Re: "Play/Test/Judge my simfile" thread

trumaestro, i've been practicing. i think i've got it down. please try this song out. please download onto stepmania and review it. please try the easier difficulty first because that is the better of the two.

I did the harder one and didn't like it at all.
It's inconsistent both between repeats and within repeats and also steps inaccurately and misses out on interesting sounds.
I'll...look, in place of a critique I'll step it real quickly.
EDIT: Hmm, looks like it's a nonconstant bpm song.

One and a half hours later... (rassle frassle loving gosh darnit nonconstant bpms)

(play the heavy, the charts you made are now offsync beccause I resynced it)

I stopped where I did because, well, you should get the idea from there. This is not necessarily the way TO step it, I'm just showing off some of the patterns and sounds in the song and how I would at least make a start on it.

Re: "Play/Test/Judge my simfile" thread

I was lazy and played on resonance so I won't comment on the sync. (It's easy to check the sync yourself: Play through parts of the song on a low rate and it's obvious if things aren't lining up. If it's not, turn assist tick on.) Listening to the song however, there should have been no stand-alone yellows, but I noticed one or two in the later half.
My main problems with this chart are:
1. It's basically the expert chart from guitar hero 3 only mangled around. This isn't guitar hero, be innovative. Step the drums too, step the vocals too.
2. When you're stepping the guitar with the jumps ala guitar hero 3's expert chart you can't seem to decide how to arrange them. They should all be ABBBB but you change it seemingly randomly; keep it consistent.
Also, no step flow. You use patterns that would lead to cross-overs or double stepped if played on a pad as often as you don't. It's awkward, try not to.


Again, resonance-played.
Difficulty level is extremely disproportionate. If you're going to throw in those huge 32nd bursts, make the rest of the file similarly difficult to match; layer, jumpstream, work in the drums, whatever. Again, this is not guitar hero on expert mode, you do not have to step the lead guitar exactly as it is in the song and do nothing else.

I see, thanks for your opinions. For "Duncan Hills Coffee Jingle", I might used the 32nd noted chart for the Oni/Edit difficulty. Plus, I did notice that the steps during the 16th note parts were kinda awkward to step to, they didn't feel normal as a normal flow would've been. At first, for the heavy mode, I had some part to the drum, the part where it bridges to the solo and the drum kicks in small gallops of 32nd. For Mississippi Queen, I used assist tick, but some parts wern't PERFECTLY on sync, so I messed around and finally got it to. Next time, I might do what you said a step to more than one "Instrument"/part. However, the reason I do the step charts ala Guitar Hero III is the fact that most of the "rock" songs I download, they mostly chart only the guitar parts. Thank you for your opinions and feedback! By the way: Is it okay to upload an OFFICIAL Konami song BUT have a completley original note chart?

Kinda boring.

Yes, it is okay. (make sure it's better than what konami made though )

Could any of you please test this stepchart, I've been making some stepcharts for some time now, but never had anyone really critique me on them. Thanks in advance :3

Anyways, song info: Mercenarios de Lobo, by DZComposer. Heavy only and rated 10 difficulty, and is classical.

Biggest thing I'd say is; whenever it's in a 'fast' part of the song and doing one of those 12312312 patterns, you should swap out as soon as there's something more interesting.

want some feedback, please.

Re: "Play/Test/Judge my simfile" thread

Everyone. I have a new file that i'm pretty sure is really well made. but i don't want to get too cocky, so i need feedback.

Song: "The Nintendo Concerto (Part 1)"
Made For: Keyboard
Difficulty: Heavy

I made this song myself, and i made it so the bpm doesn't change, beacause that pisses me the f*ck off. it stay 150 bpm throughout the song.

This song is a giant medley of different nintendo songs put one after another in transition to make a complete song. i don't think it actually is a concerto, but i have a pension for catchy, memorable titles. This is only the first one, there are two more, i just haven't stepped them yet. Feedback is appreciated, which means: give me feedback, man! Thank You.

Here's the damn link:

EDIT: PLEASE DOWNLOAD IT FOR SM...it's better on there.

hiii i'll test some files.

I don't think this song is constant because rock songs usually aren't :-\. Try stepping stuff that is constant next time. Even though the entire file wasn't technically correct or anything, I found it fun. The minifreezes were a little strange but that's ok.

I enjoyed this. Couple things though; You would use a 16th jack on the percussion noise in the beginning, but in other parts of the file, you used a 16th trill instead. Either way, the jack probably wasn't necessary. The PR was close enough and the file itself felt a little freeform. The 32nd trill wasn't needed either and it kind of breaks the flow you had on the file. Good job though.
