Welcome to the GMK Dracula Interest Check thread! ▓▒░

Introducing GMK Dracula, a keyset based on the glorious Dracula Theme (https://draculatheme.com/) color-scheme. GMK Dracula turns the software aesthetic into keyboard keyset form, expanding the theme even further with add-on modules. The set features dark greyish blue tones with dark blue-purple-gray alphas. The default legend color is a contrasting neutral/cool white, which adds to the overall legibility of the classic text + icon legends. In addition, the Core and add-on modules include legends and accent keys in various pastel and neon colors, all based on selected Dracula Theme colors.



Update [2019-09-17]


Good news everyone! Update time—finally! The group buy for GMK Dracula is launching on October 4th on Dixie Mech, Mykeyboard.eu, Daily Clack Dracc Dracc Dracc!, and iLumkb!
There are three new kits, see below! All of the existing kits have received updates as well.

Modules

Core【 MODULE】

The Core Module is the starting point of the set, featuring classic multicolored syntax highlighting of the Dracula Theme. The module offers compatibility for most layouts, while keeping the cost down by not bloating the kit with too much options.

Colors

The colors are to be matched as close to the Dracula Theme colors as possible using custom colors, the base colors are very dark grayish blue. A GMK stock color may be used for the white alpha legend color.
The plan is to match the colors to Pantones first, then order plastic color chips, which GMK can then match their plastics to. I think this method allows for a great range of colors to choose from, but still retains the color matching accuracy with plastic chips from Pantone.

A color comparison with other popular/similar GMK sets:

▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓ COLOR_COMPARISON.md ▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓
├── The colors are represented as accurately as possible using the correct color codes, using neutral lighting.
└── The second version has a neutral background color instead of a stylized one for an even more accurate comparison, as perception of color is relative to the surroundings after all.

Dracula is a great color scheme and this is a nice homage to it. Obviously this will be in competition with Nord and Oblivion, which is fine. This one brings some nice innovation to the table with the highlight and error kits. Good job.

That said, I think the renders have more of a purple cast than I expected. Maybe it's just an optical illusion.

Any chance we could sneak a 1.25u R3 key into one of the side kits for the 40% crowd? I'm sure there are at least a few people out there who'd pick up a novelty kit if it also meant they could get 40s keys. It might be fitting in the Error kit (either 40s are an error, or you appeal to the programmer 40% user) as long as it doesn't jack up the price too much.
Title: Re: [IC] GMK Dracula
Post by: zekkin on Wed, 15 May 2019, 22:14:21
I would recommend looking into RAL to match colors -- I think GMK has been having a lot of good results by going with RAL matching instead of Pantone matching. Otherwise this set is looking good, really love how it looks.
Title: Re: [IC] GMK Dracula
Post by: hineybush on Wed, 15 May 2019, 23:00:42
yea this is pretty fresh. check out SP for color codes, you might be able to get some really close with the ABS chips and GMK can match those pretty well.
Title: Re: [IC] GMK Dracula

I think OP says in the first post TODO section that they're going to add a 40s kit :D

Post by: LightningXI on Thu, 16 May 2019, 03:20:29
Would you consider the following suggestions?

- Consider adding one more 1u Alt and 1u Ctrl bottom-row keys for consistency of HHKB layout.
 - Consider adding 1.5u bottom-row Super keys for HHKB layout consistency (using 1.5u keys programmed as the OS key)

 - Consider using R5 as the bottom-row profile -- molds are available for different modifier sizes now, thanks to Carbon R2!

- Consider adding one more 1u Alt and 1u Ctrl bottom-row keys for consistency of HHKB layout.
- Consider adding 1.5u bottom-row Super keys for HHKB layout consistency (using 1.5u keys programmed as the OS key)

Not for a meme's sake, but looking at alphas made me realize for some reason the letters and base color remind me of glow in dark yellowish/white fonts.

I don't know if this was ever done, but is there any chance the letter parts on caps can be glow in dark doubleshot? Lol

So cool you thought about that and contacted GMK about it, too!

Looking forward to glow in dark doubleshot one day TM. Lol

But in all seriousness I was genuinely curious as I believed it has a potential to be an end-game(said nobdy ever) killer set with GID effect.

Well, maybe for GMK Dracula R2 GID.  :thumb:

But yeah, this is the best IC I've seen- can't imagine how much time you've probably had to spend to write them all up.

Well thought out group buy with great kits!

Personally I think the colours are a bit off. There is too much red/purple in the base colour. It should be a dark blue.

If anyone wants to check out this theme to see what it looks like it has a lot of compatibility and is usually very easy to install:

https://draculatheme.com/

Also I personally would prefer it to have mods and alphas with the same base colour. It would separate it from the other IDE theme based GMK sets as well as being more faithful to the theme.

Title: Re: [IC] GMK Dracula
Post by: OtherAndrew on Fri, 17 May 2019, 13:31:43
yea this is pretty fresh. check out SP for color codes, you might be able to get some really close with the ABS chips and GMK can match those pretty well.

I would recommend looking into RAL to match colors -- I think GMK has been having a lot of good results by going with RAL matching instead of Pantone matching. Otherwise this set is looking good, really love how it looks.

- Consider adding one more 1u Alt and 1u Ctrl bottom-row keys for consistency of HHKB layout.
- Consider adding 1.5u bottom-row Super keys for HHKB layout consistency (using 1.5u keys programmed as the OS key)

seconding these, also consider removing numpad sublegends

Here's a Q&A of selected previous replies. I can't answer to every single reply, but I really appreciate everyone's feedback and comments nonetheless.

Q&A Pages 1–2

More
This is a really nicely formatted IC. I'd definitely be up for checking out the GB post if it happens.

