DDReamStudio - Official Guide

Re: DDReamStudio - Official Guide

the latest version released thus far was 2.00 beta 6.
a link I found online to this file: http://rapidlibrary.com/files/ddream...e99bi89on.html

I think I might still have the original website information detailing every bug fix and new feature since the beginning if anyone needs that.

Please! That would be very appreciated. I will also add your link to the OP. Thanks!

check your email.

to all: it's been a long time since I've done anything with ddream. It's great how many of your are now masters of the program and have made tutorials and shared knowledge of it (I've searched the forum so I know a little of what's been done in the past few years). If anyone has any questions, you know where to find me.

Re: DDReamStudio - Official Guide

your program truly has revolutionized the way simfiles are created - I refuse to make charts without at least using DDream to acquire a proper sync/offset now.

You have a lot to be proud of.

Re: DDReamStudio - Official Guide

This is really great you guys, I'm glad you could work together and salvage ddreamstudio's resources so thoroughly. It's a wonderful tool and it would have been a shame if we didn't save it for posterity.

Re: DDReamStudio - Official Guide

Thanks TC Halogen and everyone.

Couple things I've discovered (this is important)
1. If you are downloading Beta 6 from the above link (maybe even beta 5, verification needed), be sure to set the permissions of the extracted folder *NOT to be "read only"* or else you will not be able to backup all saves. To enable backup of all saves, go to Options and check the box.

2. If ddream crashes when you press ctrl+alt+left to slow down the music, most likely it is because you are using an Intel graphics card and that is the shortcut to rotate the screen. Simply go to the display driver software and disable its keyboard shortcuts.

For point 1: I redownloaded the mirrored version of beta 6 just to test it and the permission was "read and write"... I can't see the issue at all. Is this because of the computer I'm currently using?

For point 2: I'll add this to the correct section in the guide

Re: DDReamStudio - Official Guide

point 1: when i unzipped it onto my computer the permissions were somehow read only. Guess it depends on the computer.

thanks

Re: DDReamStudio - Official Guide

youre welcome.

MarioNintendo/All: - Any way to get all the tutorial videos ever made about ddream linked on here? I have a nearly complete list of youtube links.

edit: downloaded the beta 6 again, unzipped, and the unzipped folder is still read-only.

Well the only video I know about is this one:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gELZccSR2p0&feature=player_embedded

It was the one featured on your site and I found it very informative.

There was also who_cares973's two part tutorial (which wasn't helpful to me, but might be to others):

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xsStDFZZTNI&list=UUFhExdZ2oig8gZ_VN0YQqMw&index=33&feature=plcp

For the rest, you might have to send the list. I'll put it in the OP as well. I tried searching your favorites on your Youtube channel as you suggested on the archived site, but I couldn't find anything! I might as well try to do a video tutorial myself, but I'm not sure it'll really happen xP

(or am i running an old version or something)

I thought this had already been addressed based on these posts (?):

What happened

Re: DDReamStudio - Official Guide

...no plans to write another line of ddream code myself.

but as to the "b" bug just minimize ddream, it's better than nothing I guess

[who_cares973]

Re: DDReamStudio - Official Guide

think you could make the code available so other people might try to improve upon it?
