    SM n00b

    yeah thats me ; im not a patient person and i cant get my songs to work in the game, so i just quit trying ; i really enjoy ffr but now its kinda gettin boring, so i need something else like SM; r there songs specific to SM and DWI, or are they interchangeable; i put each song in the song folder, inside another genre folder, and then in its specific song folder; i must be an idiot ; could someone give me an idiot proof way of doing this because im really an idiot;

    Here's the folder breakdown I use.

    StepMania >>> Songs >>> (*1) Arch0wlOriginals >>> (*2) Payon >>> *song junk* (.mp3 , .dwi , images)

    (*1) Create a folder for the place you got it from. This doesn't really matter. *SONG CATEGORY*

    (*2) Create a folder SPECIFICALLY for the song you want. For example, if you wanted to d/l Arch's Payon song. Open up the .zip file and create a folder INSIDE the SONG CATEGORY called whatever the name of the song is. Extract the .dwi, .mp3, and the two images into the *SUBCATEGORY SONG FOLDER*. Refresh and load up StepMania. Now you have your first song.

    If you get songs from other websites, you can simply name the *SONG CATEGORY FOLDER* according to where you got it from. (i.e. BemaniStyleOriginals) and make new *SUBCATEGORY SONG FOLDER*'s inside the *SONG CATEGORY FOLDER* according to the song name and extract all the *SONG JUNK* into it.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    I hope that helped. It took me 5 whole minutes to type that.

      my question is does the name of the folders really matter; like if the category was plasmix and i named the folder as X, and the song was makaveli, but i put it in folder M, would there be a problem

            These two files are extremely essential to loading the song :

            (filename).dwi

            and

            (filename).mp3

            Only mp3 music will work on Stepmania. Here are the other two common files.

            (filename for song banner).png
            (filename for song b/g).png

            Once you have everything in the right place, Stepmania will load the songs. When it opens, you will know if it worked if you look in the top left corner. It will say "15 songs found" or whatever how many you did.

                        Um...even though your post was like in May, and responding to it now is completely stupid, I can offer a place. I saw this in another thread and it was good:

                            Sorry, I meant to write:

                            try it again now. Just click Downloads and the spanish file thingy then you'll get a choice of mixes.
