Official Mirrors: One Two (Thanks Foxfire.)

Hi everyone. Pack release a year plus in the making here. And my first lol.

Wanna give a few shout outs before anything else:

Dourgent: For helping with Ink and Blood. The notes helped a lot. Also for making me want to commit to this project in the first place. Your work's been a big inspiration for me.
Shadowgod: Extra help on Ink and Blood, really helped iron out the last few kinks that I missed working on Dour's notes. Also, some of the collabs, such as the first solo in Mad Pierro.
Foxfire: For playtesting [most] every file in this pack. It's really nice to have someone at a high skill cap to pass a file to, and get their feedback on how it plays, and parts that spiked too much. :D (Really helped on like Ink and Blood, and Extratone's Edit difficulty :D)
James May: Generally just making charting more fun again. Also for letting me bully the shit out of you for Pokari.
Drago - Your Say-So file is the influence for mine, and thus they ended up kind of similar? I feel mine is different enough, but I hope you don't feel like I stepped on your toes, or copied you with this. Your file was cool conceptually, but there were omissions and details I wanted to hit, and to be honest, I really like this Japanese one, I can't say I like the English one quite as much. :D
T-Force: For letting me snag Malevolent Mansion for the pack, and helping with the original chart that I remade into what it is now.

Everyone else who contributed. Was fun to finally make and [actually] release something.

Song List:


Any-who, real notes about the paq:

1. If there is an Edit file, don't play it first. Usually these files contain sections I nerfed, or just thought would be hilarious to watch say like, Foxfire play. Or in one case, Fox himself gave me the idea.
2. None of these songs were NOT made with the ability to rate them in mind.
3. Some of these files are remakes. Some of these files are reworks of their originals, or simply files that never got accepted elsewhere, or rereleases.
4. Boss Battle is a collab from Xoon Legacy between MarioNintendo and myself. The original submission was this one, but Kommi only wanted the Edit one, and released it that way. When Mario released his complete works, he released the Hard one, that was left out of the Xoon release, but without the Edit file (as I had apparently never sent it to him - oops.) This file is only here because 1. It's fucking awesome 2. So it's finally released as intended. Hard is literally just trills instead of jacks.

This project was supposed to only be around 10 or so files, but I kept having fun, and wanted to add a little bit of everything. Hopefully everyone likes at least one file. That was kind of what I am hoping for. Thanks to everyone who helped, or chatted with me about any of these, playtest any of them, and anything else I've forgot.

Also, I'm not arrogant enough to think this will happen, but just in case: if the file in the pack is mine, do NOT convert it for osu. If it's not mine, seek permission from the person who made it, thanks. If it's a collab, with me, the answer is still a hard no. FFRMania has permission for every file of mine except for Levitating, as it won't make sense if converted.

If someone wants me personally to recommend a few things related PURELY to my own files in here:

1. I'd start with files like Ano Yo Iki, Battle Pressure, and Ink and Blood as they're probably the most approachable here.
2. Then I'd play say, Odo, Say So, and Just Like You as the base line for the more experimental files.
3. Fear In a Handful of Dust is meant to be the finale, as it's easily the hardest file here, and don't let the ratings tell you otherwise.
4. My personal favorite file in here from me, is Septette for the Dead Princess.

I'd also recommend folks not skip Twisted Swordsmanship. I really feel that file is gonna get slept on, but it's a good time, and it actually rates really nicely if that's your thing. But all the guest files are good, so honestly, don't skip any of them.

Regardless, thanks for reading, hopefully downloading, and playing.

THICC paq

You should play this 9/10

Re: A Flower Viewing [4K Pack]
 

It's a lot thiccer than I intended that's for sure lol

Re: A Flower Viewing [4K Pack]
 

Official mirrors were added, and totally just an excuse for me to bump.

Re: A Flower Viewing [4K Pack]
 

I guess you could say it was bumped because you SAY SO

Re: A Flower Viewing [4K Pack]
 

HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN WAITING TO SAY THAT JOKE.

Re: A Flower Viewing [4K Pack]
 

hey cool a pack. I like some of the song choices here- i look forward to trying it out.

Re: A Flower Viewing [4K Pack]
 

PAQ. Also nice song selection.

Re: A Flower Viewing [4K Pack]
 

Looking forward to it.

It hits a lot of genres, and even where it overlaps they instrumentals are super different. Also, PAQ.

Re: A Flower Viewing [4K Pack]
 

A LOT longer than you think :smirk:

Re: A Flower Viewing [4K Pack]
 

Like what, when I sent it to you the first time? lol

Re: A Flower Viewing [4K Pack]
 

Around that time, yes.

Re: A Flower Viewing [4K Pack]
 

I like your pack, but its a little too jacky for my tastes.

Some fire song choices though. I'm a sucker for any chart of Marigold and I wasn't ready for it to be a jack skillcheck file.

Re: A Flower Viewing [4K Pack]
 

Fun fact, the Marigold file is based heavily on the Deemo file that's the hardest. So where that one spikes, this one spikes / within reason of course.

But yeah I have to say, I did hit the jack patterns a lot in here on a bit of thinking on it.
