[near mortar]

No matter how difficult it might seem for just anyone to play it, it partially relies upon people figuring out how to make things work for them

Many people will be able to do it even in spite of some really big hurdles but many others will be locked out even if they should be logically 100% capable of playing, you can only help as best you can

queres

😩

These gothic window arch trims are taking forever.

I'm actually going to have to take this to Blender, I can't be copying all of those patches over and over, it will bloat the map size.

at least they look cooler than version 1, these are just sad to witness now

[unique trellis]

Not everything that has ever been built has been magnificebt

I would not be bothered to see these along with the fancier ones

If there is enough distance separating the two

[pine moat]

yep yep, if I'm going through the throuble I might as well make the effort of making these LOD entities.

though making a custom entity might be a bit too far, I'll just set a spawnarg on the func_static to have an LOD model switch.

I'll export the lowres boys at any rate is the point.

[pine moat]

well that was a good hour and a bit down the toilet.

Blender 2.8 predictably is shit at import/export options, so I've had to go back and install 2.79b.

Unbelievable to say it but the old interface is a sight for sore eyes.

[tired warren]

@unique trellis Thanks dude!

[unique trellis]

Noesis converts everything to anything

No problem 👍

[narrow wagon]

@pine moat whatchu got there, those look nice

[true kestrel]

does anyone know what the usual size for ddom sprites is??

[minor bear]

Hey guys. Where can I get SDK for dusk?

[keen bear]

Beta branch on steam

password is oohatinybarn

[minor bear]

thanks

[astral night]

Switch over to #dusk-modding too. This is for general game modding

The pins there have some general info to help you get started

[minor bear]

Thanks. I was mapping on Radiant before. Hopefully the switch will be easy lol

[pine moat]

I have the impression that the SDK currently loads the maps etc., but has no level editing capabilities, though I haven't messed around with it. So you can still map in gtkRadiant, I think most people use Trenchboom which is a derivative.

and @narrow wagon I'm on my dark mod mapping bullshit again; i've not managed to make a complete map since 2016 but this small mansion is coming along nicely. Maybe today I can get to iron out the last module pieces and populate the greybox with them.

[minor bear]

@pine moat You mean that Dark Mod for Doom 3?

[pine moat]

Yeah that one except it's been standalone for like half a decade now.

[minor bear]

That's cool. Doom 3 modding was always some kind of mystery to me. Tried to switch from q3based games (rtcw), but with no success.

[pine moat]

A fun trivia fact is that the levels of Quadrilateral Cowboy, a good game, I'm assured, that I haven't played, were made in DarkRadiant, our fork of the level editor.

If ever one wanted to make QC maps, there's some cross-training there.

[minor bear]

Maybe later, right now mapping for Black Ops 3. Mod tools there are amazing and really comfortable, but sadly restricted to MP and ZM maps only. No SP 😦

suprisingly it still using radiant editor. But they called it Black Radiant

Already ported a few maps from RTCW, W3D, older cods to BO3. Sadly cant port any of the doom 3 maps(even basic geo). Black Radiant just crashing when I do that.

[keen bear]

yeah you can use radiant

and yes, we arent writing our own editor

we are just natively supporting bsp

which there are plenty of great editors for

any one of those that can produce a supported formap .bsp will work

[narrow wagon]

do people talk about original game dev here too? like using unity to make games, or just modding existing engines?

maybe another channel

[misty sparrow]

nope this channel is fine!

anything game-wise you are working on you can post here

[narrow wagon]

[limber grail]

@keen bear bro we are networked right now......

[unique trellis]

bro.. we networkin

[limber grail]

hey everybody let's do a big fucking think and wonder why Unity chose to convert the compiled C# code (CIL bytecode) into fucking C++ code and then compile the C++ code into WebAssembly for the web target

they should've fucking wrote a CIL to WASM transpiler

[unique trellis]

well I don't fuckin know

[limber grail]

I get doing that in the beginning since they already has IL2CPP and wasm is intended to be targeted by CPP so it was easy to set up that toolchain

[unique trellis]

maybe because it was cheaper ™️

[limber grail]

But like we're three years into having this option and they're still using this horribly inefficient method

What u using @rare surge? the new stuff or Unet or something else?

[rare surge]

idrk what unet is, i just set up some blueprints for players joining and set all the movement and actions to be replicated server side

then for hosting theres a cmd prompt command that opens a dedicated server then we used hamachi and the 'open (ip)' console command in the actual game

[unique trellis]

oh you using unreal

btw i added a new attack anim and flame effects like you said a while back

https://i.gyazo.com/f9f5c17fcd7c42f2cb9c92cc005dff3b.mp4

[wraith beacon]

There's kinda a bit of twinning on the pose of the crossbows, could use a little bit of variance between hands.

