Anyone have any recommendations for good metal ddr pads? How are those tournament or ion pads?

I'm socal and all I see available are those tournament pads and no cobalt pads which sucks

GJTao controllers. I hear they aren't great. Can someone give me specific reasons/examples to confirm this?

Build one yourself if you want to make something extremely cheap and shitty, but for SDVX I would actually recommend buying a proper controller simply because dealing with knobs on your microcontroller and stopping them from skipping/spinning freely/not being properly debounced/spinning too fast for your shit arduino is a pain in the ass.

>>14935830
nah man, GJ-Tao controllers are the best.

>>14935838

>>14935721
anything from DDRgame is shit, I think Precision is the only company that still makes good home pads, and for the price of a Precision pad you may as well just spend a little bit more on a cab.

What are the recommended PMS events to download?

>>14936475
Almost same as yours, but left thumb is on 1.

>>14936475
the superior playstyle

>>14936475
No matter how you position this is looks silly and I feel like just listing fingers per button would get the idea across a lot better

>>14937168
You can move the arms by double clicking at them, but agreed, this is stupid.

>>14936475

This thing is a pain in the ass to use, but I play standard.

Really nothing special, except I have a bad habit of completely ignoring the left hand's button presses during scratch heavy portions.

>>14935830
I got my hands on one.

Yeah it's bad.

I was dicking around and realized that this is actually possible.

Can someone try this out and see if it's viable?

>>14937624

>>14937655
No, that's this.

I have to try all these positions next time I get my controller out.

>>14934255
I don't get it

>>14936475

>>14937595
this is generally how I play too, the only problem is I always angle my right wrist awkwardly for some reason and it starts to hurt a lot after playing for hours

>>14938181
Try standing a little bit more to the right/left of your controller and play normally.

>>14938137
>431 on keys 123

This is interesting - can you consistently hit scratch with that?

Speaking of scratch, is it bad that I often tend to scratch with my 4th finger because it feels stronger?

nothing special I guess

>>14938210
Not him, but I do the same with that hand, and yes, i can do scratches consistently.

I play the game the way it was meant to be played

>>14938210
somewhat confident about hitting scratch, but scratch + 1 + 2 or 3 generally gives me a hard time.
I should also note that I'm playing on a KOC so the spacing isn't accurate to the picture, and the turntable is rather stiff making scratching more difficult for me.

>spend more on a cab

I'm assuming you're talking about itg cabs? How do those work and where could I find one for $600 or less in social

do dao fp7s come with a usb cord to plug into a PC? or will i have to get a ps2-usb adapter?

>>14938809
You probably can't find a dedicab for $600 but I'm pretty sure you could definitely find a regular DDR cab for that price and then upgrade it to ITG/Stepmania.

>>14939143
All of his recent devices are USB only

>>14939404
He could get a stage and use an IPac/JPac to connect it to a PC

>>14936475

90% of the time I use the top style. When a chord involving 1+2 comes up I hit both of them with my extended index finger.

I'm currently trying to fold in the use of the second one though, as it can handle density much better, but can't really scratch for shit.

So I'm stuck in this hellish limbo of being either unable to handle density or scratching. And 1048 absolutely does not work for men, the thumb index finger for 1 and 3 is just so awkward and kludgy as fuck.

>>14939501
Not true, all of his IIDX controllers and the Pop'n controller have a PS2 cable and two USB cables.

>>14939501
I got a FP7 3 weeks ago and it still came with a PS2 cable.

ban all anime avatars

>>14939619
Have you considered playing "standard" and using fingers 321 on keys 123 on your second style?

Your second style looks like it'd work fine if you had large enough hands to handle the scratch distance.

Osu and Stepmania player here
Why do you guys hate osu so much? Also what do you think of Stepmania?

>>14940044
>Why do you guys hate osu so much?
because its garbage, and not fun
>Also what do you think of Stepmania?
fun garbage

>>14940044
they're both shit because they're not bemani games xd

>>14940044
>why do you guys hate osu
game isn't that great, scoring system is garbage, terribly inconsistent timing/size/approach rate on even ranked maps, quality of maps in general, trash community, etc.
>stepmania
Stepmania + an actual pad is perfectly fine.
Stepmania + keyboard is trash and you should just play BMS at this point.

