[SM 3.95] Simple question on old version + custom speed mods

So, I'm still using 3.95 as I find it to be extremely stable and easy to work with.

So, my question is, is there a global file that can be edited in each theme that tells it what mods to show?

Thank you. All I needed was which file I had to edit overall.

And as a side note, I have zero problems running the version I have. Whatever works for me, works for me. Whatever works for you all, works for you all.

so ya have fun with that and enjoy using the most unstable sm version in the history of sm

Why aren't you using SM5a3 (or 3.9+/Redux if you're so inclined on 3.9)? They're even more "stable and easy to work with" (except for .ssc files, oh god)

This exactly.

Because 3.9 works fine for me. What is this inclination to push me to 4 or 5? I don't have problems with 3.9 where I choose to use it, and I don't need most of the new features. All I needed was a simple question answered about an old version. Can we please let it be? The question has been answered satisfactorily for me. Thank you.

What is this inclination to push me to 4 or 5?

But you're using 3.95, the worst build ever... At least use 3.9+ Redux if you're that stubborn.

Mon[07:13:09]am <Jousway> can someone please explain to my why 3.95 is so famous, like I just dont understand how it became the most used version
Mon[07:13:31]am <@shakesoda> it's not
Mon[07:13:37]am <@shakesoda> it is actually really not the most used
Mon[07:13:45]am <@shakesoda> excluding itg places where it makes sense
Mon[07:13:49]am <TheSchaf> maybe people asked that question so often that it got famous because of that!
Mon[07:14:03]am <@shakesoda> in all seriousness
Mon[07:14:05]am <Jousway> yeah well shakesoda, 3.95 users are basicly the "loudest" users I deal with
Mon[07:14:08]am <@shakesoda> "hey check out stepmania"
Mon[07:14:09]am <TheSchaf> i think i read similiar questions like 3 times now :p
Mon[07:14:18]am <@shakesoda> "here ya go *link to 3.95*"
Mon[07:15:01]am <TheSchaf> well what else is therE?
Mon[07:15:01]am <@TeruFSX> 3.95 has a crazy vocal minority of people using it
Mon[07:15:07]am <TheSchaf> 4 has been discountinued, right?
Mon[07:15:10]am <@TeruFSX> yeah
Mon[07:15:14]am <@TeruFSX> there's 5 and 3.9
Mon[07:15:16]am <TheSchaf> 5 has "alpha" at its name, so that might scare people
Mon[07:15:23]am <@TeruFSX> 3.95 isn't an alpha
Mon[07:15:28]am <TheSchaf> "alpha? oh, sounds like a lot of bugs, lets use old version!"
Mon[07:15:32]am <@TeruFSX> 3.95's some random-ass development version
Mon[07:15:35]am <TheSchaf> nah i mean sm-ssc 5
Mon[07:15:38]am <@TeruFSX> they pulled off the tree one day
Mon[07:15:45]am <@TeruFSX> and said YUP THIS WORKS
Mon[07:15:50]am <@TeruFSX> without checking anything
Mon[07:15:57]am <@TeruFSX> so it's less than an alpha
Mon[07:16:24]am <TheSchaf> my point is if someone goes to sm5 download page and reads "alpha 3" he might think thats something really buggy maybe not even playable yet
Mon[07:16:33]am <TheSchaf> which is ofcourse misleading because its based on old SM versions
Mon[07:16:51]am <@TeruFSX> that was the idea behind "preview", it doesn't sound as buggy imo
Mon[07:18:02]am <Jousway> 5 is less of an alpha than 3.95 if you ask me
Mon[07:18:40]am <@shakesoda> 3.95 is such an anomaly
Mon[07:18:48]am <@shakesoda> because it uh, didn't ever officially exist really
Mon[07:18:53]am <Jousway> 3.95 should have never existed
Mon[07:18:59]am <@TeruFSX> was it even a release actually
Mon[07:19:02]am <@shakesoda> it was never officially supported.
Mon[07:19:04]am <@shakesoda> no it wasn't
Mon[07:19:09]am <@TeruFSX> it wasn't even a nightly?
Mon[07:19:10]am <@shakesoda> the build was by smo guys
Mon[07:19:19]am <@shakesoda> axlecrusher or something
Mon[07:19:26]am <Jousway> yeah
Mon[07:19:28]am <@shakesoda> it was a random nightly
Mon[07:19:30]am <@shakesoda> basically
Mon[07:19:45]am <@shakesoda> and people found that it was pretty close to itg2 at some point

No one in their right mind is pushing you to use StepMania 4. But I digress...

It's not that people think it's wrong of you to use an unsupported fork of the StepMania project, it's that people think you're missing out. Fewer and fewer people will be using any ideration of 3.9, getting help like this will be harder and harder as time goes on. Try asking someone to help you troubleshoot a copy of DWI, anywhere.

This might sound offtopic, but what OS do you use if I may ask?

...told him to have fun with the most broken version of sm known to man, which is a fact, and also made a post about even while its know to be the most broken version people still use it which absolutly blows my mind. and I get -15 score

and then you people (excluding Aeron and MaxX) decide to rip Rubes

"Ripping" may not be the right word. "Persisting" is more accurate, and you're still doing it.
