I play stepmania to enjoy files but get pissed off when I can't play them

so what are we naming this pack

don't make me add forums to redfraction and make it RFpack 2 because I bought the domain two months ago and haven't touched it yet

don't you make me do it

[blindreper1179]

FUCKING Do IT

[choof]

third time's a charm I guess I say go for it !!

[Rebirth0]

I only did RFpack 2 once I thought. It turned into DCP

It'd be a pain in the ass I think. I'd want to make the main thread there, and we'd all have to register and use that site for the production, etc

I'd do it if we all want to though. Guess I don't care

[cedolad]

JUST PUT SOME FUCKING ARROWS TO MUSIC, PUT IT ALL IN A FUCKING FOLDER, CALL THAT SHIT ARROW PACK 2 OR SOME SHIT AND PUT THAT SHIT ON MEDIAFIRE FOR ALL YOU OTHER FUCK LORDS TO PLAY AND CRITICIZE FOR FUCK SAKES THIS IS AN ARROW SMASHING FORUM AND YOU ALL ACT LIKE 8 YEAR OLD'S PLAYING A PICK UP GAME OF BASKETBALL.


fuck

[Gundam-Dude]

isn't this like the 3rd or 4th time trying to make a rf pack 2 though

take a look at sm scores right now, for the last however long you'll find the following:
5+ people post scores
one person comes in and says "wow everyone's getting good"
that person posts scores
rinse and repeat

you'd get more submissions if you started a dump chancellor's pack

there is some truth to this although the degree of it we probably don't agree

this point notwithstanding, i think plenty of people currently stepping have the ability to make great simfiles, even at this "dark chancellor" level

there is nothing arcane, mystical, or unobtainable about it, as if the ability to make a good simfile vanished a few years ago with the departure of a lot of good old stepartists

Ppp3 drama pack

I'm sure people are capable of making great simfiles, but that's certainly not the case with packs such as yolodumps, yolomania, cringefest, nb5, etc. There's almost no thought put into to files nowadays.

You pour hours into your simfiles, and when was the last time someone posted a score on, or even mentioned T&J? Last 100 Seconds? Either no one cares about interesting files enough to post scores on them, or they don't want to mention playing them because the current stepmania mindset is "nothing but icyworld js packs 24/7"

I guess I did try again in 2011, so this would be the third try. Except the first attempt was renamed DCP so it was kinda successful anyway

BRB ADDING FORUMS TO WEBSITE

[TC_Halogen]

are we allowed to use rolls in our simfiles?

[choof]

no, rolls screw up scores too often and are unfun

[choof]

can't use mines either !!

[cedolad]

may as well take out holds too.

fuck it no arrows either.

[choof]

if your file doesn't contain [12][34][12][34] into a 1234 roll, you're wrong

don't blame other people for Kommi's shitty right arrow roll in the middle of Apocynthion Drive

we're getting a lot better at this btw
you were 100% right for yolo dumps and yolomania 1 and even most of yolomania 2, but I really do think a lot of our newer files are starting to actually get pretty decent, and we do tend to put quite a bit of thought into them now

i guess my main argument here is that while we're far from perfect, we are legitimately trying to get better
