gritty agate
the wendigo level right?
gritty agate
fuuuck
it's honestly a scary game i audably freaked out a few times in it
the terrors too, or the horrors
faint quail
I was on edge the entire time through crypt of the flesh
(the map that horrors are introduced)
gritty agate
dusk has that balance of horror and action just right
amber sparrow
The only reason I would replay Dusk would be to record myself playing it, even though it's my fav game pretty much
faint quail
just the fact that crypt of the flesh and the dweller in darkness exist in the same game nay the same episode is amazing
gritty agate
btw i think the low poly look is scary, that's me personally
faint quail
leaves more to the imagination
gritty agate
when i was a kid i grew up with low poly games and alot of those games freaked me out, it's like a weird cubed reality
amber sparrow
Episode Three was my favorite episode. Each episode was better than the previous one imo
faint quail
I think they were building up
I'll probably replay dusk in cero miedo since i can take it was way too easy, only died twice to combat in my whole run and that was in e3m9 dweller in darkness
gritty agate
that's what i like about dusk too, the pacing
amber sparrow
Huh did you not die to fucking Mama
gritty agate
first it's cultist, then it's military and demons, then its demonds and cultists
faint quail
I died to falling off ledges in the mama room not mama herself
I said to combat
I died to falls a couple more times
gritty agate
the platforms were the hard part yeah
amber sparrow
Oh I fell off too actually
faint quail
the other place I fell off a lot was that one platform in as above so below
gritty agate
i was thinking about the mama boss recently, i think the platform where she spawns should be bigger, then you have to get close to her and its risky, but you dont fall
vs its easy to dodge here, but you might fall
faint quail
it was actually inescapeable but I didn't figure it out until my fifth try
gritty agate
thankfully theres all those barrels
amber sparrow
A barrel does only 300 damage
faint quail
another episode 2 boss, big john died in like 12 seconds to the riveter and I wasn't even cheesing him
gritty agate
only 300? damn
faint quail
the dweller in darkness was the only challenge in the game for me so that sucked
so imma replay on cero miedo and see if that changes
gritty agate
thats a tough one yeah
its all about knowing what weapon to use when, for me
also you can use falling to your advantage
since you just get teleported back
amber sparrow
Oh you mean you weren't playing on CM? @faint quail
gritty agate
i can take it probably
amber sparrow
Oh shit I misread
amber sparrow
I was just surprised because I played on CM and there were a few other places where I died
faint quail
I was gonna play on cm but it said "not recommended for first playthrough"
gritty agate
yeah it says that
always appreciate it when developer tells you the right difficulty to play on
amber sparrow
I died relatively few times, I don't think it was that bad
faint quail
I'd like a new difficulty between cm and duskmare where its challenging but you're not instakilled plz
also remove the soap and madness crystals from that difficulty
muted jolt
only if that dificulty it's hidden/unlocked after cero miedo
remove the crystals and soap are pretty core to the game
and i don't really use the soap that much
faint quail
yeah that's fine
gritty agate
bruh i didnt even know what they did when i first played
faint quail
its just soap fucks every boss and madness fucks every otherwise difficult encounter
so when someone says "I beat game on duskmare" my eyebrows instantly raise
because I know they cheesed that shit out
muted jolt
pacifist run don't use soap lmao
gritty agate
you can do pacifist run in the game?
muted jolt
yes
gritty agate
like undirtaal
muted jolt
yes
gritty agate
how's that possible tho
muted jolt
Jakobs turns into you best friend
eternal carbon
by not killing anything
amber sparrow
Deaths I recall: The Cutty Mine (last room, surrounded by mages), Duke brothers (more than once), Ghost Town monster closet, Experiments, Mama (most players including me die to the platforming), almost every cowgirl encounter in the second episode (fuck them), Dweller in Darkness
gritty agate
i know but arent you supposed to kill everything
muted jolt
you get a icon in the level if you done pacafist
gritty agate
i swear there's some stuff that only triggers if you kill the enemies but maybe im missremembering
amber sparrow
Dweller in Darkness is probably impossible without the David exit on pacifist
muted jolt
that's it's one of the reasons it's there
also, final level you don't kill anybody
jakobs die by the mages
nyanthalyphop just shrougs oof your bullets
gritty agate
do you get a soap for nyarla?
amber sparrow
no
gritty agate
give him a wash
amber sparrow
Dusk, the level, cannot be soaped
muted jolt
you can grab the soap, but can't teleport it to the boss levels
gritty agate
so jakob gets killed by the mages so how do you beat nyarla?
muted jolt
you don't really kill it
muted jolt
you beated the game?
gritty agate
yea i did
muted jolt
well, remeber the ending
gritty agate
im just asking for the pacificist route
amber sparrow
Two of the three female enemies kick more ass than the rest of the things pretty much
gritty agate
yeah u dont really kill him he's eldrich
muted jolt
Dusk the level, pacifist route it's just the standard game
amber sparrow
I thought the priestesses would also kill me like fork maidens and cowgirls but they were pretty weak
muted jolt
also pacifist sometime it's a pain to do
cause barrels explosions counts as your damage
amber sparrow
Not sure if I ever actually died to fork maidens but I often reloaded saves when they damaged me because it was a certain nope
amber sparrow
I'm not even sure how much damage fork maidens do
gritty agate
so if i do pacifist, i'll just take all the barrels and put them in the corner
muted jolt
withuout taking acount moral
gritty agate
maybe make a nice little stack
amber sparrow
wtf pitchforks don't explode afaik
gritty agate
thats how they killed frankenstien
amber sparrow
I couldn't tell how much damage some attacks did because by the time I looked at my health it said 0
gritty agate
speaking of getting damaged i wanted to ask you guys this
why does duskdude sound like minecraft when he gets hurt
amber sparrow
John Minecraft
amber sparrow
Not even sure who did John Minecraft's hurt sound
amber sparrow
yeah I found it just now too lol
gritty agate
eyy, greatminds think alike
gritty agate
freesound . org mate
might as well use it
i wonder where john dusk got his hurt sound from then
crimson folio
Reminds me of the game maker default "ow" sound.
gritty agate
maybe similar site
amber sparrow
John Dusk got his pain and jump sounds from David
amber sparrow
On the other hand, BIG John Dusk is voiced by Dave

