how do I create a new simfile?

#1 cause of problems in software: user error.
If you're not doing anything wrong... it's just Microsoft's stupidity.

Now I'm off.

[Tygre]

gah! I did everything you said and it's still not working!

[Chrissi]

Why isn't it working? What isn't it doing? And what stage are you at?

[Mwerp]

Don't use WinBPM. It sucks. Badly. Just guess at the BPM. I do that everytime on all of my DWIs and I get the BPM correct each time, and if there is error it is within maybe 5 which is easily fixable inside the SM editor or whatever you choose to use.

[Chrissi]

You're a good guesser then... I'm really bad at that sort of thing.

[Tygre]

I have everything in a folder, and all the data needed on wordpad, and I have the MP3 so I have no idea, it just isn't loading

[Chrissi]

Did you save it as songname.dwi in the folder with the mp3? :\

[qualy]

Don't keep the .txt if you did that.

Also, in windows explorer (or whatever program you use) go to Tools->Folder Options->View tab->Click on the check that says hide extensions for known file types. That way it won't save it as a .txt when you try to save at as a .dwi.

[Chrissi]

You can also just put quotes around it. And it will save as the extension inside the quotes.

It's not really guessing, I shouldn't have said that.. it's more like knowing what the BPM is just from listening to the song within a small range of error that rarely occurs >_> For others I'd assume they'd have to guess.

[Tygre]

gah, yet again, I found out that the song, When I burned it to another CD changed to Windows Media Player Format, anyone know how to change it back to an Mp3 file?

[Kenzya]

Rename it.

[Tygre]

rename it what? .mp3? I tryed that.
