Z-I-v Summer Contest 2016

If you have SM5 I put the two scroll mods that were actually good back in Gourmet Race (there was one I left removed)
If you want scroll mods use this https://zenius-i-vanisher.com/v5.2/viewsimfile.php?simfileid=29573 and download the auto ZIP
Custom ZIP is still in 3.95 friendly mode and has no .ssc
(also just ninja'd darkanine... don't miss his post just because of mine, it's on the previous page)

Phew. We barely squeezed this one in.


darkanine: Song cut (and choice), Light, Heavy, gimmicks
CuzcoBlocko: Beginner, Standard, Heavy, gimmicks, graphics

Here you go, usaminseijin! The song cut you made that got assigned to me back in Simfile Shuffle 2015 that was the only one I couldn't step. 7 months late isn't bad... right? ^^;

I gotta say, this was really difficult to make for two reasons.

*Time crunch. On monday, I got collabs with Gameoson and Quickman. However, midway through the week, Quickman and I had to call quits. I immediately picked up darkanine after that, and we settled on this song cut Thursday night. He said he wanted to recut it... and delivered Saturday morning. So we only had a grand total of 51 hours to make the charts. In fact, was intended to be a 9, with the 16ths instead being on , but darkanine couldn't do it. He still made light and helped a lot with heavy.

*Song choice. I don't do well with happy hardcore, and with only 2 days, stepping all of the difficulties I did was a challenge and by Sunday I was worried we weren't going to finish it in time. A part of me really REALLY wanted to do another song he liked that I was WAY more interested in but I decided "screw it, this will be good for me". I slowly grew to it the more I listened it, but it was still very VERY hard to step and I fear it's not gonna do well. Just play the chart (and darkanine's too, please), it's up to you to determine if you like it or not.

has mines to mark the changes from 97.5 to 195. has mines to mark all gimmicks.

Thank you so much to darkanine for helping and motivating me to finally finish this! It turned out better than I thought it would in January. ^w^

Oh, and I like the fact that I have both the first and last uploads of the round. XP

I'm on the phone and can't really do much, so if someone wants to get fancy with the tally vote thing, you may.

Voting for [Food Week] is over.

Congrats to all those who participated on the collab week. Hope it was fun for all of ya.

As for this week's theme, we have an idea from yours truly, Benpai.

1. The song must include at the very least one wave gimmick or one stutter gimmick or lua. It's up to them to find out how to do each if they don't already know how to do those.
2. The song should be at least 25% gimmicks. (If this is too lenient, maybe a higher percentage?) It can be spread throughout the song.
3. Gradual speedups and slowdowns also count towards the % of gimmicks in the chart.
4. Please use SM5 for lua and other purposes.

If there any questions, then please feel free to ask on the thread.
Thank you.

Theme has been tweaked by request of the masses.

Can we raise it to 50%

Quick guys, throw in 1.5x speedups / 0.75x slowdowns! Don't worry about stutters and waves, just do this in a more intense/less intense part of the song and call it a day!

No. We can't.


Says you HAVE to do a wave and you HAVE to do a stutter, sadly.

I came from the future and Gameoson gonna win this

Can we agree on one StepMania version for judging the Gimmick Week entries? It's gonna be problematic if some people will use 3.9, 3.9+, 3.95, openITG, 5.0.11 and 5.1.0. Each version treats some things differently.

Can using LUA count as gimmicks?

Please no. Think about the noobs that we don't know use gimmicks properly :/

Edit: Please say me that I'm not the only one using Stepmania 3.9

---

Including you? (And no, you're not. I use OpenITG so I'm quite miffed.)

---

Use SM5.

What you think? ( ._.)

Doesn't work in my mini-laptop

---

For my file you guys should use SM5, im locking the speed mod.

@Junko: That might make things more annoying.

@KevinRocker10 Nezemarth and Quickman use 3.9. I don't know of anyone else outside of that.

The year is 2016. We are going to be using SM5 since the majority is using SM5.

I'm still just gonna use OpenITG. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

---

Can that be a new rule? Because people like me to use lua, and it will lose the aesthetic of the file if the purpose is to have gimmicks.

Say that to my PC