[analog pollen]

i think the effect itself could use some work, it looks a bit awkward because of the disconnected the particles are, but it's functionally good, makes things a lot clearer

maybe a trail on the hands that would draw a line to connect the particles, if they're all based on the hands' positions

[rare surge]

yea thatd be easy ue4 has a built in ribbon particle effect

[analog pollen]

nice, keep it up

[wraith beacon]

Also I'd probably recommend switching to a post process based lineart solution rather than backface culling line art.

[rare surge]

na i prefer using the backface culling method

i only want the lineart on enemies and viewmodels

like how jet set radio only has the lineart on the characters

[wraith beacon]

I mean, you can do that with post process based solutions too.

UE4 has a stencil buffer.

[rare surge]

would you be able to get the shadowy effect with post process tho

[wraith beacon]

Probably not,

[rare surge]

besides im shit at post process stuff

[unique trellis]

I am an old style kind of guy and the least post process you add the best.
Processing every single pixel on screen every single frame is a burden

[wraith beacon]

Eh in a lot of cases it's better to use post processing for things if it offers the same result, fewer draw calls the better.

[unique trellis]

something something shader

shaders are nice but i am against stuff that runs on the whole screen

[wraith beacon]

After Type To Reload I'm probably going to try and do as few dependant texture reads as possible, because I have a bad habit of having a lot of them.

I mean you can use masks and buffers, and generally it's better to do things all at once rather than per object.

At least when there's a lot of something.

Game tech art is just kinda juggling a bunch of compromises.

TTR now has customizable per character text box speed.

A bit unwieldy but I'm happy with how these text boxes are working right now, was originally going to make em rich text but that'd be, hard.

none of you is making a game in DarkBasic smh my head

[unique trellis]

the fuck is dark basic

also @unique trellis why not cube2

You are right why not Cube2

[crystal kraken]

darkbasic is one of these old languages meant for newbies to code 2d or 3d games

from the dudes behind "the 3d gamemaker" and "fps creator"

iirc brigand oaxaca was made in darkbasic

huh it does look like a club

[unique trellis]

What is the green bar about?

[rare surge]

stamina

for kicks slides and sprinting

[unique trellis]

it feela a bit confusing since it is grouped with the bolts string

[keen bear]

man i love lighting needs to be rebuilt its my favorite game

[rare surge]

same

12 unbuilt objects was a good entry

i guess it is confusing at first but it only takes a few seconds to figure out what it does

[unique trellis]

I would keep only the ammo stuff on the right and move the stamina bar somewhere separate

[rare surge]

i thought about having it in the bottom centre but the black bar would be too distracting in the centre

and it makes more sense to me atleast to have things in 2 locations instead of your eyes shifting around 3 parts of the screen

[unique trellis]

Of course i cannot force you to do anything but for my final argument i will say that if a hud element is confusing even for a few seconds it should not be there

[rare surge]

ill try putting it under the hearts

that might make more sense

[unique trellis]

That is a good thought

[analog pollen]

yeah under the health is where i'd look for stamina

[unique trellis]

I am mighty pleased

Put a black backdrop behind the ammo and you got yourself an hud

[rare surge]

yee

[unique trellis]

I'm new to game developing, what's an easy engine I can use, especially for people with no programming skills?

[rare surge]

it depends if you mean absolutely no programming skills or just new to programming

[wraith beacon]

I'd say Unreal or Unity for 3D and um, Godot or Unity for 2D.

[rare surge]

id say unreal is the easiest out of those personally since its coding is visual, you dont have to type lines of code

clickteam fusion is very very accessible and decently powerful if you want to make 2d

[pine moat]

it also depends on the type of game you want to make ofc, but for pure experimenting, yeah, Unity... stuff like Twine for text-based stuff...

[unique trellis]

@rare surge absolutely no programming skills, I know nothing.

[wraith beacon]

I don't recommend Click team fusion because code is stored per level rather than being universal if that makes any sense.

[rare surge]

yeah it has annoyances but its good for learning

it was my first engine personally

also id recommend looking for online programming courses because you do need to know the fundamentals even with an accessible engine

oh gamemaker or RPG maker are good starts too

probably better than fusion

[unique trellis]

I've heard bad things about gamemaker studio 2.

I was considering it..

[rare surge]

i havent used it personally so cant confirm

[unique trellis]

Also gamemaker studio 2 is not free.

