stop being lazy and go through the permissions thread

[kommisar[os]]

sry xander my judgment no longer matters. whatever you send to the next batch will have different people playing it.

[cedolad]

I did today. Nothing interesting anymore :<

I should go permission hunting I guess.

I'm not trying to sound impatient in any way--it's been a while since I've actually tried making sims for FFR, as well as even looked at this thread. When is the next batch scheduled to close? Now that I'm pretty much done with school, I can focus on making some new charts.

What? Where?

if X is two 16ths and x is an 8th then the melody goes something like
xx.....Xxx.x.xxx
xx.....xxx.xxxxx
BUT the way you do it right now is fine since it's consistent and meaningful

Again, I'm totally lost by what you mean.

when you place an xxx.x pattern (ie a triplet followed by a single note) it should actually be xx.xx (i.e. two gallops)

Meh, I do. I use that same pattern earlier. I'm almost positive that's there.

???

how can I make this clearer? lol

June 7th. It was even on this page. XD

Oops!

I was being rushed to leave from where I was at the time. Thanks for two things--the date, and not calling me an idiot for not reading the thread.

I hope to have three files sent in (including the one that I finished already) before the batch closes, so two more. We'll see how it goes.

Idiot...

Just kidding LOL. Couldn't resist.

[Xandertrax]

You should really be talking, strawbarry.

Edit: Stepmania math dilemma!

I have a measure. I need to fit 14 notes into the measure, no more, no less, all equally spaced apart. How?

Although this is true, as long as what said actually makes it a better file (or, at least, you believe it does) then elaboration will still help him.

And:

bluguerrilla (10:51:09 AM): and for the math problem thing, are you only stepping that one sound?
Xandertrax (10:51:25 AM): yeah
Xandertrax (10:51:27 AM): it's a piano run
Xandertrax (10:51:31 AM): but it's a 14th
bluguerrilla (10:51:49 AM): because if so you can do an x/y = a/b to change the bpm to be something that will make it the right number of hits per measure
Xandertrax (10:51:59 AM): oh hm
Xandertrax (10:51:59 AM): ok
bluguerrilla (10:52:04 AM): so like 120/(new bpm) = 14/8
Xandertrax (10:52:17 AM): ok
bluguerrilla (10:52:17 AM): at least i think that should work


Has anyone tried this before? I sure haven't. '/16' would work better I guess? I'm looking at you, dore.

Edit: Yeah, then you just need a bpm change to get the down back on red. We think.

[who_cares973]

Oh hey look at that fancy thing called ddream.

[bluguerrilla]

Yeah but that's so inelegant lol. And I think it turns out it should be BPM_old/BPM_new = 16/14 with an addition bpm change between the 2nd to last note and the last note to get it back on red.

[who_cares973]

Or a simple shift+scroll in ddream

[bluguerrilla]

Multiplication is scary.

The thing is, this is exact and doesn't rely on whether or not you can see the peaks.

[dore]

I just woke up so there's a good chance I'm completely wrong you would multiply the original bpm by 14/16, use 16ths, and then multiply the new bpm by 3 for the last 16th note to get back on red and then go back to normal.

edit: just checked it on SM and yeah that should work. It starts/ends at the right time and has 14 notes, at least.

Get with the times old man

Hey tass, is anything going to happen with that new artist batch we came up with a while back?

[who_cares973]

i dont think anything actually got started but we should actually do it

[bluguerrilla]

Well I don't think it needs to be a separate batch. Just step a new artist and submit it.

ohno you can see a song i'm stepping in my lfm
