Last time I talked about this back here, it was extremely incomplete. Most songs had incorrect BPMs with only beginner difficulty. I learned how to use arrow vortex, so now all of my songs have at least heavy and beginner, plus they're synced correctly. All of the songs have nice background videos and banners, so I think the pack is going pretty nicely so far. Hopefully you guys will give me feedback, so I can know what i need to do to improve the pack. Thanks!

hmm.
first peeks
. the song choices are quite unusual, to say the least. i don't personally recommend for one to step intro songs, due to the fact that they are too short most of the time. it is recommended for one to step songs that are over a minute of length.
. i highly recommend for the graphics to be .png images.
- i don't recommend stretching images for banners.
densha de go 2 intro
- doublesteps.
- song is too short.
+ file is well synced.
- audio is too quiet.
- title and artist should be "The Invincible Wheel" and "ZUNTATA", respectively. subtitle can be "Densha de GO! 2 (1998)", but in this case, it's only optional.
densha de go 3 intro
- the piano solo part (beginning) is not synced quite well.
+ but the second half is synced very well.
- doublesteps.
- audio is too quiet.
- song is too short.
- title and artist are wrong. i'm not sure what is the song used in this. the closest match to the song that i have found was "PROLOGUE -Promise-" by ZUNTATA. the subtitle can be changed to "Densha de GO! 3 (2000)", but in this case, it's only optional.
Densha De Go Nagoya Railroad intro
- the 4-16-8 sections at the beginning should be changed to 4-12-12 sections (picture)
- audio quality is pretty bad.
- doublesteps.
+ song is synced well.
- song is too short.
- title and artist should be changed to "Opening Demo" and "ZUNTATA", respectively. in this case, i recommend adding the subtitle "Densha de GO! Nagoya Railroad (2000)".
- please don't put jumps in the end of stream sections.
Densha De Go Professional Intro
- some rhythms feel odd.
- audio quality is pretty bad.
- doublesteps.
+ song is synced well.
- title and artist should be changed to "Let's Go! Train-Train" and "ZUNTATA", respectively. the subtitle can be changed to "Densha de GO! Professional (1999)", but in this case, it's only optional.
Densha De Go Professional 2 Intro
- the 4-16-8 sections in the picture should be changed to 4-12-12 sections. i also recommend shortening the freezes. (picture)
. a few doublesteps.
+ song is synced well.
. song is quite a bit short to my taste.
- title and artist are incorrect. as i couldn't find the actual source audio, i suggest you should change the title, subtitle and artist to "Opening", "Densha de GO! Professional 2 (2002)" and "ZUNTATA", respectively.
Densha de GO! Intro
- doublesteps
- audio is too quiet.
+ song is synced well.
- song is too short.
- some hold/roll placement is weird.
- title and artist should be changed to "Go! Go! Train" and "ZUNTATA", respectively. the subtitle can also be changed to "Densha de GO! (1997)", but in this case, it's only optional.
conclusion
there are many mistakes, but overall, not bad for a beginner.
i recommend you watch/read some tutorials for stepchart creating, graphics, etc.

hope this helps.

Thanks for the feedback. So i'm guessing the main problem with my charts is doublestepping. My question is, what do most people count as doublestepping? Is it just using the same foot for two or more arrows in a row?
Also about the song length: This was just meant to be a starting point for my charting, and I wanted to step some unusual songs. Because of the length, I might convert these over to PIU and put them in the short cut channel eventually.
Another thing, where did you dint the source audio? I got my audio off of youtube, which might not be the best option. That's probably why a couple of the audios sounded bad. It's also why my artist and titles were off.
Hopefully my files will become better as I chart more, so thank you!

this is a visual example of a doublestep (example taken from the simfile shuffle 2015 thread)
L indicates left foot
R indicates right foot
as one can see, in this pattern, there is a part where one faces backwards for quite a long time
and nobody wants that
in this case, most people would prefer to use their left foot to hit the 5th arrow to avoid facing backwards
hence the name "doublestepping"

Ok, so double stepping is just when you start facing backwards. I've fixed my charts to avoid that now, so I just need to fix the audio.
