          is the no release rule strictly StepMania files, or can I port something from FFR to StepMania?

            Got 8 more submissions to look through before I'm done reviews. Should be able to squeeze out a massive post tonight.

              If it isn't released anywhere for Stepmania download, then yes you can submit it.

                Re: Dark Chancellor Pack 2 (ITS HAPPENING.GIF) Submissions Open

                I won't be going through section-by-section because I simply don't have the time. These are just general comments from playing through the files a couple times each. And for the record, I don't actually know who stepped which file because I'm playing this via the editor and not paying attention to the folder contents so I guess bonus anonymity to you submitters.


                Akubyou Taisan
                · Don't quite get why you layered the beginning holds on [4] when there are 16ths that should be layered instead.
                · Not really digging how the layering progresses so slowly as you have a really under-layered single note beginning jumping right into 16th jumpstream. The overall transition doesn't work well and the difficult jump is huge when the song doesn't really change much at all.
                · Honestly, the mini-holds that go to the vocals in the entire file don't even need to be there. They aren't really significant enough to warrant the extra accentuation.
                · The 32nd are quite inaudible in a few sections when you play through the file and they aren't consistently layered enough.
                · The mega [4] jack is debatable. I don't think percussive progression like this warrants a long ass jack out of no where other than to turn this into a semi-scoring file.
                · The section with the clock tick and vocals would work better if the notes weren't only on [4]. The syllables are obviously different so why not vary up the patterns?
                · Few too many layering inconsistencies to warrant a pass.
                No

                Amatias
                · I suggest toning down the amount of mini-hold usage a tad bit. It's a tad bit overused to the point where from an playing standpoint they serve no purpose other than making an aesthetically denser and messier file in my opinion.
                · Felt that a lot of piano chords could've been layered as hands as opposed to jumps. It's prominent enough to warrant the usage personally.
                · Double check the 12th guitar solo part for accuracy. I heard some grace notes that could've been layered in and the section overall seems a bit too simplified.
                · Normally I'm perfectly fine with layering piano rolls as holds but in the case with this song choice, I would tell you to go for it and layer the damn thing as 24ths/32nds or w/e. You've already got a lot of holds going to the guitar exclusively so why mix-up the piano rolls with them when you can layer it?
                · The ending sections would work better if it were more densely layered to signify the end climax.
                · Overall, good file albeit repetitive. Look into whatever I mentioned and I think this is good to go.
                Maybe

                Battle of BRS
                · Percussive+guitar rift layering is really inconsistent. There are essentially missing jump placements spread throughout the entire chart.
                · The guitar solo is inaccurately layered with quite a few missing notes.
                · Most of the holds can be trimmed in length to avoid awkward pattern transitioning and for a cleaner aesthetic.
                · The hand usage overall is extremely conservative, when the much more intense sounding sections in the song could use them for better impact.
                · Overall, the song doesn't offer that much interesting variety to work with, which kills any sort of chart for this.
                No

                Bodom Beach Terror
                · The guitar solos are most definitely inaccurately layered, but I can understand not wanting to make it a complete skittles bag. This should definitely be looked into though.
                · I felt that hand usage was also very conservative because there are just so many prominent guitar+percussive hits that just smack you right in the face and would feel good if it was more densely layered. Just my opinion though.
                · Hand usages for the vocal parts I'm alright with, although I'd most definitely prefer them to be used throughout the file rather than almost exclusively these sections.
                · The 24th one handed trill stuff is rage bait and a huge difficulty spike, although the jump-jacks you used only somewhat counterbalance this. I'd just change the pattern overall to at the very least a two-handed trill so people don't just bullshit mash that part.
                Maybe

                Catastophie
                · Doubling the BPM would've been a better choice given the song choice.
                · The grace notes to the piano sections seem inaccurately layered.
                · Some sections with the strings or what not could've been represented better with some jump usage to signify the instrumental addition to the guitar and snare in my opinion.
                · That one section where you used single mines didn't exactly make sense because the usage was inconsistent to the section that came before it. Either layer both sections with the mines or don't use mines at all.
                · Overall, this one is the better of the two submissions, although I don't think this warrants a pass with how the file currently stands.
                No

                Cruise Beast
                · Doesn't offer anything other than the difficulty and scoring factors.
                · Well layered, but otherwise not something the pack is looking for.
                No

                Funny Shuffle (Revision)
                · The only thing I would suggest is the section where you got those 192nd/green/white jumps I feel is better represented as hands.
                · Tricky to MA because of the poly-rhythms and jack patterns but offers some scoring factor to it otherwise.
                · No complaints. Well layered and I found it to be fun.
                Yes

                Fuse Gymnast
                · Not reviewing because this doesn't fit the criteria of being an unreleased file (RE: Untitled StepMania Pack).

