[h3]Welcome back once again... Today we bring an update for all the [b]WORTHY[/b] playing DUSK in 2024. Updates to both the [b]DUSK SDK[/b] and [b]DUSK HD[/b] (with more soon to come)[/h3] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/26345927/6d53b960da829c3fa71baa864c8c85a06a1c5a13.png[/img] The [b]DUSK SDK[/b] is getting a sizeable update today! With better Quake and Half Life map support as well as the ability to make [b]ENDLESS LEVELS[/b], fixing some major bugs and advanced music scripting! [u][h2]New Entities[/h2][/u] [h3]info_playlist[/h3] Creates a music playlist. Give this entity a targetname, and assign a sequence of music tracks by setting track0, track1, and so on to music file paths. [h3]trigger_playlist[/h3] Activates a music playlist. Set the target to the targetname of an info_playlist entity, then trigger the trigger_playlist in order to begin playback. You can set shuffle to 1 to enable shuffling of the playlist, and loop to 1 to cause the playlist to loop. When a playlist is looping, you can use a trigger_changemusic trigger to stop it. [h3]point_template[/h3] Used for creating enemy templates that are later spawned with a trigger. Refer to the Source point_template documentation for further details. DUSK additionally supports specifying teleportfx 1 to spawn teleporter particles on each enemy spawned. [h3]info_endless_node[/h3] This entity will trigger its target when a new wave begins, if the current wave is greater than or equal to its first_wave property. The last_wave property can be used to disable an info_endless_node starting from a specific wave. [h3]trigger_remove_target[/h3] This entity will immediately delete any entities it is targeting when it is triggered. [code][h3]You can now create Custom endless maps by setting endless to 1 in worldspawn Enemy template entities also require an endless property set to 1 on them in order to be tracked as endless wave enemies [/h3][/code] [u][h2]Fixes/Changes[/h2][/u][list] [*] Fixed memory leak when finishing a custom level [*] Fixed fence texture rendering for embedded BSP textures [*] Game will now default to D3D11 instead of OpenGLCore [*] Fixed load order buttons in modding menu [*] Fixed .ent files not being loaded [/list] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/26345927/52f665d8c678b58564483b120302c672007da3d1.png[/img] [h3]As for [b]DUSK HD[/b]: Garumin has been a busy boy!
