Re: Where can I get Cmods??

I figured that this deserved its own topic, as there are probably enough people who would like to know how to do this. So I'll just copy and paste it from the topic I first posted it in.

Go to your Stepmania folder.

Open up the Themes folder from within the Stepmania folder.

Open up the default folder from within the Themes folder.

Open up the metrics.ini file with Notepad (if the computer wants to open it up in Wordpad, let it).

Do a search for "[ScreenOptionsMaster]". Right underneath that you will see a block of text that looks like this:

# Player options
Speed=11
SpeedDefault=mod,1x
Speed,1=mod,0.25;name,x0.25
Speed,2=mod,0.5x;name,x0.5
Speed,3=mod,0.75x;name,x0.75
Speed,4=mod,1x;name,x1
Speed,5=mod,1.5x;name,x1.5
Speed,6=mod,2x;name,x2
Speed,7=mod,3x;name,x3
Speed,8=mod,4x;name,x4
Speed,9=mod,8;name,8x
Speed,10=mod,C200;name,C200
Speed,11=mod,C400;name,C400

This is where all of the speed mods are set up. You can probably figure it out from here on your own, but just in case, here is a breakdown of what one of the lines does. Lets take this line:

Speed,4=mod,1x;name,x1

The part that reads 'Speed,4' means that it is an arrow speed mod and that it shows up as the fourth selectable choice on the list of arrow speed mods on the Player Options menu.

The "mod,1x" part is what the mod actually does - the speed of the arrows will be multiplied by the number you put here. As far as I know, Stepmania can handle pretty much any multiplier you put here. For a constant bpm mod, just put C followed by a number instead of a number followed by x.

The "name,x1" is just what the name of the mod will be on the options screen, and has no bearing on the actual arrow speed. However, sometimes the name of the mod won't show up on the Player Options screen at all, in which case you just need to select the blank space where the mod should be in order to use it (look at the box that tells you what arrow speed mod you have selected if you need to know what a blank spot is).

As far as I can tell, you can add however many mods you want. Just make sure that any lines you add for new mods follows the syntax of the lines already there. Oh, and make sure that whatever number follows the "Speed=" right underneath "# Player Options" is equal to the total number of speed mods you have, or else some of them won't be selectable.

Have fun.

I think you have to manually edit it. www.stepmaniathings.com for all the other stuff (themes, noteskins, announces etc) . Also do not edit the "name" of the mod, for it will generate an error. I set my C200 as C600, and C400 as C700. They still have the 2 and 4 labels but when selected use the 6 and 7 i set in metrics.

ps i use 3.9, not 4.0.

You have to edit your languages folder for the names to show up.
