ITT: Solo packs

**Xiaounlimited** · 07-7-2009, 10:46 PM

A hub for solo packs for those of you interested in starting to play Solo, those of you who already play and want more files, or those of you step and want your files to be exposed.

Solo player list/achievements thread

Stargroup's solo guide for awesome 6-panel sexiness!!

Summary: Clannad ED. Very easy file.
Xiao's rating: 4/7

(Oubliette) Burning Heat! (Full Option Mix)
Summary: I think it's a conversion of iamme's file.
Xiao's rating: 3/7

(DGK) Nekomimi Mayohiga Sumai
Summary: MUCH harder version than Ghakimx's. Layered much more severely.

(Classic Rocker) Pink
Summary: HNNNNNNNNNNNNGHHHHHHHHHH
Xiao's rating: 6/7
Beginner-friendly?: no

(Halogen) Explosive
Summary: DAMN SON that was really fun. Heavy is oni underlayered. Oni is layered properly, but it's nothing excessive. Only critique would be that some parts are too excessive on one hand, and the 32nd brackets.
Xiao's rating: 5/7
Beginner-friendly?: no
For solords?: no

Xiao's rating: 5/7
Beginner-friendly?: no
For solords?: no

(Fysx) Bitter Chocolate Striker
Summary: 1/8 triplet (1/12s) chordstreaming. This plays a lot like The Deep Striker (since it's also obviously by Denjin K). I don't really like it at all but it's been getting praise so you might.
Xiao's rating: 3/7
Beginner-friendly?: no
For solords?: no

(Fysx) Intergalactic (Planetary)

Xiao's rating: 5/7
Beginner-friendly?: no

(Oubliette) Time Circuits
Summary: Slow, easy file. AAA bait, though a bit too long for its own good.
Xiao's rating: 4/7
Beginner-friendly?: yes
For solords?: no

--- EVERYTHING BELOW THIS LINE ISN'T RATED

(Oubliette) 2 Hookers and an Eightball (Full)
Xiao's summary: MSI song. Conversion of DTM's chart.
Beginner-friendly?: no
For solords?: no

(Ghakimx) Up in the air
Xiao's summary: Not as difficult as Ame ni uta re, fubuki ki sabu. Relatively easy file with simple rhythms. I would say it's beginner-friendly.
Beginner-friendly?: yes
For solords?: no

(Ghakimx) Ame ni uta re, fubuki ki sabu
Xiao's summary: Quite repetitive once again. Some measures are a bit questionable (i.e. using nothing but 2345 making it basically a singles file), but it's a technically alright file. Hearing the chorus like 50 times kind of grated on me. Basic 1/16 streaming with some chords in it. Nothing nasty.
Beginner-friendly?: no
For solords?: no

(Ghakimx) Nekomimi Mayohiga Sumai
Xiao's summary: found it hard to MA though since you used straight 1/8 stream instead of 1/16 gallops (or 1/8 triplets, I honestly couldn't tell while playing). The song had so much going on that could've made a really fun oni chart. Having measures with nothing but 1/4 notes also made the chart feel really empty; it was kind of boring considering the upbeat style of the song but I suppose that makes it very beginner friendly.
Beginner-friendly?: yes
For solords?: no

(Cherubi & Kommisar) Around the World
Xiao's summary: Difficult chordstreaming file. Oni is worthless. Heavy is fun, albeit hard.
Beginner-friendly?: no
For solords?: no

(Fysx) End of the Moonlight
Xiao's summary: Plays a lot like the oni charts in XSBP1. Very fun, not too difficult.
Beginner-friendly?: no
For solords?: no

(Fysx) Udon Kotarou
Xiao's summary: ...
Beginner-friendly?: no
For solords?: no

(Debit) DJ Otada
Xiao's summary: Somewhat streamy file. Oni is basically heavy+; random chord bursts make oni feel inconsistent. Chimera's more fun IMO.
Beginner-friendly?: no
For solords?: no

(Debit) Chimera
Xiao's summary: A bit left hand biased with some slightly strenuous ring trilling/ringjacking but fun file overall. Minor holdstreaming practise.
Beginner-friendly?: no
For solords?: no

(Patashu) Chaotic WHITE
Xiao's summary: Intermediate heavy chart; basic chord stream. A rather fun file. Oni is the same thing but overlayered as **** with some retarded patterns and heavy jacking.
Beginner-friendly?:no
For solords?: yes (oni)

(who_cares973) Eight Empty Beds
Xiao's summary: Made for beginners to practise chords on. Not the easiest file but still beginner friendly considering the scope of harder files. Quad bait, I have 3p and I can't MA for ****.
Beginner-friendly?: yes
For solords?: no

