Blah blah, introduction and greetings.
A while back, I made a 4key chart to a Chopin Nocturne (No. 2 in Eb, Op. 9), and spent a long, hard time on DDReam trying to sync each beat to the score and another really long, hard time trying to layer it in a way that wasn't boring. It was my first real attempt at a chart beyond just writing for myself and my friends, so I had high hopes for it. I sat on it for a long time before I dared put it on the cruel 'playtest my simfile' thread, but I did eventually do so. I was kind of disappointed with the results (y'know, people not really liking that much and all), and I made a few corrections after playtesting it for a month.
So here I am almost a year later (I think, I'm bad with dates), with this file still sitting in my hands. It could never go on to the real engine because I used a quality mp3 file with Vladimir Ashkenazy as the soloist, which means permissions would never, ever happen (Decca is a biyatch). I don't think community packs would accept it either, because a) it's not 6key for piano and b) it's not by someone with a good name on this site.
I love piano, and I've been studying it for about 10 years now. I want to be that guy, the one who writes the really good piano charts. I realize this is a fantasy, but hey, I can dream. So, take a look at my old file if you want (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/g982y3bgqq3hx7i/JZSN6OArco).
My next project is going to be Rachmaninoff's transcription of Kriesler's Liebeslied, because I love the song. I've read all the stepping material Patashu put out, as well as the more recent one stargroup1000 did, so I'm no idiot. (Amateurish, definitely; idiotic, maybe not.)
tl;dr take a look at the old file, give some input as to why I should/shouldn't continue writing stepfiles, try to be nice 'n stuff
Cheers, Checked_Out

! I am glad someone finally decided to take this on. Prelude op 23 n 5 would be cool. Also some more etudes by Liszt, rach, and Chopin should be looked into. I am a fellow pianist so I was really glad to see this thread! Good luck!
