Stepmania Online is back
 

Smo is going to be making a comeback and I hope we can get some decent activity on the servers like the old smo.

Go to this site to register your username to connect.
http://stepmaniaonline.net/

Once you are in game enter this address in the network settings to connect to the server.
"stepmaniaonline.net"

The site is still in development, but the server is up and running and will be recording scores. Eventually the site should look like it used with the old theme and everything.

+1 to the on-site chat lurking ability

Re: Stepmania Online is back
 

Awesome, hopefully this won't go down like the previous two SMOs.

Re: Stepmania Online is back
 

There is little chance it will ever go down. Just keep in mind that the server is fully functional even though the site is barely set up yet.

Re: Stepmania Online is back

"When someone starts a game and the user leaves just as this happens it can cause the other clients to hang waiting for a response from the server. We are aware of this bug."

Re: Stepmania Online is back

Re: Stepmania Online is back
 

If there is a chance of a score recording system similar to FFR's (or Blue Planet for the 3 of you that would remember it), I would donate so much time to coding it and making it work

Re: Stepmania Online is back
 

It seems that it does record the best scores for files. It just isn't displayed anywhere yet. Unfortunately there are some major issues with this because it doesn't do any kind of file check to make sure it is the same notes.

Re: Stepmania Online is back
 

The only way I could think it could work is including certain packs in the system. The database would have to run checks based on how many total notes there are, or a difficulty rating and match it up with something in a certain pack that is in the database. If nothing is found, just not record the score

I did this with BP, so it can be done. I just didn't do it where it auto-records through the server

Re: Stepmania Online is back
 

Just played a couple games online, everything was working perfectly. I had no connection problems.
I was getting XP after playing each file, and all my scores were recorded onto stepmaniaonline.net


well there is this for now :3

Re: Stepmania Online is back