[rare surge]

the bad things might be because theres a lot of low quality stuff made with it due to its accessibility

o

youll definitely want something free while you dip your toes in the water

[unique trellis]

Unreal isnt really a good 2d engine I believe since it's more focused on the 3d aspects.

[rare surge]

yeah youre right on that one

[unique trellis]

I dunno about Unity tho.

[rare surge]

unity supports 2d but youre still better off with something specifically made for 2d

[unique trellis]

Such as gamemaker studio 2, which is paid to use.

[rare surge]

coding a simple 2d game from scratch with c++ or anything similar might be a consideration too

would teach you both the programming and design at the same time

[unique trellis]

Hmm.

Wdym by

would teach you both the programming and design at the same time?

[rare surge]

well youd be learning how to write code and use a programming language in general, aswell as learning the maths and coding needed specifically in the context of game dev

[unique trellis]

Ah, I see.

coding a simple 2d game from scratch with c++ or anything similar might be a consideration too
?

Like, with notepad or something?

[rare surge]

i think youd use visual studio

[pine moat]

Well, an advanced version of it.

[unique trellis]

Oh ok.

[pine moat]

visual studio is sort of the notepad++ of vidya development

[tranquil oracle]

Love2D is what I would recommend for someone learning programming

Question on purchasing gamemaker studio: there's the official website that has it, also the same version(s) on Steam.

I'm confused to whether if it matters where I get it?

[tranquil oracle]

afaik they're the same thing

If you buy it on Steam I think you can link your account with YoYoGames to get a copy on their store anyway, and vice versa

Am I a real game dev yet?

[limber bramble]

yes

[near mortar]

Qualk

Personally I think I'd rather just type in "options" and have an options menu come up instead

It's novel just typing in the options with the value you want but it'd get old and annoying after a while

and excludes the ability to set multiple settings easily and efficiently

[hazy sorrel]

Ye dont be obnoxious with controls outside the gameplay

7th gen games settings on pc was too much

With actual possibility of softlocking yourself in options menu like in bulletstorm

[silent river]

hallo everybody, do i need to download a quake. 1 map editor to make maps for dusk?

[lean gyro]

Yup, TrenchBroom is the recommended editor for now.

[silent river]

something like TrenchBroom and JACK

[lean gyro]

You should check out #dusk-modding, that's the place where all the cool DUSK modders hang out.

[silent river]

and how do i test out my maps do i need to overwrite existing level map names?

[lean gyro]

Nope, all the documentation and notes you'll need are in that channel. Some of it is even pinned.

Trust me, it's nice in there.

[silent river]

alright then thanks for the headsup

[unique trellis]

Is Gamemaker Studio 2 worth buying?

[rare surge]

get the free trial first

[unique trellis]

Expired

[rare surge]

ah

[unique trellis]

The thing is, I didnt even get to use it.

I activated the free trial and forgot about it entirely

So it was already out of use when I came back into gamedev.

[rare surge]

i havent used it myself but it looks worth the price

[unique trellis]

Same.

I must say, $99 is a bit overpriced for a game engine.

Especially its simplicity compared to others.

[rare surge]

you could get the creator package for 40 bucks

if you only want to develop for windows and mac

[unique trellis]

Imagine developing on anything other than a desktop

As a pc gamer, I prefer pc dev than anything.

[rare surge]

creator seems the way to go then

its a yearly fee though

[unique trellis]

And +50 more bucks you'll get the permanent license.

Didn't gamemaker have a free version

Used to back in the day

[rare surge]

yea i always thought gamemaker was free

[keen bear]

also id only advise using gms if you wanna do 2d stuff

[rare surge]

does it even support 3d at all

[keen bear]

it can be done

[unique trellis]

well....

ummm

[crystal kraken]

gamemaker "has 3d support", but I have no idea why would anyone even bother with it

[rare surge]

kind of like how blender "has game support"

[crystal kraken]

no actual level editor for that, and it's really limited in functionality

[unique trellis]

I saw some 3d games back before it had 3d support

[crystal kraken]

with enough patience and vector math you could rasterize shit, and with GM6 or something you can load DLLs

[wraith beacon]

Well, Blender "Had game support"

[hard valley]

perhaps try monogame

[unique trellis]

I suck at 3d level design. That's why gms 2 is ideal for me.

I've seen some impressive things done with the engine too.

It also forces all monsters to be glued to the floor, otherwise the sprite would only stretch from their position, not the floor

Especially crucial for flying monsters

[coarse token]

do the lightning balls from cacos just come out of random locations

seemingly random?

