I mean, Leon is on right now, but he’s also in a call
#amid-evil-or-hunt-showdown
glass glade
Well it's also not very helpful for him to know the bug exists, if I have no idea what causes it or how to reproduce it
dreamy coral
fair enough
dreamy coral
oh hey Leon
glass glade
yeah lol
glass glade
any tips on ways for me to try and reproduce it? I'm not really a QA guy so I don't even know where to start there tbh. Would love to help get it fixed because it makes 100%ing pretty annoying when enemies just disappear
fringe flint
it's a tough one. probably the best is to have a video of the whole level. You probably already have that for speedrunning.
night ginkgo
e1m2 right?
fringe flint
Then you have to just analyze the tape. Sometime debugging sucks
glass glade
only thing i can think of i guess is going through my footage and cross comparing each enemy, but that can be a little tough
ive had it happen a few times on e1m3
night ginkgo
🤔
glass glade
i dont recall it happening on e1m2 but can't remember
my theory is that you put it in intentionally and it only occurs when I'm having a really good run ^.-
I'm onto you
night ginkgo
glass glade
I'll try to get footage of a run that it happens again, i deleted that old footage because i only have like 20gb free on my harddrive right now for recordings
I mean I could just be stupid and missing an enemy but I looked really hard. Can enemies kill each other?
meager forge
they can
glass glade
Because my suspicion is that an enemy was killed by his friend and it didn't count. There are 2 flying guys that spawn in an area but when I got there on this run there was only one fly boi
dreamy coral
oh
meager forge
i think it happened once during my playthrough
dreamy coral
I guess it’s just a super rare occurrence
glass glade
well i got a <15 minute run of episode 1 100%. Wasn't as good as it could have been but I give up for the night, that felt decently fast

anyone got problem with "A Real Klutz" achievement

were the par times 100% or any%?
glass glade
makes sense
night ginkgo
basically just me or simmo or someone on the QA's fastest time
since we know the layouts/spawns/secrets etc
night ginkgo
basically the same as doom
glass glade
I think they make good pars, I was able to beat all of them 100%ing on episode 1
fringe flint
how many hours under your belt?
night ginkgo
romero would run through the levels as fast as possible
fringe flint

night ginkgo
imagine if it tracked my dev hours
fringe flint
you should
glass glade
just checked, my dev friend has 5700 hours in his game disco dodgeball
signal quartz
71 hours...Leon dude is such a bad boi who sucked my time...
glass glade
not including time spent in unity
fringe flint
wow
glass glade
somehow he doesn't have every achievement though lmao
btw leon i gotta say your game is really good for speedrunning. It has enough tech to remain fun to run but not so much that it feels impossibly difficult. Good intro to running game I think.
glass glade
lol it was mostly that he was the only one that bothered for a while, Wark and I are starting to slowly peck away at his records
fringe flint
lol 8 sec on e1m3
glass glade
Not as bad as Twan_Jones on Dusk's leaderboards lol, that guy is leagues better than everyone else

random question but do you think this game will ever have a multiplayer mode?
meager forge
well i'd love to get into a swordfight with another player in a deathmatch type mode

Assuming the game was built with mp in mind and is successful enough I imagine they would add it like they did with dusk
but maybe the game wasn't built with mp in mind in which case it probably won't happen
would certainly love some coop
meager forge
should ask the big man himself

does the custom resolution option work? i click on it and there's no way to enter anything
crystal spruce
Think you need to make it Fullscreen instead of Borderless
warm drum
i have my resolution set to 1080p and resolution scale set to 100
but the game is blurry and it looks like this https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/777349977885071257/6126B983168668CBAA454CABAB977A2AEBB72CBC/?imw=1024&imh=576&ima=fit&impolicy=Letterbox&imcolor=%23000000&letterbox=true

What's your monitors native res?

Couple things. Make sure your ini isn't set to read only and force the resolution you want by manually editing it

Ini lives in c:/users/name/appdata/local/amidevil/saved/config or some such

How did AMID EVIL get such beautiful graphics?
COLOR THEORY
It's pretty, the first level reminded me of Serious Sam: The First Encounter when you arrive at Hatshepsut
frosty drift
AE borrows visual inspiration from tons of games
crystal spruce
Wait, no. I think it was the Demo level showcasing the graphic effects.
frosty drift
each episode feels like it's own mini game almost
crystal spruce
Still really nice though.
In AMID EVIL, even on Easy it can be difficult. I have to time my axe swings
Most of the time I end up cutting a head off or two. But sometimes I get beat and lose some health
Also, I think some guy is on crack Avain.
frosty drift
lol
crystal spruce
Aw man, I didn't get a green either
I got every single one except green
What am I supposed to do with TWO axes
Aw shit
I never knew the axe was an emoticon
Is it another rare?
Dunno, but it's the level 5 badge also
Nebula Star is fuckin' sweet.
The rare background I got on another account.

