I didn't want to participate in this thread since all the legitimate claims of problems are being thrown out as incoherent whining, but....
1. Rates above ~1.6 will crash when browsing the song selection menu, and when returning to it from gameplay, seemingly randomly. Why is this? Oh...it might be the part where the code which deals with speeding up the music was torn apart causing it to sound AWFUL and crash. Hmmm...I wonder what happens when you put it back together? Lets see...it never crashes even on 3.0+ and no longer drifts off to the right side, and since someone put in the work of fixing the ringing it's actually better than using rates on 3.95. Here's an example from my stream of a song which would normally sound really bad on rates on both 3.95 and SM5, but after putting the rate system back together is actually acceptable. https://www.twitch.tv/xwidghet/v/67700637 2. Stepmania 5 stutters/lags. To specify, I'm talking about where stepmania doesn't have a new frame in time for the next vsync. This could be the part where when running windows it always sleeps 1 millisecond, even if that means the next frame will be late. This mixed with whatever happened to the opengl render that made it monumentally slow, will make users think SM5 is garbage. Around three years ago or so I ported the DX8 renderer to DX9, and the result was that OpenGL and DX9 had the same frame rate during gameplay. Now when I run it, OpenGL is 1/2 to 2/3rds the speed of DX9. Anyone happen to know why? OpenGL is supposed to be the faster and better renderer. 3. The timing is different. Why? Is it arguably more accurate? No SM5 dev who seems to know what's different will expand upon this, just confirm that it's different. 4. Move to saving files in App Data. I understand that the move to app data was done to get around problems, but why don't you give the user an easy way to get to it? Unknowledgable users will just have no idea where their screenshots etc are going. Could be a hotkey, or even just a short cut. I do have more, but I think I'll wait to see what kind of response I get before going on. Last edited by PolygonEater; 05-28-2016 at 01:28 AM.. |

I just keep using 3.95 because 5.x versions lag/stutter and often crashes for me
![]() And the overall look on 3.95 is more appealing for me personally. |

Also, Sir, he develops for a game and, as he said, if it was a paying job and he refused to work on something that doesn't appeal to him, HE would get thrown out of a balcony, not the costumer. Also, "shitty little ignorant children" and HERPDERP, among other slang you have used in this thread are definitely NOT good examples (or exhibitions) of how to communicate with your TARGET AUDIENCE when you're representing a product and looking for feedback. Shame on you, adult baby you. Quote:

Also, funny as it may be, I have yet to be able to make Online work on SM5.1, so I'll stick with my "random broken pull" until I am able to play a god-dammed match with bboy without the game crashing 5 times. How do you justify that the "broken pull" that is 3.95 works better than your shinny product, do devs like insulting the consumers that much? Quote:
I'm glad SM6 is aiming to be this ambitious but, if you boys keep this attitude, I will have no choice but to just make sure I let my kids know when it comes out in 15 years. Quote:
I do appreciate the FREE work you all do, but definitely not your attitude and, if his was nearly as annoying and childish as yours, I can see why he quit StepMania. I would personally quit life but, choices. Quote:

you do realize that people who actually play the game semi seriously dont want to spend 3 months adjusting to sm5 when it provides little benefit for them as 4k players over 3.95

Why is this even a topic? I'm pretty sure we're all adults here.

Thank you for that reply, Jousway! See that's the kind of discussion we've been looking for since this thread started.
Now let's keep the ball rolling! I'll look into the online issue and send you the info. As for this... I meant it more as a joke but I apologize if he got offended. I am aware of the HUGE impact AJ has had in stepmania and, had I known it was him, I would have never said this. If you talk to him, send him my apologies, please. |

Hello, are you enjoying this legendary thread? This is when Stepmania 5's development stopped. It all started here. Amazing, right?

I keep using 3.95 because I don't feel like getting used to the subtle timing shift on sm5