[unique trellis]

The place where projectiles are spawned depends on the actual position of the monster

I cannot adjust the projectiles to come out at half the height of the monsters

Or I could with a huge amount of work that a joke wad does not deserve

[coarse token]

wouldn't it just be half the height of the sector

[unique trellis]

Yes but that means going into the code of each monster to edit their projectile firing function

I cannot do a thing that says "take all projectile firing functions are change the spawn point"

Not that I know of

[coarse token]

any way to lock the monster's heights to half the sector height then? I don't do doom modding

[unique trellis]

That is indeed possible but the sprites are drawn from the origin which is the bottom centered point of the hitbox

So if I set monster to be in the center the sprite will also start from the center

Unless I again change offset of all sprites by hand

That cannot be done by code I have checked

How dare you deny a PlayerController the opportunity of a better outlook in life?

[analog pollen]

depends on your perspective, what if "jump" in this context is referring to jumping off a roof as an act of suicide?

[unique trellis]

Fellas does Unity include .cs files that aren't used in a build?

No you must provide your copy of Counter Strike

Jokes aside i do not know

[tranquil oracle]

@unique trellis Yes (by default) because they might be accessed through reflection

Although if you do an IL2CPP build they will be stripped by default, except types that have been marked for inclusion via link.xml

Alternatively there's [Preserve]

(although [Preserve] is only useful for code you control of course, you need a link.xml file to preserve classes from third party libraries and stuff)

I am not too familiar with Unity so do you mind if i ask what it is about?

[tranquil oracle]

It accesses internal C++ side data from the engine and exports it into a format that various Unity extraction tools can use

This is leading up to a bigger project of mine, but since it's already useful I figured I'd upload it

[unique trellis]

Very nice

[tranquil oracle]

I'm pretty proud of the trick I used here https://github.com/DaZombieKiller/TypeTreeTools/blob/master/Assets/PdbImportAttribute.cs

Unity includes a PDB file with each release, so I use the debug symbols in that to locate function and data addresses at init time, instead of hardcoding them manually (which would only work with one version of the engine at a time)

[hollow adder]

Allow me to introduce myself.

I'm a small nobody who's chanced on DUSK's Steam news announcement. The SDK is officially in alpha. I, with very little to no recent experience, want to seize this opportunity as a chance to pick up a virtual hobby, so to speak.

So I pull up the links, I download... files... and... now I realize I've hit a snag.

See, I've been told to go grab TrenchBroom. That's great. I've been directed to videos where people are using TrenchBroom. That's also great.

...I think I might have gone awry. I downloaded a bundle of files from the GitHub of kduske/TrenchBroom... but... I can't find the executable. And I can't use the README file, it's an MD file and when I google software for it, I'm confronted with two very similar names: Markdown, and MarkdownPad. Left with a coin-toss to pick the right one, I've picked neither and remain in the dark.

Videos show me how to use TrenchBroom, but I haven't found a video on how to set up TrenchBroom in an up-to-date video with an up-to-date set of files. So I'm left thinking I downloaded the wrong stuff, so now I'm stuck!

Where do I even download and install that stuff to get started? That's my big question.

[outer eagle]

Sounds like you downloaded a version of Trenchbroom that needs to be compiled

https://github.com/kduske/TrenchBroom/releases

go here for compiled releases

make sure you download and install the  Visual C++ Redistributable if you're on Windows

once you got that I'd recommend you watch dumptruck's Trenchbroom setup guide (focues on Quake) and the two minute setup guide for DUSK (found in #dusk-modding pins or the NB Wiki)

[tranquil oracle]

Ryack is correct. Also, you can open an MD file in Notepad just fine if you don't have a markdown preview tool handy

[hollow adder]

This is going to sound like a dumb question but, where's the actual download link on that webpage? Do I need to register to GitHub to see it?

[outer eagle]

On the main github page there's a link for releases

which is precompiled stable builds (most of the time)

depends on the developer(s) that host their software

[hollow adder]

Is it something like #2259? There's that link... then there's a link like [Latest Release] which just takes me to the same webpage I'm already looking at. There's below that, v2019.6. I click on it and I get a dropdown of various files, with a green button of Clone or Download.

Oh this might be the right one, because this version has a few different folders! It has 'benchmark,' 'test,' and 'vecmath,' unlike this version that had 'dump-shortcuts.'

Aight now here's the head-scratcher, there's no executable file in the download...

[outer eagle]

Go down to assets on the releases page

Should see this

[hollow adder]

Ohhhh, yeah, I see those...