ye nebula is the best of the pack for sure
crystal spruce
I'm willing to trade the axe for a green or orange, if anything's interested
I could do that if I had a duplicate of the orange.
The axe though, I don't know if it's common, uncommon, or just another rare.
plucky isle
karmic pulsar
Wots all this then?
crystal spruce
Out of the first 4 chapters, I think Solar Solstice is the best and Domain of the Sentinels is the worst. That's not to shit on Sentinels, I don't think the first level is the best but the rest of them are pretty fantastic.
Can't wait to play more.
Domain suffers a bit on Warrior mode
In the first level you get a Star of Torment almost immediately, then the second level has no SoT and the third level gives you one almost at the very end, which is a very weird choice since the Star is quite clearly the weapon for this episode
tardy cove
I kinda like they don't hand it to you that easily, anything that makes it more challenging is welcome
Besides, one plays with Warrior mode at his/her own risk
crystal spruce
Yeah ok but then why are Sentinels only countered by the SoT
Just saying, adding a secret SoT at the start of each level would really improve the episode
tardy cove
I guess you mean the basic melee guys? Those are pretty easy to kill with anything
And so are the squids they release, so
crystal spruce
The SoT prevents parasites
karmic pulsar
If you slice at the head with Blade of Whispers it also kills it
That's what I always do
tardy cove
Or just kill the thing when it spawns, it takes just a shot from anything. If it were more difficult than that, then I believe it would justify changing the weapon layout of the levels, but it isn't so it's a welcome added layer of challenge
crystal spruce
I just tried the Whisper's Edge to be sure, but it doesn't seem to do it

Man how does that whole interstellar civilization from SGS keep itself together if it keeps losing planets
devout olive
It's okay Leon it'll all be explained when we start the NBCU
gentle zealot
it prolly doesn't take them all from the same galaxy
there's a lot of them jams out there
vocal ingot
You say that, but there's what
A 1/100 chance of pulling earth?
fairly small pool tbh
gentle zealot
i've thrown at least 200 earths tbh
devout olive
It's after 2050 when we're all dead so it's fine
gentle zealot
early EA was hilarious
crystal spruce
I remember
gentle zealot
did 4 in a row once
vocal ingot
yeah

Earth was like every 10th planet
vocal ingot
that was some silly shit

Bought AMID EVIL how long is the first playthrough, do you approximately know?
tall temple
8ish hours on a totally blind run on a harder difficulty
frosty drift
you've also got endless to go through
(the endless mode in AE is way better than DUSK imo)
tall temple
I would say about the same if not longer than dusk. Dusk is much easier
karmic pulsar
@green ivy it’s worth noting that new levels are hinted at
So it’s possible we’ll get more playthrough content overtime
frosty drift
while we can't go into details at this time the champion's journey isn't over quite yet
stay tuned
karmic pulsar
You mean the champions CRUSADE?
frosty drift
frosty drift
really depends on how you play
steady bough
More content for AE. real shit
I thought it was complete. Hype levels going into overdrive
gentle zealot
no he means his journies
fringe flint
Oooh new HYPE nom nom nom nom so tasty
I'm at 10 hours only finished 5 episodes
Probably only 7-8 hours straight playing tho
dusty niche
AE and dusk are both the tits and NB is my new favorite game studio

