You didn't need to make a whole new thread.

Re: LEAD originals pack 1 ( Reuploaded)

I know, but I wanted to.

Re: LEAD originals pack 1 ( Reuploaded)

Re-downloaded. To be honest, I was expecting a lot more differences for some reason, and thus many of my previous comments still stand exactly as they were, save for a couple of songs. =( So again, I present to you my opinions:

----------

3y3s: Save for the skips between bars 51 and 70, I liked the bpm tricks. Mine placement overall was kinda mean, but the file is generally okay I guess. =/

Belladonna: I actually kinda liked this one. However, I would have liked it a good deal more if you cut down on the candlesticks in the runs, or perhaps got rid of them altogether. They would be horribly difficult on pad, even for a 13. This is technically quite accurate, so some props to you there. The runs are just a bit unforgiving, that's all.

Cave Story: Perhaps it's just my love for 8-16 bit music speaking here, but I found this rather enjoyable. It's a teeny bit schizophrenic in what the steps try to accent in places, but I'm not too worried about that.

Drill Instructer: Wasn't fond of this one. Some of the double steps were particularly awkward considering how cross-happy this file is, and the spins threw me off more often than not.

Dynamite Rave: I found the first BPM gimmick somewhat awkward, and jumps (mostly in the verses) seem pretty random. Otherwise, not bad imo.

empathy: Gotta love 'dat TaQ. And in a rare twist compared to the rest of the pack, I seem to detect significant improvement. It seems a little more on par with the music, and I see you managed to cut a good portion of the double stepping out, if not all of it. I definitely like this one a little better, even if I still feel it's a tad over-stepped. :3

Freeway Shuffle: Not incredibly fond of this either. I guess it seems off to me in terms of keeping up with the music, and some of the mine placement is a little harsh imo, especially the last one. Patterns seem a little bit more solid since the previous version, at least to me, but only a little.

Hardkore Atomic: The steps themselves I reckon are pretty much fine. I see you changed the patteren in bars 41-49, and it's a little less akward than your other one, so thnx. The BPM tricks kept me on my toes, and I can see where you're going with them. However, you completely butchered the one in bar 62. It completely destroys the sync for the rest of the song. You MUST fix it, and I honestly cant believe you missed this. ;_;

Mil Amores: I found the triplets/deathrun between bar 18 and 25 rather boring. I would have prefered it if you kept to following the lyrics. That aside, this is actually my favourite file for this pack. o_O

No. 13: First thing, it's pretty off sync. It's 0.04 seconds too late. Moving on, I felt the file was dotted with steps accenting notes that couldn't be heard or simply weren't there. This is most noticeable in the string melodies I reckon. Otherwise it's not too bad. Mind, the fact that I like this song choice anyway probably helps with my favour towards it. :P

Ready For War: The problem here is syncing, where I believe it's at least 0.02 seconds late. Some of the tricks also hurt it a bit. However, I was rather fond of the BPM tricks you put in here as a whole, and the patterns definitely get my thumbs up. Try and sort that sync, yo. (Side note: why is this credited to Renard? XD)

Tranzport: For some reason, the pack rates this as a 14, and I think we both know this ain't. XD Again a lot of the time some steps (mostly 16ths) seems to go to nothing, but I do kinda like them for some reason. Also, that little surprise in the middle of the song was pretty sly you dawg, you. I did like that. Okay overall, but...I think it could have gone with the music a bit better.

Under the Glass Moon: Holy f***. Technically accurate for the most part yes, but woah. Candlestick 24ths at 146bpm? Bar 41? Bars 49-50? That's some pretty insane s*** right there. I'm not sure what to think of it.

Vanity Angel -seraphim mix-: I found a good part of this fairly confusing. Yes it follows the music, but it's fairly inconsistent in places. That's all really.

----------

And that's that. If these look familiar from when I reviewed your older version, again it's because I didn't find a lot of differences. XD But that's what I think of all the files. Make of my comments what you will. On a final note, I may as well list my favourite files in no particular order:

-Mil Amores
-Belladonna
-Ready For War
-Dynamite Rave
-Cave Story
-*New!* empathy

In addition, you've given me the strange urge to re-step Freeway Shuffle, No. 13 and Tranzport. o_o I might post my own interpretations of the tunes one day, and perhaps ask for your opinion (and permission to yoink your awesome graphics lol).

Re: LEAD originals pack 1 ( Reuploaded)

oh lol well yeah they arent that different at all...I had gotten rid of the annoying double steps now...thats about it....still gotta sync that hardcore atomic.

oh and about Drill instructer....There is still double steps in it? O_O oh no I thought I fixed em that song is cross happy....I had to make a weird crossy song.

and yeah you can use my Graphics .


Also I like how you called the fun streams in mil amores a "death run" lol.

I always play my edit to that....its one of my fav sims too.

Re: LEAD originals pack 1 ( Reuploaded)

Perhaps I exaggerate. :P But granted, it's still significantly more difficult than the rest of the song, not that I mind.

And yes, definitely fix Drill Instructer and Hardcore Atomic at least. In other news, I just finished a draft of my own version of Tranzport, and I'm debating over whether or not I should release it or continue sorting out kinks. It retains the BPM tricks you used though, because they were awesum.

Re: LEAD originals pack 1 ( Reuploaded)

Oh well ughhhhhhhh yea releaseeeeee it.

Re: LEAD originals pack 1 ( Reuploaded)