I saw those but they weren't .exes or anything

[outer eagle]

grab the 7z. of your OS

[hollow adder]

I have the 7z of my OS already

[outer eagle]

Yea... yea it's a compressed folder

containing the application

what OS are you running?

if Windows get Win32

[hollow adder]

Windows

Oh I get it now, I see what's going on

Okay. Now there's... a 7z and a 7z.md5

[outer eagle]

just get the 7z

dw about the md5

[hollow adder]

Right, it's a much bigger file

[outer eagle]

yep

[hollow adder]

Little feedback, this part is really, really convoluted lol, I always end up getting sent straight to videos where TrenchBroom's already been launched

[outer eagle]

No worries you get the hang of it

If you need anything else from github you know where to go now

[hollow adder]

Yeah I get it now, gonna just get this 7z and... now where do I put it...

[outer eagle]

Anywhere you fancy really

[hollow adder]

Alright, so what do I do with that other jumble of files, do I just get rid of those?

[outer eagle]

in the compressed folder?

keep those all together

[hollow adder]

No, the files I already uncompressed before even coming here, the ones that had no executable

[tranquil oracle]

Yeah I can definitely see how someone may be confused by that process

[outer eagle]

ah you won't need those as a end user you can get rid of those

[tranquil oracle]

I might look into making some kind of auto downloader later

[outer eagle]

That would be dope

[hollow adder]

Just a readme and a set of screencaps would do the trick

I follow those pretty easily

[tranquil oracle]

Use the GitHub API to grab the latest release, which then downloads & installs it for you

Could then automatically set it up for Dusk usage too

[hollow adder]

Yeah I should register for GitHub so I can stay up to date

[outer eagle]

I'm not registered there so I'm not sure what the benefits would be, in terms of following stuff

[hollow adder]

Just wanna say, you guys are awesome.

[outer eagle]

I just follow the developers twitters or see people talking

New Blood are a bunch of cool blokes yeh

[hollow adder]

Ok... now extracted to a little custom folder I named DuskDev

And viola! Little square menu, "New Map..." no games found so, yeah! I should be able to just watch videos from here on out, thanks all!

[outer eagle]

👍

good luck it's a real nice piece of software

[hollow adder]

👍

[tranquil oracle]

Looking forward to seeing what you create!

[hollow adder]

I've got some crazy ideas that abuse quirks of DUSK's engine but, the quirks are just bones - they need the meat of level design to go with it too

[hasty oar]

Hey. I have opted into the SDK branch on Steam but I can't find any SDK directory, like is mentioned here "SDK/mnt/local/" - https://dev.newblood.games/index.php/Dusk:FAQ#Creating_Mods

[coarse token]

dusk's engine is just unity

[unique trellis]

🅱️usk

[spare scarab]

I think dusk mods channel fits better for that kinda stuff btw do check it out

[hollow adder]

I'm writing out a quick guide for downloading TrenchBroom, so I got a question to get this information right. If you're on Linux, do you download and extract the .dmg or the .rpm?

[hasty oar]

@hollow adder debian derivatives can use "dpkg" to install the .deb package. I think .rpm is the same but for Red Hat derivatives

[hollow adder]

Right I meant .deb, not .dmg, thanks, okay.

[hollow adder]

Eugh, my post needs some editing.

[unique trellis]

wouldn't this fit better in Dusk-mods

[hollow adder]

Yeah it would, let me move it there.

Alright, moved the quick guide.

Just another day at the workplace

Maybe you could have a couple of sounds for the jumppad

[analog pollen]

maybe

[rare surge]

or a modulator

unless it already has one and im being deaf

[analog pollen]

yeah should add a random pitch shift obvs

and probs use this sound for player/enemy and then a fainter one for objects, gibs and such

[unique trellis]

I personally think sounds that are fully re-pitched is too much.
I think if you could do a variation with a different start and another one with a different tail it would be enough

Different sounds depending on bouncing thing would be top

[analog pollen]

you'll barely notice a 10% pitch variation

[unique trellis]

By tail I mean at least the last 3rd

My language was not good enough to convey that thought

[analog pollen]

no i get what you mean

i'm just saying that if i add a 10% pitch variation (+-5%) you'd barely notice if at all but it'll add practically infinite variation to the sound

it's enough to make it less monotone

[unique trellis]

Oh ok I get it

There was a misunderstanding

In my mind I was thinking about the Marathon exploding dudes who have huge pitch differences

[hollow adder]

Terraria does that too, has a pitch variation. Absolutely crucial to the lifespan of playing it

[plucky sierra]

Hey everyone, I got a (stupid) question in regards to creating maps for Dusk with TrenchBroom. Took me a while to get TB running like in the guides I found (https://dev.newblood.games/index.php/Dusk:FAQ, https://www.reddit.com/r/Dusk_The_Game/comments/f33t7u/how_to_make_maps_for_dusk/) but I think I managed.

