Stepmania/OpenITG lua dump

I don't think Taro ever made a lua pack formally (feel free to correct me on this), though he has a bunch of stuff floating around. My personal favorite is the final stage for UK SRT 1 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J6AwTVozORQ).

But now that Aegis brought up packs, I'm pretty sure Jayce is the only one that made a non-tournament gimmick pack (though I'm working on making the half gimmick pack that I wanted to a while ago actually good). Taro and WinDEU have their respective UK SRT and SRTs (Divinelegy has them all, so just search them).

But as for me, I make terrible things and release them individually, like so:


Chaoz Twilight, a chart where if you're MA isn't good enough the screen gets swallowed by Yukari's gaps. (OpenITG only!)

Tetris on Crack, my 4th place (of 17) file for the gimmick competition in August. It lives up to its name pretty well.

Helicopter, where you fly a helicopter and dodge black rectangles walls.

Heart-Shaped Bullets, where I take the Touhou chart thing to its logical conclusion and make you have to dodge bullets with one's feet.

There's more that I've done, but these would be the highlights, in my opinion. I might dump the rest later.

The Helicopter and Heart-Shaped Bullets were awesome...

@Aegis/NXCProductions: Thanks! I've been trying to go further out of the box ever since Zetorux made the Ghastly Gorge chart (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dr2Du26jj3k&feature=plcp - I can't believe I forgot to mention this one), which knocked the Tetris chart out of the top 3.

Also, I reuploaded The Cure, as NXC informed me it got deleted for some reason. No idea why that happened...

(And 100th post! Of course it's on a gimmick thread.)

owww yeaaaaa

trying this before playing my usual MMORPG game now

---

Might as well add in my first, terrible attempt.


I mean sure, it's simple, even the course is simple, though some effects don't enable for some reason.
Ah well, I'm not gonna go about fixing something that's been done for two months.

I want to get into the more interactive side, but I don't want to bother people about it, so I'll just stick to basic things.
Maybe even learn some ACTUAL foreground stuff lol.

First of all, I loved your chart, don't go hating on it.

Second of all:

Do that, I'd be happy to help. That goes for anyone else too.

---

Eh Warp taught me the basics of foregrounding and lua. What does that tell you? :V

---

Lua dump? Lua dump, with UKSRT3 wrapping up, I figured that it's a good idea to dump some lua in a lua dump.

Already shown this to Patorikku^^



It's just an experiment on an effect I had in mind about playfields doing different directions of lua effects (ignore the other arrows on the sides of the screen, side effect of the flip/invert mods combined with beat), so along with some basic bobbing, and mod-dickwavery, I managed to make something look 1 player, but it isn't. :V It's only about 30 minutes of work but whatever~

oh by the way warpdrive, why Heart-Shaped Bullets doesn't work on me while Helicopter does?

---

@NXC: Are you using the noteskin included in the package? Because 4-directional support is needed I had to whip up a noteskin to make it work (and you need to use it). Failing that, what theme are you using?

(One of my other charts already had unknown bugs, so hopefully this one doesn't go under too...)

Oh, also, I'm making a pack with some gimmicks (and hey, maybe I'll actually finish this time). Here is a preview:



*EDIT: Also, NXC, what version are you using? You may need OpenITG, I've never tested it with 3.95 (and it will not work in 3,4,or 5). Maybe that helps?

---

oh my god I forgot to change this

and I'm using OpenITG + ITG3 theme (sometimes I use ITG2 theme or ITG Empress just for fun)

---

That should be fine. There should be tutorials around if you haven't added one before - don't forget to edit the metrics of the theme in question.

Let me know if you have any issues.

---

WARP. I REFUSE TO LET YOU WIN. I'm going to catch up if it's the last thing I do. :I

Relevancy to the thread: I'm giving a spoiler here. Don't want it? Don't read it. :V

So I'm making a new Banana Shoes file. My first one was from atpunk01. Now this one still has my previous file's sample music BUT it's xXJerryTerryXx's remix. I know this isn't really lua but it's relevant because this thread is about manipulating crap in Stepmania and musIC files are included :V

LONG SPOILER RUNNIN'

---

Hope you don't mind the bump, but this is probably best here instead of its own thread.



It's a minigame collection, like Taro's Mawaru series or Jayce's Gay4Gimmix. And it has some references to some older things I've done too, so it works as a compilation of sorts.

---

I approve of this highly. Well done, Warp. Well done. You succeeded in not only making me rage but letting me have fun too :V
