What do i do to start making charts you ask? I've made it simple for you to start!
I've been looking around on here and noticing a lot of people had asked around on how to begin making charts, and most answers are generally the same and normally don't give any real explination on how to begin. There may be some thread out there that does explain this but since i wasn't able to find anything while looking for about an hour or so, I'd just create this to help others out!~
What I've done is pretty simple but can help out a lot to those who are new to making charts. I've created a "how to start" guide along with the 2 programs that are necessary in creating your very own file. People who are unfamiliar with DDream, this "how to start" guide is a very quick in detail step-by-step run on how you would begin making a file. I've provided a link below to Each of the files Seperately and just a link that has everything needed. DDream + MixMeister + How to Start Stepping With DDream Guide http://www.mediafire.com/?yy4xe9tyb6rcv4c DDream http://www.mediafire.com/?lcc5vkir858hriy MixMeister - BPM Analyzer Note - Most of the time MixMeitser will be off about 0.02 BPM, which you would just round off. http://www.mediafire.com/?xdn466d6au78cdo How To Start Stepping With DDream Guide http://www.mediafire.com/?4qn16ltff3fdxzx Last edited by TK_unreal; 03-20-2012 at 11:42 AM.. |

do tell people that if they use mixmeister to round their bpm's off, and that 10% of the time they are inacurate like ****, like I dont even use mixmeister anymore.
also if they want to make xmod files with bpm changes and stops, good luck doing that in ddream 3.9+ + notepad++ is still the best to me for stepping tbh

Re: What do i do to start making charts you ask? I've made it simple for you to start
As far as BPMing, I personally prefer setting the tempo manually (listening through and pressing B on each beat in sync mode). I always get better results and more "freedom" that way, in comparison of using some bpm finding soft.
If that helps anyone! Not a pro stepper by any means, but it's what I got out of my personnal experience. Of course, I'm using DDReam lmao. If you prefer stepmania for stepping, I recommed doing that to put the bpms everywhere and then save as filename.sm, then step up on sm as you please! =3

mix meister works great when you're lazy and you know the song has a static bpm and a steady noticable rhythm.
just read the guide that you wrote up and no offense to you or anything. your input is appreciated but for someone who has never used ddream the steps you gave make no sense.

*for those of you who don't know, BPMs on Mixmeister are often off by 0.02 BPM. |

Re: What do i do to start making charts you ask? I've made it simple for you to start
I've already been personally thanked by 6 people. With comments along the lines of "i wasnt able to find DDream anywhere" and if they had found it, "that guide there was way over my head and i didnt feel like reading any of it so i just said **** it and didnt bother learning"
Which leads me to the reasoning to have this thread.. Also thanks Bmah, ill throw that in the OP real quick. |