>>14940019

I tried everything with my left hand. Doing what you said has my middle finger so bent I end up hitting the key with my knuckle instead of my finger. Gives me very little precision.

>>14940086
It works for me, but probably only because I keep my hands rather high and drooped down above the playing surface so I hit 1 with the tip of my middle finger.

Please don't give hand positioning advice unless you're 皆伝 thanks.

>>14937671
>>14937655

I honestly just pull this maneuver for that damn song.

>>14940211
In Sows I only visit the rhythm game/DIY controller threads ever, so it's not a huge issue for me.

But fair enough. The other points about Osu!'s shit gameplay are still valid.

>>14940837
Make sure every other program is turned off. Check your toolbar to see if something is running in the background, utorrent and whatpulse do this.

How the fuck can so many of my rivals, which seem of comparable skill on most tracks, can pass Bass Drop Freaks on Another? Am I the only one to think it's one of the hardest Pendual 10s? I can't read it for shit, the patterns make no sense at all and are so dense

I found a project diva controller for $2 but it's missing 1 spring. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement?

I'm having problems where my FP7 fires twice whenever I scratch while playing AC data. Anyone else have this problem? Turntable works fine on LR2 and PS2.

>>14941649
Make sure to not set the turntable as a key binding, but in the analog section instead.

>>14941649
I had this issue until I replaced the pcb. never found any sort of actual solution though.

>>14942047
you don't

>>14940903
>Am I the only one to think it's one of the hardest Pendual 10s?
I keep hearing this from bad people, but I never really understood. I actually find it nice and spaced out for 10 (mostly 8ths, occasionally single note streams of 16ths). Easy to FC with only a couple silly parts with funny rhythms. I can't really think of anything about it that stands out as a candidate for being tricky for less skilled players.

>>14942047

DP is basically a whole new game and you'll get just as much out of it as you did with SP

Also it's way more fun than SP once you get into the higher level charts

Hey guys, so I'm running Sound Voltex II on my PC and have an e-amusement card from when I went over to Japan. I'm running ealocalserver, is there any way I could have this server reading my card so my scores are saved?

I see the P1 Card Reader configuration in bemanitools for SDVX but am not particularly sure on how to go about using it.

>>14944011
DDR2014
Please don't hit me!

>>14944591
ealocalserver can't save scores play KShoot instead.

>>14944591
ealocalserver is just for network check, so you can get past the boot check. It's not a functional eAmuse server. You'll want to run psun.

>>14944619

I have KShoot too for SDVX 1 charts but prefer the look and feel of the actual game right now.

>>14944649

Wasn't that service shut down? I've not been following the bemani scene for a while, just started getting back into it last month when I ordered a controller.

>>14944660
Sorry. It's dead. Play K-Shoot.

>>14944591
>>14944649
Additionally, your scores on your actual card are completely unrelated to scores on real eamuse, so there's no reason to use your card.

If you're in sows you'll have to ask about psun, but not here.

So I have some optiplexes lying around, what do I need to make it into a good bemanipc

>>14947838
Ah sorry for the misunderstanding. when I said the phrase "play Bemani" I was referring
to playing games in the Bemani video game series which a rhythm game series created by the Japanese (a country in Asia) game developers Konami(known for games like metal gear solid and other popular video game classics) and other Japanese rhythm games(such as taiko no tatsujin which is a game made by Sega (Sega is another Japanese video game entertainment creator they are known for games such as the iconic sonic the hedgehog video game series)). Also sorry for being unclear about girls playing
Bemani and by extension pop'n (short for pop'n music a game in the Bemani series). What I
meant by this statement is that I find it somewhat rare to see girls play Japanese
rhythm games in my local community. There are some but I would say it is only around 20% and I see them around far less than their male counterparts. I hope this posts clears up any
misconceptions that my previous post may have left you with.

>>14947970

>There is no game called "bemani".

Last time I play popn I could clear easy-mid 47s.

It's been years since I've played one. I wonder if I could bounce back to where I was.

>>14950299
It might take you a little while to derust, but you could probably get back into pretty easily.