Hey guys, where do I report bugs?
unborn aspen
Best place would be the Steam Forums! @keen wharf
dark granite
Forums are ideal, but we can take them here if you desire yeah
keen wharf
1 Deleting saves produces a weird bug that duplicates save files in the menu.
2 keys can't be remapped if already mapped (Except for the Tab key which will have two functions if the player attempts to use it for anything)
I'll go add these to the fourms as well
supple pagoda
do enemies have elemental weaknesses in this game or am I imagining things
gentle zealot
imagining things
supple pagoda
damn I guess the whispering blade is just better than I thought
gentle zealot
the ends tear through enemies, makes killing groups quicker
supple pagoda
this game is gonna be a repeat of DUSK where I use the weakest weapon the whole time because I'm afraid of running out of ammo
also has anyone else had problems with weapons not firing randomly
sometimes i have to let go of left click and press it again to get things to fire
supple pagoda
weird
makes sense though, my laptop is trash
I had to play dusk with an intel card because my drivers are so broken
karmic pulsar
I've actually had that issue a bit too and I am on a laptop as well
Are you using a wireless mouse?
And @supple pagoda There is a few minor elemental weaknesses, I.G. The Axe does really well on plant like enemies, the water staff murders fire using enemies like nothing, etc.
karmic pulsar
I think the issue might be that the Amid Evil game dosen't seem to... 'lock' my mouse into place
Like I've noticed my mouse will sometimes pop up on the far left or right of the screen when I'm in battle
supple pagoda
I've also had some troubles using the mouse wheel to scroll through weapons
karmic pulsar
That, I haven't had tbh.
supple pagoda
I mean not glitches, I just think it's way slower than using the number keys
karmic pulsar
But if your mouse is outside of the game screen, it may simply not be registering your mouse in the game so it dosen't do anything
At least, that's my theory
I have no way to back this up
supple pagoda
I've been playing in borderless fullscreen so far
karmic pulsar
Yeah, same. It's not something that happens all the time for me
Just usually when I get into intesne combat where I'm swinging around a lot
fringe flint
Some enemies have elemental weaknesses
lavish aspen
Finally able to play this game when i get home from work 
Difficulty-wise, is it harder then dusk?
excluding duskmare
supple pagoda
it's been harder for me, maybe just because I'm used to the weapon in DUSK
also the one boss I've fought is like an actual boss
glass glade
Depends on the difficulty you're running I guess, I find Evil amid evil easier than duskmare on dusk personally
supple pagoda
oh also the melee enemies are way faster and I find myself getting snuck up on a lot
light obsidian
yeah i usually get hit by sneaky dudes that got stuck somewhere and unstuck themselves by the end of an engagement
manic dragon
just bought the game
lookin for proper difficulty for myself
and this happens
i guess its time for refund
glass glade
guess the game's empty
plucky isle
refund
frail hound
found a possible bug with the difficulty selection level. Wouldn't say it's a big issue, but if you ever do an update patch, maybe consider this:
glass glade
I mean, what problems does it cause?
frail hound
nothing
just an area where I guess you're not supposed to be able to get to
it's nothing bad
tall temple
you jumped out of bounds and died
working as intended 
glass glade
lol
glass glade
i think leon should break speedrunning by adding a credits portal to the hubworld
fringe flint
You wish. Now back to work!
glass glade
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6XCJbdXxyOo another dank run from secrit
OOB is a separate category now btw, so you'll still be seeing normal runs from us.
night ginkgo
glass glade
i think leon prefers the OOB chaos though :P
night ginkgo
defo
frail hound
god i love this game
replaying on evil difficulty
you definitely learn to appreciate the axe a lot more
at least I am
queen leaf
The axe is the best melee weapon in any FPS in recent memory
frail hound
truthfully, I didn't even notice it pulled enemies towards you
guess I need to study up on the codex
but using it now on this difficulty, I'm realizing it's a god send of a weapon - gotta be more strategic with weapon choice etc
queen leaf
looks cool hits hard and chops enemies in half
I think I've used it the most in soul mode out of all of the weapons
it's incredibly fun
frail hound
yeah in soul mode its an absolute beast
on episode 3, is it normal for some golems to be invisible? I legit can't remember
just loaded an old save and come across an invisible golem hurling rocks, but I couldn't seem to hit him :/
glass glade
wasn't normal in my playthrough lol
solid ridge
I've found the star of torment irl
split fossil
woah
gentle zealot
just don't fling the things at people unless you want them to get sick
queen leaf
😬
solid ridge
Gonna pin some ppl to the wall, brb
supple pagoda
you've forgotten the most important aspect of the axe
it has an insurmountable magnetic attraction to things that are alive
they just fly across the room to get chopped in half
frail hound
yuup
One minor suggestion, not sure if it's been bought up. But when using the minimal HUD, is it possible to have some kind of indication on what keys you have? you have the two numbers in the bottom left corner (representing health/mana) but maybe just a colored key icon in the right hand corner for any keys found?
walked around for a while trying to find a key, only to realize I picked it up in the heat of a battle, but didn't notice because I use minimal hud
night ginkgo
yeah could do that
frail hound
👍
night ginkgo
all of them
fringe flint
the enemies, the textures, the lighting, the battles... just incredible.
@supple pagoda the magic of AE is that all of them stay relevant
