Untitled StepMania Pack submissions

Re: Untitled StepMania Pack submissions

Of course fun is the ultimate goal. The problem is that pure jumpstream files have been done thousands of times and don't really offer anything new. So in a sense, it's not that fun to play a file that's really similar to so many others. The file was well-stepped and a pretty good jumpstream file, but it's just specifically not what we're looking for. I hope you're not discouraged to send your files.

Yup, I'm not saying you don't care about "fun". Rather I just know the files I enjoy the most are quite classical files in general and this is something that kinda stands out in what I do ordinarily, and I know for a matter of fact this is not something you'd be totally hyped for. I'd rather deepen what could make my file funnier rather than what could make my file more unique. Doesn't go further than that

Re: Untitled StepMania Pack submissions

did you look at the revision for my file?

Re: Untitled StepMania Pack submissions

He is doing that.

i meant instead of single posts one after another with one review, do batches of reviews


also I realize it's easy to be upset over judgment, whether it's fair or subjective is up for debate. Just remember it's someone else's pack and what they're looking for is entirely up to them. I sent what I thought was a masterpiece to odi3 just to have it shit on. gotta deal w/it

Re: Untitled StepMania Pack submissions

basically what Kommi said, yeah, though I would still ask for a more constructive tone overall. when ODIpack3 was under progress, I remember really appreciating GLoVE's reviews because they went in-depth into the inconsistencies/issues for improvement but they were also very friendly and made clear when a file really had potential. I trust Fission and ilikexd, though

Re: Untitled StepMania Pack submissions

Well Kommi I just know what I want my files to be like, chart making can't be quite objective because there are plenty of ways to correctly do something in fact so...............
plenty of ways to be wrong is probably what constitutes the "objective" polarity, plenty of ways to be right would constitute the "subjective" polarity I guess.

Anyway, I'm stepping a quite unusual S.S.H. music (yes, S.S.H., for an attempt of original file) and I think I could contribute to this pack. I guess critiques and feedbacks over how I could improve the creativity of the whole chart may round off something satisfying to my mind.
(even though that's probably the only sim I could work myself to send there because of how it differs from what I tend to usually do tho)

With regard to Destination, I thought it was pretty well stepped. But it plays so similarly to so many other 16th jumpstream files that it's just not something we're looking for.

I can go more in-depth into Bright Sound if you want. We can talk on Skype or I can post some detailed notes here.

Re: Untitled StepMania Pack submissions

Sure! Could you PM me if you have time later? That was a weird song for me and I'd appreciate any thoughts I could get.

Re: Untitled StepMania Pack submissions

alright, posting more than one this time so i don't quintuple post like i was doing before

Vegetable Soup (samurai7694) - ACCEPTED
- some of the 32nd bursts are rough but it's not a big deal since they can just be jumptrilled with how you patterned them
- i think you could afford to layer the snare a bit more in some parts but it's fine if you just want to focus on one thing at a time during these busy sections
- really cool ma file overall, nice job

Moe Moe Kyunstep (kommisar) - ACCEPTED
- missing 32nds @ 241s, 248.1s and 255.1s?
- well executed dubstep file with a good difficulty curve to keep it interesting

Poquito Mas (AlexDest) - ACCEPTED
- the buildup with the single notes and mines is really cool and the ending climax is also awesome

they went in-depth into the inconsistencies/issues for improvement but they were also very friendly and made clear when a file really had potential

thanks for the constructive criticism, i really appreciate it. i'll try to start doing this more. i'm definitely not trying to intimidate people by stamping REJECTED everywhere.

Re: Untitled StepMania Pack submissions

The Funk Is (Valor) - ACCEPTED

90.8s - ghost 32nd note at the end

Turntable Utabied (Valor) - REJECTED

song is incredibly draggy and repetitive

Mirror Mirror (Revision) (rCaliberGX) - CONDITIONAL

90.88s - missing jump
96.83s - pattern choice could be better
121.9s - missing 16ths, mines probably should go
124s - mines really should go, this pattern is really really hard already
129s - mines in this section make no sense. they dont seem to go to anything, its really bad at 148s
although edit chart is an interesting idea it's really just going to confuse people and doesn't serve any purpose

otherwise it's a lot better from the original version and pretty good. fix those things and it's accepted

Re: Untitled StepMania Pack submissions

just one for now

A Type (Valor) - REJECTED
- the 8th note sections make the file feel repetitive. could possibly be a stronger file with a cut, but no promise on that.
- i strongly disagree with stepping the 32nd/64th rolls as just holds. it completely kills the build up.

Re: Untitled StepMania Pack submissions

also moe moe kyunstep was an irl collab with don, if it gets accepted don't forget (cd title should say it anyways)



fuc we stepped that file over a year ago now that I think about it hahah