Thing is, while I do have access to Dusk's textures from the WAD, I can't seem to find any Dusk entities in TBs browser. Do I need to import those via additional means? Never worked with TrenchBroom before and I only have some faint Doom mapping experience from waaaaay back, so I'm basically a total noob here.

[hard valley]

There's #dusk-modding for dusk related modding and check entities.txt the sdk folder to find which entity works in dusk

Some translate to dusk ones like monster_dog becomes a black phillip

[plucky sierra]

Oh, sorry. I assumed dusk mods was for finished work. Think I got it now, thanks. Just found a list with all entities and how they correspond to Dusk. Thank you! ❤️

so understandably so

[astral night]

Dusk sucks

[unique trellis]

Better than Fortnite spam

[crystal kraken]

it's a mod, featuring a game published by new blood, on the #general-modding chat, I mean, if there's a place where people are interested in seeing the mod progress it's here

so I'd say you're gonna see it quite a few more times

[robust ridge]

Like, right now...

Buffing the riveter a little bit. Now it does damage that resembles 2 rockets. (more or less, up to rng)

Damage increased from 100 (+20 random(1,8)) to 150 (+50 random(1,8)).
And "fulldmgradius" increased from 18 to 72.

Also sightly buffed the mortar by extra 20 damage, amongst other things.

(don't worry i'm not gonna spam every little change, but thought the riveter buff could be somehow relevant for feedback.)

[hollow adder]

Oh is that because the Riveter gets much less ammo economy and half max ammo compared to DOOM's rocket launcher? Makes sense

[robust ridge]

Mortar and riveter did the same damage, but thought the fast firerate of riveter was enough "buff" for the rockets, as in "You fire faster but you sacrifice a rocket ammo". To keep the vanilla-like balance.

Then noticed people on livestreams struggling with ammo management and using riveter very often, and I was like, "yeah I'm not sure that idea will work anymore".

ZMovement 3.2
https://forum.zdoom.org/viewtopic.php?f=43&t=65095

New Features:
- added option to have a more Quake like wall friction;
- new-ish option menu, now the tooltip is displayed near your mouse pointer after it has been on top of the option label for a second.

Changes:
- general optimization, partly thanks to functions I previously did not know existed (SetPos(), SetXYZ(), CheckMove() etc. etc.) but mostly because of generally improved knowledge;
- total rework of the bobbing logic to be more lightweight and not behave differently depending on the framerate;
- removed a few redundant or useless cvars.

Bugfixes:
- fixed jumping acting janky on 3D slopes less steep than 45 degress;
- fixed crouch toggle not working;
- fixed AirDash not granting speed boost for Dusk, Painkiller, and Quake movement modes;
- fixed player being shot in a bottomless black void when using Quake Movement when releasing all directional inputs after moving against a convex corner.```
Fun fact some of this stuff was already in DuskMovement for DOOSK

[robust ridge]

Doosk just got an update =P
https://www.moddb.com/mods/doosk-aka-dusk-weapons-rip/downloads/doosk-public-version

So many bugfixes that i can't type them all on Discord.
Sword and soap added to campaign, several barrel/soap bugs solved, Untouchable cheevo bug fixed, buffed mortar/riveter, tweaked main menu and several more subtle stuff.

[weak cargo]

zmovement update

[unique trellis]

Probably the last, just some needed optimization

[weak cargo]

wasn't the last one the last? :p

[unique trellis]

In the last months I acquired some crucial knowledge that allowed for some nicer looking code

Think about it 3.1 except code looks better

I rewrote the entire bobbing yesterday and it is 100 times better

including the bunch of gunshot sounds i made

here's a cool preview of those

note: these are loud

It do be like that when you pick Tracer

[low thicket]

made a weapon anim, i haven't made one of these in a while

the uzi sprites are my own, they were made using a 3d model from an obscure f2p shooter i don't think anyone plays anymore

[unique trellis]

Decided to release my Tracer Recall imitation in case somebody wants to have some fun with it.

That animation is so bloody smooth, i love it.

[narrow wagon]

@low thicket that looks really great!

[low thicket]

more anim, here's a shotgun

@narrow wagon thanks!

[outer eagle]

[misty sparrow]

someone should make doom mod where its all weapons with no hands

just to trigger @wraith beacon

[wraith beacon]

Reeeeeee.

