DDR X2 CS Theme ver2.1 for SM 3.9a, SM 3.9 Plus REDUX and SM AMX

indeed it was. every shock chart has the thunderstorm BG in X and X2 CS.

---

I can't get it to open :s
Any help please!!
WinRAR refuses to open it

try to rename the the file to original filename shown on download page ( to DDR X2.zip).

---

nope, still doesn't work..

been downloading for now... testing to confirm if it is really broken... if it is, i will upload a new main theme update (final update) 14 hours upon this posting.

But in the mean time, try to upgrade your zip/rar software... or use other extracting softwares. or download using firefox.

---

okay thanks..

tried to change it to a zip file and repaired it.. it repaired some of the items but most refused to work.

I'll await your verdict on this thread.

Zip extract result:

- still works fine in my part; no error dialog displayed. maybe it's your zip/rar extracting software that got the problem (I use WinRAR too).

---

okay, thats strange.. seems to be working fine now.

Thanks.

It should be an error when you were downloading.

DDR X2 CS Theme ver. 2.0 updates:
--- new Assist Tick sound (source from DDR SN2 to X2 CS). Assist tick delay timing was fixed to match any perfectly synced simfiles.
--- Added Song Artist's name in gameplay. Only for DDR 1st and DDR X2 songs only. The other group (DDR 2ndMIX to DDR X1) is currently working in development. Those will be included in the new patch in the future.

First post in this thread also updated.

Wow this is a weird coincidence. I randomly felt like updating your X2 theme I had (I had something like 0.7b) and find out the thread was updated

So I guess the artist display thing has to be programmed manually, right? Where do you do that?

---

You're right... Artist names are image overlays under ScreenGameplay overlay... same concept as in screen stage's cd images display... so much more tedious to do... :-(

---

Why on Earth is that necessary? The first in the groove used an alpha build and showed the song title/artist/step artist at the start of each song, data pulled from the .sm file not an image overlay. There's no reason that the song title and artist can't persist throughout the song if you tweak the metrics.

sillybear, did you include the noteskins I've sent to you by mail on the file you've uploaded?

I think it's only possible with SM4 and up... Right?

---

That's what I heard. Takuya mentioned that a few times in his theme thread. He would of had it in his X theme if it was possible in 3.9.

---

i tried using that theme on Stepmania AMX (i forget about noteskins)


edit: i'm gonna find something how i remove "Artist :" thing. so, it can display only name of artist

---

sillybear used Aldo_MX's latest build of StepMania which includes the artist name displayed in the gameplay.

Just tried this theme.. Can't non-PFC score be AAA?
Like this, I got 996 but it's AA because I had 2 greats..\

Try this solution that I and sillybear made:

Go to StepMania.ini located on the "Data" folder to where you installed StepMania and copy/paste the following:
