Official Simfile Notifications

The Double difficulties for SUKI MELO are all 1 in the current simfile.

EDIT: Healing Vision (X-Special) Double Challenge's difficulty is also 1.

Are butterfly's 2008 x edit ratings going to be fixed for the arcade ratings? Same for Venus.

Is there a known problem with the syncing of the Universe 1 simfiles? I downloaded them in June.


I got similar scores all throughout the Universe 1 simfiles.

A comparison from Universe 3:





btw, this whole problem could have been avoided if you had hit the button to regenerate the pack when you fixed the sync.

UNIVERSE1 files are on hold at the moment anyway. We don't have direct rips of the audio yet. Until we do, those simfiles won't be updated for the time being.

DDR 2nd Mix
AM-3P has the Oni charts listed on the information page when they're not included in the sm file.

DDR 3rd Mix
Dam Dariram's S-Oni difficulty rating is absent while the D-Oni difficulty is there.

DDR 5th Mix
Ecstasy's Oni charts are present within the sm file.

DDR MAX
Candy's Oni charts are not present within the sm file.

DDR MAX2
B4U remix's -charts are not present in the sm file
Celebrate Nite remix's -charts are not present in the sm file
Still in my Heart remix's -charts are not present in the sm file
Wild Rush remix's -charts are not present in the sm file

DDR Extreme
Kiss Me All Night Long's Oni charts are not present within the sm file.

DDR Solo
Dream A Dream's Double charts are not present in the sm file
Together & Forever's Doubles charts are not present in the sm file

DDR BASS
Don't Clock Me's doubles difficulty is not present in the simfile's information page


I am well aware that the charts can be found in their respective category - mainly the NSMM getting complete charts - but I have listed them as Ecstasy's Oni charts can be found under 5th mix.

The above are the inconsistencies that I found while looking through the AC simfiles. Hopefully, I made this easy enough for you to fix so that the files can be uniform.

DDR EXTREME (US/PS2)

MAXIMIZER is not featured in this section, either.

---

DDR Ultramix 2
.59 (remix) comes up with a blank .zip.

In going over the simfiles for 3rd mix through stepmania, I noticed that LET THEM MOVE has a different set of step charts as does 20, November (DDR ver). These two simfiles are also missing the Heavy charts in Doubles.

---

I remember when there was a Dancing Stage 1.5 category in the arcade section, and no one bothered to submit them. Ah, good times. But seriously, what's up with the 20 November (DDR Ver) and LET THEM MOVE stepcharts?

---

Those are the original stepcharts from DDR 2ndMIX CS; they got new charts in 3rdMIX. Since they are in the 3rdMIX folder, they should use the 3rdMIX steps; they have the correct ratings but not steps.

The missing DOUBLE steps are expected in this case; there were no Expert DOUBLE steps for those songs in 2ndMIX CS; again, they were added for 3rdMIX.

DDR FFP simfiles updated finally.

You sir, are f***ing awesome!!!

BUMP: I noticed HOW TO PLAY (English) is in the DDR X AC (JP) section. You mean to tell me that song's on the Japanese version?

Still waiting for Disney Grooves. How long has that game been out again? lol

---

The game has been out since April of this year. So far it has been 4 months. IIRC though I could be wrong here, the banners and bgs are done and the step charts are done all that is left (I think) is have the step chart sync'ed up the music and that might take a couple of weeks, but like I said I could be wrong so don't quote me on that.

i doubt there are only few simfiles in DDR 2ndMIX with Beatmania IIDX Club version 2... are they only additional included in the original AC version?

---

There are 13 songs in Club Version, and 32 (?) songs in Club Version 2.

It looks like the only songs uploaded so far as songs that exist in other games outside of Club Version. Notice they all have Double Maniac steps? Those are probably the only songs for which high-quality source materials exist. The PSX version of the game uses Redbook audio, so it would be easy to get high quality audio and graphic rips. Howver, think that on the actual cabinet, the attached IIDX machine generates the audio?

Alan has updated all of the files so that they are accurate to Dance Dance Revolution SuperNova AC, meaning that if it appeared on that game, it was updated. The others were updated because he already had flac versions for the songs.

The main issue with the club mix songs is that the others haven't made an appearance on an AC mix after that one. And to make it worse, there is no DDR soundtrack that has the club mix songs.

For the time being, he's putting those songs on hold while he continues(?) to update the songs he already has in flac format.



2009-08-28, 23:21 edit:ABSOLUTE (Cuff -N- Stuff it Mix) under the FESTIVAL category is missing it's mp3 as a separate download. It is in the zip file, however.

i'm not too sure if this is the correct forum, but i just recently downloaded the background video rips to extreme 2, strike, ultrimix2, ds max, and i couldnt help but notice that the sync was off on some of the files.

to name a few, i noticed that be lovin' was off by one whole beat on all the singles and doubles charts, and the off set was a little off on un duex trois and burnin' the floor (blue fire mix). many of the files did work fine; however, i believe that all the sm's that came bundled with the video rips need another look at to ensure higher quality of the sync.

for the record, i made sure to overwrite the sm's that were in my original song folders with the sm's that came bundled with the videos, so no folder has 2 different sm files. also, i did not check all the sm files that came with the video rips, so im not sure about which other files are off sync. the most problematic area i noticed was in the extreme 2 revival folder.

i dont know whether they are being worked on, or if anyone even noticed, but id thought id just mention this.

I don't maintain the background video files so I'm not really sure what's up with them.

Just wondering... What's the limit on # of Categories you can have?
