[SM5 THEME] DanceDanceRevolution Next Generation ~Release~

Great theme Although mp3 is a bit bad for looping, as it adds silence padding. It is best to use ogg for a seamless loop. I redid some of your music loops in ogg after removing the silence padding, and it seamlessly loops in SM now. I hope you don't mind

its great and all lol but its lagging alil on my ubuntu machine is there a way we can resolve the lagging issue?

get a better computer

its not my computer cause openITG works fine on there

Thanks.

yeah I can't get it to work.

are you running beta 3? cause it works on beta 3 except i get lag in the select music and the doors

You are looking at the absolutely necessary, but very visually unimpressive _fallback theme. You probably nested this custom theme in your Themes directory too deeply. The directories should go like...

%appdata%\StepMania 5\Themes\DDR Next Generation\

You can refer to this if you need a visual.

i think my lagging is from ubtuntu imma just go to windows xp cause stepmania will run alot fast on there

Your lagging is most likely from the dozens of errors the theme encounters whenever you do anything.

---

Writing hundreds (if not thousands) of Lua warnings to a logfile each second can cause stutter/lag, too. Perhaps we should wait for the theme's author to fix these errors.

---

no like the lag comes from the selectmusic screen when i choose a song and it does it in the doors

I opened StepMania with DDRNG as my theme, sort of played one song (quit out early), exited to the title screen, and quit StepMania. The entire process took less than 30 seconds, during which 8771 Lua warnings were written to disk.

Processing eight thousand, seven hundred, seventy one Lua warnings can cause stutter/lag. Perhaps we should wait for the theme's author to fix these errors.

yeah we should wait until he comes on

I still can't find a way to access the mods menu.

Press the slash key in the music select screen.

Thank You. I'm not used to the new UI for Winzip.

What would I assign that key to on an arcade cabinet?

you can find out the key in the stepmania settings and if you find it change the "/" to the button

Umm. I don't think there's any arcade cabinet with a key like that... I know the ITG 2 cab has an extra button but I'm pretty sure that's always being used.

Alternatively, if you do somehow happen to have an extra, unused button, map it to "Select" in the keymaps.
