    Awesome CDtitles

    That's about it, the charts are worse than QED's and paying for a game "like a Stepmania" is more bullshit than Yaboy.

          If I could get the executable for this game I could verify if it was in fact built off of StepMania source code, which in that case would make it HIGHLY illigal, and I would enjoy sending them an e-mail with proof of findings pretending I'm going to sue them or some shit.

          EDIT: Download is free. I guess they can charge if they want to. Still retarded as **** but not as retarded as that jewish one.

            A few things need to be clarified about Pulsen it seems.

            Originally posted by fido123

            I know this quote was edited originally, but I will still clarify. StepMania 5's engine is used, and that is an open source engine. The licensing for the engine allows for people to make derivative, closed source variations. The licensing also does not deal with the individual songs and charts themselves. Those can be charged money by however much a company wants. There is no legality issue here.

            Furthermore, remember that not everyone can make music or charts for free all of the time. If anything, supporting the music artists and chart artists by paying for the DLC also helps support StepMania.

            If there are any complaints about some of the features, it may be more productive to bring them up to the people that worked on the game directly instead of just bashing the people behind the game.

            In the interest of full disclaimers, it should be noted that I am not only a developer for StepMania 5, but I also programmed some unique items for Pulsen and wrote a number of the charts.

              Reminds me of Mungyodance with the hit-miss judge system.

              Remember, since SM is open-source, you can package it in a CD/Download and charge it.

              At least it's a superior fork over Step It Up/SM CDs on eBay.
              The above post has a 50% chance of being useless. Potentially. Maybe.

                I lookd up the MIT license which is what SM uses and yeah this is legal.

                Honestly I never really expect people to allow people to sell stuff they've made with a license like that. I assumed pretty much everybody has licensing similar to most open source programs I see with a GPL license, where you can change and distrtribute it just not for money.

                Still though why hasn't anybody sued the Jewish DDR though? They're using charts people on this site have made IIRC.

                Honestly why hasn't anybody sued these guys yet?

                  Re: Pulsen, A new Stepmania Rip Off Game

                  Well it kind of is a double edged sword because most songs for ITG rebirth people weren't liscenced to use either way. Only problem with Step it up was if the jewish authors were to say that those songs had to be removed.

                    If you bought an albulm, and make a stepchart for it, that's legal as far as I know. I don't know much about law but at the very least it's plain wrong to take somebody elses work (stepchart) and call it your own.

                      They are selling the songs and charts not the stepmania engine aren't they
                      Actually that's how it should be like. We are actually supposed to pay for all the licensed songs in our song folder otherwise it's illegal

                        Hi everyone, glad to see people here so energetic about Pulsen and other rhythm games.

                        Upon reading this thread, there appears to be a bit of confusion about Pulsen. Some of that was already cleared up it seems, but if you have any more questions you'd like answered, I'd be more than happy to answer them for you!

                          I don't understand why you would make Pulsen. Stepmania.com has the StepMix comp every year, and there are literally over 10000 files out there that people can download, of varying difficulty levels.

                              The only advantage to Pulsen would be to cater to the new players so when they master all of these charts, they can come to SM or FFR.

                                I think the main thing about Pulsen is they're going to have a story mode and a bunch of additional stuff.