i'd like to thank the devs for making most inputs bufferable
i don't think i would enjoy hup hup hup-ing across the maps if i had to spam scroll wheel to do it

what did you change?
thorn trout
Freesound is an incredibly useful site
Even now that I own audio libraries I still use it regularly
amber sparrow
Still not a lot of sounds there match this quality
I need to find excuses to spam this everywhere
No one but I will find it funny
gritty agate
yoo its john david dusk
i use epidemic sound but i'll still use free sound libraries they always handy
clear cloak
so I'm not sure why exactly, but I've noticed that the key indicators in the bottom right corner of the screen disappeared for me after a couple levels

burnt stirrup
so regarding this game
does anyone else have an issue where the game crashes when it says its loading tunes
it nearly crashes
it seems to spike or something
faint quail
nah it just takes a really long time
mild ginkgo
its because youre clicking around a whole bunch probably
amber sparrow
Sometimes Windows thinks the game is frozen while loading and a way to avoid that is to just wait ad not press anything

when it says loading tunes, its not lying
its loading 150+ music tracks from the game
eternal burrow
thats why it says in brackets "this may take awhile"
mild ginkgo
lmao
it will be sped up in the SDK version of the game significantly
like, 20x or more
eternal burrow
yeah it is noticable
mild ginkgo
thats only the beginning
eternal burrow
well maybe it doesnt load the music at all? since the menu is completly silent
earnest cloud
Is there a way to not load in the music for the sdk version?

i
i am on mission 10 of episode 2
missions 8 9 and 10 are terrifying
im having a bit of trouble with this boss
any advice?
cloud quiver
shoot at it until it dies
burnt stirrup
thanks
amber sparrow
If you constantly run from it it cannot do much
Plus you can do that while also shooting at it so that it eventually dies too

alternately, telefrag the boss and get an acheivement
burnt stirrup
i can telefrag the fucker?

Big John in DUSK is voiced by Big John from ROTT remake who is voiced by Dave Oshry yagaha

its pretty cool that the devs look after the server, as long as theyre okay with the game being criticised
there is another community im in that has a server owned by officials and.... shivers
thank you
jade root
What
The devs don’t moderate the server lol
The admins and moderators do
Lains isn’t the owner of the server either
Dave Oshry is
amber sparrow
My brain automatically goes "yagaha" every time I encounter his name
graceful wing
dave owns the server as he's the ceo of the company
but we handle the actual running of it
crimson folio
Reimu runs the server
mild ginkgo
we do check in on the server though
and you can criticize the games all you want
we arent perfect, and we know that
and if we can learn from your feedback, why not

i think the most ridiculous moment i had in dusk so far
was barely beating the "creation"

and then being like

what about the third one
faint quail
the screaming made your voice hoarse

yesn't

its in e3m9 ur good for now

anyway the boss that gave me most trouble was definitely the mama
the... original mama
its absolutely terrifying
for a monster with a single attack

he didnt fought the third one

Imagine not fighting all 3 in the same level tbh

The third is a secret. You should try to find it :)

is the third called THE FINAL CREATION?