This really warms my heart <3 I had the biggest smile when reading this one :) I spent hours just sending PM's to myself iterating the IC post to get it just right.

… I think the renders have more of a purple cast than I expected. Maybe it's just an optical illusion.

You might be right, I probably need to adjust the white balance on the renders some more.

Love everything about this except for the wacky coloured mods. I'm just not big on that at all, for any set, it almost works here but still. Great set though honestly.

That's exactly why the Nightmode Module exists, silly :)

yea this is pretty fresh. check out SP for color codes, you might be able to get some really close with the ABS chips and GMK can match those pretty well.

We'll see. I've even considered simply getting all of the SP ABS chips. I just received a pastels & neons guide from Pantone.

I love this.  Possibly a 2U Shift in core set?  Thanks!

I'm not so sure about this one. There are so few users of a 2u shift.

Any chance there would be mods only kit? I feel like this would work really well with the alphas from other sets as well

I don't think a separate mods only kit would be feasible, but convince me otherwise.

Please consider adding R3 1.75u ERROR! novelties.

And a R3 2.25 as well.   ;D

Definitely considering these, how does a stepped novelty ERR! sound like?


Q&A Page 3

… Can I request some renders with Nightmode + Black TKL keyboards? Cheers!

Personally I think the colours are a bit off. There is too much red/purple in the base colour. It should be a dark blue.

Yeah, I think I need to adjust the white balance a bit more.

I'm very much set on using the different base colors on mods and alphas. I think it works really well with the color-scheme. Then again … how cool it would be to have a separate kit with space cadet alphas using the same base color as the modifiers, right?

what are the odds youll separate out the numpad at this point? lol need to start thinking about budget to get all the extra kits

This is most definitely being considered.

Btw, on top clack's stream last night, chat went mental for this set and Garrett of Dixemech said in chat he would take your set in a second if you are looking for vendors still.

I think that might be feasible considering how there must be many UK layout users. Having a NorDeUK Module would probably be optimal, but that's unlikely to reach MOQ. I need to make a form about this.

yea this is pretty fresh. check out SP for color codes, you might be able to get some really close with the ABS chips and GMK can match those pretty well.

- Consider adding 1.5u bottom-row Super keys for HHKB layout consistency (using 1.5u keys programmed as the OS key)

seconding these, also consider removing numpad sublegends

- The Pantone plastic chips should be pretty easy to color match, right? I'm planning to invest in those as well, but I might still need to think about maybe going the RAL route, at least partially.

- One more R4 1u Alt and 1u Ctrl coming right up. As well as the second R4 1.5u Super key, as one exists already.

- I think I need to make a form about removing the numpad sublegends, and other stuff as well. Coming soon.

I agree. Recent sets have proven it's much more of a total financial burden on the majority that don't use it and pay for it than it is for the few that use to pay for it as an extra kit. The difference in price between people that don't use it and pay for it is noticeably more (~30$) than the difference in price between getting it included vs buying a separate kit (~15-18)

Edit: Misunderstood the 15-18.

Not a fan of removing numpads as it does actually increase price over all(price per cap actually goes up when it is removed) so I would actually prefer it to be included rather than removed.

Yes, rest assured there will be no Hiragana Module. Instead, I will change the alphas in the Core Module to Hiragana /s

This set is beautiful! I'm in for sure.

Any chance of separating the numpad/iso off from the base kit? I have a feeling I'm already going to  be shelling out a pretty penny for the extra kits I want, and any reduction in price on the base kit would be quite welcomed.

To add some context to this, I'm wanting to buy two base kits and one each of the other kits. I like the base kit (with highlights when I'm feeling flashy) and I also really like the look of the nightmode+error kits. I like this set enough to use variations on multiple boards.

I'd really like to be able to grab a couple base kits and get all the child kits without it costing me an arm and a leg for two numpad kits and a bunch of iso keys than I'll never use.

I'm also down for a 40s/ortho kit.

Edit: After receiving feedback, the full HHKB support will be added to the Nightmode Module as well, as it should be included there as well.


Also, here's a render of the set on a TGR Jane V2 CE

So you would like to exclude a bunch of people by leaving out numpad and ISO just so you can pick up a couple of base kits to flip. Nice man.

doesnt even mention flipping. im in the same boat id love to buy multiple kits for different layouts/boards, pretty indifferent on iso so i dont mind having a few iso caps collecting dust but id prefer that then having multiple numpads that i have no use for.

on topic: i'd like to keep the numpad in the base kit but wouldn't mind having to pick it up as a subkit.

Same, but when a set comes from an ISO user (or at least resident), it's fair to assume ISO will be in the base kit ;)

How is making a separate kit for numpad/iso "excluding?" They would still be able to get the keys they need.
And let's be real "a bunch of people" is a bit of a stretch.

Is having a separate 40s/ortho kit "excluding" 40% users? You aren't even making sense. With the different child kits here I think this set can work on a number of very different levels that I really like, and I'd like to be able to use it on more than one board. I just love the colorway, and I'd like to be able to get all the kits I want without breaking the bank.

I could argue that including numpad/iso in the base kit is "excluding" ansi/tkl/75%/65%/60% users etc. by making them all pay extra for a bunch of keys they don't need just to bring down the cost of numpad/iso a bit for the few people who need it. Calling it "excluding" wouldn't really make sense, though.

I'm not saying "forget them," because I'd probably grab the kit myself just for the extra coverage incase I ever need it. I just dont want 2 sets of iso and numpad. This interest check already seems to have a lot of hype around it. I'm pretty sure that a numpad/iso kit would make MOQ just fine.

