    Arrows colors have a meaning?

    I searched the forum a little and I didn't find the answer to my question?

    The colors of the arrows have a meaning?

    There's blue, red, sometimes light blue and etc.

    Does one give more points or than another?

    They show you what type of note it is.

    Red = Quarter notes
    Blue = Eighth notes
    Yellow = Sixteenth notes etc

    It makes it easier to read the patterns and see what you need to do on the harder/faster songs.

      No, this is to help you keep tempo. Red arrows are right on the beat (4th notes, there are 4 beats in a measure). Blue are in between red (8th notes), then yellow (16th notes), etc. etc.

      I literally knew I would get ninja'd haha.

        To elaborate:

        4th: Red
        8th: Blue
        12th: Purple
        16th: Yellow
        24th: Pink
        32nd: Orange
        48th: Light Blue
        64th: Green
        Other: White

        I believe that is correct.

        Edit: Or white may only be associated with 128th notes.

          Purple are my favorite.

          ....anyways, until I finally figured out that they were in correlation to the beat, they totally messed me up. Godforbid a red and blue note flew by at the same time...I freaked out. Anyways, good luck!
          The weight of what I say depends on how you feel.

                  You probably need another program than Stepmania to get a white arrow then.

                    No, you have to imput them manually into the .sm D: then save it and then reload it and it gets put into the .dwi

                    Unless I'm wrong o.O
