Negative BPM's

bob bob · 10-21-2010, 01:34 PM

Negative BPM's Can have pretty cool effects when used in sm, but I am unsure if negative BPM's work on FFR.

Anyone know if they do?

I wouldn't see why not. Don't you have a standalone you can test it on?

**Zageron** · 10-21-2010, 01:49 PM

Last I heard it did not. The FFR engine is based of of a "C300" system, and each file is rendered that way.

I don't think it would be able to go backwards...

I'm pretty sure that negative bpms will not work with FFR.

They don't

Negatives have no effect on FFR, and if I remember correctly, they simply get ignored (i.e. BPMs act as if they were positive).

What aj said

Chidori negative bpm skip measures in a file pretty much

I wouldn't see the point in putting them in a file you plan to send here anyways, since FFR plays virtually off of Cmods.

Yeah I don't see why it would matter though, since FFR's engine can handle running it as a Cmod without screwing up.

Negative bpms and stops only exist as an artifact of how stepmania is coded
FFR, not being designed to replicate these artifacts, will not handle them
