    Got Otaku Speedvibe [Heavy] but can't play it, lol

    So yesterday I unlocked Otaku Speedvibe [Heavy] by AAA of On the Origin of Species (Evolution) which is a 50.

    Just my luck that it happens to be bugged just like C'est la Vie and won't load past 98% for me though.

      First off - Gratz on [Heavy] lol.

      Also, what version were you loading it on? I just played it on R^2 Standalone and it worked just fine. So I suggest that or try clearing your cache if on browser.

        I don't know what it is, but yeah, some songs tend to get stuck around 98/99% for some users and nothing can feasibly be done to correct this on their end. The admins don't know how to fix the issue either, it just corrects itself at some random point in the future (may take upwards of several weeks before the song in question becomes playable)

        Grats on the unlock though.

        edit: cache clearing doesn't work, it's an extremely random and annoying thing that just plagues users at random. The only solution atm is to wait it out. It's not song specific either.

          Get someone in power to give you the token, bmah etc.

          Congratulations, I remember you talking to me on AIM saying you blackflagged that song several times haha

            Grats on heavy. I remember feeling that I was actually decent at ffr at that point. It's one milestone to be proud of.

            There's a number of songs that stop loading for me on R^3. I use a standalone player and the issue seems to stop after closing out of the flash player then starting back up R^3 (a computer restart works for me nearly every time too). There was one evening I couldn't get my tourney song to load completely...it's a pain to deal with.

              No no. I have the token. I just can't play the chart due to it'll only load to 97%, 98%, etc... but never 100%.

              And yeah changing engine or clearing cache/etc... does nothing. I have a somewhat slow network connection for broadband, so I don't know if it's maybe something in the server code that assumes a fast connection or if it doesn't have to do with that.

              If it is something in the server code that assumes a fast connection -- stop that.

                Well shit, although I should've probably figured that one out because I know I had something similar happen to me also, but it didn't last very long.

                  whenever it happened to me, i just had to wait out some hours and it fixed itself.

                    I guess I'm one of the lucky ones, every time this happens it seems to fix itself after a simple refresh

                        hahaha the same thing happened to me when I unlocked oni last year. I was so looking forward to playing the file and then it wouldn't load for me. I still haven't got round to playing it yet.

                        The problem comes and goes and only affects a handful of files. Sometimes I will be able to play those files but most of the time I will be frozen out. For example CQ Boss continually fails to load for me. I switched to the R^3 engine on a different computer and it worked one time and now it's gone back to not loading.

                        Also well done on the heavy unlock.

                          I got Oni some time ago too, about a month, and I haven't gotten to play it either yet, due to the same issue. I'll admit I haven't tried at all last week though, haha.
