With my latest modifications from this morning, it's possible to put in many more.

Hmm... I should add an UltraFast category for stuff like C975 since I know there's probably others like you who would want these kinds of changes. Are there any others you'd like to see or know others would want in?

That'd be with me. Send me a PM, and we can discuss it more that way if you're interested in joining the project.

Given that this is for pad, I as a pad player myself prefer to have a very wide range of speed mods. Since songs have various BPM's, you're going to want a big list of speed mods. As in ITG, they had many speed mods in custom themes. My favorite theme, AKA "H4X Theme" had modifiers going from 1.0x - 9.0x I believe, each going up in a .5 scale. For example, 1.0x, 1.5x, 2.0x, 2.5x etc. etc. So if I were you guys, I would implement something like that, where the speed mods increase by .5

As far as Cmods, as I recall, most pad players don't use this, since it takes away the difficulty on files with gimmicks in it. But just like in the H4X theme, they had a lot of Cmods, at least I think, where it ranged from C450 - C1000, each increasing by 50. Example: C450, c500, c550, c600, etc. Or it may have gone up by 25, I'm not entirely sure though. But as someone who's been playing pad for many many years, I would suggest having A LOT of speed mods.

Re: Pulsen

Ok, I'll add one with the 0.5 increments. I don't know if you've had a chance to test out the r0003 build of Pulsen, but it goes up in 0.25 increments, we just ran out of room for too many more.

Done. I attached what you were looking for below. Looks like there's room for more numbers. Any other suggestions for it? I could even add 1.337 just for kicks, haha.

We use something called M-mods instead of C-mods. It's a combination of an X-mod and a C-mod except there's a speed cap. That cap, as of right now, is defined by the speed mod set you from the Personal Settings area.

Re: Pulsen, A new Stepmania Rip Off Game

sounds like A-mods on thirdstyle..

[TC_Halogen]

Re: Pulsen, A new Stepmania Rip Off Game

Yeah, except that feature was done way before ThirdStyle came out. M-mods have been out since OpenITG, and that was more than two years ago.

Nicely done, and yes I have the game downloaded. 100%/FC'd all the songs on pad with my cobalt flux. I did notice the .25 increase, but I felt it was unnecessary since none of the songs have extremely high or low BPM's. So the current mods are okay, for now.

P.S> Nyan Cat is fun to play on "Pop Tart Cat".

Re: Pulsen, A new Stepmania Game

M-Mods are similar to C-Mods, except for two things. One, there is a speed cap built-in to prevent any BPM spikes from forcing a slow mod overall. Second, you will have to go through the timing changes anyway. No skipping out on stops, delays, etc. You will learn the chart, and perhaps be a better player for it.

MrsMagic5239: any charts that you liked or didn't like? Feedback will be helpful for future packs.

I liked all the files on "Expert/Edit" except for the song, "Take This". Around the 1:50 mark, those doubles/jumps just seem out of place/don't make much sense. That's about the only bad thing as far as files go, IMO.
