Simfile Revamp

**Rebirth0** · 05-9-2006, 07:28 PM

I said in the KBCIII topic that I was going to make a pack for pad simfiles. No keyboard sims AT ALL. This is that pack.

These packs are meant to be played on a hacked In The Groove machine. That is our main objective, to be able to play pad steps to our favorite songs on SM. These packs are meant for ITG, but you can play them at home.

You can step ANY SONG YOU LIKE. It can be a DDR song, an ITG song, and even a song already stepped and made successful by a popular simfile artist. (Reach, aperson, Exige, Zaghurim, Blurk, ect.) Make pad steps, at least one chart. These pad steps can be as hard as you want them to be, as long as they're not easier than a DDR 7 footer or as long as they're not harder than an ITG 13. Songs should be less than 2:30. We're playing these sims on pad and we can get worn out easily. Don't make it some 6 minute long death run. Maximum song length I'll accept is 3:30 and that's if the song isn't very hard.

You need new graphics for these sims. You can't use old graphics. Say if you're restepping Excel's Theme (Zagh sim), you can't use Zagh's graphics. You have to make new graphics. The graphics have to be good looking too, they're going on ITG machines, you'll want them to look good.

ALL SIMFILES MUST BE UNRELEASED. You can't submit a version 2 or 3 of a simfile. You can't submit a sim if you've already released it anywhere else. The simfiles stay unreleased until a pack/batch is released. You may then do whatever you like with it.

You can do up to 5 stepcharts, and 5 stepcharts is highly recommended. Not everybody is a god at this game, people need easier steps. The minimum is one chart, and if you have one chart, it must be heavy. I recommend that you have at least two charts. Hands and mines may be used. Rolls too if you can do it.

Send all simfiles to me via AIM/MSN. Don't email me the simfiles, I rarely check my emails.

We'll release a batch of simfiles whenever we hit 15 - 25 accepted files. We'll probably release multiple batches.

I posted this in the other thread, but it got lost in the flamewar.

We pick one of the two DDR remake options (a.k.a yours, which was step every damn DDR file out there, or mine, just step the ones people want stepped) and work together on it, and that can have the KBC tag on it. I want to have some role in it (judging, whatnot), I just won't have enough time to run it by myself. Tell me what you think.

**Rebirth0** · 05-9-2006, 08:05 PM

I saw that, we can still do that. MSN me.

Yeah I'll make something. lol

braintrust · 05-9-2006, 08:37 PM

Just a thought, but wouldn't it make since to not allow DDR stuff, since that's already stepped. I could see allowing other bemani, but we already have pad steps for DDR stuff (obviously lol). I mean, whatever you want, but that's just my thought.

BTW, can we use someone else's gfx with permission? For example can I use Zagh's gfx for Excel's Theme if I ask him if I can use them? If not ok, but I know you had mentioned this before.

**Rebirth0** · 05-9-2006, 08:43 PM

I have mentioned that before, but now I'm saying no. You have to have all new graphics.

On the DDR sims, yeah we already have pad steps for DDR songs and even ITG songs. You can restep those, make them better/harder/easier.

ddrdanc3r55 · 05-9-2006, 08:52 PM

Woo, I'll do GFX. I'll probably step some, also.

ddrdanc3r55 · 05-9-2006, 08:53 PM

Also, you wouldn't go to ask Zagh for permission to use the GFX. You go to the artist who made them(HST).

**Rebirth0** · 05-9-2006, 08:54 PM

You can't use old graphics anyway.

braintrust · 05-9-2006, 09:01 PM

Can we claim songs in this thread, or are they to be kept secret for some odd reason?

**Rebirth0** · 05-9-2006, 09:03 PM

You can claim songs, I don't care.

ducky285 · 05-9-2006, 09:04 PM

I started making pad steps again just recently. Maybe I will contribute.

I was hypothetically speaking, but okay.

braintrust · 05-9-2006, 09:07 PM

Ok, I'm working on Death Moon now (I have Heavy and Oni, b/l/s shouldn't be a problem at all). Tomorrow I'll probably start work on Red Sign and Murmur Twins. I might also cut Vertex Beta and step that. I'm gonna try and pump these out, hopefully at least 2 a week.

**Rebirth0** · 05-9-2006, 09:09 PM

That's good, step as many songs as you want. There's no limit as to how many of your sims are in the packs.

If you're going to cut a song, make sure the cut is good.

**macgravel** · 05-9-2006, 09:23 PM

Oh, I don't get to be a judge?, yet I gave you the power to hax the machine...I see how it is...

dascookieman · 05-9-2006, 09:28 PM

I have an idea for this pack, I will attempt to start stepping it tomorrow. I suck at making files though, but I guess I maybe could make a cool pad sim

DiGiTaLSeraph · 05-9-2006, 09:33 PM

Hilarious that when I came to a few people about this idea a few days ago I was laughed at XD
"LOL omfg gay pad steps who would play that?"

Of course my intent was to make a pack for people to play on the local hacked ITG machine that consisted of pad versions of popular simfiles but w/e! =D

I'll submit what I'm working on when its done. Already got a bunch planned and I've got a lil team of some fairly well known xbox-live ddr edit makers by my side ^_^

braintrust · 05-9-2006, 09:34 PM

Where is this hacked (or soon to be hacked) ITG machine... I might have to go on a road trip this summer if the steps are good enough.

dballin4 · 05-9-2006, 09:50 PM

I'm guessing somewhere in Kansas. I don't know why GP would do this if it wasn't near him. XD
