By the way that rib cage isn't the in-game model, but just part of the process to make the final low polygon version

worldly aspen
#

so clearcoat is a BSDF shader meant to expedite eyeball surfaces; the iris is a complex structure underneath the aquous humor and cornea. The effect in real life is that it looks like a complicated texture around the iris, but underneath a flat shiny outer surface. The reason it won't work on the meat is because the reflective surface sits on top of the normal map instead of obeying it. With clearcoat applied, it looks like meat trapped in a blob of epoxy

#

also this is all in Blender, and Dusk uses URP (universal Render Pipeline) which doesn't have this shader in it's Lit material definitions

honest stag
#

i saw that

worldly aspen
#

I'm fun at parties I swear.

broken shadow
#

I would say the clearcoated meat looks like roblox lava

ancient depot
#

URP is being considered for the SDK though

worldly aspen
#

oh right... that makes sense. Right Unity defaults to standard, but you can change to URP or HDRP (cross-platform or good graphics)

ancient depot
#

When DUSK first released, URP (or LWRP as it was called at the time) had existed for about 9 days

bold orbit
#

Wasn't it also technically unfinished

#

For like a solid year

brisk oasis
#

💀

gritty forge
#

Anyone know where and how dusk stores it’s textures for enemies? I need em

ancient depot
#

In the SDK they're in mnt/local/dusk/textures

#

For other versions of the game, you will need to use a Unity game ripping tool such as AssetRipper

plush hemlock
plush hemlock
#

is it that new? lmao

#

would porting it from standard to URP cause some performance issues? just curious to know

ancient depot
#

Performance improvements if anything, assuming it was done properly

plush hemlock
#

oh nice ohyes

#

the switch port is also using the standard? or URP

ancient depot
#

Standard

#

None of our games use SRP in any form currently

plush hemlock
#

now they all use HDRP leonthink

ancient depot
#

I could complain for hours about how I think the separation between URP and HDRP is a poor design but I will choose not to

plush hemlock
#

I still think that changing from URP to HDRP in my other team's own project was a bit of a mistake ohyes

#

we learned that the hard way

#

Port dusk to the Nintendo 3DS

bold orbit
#

I mean

#

Unity does exist for the 3ds

#

It would probably run fine

#

The issue would be scene changes

ancient depot
#

The 3DS branch of the engine was discontinued quite a while ago

#

So there's no legal way to do a 3DS port anymore

bold orbit
#

Not unless you still have access to the branch

ancient depot
#

Even then you can't really do much with it, since Nintendo disallows publishing with old Unity versions

#

That was particularly annoying for the Switch port at first

bold orbit
#

3ds games are still being released using Unity

Silver Falls has 2 coming out as a recent example
But that might be because they negotiated with nintendo before the shutdown date was announced

ancient depot
#

Could be

If I ever finish that quake demake of dusk for the PSP I could just move it to the 3ds quake branch

Originally released in April of 2020 as Veven's debut map, Lower leads players through an industrial complex crawling with cultists. ep1/ep2 enemies abound. Fans have been craving a sequel for years to finally tie up the map pack and bring closure to the narrative. Though pre-production screen shots have been shared by the author nothing is yet to materialize

Hello i haven't been following closely, but if Dusk SDK is just now coming out, what have people been using to mod it up till now?

crisp raven
#

The SDK has been in Alpha for a few years

#

It's just a version of Dusk that can run mods

#

We use third party software to make maps

topaz pewter
#

Like trenchbroom?

crisp raven
#

Yes

amber abyss
#

can anyone explain to me about the dusk goodies?

ocean bane
#

can dusk sdk change models?

#

if so i plan to replace every monster with monika its been like an idea for 2 years now

#

but not like everything with the same monika model, but cultist and wendigo monikas

crisp raven
#

You can change most of the models

#

Not leathernecks however

alpine depot
#

yeah a few models are still not replaceable yet, like nyarlathotep leatherneck and the turret

i think theres another one but i forgor 💀

I was thinking of making a mini game for dusk were everyone is one hp on a tilting platform and given a sword

#

Does anyone know what texture(s) The Farm's skybox uses?

