    So stepmania 5 beta 4 finally included a really nice feature

    StepMania 5 beta 4; release notes compiled by @kyzentun and Markdown formatted by @freem: This is divided into three sections: Player visible changes: New configuration options players should try...


    CMods adjust for song rate. Previously, if you used a rate mod, you'd have to pick a different CMod from normal to account for the rate. The CMod code now checks the song rate mod and adjusts appropriately. The same is true of MMods. Haste is not adjusted for because the sudden changes that can occur from haste would cause the arrows to jump disorientingly.
    I can't be the only one who is excited that I wont have to scroll through cmods anymore when I want to play stuff on rates

        This was in Simply Love from a little while ago, glad to see someone finally implemented this to SM5.

          lol

          he is right though, the only people who should be using 3.95 are those who have performance issues with 5

          edit: absolutely no one should be using 3.9 lol

                shows the patterns in the difficulty selected and goes with the point that the song preview starts and loops with it

                Released!

                  You won't be seeing him in any more competitions as he has already joined his life force with the arrows.

                  In our hearts, every competitor is Dossar now. that or I'm guessing he's busy in school and doesn't want distractions.

                      actually the song previews do not loop and the simfile preview plays to the end of the song after the song preview ends

                        If anyone tells/shows me how to move the Marv/Perf/etc judgement down at least a cm from it's current placement on SM5, then I would use SM5. Right now, that fucks my shit up HARD, and it's obvious when I play the same song on Staiain's build of CV1 vs SM5b4. Where it is is exactly where I keep my eyesight when I'm playing beyond c875, which is my usual cmod on sm5. -_-

                          Unless the theme sets a custom function for it, Themes/_fallback/Scripts/02 Other.lua has the function "JudgmentTransformCommand" and "ComboTransformCommand".

                          Personally, I don't like it when people need to reach inside a theme to change values for trivial stuff like this, so I've added them to the options screen in Consensual.

                            It's not trivial for me, though, as it messes me up, badly, because it's in the exactly same area where I look at on the screen. It's really weird and a bit hard to explain but I also have the same issues with FFR. Of course, it could also be because of how SM5 flows slightly differently from SM3.9 and up. Idk, I'll be experimenting since I would rather use SM5 but I get way way better scores on 3.95

                            And it can't be too trivial for BMS/IIDX people if it can be moved around in their games, or at least in 15 DJ TROOPERS and 16 EMPRESS. But that's also just my opinion. And we all know what they smell like lol

                            Thanks for that bit of information, though! I really, really do appreciate it!

                              I meant trivial to implement. I think it took me about 5 minutes to put the options in to allow a player to customize the positions of both on the options screen in my theme.
