Combo MOD

[Godnick]

This hasn't really been a problem for me, when I used to screenshrink. but now that you guys made it to where you can change the scroll rate, The combo really gets in the way, when your playing 2.0x. Especially once you hit 1,000, I usually lose my combo at this point because of the ginormous combo messes me up.

So I thought that it would be cool if there was a MOD option where you could make it where there's no combo in the way.

Or make it to where there's no combo, but it shows if your getting Good's/perfects etc. what do you think? Or both

I like how the combo is Smack Dab, Right in the middle!


I know my game playing would improve if the combo wasn't there.

I know this will never happen, But i just thought it was a cool idea.

Re: Combo MOD

I agree with this. It's half the reason why I got a mod for my SM so it had a small combo. It would be nice if the combo was to the side and small. In MP it could be over the other persons area.

We've had this multiple times, but it's a good idea nonetheless.

Pardon me if I'm wrong, but I think Synth said he'd consider this.

edit: Also, Fido, great choice for a quote, man.

Re: Combo MOD

I really want this. I can't get over the fact that I keep screwing up because there's a big-ass set of numbers in the way...

Re: Combo MOD

Just get used to it. This is how I play.

I don't even notice the combo is there unless I want to see it. The space it takes on a non screencutted screen isn't big. You will probably stop seeing it after a while.

Re: Combo MOD

You see, That's not the full screen though. And your playing down instead of up.

I play up, and when your playing on 2.0x Scroll Rate, the combo definitely messes me up. It's not like it's just like an images there either. You got the PERFECT! Flashing and The Combo Constantly changing.

Re: Combo MOD

hmm. this is a good idea. i always look at my combo and get scared to mess it up. then i mess up. if i didnt have it then maybe id do better.

Re: Combo MOD

Yes, it's not the full screen, which means the combo takes more space on the screen and is supposed to be more distracting. I don't see how playing down or up changes anything, the combo is there in both cases.
What I was trying to say is that if I can play like that, you can probably get used to the combo and it will stop distracting you. I'm not against this idea, and it would be great if it was implemented, but the combo isn't something really bad.

Re: Combo MOD

Yeah, it's a great idea. I mean, I wanna know my combo status, but I don't want it distracting me.

Re: Combo MOD

Not a bad idea; sounds like the option in Drummania/GuitarFreaks in which you could change the position of where the combo number is displayed. Doesn't distract me, but I guess it does for some.

Maybe a transparent combo?

Debatable, I started off just like that, where the combo is fully showing in my screenshrink. it didn't discract me, but now that I play 2.0x with fullscreen, it comes at a much bigger distraction. IT must be something that i do with my eyes, I try as hard as i can not to notice the combo, but it's pretty hard for me.

Maybe a transparent combo?

yes, same thing

Another good idea, I thought about that too.

Re: Combo MOD

Good idea, T-up. Definitely a problem for some of our users. I was thinking this through and thoght of it flashing at intervals of like 50. So, the combo's not always there, it just flashes up every once and a while. I like your suggestion and I'd like to see it implimented.

Re: Combo MOD

Stop crying...



Listen, I've played with the damn combo in the way for eight months now, I don't even see the combo, but I know for sure if it's changed in any way it will start to bug the crap out of me. So just STFU and get used to it. Everyone else has. What I mean by "I don't see the combo" is that it no longer effects me, I just don't even realize it's there anymore. UNLESS I look directly at it.

Yep, and you've played just as much as I have, you ranks 10 better than mine.

It might not effect some people. And it's just an idea,

Everyone else has