How would you rank all of the Bemani games in order of soul crushing difficulty?

I've not had any experience with Drum Mania, Guitar Freaks, Reflec Beat, Sound Voltex, Jubeat, or really Pop'n to form a valid opinion.

If I had to guess though, it'd be something like this:

IIDX > DM > GF > Pop'n > DDR > Voltex > RB > JB > KBM > Dance Maniax > PPP

>>14951183
I'd say Jubeat is one of the lowest in Bemani. It has a hard mode but that's for those who EXC everything already.

People say Voltex is easier than IIDX.

Pop'n is fun until you get to 46 and above. The walls are steep like the 10/11/12 wall in IIDX.

IIDX DP > pop'n >= IIDX SP > *

>>14951183
Difficulty falls apart when you consider all the games where a beatmap is literally impossible to clear the first time through.

Control complexity has a limit. Some of the games that are popular with casuals are literally just memorisation, because it's otherwise impossible to react in time.

>>14951400
IIDX is widely considered the hardest music game, and yet people sightread AAA some of the hardest songs.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WylcLECrL9E

Games like SDVX and jubeat have an element of memotrash at the upper levels, but memorization requirement is generally not a factor when people discuss difficulty, and these games are generally considered to be on the easier side.

>beatmap

>>14951400
>beatmap
prepare to get bullied nerd

>>14951443
I've heard DOLCE designed that chart, which makes it less of a sightread, even if it was his first actual play. Also, DOLCE isn't real. His power exceeds all theoretical human limits.

re: overall difficulty: pop'n has silent, and silent is fucked up. As someone who's fairly proficient in IIDX (all songs cleared) and OK at pop'n (all 49s in SP cleared minus rinascita and scale out) I'd say pop'n ends up being the hardest. No idea how GFDM or DDR compare at the top end, though.

>>14951276
From my experience

IIDX>SDVX>Jubeat

>>14951552
pretty sure Drummania gets really easy as you get used to the layout.

Alright /jp/, question time. What rhythm games do you play the most? What would you consider yourself active in right now?

>>14952223
>O2Jam
>SDVX
>osu!mania
>BMS [Keyboard]

Id play IIDX but i dont like playing on KOC. Need a dao already

>>14952223
Mostly pop'n. I'm up to high 30/low 40s.

>>14952223
IIDX up to 11s (FP7)
SDVX up to 14s (No controller yet, playing it with mice and keyboard)
DDR up to 16s (Only when i get to go to the arcade, i don't own a pad)
PIU up to 17s (Once again, only at arcades)

>>14951400
>beatmap

sightread ability has nothing to do with how easy a game is though.

Jubeat can have stupid chords that are impossible to sightread the first time around, but it's far easier than other Bemani games,

On the other hand IIDX is easier to sightread than SDVX, but definitely harder in my experience.

>>14952223
IIDX at the moment, because my cheapshit SDVX controller I built shit itself about a year ago.

>>14952223
>IIDX Empress CS
>osu! (standard and mania)
>DJ Max Portable 2
Haven't played much Empress because the turntable on my KOC is dumb and stiff and I can't fix it because the screw is stuck. With my birthday soon there's a slim chance I might purchase a FPS to play on, but I'm not counting on it.
I play osu mostly because I'm already on my computer, and usually play DJ Max during my downtime. Haven't played LR2 because I can't be arsed to deal with the install procedure.

>>14952223
Actively playing IIDX and Pop'n, casually playing DDR Extreme to get my timing/stamina back after years of slacking. Currently trying to learn how to play doubles on IIDX, but it's impossible.

>>14952223
i'm playing pop'n and keyboard (spread) stepmania mostly as i have the most fun with them, i play ITG at the arcade once every 2 weeks so i wouldn't really consider myself to be active on it. i'll probably end up playing more ITG/DDR once I get enough money to either buy my own cab or some good metal pads.

i started playing IIDX recently after quitting it out of disliking the game, but i had fun playing it over the last couple of days, who knows maybe it'll become my favorite rhythm game!

