    Endurance Files + importing to R^3 engine

    Two quick questions: Firstly, I have the 1 hour 54 minute JS challenge simfile, but I cannot for the life of me find the 4 hour 140 bpm stream challenge, nor any other endurance files of the sort like Testament of Ian (though the latter is index/pad, having the file would be cool nonetheless).

    Second: Is there any way to import Stepmania songs into the R^3 engine? I know of FFRMania and often find myself playing it regularly, but not all of the songs I often play are on it. I also prefer practicing on R^3 more because of how easily I'm able to manipulate rates (as compared with Stepmania).

    Help would be appreciated!

    First - I dunno about the 4 hour stream challenge, but Testament of Ian (as well as many other long files, both pad and keyboard) is in the Ultramarathon Gigapack.

    Second - Someone has to convert the files to FFR, and then upload it to an offline engine, and then you just have to load their xml into R^3. If you have a selection of files you want to play on R^3, I bet you could get the FFRMania folks to add them to their engine.

      Hmmm... what is the conversion process like? God forbid if it involves dragging and dropping notes -- the actual .sm files seem pretty clean in terms of formatting, so converting them that way shouldn't be that hard, but then again I have no idea what I'm talking about so it could be much harder. Like you said, I could just ask the FFRMania crew to do it for me (and I'm sure a few other people might be looking for the files), but I don't want to cause any duress by asking for them to upload all of ATTang's Bad Files pack...

      In any event, thanks for the help!

        lol, the R^3 engine would probably break if you imported a song over 1hr long, I mean, R^3 barely handled TGWP when it got inserted into the live version of the game, and that's 18min iirc.

        edit: 17min, close enough.

          Woah woah woah, I don't want to import a 4 hour long file to FFR LOL, was just curious as to where I could get the file myself for SM. But even then, R^3 is pretty strong... On the subject of long files, Testament of Ian gamma is on FFRMania, and it's like 25-26 minutes long 26K notes and plays perfectly for me. I'm just wondering how many more dumps can fit onto it before it starts to become sentient and question its own existence XD