#

I'm not sure if it's skybox2 or skyboxgreen or something else

honest stag
#

Its not in the files in the same form as in unity

#

Cuz it's one of the skies but tinted green inside of unity

weak cloud
#

So it's probably skyboxgreen but then edited to look the way it does in unity?

honest stag
#

i believe it's this

#

but green

#

well that and all the other relevant files

weak cloud
#

Ah, I see. Thanks for the insight.

#

So I take it this is kind of approaching the effect that they were going for?

honest stag
#

are you trying to make that sky in unity or as a mod for dusk

#

cuz i have that skybox as a unity sky

#

ok the bot muted me for that

weak cloud
#

That's incredibly helpful, thank you so much

honest stag
#

but that's the actual sky

#

BUT

weak cloud
#

Sorry, didn't want you to get muted

honest stag
#

it's tinted with this color

weak cloud
#

I see, that's very helpful

#

Appreciate it!

pearl moss
#

how do i mod dusk (ping me in replies)

honest stag
#

The sdk isn't complete amd we don't have full modding capabilities but theres plenty already

pearl moss
#

with animations

honest stag
#

Not doable right now

pearl moss
honest stag
#

Can replace most enemies tho

#

and the full sdk is coming soon ™️

pearl moss
#

custom hud?

honest stag
#

nah

pearl moss
#

bruh

honest stag
#

in fact it'll be easier for me to give u a rundown of what you CAN do

pearl moss
#

what can you do then?

honest stag
#

enemy model replacement
sound replacement
texture replacement
custom levels (with pretty extensive functionality)

#

last one being the most interesting part if u ask me

pearl moss
#

i want to make a custom level where you are taco bell food and you are entering a stomach and killing tapeworms

honest stag
#

sounds easy enough

#

we cant make enemies function differently but you can take an existing one and replace the model

#

a goat would suit that just fine lol

pearl moss
#

in a few hours i will ask you about how to make it, rn im making status faces

honest stag
#

if you're talkin about the level - the officially supported tool is called Trenchbroom, it's a level editor for quake
very easy to use

eternal spear
#

Do you need any knowledge in coding to use trenchbroom and import the maps into Dusk?
Been interested in making maps for quite a while but actually making maps feels like an incredibly intimidating task to me

honest stag
#

No

honest stag
#

but no you dont need any coding knowledge

eternal spear
honest stag
#

it took me 15 minutes from setting up trenchbroom to make this

#

which is kinda dogshit obv but still

#

that was my first time ever using a level editor years ago

#

not doing any modding before

weak cloud
#

Is it possible to open any of Dusk's stock maps in a map/level editor?

honest stag
#

No, but you can check them out via using something like assetripper

#

which is something i myself have done

#

unity view only tho

#

is there any specific info you're looking for?

#

mayb i can help

weak cloud
#

Sure, can I DM you?

honest stag
#

aye

weak cloud
#

#

Hello, i just want to ask when it comes to modding DUSK is there a way to do Wave Survival levels? (For the Survival gamemode), or is this mostly custom campaigns so far?

honest stag
#

Nope

#

Cant do em yet

#

Well

#

nothing is stopping you from making the level but you cant make it functional survival yet

#

You can do a bootleg "endless" but it'll be limited

it's really cool

it's a shame it lacks some tools to make more complicated geometry with ease

like circular or curved shapes

have to really jump through some hoops to do it

and how quickly you can make blockouts and that kinda stuff

Im having some trouble with envirnomental lighting. all the other lights in the map work, but the outside is pitch black

#

Is there a way to fix this?

