"touch n go ride the flow"

Last updated: 2015-04-26 10:48pm
Hello all!

I am currently working on a new StepMania project. I have everything I need, but one thing is preventing me from actually finishing this in the future - simfiles.Oops

These files will be DDR-styled and will include licenses, crossovers, "konami originals" (I doubt anyone can actually get legit ones),and groove radar specials. Once I get a song list going, I can update this thread. Would anyone like to help me out?

Thanks!
~Marten

There a reason you can't make the simfiles yourself?

I'm not very skilled. Normally, when I create simfiles i tend to create them more to one side of the pad, I have some trouble getting them synced up, etc.

I was just asking if anyone wanted to help. You don't have to help me if you're not interested.

By the way, if anyone does help I'll credit them in the project.

why should people step songs for you? is there some kind of an incentive? besides, practice makes perfect for making simfiles.

*sigh* OK, I was only asking if anybody wanted to make some simfiles that would be put in a game made with the StepMania engine. The game would have everyone who stepped songs in the credits. If no one wants to help me out, then that's fine. I'll just have to suck it up and make over 100+ simfiles.

I understand what you're saying chewi. If I have to make them myself then so be it. I was just asking if anybody would be interested in stepping songs.

100 songs is too ambitious for anybody.

@SM MaxX I was first going to see if anyone would help. If somebody was interested then I already have some songs listed.
@chewi I guess you're right, but DDR games normally have at least 60-80.

That's a lot of simfiles. If you're not too experienced with making simfiles, why not start low? 15-20 songs is perfect for people trying to gain practice in simfile making.

If you want to get better at it, I'd recommend looking around for popular packs (ZIv Summer Contests 2014 & 2013 are a good start) and playing around, seeing what you enjoy and don't enjoy about the ones you play, etc.

Thanks for the advice everyone! I'll keep practicing!

If anyone could give me feedback on what they think about this file, I have a file that I've completed (I've worked on it for quite a while). It's an EXTRA STAGE style stepping of Evans.

Sorry if it's off sync. I really can't sync songs perfectly.

You sure you want to create a 100+ simfiles project? From what I experiencing back in my first time, that's pretty bad idea. 'cause you will abandon that project eventually except you are pretty determined. I suggest you to create a pack consisting 15-20 simfiles, or individuals first if you want to improve your simfiling quality. FYI DDR also starts its game debut with less than 20 songs IIRC.

Just use MixMeister BPM Analyzer or some equivalent to get the BPM, then use the AutoSync Song feature in Stepmania 5 to sync the offset.

I use MixMeister, but I didn't know about the AutoSync feature. Is that where you press a key (i forgot which one) and the offset changes according to how you play the song?

Just in case, I only have the ES and EES song list right now. I for some reason love to start with the fun songs.

Evans /DJ YOSHITAKA (I think this one doesn't need to be done)
Far east nightbird /Nekomata Master+

L.A. EVOLVED /NAOKI underground (needs a challenge chart, no?)
PARADISE LOST /Ryu* vs L.E.D.-G

I activate Auto-Sync by pressing ESC in the editor and going to Options, then near the bottom it will have an option for Sync Song. Then play through your file and it should sync it.

Then make sure to double the BPM given for the boss songs.

Yeah, as others said, a hundred songs for your first project is... well, not really going to happen. And the original DDR 1st had 12 songs, I think...

I can see what you're saying. What I'm probably going to do is release the game with only the 20 licenses. About a few weeks later, I'll add a few songs to the other categories (returning licenses, new Konami original, bemani crossovers, groove radar specials) with each one adding an ES song to the game. That way, I can create the game and there will be incentive to play it!

Don't hurt me but I have to implement the unlock system for this to work!
