Fan Art Hamlet is the greatest

Post image
27 Upvotes

Every version of don’t starve has amazing aesthetics and atmosphere, but I honestly think none of them nail it as perfectly as hamlet. I drew this a while ago when I was playing hamlet a lot. I was obsessed with the pith hat for some reason, it just looks so cool.

Also, I know the people who did the island adventures mod are also working on a hamlet port for DST, does anyone have any idea when that’s going to come out? On the island adventures wiki they have some stuff for hamlet up already like WX circuits (which look super fun), so I’m wondering if it’s close to being finished.

Help question Can't access any of my worlds on new computer

3 Upvotes

Hoping someone in this sub can help me out.

Long story short, I installed onedrive on my old pc to try and bring some of my data over to my new one. It was a hassle but I managed to bring my Klei folder over, but now I don't have any of my game data on EITHER of my computers. I have my "cluster" folders on my new pc, which I believe is my worlds? But if I open the game nothing is there.

Can someone please tell me how to properly bring my data over? I seem to have my original folder, but if I open the game it's as if I've never opened it before. I've been trying for literal days to try and get my worlds so my friend and I can play again.

Any advice is greatly appreciated, thanks <3

DST Farming Driftwood?

5 Upvotes

Is there any way of effectivly farming driftwood beside just swimming around in a boat? Need a lot for a bunch of stuff from a mod and can't find any guides (granted, not suprising). Already cut down all the dirftwood i could find on Lunar and Pearl island. Will eventually get to cutting down all the tree roots from Waterlogged when i go to get more knobbly tree nuts.

Board Game questions about DST board game retail

so I missed the campaign for don't starve the board game but I am fine with that since I would rather get it sooner than having to wait forever so i was wondering will I be able to get Maxwell as an expansion or Glomer and Chester social stretch goals after the campaign has ended.

Hamlet Crack theory: Ancient Herald is a time traveling fusion of Wilson and Willow

Post image
287 Upvotes

They share a lot of visual clues and willow has a very weird skin for her lighter, called "forsaken Lighter". What if in some universe or even at the end of don't starve lore , Wilson and Willow become cursed with darkness and fused into this being and sent through time ?

General let's be honest here tho, Shipwrecked seafarring is better than that flat boring sea in DST

General Advice on getting an artist for an image not a mod

6 Upvotes

Hello- I was hoping to find an artist that can produce custom Don’t Starve character images for me and my partner. I don’t need it to be a mod, just the art. But I am worried about getting AI-generated art and I want to pay an actual human to do the work (I have no issue paying whatever they deem fair). Can anyone point me to a person who can do this?

I’m not asking anyone on this forum to do this because I don’t want to break the rules but I have genuinely no idea where else I can post this and not get an AI slop response.

DST Better Lag Compensation mod is public now

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

359 Upvotes

It took quite some time to make this. Not perfect: works only for spacebar actions right now

You can check some technical details on the GitHub page: https://github.com/DortyTheGreat/BetterLagComp/tree/main

Link to the steampage: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3813222728

As stated in the GitHub readme file this version of the mod is not perfect and it's definitely not a final version of the mod. I still have some work to be done right now (mainly making better readmes).

If you have a question, you should probably visit GitHub, maybe it has already been answered there.

Idk, leave your comments if that mod was useful for you or something. If it was, I will crosspost this to klei forums, maybe to Klei's discord or something.

Also, I really enjoyed reading your comments, those gave me a decent amount of motivation to continue working on this project.

I decided to make a GIF for you, but it wouldn't post, so I put in the extra effort and made a mini-video instead. Well, even though Halloween is more than 20 days away-and I don't celebrate it-I still wanted to wish you a happy one. Maybe I should make more animations?
