offset option

[bmah]

This should be a given, but I'd like to request an offset option, just like what there is for Thirdstyle. The only difference is that blue-note songs/songs predating a certain age should not be allowed to be modified with this option, since many of those are "historical" and their difficulties stem from their offsyncness anyways.

Despite having fixing my prior lag, and despite AAAing many hard songs on SM fine, I'm finding myself getting random goods everywhere, even on the easiest song...I can't even AAA Big Blue v2. I figured that the main difference between my old desktop computer and this laptop was that somehow my old computer had FFR sync much better, to just about every song. Is there some sort of internal syncing differences within an individual computer or something?? Also, my old keyboard had fatter keys, but the fact that I could do well on SM with my laptop keyboard should mean that I've overcome the differences in key size. Those are the only differences I've noticed, so striking out lag and general playing experience, I'm currently putting the culprit to the mild but disastrous offsync that's affecting my scoring abilities.

There's another similar thread in this forum which describes the general offsync of many songs on FFR, but even "properly synced" songs don't fare well on my laptop. It might be "properly synced" to some sort of standard, but my computer seems to have some universal offset to upset the syncing on all files, or at least that's what it seems like to me. So I hope that an option to clearly expand the flexibility in syncing freedom is possible, whatever the case is from person to person. (And at the same time, exclude this option to songs that derive their difficulties from being offsync in the first place. These songs might need to be recategorized afterwards.)

Any ideas?

Big blue v2 took me 6 tries but it has nothing to do with offset, its the note choice thats bad in atleast 2 cases that ive noticed.

I only gave Big Blue v2 as an example. I literally can't AAA most other songs like I used to. I dunno, it's like there's some sort of extra sensitivity to the timing that I haven't felt before. Probably because the timing is off or I have to use my own rhythm by muting the sound, which either of those choices aren't ideal compared to a perfectly synced song - on my computer that is (see 2nd par. of my previous post).

Even if my own issue in the end is a lost cause after all, it would still be great for people to have the ability to change offset however they like, excluding historical songs. You can't lose with that.

I'd really appreciate this - it's frustrating as all hell splitting notes within timing windows like I just did on Planet Karma right at the end because the chart plays late as hell on my computer.

Seeing as how someone made this script for making isolation files, I can't see how this isn't possible.

Can be done as the engine by default has a arrow offset 31 which is changed for older songs.

Cool, I hope something like this is considered in the near future, with proof that it's already possible to do so.

Bump for special attention.
