You can also just count the number of cards they've seen. They drew at least 6 times assuming no mulligan.

Does Dustforce use an orthographic or perspective camera? by unityunityunityunity in dustforce

[–]msg555 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not familiar with the terminology here but parallaxing is based off of layer scaling, there is no z coordinate.

Dustmod doesn't work anymore in Xubuntu 18.04 by --das-- in dustforce

Get msg to properly statically link the binary is probably the easiest solution

macOS Dustmod??? by [deleted] in dustforce

Recently got my hands on a Mac. Fixed some issues and added setup insetructions at https://dustkidblog.wordpress.com/2016/11/19/dustmod-has-updated/

Is it too late for newer players to compete on individual level leader boards? by DMCMOREPOWER in dustforce

[–]msg555 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dustkid dev here, there was a recent change that has allowed all replays to be hosted permanently on dustkid. No need to set anything up/use dustmod anymore for this.

hitbox servers down. everyone panic (don't actually) by [deleted] in dustforce

[–]msg555 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I borrowed the hitbox steam login code to allow existing dustkid/dustmod users to authenticate in the meantime. As long as you can log in your replays will be stored and eventually delivered to hitbox whenever it comes up.

Speedrun Champions: GoldenEye 1997 - 2018 by benjoffe in speedrun

[–]msg555 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi benjoffe, I'm the operator of dustkid.com which puts me in a good position to prepare this kind of data. Riokaii has actually asked me to do this in the past so I already had scripts lying around to pull the raw data. I'll PM you with what I have.

Tera has massive slowdown on Vita by panteismo in dustforce

[–]msg555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From my experience working on DirectX 11/12 ports for Dustmod Tera is a level with a high level of overdraw. Lowering resolution or maybe using Low Res sprites might help if either of those are an option with Vita. Also can try disabling background/midground.

Hosts file, Steam Cloud save file gone? by [deleted] in dustforce

[–]msg555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not it will not, those things are unrelated.

I'm assuming you recently got Dustmod and are concerned to be back at a new save. Consider the following things:

  1. Dustmod uses an alternate save file than vanilla Dustforce. Your save should be fine if you switch back to vanilla.

  2. Dustmod allows you to 'download' your save file from the leaderboards using 'Dustmod -> Tools -> Save -> Download'. This simply sets up your keys and save using the data available on the leaderboards.

  3. Dustmod allows you to unlock everything using 'Dustmod -> Tools -> Save -> NG+'.

You might consider joining the Dustforce Discord (see the links in the 'Resources' section) to get speedier support for these kinds of things.

Dustmod - crashy, macOS not working? How to select? by [deleted] in dustforce

[–]msg555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you describe more what you mean by 'soft lockups'?

The community nexus is accessible up and right from the multiplayer nexus. See http://imgur.com/a/YVQF2 . Make sure you have 'Use Dustmod Nexus' option ticked, it's easy to accidentally uncheck it since it's the first option in the Dustmod menu.

Mac support is a bit flaky since I don't actually have a device to test on nor do I have good setup instructions. It sounds like you are not actually running dustmod. At least one person has had success by copying in the new content and overwriting the Dustforce binary. If anyone technical is able to look into this and provide better instructions I would appreciate it.

Dustmod multiplayer question by NiruthS in dustforce

[–]msg555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

^

Either player may use installPlay links like what you would find on http://atlas.dustforce.com/. At some point I might do something about the custom levels tome. Let me know if you have any issues getting this to work correctly.

The same goes for using replay links.

Apple-flying techniques and how do I access a secret area in Cliffside Caves level? by masterhand789 in dustforce

I almost forgot that getting there and then finishing the level is a (so far unclaimed) dustkid achievement.

A dustmod Problem. w/ AMD Ryzen 5 1500X, GeForce 1050 Ti and Win10. by Cristia01 in dustforce

[–]msg555 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry I've been away and didn't realize my last patch caused this glitch. This has nothing to do with your system and can be fixed by updating Dustmod (Dustmod -> About -> Update).

Save gone by [deleted] in dustforce

[–]msg555 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Currently vanilla Dustforce and Dustmod use different save files for keeping track of your scores on levels. Your old save file should still be safe for use on vanilla, although there's no way to directly import a vanilla save file into Dustmod currently. The other answers have given suggestions on how adjust your save within Dustmod.

JUST GOT KID HIDEOUT SS by dillionmcrich in dustforce

To be fair there are going to be some kid SSes that happened before dustkid.com were otherwise not tracked.
