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

dl'd all the files, openin up sm. if i missed any files they're probably revisions and the email is just a giant mess so I probably missed them sry



Atr
-damn you're really hitting it out of the ballpark with your submissions


Bad Boy
-the start feels awkward with the holds for piano notes
-once the drop hits I feel like the wubs could be single note jacks
-file in general feels oddly accentuated, especially pitch relevancy


Bodom Beach Terror
-yes




and brace yaselves






































hope u liek 337.5 bpm jumpstream

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

the first atropos file I remember my stepmania wouldn't recognize, so I couldn't even find it let alone open it

this is probably because rparty's file (the first one) uses the real title (Atröpøs, note the o's) in both the folder name and the .sm file, and stepmania likes to have problems with non-standard characters
i was able to play it but the title was glitched on the song wheel
haven't played rcaliber's yet

this file's fate hangs in the balance between dcp2 and cringefest

TUNE IN NEXT TIME

honestly i'd say just put it in cringefest, it's going to stand out like a sore thumb if it gets into this pack

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

Submitted something. Been six years since I've stepped my last file. Let's see if I can get back into making files and stuff. Wish I had more songs from all the crap I listen to, but most of it aren't fit for stepping. Whomp.

Yes it totally was, but didn't you like, make most of that file? :v

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

it was half and half~


more revious


Cedar Shed
-personally I thought this was super fun. only complaint is that the patterns are very plain and it feels like a pretty old fashionned file. The roll percs are stepped as holds, but these would work even greater as rolls if you're using 3.95/sm5. Given the simplicity of this file I think it might need a bit of embellishing


City
-This file is unfortunately too repetitive. It's very well stepped, but constant jumpstream just kills it. Maybe a cut would be needed.


Collision Point
-tragically short, but excellent file. A few piano notes missed here and there that break up the flow a bit but nothing major.


Danger Danger
-some parts feel a bit odd, like the 32nd jumpstream (could be just as single notes)
-towards the end part of the song some mini-jacks could be used to follow the notes a little more accurately. alternatively some jump jacks are present that I don't think are warranted.
-song has a weird cut.


Dream Express
-sure is 2007 in here
-first part feels like a complete convert of zagh's solo chart.
-some parts feel a little inconsistent, especially with percussion mini-jacks
-on the 2nd half of the file when the main melody repeats I'd start the layered jumpstream earlier imo.
-Needs some tweaks here and there for consistency but a file like this would be cool to have in the pack.


ching chong wapitty wap (ghakimx)
-the one handed patterns are eh but they're alright
-the rhythm guitar is layered pretty inconsistently throughout.
-mini-holds are a bit too much. can be taken out.
-during the end of the keyboard solo I think they're 12th notes not 16ths?
-lots of small details missed everywhere. needs a lot of tweaking.


Idola
-wow what a great file. loved this. needs some fixes though: 16th mini-jacks are a little too much at this speed, and the 12th hand jacks are too much haha. with those I'd gladly accept this in.


IX
-I think this file is just too overlayered for what's presented. the long wristjacks and jump jacks just kill the flow of the file. very smoc styled haha.


Magic (both)
-I honestly love both files. Edge is on gundam-dude's file because I get hard as fuck at these kinds of technical files.


Story 2
-wow uh


The Ceiling couldn't hold us
-well it's a good file. well it's over 6 minutes. yeah know what nothing wrong with that.


Twirl
-ait yea the xmods were cool
-this has a very macg feel to it if he stepped spread.

You sound like Seamus Finigan or the Wesley brothers from Harry Potter.

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

Cool. I'll see what the last two judges say before I add the rolls... I rather like it as it is

Story 2
-wow uh

what's that mean lmfao

[Rebirth0]

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

Catastophie v2
- This is a bit closer to what I envisioned but some parts are still lacking. I would also cut out probably the last 50 or so notes since the song is clearly over and it makes less sense to step that part.

This is close enough to where I would be willing to help fix things myself. Care to let me?
Pending

City
- The file is indeed fun to play, and I don't see much wrong with the chart, but I do have an issue with the song length. I'd personally like to see if it can be cut to under 3:00 in length. I'd be absolutely willing to accept it if we can cut this somehow. (Could probably take out the entire first "countdown" part and the part that follows, but include the second "countdown" and everything after that.)

I could probably even do this myself if the judges agree a cut is necessary
Pending

Story
- It is a good file with an accurate chart. But my past experience with files like this is that they never get played more than once if at all. My goal is to have a pack of all replayable files, and I just don't see this as being one of them.
Rejected

The Ceiling Could Never Hold Us
- Another good file that is really long. I don't see why the song/file can't just end at m132 at 2:40. Cutting this would likely get it accepted.
Pending

Twirl
- Good file, weak song, very nice xmod chart. Good outweighs the bad for this
- I personally think you should end the chart after m121. It would turn it into a "short" file and the last few notes don't seem worth the 15 seconds you'd wait to finish out the file.
Accepted

Atropos (rCaliberGX)
- This chart is quite a bit better than the other one I played for this song. I would choose this chart over the other
Accepted

Bad Boy
- I don't really like the copy paste same patterns for the first 10 measures of the song and again half way through. That lost my interest before the song really started.
- This seems understepped. There seems to be a lot that you can do with the song but I don't feel that in the chart.
Pending

Botines
- Chart is correct for the most part and could be accepted, but it lacks layering. I think you could at least put triples or quads to certain sounds to make it more interesting to play.
- I also don't know about the amount of holds you have here. I know what they're going to but it doesn't look that good. I'm undecided on this aspect
Pending

Danger Danger
- When the song really starts at m19 you could do more to make it a really fun chart. Jacks, hands, etc. I think jacks in specific would fit nicely in this song. The last handful of measures look great, you just need to get the rest of the chart looking similar.
Pending

Cedar Shed
- After wanting to quit out after the first 30 seconds I'm a bit glad I didn't. The file is actually pretty good and would be a very nice easy file addition to the pack. I think something can be done to change up the repetitive patterns though. Something this easy and long needs to not have any copy paste notes. Could maybe even be layered a little more too.
Accepted pending fixes

Do Not Go Gently
- You sent two .sm files in the folder. I used the one without the 06 in the beginning because that looked like the newest one.
- Doesn't really seem layered correctly. The song also isn't that great. I didn't really enjoy the chart