Also, while I'm genuinely not interested in "flipping" some base kits, I really don't see a problem with purchasing extras in an unlimited groupbuy that you think will be popular enough to make some money on. Even vendors buy extras and charge a significant markup for the extra kits. If I was looking to flip some base kits the addition of a numpad really wouldn't affect my bottom line very significantly, based on how ridiculous the aftermarket prices on certain popular sets can get. You could always charge a little more for a large base kit with lots of coverage.

Either way, like I said, I don't really see a problem with such practices in an unlimited run group buy. It's not at all the same as having a bunch of bots get you a couple spots for a tgr board or something that you don't even want, thus keeping others from having a fair chance at getting one and then flipping them for an exorbitant profit.

It's not even comparable to the "future crime" you're acusing me of, Tom Cruise.
Quit acting like I'm oppressing people or something. You sound paranoid.
It was a simple suggestion.

And a ****ty suggestion at that. It's pretty stupid to feel so entitled that you think you deserve to buy 2 base kits at a lower price whilst forcing other users to pay more to just be able to fill 1 board they use.

You are correct, excluding is the wrong word in your example because it makes no ****ing sense. In the case of pushing ISO and numpad out into it's own kit is excluding if it does not make MOQ and does not get manufactured.

The beauty of GMK sets is being able to cover pretty much every conceivable layout with a base kit. Imagine if all GMK sets were just the stupid 65%, TKL, etc "sets" they are now doing on Massdrop like for red samurai.

You are lecturing me about being in the hobby so we can all get cool things together, yet this guy wants to cut out an entire continent of keyboard enthusiasts so he can afford 2 base kits. I know some Europeans use ANSI now but that is because it is getting so difficult and expensive to get ISO keycaps. It's a vicious cycle as more and more Europeans switch to ANSI, it becomes harder and harder to meet ISO MOQ.

It is hardly "all of us sharing the joy" if this fine gentleman has 2 base sets and I have 0.

I'd really like to be able to grab a couple base kits


So you would like to exclude a bunch of people by leaving out numpad and ISO just so you can pick up a couple of base kits to flip. Nice man.


How is making a separate kit for numpad/iso "excluding?" They would still be able to get the keys they need.
And let's be real "a bunch of people" is a bit of a stretch.

Is having a separate 40s/ortho kit "excluding" 40% users? You aren't even making sense. With the different child kits here I think this set can work on a number of very different levels that I really like, and I'd like to be able to use it on more than one board. I just love the colorway, and I'd like to be able to get all the kits I want without breaking the bank.

I could argue that including numpad/iso in the base kit is "excluding" ansi/tkl/75%/65%/60% users etc. by making them all pay extra for a bunch of keys they don't need just to bring down the cost of numpad/iso a bit for the few people who need it. Calling it "excluding" wouldn't really make sense, though.

I'm not saying "forget them," because I'd probably grab the kit myself just for the extra coverage incase I ever need it. I just dont want 2 sets of iso and numpad. This interest check already seems to have a lot of hype around it. I'm pretty sure that a numpad/iso kit would make MOQ just fine.

Also, while I'm genuinely not interested in "flipping" some base kits, I really don't see a problem with purchasing extras in an unlimited groupbuy that you think will be popular enough to make some money on. Even vendors buy extras and charge a significant markup for the extra kits. If I was looking to flip some base kits the addition of a numpad really wouldn't affect my bottom line very significantly, based on how ridiculous the aftermarket prices on certain popular sets can get. You could always charge a little more for a large base kit with lots of coverage.

Either way, like I said, I don't really see a problem with such practices in an unlimited run group buy. It's not at all the same as having a bunch of bots get you a couple spots for a tgr board or something that you don't even want, thus keeping others from having a fair chance at getting one and then flipping them for an exorbitant profit.

It's not even comparable to the "future crime" you're acusing me of, Tom Cruise.
Quit acting like I'm oppressing people or something. You sound paranoid.
It was a simple suggestion.

And a ****ty suggestion at that. It's pretty stupid to feel so entitled that you think you deserve to buy 2 base kits at a lower price whilst forcing other users to pay more to just be able to fill 1 board they use.

You are correct, excluding is the wrong word in your example because it makes no ****ing sense. In the case of pushing ISO and numpad out into it's own kit is excluding if it does not make MOQ and does not get manufactured.

The beauty of GMK sets is being able to cover pretty much every conceivable layout with a base kit. Imagine if all GMK sets were just the stupid 65%, TKL, etc "sets" they are now doing on Massdrop like for red samurai.

Mod edit: Why you have to be mad :( Keep tone civil, or warnings are going to be issued

Entitled? I'm just asking you to consider the needs of people like me. There's no expectation that this set, or anything, should be catered to my every whim, and to clarify, I want to pay less for ONE kit, as I'm sure many people do. Pointing out my specific case of considering multiple base kits just highlights the issues associated with having that much coverage included in the base kit. Moving some of the less used coverage to it's own kits (ex. Jamon, Striker) can bring the base kit down from around $140 to a cool $100.

Again, it could be counter-argued that you are the entitled one by expecting others to pay 40% more just so you can get what you want. In the example of Striker, 728 base kits were sold. Of those only 200 people actually wanted numberpads. To put that in context, that's almost the same amount of people who wanted 40%/orthodox coverage (197), generally considered a niche of a niche. More people bought spacebar kits than numberpads (271).

I think those numbers also pretty thoroughly disprove that "the beauty of gmk sets is coverage." I'm fairly new to the hobby, but even with my relative lack of experience in the community I'd say that the beauty of gmk sets are colors, quality, and profile, not coverage you can get that anywhere and for much cheaper.

I'm not trying to dump on iso either, if they can't make moq I don't care if that's included in the base kit. The main issue for me is cost and numberpad being put on it's own will help more significantly with that.

