[W.I.P.] SM5 - DDRX Theme

If your looking for colors, you can try this video, skip to around 25 seconds.

I have 5.09 and one older version, don't replace the metrics.ini file, as Inori have said, my theme contains a lot of external code tha is not in your theme, just copy the section that you need from my metrics file, and paste on yours, for the wheel just copy the metrics on the [MusicWheel] section, and take the file Scripts/03 Wheel.lua and place it in your theme scripts folder


Like Inori says it could be easy to implement, But! The noteskins will be different from standard notekins because the noteskin need to have all the notes colors to work, It will be implemented in a future I need first to finish the actual tasks.


Thanks, I've cheked a pair of videos, but some colors are confusing they are too fast or showing bad colors, I'll have to download them and check frame by frame. Thanks.


You need to create a folder with the name of the graphic that you like to condition, in the group sections case I have used "MusicWheelItem SectionCollapsed NormalPart" and "MusicWheelItem SectionExpanded NormalPart" I haven't uploaded them cause' are incomplete, but they are not so difficult, you could check the ddr2014, ddrx2ac or ddrng themes, they have some examples of conditional graphics

Can't figure out the group colors at all

toss this into metrics.ini

got an error Crash reason: Integer Divide-by-Zero

Don't just copy the code itself into metrics.
Also. ADD the code to the existing parts of metrics. The game loads metrics from the one that's loaded last. So say you have 2 [ScreenSelectMusic] areas.

If you edit the 1st one, you won't see the changes since the game will then load the 2nd area's metrics.

Anyways, To have it work correctly, try this.
NumSongGroupColors = 6
SongGroupColor1 = color "#FFFFFF"
SongGroupColor2 = color "#00CC00"
SongGroupColor3 = color "#FFFF00"
SongGroupColor4 = color "#33CCFF"
SongGroupColor5 = color "#FF00FF"
SongGroupColor6 = color "#FF9933"

replace the hex colors with your own.
To increase or decrease the amount of group colors, just edit "NumSongGroupColors" and then add another "SongGroupColor#" entry

thanks now i Just have to figure out to color the group like DDR SuperNOVA 2 is a cyan/blueish color for the group thing

Edit: Figure out how to do it but the graphic for the collaped and expanded is not changing the color just stays the same color

MadkaT, I hope you plan on re-coding the theme from scratch when you're finished. Using default as base is good for learning but for a solid theme, it's better to just do things from scratch.

I'm not saying this is a bad theme, it's just not a good idea to just add code on top of another theme.

Yeah Ino is right just start from scratch when your finished with it Mad

Yes, don't worry guys, I learn faster modifying than creating from scratch, I'm still learning LUA when the theme is done, I'll clear the commentedcodes, the unused codes and files I left there because still have objects from the default theme to remember that code is "missing" but don't worry, I'm advancing slowly cause the real life and the work but I will finish it and make it better. I've ripped some additional missing files for the select music, the sort difficulty banner and the pills for the groups in the difficulty sorting. I'll be busy this week, but I will try to get some news soon. Thanks to all for your feedback

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

Well I have some time this weekend, and I was messing again with the songwheel, I'm customizing the section banners:



And also have a pair of bugs like this



I think I'll refactor my section codes to avoid them. That's all to this point. I'll come back later.

I still must know how you got the the group colors to work been trying and makes the graphic disappear

Bug fixed, only missing one bug to finish

Difficulty sort is done!



I already have answered that to you in a previous post!

Yeah I tried that and the graphic disappeared for some reason just disappeared I changed the graphic into a greyscale but still didnt work imma see if i can try again



Still not working I have no idea what im doing wrong :/

I've explained the code by PM, and please don't post themes not related to the DDRX theme

-deleted-

What.
Are you doing.

Not to be rude but uh.
I think you're over complicating things kenny.

Yeah I know but hey I figured out the colors though and I realized i posted this in the wrong thread

This is getting good

Now: you should fix Difficulty list:
* Difficulties: default DDR colors (Order: blue -> yellow -> red -> green -> violet -> grey)
* Add bars (1-10 for SN Style or 1-20 for X2 CS style) and place next to difficulty numbers.

Remember: this list appears on both Regular play and Battle.

That would be hard to add im trying to add that to my SN2 theme but its kinda difficult to get that for me
