There's your problem. You play on a different scale of comprehension than a lot of keyboard players do. If your base level of skill are pad-type difficulties, then you will indeed have a lot of trouble playing the kind of charts that are made today. It's just a matter of playing style to get used to, simple as that.

cool, I'm pretty good at pad packs on keyboard too but uh
these files are made specifically for keyboard play

if you downloaded a keyboard pack in the Year Of Our Lord Jesus Christ 2014 expecting pad files, then I don't know what to tell you aside from "get gud"

That's an extremely low bar for "good" you're setting there rofl

then why bother making this thread? if you don't care what we think, then we don't care what you think

tuxdude: you're coming into a community where a large majority of the files are driven by spread-style play. Given that you're referring to jumps as doubles, and that you mention that you can wreck pad 11s/12s, it seems apparent to me that you are a player that uses the arrow keys to play the game, likely with two fingers (as many pad players coming to keyboard do, apparently).

The files here are not terrible by any means, and your lack of experience in the community substantially reduces any credibility your statement might have. It's clear that you're not playing files by the means that they are intended. On another note: you might want to take a look at some other BEMANI inspired games (namely: IIDX/Pop'n) and notice how their charts utilizes many doubles/triples/quads/(etc).

EDIT: if you're going to continue to: a.) be brash to users that are giving you an explanation why the files are the way they are; b.) flaunt around your skill as if it is something to be desired and c.) assume that your opinion is objectively better than everyone else because of your supposed skill (p.s. I play pad too and I can wreck 14+ files, but I never flaunt that around ), this thread is going to go nowhere and I will just close it in an effort to prevent you from being ridiculed by other users.

you're wrong. point to me a file that is off sync or you're just talking out of your ass.

debatable, but generally wrong as well. there is plenty of files that aren't "note spam".

1. It's a community where being good (not in quotation marks) requires being able to hit notes fast and accurately.

2. These community packs do not necessarily represent the ideals of everyone within it. Many people present in the community today were not even around when these packs were constructed, and of those who were, only some were part of it.

3. If you don't care what we think, then you have nothing to gain from posting a thread in public.

False. I use the erjk keys to play.

there's an inherent difference in how pad files and kb files are made
welcome to keyboard packs, where we cater to people who play primarily with their fingers

this isn't 2005 dude, get good

Satori de pon. Not that noticable until you remove the jumps. Then it sticks out like a sore thumb

satori de pon is.. what? off sync or note spam? you're wrong on both accounts either way. fix your offset in stepmania or get your ears checked. better yet, look at it in ddream and see how the beats line up to the waveform for objective proof you're wrong.

If you haven't noticed. I mentioned many times I do play with my fingers.

i am literally unable to comprehend this post because this implies that taking out the jumps changes the bpm??

w@ ????

Here is visual proof that Satori de Pon is not offsync:



The beat lines align perfectly with the waveform peaks.

The removal or inclusion of the jumps has nothing to do with the sync.

Are there any other files that you think are offsync?

My stepmania sync is fine. I found it to be off sync in both openITG and stepmania 5.

no, I have noticed, but by saying that you wreck pad 11s and 12s, you are... at a serious disadvantage when talking about keyboard charts

i have an extremely sensative ear not just from my experience in playing ddr but i have been playing music since i was little so i notice notive a bpm change of less than 1 bpm and the same goes for syncing. if the songs offset is even off by .03 or so i notice it. i don't deny that i am the only one who notices it. it is very very small but as i said i have an extremely sensative ear.