fringe flint
honestly my bread and butter is the whisper's edge, but I'd have to give it to the voltride for most useful. its wonderful for crowd control
supple pagoda
except that it shreds everything in alt fire
fringe flint
the chain lightning is powerful, even without soul mode
the "aqua scepter" remains useful because it seeks targets. really good for flying enemies
supple pagoda
I'm in E2 right now and I feel like voltride literally always makes the melee enemies spawn a severed head
fringe flint
also in E6, I just encountered enemies that have a really fast dodge. it's really good for them too
supple pagoda
and yeah whisper's edge is cool, especially in more open areas
glass glade
aqua sceptre stays surprisingly useful, mostly for hitting hard to hit stuff
fringe flint
by the way it's called "azure orb"
meager forge
whisper's edge best weapon even though it's really not but god i fucking love the sound it makes
it sounds like you've just unsheathed the most powerful sword in the universe
supple pagoda
I pretty much swap between whisper's edge and voltride for general use
fringe flint
My wife saw it and said "what kind of game are you playing?" i think she think's i'm a D&D nerd now
meager forge
i swap between all except the axe
glass glade
wut
supple pagoda
holy shit
glass glade
axe is so good
supple pagoda
I'm a D&D nerd and now I want these weapons in a campaign
meager forge
ok i actually only used the axe in soulmode
by itself it's good for like weak enemies
supple pagoda
axe is the most reliable way to deal with melee enemies tbh
it just does so much damage
meager forge
i stopped using it regularly around the sacred path
cause by then the game gets harder
glass glade
axe for speedrunning is 😙
Probably the worst weapon for normal play is the LG (whatever that's called in this game) just because of how much ammo it takes
meager forge
the voltride?
glass glade
then again ammo isn't exactly sparse in this game
yeah i don't find a tun of use for the voltride outside of soulmode
meager forge
the weapons i used most were whisper's and the star of torment
fringe flint
if you trigger chain lightning it becomes the best, imho
fringe flint
celestial claw
supple pagoda
star of torment seems pretty hefty in terms of ammo usage but I've barely used it
it uses 2 ammo instead of 1 
glass glade
yeah but it 1 shots
meager forge
it's the fucking mace that throws crystal shards at enemies and pins them to walls
1-2 shots most enemies at point blank
supple pagoda
a regular super shotgun
meager forge
but it's cool cause it's a mace
it would have been even cooler if it were a medieval flail
so you could swing around this big spiky crystal ball and destroy everything
glass glade
crystal spruce
Loving Amid Evil!
Started it just today.
One thing I love with the Whisper's Edge is that you can negate certain other projectiles with it.
fringe flint
yeah I like that too
meager forge
it's so awesome to nullify the moon guards' sword projectiles with it
glass glade
That's actually the main reason I avoid it in speedrunning, having the projectiles get eaten wastes time. Rather just get hit usually
crystal spruce
I got the Celestial Claw, but I don't really intend to use it until I get enough ammo for that weapon.
fringe flint
i have not found mana to be much of an issue
at least on normal difficulty
go nuts
glass glade
ammo acquisition doesn't change much between diffs I don't think, just the amount of enemies I believe. I found myself being too conservative with mana in the game, you can kinda go nuts yeah.
karmic pulsar
My fave with the whispers edge is those knights with the shields in the Solar Equinox levels
Playing pingpong with sword schwings
m w a h
crystal spruce
Whisper is probably least favorite, I just find it less useful than anything else. Even the orb staff has homing projectiles.
night ginkgo
whispers is pretty strong
it also cancels a few projectiles out so can be quite handy
karmic pulsar
I think I like star of torment the most
It's funny, I think I use the Aeternum the absolute least of all the weapons
Like not that I never had ammo for it, most of the time I had it full
I just like individually murdering everything
I think I only actually used it heavily in the uh, 7th Episode
in the last level before boss fite
night ginkgo
crashed the game? was there an error message?
night ginkgo
yeah haha
fringe flint
was that dave?
night ginkgo
yeah
crystal spruce
Blocking projectiles can be useful at times, but I'd rather just dodge them and hit back with something else.
fresh plume
of course
dark whale
Dave is a madman. I love it.
fringe flint
civvie challenged him. results were predictable 😃
supple pagoda
@night ginkgo I didn't write down the error message but I did send a message to unreal
so maybe it wasn't a game problem
fringe flint
civvie had a PG-rated quote at the end of the video. "It's a good game, you should play it." No way Dave was going to take that quote
supple pagoda
it happened when I tried to change to fullscreen mode after my laptop was bitching about native resolution
night ginkgo
if you get the message again paste it here
crystal spruce
I have a good Civvie quote "It's like if you took the speed of quake and turned it up to plaid"
Or something like that
For Dusk
fringe flint
heh
i'll bet the odds are good that was a driver-related crash rather than a game-related crash
meager forge
amid evil is the gritty heretic reboot but dusk is quake on speed
supple pagoda
welp I've got a crash report again
this time it crashed without even launching
should I just post it here or DM it
meager forge
steam dicussions most likely
fringe flint
quake on peyote
supple pagoda
is there a way to force launch the game in windowed mode
it does not appreciate being fullscreen
night ginkgo
hit alt+enter
er
or edit the ini file
C:\Users*yoruname*\AppData\Local\AmidEvil\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor\gameusersettings.ini
