Stepping Stones of StepMania 3 [CLOSED]

Krazy, if you update the main post with links to the songs I can do some graphics so you don't have to do them all.

Sent a new file along with my final version of Butterfly Joe!

[Kraezymann]

Butterfly Joe FINAL PROBBALY - Awesome, that light chart is a lot of fun. I think the flow in the hard chart is much better now.

A Baptist Church... - Good stuff. For a minute I thought that the hard chart was ALMOST a little too similar, but after a few more playthroughs I think it's just fine.

Thanks for the offer duder! I'll probably post some links after I get a few more files.

Sent something...maybe more to come.

[MooMoo_Cowfreak]

I knew A Baptist Church in Georgia would have the perfect difficulty for this pack, and the song itself is just so lovely. Glad you liked it!

[Kraezymann]

Silhoette of the Mind - Arguably one of my least favourite IIDX songs ever hahahahahahaWHHHHYYYYY... like I actually forgot it existed lol

The charts were pretty fun though, especially the Hard chart. A tad easy, but that is totally okay. And don't worry about the gfx, we'll make some pretty ones

SIGH

Turn Down For What - I was also not expecting a halfway decent metal cover of a... trap song? If that's what the original is? A few things:

- Thanks for 2 charts! Sync is okay but you're using a .vbr mp3 so I'll probably change that at some point. Damn shame about the ending. If I can find another version that ends better I might use it and resync it, if you are okay with that?
- The speed up at the end of the song with all the mines does not belong there. There isn't any indication of a speed up, and 2000+ BPM is enough to make anyone just play on a CMod anyways. I'd recommend getting rid of it and making that section flow with the rest of the file. The mines everywhere else aren't really an issue, so no need to worry about those.
- At M70 you have a bunch of jumps on Hard and hands on Challenge that are all over the place and don't go to anything. Jacks there would be a TON better and make more sense with what you hear in the song. Fix those up and we should be good.

Needs some work

Goddamn FFR signing me out when I finish typing a post

How do you feel about Xmod files being in the pack?

[Kraezymann]

I don't mind them as long as they aren't Groundhog v2. Keep in mind this pack is meant for novices. Why I said what I did in my review for TDFW was because it just didn't fit with the song when all of his other bpm changes flowed much better. It was just out of place.

I'm considering an xmod file of my own that I'll probably have to get looked at for accuracy, but it's quite simple and should only take one or two playthroughs to have down pat.

Submitted something else!

[DDRNGGin]

I may or may not submit something else for SSS3. Currently working on a couple of packs of my own, and one of them being a community based pack.

[Kraezymann]

Survivor - A song I can play through without grimacing I liked pretty much everything. The Hard chart was quite fun, I especially liked the little freeze/jump thing at about M30. However, I think there are a couple 32nds you could add in the beginning at approximately 45.5, 53.5 and MAYBE 61.5. I also think you might be able to get away with a freeze at 78, and I'd rather see a minijack at 87.5. Those are my only qualms though. The spike towards the end is a LITTLE out of place but I think the changes I mentioned might make it a tiny bit less so. I am okay with accepting it as is but you would be my BFF if you thought think those fixes are worth it and send it in again.

Also I can't believe you put together a video and lyrics. Kudos!

I am okay with this

Also DDRNGGin, I'll see if I can't bang off a file for you sometime soon. I assume I have a fair bit of time yet?

[DDRNGGin]

If it is regarding Rhythm Universe, you have until Friday, July 29 for the submissions (about 4 and a half months), so there is plenty of time for anyone interested in stepping some files for Rhythm Universe.

Are your notes referring to beats, measures, or seconds?

[Kraezymann]

Beats, sorry.

Beats 45.5, 53.5, 61.5 are fine, as the music doesn't play out any 32nds here. It's interesting to note that inconsistency...the 32nds are only at the last part of the song.

Not sure why there'd be a freeze at beat 78.

16th drums entering the next section at beat 87.5 yeah I guess it can be a minijack, but then so can beat 263.50 near the end of the song. Doesn't seem urgent so I'll leave it as is.

I have something I could add some difficulties to for this I think you'd like that's unreleased

The 32nds I hear are much quieter yes, but you have one at 68.875 to what sounds like the exact same thing, which is why I mentioned them. I mean you can leave them as 16ths but if you do then maybe you could add one 16th at 53.75. 45.75 and 61.75 have them, and it's more noticeable than the 32nds for sure.

I mentioned a freeze at 78 because there is a very subtle synth effect in the background that is kind of reminiscent of a drum and bass track effect that sometimes occurs during song transitions or where there isn't a consistent beat yet. It starts on that [14] jump and it lasts until the 8th [24].

Either way, we're talking literally only 3 or 4 notes, so it's not a big deal. Just trying to explain myself better

The End of the Journey - Awesome. Irish touhou music might be my favourite touhou music now

[macgravel]

The file I was working on ended up being really boring so I'll have to find something else to send.

[DigitalS3r4ph]

Finally finished a file and sent it in.

EDIT: Kraezymann, the offset for my chart has been updated to -0.48 just FYI. I'm also throwing in a couple of 16ths here and there to help with the flow and will send that in soon, but the file is good to judge.