Dusk has updated in steam a couple times in the last week. Where can I go to read exactly what these updates are doing?
latent rock
There are patch notes on steam, you should be able to find it by googling dusk sdk patch notes
amber sparrow
Slowly playing D64 on Watch Me Die, but every time I think about it I'm like "Please no"
When I was playing through Dusk on CM, I was like "Oh yes"
D64 makes you feel like you're in hell
It's evil to the point it becomes pretty hard to have fun
gritty agate
Doom 64 really makes you feel like doom
latent rock
Is it worth getting doom 64 for the new levels? Ive only played the original
wheat prawn
yeah Doom 64 is better then 1, 2, and 3 imo
burnt stirrup
@latent rock you’re referring to the port remaster?
Because if you liked d64 then sure
But idk personally i dont enjoy the old doom mechanics
Only beinf able to move the x axis
wheat prawn
have you tried gzdoom?
latent rock
No i mean the remaster. I played og 64, just not the new levels
Yeah i like Doom 64 better than 1 and 2 too overall
But it doesn't beat doom 1s first episode
faint quail
yeah gzdoom lets you jump and crouch and look in all directions its baller
Imma say something controversial
as far as commercial doom games go
the master levels takes the cake
wheat prawn
Doom 1
crimson folio
Hey guys, sorry for bothering yall right now, but i've been having problems with Dusk, and none of the fixes or tutorials work that i've seen/found. The game just crashes when trying to load music i guess. Any ideas?
wheat prawn
E2 > E1
crimson folio
also, doom 1 e1 is just iconic e2 is far better gameplay wise
maps are just better imo
The game just takes a long while to load the music. Unless it actually shows it crashes
it does
i got crashlogs too
faint quail
doom 1’s limited monster variety kinda stifles it, doom 2 and any commercial wads made using it tend to be better
(ahem master levels ahem)
faint quail
plutonia relies too heavily on chaingunners, revenants, and archviles
crimson folio
fucking hitscanners
faint quail
doesn’t take advantage of the full cast
I think evilution is better than plutonia, doom 2 is better than both, and master levels is the best
crimson folio
tnt, is big, long and boring really, still good, i like it but, it doesnt even get close to plutonia or even vanilla doom
faint quail
plutonia just spams the same 3 monsters which in my opinion is worse than the slog of evilution
faint quail
you can see in pwads that you can make much harder doom levels than plut without relying on spamming the same 3 monsters
jade root
Also are you alt tabbing during the loading?
crimson folio
no
jade root
Or clicking around?
crimson folio
not at all
crimson folio
nice
jade root
Make sure you say that you aren’t alt tabbing or clicking around
crimson folio
i tought the discord was for this kind of stuff
jade root
It IS but it’s also for general discussion
crimson folio
can i talk to david somehow about it?
jade root
As you can see your initial message is already buried by doom discussion
I mean if you want to dm him I’m not gonna stop you but I can’t promise he’ll reply
Dude gets a lot of dms a day
crimson folio
damn.
jade root
One more thing does the game just go to “not responding” or does it actually close
crimson folio
wait a sec
jade root
Cause if it doesn’t respond just try waiting a bit
It’s still loading
Games tryna load 150 music tracks
gritty agate
that's really strange tbh
yeah mine crashed too at first but that's cause i clicked around
it takes a while to load but as long as i did nothing it was good so that's strange
crimson folio
can i send pictures here?
jade root
Not until you have rat

im just gonna dm it to you guys okay?
jade root
Sure
gritty agate
yea all good
mild ginkgo
youre welcome to dm your logs to me
crimson folio
yeah, where are they real quick
mild ginkgo
also, i just have to ask, have you tried just waiting at the loading music screen?
crimson folio
it crashes
mild ginkgo
no no
sometimes, it might get the "this application has stopped responding" message
that doesnt necessarily mean its crashed
crimson folio
come dm

At least once the game has loaded it is fast but frontloading everuthing at once may cause issues with some pcs that would otherwise run it OK

We got the issue resolved

It's good game
U totally should
crimson folio
What a coincidence.
Everything I do is for attention
here's the attention you ordered 💁♂️
burnt stirrup
Just completed the game!
||jakobs model design was very creepy||
i like the final boss, it was easy enough, and it was diverse enough as well
crimson folio
did you fight the secret boss
if you manage to gather all the soap bars and amalgamate them into one mr clean is summoned to test if you truly are worthy
gritty agate
he kills you in one hit cause he can shoot soap bars at you
crimson folio
ironically he fights extremely dirty
he mops the floor which causes you to slide of the edge and die
gritty agate
yeah slippery map too
burnt stirrup
no i have not managed to destroy mr clean
crimson folio
prepare both physically and mentally
the fight is long and gruelling but the reward is satisfactory
gritty agate
it's the only way to get the soap rifle iirc
crimson folio
I thought it was on e3ms2?
gritty agate
yeah i think you're right
burnt stirrup
are there any records of the mega soap rifle

you mean the mod?

Yeah the gameplay is phenomenal, the art direction is interesting, the environments are interesting and the shotguns are great but i still don't know man.

