    Uh...

    I'm wondering if it's possible to put a song you have on stepmania? I'm not really sure how you do this or if its even possible to do it... I read the stickied thread on how to get songs onto stepmania, but from what I understand is what to do after you download the song. Can anyone explain please? ^^ Thanks~

    Re: Uh...

    After you download the song, the actual files (.sm, .mp3, etc) have to be placed inside a song folder which is inside a group folder which is inside the /Songs/ folder of your /Stepmania/ directory.

    For example:

    /Stepmania/Songs/My Creations/Drawcia Sorceress/ (all the files go here)

    When extracting, check to see if it already has a song folder and/or group folder embedded in it so you don't put it too deep or too shallow.

      In really simple terms

      1) Extract the files so it's in a folder with the song name like "Rainbow Rainbow"
      2) Go to (Assuming you're drive is C:\ and you're using Windows) C:\Program Files\StepMania\Songs\
      3) Create a folder...it can be named anything...this is how you sort your music into categories
      4) Put the song in that folder.

        post-dumps abstractly represent the existential nihilism that the song invokes in the listener with negative space, evoking the ephemeral nature of the mind - the journey of stepmania begins in hope yet soon becomes corroded into a dialectic of futility, leaving only a sense of dread and the unlikelihood of a new synthesis