In the example of Jamon, according to the numbers on the massdrop page, 846 base kits were sold. Of those, 250 numpads and only 23 ISO kits were sold. A literal meme kit, "the eρe survival kit," sold 137 units. In this example the base kit+numpad+iso would run you around $154. If it were all thrown together in a base kit, based on my limited experience, it would probably be in the ballpark of $140.

So you're calling me entitled for simply asking if the core kit can be leaned down a bit to cut cost for the vast majority of users, but you're expecting everyone else to pay an extra $40 so you and a few other people can save $14? I really must be a stupid ****ing American because that makes no sense to me, unless you're incredibly entitled.

I'll stop here because I'm not trying to totally muddy up the thread. I felt the need to explain myself clearly, though, because apparently asking questions about putting iso/numpad in a separate kit triggers some people quite violently.

I'm just really excited for such a beautiful set and it would be nice to pay what I consider a more reasonable price for it. Also, thanks for making that feedback form, much appreciated.

That same logic could be applied to you - how entitled do you have to be to advocate for forcing every single buyer in the gb to pay more overall for extra keys that only a select few will ever use?

You are correct, excluding is the wrong word in your example because it makes no ****ing sense. In the case of pushing ISO and numpad out into it's own kit is excluding if it does not make MOQ and does not get manufactured.

What makes you think these kits deserve to be made if they arent popular enough to make moq on their own merit? Let alone requiring the vast majority of participants to supplement their existence by gouging every wallet a little deeper.

Seems like quite an entitled opinion to me.

Looks really nice.

My only suggestions so far would be to remove Numpad and ISO from base.  :thumb:

I agree. Recent sets have proven it's much more of a total financial burden on the majority that don't use it and pay for it than it is for the few that use to pay for it as an extra kit. The difference in price between people that don't use it and pay for it is noticeably more (~30$) than the difference in price between getting it included vs buying a separate kit (~15-18)

Just my .02

This set is beautiful! I'm in for sure.

Any chance of separating the numpad/iso off from the base kit? I have a feeling I'm already going to  be shelling out a pretty penny for the extra kits I want, and any reduction in price on the base kit would be quite welcomed.

I’m feelin this one too
Now this is an idea I can get behind.

Sales from recent sets have all but proven the demand for ISO (and even numpad to an extent) is vastly overrated, but im still pleasantly surprised about just how much feedback there has been in this particular IC. Hopefully pikku-allu takes this into consideration.

Also voicing my wish for ISO UK - sad to see so many people advocating for its removal, though I understand their viewpoint. If numpad is split I'll be buying it anyway - perhaps a combined ISO/numpad kit like GMK Cafι's considering currently? (1.25u shift is in base for 40s coverage, but could be moved)
(https://i.imgur.com/ysMEzSk.png)
Seems like one way to keep both sides happy, and it provides opportunity for full ISO UK coverage. Theoretically it'd mean the numpad and ISO users bolster it enough to get the kit to MOQ (or the numpad users carry us ISO users, depending how you look at it)

To chime in with my stance on the ISO and numpad discussion, ISO is staying in either the base kit or included in a way that MOQ is possible to reach. The GMK Cafι's kit does not seem like a bad idea to me. I too believe that the numpad would reach MOQ even as a separate kit. No matter what solution is implemented or not, some people are still going to be dissatisfied with the decision. Every suggestion is being considered, but not everything is possible. Also, after the latest PayPal change about not getting the PayPal fees back anymore if refunded has an effect on offered kits as well.

Beautiful set!

Is there any chance you could add a single 1.25u r3 tab key? This is the only key (with right profile, not legends) required for 40% keyboards and would be a huge boon for the base kit. I'd be happy with any r3 1.25u legend you want there honestly. Tab, ctrl, or enter are all fine.

Possible cuts to accommodate this key: r1 pg down, r3 home, mod or alpha colored r1 pipe keys, 1 of the r4 1u ctrl or alt keys (what layout uses 2x 1u ctrl or alt??).

Seconded. I see a lot of GB runners prioritizing things like multiple accent keys over providing basic compatibility for 40% users. A 40% kit is honestly a luxury IMO.

That said, I think the double 1u keys are for ortho.

I will say that I would love to see bare mininal ISO keys included in the base.

In the renders of the Jane V2 CE the F13 key is modifier colored, however, the only F13 in the kits you have rendered in the OP is an alpha colored one in the ERR! Module. I'm sure its just a little mix up, but I figured I'd point it out nonetheless.

Ah yes, I noticed it looks much better with a modifier color. I'm changing it, should have mentioned it earlier.  :thumb:


Does that mean there’s space for the new F13 in the nightmode kit   ;)

Yes tho shipping isnt the cheapest. Shipping for a GMK set is $34 AUD which is roughly $24 USD, and i think that's shipping via post.

Buying a set from zF would still come put cheaper. GMK Olive for example is $145 USD on zF and that already includes shipping with DHL which takes like 3-4 days to deliver. From keyclack it's 189 AUD + 34 AUD which is around $155 USD shipped with the post offce?

I hope that zF gets added to the proxy list so fulfill SEA orders

Have you made any decision on separating off ISO/numpad into a combined GMK Cafι esque kit? Really hoping that ends up happening.

Also is there any sort of timetable on moving forward to GB phase? I didn't see this asked in the last couple of pages so if you've already answered this I apologize!

Post by: sevenseacat on Mon, 03 June 2019, 04:17:34
Fair enough. I might be somewhat biased because I hear lots of bad press about ZF and get zero communications from them, whereas DC is very open with discussing issues and providing support.

