[SM5] DanceDanceRevolution XX -STARLiGHT-

This is a very beautiful theme and those involved in its literal years of planning, work, and eventual release have every reason to be proud of their efforts.

Where can I get the dancer videos that go in the SNCharacters folder? I remember there was a full zip download somewhere but now I can't seem to find it

Nevermind I found it in the Read Me XD. Awesome theme! Been a long time coming and I'm super glad it's now here!

FANTASTIC theme! I remember when this was first proposed 7-8 years ago and nice to see it come to fruition. Congratulations silverdragon and team on your hard work as this is beautiful. I do have one question though: has anyone figured out how to get the songwheel sorting that's used in the SongManager PreferredSongs file? I put it in the \Others folder but the songs are still sorting by default and not reading that file.

Also, sorry to hear of your losses the past couple years, silverdragon. My heart goes out to you!

Amazing job! It's a fantastic theme.
👌👌👌
Now team who worked on this, please please re-made the DDR "official" themes, specially A20, and make them look like this one, I mean with different types of music wheels, backgrounds, bgm, etc.. also the addition of your the new A roulette that work so smooth and changes the preview song immediately like the original AC, also the select difficulty mini screen on select music.

It would be amazing to have a theme that works very similar to the AC, and also to have extra options on it.

Damn, you sure got a list, don'tcha?

Sorry I just wanted to be specific, since my english isn't good enough XD, but basically it's just to add this "select wheel" system and the difficulty mini screen on DDR themes, that's all, unfortunately I'm not good at coding to do it myself, I'm better on making, and editing graphics.

Isn't that a bit much to ask people to do for free?

Thank you very much for your hard work and congratulations on the release! Looks absolutely beautiful.

One thing I'd like to know is what it would take to get this working in 4:3 low res? It doesn't look bad when I try that mode, but I notice the arrow targets are way lower than where they should be and also smaller. How would I adjust that?

This is a nice release, silverdragon754 assets are nice and the original theme was so beautiful, congrats on this release to all the involved, and thanks to share your work with us. Some feedback and comments:

-I think it was better to leave the internal resolution of Stepmania in low resolution and not force the HD, that makes the themes to act weird in lower resolutions and sometimes produces a bit of lag, making sometimes impossible to play.

-What is the minimal SM version that it supports? I've tested in 5.0.9 and it throws some errors but I'm not sure if is caused by the oldest build. Or my build is fucked up (which is most likely).

-Would be nice to let the users choose between BG video dancers or 3d models, I don't like to play with the dancer bg videos I prefer 3d models. I have a script for them to check and show cut-ins if the team wanna implement it.

-The coverflow wheel of X2-X3 themes would be nice to see, I think is the best wheel for this theme. I hope it will be included later in a future update.

Apart from that, the theme feels nice, keep up the good work, thanks for the time invested, and thanks for sharing.

There seems to be some problems with the theme. First of all, when I chose the DDR-X Note Noteskin, all the arrows got glitched, but the Starlight Noteskin works fine. Second, when you go into the options in the Ace styled wheel, and press Esc (or in my case, B), the music suddenly stops. Also, how do you get the characters in the game? I've put them in the Characters folder, and in the Starlight theme folder. Whenever I press / to get to the options to turn characters on, it doesn't do anything; it doesn't go on, it just stays off.

Also, there seems to be a problem on the Ace Wheel, where the total number of songs in a folder and the folder name overlaps.

This is hands down the most beautiful, functional and customizable theme ever. Thank you for sharing this with us.

Hi this theme is truly one of the greatest stepmania themes I have ever seen. Is it possible to center the playfield however? I can't seem to find out how.

Wow I finally got to try this theme and I'm really loving it! I got a little question, how I can swap the Group sort order with the Preferred sort order? Seems a bit pointless to do that but at least I can order every group in the way I want with the preferred sort order.

I'm thining it's not enabled since the theme's files don't include a SongManager PreferredSongs file either

Edit: oh I think I found a really small bug: if you open the options menu and then back out to the music selection screen, the song preview will stop playing

This is a magnificent work. Looks amazing, clean, and it is seems that there was (or is) a lot of your effort. Congratulations!!

As a suggestion: I prefer to use all themes in 1280 x 720 resolution and using 4:3 aspect ratio. I never liked the "empty space" in the sides. When I try to do it, many elements of the screen becomes even smaller than before, creating more empty space in top, bottom and sides of the screen (as said by Ninevolt in a previous post), not only in the core game, but in options, select songs, etc. If you can fix this, it will be marvelous.

Thanks again for your effort. Have a happy new year. :D

This is my first post, I know nothing about any of this stuff, I just installed Stepmania last night, etc. but this theme is super astounding. It's genuinely super legit and you should be extremely proud. I've spent most of the day today just rifling through different themes and song packs and whatnot and this is definitely going to be the theme I'm sticking with.

I had a quick question tho, is there any way to fix the upside down A character that shows up in the title of songs like Smooooch? It appears for me as a tiny ball with a question mark in it. This text, I mean: ・∀・

It's showing up as ・?・ instead for both Smooooch and Caramelldansen.

We are actually aware of that problem and we're adding that character and possibly others in the next update for the theme.
Glad you're enjoying it!

Would it be possible to get a higher resolution number/font for the score on ScreenEvaluation?
Everything looks nice and crisp, but the player's score on that screen looks blurry due to how large it is.
