Putting the gap into the .dwi file through Notepad didn't work. What exactly do I do? ;_;
In a dwi, gap is in milliseconds, and is negative. For example, if the first beat is .512 seconds into the song, the offset in a .dwi file is -512. Just convert your gap to milliseconds and change the sign to put it in .dwi format. In this case, 18.84s = -18840 for dwi.

Alternatively, you could use the .sm format when starting your file (also via Notepad, but has different names for tags) and make the gap/offset tag in seconds. (.512, 18.84, etc.)