If ISO did get bundled into numpad, would really appreciate the 3 keys needed to make it work with UK ISO. I'm sure all the other UK-based buyers would appreciate it too.

Free shipping just means they jack up their prices to cover it. It was cheaper for me to order DSA Scientific from TheKeyCompany and pay shipping from the US to Australia, than order it from ZFrontier with its free shipping.

It's almost a blue grey if he's trying to match the IDE theme. https://draculatheme.com/sublime/ (or really any other applications previews) is gonna give a good idea on the colors I would think Pikku is going for here.

I really like this set and I've been thinking of ways to make it better. I suggest removing ANSI support from the base set so I can save some $ for my ISO brethren :) I mean, the only way to enter is a big enter amirite?

Yes, the base colors are very dark grayish blue, to be matched to the theme colors. There isn't supposed to be a purple tone to them (however, if the colors look better with just a tiny bit of purple with samples later on, then some creative freedom might be used). I've been working very hard on overhauling my entire render setup to produce more accurate colors. There won't be any drastic difference really, just an improvement.

Here's a color comparison with other popular/similar GMK sets:

▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓ COLOR_COMPARISON.md ▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓
├── The colors are represented as accurately as possible using the correct color codes, using neutral lighting.
└── The second version has a neutral background color instead of a stylized one for an even more accurate comparison, as perception of color is relative to the surroundings after all.

This is such a beautiful set, would love some ISO UK support though, either in the base kit, in a NorDeUK or bundled in with the numpad. I don't really mind what way you do it, just as long as I don't have to use the dreaded ANSI-ISO blend. But saying that, this set is so good looking that I'll get it anyway, regardless of ISO support (which is a big deal for me cause I never get a set if there is no ISO UK support, that's just how good looking this set is).
That ERR! module is so cool.
Long shot question, is there any chance you would be willing to add an "ERROR" ISO enter to the ERR! kit or even adding it to a NorDeUK kit if you go that route?

For anyone looking for some context for this colorway. Here's the website, Sublime Text, and Neovim-QT all side by side.

In the keyset, the light accent color is being used as the alpha base color, while the base background color is being used as the mod base color.

Update #2 (2019-06-12): Adjusted the colors of GMK Solarized Dark to better represent the resulted colors of the set, rather than the intended original colors.

You sir, have convinced me. I will not be joining Oblivion V2 but will join Dracula. And tbh, most of that is due to something I already imagined, not a lot of difference between Modern Dolch and Oblivion besides the colored legends. Dracula offers colored legends but also actually different colors, I approve :D

We might be waiting a little bit longer since he has some stuff in todo to finish like adding 40's/ortho/split module, and possibly deskmat design.

The market for GBs is also pretty saturated at the moment so idk if there is much of a rush. Hopefully it won't take as long as Oblivion was in IC.

Maybe a non-error novelty set that might help with some rare keys? I need some odd keys in certain positions but would be happy with slightly ambiguous legend names / icons to fill these spots.

Also wouldn’t mind if this just said “lock” as I don’t use caps but would use that key for something else.

I don’t think any recent sets have! GMK Originative from a while back has one, and outside of custom keysets, Limited edition Realforces have all included 1.25u (1.5u for non R2/JIS) caps lock keys.

Edit: Looks like a lot of Originative keysets have them, including Tokyo Nights and Hyperfuse Origins!

Kindly consider adding R3 PgUp and R4 PgDn to the base kit, as well as using “Scroll” and “Num” legends instead of “Scroll↵Lock” and “Num↵Lock” (also “Caps” instead of “Caps↵Lock” on the stepped key) for a clean, single-line look across the entire set. :)

Further, I don't think a 1.25u Menu key is all that useful — consider removing it and just using the 1.25u Fn in its place? I believe that's what most recent GMK sets have been doing.

Also, those color comparison pics are super useful; thanks for those!

I'm trying to understand if it's worthwhile to support that in addition to R2 PgUp and R3 PgDn which have been more or less baseline so far.

65% and 75% layouts use these r3 and r4 pgup and pgdown. Alternatively on my 75% i can do r2 and r3 pgup and pgdown, with r4 end, but most sculpted keysets i have do not propose that key.

And again I wonder, how many personal preference options are we going to give 65% before we offer 1 keycap for basic 40% in the base kit... There's already two different options for 65% users on that row I think that's plenty. You don't need to have r1/r2 and r2/r3 and r3/r4 pgup/pgdown I feel.

It's hardly recent. GMK Muted, SA Honeywell etc., for example, only offered R3 PgUp and R4 PgDn compat, not R2 and R3. This is still the case with JTK sets. I think it's worthwhile supporting them at least as much as 1.5u Super keys — R3 PgUp and R4 PgDn arguably see about the same amount of use as those, if not more so. Certainly more than R1 1u Backspace.

More people are getting more keyboards that use those keys, and want keycaps that fit their layout.  Massdrop has sold 4,400 Alts so far; I wouldn't be surprised if that makes it the most common 65% out there now (it's either that or the Tada68).  Anyone looking at GMK Dracula is probably also watching GMK Nord and GMK Oblivion V2, and both of those sets already include R3 PgUp and R4 PgDn in their kits.

Right. I'm wondering aloud if R3, R4 is more popular now than R2, R3. By adding R3, R4 support, that would make 7 keys dedicated to PgUp and PgDn. It makes sense for some sets to cut this down when trying to keep the base set affordable.

I don't think it's a good idea to remove R2 PgUp, R3 PgDn. There's a place for both options, and I think most sets that seek to offer 65% compatibility should include both. If base kit size becomes a problem, there are, in my opinion, other keys that should be removed first (so I agree with AlcoholEnthusiast in that regard). In Dracula's case, those keys are:
If, and only if, base kit size is still a problem after removing the above keys would I consider removing R2/R3 or R3/R4 PgUp and PgDn, or 1.5u Super keys.

