is this an error or do i just suck?

[Tek.Ni.Que]

in the megaman song, about 10-15 seconds before the crazy part (nonstop arrows), there is one UP arrow that seems to ALWAYS miss...thus, i always end up with one miss because of that single arrow. anyone else have this problem? or maybe i just suck. =)

[Tek.Ni.Que]

ahhhh IT HAS TO BE AN ERROR!!! there is no way i can miss that... :shock: :shock: :shock:

Just for the record, I have not deleted any posts.

I will take a look at the error. I dont know how one arrow would always not register while the others dont. Each arrow is it's own function with the same set of programatic rules in its "world".

I will try to track it down anyway.

Gracias Synth!

I think I notice that same thing! No matter what it always misses that one darned arrow, breaking the combo!

[Synthlight]

I am taking out the background for that level this morning as it was only for testing. Let me know if you still have problems.

Is the arrow offbeat or do you really think it is impossible to hit?

When Your combo hits exactly 145, it's some imaginary step that doesn't exist that throws off your combo. At least that's my opinion. No matter WHAT you do, you get a miss.

[Tek.Ni.Que]

Yeah, I keep hitting the arrow, and I get a GOOD and a MISS immediately right after that. Please fix =...(

[EnderTheXenocide]

AAHHHH :shock: I think I wanna cry.. I actually managed to combo the WHOLE megaman song, INCLUDING hitting the glitched step right on. But of course, it gave me a good AND a miss, so the combo was broken in two... and yet, i didnt even get in the top 50 scores... HOW CAN U DO 40,000 POINTS BETTER THAN COMBOING EVERY NON GLITCHED STEP!?

[Synthlight]

I know I am being a pain in the arse about this but could someone give me an approximate time when this happens? I will check the ffr step list regardless and see if there is anything funny in there.

Synth, it happens around 35 seconds - 38 seconds into the song.

Ok, this is boggling me.. Here is the FFR format output.

[1671,'U'],[1679,'L'],[1684,'R'],[1689,'D'],[1700,'L'],[1711,'D'],[1721,'U'],
[1732,'D'],[1737,'U'],[1742,'L'],[1747,'D'],[1800,'D'],[1811,'L'],[1816,'R'],
[1821,'D'],[1826,'U'],[1832,'L'],[1837,'D'],[1842,'R'],[1847,'L'],[1853,'D'],
[1858,'R'],[1863,'L'],[1868,'U']

To understand the time of those numbers divide them by 30 and you get the amount of seconds. It should cover from right before the crazy guiter (maybe 5-6 seconds before that) and then a couple seconds after the guitar crazyness. I personally dont see anything wrong with the numbers so this has me boggled as to why the engine would put up a ghost of an arrow.

Let me make sure I am straight on this.. You DONT see an arrow but you still get a miss as if there was an arrow that you could not see?

yeah it seems like there is an invisible arrow. you hit UP once, you get your "PERFECT/GOOD/ALMOST"...and then immediately afterwards its the miss. how about editing/rewriting that one segment of the song? like change the arrows without changing their positions...you might accidently get rid of the "hidden arrow"...just an :idea:

[EnderTheXenocide]

Actually, what I've noticed (maybe, it goes by so fast) is that the arrow is there, and if you press it right you do get a good or whatever score for it, but you ALSO get a MISS on it ALWAYS. its the 145th or 146th step.

[Synthlight]

Thanks for looking into this. I will find some way to fix it, I promise.

drives me nuts... bump! ps this is also my first post here, this game is great and fun as hell :D

*edit* i think there is an invis arrow... just an idea. i have beaten that song atleast 10times with only the one miss.

[Synthlight]

My only option it to try and rewrite part of the song and see if it dissapears. Will do this in th next 24-48 hours

thanks synth :D