[near mortar]

Then make an addon for it that makes the hands gloomwood hands

Also @low thicket I would love to see a more "vanilla" flavored weapon pack mod using these weapon anims, sorta like Final Doomer or High Noon Drifter where the weapons are predominantly without alt-fire and instead tuned more for the gameplay. Just seems like fitting weapon anims for that sort of thing.
I hope someone comes along and asks your permission for that, or otherwise that you're doing something with them because it's great stuff

[hazy sorrel]

@misty sparrow @wraith beacon

I could accept Hideous Destructor a lot more if you didn't move like a morbidly obese 74 year old man with a bad chainsmoking habit

[hazy sorrel]

you cannot travel long distances well but there is no issue with regular levels

also you can use berserk to move insanely fast

[lean gyro]

No-handed weapons? In Doom?

Perhaps... DoomSplitters?

ULTRAKILL - WISHLIST ON STEAM (@ULTRAKILLGame)

More bang for your buckshot: An alternate arm with shotgun shells stored in the knuckles. Hold punch to blast them, sending nearby enemies flying.

There's a certain beauty to brute force, don't you think?

Can you use this to fist the shotgun shots for even more unlimited power?

[analog pollen]

nope, only the standard fist can parry attacks, so each arm has a unique role

[near mortar]

Fair enough

@analog pollen This means the other fists will have their own tech right?

[analog pollen]

hopefully

[hazy sorrel]

inb4 jab's bff bread will copyright that cuz he came up with the idea first

[analog pollen]

with what idea, having shotgun shells in a punch weapon?

cause Blaster Knuckle did that in the early 90's

[hazy sorrel]

damn they also stole his idea

With a timothy machine at that

been working on a new doom thing after a long hiatus

holy shit the video quality is bad

https://www.dropbox.com/s/39f19xz53q3xu25/lTFV07VYFQ.mp4?dl=0

sprites are all lifted from things but the code (barring edits of vanilla zdoom stuff) is mine

[near mortar]

Did you get permission where possible?

[sudden herald]

most of it's game rips or realm667 sprites, though the flamethrower is from an old wad xaser made

the plasma cannon's from the old weapon resource wad

just learning of the existence of Sonic Robo Blast 2

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ia097A0pKNM

i guess its doom engine, pretty amazing

[near mortar]

OG Doom Engine or do you mean GZDoom?

I assume you mean the latter because a lot of this crap appears blatantly impossible in the OG engine

I'd be impressed if they managed all this with those limitations

[rare surge]

the older versions of robo blast were modified versions of OG doom engine

since the earliest version was made in like '99 i think

[unique trellis]

Sonic Robot Blast is based on the Doom Legacy source por

No GZDoom

[rare surge]

the games technically impressive but honestly its not very good

[unique trellis]

I have heard good things about the kart spinoff

I have a bunch of friends that play it regularly

[prisma basalt]

sanic doom mod?

[unique trellis]

Unfortunately just like many other things in life it has been tainted by ultra weeb player sprites sets

[near mortar]

Noita was tainted like that almost immediately

Before modding support was even done

All good things are infested

[unique trellis]

There is no justice in this world

[coarse token]

just take a look at the l4d2 workshop

half of the mods are big titty anime girl reskins for zoey

@sudden herald What mod is that you're working on?

[sudden herald]

gzdoom based mod that's like a professionally done up send-off to old stupid joke wads i made back in like 2014-2015

the idea is that it'll have smash tv-esque gameplay where it's about hordes of weak enemies and slower bigger ones

just using vanilla maps as gameplay reference

[lean gyro]

If we're talking massive hordes, you know what would be great?

Turning all hitscan weapons into FastProjectile weapons, and applying short stun and knockback effects that scale with damage dealt.

Mowing down a horde of monsters is one thing, but making huge waves of corpses with a well-placed rocket is something else entirely.

[sudden herald]

rockets and stuff definitely are effective

i was gonna make the hitscanners projectiles originally but it didnt feel right

also enemies that use "hitscans" use the melee state at a limited range

i made a wad for the vinesauce contest that was a proof of concept for this

https://youtu.be/oQK965q1S10

first one in the vid

this one actually uses projectiles for player weapons but the same melee concept for enemies

[lean gyro]

Did you use projectiles, or FastProjectiles?

It genuinely makes a world of difference.

https://zdoom.org/wiki/Classes:FastProjectile

[sudden herald]

fastprojectiles lmao

[lean gyro]

[sudden herald]

i use it for other weapons in the current mod

the shotguns and stuff have goofy knockback so i think it's fine

[lean gyro]

I'm still learning, so you'll have to excuse me if I rattle off something stupid.