There isn't any explicit ortho support in the base kit anyway, so I don't think that applies here. If the goal is to support ortho boards, there should be a separate kit for it, which would include the 1u Backspace and other necessary keys.

 On 75s there is enough room for Del -> Home -> Pg Up -> Pg Down -> End, but I have to cut out one with 65s and it's usually End which slides everything down.

Yes I know and I'm happy to buy that extra premium to have correct legends on all my keys. Dracula has everything needed for UK ISO except the 2, 3, and '@. 3 additional keys will have a negligible impact on price so I'm not sure why it is not included.

After so much discussion, let me clarify some things:

  • R3 PgUp & R4 PgDn will be added to the Core Module.
  • a 40's/ortho Module is definitely being added
  • a NorDeUK Module will very likely be offered
  • I'd love to offer a Colevrak Module as well, but that is not certain yet. Options are still being considered though.

More details and the new kits coming soon.

Really appreciate the update!  :thumb:

Dracula has everything needed for UK ISO except the 2, 3, and '@. 3 additional keys will have a negligible impact on price so I'm not sure why it is not included.

Because we are already subsidizing multiple extra keys for a negligible amount of users in the base kit, and most are sick of it to be quite honest. How many iso enter keys are out there already, never to be used. Its a waste of plastic, and unfair to put that burden on the majority for the benefit of a minute few.

a 40's/ortho Module is definitely being added
a NorDeUK Module will very likely be offered
I'd love to offer a Colevrak Module as well, but that is not certain yet. Options are still being considered though.

Thats good news, its nice to offer compatibility, especially to those who are willing to pay for it.

Any chance moving all ISO from the base to the NorDeUK module, if it becomes a reality?

Ya, I agree with the above comment moving ISO to the norde kit. it would also help because you cam add full UK ISO and it will help move that kit along cause more people would be interested in buying it

Are we about to degenerate into one of those "keep the things I like and remove things I don't" threads?

Personally I'd love it if the missing ISO UK keys were added to the base kit as it would make Dracula an absolute no-brainer. I'm still leaning heavily towards joining the GB for a base kit even if it only includes some of the ISO UK keys but if they were all thrown into a separate expensive kit; the vast majority of which I don't need, it'd probably be a no. I imagine a lot of UK users would do the same.

Does that mean pikku has to include the keys I want...no. But this is an interest check thread and I'm expressing my interest on that basis.

Where did we land on removing Numpad? The Cafι numpad/ISO kit makes a lot of sense to me. Seems to drop base kits somewhere in the 25-30$ range which is fairly substantial drop.

Post by: Poesjuh on Fri, 21 June 2019, 16:41:09
Might need the numpad, rather have that in the base kit. I'm not against removing a numpad and pairing it with some other keys, but hate it when the -combined price- of the two seperate kits is $30 more than the original price for a single larger kit... :(

Nope, just a "keep the things the vast majority use, and move the things only the select few do to their respective kit(s)" thread.

If you arent willing to pay a little extra to fill a non-standard layout, get used to not always getting the keys you want/need in the base kit.

How do you define "the vast majority" and "the select few"?  What are non-standard layouts?

If meeting MoQ is at risk, optimizing a little perhaps make sense.

You don't want to buy the kit because you don't want to pay for a bunch of keys you don't need? Sounds familiar, because the majority of users don't want to pay for your keys, either. Why should 500+ people have to pay for uk iso kits because you don't want to buy a kit that includes the keys that you want?

The reality is that if uk iso was made it's own kit, it would not hit MOQ, so someone has to carry you. I don't think it's fair to ask that it be the entirety of the group buy that subsidizes the existence of your kit. It should be done as a NorDeUK kit, that way the international community can fund their own keys together, or you can tack basic iso support onto the numpad kit, and the number pad users can fund your needs. To be really honest, I don't even think it's totally fair to make numpad users pay for your needs either, but it's more fair than having 500+ people pay for the needs of 10-20 users.

I'm not actually suggesting making uk iso it's own kit, I get that some people want specialized keys that most don't, and need help hitting MOQ. I just think it's really lame of you to expect the entire group buy to help pay for you instead of having other niche users help bolster each other's specialized keys. Like you'd rather leave NorDe out in the rain if you can push your way into the base kit. So instead of helping other members of the international community reach MOQ for their niche keys too, you'd like the entire ansi community to help you reach MOQ and lower your overall cost. Meanwhile, NorDe users don't even get their keys. I feel like you don't even see the irony/hypocrisy.

You realize you made the same fallacy you described in the first sentence, right?

Why are you against having basic, neutral ISO compatibility in the base kit?
(https://i.imgur.com/02BzbXn.png)
Your ISO boards will be perfectly usable with just these four keys, and the rest (i.e. majority) of us who don't use ISO-UK won't be forced to pay extra for 5 more keys in every base kit. I think this solution is a great compromise. If you want to have matching legends for your international layout, purchase the international kit; the runner did say he would most likely be offering one. I don't think ISO-UK should be given priority over, say, ISO-DE, or any other popular ISO layout.

I agree with diorite on most of the other points he made.

+1, and the same is true for 40% and ortho support. Ortho users literally need 0 extra support in the base kit, because there are always extra 1u keys. Meanwhile 40% users need at most 5 keys, if you're feeling generous you can give them 3, and even 1 key is enough to keep most users happy. On a nonstandard layout, getting the right legends is a luxury IMO.

I'm a huge advocate for adding ISO support (and even UK ISO support) to base kits so that we can reach parity with ANSI and I agree with you totally. I think it is a good compromise, and I think this is right amount of compatibility I'd expect a base kit to include.

