Can I see FFR stepcharts?

Re: Can I see FFR stepcharts?

yes there is but why would anyone ever use dance dance revolution groove radar to calculate finger dancing

Re: Can I see FFR stepcharts?

The .sm files that the FFR charts are made from aren't publicly available. And yeah, at any rate they don't give meaningful information for that since they're for keyboard play.

yea but just because it's irrelevant to you guys doesn't mean it's therefore irrelevant to him

in the name of statistics i demand this man gets what he wants

Re: Can I see FFR stepcharts?

I don't think its possible in ffr but you could do it with stepmania and the files are better anyway.

Re: Can I see FFR stepcharts?

The great majority of them are phenomenally uninteresting, just so you know.

Freeze: FFR has no freeze arrows so that portion of the radar is always empty.
Stream: This portion is determined by arrow density, and since FFR is keyboard files and the groove radar is meant for pad density... this is always going to be filled.
Voltage: This section is for peak density, and like stream is almost always going to be filled.
Chaos: Because it's convention in FFR to use 16ths as a baseline rhythm for streams, instead of 8ths like in DDR, the chaos meter also always maxes out. This is doubly true for any files with color theory or solos. You will only get variation here for easy 8th-based files. Even files with doubled BPM like A Kidney Stone will have enough 16ths to max this.
Air: Probably the only interesting stat, except that, just like stream and voltage, it fills extremely easily because its max is set with pad arrow densities in mind.


I would say a good 60%+ of FFR files are going to look exactly like these:


You have to dig down to easy files (sub-30s) or files with intentionally almost no jumps in order to get some variation from the above.

Too bad. Thanks, though. Also, GR values can go above 200, so I wanted to compare them to each other.
