Re: Ingame Songs/Stepfiles Discussion Thread

The notes are definitely late, by a frame or so.

?_?

Wow, that's really odd. Every note was on the edge of the early good frame for me.

Yeah, it beats between good and perf, as far as I can tell. Either way it needs fixin.

Re: Ingame Songs/Stepfiles Discussion Thread

Any idea when it's going to be fixed?

Re: Ingame Songs/Stepfiles Discussion Thread

When Tass gets back from San Fransisco and people annoy him about it and then he has free time, he will fix it.

Re: Ingame Songs/Stepfiles Discussion Thread

yo 0, what files would you hold up as examples of overusing PR? thanks

btw what do subbies think of witches hat? I had to use unconventional layering for some of the sections because handswing doesn't really make for a good file

Re: Ingame Songs/Stepfiles Discussion Thread

well, some files like radio heads that use the same note patterns are fun at first, but get a little tiring. it would be more fun if it used a different repeated arrow throughout the song.
I can't think of any others at the moment, but that's the main one


btw witches hat is a great file, the swing style is really cool in that song.

Re: Ingame Songs/Stepfiles Discussion Thread

One could argue trills are better than jacks because that pattern is closer to the motion of strumming, if you know what I mean.

I also find Radioheads really tiring.

I agree with this. Also for drums, too.

Re: Ingame Songs/Stepfiles Discussion Thread

But it really just depends on what type of file you want because you can argue it both ways and neither are wrong.

My example of too much PR would be OMW v2. Creates some awkward patterns and nonintuitive stuff. That said, I love the file to pieces.

Re: Ingame Songs/Stepfiles Discussion Thread

Stepmania isn't meant to emulate the feel of playing any particular instrument, but the feel of replicating the song as a whole. If that makes any sense

[bluguerrilla]

Re: Ingame Songs/Stepfiles Discussion Thread

I didn't say that it was but who says it's meant to do anything. I can interpret a song however I want and if representing how it's played too, I can do that. Equating single arrow PR to one noise is just one way to interpret an instrument.

I'm not saying that it does make you feel like you're playing the instrument more to do trills vs. jacks but that it represents the motion better. The back and forth motion of a trill is like the back and forth motion of strumming. You can't tell me it's not.

Re: Ingame Songs/Stepfiles Discussion Thread

So Tasselfoot, you're suggesting Death Piano won't be the hardest song anymore?
(excluding vb ROFL)

probably tass is going to say that RATO and vb ROFL are the hardest songs on FFR because RATO is much harder than DP.
