"Focul tău nu ne mai încălzește"
That message is what I get when trying to start up Stepmania 5... Apparently this "error" prevents me from starting it altogether.

Does anyone have an idea of what's causing this error, or better yet, how to get rid of it?

I think it must've been an early version or something (got it last fall IIRC). I'd later solve this error by downloading a newer version instead.

that's what i'm supposed to tell you then.

try unofficial nightly builds. It's newer than what official SM5 has.

I'm just going to jump in to tell you to use the latest version from code.google.com/p/sm-ssc. Don't use nightly builds unless you're testing, they're probably broken.

more updates doesn't mean it's better. what if all the updates are shitty, and don't work properly.

dieKatze88 has been kind enough to provide an automated nightly build service for StepMania 5. Currently, only Windows binaries are being produced.

These builds are made from untested code. They will have more features and bugs than the latest SM5 release. If you don't want to deal with mysterious problems and occasional builds that don't work at all, download SM5 from http://code.google.com/p/sm-ssc

You can get the nightly builds here: http://smnightly.katzepower.com/

THESE BUILDS ARE NOT SUPPORTED. IF YOU LOSE DATA, IT IS NOT OUR FAULT. YOU HAVE TAKEN THAT RISK BY DECIDING TO USE THESE BUILDS.

That said, we appreciate any and all bug reports.
besides SM5 is shitty anyway
so yeah maybe you can totally listen to what razorblade said

Users still can't get out of the bugs from official one (see http://ssc.ajworld.net/sm-ssc/bugtracker/my_view_page.php). Updates do not always limited to NEW FEATURES, they have also BUG FIXES too. I also don't like the installer version of that official one.

Download whichever one looks prettier, and if it doesn't work how you want it to, download the other one.

lots of "what if" syndrome. lol

They also forgot that official ones are also based from nightly builds too, but lesser updates. They can release anything from nightly builds anytime to sm-ssc google and call it "official".

The nightlies are not official because the nightlies are not official. There is actually a decision process leading up to a release. It's not like some guy comes out of the corner and yells "OKAY, STEPMANIA 5 BETA 2 COMES OUT NOW". There are goals set for that release that have to be met before it comes out. The nightlies don't have any of that and are just meant to be a way for developers to look at the changes they have made in action.
