Made a new simfile for the first time in 15 years

Hi all, OG Solord Linus here. (who are you??)

Been away for so long, pretty surprised to see the Stepmania (Etterna) + Solo scene + this forum is still alive. So I made a present (in 3 hours) for all...

Charles-Valentin Alkan - Etude Without Opus

https://www.dropbox.com/s/0krd9q5mcm...0Opus.zip?dl=0

This is much like my Etude Op.10 No.1 file. Same old stepping style, Chordfest and Dumps, Silly graphics etc

Included 3 4k charts and 3 6k charts

Beginner: I think this is playable on feet
Heavy: Actually stepped this first
Medium: Heavy seems a bit too hard and I toned it down just a little bit

Not sure if I will step more file, this is so time consuming for me now. Hope someone will enjoy this.

I may as well have not existed before you left, but welcome back lol

Hi Linus,
I can't install stepmania on my computer, can you record this as a YouTube video? I'd watch it.

I'm just dying to ask: What was the story behind linus' bullshit?

This chart: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8FRgIs5l7Ac

**-paexaea-** · 04-1-2023, 08:32 PM

Feel like putting this here. You were one of the people who inspired me to pick up 6k and get good. Happy to see you return in some fashion.

Aquellex · 04-2-2023, 08:24 AM

Can you play Alkan on piano?

**Flossy_** · 04-2-2023, 08:53 AM

**Mollocephalus** · 04-2-2023, 11:01 AM

**MarioNintendo** · 04-2-2023, 11:44 AM

There is a readme in the folder.

I think Snapps (an FFR veteran) mashed up some of my sims into this medley and made a meme out of it (with a gif of a stickman mashing the keyboard then turned into some gore) IIRC...

Sonny was a player active in bemanistyle forum, constantly bashing my sims as absolute bullshit, why would anyone play these etc Hence the title

Nice little piece of history

Thank you :> I guess I will make some more sims if I got time. tbh I don't really like simply turning a music game song into 6k, someone gotta contribute...

**kommisar** · 04-4-2023, 06:10 AM

**Bynary Fission** · 04-16-2023, 04:43 PM

Okay, I have just two things to say:

1. I literally just heard this song randomly on Youtube for the first time a few weeks ago, and now I see it here. That's freaky.

2. Linus is back???

**MarioNintendo** · 04-16-2023, 10:24 PM

Oh shit it just got me. Linus... You're the one who had that L cdtitle didn't you? I remember playing your files in vgmp3 (since had really difficult, unfair-looking charts haha). Welcome back!! Sorry for not clicking sooner
