Default Frequently asked questions..answered here!

We know how hard it is to join forums and not get the proper basic information to make your way through and introducing yourself. This thread is dedicated to help all of you newcomers and any problems you have. The list will grow as soon as we find more FAQ to add. Until then if something is not there and you need to know PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE TO ASK ANYTHING. IF WE FIND YOUR QUESTION IS QUITE INTERESTING AND MIGHT CONCERN OTHERS WE WILL LIST IT.

Q: Is it possible to even beat YOSHI Bonus or like one of those insane classical songs?
A: Yes,easily in time. ALSO FFR isn't the only source to playing this type of game if you would take the time to go to www.stepmania.com and download Stepmania. Read the instructions how to set it up and play. Then go to www.bemanistyle.com/sims for songs,also read the Stepmania guide on how to install songs or click here How to get songs on Stepmania This is also a great way to improve your skills,try playing Stepmania for a few hours or so and go back to FFR

Q:Where can I get some of FFR's cool music and stuff?
A:Well before playing the song look where it says Song Artist. Then you have the artist's name,try a www.google.ca search or browse into the forum called Static Jungle Gym.

Q: Do you play with 1 hand or 2 hands? How the hell do you play with 2 hands?
A: Depends who the person is. Most people prefer 1 hand because it's how they started and that's how they like it but if your going to be more competitive like (Reach,Nima,Arch etc...) you will need to use 2 hands. Asking how to play 2 hands is basically asking how do you play this game at all. All you have to do is find how your comfortable playing 2 handedly and continue doing so for a few weeks and then you can make a decision of whether 2 hands is right for you at this time or it's back to 1 handed.

Q: What is FC,PFC,AAA,AA, etc...
A: Well these are shortened terms we use that comes from DDR and Stepmania. Here is how they work:
FC = Full Combo (no misses playing a song)
PFC = All PERFECTS in a song
SDG = Single Digit Greats
SDP = Single Digit Perfects
AAA = Same as PFC.
AA = Where you get a really high score where you end up with no misses no boos and no averages.

Q:How do I get my siggy to to work!!!!!?
A:Click here

Q:What is PA & MA?
A:Well MA is "Marvelous Accuracy" only used on Stepmania,term is used to determine whether your MA is poor or good after a song. PA is in both Stepmania and FFR,PA is said to determine how well your "Perfect Accuracy" is after a song.

Q: How do I sign up for FFR League?
A: Right now, you cant. We are in a middle of a season right now, and sign ups will be posted on the main page when the next season begins

Q:Which is better Stepmania or DWI,and why?
A:Stepmania 100%,why? Because the timing system is more accurate and it's too easy to increase the accuracy rating on DWI. Stepmania is your best bet IF you can run it on your computer,if you cannot then you best bet is DWI.

Q:Where do I find songs for Stepmania or DWI?
A:Click here

Q:I want to create my own steps to a song I have!! how do I find the gap BPM or even create steps!! HELP!!!!!!!1
A:Click here,tons of links and guides

Q:What's wrong with Ball of Malt? Why don't the scores update?
A:The song is temporarily glitched,I don't exactly know what's wrong for further information search the Bug Report forum for more information.

Q:How do I get an avatar?How do I change my avatar?
A:Well simple,click on Profile right at the top of your page and go down to the bottom and choose an avatar.

Like I said those are most frequently asked right now,it's hard to think of others with all of the new people we've been having.

ATTENTION
IF YOU ARE ONE OF THOSE NEW MEMBERS AND YOU NEED THE HELP AND YOU GOT SOME QUESTIONS SENIOR MEMBERS WILL LAUGH AT YOU FOR OR ALREADY HAVE AND YOU NEVER GOT YOUR PROPER RESPONSE,WELL THIS THREAD IF NON RETARDED. I AM HERE TO ANSWER ALL OF YOUR QUESTIONS TO THE BEST I CAN.

THIS WILL BE UPDATED EVERY CHANCE I GET!

I have a question. I read in the FAQ that the high scores list in the game is buggy and to properly view them you need to click on the "Score" thing over on the left hand side of the page.

I've been looking over there and i can't find it.

How do I see the high score lists outside of the game?

You cant see scores outside the game currently. The FFRFAQ is very outdated. The only place to see them is in the game.

I've noticed that when I look at the high scores list for any particular song the majority of the those listed are using the mod labeled 'up'. In my settings configuration the 'turn' feature is disabled... Can it be unlocked, or are these guys cheating somehow?

Can anyone tell me how to get the simfiles to work? Like I download them, then what? Coz Children of Bodom is my favourite band and I saw that there was a simfile for one of their songs and I wanna give it a go. Also I noticed my sig isnt working, but it says BBCode is on, and thats the same code I used on another site and it works fine. Any ideas?