                I'm Your Daddy (Revision)
                · I would suggest shortening the longer lengthed holds by a tad bit overall. It'd probably work out better anyways since you've got mines dangerously close to some of them and this chart isn't solely relying on the dodgeball factor. The mini-holds are all fine on their own.
                · Other than that, no complaints. Rigid file and pretty decent for scoring.
                Yes

                Insane Techniques
                · There were a few sections I would've personally layered slightly more heavily with hands.
                · Mine usage was a tad over the top but it's acceptable by my standards.
                · I felt that the mini-holds going to the lead synth/melody weren't entirely needed because it's so prominent. It only makes the chart an aesthetically denser and messier file in my opinion.
                · Nice file to contrast AlexDest's chart for the same song and definitely can be tricky to MA in sections with the heavy jack usage. No complaints from me otherwise.
                Yes

                Kaerimichi
                · If you're going to layer this as jumpstream, you could at the very least layer the 16ths you intentionally ignored at the beginning of the file. It would be a much better transition in density and difficulty.
                · I don't like how you intentionally left the parts with the synth underlayered when the rest of the file is dense with jumpstream. The contrast could be nice for other songs but doesn't quite work well here in my opinion.
                · The 48th flams are slight difficulty spikes and feel a little over-layered, even if the patterning is simple staircases. I think simplifying it down to maybe just 2~3 notes would work better than 4 and still represent them well enough.
                · Cutting the cymbal crash mini-holds by half the length would actually be very beneficial when you've got dense 16th jumpstream going on throughout the file.
                · Few too many layering inconsistencies to warrant a pass.
                No

                Marill (Gender is not a Binary)
                · If this file is SM5 only, the chart screws up about halfway through around where the stop placement begins.
                · It was a good solid chart up until it screwed up. Look into fixing this bug for it to play properly on 3.9 and 3.95.
                N/A

                Kirlian Shores
                · In the intense sections of the song, it'd be beneficial to layer in the percussive jumps rather than leaving the majority of it single notes.
                · I feel hand usage in the file would also be beneficial for further supporting the climactic parts of the song and even simple cymbal crashes, even if it's overall a seemingly mellow.
                · No real complaints otherwise. Because of the length of the song, I'd suggest reworking the intense sections of the song to be more densely layered and I think this would be good to go.
                Maybe

                Like a G666
                · Doesn't offer anything other than the difficulty and scoring factors.
                · Well layered, but otherwise not something the pack is looking for.
                No

                Magic
                Hard:
                · The majority of the 8th jumps in the beginning of the chart aren't necessary and don't really serve a significant purpose. I'd suggest removing them and keeping them as single notes and let the jumps focus on the percussion.
                · Keeping the 24ths in for an easier difficulty is questionable—I'd simplify them down to 16ths.
                · Decent for an easier chart.

                Expert:
                · The majority of the 8th jumps in the beginning of the chart aren't necessary and don't really serve a significant purpose. I'd suggest removing them and keeping them as single notes and let the jumps focus on the percussion.
                · The 24ths that come right after the [3]+[4] long holds are inaudible. Simplifying those to 16ths would be better so it doesn't feel like you're adding those in for no apparent reason.
                · The wubs should really be thoroughly layered with holds—you layer some but not all of them.
                · There are several sections where I feel it's a tad too under-layered, mostly due to the fact that there are essentially no hands in the file. If you add that extra layering element to the chart, this chart would be much better given the song choice alone.
                · Despite having good song choice to appeal to me personally, the file was underwhelming sadly and I feel it needs a rehaul overall but it definitely has potential. I might even choose to restep this song myself if I miraculously have time to do it.
                No

                Minute A Fond La Caisse
                · Mine usage is rather overused although I can understand the sections where the chart practically turns into dodgeball. I think toning the mines overall would be beneficial to the chart.
                · Well layered with nothing major to note. The song itself doesn't offer anything interesting to work with though and being a fairly long chart, I don't think this captivates the player demographic enough to sit through the entire thing. For that reason I'm rather indecisive about this one.
                Maybe

