Re: Songs In Need of Framer Fixing!
If you ask me, framer fixes on very old files are slightly unfair, but the bonus to the community makes up for it - in the grand scheme of things, most good scores will be achieved after the fix. Also, if you think about it, making a file marginally easier to hit has a similar effect on the player as adding new options/fixes to the engine (speedmods, keymapping, avmiss fix, noteskins, PA counter, etc.) and to go against it so future people will have to go through the same non-chart-based annoyances you did strikes me as a bit selfish.
There's not all that much you can do when someone steps a one-handed 100bpm 64th minitrill.
The 48th minitrills turn out 3 frames apart, as they should; if you wanted the 64th minitrills to be the same speed, and not faster, you could have stepped them that way. In this case, I'd say the framers accurately represent how close the jacks are in the actual file.
Mm, I guess this is a case where we need to ask the stepauthor. The problem is we can't easily and objectively tell when it's intended as an accented jump and when it's intended as an actual grace note. RAINBOW SQUIGGLEY is a great example of the first type, but in other cases it's less obvious.
Are we sure about this? I know for a fact that (a) For FFR was converted from an actual DWI, and (b) other blue note files have been recolored in the past. I figure, as long as we keep the chart itself unchanged, there's precedent.
