Default Two questions about SM-SSC

Because I recently updated my Mac (haters get out!) to OS X Lion, the only version of Stepmania that will work from now on seems to be SM-SSC. While the interface is pretty slick, there are two issues I'm currently facing, with which I might need a hand.

1. SSC doesn't seem to generate .dwi files. Instead, it generates .ssc files. I know that the submission rules ask for a .dwi file, but I'm struggling right now as I can't produce it at all! Does anyone know how to fix this? Are .ssc files equivalent to .dwi?


2. C-mods have been altered, I believe. It looks like the developer of SSC removed C-mods like C-600 available in k//eternal themes and such for elusive m550 mods... Is there a way to fix this back by editing something inside of the SSC folders? Have I lost the mod forever? What does m550 do in the first place?
The question has been answered, thank you!!

Thanks in advance to anyone who has the slightest clue of what is going on.

The cmods can be trivially modified in the file Data/SpeedMods.txt

As for file creation, I hear that you should still be using SM3.9 if you can figure out how to get that to work.

Thanks for the help with question 2, though I should note that my song was indeed stepped in DDReam in the first place and that only a rusty shoe horse could not figure out that it doesn't generate .dwi files either.

Question 1 is still left out in the blue...

keep sm3.9 so you can convert your sm files to dwi

basically all you have to do is load in sm3.9 and save once without changing anything.

oh, you can't run sm 3.9, nvm ):

SM SSC doesn't produce .dwi files because it's a pretty outdated filetype to use in stepmania anymore since no one plays in DWI anymore. They didn't think FFR required .dwi though, which I don't blame. They're just trying to move on.

They kept .sm because there's still plenty of people in SM3.9/3.9+/OpenITG and it's needed for custom songs in r21 cabs.

The solution to the first question is to use an older version of sm-ssc.
