Re: Ok guys let's resurrect Stepmania
I wanna send some hitters in, but I have an issue with my sm files getting corrupted every time I zip them. Not sure what's going on, but I'll try and send some anyway.

Re: Ok guys let's resurrect Stepmania
this^
honestly i don't care if this pack had 30 or 50 songs.. what i care about is when i play through it i find something fun about every single file. i don't want "filler" files that aren't really that fun or don't hold anything to them that make them unique. sure, there's been packs that were large that happened to be REALLY good too (ie odi1-3, keyboard megapack 1.5, xoon 5). i was pretty surprised to even reach 30, then 40, and now 48; a pack is only as good as its submissions.. i even feel weird when i just "place" my own files in the pack when usually the person that makes the file is their own worst critic xd |

Re: Ok guys let's resurrect Stepmania
I have some sort of fastidiousness so I tend to finalize things with 5 or 0 as their end number. No real meaning to those.
Also, thankfully intensez is sorting out all the low quality songs, so I believe the pack will never really be low of a quality. Last edited by Yume_Kuro; 07-18-2015 at 09:11 PM.. |

Re: Ok guys let's resurrect Stepmania
Still rushing to make files is clearly not a good thing tho
let's take our time to make worthwhile sims as the stepmania community is coming to an end.................. (said the guy who submitted luna clock)

Re: Ok guys let's resurrect Stepmania
This pack will be solid. I'm so glad I was part of it. :3 please, guys, when you play my songs, I'd love to hear your feedback. I have never stepped seriously for sm before, so this is a real first for me.

Re: Ok guys let's resurrect Stepmania
Resteps are cool if there's a clear purpose in your project rather than just "making a file out of that song because it sounds cool" ; like making a sim particularly better than the original one, feeling like the music wasn't exploited to its full potential in the old-but-famed sim it originated from etc.
As long as you feel that your finished file will have a merit of its own, resteps are good

Re: Ok guys let's resurrect Stepmania
Sent my last file
It's a rework of a chart I originally made for osu!mania which can be previewed here: Last edited by rCaliberGX; 07-19-2015 at 11:48 AM.. |

Re: Ok guys let's resurrect Stepmania
plenty of submissions surprisingly even near the end ill be sure to get them reviewed by tonight/tomorrow and give a FINAL file list since i don't plan on accepting any more submissions after that batch. unless it's for fixed .sms, patched files, changed gfx, etc etc no more!

Re: Ok guys let's resurrect Stepmania
It seems everyone is sending what's lying around and expecting it to get in
I want things with effort... Like no offense but I hated playing 10+ files and I knew for a fact half of them were made years and years ago. Next pack I organize I'll just go ahead and say unreleased only to force effort xd |

Re: Ok guys let's resurrect Stepmania
The flames do seem to work well with the theme of the song, so I'm not opposed to this gfx at all. However, the dimensions of the bg seems a bit elongated - you should truncate the sides. Typical resolution is anything like 320x240, 640x480, anything of those multiples, etc.

Re: Ok guys let's resurrect Stepmania
It's still a pretty standard format, and iirc that's the resolution SM goes by? As long as SM doesn't grossly distort the image as a result of trying to fit the bg in, then I'm fine.

Re: Ok guys let's resurrect Stepmania
You can change how the bg fits in the newer versions of SM5, so it's not a big deal; there are options to fit it however you want (fit to screen, scale image, cutting the borders horizontally or vertically, etc). However, the new themes coming out for it use a default 16:9 format so some people (like me) like to make 16:9 gfx for files nowadays.

Re: Ok guys let's resurrect Stepmania
Ok yeah, I didn't know that before - thanks! I'm still a bum and use 3.9 as I'm not too crazy about SM lately.
