Re: hi19hi19 Pack 6 - Long Have We Waited RELEASED

So I wrote short reviews for as many files as I could play tonight / I couldn't resist the train meme. Written in order played, some files were played more than once back to back.

Apple:

Fun easier tech file that will be an absolute BLAST to practice on higher judges. Only thing I think is wrong with it is during the hopld heavy sections the notes on the left should be on the right, but I'm sure there's a reason you have it where it is.

8 / 10

Bring the Rain:

Comfortable jank. Some of those patterns threw me a loop, and I haven't gotten nerves playing a file like this since playing FFR for tourneys.

8.5 / 10

Champion Freeverse:

I usually play this song muted (I don't like the song, fuck we are the champions but lol preferences.) File fixes a lot of what I thought was wrong with the FFR one assuming I'm remembering that one right. I don't remember there being minijacks in there, and they're damn satisfying.

8 / 10

Karate:

I played this on mirror after getting slapped with left jacks dear god that's rough but so technically right I love it. General comments are more like, I think you missed some nice grace oppertunities in the opening riff to more prepare someone who plays this sightread for the jacks. Equally, I think a slightly easier file for this would be dope, and a longer version would be absolutely brutal, but really fun for a higher player for the jack control practice.

I did enjoy it though, I am looking forward to some downrate plays later to slowly build the left hand.

8.75 / 10

(Also side note, I was actually expecting a file to irritate me somewhere by now, but I'm actually having a good time.)

Kollegah the Boss Engine:

I can't play this, but fuck it makes me laugh so goddamned hard. I do love me some 24ths tho.

7.5 / 10

This Will Be The Day:

I dunno if I really like this file because I think it has issues, but I don't hate it either? But I might be biased a fair bit considering this is the old stepcon file and I partook and might be biased due to that. (I have played mine recently to be realllllly fair.)

6-7 / 10

Pistolero:

Isn't this file old? I had a score on this but can't recall where I played it.

Fucking spikes got me good, and fuck that last jump in particular. A pretty good time though.

7 / 10

Quad Queens:

There's a missed grace note on a 23 jump early on i'm pretty sure, would need to editor it to confirm, but we're not going that deep here.

File's a fucking blast. Probably my second favorite as of where it is in the list.

8.75 / 10

Seif Al Din:

File is great, and that ending 32nd trill is a dick move and you know it. FUCKING pattern bias to fuck here. But also the parts you've tamed down to keep this file where it is was super tastefully done.

Though, a harder one wouldn't get lost anywhere on this structure imho. (Not that it needs it.)

Need to video play this song.

8.75 / 10

Shard (Combat):

I didn't finish my playthrough of this because I'd rather do so when it's a run I'm happy with - but I got most the way through it, and it's pretty fun. Don't have any complaints.

8 / 10

My Dog Don't Give Fuck About Apocalypse:

Jesus I have no stamina, and I feel like I just played a Goreshit song. Can't really comment a lot on how it plays but it's engaging mostly, though could with some more mine art at points.

8 / 10

- Part 1 End -

I fully intent to finish the rest of what I feel are the approachable files (for me), but I'm a bit strapped for time tonight rofl.

Seriously I had a pretty damn good time playing these. What they might have in technical errors, or mistakes, it makes up for by just being a good time imho.

I hate holds when combined with other holds in close proximity to the hold before it

People who do that should be taken out back

See mlg can can’s ending

EXACTLY

Like how tf am I supposed to read that shit

Re: hi19hi19 Pack 6 - Long Have We Waited RELEASED

Okay, can I ask what's the deal with several people now claiming that I apparently "copied" another file for ENDYMION (long version)? In particular, I've been accused of stealing the file from Project Alpha.

Let me just say, I didn't, until hearing of this, even know that pack existed. I literally have not even seen the name Sheenoboo before. For what it's worth, I basically don't download other packs. I just make my own files for fun in my little bubble and release them every half decade.




