[W.I.P.] SM5 - DDRX Theme

Well there's time for a little bit news:

Splitted song information in lines and changed for a testing font:


Added game over placeholder:

All text of song title (and karaoke) use the RussellSquare font, default font for SN1, 2 and DDR X.
And the score number is yellow, not pink in P1 and not blue in P2.

---

so can I make it not spanish

Truth be told I downloaded an alpha of this theme and it can work in English.

On a side note, it's making decent progress...

---

Yes, I know, that was only a test for the song information ;) and for the scores, I still haven't changed the font. I try to complete the song info with the original font and the black background.


The theme is shown in spanish, cause that is the locale of my SM5, if you have your locale in English, the theme will be shown in english. SM5 theme base is multilanguage.




Thanks for your comments. I'm new making Stepmania themes.

---

Anyone knows what is this font?

looks like Helvetica to me but honestly i dont know.

---

It looks like Helvetica for me too. I'll generate it later to check it out. Thanks.

And the today update:

Cleared screen added and completed!:

Dang bro you're better than me at making Stepmania 5 themes LOL might try to port the DDR SuperNOVA 2 theme to sm5

Here are 1280x720 images of the company images.
The correct order is:
Konami>Bemani>e-amuse>rsa>Screentitle

No. The correct order is:
Boot (start program)>Warning>Konami>Bemani>e-amuse>RSA>INTRO MOVIE>screen title>how to play>demo>ranking>Warning (cycled)

It's Helvetica in the System Layer. Since DDRSN has used this font for credits, conection status and PASELI money.

---

Is there even a ranking screen in ddr x to x3 cause i played it before i didnt see one

Ranking is exclusive of SM.

---

I'll attempt to create an HD version of the caution and warning screens; however, It will be a little off since i can't find any original screenshots or videos with those screens showing

Great Thanks!


Yes, I was thinking on Arial or Verdana fonts. Thanks for the screen order too. I've fixed some thing to do the screeen loops.


Is something like that, has course raking and marvelous stars ranking, they are different to the pre DDRX era. A little video that I've found:




They are only Widescreen versions of the 4:3 screens, just make a widescreen canvas, put the 4:3 bg centered, and draw the missing parts ;)

-------

And the today news:

Finished failed screen!


Also assigned more sounds like the intro video sound ;) and fixed the ranking score pointing to an inexistent screen.

Added bg for edit mode:



--------------------

Fixed the select music screen title layer bug

Your theme looks better than my DDR SuperNova 2 theme LOL

The theme's progress is going great!
The theme would be more awesome if you have graphics ripped directly from the arcade HDD, though.

---

A lot of the arcade stuff is the same as DDR X PS2 except for the e-amusement and the name entry screen

I hope my theme has provided a few ideas. I made the X2 theme not just because I wanted to play it, but in hopes that it would make themes in the styles of DDR Max/Extreme/Supernova/X easier to produce.

And yes, you will get better at LUA as you go. I sure did.

I like the look of progress on this. Kinda reminds me of the Stepmania 5 default in the song wheel design, but it looks good. Top notch.

---

Thanks, you'll get more experience while you are porting the theme elements, and it will get better every time you continue working on it.


I don't have access to the HDD dump of the DDRX, otherwise I could try to rip them.


Yes, checking your theme I found the initial object diferences of the LUA and metrics between stepmania 3.X an 5 versions. Most of the work is extracted from takuya's theme. I'm only tunning it a bit to complete the theme.


Yes, I'm working slowly, because I don't have so much free time, but I'll try to check it every day to make a decent/playable initial version.

Thanks to all for your comments. When I finish porting this theme, I will have the enough experience to create another theme from another DDR versions (maybe unexistent themes ) .

And some news:

I was working on options screens:


And started to rip new things like sounds and graphics missing from the takuya's theme. See ya later with more news ;)