I'll be buying the base and NorDeUK Module and will probably sell on the keys I don't need to people from other countries who also want correct legends.

I think enough ISO support to be compatible with ISO boards is totally fine, and a set won't be "totally unusable" if my 3/£ key isn't in the proper place.

I think in cases where there isn't an international kit offered, it probably makes sense to roll UK ISO into either base or numpad kid as this is usually a good second best for all ISO users. This topic is much larger than this IC though, and so if anyone wants to go into more detail on the current contentious issues around "should kits support ISO" I'd encourage them to keep it out of here and instead chime into the thread that was made about it: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=101263.0.

As it stands I think ISO support is being handled really well in this IC by way of ISO in base kit and separate NorDeUK kit (likely).

Besides that I am very excited for it.

I’m trying to imagine this with the future funk icon kit...

On one hand i’d love an icon kit in this, but there are a lot of kits already and adding mother will probably cost the numbers on one of the existing ones. Such a tough choice ...

I can’t stop imagining an icon kit in “gloomy colors”tm

I love this set! One suggestion I have is to make the mods text-only. While my personal opinion is that text-only mods are more aesthetically pleasing, I also think that it would better reflect the fact that this is a set based on code and text editors. I'd be curious to hear why the designer has gone for text + icon mods in the current design.

Is the r4 1u fn gonna be the cyan to match the shift or will it be the green?

The R4 1u Fn is going to be cyan, to match the 1.75u Shift it's usually paired with. I wanted to include a little Dracula green on the function keys, but then again the 1u Fn should also match the shift ...

Text+icon mods are not going anywhere. It's down to personal preference, as well as the fact that the colored modifier legends stand out more when using both text and icons.

Just a tiny thing, but the error module puts additional arrows on HJKL vim style, while a lot of 60%s put them on IJKL instead. I'd love to see support for both styles.

This will probably be my first GMK set, and although I don’t use ISO or numpad I’d prefer to pay for extra ISO keys than numpad with the base set.

But if the price isn’t insanely high I’ll probably buy it anyway. Need some dark caps!

Standard Kit (Core Module) looks like it supports WKL. At the bottom of the core image there is the 7U Spacebar and the Keys for WKL. Also supports split backspace if you were planning to do that with your SKB60.

Damn, son. The amount of work and attention to detail in this IC is insane. Stunning.

The set looks great, too. The ERR set is magnificent in particular.

I probably won't be participating in the group buy, because I can't afford so many GMK sets all at once (and I'm getting 8008 right now), but this is a really close second. Maybe I'll cop it, if I get some extra cash before Q4.

Anyway, excellent work with the IC.

You're not using the term gatekeeping correctly.

Gatekeeping is saying something like "You're not a real mechanical keyboard fan unless you use ANSI."

It has nothing to do with not making something.

Gatekeeping is saying something like "You're not a real mechanical keyboard fan unless you use ANSI."

It has nothing to do with not making something.

Gatekeeping
"the activity of controlling, and usually limiting, general access to something."

/r/gatekeeping community description says this:
"Gatekeeping is when someone takes it upon themselves to decide who does or does not have access or rights to a community or identity."

You're talking only about that identity part. The term is not as limited as you think.

There are people on this forum that say ISO users should run their own ISO-only group buys.

As a 40% ortho user, the ISO rant always seems hilarious to me. You guys don’t see us demanding that 40% keys should be in the base kit, do you?
And we’re the ones who have no problem hitting MOQ (though admittedly rarely hitting a price break point).

You’re a minority and you have to accept it as commenter above has. It almost seems like 40% is bigger now than iso. But you can rest easy. I doubt iso is leaving at this point

but lets just turn this around and help the minorities and make full compatibility with most ISO kits in base kit and just throw out all the ANSI stuff and make it a separate kit :) Since the majority is using ANSI, the ANSI kit will also be offered 100% of time. This way the kits would 100% hit MOQ all the time and even way more :D ANSI users will buy the base anyways and their ANSI kit as well, ISO users will also buy the base kit and everyone is happy :D easy solution :)

Dude I know, we’re a small (heh) minority. No big deal.
It’s the ISO people”s constant refusal of reality and ISO kit sales data that amuses me.
Vocal minority, indeed.


This is what I always think of when the ISO argument comes up. I would be willing to bet we have way more 40s users than ISO at this point (196 vs 37 on Jamon). So 40s users have more of an argument for keys in base than ISO does.

ISO support in base kit in this GB is four keys. There are people who will not join the GB if this minimum support is not there in the base kit. You will never have sales data of these customers.

Four keys. How many keys does 40% require that are not in ansi layout?

If they took iso out and those people didn’t join because of it, it wouldn’t really matter. The set will sell no matter what.

Until the hobby grows, ISO users do need support. We're a small but not insignificant part of the mechanical keyboard community. There's a big scene outside of US/China where'll you'll find lots of ISO boards. Spending power is probably around 20% of what ANSI is right now though (at most), and when sets don't do ISO properly a lot of people just don't join those GBs in favour of sets that do.

I think a $4 price increase (people in the UK community have talked to GMK about this) is worth it for 20% of the community. If you can't afford a $4 price increase, then maybe a hobby where spending $150+ on plastic is a frequent thing isn't for you?

It has nothing to do with how well ANSI users financial situation are. It's about not wanting keys that the Majority will never use.

It has nothing to do with how well ANSI users financial situation are. It's about not wanting keys that the Majority will never use.