                My Time
                · Thorough hand usage to layer other elements in the song and to support the intense parts of the song would be beneficial for the chart. I really don't think the fact that the first 3-note hand didn't actually appear until halfway through the chart when there were a billion opportunities to be using them that were ignored completely.
                · The accordion can be accentuated with holds—it's a prominent enough instrument to warrant the support.
                · The massive section where it's all 4th hands, there are countless grace notes that can be layered and hitting them as 4ths just doesn't cut it.
                · Additionally for the hand section, this is a rare case in which I would recommend going all out with mini-hold usage because you've got like three different sounds to work with (vocals + xylophone (?) + tinkling, etc.) on top of the hands and grace notes. It would be a nice way to make this entire section much more interesting than it current is, which is uneventful and rather boring.
                · Once the big 16th jumpstream kicks in, the 32nds are practically inaudible when playing and you completely ignored the trills which would've been a better choice to layer. It'd also keep your overall layering consistent since you've been layering those trills in the sections beforehand. You don't necessarily have to keep them as trill patterns too, broken up rolls would suffice given the jumpstream here.
                · Measure 105, the second set of 5-note trills are actually 6 notes long.
                · Overall, it was a decent chart given the song choice. There are still countless things I feel need to be fix and improved before I think this is good to go.
                Maybe

                Old Obscurity
                · Rainbow jacks are tricky to MA but they're acceptable as is.
                · Song doesn't offer much to work with to begin with and it's repetitive so I respect the decision of varying some patterns up and progressively layering more.
                · Well layered with nothing major worth noting. I'm a little torn with my decision on this file because it's so repetitive and doesn't offer anything interesting to captivate the player demographic—the file in itself is good, I just don't see many people touching this one in general. I'm willing to pass this simply because it's short enough, but I guess let's see what other judges think.
                Yes

                Pepper Steak
                · Once the song picks up and you start using hands for the percussion and mines here and there, I feel this section would be better if you layer in the 16ths you intentionally ignored. The progression in layering would be a much better transition in my opinion.
                · Well layered with nothing major worth noting. Song's super repetitive and I think that's what really kills the chart overall because you layered everything it had to offer essentially. Again, another case where I don't think this captivates the player demographic well enough so I'm indecisive about this one.
                Maybe

                Proof of the Existence
                · File's late and offsync by about 0.8—most likely a global offset issue.
                · The very first hold which falls on [1], I would just layer the strings as a whole rather than simplifying it like this. I only say this because this hold in itself isn't resonating well with the longer [3] hold just below it in my opinion.
                · Right above measure 17, the [13] 16th jump should be a 4th note above it. Technical error etc.
                · I have no idea what the 4th [34] and 16th [14] go to but if they go to the bass+snare then it should fall on the 8th and 4th note around the 16th [14]. Technical error etc.
                · Measures 18 through 22 would transition better into the massive 16th jumpstream starting at Measure 24 if you layer in the 16th triplets throughout. I find the layering transition as is awkward and seemingly random when it can be a much smoother one if you layer the triplets thoroughly.
                · The massive [3] jack before measure 34 is a big "fuck you" to everyone's face. Probably just making it a 16th trill pattern would be ideal otherwise if you're set with using jacks, break them into alternating mini-jack patterns like [23][3]-[14][1]-[3][3], etc.
                · Consider shortening the length of the holds that go to the flute or w/e by about half the current length. This would make a huge difference once that huge 16th jumpstream-jumptrill section comes in. Measure 74 in particular is quite the messy one because of the note density and adding the holds on top just makes it worse.
                · Considering that you haven't stepped a 4key file in quite some time, the chart is decent for what the song offers, although the whole giga jumpstream at the end was a bit unexpected, lol. I'd look into some tweaks to the above to make the file a bit less messy.
                Maybe

                Rydeen
                · lmfao this song.
                · Good as an old-school themed file. Song doesn't offer much to work with and you layered essentially all that you could.
                · The file and song in itself doesn't offer anything that'd captivate the player demographic but I'm leaning towards a no simply because of the pack's apparently high standards. I'll probably end up throwing this file in a pack later if you're cool with that (if this doesn't make the accepted queue).

                      · Don't quite get why you layered the beginning holds on [4] when there are 16ths that should be layered instead.
                      The whole intro/outro follows the drum/vocal. I was afraid the whole chart would go bland if I follow that beat but Ill try it.

                      · Not really digging how the layering progresses so slowly as you have a really under-layered single note beginning jumping right into 16th jumpstream. The overall transition doesn't work well and the difficult jump is huge when the song doesn't really change much at all.
                      didnt want to do a typical jump layer thus that [4] sounds like a hold. Your right though, if Im doing it like that, I should maintain it throughout the whole chart. But Ill change these to jumps so it evens out in difficulty with the JS and maybe the difficulty will match the penis jacks.