honest stag
#

what light entity are you using for outside light

toxic cosmos
#

light_envirnoment

honest stag
#

i dont think those are supported

toxic cosmos
#

ah

honest stag
#

for outside lighting i recommend you use a combination of _sunlight and _sunlight2

#

lemme pull up a guide on how to use these

toxic cosmos
#

aight ima try that

#

tnx

honest stag
#

before you start, you need sky brushes - basically a block in the sky that works as a celling with a texture that has to start with sky

to have that brush emit sunglight - have a light entity with a property _sun set to 1, and make it target any info_null entity
all the properties of your light entity will be what the sky brushes emit in the same direction as the sun is targeting the info_null
but if you want your map to have both sunlight and avoid awful pitch black shadows, you also need _sunlight2 as a property on worldspawn
the value of it will determine it's intensity (works the same as light intensity on normal lights), and _sunlight2_color does exactly what you think it does, changes the color of this ambient light

#

illustration of how sky brushes emit sunlight

#

what _sunlight2 does is put an ambient light on all outside areas basically

#

so it goes hand in hand with your normal sunlight

#

try setting it up and if u got any questions shoot me a dm or send em here

toxic cosmos
#

Il try that

#

It fucking worked!

#

Is there a way to make a trigger active only after picking up an item? like for instance you walk into a room (the doorway has a trigger, but its not active so nothing happens), then you pick up a key, which activates the trigger, and the trigger is only pressed when you go through the door again.

#

fyi I am trying to make an ambush

honest stag
#

oh man it's been a while since i mapped for dusk but i think you may be able to parent triggers

#

parenting has completely left my mind on how it's done but i think i should be able to find some info

toxic cosmos
#

Il have to look that up too

honest stag
#

ok yea parenting triggers is a thing i think

#

i'll explain thebest i can but my memory is fuzzy

#

ok i remember

#

so, this is gonna be a little confusing but here we go

#

while we cant (to my knowledge) do trigger activation, we can instead hide the trigger underground and move it upwards to the place you want it to be in

this is doable via the following setup

You'll need to have a func_door hidden outside, your trigger you want to move, and the trigger that will start the whole thing (a target string on the key should work)

First, make the door and the trigger brushes match each other in size
place the door in such a way that it would move down and make the trigger follow it's movements, making the trigger land in the doorway where you want it to
for example, i'll show a similar setup

#

i have this doorway i want to fill in with a trigger....

#

so i placed a door and a trigger above them
the door will move down and take the trigger with it, while being out of view and letting the trigger fill the doorway

#

but now we actually need to make the trigger move with the said door

#

let's start with the simple

#

i connect the key to the door, so when you touch the key - the door opens

#

the door has a targetname OOBDoor, and i'll use it now for parenting the trigger to the door

#

put a propery "parentname" on your trigger and set the door's targetname as the value

#

i THINK that should do it

toxic cosmos
#

Thank you very much!

#

youre knowlege is very helpful, and if I ever finish my map I will make sure to ad a supersecret in your name

honest stag
#

thanks lol but dont thank me yet, test it first

toxic cosmos
#

yea ima get on that

#

looks like its gonna take a while

blissful lion
#

if you dont stand in the trigger when you want to make it active you can just use func wall toggle

#

also put the skip texture on the door

toxic cosmos
#

omg it worked!

honest stag
#

nice, still got it

toxic cosmos
#

noice

#

i made a test version, now its time to work it into the level

toxic cosmos
#

the wall that opens at the end was what I needed the trigger parent for

i cross posetd in the wrong place, sorry bout that.

#

so im making a dusk arcade cabinet using one of those premade kits and making it really scuffed.

#

i am making a set of maps and a full retexture that makes dusk into a wierd horror game version of polybius

#

also has subliminal text as the damage overlay that basically convinces you you are a loser

#

but in anycase!