(Patashu) The Legend of MAX
Xiao's summary: This file is ****
People-friendly? no(Patashu) Bomb This Track
Xiao's summary: It's MSI. Plays like any other MSI file. I don't need to say anything else. Song sucks.
Beginner-friendly?: no
For solords?: no

(who_cares973) Cette Année
Xiao's summary: Who_care's first solo chart. Patterns are nothing complex, but the song itself is relatively vanilla and the chart itself tends to follow that trend. Very repetitive with simple note patterns but there's a feeling of inconsistency in the file - especially when a 32nd trill burst and 24th stream come on-screen - that leaves the entire chart feeling a little less than memorable. Not a terrible chart but probably won't play it again.
Beginner-friendly?: no
For solords?: no

(Patashu) Cradle
Xiao's summary: Oni is a ****ing dump. Heavy/standard are okay, but nothing remarkably fun. Rhythms in all charts are pretty straightforward.
Beginner-friendly?: no
For solords?: oni

(Patashu) Don't Say Anything
Xiao's summary: Oni is :ver jacks: with heavy layering, heavy is still relatively jacky for a solo file, standard plays much like a hard chart from a XSBP. Oni is still kind of fun though, heavy is kind of a boring inbetween, and I can see standard being a decent chart for newer players to practise on.
Beginner-friendly?: yes (standard)
For solords?: no

("Dimentio") Foughten Field
Xiao's summary: Very fun file; a marathon, but still very fun nonetheless. Repeating patterns make it easy to pick up after a sightread and while the song isn't for beginners, it's still uses relatively easy patterns for the most part and makes a good intermediate file.
Beginner-friendly?: no
For solords?: no

ODI2 Solo Conversions.
Good thread though, finally have a place to link people just getting into solo !_!

who_cares973 · 07-7-2009, 11:06 PM

sweet

i'll download these when im on vista

**Xiaounlimited** · 07-7-2009, 11:07 PM

Added, thanks for reminding

[TeRa] · 07-7-2009, 11:21 PM

The Milky Blue file has a .rar of itself inside the file, so it takes up twice da space, though it's not really worth the effort of reuploading the whole folder just for that, unless you wanna remove the Xiao pack files from it.

Edit: ODI2 with the .sm's added to the files already, much more convenient 8)

who_cares973 · 07-7-2009, 11:32 PM

what's the difficulty range for these files ?_?

[TeRa] · 07-7-2009, 11:41 PM

There's a small collection of files for new solo players outside of Xiao's packs, so definitely download those. I mean there's like 350 files here, so I can't really give you a good difficulty range lol.

Thanks for the upload, bro. I was lazy as **** to locate and copy over the files and replace the sm files, lmao.

icontrolyourworld · 07-8-2009, 10:28 AM

nice thread

**Patashu** · 07-8-2009, 10:34 AM

yo xiao why don't you make this the 'post your solo files' thread to encourage **** to actually be done with the promise of it being available in a central hub and for feedback and later compiled into further packs thx

Oubliette · 07-8-2009, 10:36 AM

Awesome, downloading some packs now.

Ice wolf · 07-8-2009, 12:03 PM

Wooo Downloading ODI2 and 62 solo files (which I hope are good considering that the 92 and 98 don't have very fun files.

)

**Xiaounlimited** · 07-8-2009, 12:20 PM

Aite this is now the hub for solo files go

Xiao packs and BCMPs have the funnest files, download those.
At least that's my view opinion hehe

**Xiaounlimited** · 07-8-2009, 03:49 PM

My files (for the most part) are fully charted, so they're best for beginners. The ones that aren't fully charted are only intermediate in difficulty, so they're good practise once you get past that stage. My hardest chart is Piano x Forte x Scandal, which isn't all that hard anyway.

The 98/92/62 are mid to high tier files with some solord files scattered throughout, while the BCMPs are mostly upper/solord tier files.

I'll probably finish a XSBP3 before the end of August - assuming I'm not completely bogged down by osu!, Oblivion, Fallout 3, IaMP and BlazBlue...

**Gundam-Dude** · 07-8-2009, 04:22 PM

hey I might step something for XSBP3 if you allow submissions

**Xiaounlimited** · 07-8-2009, 04:30 PM

yer gonna have to use some :solo theory:

**Ghakimx** · 07-8-2009, 04:45 PM

XBSP is really good, since it has a good difficulty curve for the songs.

I'll try some of the other packs later.

**Xiaounlimited** · 07-8-2009, 05:07 PM

I need a songlist before I can start stepping for a third XSBP. Feel free to recommend songs to step - specifically, ones that sound like they can be broken down into differently layered charts. Wap songs preferred, generic techno is a plus.

**Ghakimx** · 07-9-2009, 04:24 AM

I'd recommend No Eyes and Anything Cannot be Done by RoughSketch. They're quite hardcore, and they include a piano piece, which is nice.

I have the mp3 for No Eyes, but sadly, not the other song.