Being curious, I went and downloaded the file.
How the fuck is this in any way similar to my file?

It's over 3.5 MSD harder than my file.
It has 533 more arrows than mine, not to mention the 38 mines, or the fact it uses holds at all.
It has completely different layering and patterns in nearly every single section.
I would say the only thing it shares is the fact both our files are sycned correctly, but they very accurately dicksynced the 80.108 violin squeals and I didn't, and they also unambiguously fucked up the quantization in the section at 234.729 (it plays fine but those are 12ths bro). So not even the sync on our files is the same.


Are people just mad that someone else dared to also step the same song? Am I missing something? Can someone explain this so I stop getting DMmed about it?

In case people are wondering - yes, I'm salty. When I release something I've worked hard on the last thing I want is people claiming I stole something I didn't even know existed. Please stop spreading this lie. And if anyone knows who started it, tell them I say go fuck yourself. Thanks.


EDIT- For the record, now that I've downloaded it I can say the Project Alpha file is also a banger. Really fun to play and I would even recommend it over playing mine on high rates if you are looking for a file to the song in the 23+ range. But for fuck's sake can people stop accusing me of having stolen stuff from it

Re: hi19hi19 Pack 6 - Long Have We Waited RELEASED

It should be mentioned that if someone actually looks at the .sm files in notepad they'll see very stark differences in terms of offset, bpm changes, etc. Intros are patterned kinda similarly, but it's easy to see how multiple people would step it that way (though the one in Project Alpha has noticeably heavier layering).

Also you used a different mp3 file than the one used in Project Alpha.

Re: hi19hi19 Pack 6 - Long Have We Waited RELEASED

Your bg is better so your file is automatically the real one

Haven't seen any of that drama myself (only saw foxfire's review mentioning the project alpha file but by no means claiming they were related) but I can see why people would end up thinking of the project alpha file (which is probably enhanced by the fact the song is a memorable banger and it's one of dour/sheen better files).

That being said, given the song structure and that both files like, actually follow the music, it's more surprising that they aren't more similar lmao.
The overall density and target difficulty are already very different for starters, then there are notable differences in patterning even when both files are following pr or representing something with rolly patterns (which doesn't give that much room for variation in the first place).
Lastly, various sections are simply very different in both approach and focus (though not the first ~30s which is probably the amount of time people spent actually verifying anything).

Also, endymion is hardly an obscure song for anyone to be even bothered by resteps (not like resteps are even a problem in the first place).

the idea that hi19 of all people would have to steal files for a pack 6

Re: hi19hi19 Pack 6 - Long Have We Waited RELEASED

finally some good fucking drama, i might even download this pack at this point

Re: hi19hi19 Pack 6 - Long Have We Waited RELEASED

I Think OWA Raged At Home Run Derby Was Stolen From FlashFlashRevolution.

on a more serious note its beyond petty that someone is baselessly accusing you through DMs (or wherever) of stealing content, sorry you have to put up with bullshit. there's significant plagiarism in other games/communities that goes unpunished so for me to see you of all people getting that treatment is infuriating

Re: hi19hi19 Pack 6 - Long Have We Waited RELEASED

Re: hi19hi19 Pack 6 - Long Have We Waited RELEASED

@hi19 - bro I'm really sorry you had to go through that bs :/

Are people just mad that someone else dared to also step the same song?

I haven't seen the DMs or anything. I stay far and away from any sort of drama these days so I am just leaving it up to the assumption that this john doe has some sort of "stepfile envy" if that even is a thing (???). perhaps in their head they "claim" a song by charting it and labeling it as the one-and-only or the superior chart. *shrug*...

moving on from this, you're an absolute boss at collecting music gems fitting for special cornman stepfiles and i have a lot of respect for you and your thought process in charting based off the awesome conversations we had many eons ago.

if I find the time this weekend, I'll probably see if I can set up a rare livestream and play through the pack even if I am rusty af
