Stepmania 4.0 SVN (Beta)

[Oni-Paranoia]

why is there a dancer.. i still dont get it and also it says controller (wtf). NO one plays SM on pad that. >.> All there themes are crap, im jus gonna make another better build off of it. im also gonna download this and see if i can make a better build now.
They also should have a keyboard instead of a dance pad and a stupid chick wit a cool shirt.

EDIT: This build is the worst thing that has ever happened in the SM world, posting SS in a bit.
This is complete sh!t and oh yea, kb7 = orbular, wtf?

EDIT2: Life difficulty 3 is default

StepMania 4.0 SVN In-Depth

Ok so im slowly taking a better look at this and its clearly the worst thing that has happened to mankind.

yes, this is Default


"Sunshine on a cloudy day"


Before song play


After song play, nice gigantic combo that even shows up bigger when you hit a step






Ok next pic has many things im so damn wtf about









Arrows = 864 but Combo = 924
....
Rolls add to combo like PIU holds
Also wtf is my grade.. a SS star??
hmm.. nice random bar on the right side
wtf is the WWWW: 82% crap

Oh hey that was a AAA apparentely (with 1 great)


From left to right (top)
Steps, Mines, Holds
(Bottom)
Jumps, Hands, Rolls
Also, the noteskin sucks ass as well, a blend between MGD and iGroove or w.e from like the other country

EDIT2: Just realized the step note thingy on the left is wrong. Compare SS's.


More SS's possibly soon unless i feel like im done disgracing this crap they call SM

EDIT:Quote from Sigma (ITG player who knos like everything)

Jumps count as one step, 2 step on combo

[who_cares973]

oh, well then

[TC_Halogen]

For a person who makes pad files (talking to the OP), I'm quite disappointed that you would advertise this--SM 4.0 hasn't been anything note-worthy. The only thing that would EVER turn me to going to an SM beyond 3.95 is when they implement split charts (that is, each CHART within a song can have a different BPM or stops). Otherwise, there really isn't ANY point to 4.0.

"PIU uses a modified 4.0, so it's better than ITG 3.95 base."

If you say this, the inner Puerto-Rican will come out of me, armed with a shank and I will use it to slap you with it--then have someone else do the honors of the shank.

With that being said, just stick to 3.95. 4.0 has nothing worth even looking at.

Oh, and speaking of PIU, SS is a grade in PIU: Pro. This is a poor emulation of that. Disrespect to the grading system because of where it is.

Honestly, I can go on about this all day about how much better 3.95 is better than 4.0. Those who are having problems with 3.95 and think 4.0 is better need a different computer, and need to learn how to fix their theme.

I'm done. No more making threads about new SM versions because no one really needs to see them anymore.

i used to use SM 4.0. but every since i found out how bad it is, i went back to SM 3.9.

ummmmmm......tats dose not look like a default theme for SVN. i would probably get it and use optical. this looks like crap. so just stick with the optical theme for SVN or get CVS.

[supersonicpwns]

also, SVN is going to be so much better than CVS. so 3.95 is going to be gone into abyss. is tat good?

life 3 is the default wtf.

[KandleXTC]

The new default theme is to "welcome" new stepmania players. Theres a reason why shakesoda made the optical theme. lawl. the default theme is nowhere near complete. not even 50% done.

Yes. 3.95 was only for use for online play. even tho it's complete garbage in anything else (lawl). though i dont know why people use an unofficial build that the stepmania team didn't even bother with it. They didn't even build 3.95.

because 3.95 is better than 4.0

[KandleXTC]

lmao wtf? how is 3.95 better? considering the fact that it's a 4 year old build, and it uses a garbage theming system. 4.0 IS STILL IN BETA! 4.0 isnt even officially released yet.

I dare you to say that in the Stepmania forums.

[SkySeal]

i dare you to say what you said in any forum that doesn't have idiots
its a lot more stable
it (theoretically) should run faster
what garbage theming system?
yes 4.0 is still in beta so its should be probable that it is worse than 3.95

[KandleXTC]

hm.. People in the SM forums are idiots?
Uhm... The people who made stepmania are idiots?
I see.

[KandleXTC]

Doublepost: SM3.95 uses .xml theming system
while 4.0 uses LUA. with .XML. It has limits on what you can do to make a theme.
.LUA has alot more freedom to build themes

[KandleXTC]

Update: A new SVN build is being compiled at this moment. Expecting a release in maybe a week or so, With shakesodas updated optical v2 theme. (((DEFAULT THEME MAY STILL BE BROKEN.. SO DON'T USE IT)))

[Ice wolf]

I downloaded the SVN and played Zephon. I could not FC it. I then played it on 3.95 and AAAd it. Be sure to make the judges and combo much less distracting along with changing the noteskin to something that does not blend in with any background. (How about making a noteskin that is not flashing rainbow colors for once. I just want a plain red, blue, yellow, etc. one-frame noteskin.)

Obviously, there is work that still needs to be done, but these need to be priorities.
