3.9: Moving receptor arrows left and right?

Hey there. I recently put StepMania on my Xbox and it works nice except for one thing. After I center the image, the note fields are far to the right and the second players right arrow gets partially cut off. I figured I would amend the problem by trying to figure out how to modify the theme to move the receptor arrows.

Anyways, I figured out how to move them up and down; I did it by changing ReceptorArrowsYStandard under the [Player} category in the metrics.ini file. Is there any way to move the receptors left and right instead of up and down? There was no ReceptorArrowsX or anything like that so now I don't know what to do...

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

It's impossible to move arrows horizontally. Only sm-ssc/StepMania 5 can do that.

Argh! It seems like such a simple thing too... I wonder why they implemented vertical movement and not horizontal?

How did you put stepmania in your xbox?

Softmodded the Xbox and installed StepManiaX v12. And it runs wonderfully (better framerate than PCs) except for the fact that it overscans on my standard-def TV's. So in order to remedy that problem, I used the "Center Image" adjustment in the options menu to size the image correctly to all four sides of the screen. Everything runs smoothly in the menus until the songs start and you realize the arrows are weirdly positioned. You can never win I guess. :/

xbox or xbox 360

Xbox would be remarkable.

Xbox regular. Not 360. I don't even have a 360.

---

What about if you try to play stepmania with the arrows in the center? (i.e. solo, you could use that option)
I guess it should be possible to move them horizontally then

---

Well it's not 1P's arrows that are off the screen. Since both note fields moved to the right, 1P's side is already more in the center than it should be. It's 2P's right arrow that gets partially cut off. I wouldn't need to play solo. It's when I'm playing versus that the problem occurs.

3.9 is buggy, I'd suggest you either pester sm-ssc to port their work to the Xbox or change the overscan settings in the service menu on your TV.

---

There's not much that can be changed on the TV end of things. I'll look more into sm-ssc.

---

yeah, that's not happening any time soon. I was trying to get it to work, but it wouldn't boot or even give me any idea what was going wrong.

ahh gay, i blame it on the 64mb ram the xbox has to work with.

jtag 360 now you're talking

---

jtag 360, what I would've had if I didn't upgrade to play various games. RAGE and sadness.

now I have to offload xbox 360 development/testing to someone I know with hardware.

(I never did test ultralight as the theme when working on the xbox version of sm-ssc; that might've been better, not sure.)

FYI people still list Blades 360s on eBay (for potentially inflated BIN prices) if you're interested.
