Re: Dark Chancellor Pack 2 (ITS HAPPENING.GIF) Submissions Open

you've implied the file is shit with your blatant mockery of it by posting an image in this thread showcasing it for everyone to see saying "this picture explains it all"


thanks

Re: Dark Chancellor Pack 2 (ITS HAPPENING.GIF) Submissions Open

did I ever say the whole file is shit? again, where are you getting these assumptions? you won't find a quote of me saying that because I didn't say it

regardless of how good or how bad the rest of the chart is, I would personally reject the chart until that pattern gets fixed

see:
- chart's dumb. especially that pattern (rejected)
- chart's fantastic. only problem I have is that dumb pattern. fix it and you're good to go (this is not accepted, so is it not rejected???)

I even mentioned before I couldn't actually play the rest of the chart anyways

hey man cool post but uh

o btw

Waterlily Junction - this picture explains it all

Rejected

kommi's right in this instance

Re: Dark Chancellor Pack 2 (ITS HAPPENING.GIF) Submissions Open

but really sg

Re: Dark Chancellor Pack 2 (ITS HAPPENING.GIF) Submissions Open

o so when you make quick sarcastic comments putting down the things I say and do it's fine and all in good fun

but when I do it I'm an asshole

I was sorta poking fun a bit by exaggerating how bad the pattern is but it still doesn't change the fact that if I were judging this chart like any other I would ask for it to be changed. I don't know why everyone's getting buttmad

Re: Dark Chancellor Pack 2 (ITS HAPPENING.GIF) Submissions Open

when you do it instead of judging a file yeah it's problem lol

Re: Dark Chancellor Pack 2 (ITS HAPPENING.GIF) Submissions Open

like I said before I actually can't play it because it crashed my sm

Re: Dark Chancellor Pack 2 (ITS HAPPENING.GIF) Submissions Open

upgrade to sm5

Re: Dark Chancellor Pack 2 (ITS HAPPENING.GIF) Submissions Open

turn it into a 434 pattern because more players are right handed l0l

Actually I don't think that kind of thing matters in Stepmania because you ultimately get to get techniques by training and innate qualities don't have much importance.
i.e. You get good at right hand jacks because everytime Zagh puts a jack in his file they're for the right hand.

Re: Dark Chancellor Pack 2 (ITS HAPPENING.GIF) Submissions Open

Megapacks are actually a terrible invention. I have no idea why no one has come up with anything better yet.

Megapacks
>download 5 gig file
>don't like 90% of the songs
>don't like 90% of the steps
>like 120 files in it, can't even get through half of it without getting bored/tired

Submitting to megapacks
>Stone age submission protocols
>Washed up ******s telling you to change your file

It would've been sweet if the trend had become just people making packs of their own files. Then at least I could've just followed the people whose files I liked and ended up with a great chance of finding good songs and charts. Even themed packs are better since at least you'll find appropriate music.

A lot of people are too lazy to make 20+ files for their own batch release. It would require over a year of making files and doing nothing with them


Also, lurker (privately, umad) and James May have expressed interest in judging. I know more of who lurker is since he was around when I was doing this shit 6 years ago but I'm willing to take a chance on both of you. You can both be either part time or full time judges. Difference being, you guys can either both judge everything or you can judge some files and the other person judges the ones one person doesn't.

PMing you guys some info

Re: Dark Chancellor Pack 2 (ITS HAPPENING.GIF) Submissions Open

as much as lurker likes to shit on stepmania all the time


he does know a fair bit



also gonna look into marill see if it's actually sm5 exclusive for some reason




Revious:

Akubyou Taisan
-Played this for VGMP4, loved it. Still love it.

Amatias
-the first piano roll you have set as a hold, I don't see why you couldn't step it accurately given the difficulty
-Throughout the file I notice a lot of spots where the guitar notes could be placed as mini-jacks, as they are done sometimes but not consistently.
-The first guitar solo before the midway point I'd focus on the solo solely to avoid having it too confusing, or if you want to layer everything don't forget to layer in some stuff during the single 12th notes to make it consistent with the first half of the solo.
-This is one of the better files I've played so far. A few nitpicks for perfection sake but damn this is fun.

April.#2
-the mine column at the start is a cool trick, but maybe change it every few mesures so it's not always on the left? Just to avoid having too much repetition with the 234 columns
-Feels like a cool old school meets modern simfile flashbulb file. The rolls were great, I'd even like to see more of them (but it's fine as is). No complaints regarding the accuracy of the file everything was excellent.

Endless Despair II
-Implying this is the VGMP4 submission (rip in piece) then yes this file was fantastic.

I'm Your Daddy
-some parts you omit arrows in place for mines, but honestly I'd place the arrows accordingly (feels a little strange not hitting the 16th percs at those sections)
-Ending becomes a little repetitive but cuts right in time. Really fun breaks file.

Insane Techniques
-I'm actually gonna skip on judging this file since I stepped it for solo and have a lot of bias regarding how I stepped it haha. I'm just seeing everything differently.

Kirlian Shores
-I think I noticed a few sections where some 16th hi-hats were missing in between transitions
-I know this has been stepped to death but I think this is the first one I play through. Very enjoyable.

Magic
-I don't think mini-holds are necessary for the first part's synth.
-I actually thought I stepped this for a sec. It's like identical to what I would do haha.

Minuit à fond la Caisse
-My judgment from VGMP4 stands. Just gets really repetitive and boring after a while.

My Time
-I think this tops My Unfortunate Erection. I thoroughly enjoyed this.

Old Obscurity
-If the song was about 5db louder It'd feel a little more climactic haha. Idk what people would think about this song. I mean I personally have nothing against the file.

Pepper Steak
-there are definitely some 16ths missing in this
-Man what game is this? has like the weirdest fuckin music haha

Proof of Existence
-way to butcher the name faget
-heads up, as I see you're using the same sync as bcmp, it's incredibly late (like by a fuckload, -0.1)
-there are a lot of key instruments missed in some sections. and I'm not sure I'm huge on the polyrhythm sections.
-The ending was really fun though. If the first half of the file was polished up a bit I'd love to see this in.

The Divine Comedy Reverse
-those 32nd jacks need to go. it's just too huge of a difficulty spike compared to the rest of the file. Rest is quite odd but still well made. Consider this a conditional accept.

For left hand jacks, play Linus files

Re: Dark Chancellor Pack 2 (ITS HAPPENING.GIF) Submissions Open

Even themed packs are better since at least you'll find appropriate music.

as much as i agree that megapacks actively discourage people from downloading them for the reasons you listed (ffrcp4, odi3, and nb5 all do this and i can only assume yolomania 3 will do the same), i don't think anyone else is interested in making a mlp pack sorry

Re: Dark Chancellor Pack 2 (ITS HAPPENING.GIF) Submissions Open

woah a blurk file? i'll get something going for this. been a bit since i've stepped but i'll figure something out xd