Yeah it only has a 98% all time approval rating and 99% recent. That's not even that good

Whoa you can fly using objects, that's awesome! Def know at least 1 spot I'm checking out
I hope this is intentional and I find some crazy secret using this

Yeah I was asking because I can't get a stable 160Hz even on 640x480, I've got the same performance on 1920x1080, seems like resolution doesn't make any difference

Hi guys , any news for DUSK on PS4/Switch ?
mild ginkgo
the switch port is under very active development
and will be the grounds for any further ports effectively
eternal burrow
keepers of the gate ost is dusks equivalent of bfg divison change my mind
jagged ferry
if you mean it's objectively the best song in the ost
then i can't change your mind
because that's just true
tiny ridge
personally, i really, really like skinwalker and death from above
eternal burrow
death from above is also nice, but i hate its long intro
amber sparrow
There are other tracks just as good as Keepers of the Gate in my opinion
amber sparrow
My favorite is either SkinWalker or Crypted Chaos, but that might change
eternal burrow
my most favourite are keepers of the gate, occultivated and murder machine inc
amber sparrow
also this
eternal burrow
also didnt Occultivated played in other maps or only in ||e3m1||
amber sparrow
I don't know of any tracks other than miniboss ones that played in multiple maps
It's a kickass soundtrack and works well together with the game
Only thing for me was that action tracks sometimes didn't end and I was looking for secrets with aggressive music stuck on so I turned it off for a while at times
I guess the game was cheering me on to beat the shit out of those secrets
eternal burrow
well yesterday i was replaying dusk on intruder mode and i broke the sequences at e2m1 with the climbing pickup
i escaped from the battle and went for the riveter which triggered ||death from above|| sequence and i had 2x more enemies and music just decided to just go away
and that was the most derpish fight i ever had
amber sparrow
Once I wanted to see if I could keep the music running by not killing the enemies until the very last wave but I couldn't 😦
Anyway, I think my only problems with the game were
-some of the monster closet designs
-the music bug
-some teleporters made me face the wrong direction for no apparent reason so I was facing away from an enemy, even though on video I saw people exiting facing the enemy
Not a particularly long list, and none of these were that bad either
eternal burrow
in dusk my only problem was just the music bugs
nothing else bothered me
but also they only happened 2-3 times when i was doin first playthough so theyre not that annoying
amber sparrow
The third was notable in E3M8 where you get teleported next to a bunch of explosive barrels with a cowgirl that's supposed to be in front of you
But I consistently kept getting teleported facing away from the bitch, which wasn't the case on video
Heck, maybe all teleporters in the game were reversed, idunno
amber sparrow
DUSK 2 needs to have a throwable cigar for lighting up gas n shit
It could even be part of the level progression, blowing a hole open or something
Actually, gas cans could release petrol or whatever so you could light it later
crimson folio
set yourself on fire for extra damage
tiny ridge
btw, i never got the cigar in any of the episodes
on my first run a couple weeks ago
where is it usually?
crimson folio
You have it at all times
tiny ridge
oh
crimson folio
You can equip it by pressing 0 i think
crimson folio
Nah i didn't notice until i beat the game once myself

im vary excited to have this game on switch, 😄
its gonna be great takeing it with me 👍 
plucky torrent
@jagged ferry I know Im incredibly late on this but I do know about the soap ||being in every level and has the ability to one shot anything when you throw it||.I was just bringing up barrels can be a usual weapon as well and semi cover if its a non exploding barrel
eternal burrow
well you can also mostly 1 shot enemies by throwing stuff
i always kill the first 3 lethernecks at e1m1 by yeeting barrels at em
jagged ferry
@plucky torrent i literally don't even know what conversation you're referring to
plucky torrent
The one where I talked about the barrels being one of the most deadly things in Dusk and you said “He doesn’t know about the soap”
gritty agate
yeah someone told me barrels dont do that much apprently
dapper cape
yeah boulders are the real 2nd place

tfw when i first played e1m1 and didnt know you could throw

hey guys
i had the soundtrack offered of DUSK
but if i remember correctly
when it came out, it was in the game folder
can we access a link to download it in FLAC for those who have it ?
mild ginkgo
that option is available on steam
in your library
you can opt into high quality versions of the OST to get the flacs
gritty agate
@amber sparrow oh yeah ofc, but boulders would have made it less hectic lol
torpid locust
dusk doesn't have a flac version on steam tho
mild ginkgo
i think it does, iirc we updated the osts to have flac versions that you have to opt into
torpid locust
doesn't lol
mild ginkgo
are you opted in?
torpid locust
i think you mean the amid evil one
torpid locust
but yeah i can't get the flacs
mild ginkgo
hmm
ill look into it
there definitely is a flac version available
but getting it might be impossible