                      · Honestly, the mini-holds that go to the vocals in the entire file don't even need to be there. They aren't really significant enough to warrant the extra accentuation.
                      Two strikes, will take these out.

                      · The 32nd are quite inaudible in a few sections when you play through the file and they aren't consistently layered enough.
                      The song itself provides inconstant 32nds, I can take it all out.

                      · The mega [4] jack is debatable. I don't think percussive progression like this warrants a long ass jack out of no where other than to turn this into a semi-scoring file.
                      Here again, the song throws jacks out of nowhere. I will make two/three charts for this. The easier one/two will have these as bombs.

                      Magic
                      Hard:
                      · The majority of the 8th jumps in the beginning of the chart aren't necessary
                      Will take out.

                      · Keeping the 24ths in for an easier difficulty is questionable—I'd simplify them down to 16ths.
                      Thats an option. Though in that case, Id make another chart where jumps are absolutely not connected to 16th notes.

                      Expert:
                      · The 24ths that come right after the [3]+[4] long holds are inaudible. Simplifying those to 16ths would be better so it doesn't feel like you're adding those in for no apparent reason.
                      The second 24ths in the beginning right? I felt the same. Will do that.

                      · The wubs should really be thoroughly layered with holds—you layer some but not all of them.
                      yea I gatta take a closer look. I know I took out some just because they fall right into another note(hand). I personally dont favor these.

                      · There are several sections where I feel it's a tad too under-layered, mostly due to the fact that there are essentially no hands in the file. If you add that extra layering element to the chart, this chart would be much better given the song choice alone.
                      · Despite having good song choice to appeal to me personally, the file was underwhelming sadly and I feel it needs a rehaul overall but it definitely has potential.
                      Yes, this was a easier/difficult chart. I was planning to submit a hard/difficult chart to Dubstepmania2 or vice versa. (Yesterday Rebirth says released files will be strictly judged and I looked at the thread just now and Rebirth is saying no released. Pls write this in OP its unclear. )

                      I might even choose to restep this song myself if I miraculously have time to do it.

                          · In the intense sections of the song, it'd be beneficial to layer in the percussive jumps rather than leaving the majority of it single notes.
                          · I feel hand usage in the file would also be beneficial for further supporting the climactic parts of the song and even simple cymbal crashes, even if it's overall a seemingly mellow.
                          · No real complaints otherwise. Because of the length of the song, I'd suggest reworking the intense sections of the song to be more densely layered and I think this would be good to go.
                          Maybe

                          Minute A Fond La Caisse
                          · Mine usage is rather overused although I can understand the sections where the chart practically turns into dodgeball. I think toning the mines overall would be beneficial to the chart.
                          · Well layered with nothing major to note. The song itself doesn't offer anything interesting to work with though and being a fairly long chart, I don't think this captivates the player demographic enough to sit through the entire thing. For that reason I'm rather indecisive about this one.
                          Maybe

                          Pepper Steak
                          · Once the song picks up and you start using hands for the percussion and mines here and there, I feel this section would be better if you layer in the 16ths you intentionally ignored. The progression in layering would be a much better transition in my opinion.
                          · Well layered with nothing major worth noting. Song's super repetitive and I think that's what really kills the chart overall because you layered everything it had to offer essentially. Again, another case where I don't think this captivates the player demographic well enough so I'm indecisive about this one.
                          Maybe

                          The Divine Comedy Reverse (Revision)
                          · I'd definitely look into simplifying the 32nd jacks in general because it's pretty damn fast to hit.
                          · File's well layered. There are a few tiny nitpicks for some layering decisions but I'm willing to pass this off as is.
                          Yes
                          @Kirlian Shores: the main reason why it felt much simpler in the layering part was essentially it was going to be a 3-person collab between wafles (who released his chart in yolo2), caliber (which I don't know where his chart went whoops) and mine being the easiest of the three for choof's Kirlian Selections pack. I'll fix up the chart and beef up the difficulty a bit.

                          @Minuit: I'll tone the mines down.

                          @Pepper Steak: This is like the 5th revamp I had done with file lmfao. I guess if it doesn't go through I might as well just make a single release out of it :/

                          @Divine Comedy Reverse: I'll tone down the jacks. Maybe making them into graces or mini roll freeze would suffice?

