■Update Log
■2017.05.03
1. In Screen Evaluation, the theme can now memorize your tab key each time you change it, and will show the last choice by default.
2. You can add your own extended genre by adding new folder named 'Genres' into the "Themes" folder. Put some jackets named as "genre jacket beatmania.png", "genre jacket BeatStream.png",... etc in. The name of the jacket must be "genre jacket"+SPACE+the name of genre.
For example, a genre jacket named 'genre jacket BeatStream.png' or 'genre jacket BeatStream.jpg' implies a genre named 'BeatStream' .

this theme is sooooooo cooooool!!!

now i'll start to search the DDR A Announcer

No download link?

Check on the emote on the top of the theme information

can i get some more detailed instructions for this please? im confused

is it talking about these files? i thought you put them in bganimations -> screengameplay underlay?

What he probably means is that the folder that contain random movies are suppose to be put into the BGAnimations in the themes

No you put the folder in Themes I checked earlier

No you put the folder in Themes I checked earlier

---

but, put what folder in the "themes" folder? i know how to install themes in stepmania, thats not an issue. lmao. it doesnt make sense to me to put the character video folder in the theme's root folder or the stepmania 5 program files "themes" folder...

i did that
also did that.


edit:
ok, i seem to have got them to show up now, just by adding the screengameplayunderlay folder as is to the theme, but now music videos don't show up. they get replaced by dancer videos.

But update the licences on ScreenCompany!!! Some licences are removed and all Dancemania licences are replaced by Touhou/Vocaloid licences. Aslo, the licences display have reversed colors (white with black fonts instead of black with white fonts)

---

can i play this on 5.0.12 stepmania? or only in 5.0.9?

You can. You can't play the theme in older Stepmania versions below 5.0.9 (i think)

---

The DDR A theme is available for both 5.0.9 and 5.0.12

This theme is really great and looks really nice! My only kinda-critique is that having the little difficulty level above the song jacket like in the arcade would be really cool, but I'm not sure how hard that would be to implement. Also the clear lamp is there in the screenshots but doesn't appear in-game, I'm not sure if that was intentional?

---

Outdated EXTRA SAVIOR/EXCLUSIVE list.

Update:



Overwrite these sections on theme/BGAnimations/ScreenStageInformation decorations/Default.lua

---

i cant even see my best score below the groove radar..is there any button to press to show it?

Hit up and left simultaneously. To see all scores, hit down and left. To close it, hit down and right.

---

thank you!

Im in love.