We all pay for keys we don’t use though. There’ll always be a bottom row you don’t use, or an extra B, or 40s keys you don’t use. So I don’t really see the argument there. I know 80% of people won’t use the ISO keys, but the same could be said about any layout you don’t use. This hobby is built in preference, and making a B-line towards homogenising kits based on what the majority use benefits a lot of people a very small amount while making the set totally unusable for a not insignificant amount of people.

If it’s not that, and it’s not about cost, then what is it?

ISO user reporting for duty!
For those that are against ISO, what percentage of sales would ISO have to be for you to not complain about it? Just curious.

Until the hobby grows, ISO users do need support. We're a small but not insignificant part of the mechanical keyboard community. There's a big scene outside of US/China where'll you'll find lots of ISO boards. Spending power is probably around 20% of what ANSI is right now though (at most), and when sets don't do ISO properly a lot of people just don't join those GBs in favour of sets that do.

I think a $4 price increase (people in the UK community have talked to GMK about this) is worth it for 20% of the community. If you can't afford a $4 price increase, then maybe a hobby where spending $150+ on plastic is a frequent thing isn't for you?
It has nothing to do with how well ANSI users financial situation are. It's about not wanting keys that the Majority will never use.

We all pay for keys we don’t use though. There’ll always be a bottom row you don’t use, or an extra B, or 40s keys you don’t use. So I don’t really see the argument there. I know 80% of people won’t use the ISO keys, but the same could be said about any layout you don’t use. This hobby is built in preference, and making a B-line towards homogenising kits based on what the majority use benefits a lot of people a very small amount while making the set totally unusable for a not insignificant amount of people.

My thoughts exactly.  It is just a few more keys, please consider adding them to this great looking set.  I would love to have this set.

I need this so bad. I've been using the Dracula soft syntax theme on vscode for the past few months and this would be perfect to match. My wallet and body is ready.

Yes, it's going to be mod colored, indeed looks much better that way. A new update including that change as well as new additions coming very soon. Stay tuned.

Update time—finally! The group buy for GMK Dracula is launching on October 4th on Dixie Mech, Mykeyboard.eu, Daily Clack Dracc Dracc Dracc!, and iLumkb!

All the existing kits have undergone some changes. The Core Module's wide compatibility has mostly remained the same, with some minor tweaks. The Nightmode Module reflects the same changes, as it should. The Highlight Module has received some extra color choices. With the addition of a new module, split keys have been moved from the spacebar kit, which now provides accent colors instead. The ERR! Module now has even more exciting new novelties to choose from! Unfortunately the white accented versions were dropped in order to keep the kit affordable.

Check them out (Also updated in the first post):

Sad to see the smaller spacebar + split bar + B kit removed. Was going to put on rukia but don't see buying an entire 40s kit just for split bars + B.

Would accent bars in the highlight kit not make more sense?

Either way, I'm in for quite a few of the kits, and still super excited for the set.

It'll fit just fine. Switches are not a problem for keycap compatibility 95% of the time, most people use MX style switches. The layout of the Anne Pro 2 is pretty standard too, so you should be able to get away with just the base kit.

A yes/no wouod be nice at least. But I can't see myself spending $100+ on any set without R5 at this point. Just feels so much better on a board with any angle of 8 degrees or more.

R5 bottom-row is not really in line with the modern theme of the set. It would also complicate the already complicated kits. I have not personally tried R5 yet, so I can't comment on how it feels. Maybe with another set.

The updated legends for left and right are more centered, the older style was just above center (aligned with the bottom of the arrow rather than center). So the dracula renders have both updated left/right and old up/down. Not sure which is correct (either way I want it so...)

You're totally right! Thanks for pointing that out, an oversight on my part. The arrows are supposed to, and will be the OG style. Those are now fixed and will be included next time when updating renders.

was a decision made to not include red accent enter and numpad enter in err module to keep cost down? bc while i'm most likely going to use the critical error enter, i would like the option to use red accent esc, enter, numpad enter with the error backspace. not huge deal but it'd be nice.

I'm torn between this and GMK Firefly for a polycarb board. Any idea when this is estimated to ship out?

18 weeks after the GB closes and the order submits so... like April 2020?

This set has really grown on me. I honestly think that this + my Grid 600 w/DZ60rgb will be endgame. Absolutely flawless.  :thumb:

I think you may have jumped the gun the page seems to be broken to me, and the link is not live from the home page. I think they are still working on the page?

Hello, Dracula;

I'm stoked that this is running  ;D

I invested in 3 base kits, 1 of every other kit, both rama caps, and both deskmats.

If ergo / ortho kits were available then I would invest in one of each or two assembly kits. If colevrak kits were available then I would invest in at-least 4 of them.

Obviously, I'm saying this because I want you to run ergo, ortho, and colevrak kits. I feel let down that you haven't, and I want to voice my support for them in-case you reconsider.

---

PS: I can be blunt in writing sometimes. I'm not looking for an explanation or debate. And I'm not trying to make anyone feel bad. I'm a huge fan of this project and I really appreciate what the designer, vendors, and everyone else involved is doing.

Wait... were coleverak kits an option that were pushed to the wayside? Is it still a possibility to get coleverak support here? If it were included, I pinky promise to change my IDE's and terminals to dark theme instead of light theme :>

Please support the Localization Module! We have the price as low as it can be @50 MOQ, taking no profit.

It's as close to the Dracula modifier color as possible. Just calling it "Navy".

Glad you like the set so much! An assembly type kit or Colevrak could not make it this time unfortunately. Mostly because there are already so many different kits available, adding anything would be too much. Hope you understand.

You know what they say about planting trees… well, the same applies to GMK group buys; "The best time to join a GMK group buy was 6 months ago. The second best time is now."

Any chances of getting an ortho render?
I'm 5 seconds away from ordering this for my preonic.

This would be my first group buy. Really excited.