                                - Hold usage, that right arrow jack for no real reason, unspectacular stepchart. Even most of the minijacks aren't really warrented. It's possible with the song, to make a decently fun chart out of this, but this chart isn't it. Rejected

                                I'm Your Daddy v2
                                - I'd still think its better to have nothing at all in that first dialogue part but whatever. No big deal if they're mines.
                                - After seeing the fixes, I don't have any real qualms about this file. I might like to see a bit more difficulty in the file (readding some hands), perhaps in a second difficulty, where the file just progressively gets more difficult all the way through, but this is fine for now. Sure

                                Insane Techniques
                                - I don't like the lack of variety in the notes from m38 to m41. I also think that random note part in m8 isn't absolutely perfect. Look into that and see if you can sync it even better.
                                - There are some things I don't like about the layering in some intense parts of the song (m18 to m33)
                                - I think you should step the part at m41 that has only mines. It would feel great to play if the right notes are there.
                                - This song is great and the chart nearly matches it. I really like this file, but there are some things that need touching up on. I kinda feel like doing these fixes myself if you would let me. You don't need a collaborative distinction on it (Scylaax+Rebirth), I just want to help you out. But feel free to try and fix things yourself first. Accepted pending fixes

                                Marill
                                - I think the file messes up for me after m54. You might need to remove those rolls and resubmit
                                - I don't see anything wrong with the file, but the song is quite boring and that makes the file playthrough not as satisfying. Either way, for now at least, it is accepted pending roll fixes

                                Kirlian Shores
                                - I actually feel like the pink notes should be green, slightly before the 24th, like you do in m15
                                - Consider some more layering. Adding hands in some parts. The lack of extra layering makes the file not as interesting for me. Most of the weird offbeat notes are accurate based on what I can see.
                                - Maybe if some fixes are done.

                                Magic
                                Expert:
                                - Most of the jacks that last one full beat aren't necessary. The only places where it is accurate is at m35 beat 2 and m51 beat 2
                                - Add jump to every red note after m58, don't leave out some. (same issue with the hard chart, but it makes more sense to do it on that chart)
                                - I also think you should make this a bit more difficult since you have two charts. Make this one harder to place with more layering and fixed jacks. It sounds like the minijacks are alright but the longer ones aren't except in those two spots.

                                Hard:
                                - I understand it is a watered down version, but I think you would be alright adding a bit of light jumpstream in some of the streams. Not the longer streams, but some of the parts that have 5 or 7 16ths in a row, you can have red notes be jumps and the file would look better.
                                - Other than that I see nothing that would make me reject this chart.

                                In contrast to what GD said about the blue jumps after m6, I would make every blue note a jump from m6 to m10, at least for the expert chart.

                                Pending fixes, likely accepted

                                Minuit A Fond La Caisse
                                - I just don't think any chart to this song would be considered good and/or replayable. I want files with replay value in here, sorry. Rejected

                                My Time
                                - See Minuit A Fond La Caisse. The song gets a bit more interesting half way through, and actually turns into something good at the end, but it isn't nearly enough to redeem itself overall. Shame, the part from m73 to m90 is great.
                                Rejected

                                Old Obscurity
                                - Same issues as the previous two files I played with lack of a real song, but this chart is very good and pretty accurate. It's hard to say a definite no on this. The short length helps it a bit. I'll see what the other judges have to say before really deciding.

                                Pepper Steak
                                - Another issue with a boring song resulting in nearly zero replayability. 4 songs in a row that I've played like this...
                                - This chart is accurate also though, but this has a lot more length than Old Obscurity has, so I'm going to have to reject this.

                                Proof of the Existence
                                - I also get an offset issue, but that is no big deal. (I'd fix it for the pack release)
                                - You miss some jumps during m26 to m34, mostly blue ones.
                                - The chart isn't too bad, really. GD mostly pointed out the issues. Would consider accepting

                                The Divine Comedy Reverse
                                - 32nd jacks what is this
                                - This also has rolls in it, which I would prefer not to have in the pack as many people still play SM3.9
                                - The chart otherwise is alright. A common thing I'm finding in a lot of files is the need for more layering, which I see should be done in a lot of this file.

                                Pending other judges comments. This is probably your best submission so far, with Kirlian Shores being a close second.

                                - This is one of those dump/jumpstream files that I usually rejected in the past, but I'm trying to have more of an open mind towards them now. I'm trying to overlook some issues and just accept it as a difficult file that people like nowadays.
                                - I understand what you're doing and why the intensity is where its at. I'm thinking about accepting it because it pretty much makes sense, but it would still be subject to quality cuts later on (as is every file) Acep I think pending other judges remarks
