Enjoy!

Tested and true to their word, r21 allows you to load your own songs on the game from your USB flash drive. I played some of mine about half an hour ago.

If anyone is wondering, here's what you need to have in the song folder (each song folder is individual, like StepMania, and they are all located inside the main "Songs" folder.):

-- 1 OGG-format music file at 48,000 sample rate.
-- 1 SM-format file, which is a default output for StepMania.

That's it. =) Have fun, people.

Re: ITG2 r21 Update
 
alright, let me get this straight...

so all i gotta do is

:usb:

---songs(folder)---
+
+
+---song file name
+
+
+---1 OGG-format music file at 48,000 sample rate.
(btw, whats the sample rate?)
1 SM-format file



and thats it? what about banners and backgrounds? also, would the steps be in sync and would the file be messed up if i add mods?

If it's been updated to r21 (You can check on the title screen after you put a credit in) and Custom Songs are enabled. This will also appear on the title screen. If it isn't enabled, get someone with op-screen access to do it for you.

You can find the patch there. To update the machine, put the r21 file into the root directory of your flash drive, and plug it into the machine. Go to the op menu, and there should be the "Update Machine" option. Make a backup of the data first, though, if you think it may crash. It's happened before.

After it's updated, under one of the submenus (I think it's Machine Options or something similar) there's an option called "Enable Custom Songs" that needs to be turned ON.

As far as "converting" DWIs to SMs, it's fairly easy. Load the song in StepMania, open it up with the Edit/Sync Songs menu, and just hit "Save." It outputs a DWI as well as an SM.

Are limits on these songs as follows:

- 2 minutes max length
- No background or banner art support

?

Neonatrias 10-13-2006 06:50 PM

Re: ITG2 r21 Update
 
Yep, that's exactly right. The 2-minute limit seems kind of short, but you can get a lot done in 2 minutes. =)

Re: ITG2 r21 Update
 
I recently did a bunch of my songs and it works out pretty well. I used GoldWave to convert the mp3 files to ogg and the same program lets you cut songs down too if you're looking to create new files. The length limit is understandable because people wouldn't want to wait for people to finish 6-minute songs when they want to play.
