    Re: ITT: Solo packs

    Ahhh, now I see the song in my folder when I downloaded that 200 or so solo files. But stepmania won't even LOAD the song, which was why I could not find it. >.>

    edit: It seems that the .sm file for HST's History of the Moon can't even be READ by stepmania, since it's constantly giving me errors in ddream studios. Why is it doing this?

    edit #2: OMFG I had to change the name of the song to it's original format since it was all scrambled and ****. I've NEVER had so much trouble dealing with one song....>.>

      Here's a tip, make multiple charts to layer additional sounds.

      Standard = Audible sounds
      Heavy = Additional sounds
      Challenge = Every possible sound

        I do see a lot of step artists do that, but I have also seen a lot follow one particular beat for one difficulty, then do something completely different for another. I figured that would be nice, since the piano and drums are completely separated from each other and would result in a LOT of chaos, really. =x

        I'll probably do that with my second song, tho. =3 It's gonna take a LONG time to step, tho, since it'll be even longer than my first. Yay for Long and Marathon songs. =D

          That would make the hardest difficulty. Also, avoid long and marathon songs. It's longer to step, and less convenient to play.

          Also, almost any artist from the JAPAN topic is very suitable for Solo. One particular being Shirajira Sawa Kyou.

            yes definitely, if you're new to making stepcharts start off with things that are short, straightforward and that you're already familiar with, then branch off into hostile territory

              c1 bass really helps when you're starting out










              Why would you put that in your signature? You've lost your signature rights for a month. (You'll get them back on March 10th, 2012.)

                BASS GOES ON COLUMN 1
                SNARE GOES ON COLUMN 6
                EVERYTHING ELSE GOES IN THE MIDDLE


                there's ur solo theory

                        I like to have my bass on the middle finger more, since it's more Beatmania style. That, and you can't go giving your computer The Finger while you're playing.

                          Re: ITT: Solo packs

                          I actually find that forcing the bass to be on column 1 makes it feel very awkward and far-left-hand-biased at times, so don't actually follow my advice plz

                              What is this crazy talk about restricting yourself to put an instrument on a specific column?