My ZScript probably looks nightmarish.

[sudden herald]

dont feel bad mine is super basic and still relies on decorate stuff a lot

i'm just good at making it look less hacky than it is lmao

this mod still uses SBARINFO because zscript huds terrify me

the most zscript stuff ive done is stuff that absolutely wouldnt be possible otherwise

or rely on launching ACS scripts per actor which would be eeeughhh

eg enemy hit flashing or universal non-state dependent trail/particle/whatever effects

[weak cargo]

more like

SATANBARINFO

[sudden herald]

SBARINFO is trash and it kinda makes me wanna sit down and learn how to do it in zs lmao

its really bad

i just wish the status bar stuff on the wiki was better documentws

[lean gyro]

I would love to know how to reconfigure the main menu itself, personally.

[sudden herald]

ok yeah i just looked up forum guides and this looks so much better jesus

you can just kinda grab all sorts of variables and shit

without relying on overly specific functiona

[unique trellis]

SBARINFO is the worst lumo ever coded for zdoom

ZScript HUDS are so much better

DrawText
DrawBar
DrawTexture

That's it

I would love to know how to reconfigure the main menu itself, personally.
That requires editing Menu classes

It will be painful at first impact and will get better later

It will be painful because ZScript documentation is bad and what little there is is mostly absolutely unhelpful

[sudden herald]

how do i get drawstring to just print out normal text

[unique trellis]

normal text is a relative concept

Define "normal text"

[sudden herald]

if i just want it to say like something stupid "ass" unchangably

a basic string

just doing it to test

i got my hud box images up and running but idk what the drawimage flags are

[unique trellis]

First you need to initialize your font

HUDFont MyNormalFont;

Override void Init()
{
    [...]
    MyNormalFont = HUDFont.Create("FONT_NAME", fnt.GetCharWidth("0"), Mono_CellLeft);
}```

[sudden herald]

i have the one from the doom statusbar up

[lean gyro]

How feasible is main menu modding in GZDoom without creating a whole new branch?

[unique trellis]

native void DrawString(HUDFont font, String string, Vector2 pos, int flags = 0, int translation = Font.CR_UNTRANSLATED, double Alpha = 1., int wrapwidth = -1, int linespacing = 4, Vector2 scale = (1, 1));

These are the values for DrawString

Self explanatory except the flags

[lean gyro]

Like, let's say you wanted to replace the text strings of the main menu with basic, static images. Is that feasible? 🤔

[sudden herald]

yeah but when I type anything into the string part nothing comes up

do i have to go through the entire thing or something

it works if i use FormatNumber(CPlayer.health, 3)

[unique trellis]

The flags are listed in file zscript/ui/statusbar/statusbar.zs

enum DI_Flags

I am not going to paste 200 lines of code here

[sudden herald]

if i just type DrawString(mHUDFont, "FUCK", (80, -32)); nothing happens

[unique trellis]

Of course it doesn't

you have no defined the origin of you position

You need to add flags

It is drawing it outside the screen

[lean gyro]

Whoops, missed an earlier message because I'm a fucking dumbass.

[unique trellis]

DrawString(mHUDFont,"Fuck",(0,0),DI_SCREEN_HCENTER|DI_SCREEN_TOP);

Try this

[sudden herald]

yeah not knowing the flags really really doesn't help

[unique trellis]

That is why I told you where to find them

The thing I wrote will use the top center as the origin for your desired potion

(0, 10) will draw slightly below the top of the screen

Editing a menu will be more difficult the more complex things you wanna do

Adding a static background only require Screen.DrawTexture

A background that does not change depending on the resolution

[lean gyro]

A background that changes would be much more difficult, I'm assuming.

[unique trellis]

No it is the default

And you only need to add a StaticPatch in the menudef

[lean gyro]

I mean, like, reacts to player input (i.e. changing based on what is hovered over).

[unique trellis]

i rewrote all the menus to always look the same regardless of the resolution chosen and that took the most effort.

By default the menus are initialized in the GZDoom boot resolution 640x480 iirc

[lean gyro]

Did you make positions and sizes relative to resolution?

[unique trellis]

Therefore will look tiny at high res and gigantic at small

[sudden herald]

oh shit i missed the message sorry

the flags i mean

[unique trellis]

I have used a feature that says: draw things on screen as they would look at a certain reslution

[lean gyro]

While I have absolutely no idea how to practically do such a thing, I would focus on designing the menu according to the aspect ratio, and separate resolution scaling from that.
