The Overlooked Simfile Thread

super-smashman · 06-23-2005, 08:21 PM

I find that a lot of really great simfiles only get played by a handfull of people. Which is a shame, so in an effort to change this I want people to participate in helping these hidden files get more known.

Here's how this works:

- Someone nominates a simfile. They give the name, the artist and the author (bold the name). The may include what they liked about the file. Put a link to it at the end.

- People download and play the file. If they like it, they come back here and post that they vouch for that sim. Please, don't go crazy and say you love evey sim, be selective and vouch only for the ones that really spark your interest.

- I make a list in this post of all the sims nominated in descending order from most vouches to least. Obviously meaning that more people really love the ones at the top.

Rules:

- Don't nominate your own sims (duh).
- Don't nominate anyone you know's sims. This includes people you know in person or on a chat.
- Don't vouch for you own or your friends' sims.
- The sims have to be from a relatively unknown author. No NVLM, Arch0wl, DukAmok, DTM etc... (not that they aren't awesome).
- Though we'll have no way of knowing, don't ask others to nominate/vouch for your sim.
- Please, if there is something else that would obviously be cheating, don't do it. This is to give unknown simfile authors a chance, not to advertize your sims.

Vouching:

Ok there seems to be some confusion over when you should vouch for a sim. When you vouch for a sim, you are saying that you really liked the simfile. Whether the sim is well made or absolute garbage makes no difference. BE BIASED. You are representing you and only you. If you hate the song then don't vouch. If the steps are Index biased and you play 4 Finger and you don't like them (but you still think that the file is well made) don't vouch for it. Files that you vouch for are the ones that you enjoy playing and would put them in your Awesome sims folder if you had one.

NOMINATED SIMFILES:

Carezza - Kil - 3 vouches.
AIRWAVE-08 - HST - 3 vouches.
ErAseRmoToR maXimUM - Tear - 1 vouch.
Vook - KwithH - 1 vouches.
Lonely - eVILPeeR - 1 vouch.
Yoshi's Battle - abntq - 0 vouches.
Minenko Rock - Sword - 0 vouches.
PANANOiA EViL -52 DECLiNE- - ddrtime - 0 vouches.
Healing Vision (Angelic Mix) - Varia - 0 vouches.
Mindblowin' - djSmalls - 0 vouches.

This yoshi simfile is one that I found randomly through my searching and its by far one of my faves: fast, fun, and an overall awesome song. So I nominating this one for sure.

The song, W_I_N_N_E_R, doesn't make anything an instant 10. I don't think you even played the steps, because they were extremely horrible. You aren't skilled enough in knowledge terms for SM/DWI steps to make a judgement about files. I would rate the steps a 4. Steps were offbeat and bad.

AIRWAVE-08
//DJ Sharpnel

by HST

There is one part that the arrows didn't exactly go with the song. I mean it went with the song, but since you used double taps for a certain a lot of the song I didn't want to see it be bad. It was around the middle, yet it was only for a measure. If you play the file you can not notice it at all though. You have to be listening to the music and watching the arrows. It comes by so fast. Anyway if you pass it up, no matter after that, great file. 9/10.

Not sure how underrated Spazzbite is, but he makes fun simfiles.
http://www.bemanistyle.com/sims/author.php?id=1135

There's all of his. He uses jacks and jumps quite a bit, but oh well, I like them and they seem to fit.

Arrows match the song VERY well, notewise and synchwise.

**Snapps** · 06-24-2005, 01:33 PM

Carezza
//Osamu Kubota

by Kil

The 64th notes don't go to the song, yet it adds a bit of fun to the file. Overall great file for 4 finger and 1 handed players. Much, much better than Skors in my opinion.

ErAseRmoToR maXimUM
ARTIST: L.E.D.-G VS GUHROOVY
Stepfile by: Tear

http://www.bemanistyle.com/sims/simfile.php?id=13136

I like this file because it's hard but not complete BS. I think BMR made a sim of the same song but it was sped up by him. (not sure...) The steps are on sync and the graphics are pretty good too.

Snapps> I think I fixed those arrows now, was it the doubletaps in the slowdown?

super-smashman · 06-24-2005, 02:15 PM

Don't forget. You have to vouch for simfiles too. There's no point in a list with 100 nominations and 90% have 0 vouches.

Benny1 · 06-24-2005, 02:18 PM

I vouch for Kil's carezza.
And snapps, every note is synced in general, because carezza DOES swing a little bit, maybe not quite a 64th, but it does swing.

xObserveRx's Piano Concerto no. 9:

I'll vouch for Erasormotor and Carezza

super-smashman · 06-24-2005, 03:05 PM

Sword is the only person who is unknown.

**Tank101** · 06-24-2005, 03:15 PM

I vouch for Piano Concerto No. 9.

Also, don't everyone nominate any of my files all at once

super-smashman · 06-24-2005, 03:33 PM

You're too well known aswell.

**Tank101** · 06-24-2005, 03:36 PM

Yeah, but some of my files are overlooked.

Like DukAmok, he's a very popular simfile artist, but he has many files that no one plays, even though they're great.

**Starshot** · 06-24-2005, 03:37 PM

eVILPeeR's Lonely:
http://s39.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=0...42K4Z6B7EJJ3FM

An excellent and fun file by a person who's files are less-known.

Bahamut-X · 06-24-2005, 04:58 PM

I definitely vouch for observer's Piano Concerto 9. That is the best sim you could make out of that song.

super-smashman · 06-24-2005, 05:17 PM

Ok let me make this very clear.

Its not the simfiles that are over looked, its the author. If Reach made a sim and accidentally released it when he didn't want to, that is not an overlooked file. Same goes for this. If you are known that means people do play your sims. You don't need this kind of exposure.

Also, read what I added to the first post.

People who vouched after the last time I updated please resubmit your vouch if you still think it follows the vouching rules.

**PsYcHoZeRoSk8eR** · 06-24-2005, 10:38 PM

I'll vouch for airwave and vook

airwave, i don't remember too much but i played it twice so i liked it enough for a second go.

vook, had to play four finger but it was fun practice since im just learning that style

**PsYcHoZeRoSk8eR** · 06-24-2005, 10:45 PM

ok, sorry for doublepost, but i just found where this sim is hosted. some of you might have heard it on the ffr radio and i just absolutely (sp) love this song.