#

wondering if anyone has a copy of the sdk for dusk so i can load everything in to my raspberry pi? the cabinet also has a six hour battery so if the power goes out, it still runs

honest stag
#

i have a google drive of it but it might be outdated

#

it's far from being a full sdk

#

you should contact @ancient depot or @still raptor

sorry for the double ping lol

#

no voice commentary tho it's late

#

@crisp raven Just played your Cold is the void map, gon drop some feedback and upload the vid after i play the second one
firstly, it obviously looks fucking incredible, huge props to that
i like that it's short and sweet, but also utilizes all of it's available space to the fullest
it's a shame the boneballs lack proper AI but it's not your fault lmao
it was hard to tell where i was at times even in such a small place, as each corner of the map looked pretty much exactly like the opposite one, so i often had to do laps around the place to find a spot that i needed
encounters are good, but im personally not a fan of horrors in general combat due to how damn annoying and unpredictable they can be, but overall very good balance, had close calls that i was able to pull through

#

I didn't find the secret sadly

honest stag
#

@crisp raven Holy shit, i played your Collapse and Decay map and i am in absolute awe

#

this might just be some of the best level design i have ever seen to come out of dusk mapping and im not saying that lightly

#

visually i found the map to be pretty simple, but HOLY christ the sheer amount of thought and effort that must have went into making such an interconnected map must be absolutely insane

#

im seriously shocked at just how well it plays

#

and ALL the encounters felt fair

#

every single one

#

and they were actually fun

#

like, im baffled how i never ever got lost in a level so complex is this, yet 100% realised that it's insanely interwoven

#

i honestly dont have much else to say, absolutely spectacular job, uploading both videos now

honest stag
#

@blissful lion Just played your map and im pretty sure i've already playtested this lmao

and i think my previous feedback applies here as well

no need for /dusk

just do it as if you have a music folder

blissful lion
#

honest stag
#

idk i find it convinient

blissful lion
#

yeah ig

half dust
#

How do you set combat music?

blissful lion
#

trigger_changemusic

half dust
#

Oh, you have to use triggers?

blissful lion
#

you cant make it so it plays when enemies are around

#

vanilla dusk doesnt do that

#

you can have a trigger_count to trigger the ambient track when all the enemies are dead

half dust
#

That's what I was thinking

#

Not bad

honest stag
#

and yea keep in mind that trigger_changemusic isnt like trigger_once or whatever
you have to actually target it with something for it to active, like another trigger

#

it wont activate on it's own when you pass through

#

iirc

#

been a while

blissful lion

ok fixed i think

blissful lion
#

it looks sooo cool, the arena design is really interesting, but the combat isnt fun for me

#

prolly because it just drops you in with no weapons, then all the weapons i got after werent the ones id use in that situation

#

and most enemies didnt fit imo: horrors and wendigos should be used in more closed quarters environments, and dont forget the boneballs are broken so they fly away annoyingly

#

but as i said, very fun arena design, ill maybe make an arena horde mode type of map sometime

So how advanced is the SDK? Like can I add weapons and models into the game or is it mostly replacing textures, Adding maps and such?

You can replace textures. replace the models of most enemies and add maps. But you cannot add weapons or do any scripting

I'm working on a Faith 64 mod, so I was hoping I could do a little scripting to add a cross

No

#

Dusk actually predates CSGO and TF2

#

Being made in 1996 and all, with it only having been popularized by New Blood's 2018 remaster of the game, people often forget that Dusk is actually the first instance of video game microtransaction in the industry, by a long period of time too! As the next instance, the horse armor from Oblivion, was a whopping 10 years later!

#

It’s always great to have a legacy system

worldly aspen
# high magnet No

Oh yeah I remember reading a thing about when Psygnosis licensed an early prototype of the Quake Engine after David Lawson met Carmack at GDC way back, and started working on Dusk, but the working title was "Backwoods massacre" back then. Struggled like hell to get it to work, and they had to pester ID troubleshooters just to get the pixel-renderer to work. But it turned out to be a great testing ground for the company, despite mediocre sales.
