Same was with me but with the Minecraft community in 2020/2021, now in 2024 I've got my Cambridge Lower certification, which is for common English, and in Sunday I'm going for the Michigan Certification in Proficiency English also known as the ECPE (Exam Certification on Proficiency English).

I did the same with you but with discord servers instead, interacting with people more familiar with the language than me was what helped me most to learn the language fluently!

I've heard the languages are pretty similar. If they send you an article, are you able to understand the gist of it or non at all?

I feel you, I was also afraid to speak English thinking I would be judged

Isn't Dutch also a bit close to German?

Same with me except replace Spanish with French and Italian. I never really liked the French language because of its accent and some of its weird words. I'm doing Italian now in school and I was interested at first, but now I don't bother with it at all. Don't think I will bother either learning another language for the time being, English and Greek are fine for now. Speaking of Greek, in school, you are forced to learn ancient Greek, a lesson I despise because of how hard it is, there's so many stuff you have to learn and remember by heart and I wish it wasn't mandatory, there's nothing I have been able to remember and I never will. Luckily for me, this lesson goes along with Euripides's Helen, and since I get good grades with this, it saves me from the bad grades of Ancient Greek.

Ah German, I was always fascinated by that language and its use of constants being so absurd that some words sound like you are choking.

I want to hear your experiences with learning a new language or dialect, whether that would be English, French, German and all the rest. Were there any difficulties or any particular aspects of it that you liked or disliked such as vocabulary, grammar, accent, etc. Any awkward moments in your journey of learning that language that you still look back to this day and cringe at these moments or laugh? Has it proven to be useful in your daily life (work, school, living, etc.) or was it a complete waste of time? I'll share some of my experiences as a Greek person learning English. Growing up, I never had much of an issue with the language as I was exposed to it young from different media and such. Most of my issues with it were with advanced vocabulary, some words had such an odd pronunciation and writing that I couldn't believe they were real words, some I thought were just made to piss off people, like the word "queue" being pronounced as just "Q". My only other issue that still bothers me is my accent, sometimes I just hate to speak in English because of how bad it sounds at some parts, the word "literally" has been a pain in the ass to pronounce correctly. I remember when I like 10? I had gone to my Godfather's house, who's from Scotland and needed to put somewhere my jacket, so after a good 3 minutes of constructing my sentence, I ask "Where is the hooker to put my coat in". This made perfect sense to me as a kid, a hooker is something that you *hook* your clothes at, not a sex worker. Of course he understood what I was trying to say and corrected me by telling me it was called a Coat Hanger, once I learnt the definition, I laughed my ass off, that's probably what the adults were laughing at back then... I don't blame them one bit. That's it for me, I would love to hear your difficulties, experiences and moments with languages you were learning!

Hmm that's something interesting, perhaps a custom ENDOOM graphic too sometime?

Ok so i did some testing with it. I noticed that some maps didn't have PSX music when using the addon, Map 02 had the normal music that would play on Map 01 and Map 09 still used Into Retrowave's City even with the PSX addon and there are some others that i cant tell if they are using normal music or not, mainly because I'm not neither familiar with the community midi packs used in the masterpack nor Aubrey Hodges's work. So uh, you might want to check this I guess? Unless it is intentional, considering the addons are still in alpha.

I installed the update and in the zip files, there's no data.zip. Was it removed or something?

Ayyyyyy, was the issue with the 25th anniversary midi pack skybox fixed?

i also tested it with classic one and it was the same error. Also, the BFG wads are compatible to play with the wad, they are not compatible when using them to build the wad

I also tested DSDA and it tells me it just cant find SKY4 and MSKY4

This is what happens with GZDoom... hey a nice bright blue sky :D
