    Re: Super Secret Mega Awesome Theme Idea

    Checklist:
    1. Rename "StepMania."
    2. Change appearance to avoid similarities to other rhythm games.
    3. Rename "singles" and "solo" to 4-key and 6-key respectively.
    4. Default noteskin should be some form of bar or circle, not arrows.
    5. Include a set of noteskins.
    - Color is key-based and color is rhythm-based
    - Different shapes: bars, circles, squares, diamonds
    6. Change default scroll to down.
    8. Change default speed mods and add a set.
    9. Option to lock certain files to Xmod or Cmod.
    10. Fix editor bug where up/down are inverted when editing in down scroll.
    11. Main game keys are labeled 1-6 instead of up, down, left, right, upleft, and upright.
    12. Change default key configuration.
    13. Redo ranking system.
    14. Redo scoring system.
    15. Make step author for each chart visible when selecting songs.
    16. Create an achievement system.
    17. Add quality files.
    18. Add 6-key versus mode and perhaps 7-key.
    19. Optional flashing light column explosions.
    20. Optional note labels in editor.
    21. Implement limitless numerical difficulty values. If possible, include multiple values for different techniques.
    22. Compile.

    * Huge issue: 4.0 has problems with minifreeze timing.
    * We should also figure out what kind of appearance will be best liked.

    This is an interesting idea. Approximately how many songs would be on one game? Is stargroup actually working on developing this? etc...
    yes I'm working on this. I started the freaking project

    also your ideas were already thought of. thanks for contributing though

    This is an amazing idea, but the problem is that after you release it, then what? Release new packs? Why do that when you already have over 1000+ songs? Add to that that the size of the file would be ginormous. We're talking, like, 5GB here. What site is going to be able to hold all of that?
    yeah release new packs, additions, patches, etc. if you have over 1000 songs then be it, though I doubt we'll reach that number, since the official list of files is going to be handpicked by dark chancellors. game skeleton itself is nothing though.

    hahahahahaha 5 gb you make it sound like that's a lot

    The truth is that 20th, 28th and 36th are available to put in a simfile, but only via text (Shiner's The Dance of Eternity has 20th notes); also the time signatures and the comment lines; so it would only be an editor rebuilding.
    no they don't exist they are rounded to the nearest 192nd.
    also it's really, really, really hard to merge both dreamstudio and sm because of the radically different editors. but I guess it's technically possible. good general idea though