>>14952223
pop'n at arcades, sometimes when i'm bored i'll play a little LR2, osu! (standard/mania) or stepmania
currently getting stuff to build a pop'n ASC so going to be playing more of that soon without having to leave the house

>>14952223
Keyboard BMS.
I'm trying to learn IIDX at the local arcade, but I'm still at 6s.

>>14952546
I was at 6's recently

my main issues was just learning to react to proper note combinations fast enough without thinking too hard about it and knowing how to shift your hands to deal with scratches intuitively so if you get that down expect to pass 7's soon

this is also the part where I slowly began lowering my green number from like 400 down to 300 and focusing on accuracy

>>14952223
IIDX up to mid tier 11's but that's taking a backseat till I save up enough to order a RES/RED. My FP7 is from 2009 and it shows.

SDVX I can do some 15's but nothing too crazy. Taking a small break at the moment. SVSE5 is holding up nicely.

I'm also playing another rhythm game that if mentioned will cause a shitfest from people who only play bemani, but I'm making decent progress nonetheless. Generally enjoying myself till I get the dosh for an RED.

>>14952223

I'd say I'm pretty evenly active on ITG clearing 13s ITG/Custom songs difficulty rankings (not sure what that would really equate to on the newer DDR cabs) and IIDX.clearing most 9s and a few 10s.

>>14952519
yo anon what buttons are you using for your pop'n controller.

I wanted to use arcade spec buttons until I saw the price of sanwas. They're just fucking ridiculous.

>>14952223
Currently playing Xonic/PDf2nd on Vita and Pop'n/IIDX when on my computer.

I'll play SDVX once I build a controller, I've just been playing the rest of them on my keyboard and it works okay. I've got Pop'n parts coming in the mail so I'll probably just be doing that for a while.

>>14952223
Jubeat plus / Reflec beat plus
IIDX up to high 12s on keyboard (9th dan on AC)

>>14952223
Really just 2dix, but I'm even struggling to stick with that
Shmups and Factorio have taken my focus for now

>>14952783
didnt worry about specifics so i just got a set of 100mm multicolored buttons off of aliexpress, probably will replace the switches if they end up being shitty (i have a feeling they almost definitely will be)

>>14952977
something like
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/1/32470858137.html ?

Also yeah, I ordered Sanwa springs and omrons because that will probably be miserable

>>14952977
the switches are always miserable they're probably the QMSRON switches with like 1000g of force

Although for pop'n it might be okay

>>14952223

Just IIDX
how can you play more than one and expect to git gud?
unless you spend all your waking hours just playing various rhythm games

>>14953142
I wouldn't be surprised if some of the people around here do.

>>14953142
I have set days where i play certain rhythm games.

>>14953142
I used to play pop'n when I got stuck at IIDX.

Now it's Jubeat and IIDX for me if we're talking about AC. There were days when I spent an entire afternoon at an arcade.

>>14952223

I only really play SDVX (still shit though can only pass the easy 15s) but I did recently order my FB9 so I'll have Jubeat to play for an easier game I guess.

>>14947970
>such as taiko no tatsujin which is a game made by Sega

Not to interrupt a good bout of autism with another but the game series you refer to as "taiko no tatsujin" is actually made by Namco thank you very much

It's not wrong, but if you don't do it properly you might miss key 1, i've been doing it since i started playing and i now can do it without missing it, but i used to miss it all the time.

I don't really care about all the gay eAmuse features and shit, I just want to be able to play.

Because autists hide it all behind locked doors. I really appreciate having literally no info out there because some children throw their toys out of the pram and demand that it all stays private.

I can understand not talking about where to get AC data, although it's hilariously easy for anyone with half a brain to piece together the correct search terms, but when you're holding a monopoly on all discussion and support, it becomes a joke.

>>14956453
I couldn't give a shit if all it takes is to draw a fucking pig, I'm not joining a private autism tracker.

>>14956560
That's your own issue then.

A ban on AC data extends to a ban on tech support for pirated AC data.

We'll help you with controllers. We'll help you with gitting gud.

Discussions and tech support for pirated AC data belongs on sows. And if you don't care enough to get into literally the easiest autism tracker on the internet then you shouldn't be playing anyway.

Fuck off.

>>14956560

>>14956386
There's literally a thread where you ask for one and you get one.

At all, or just to the server? So there wouldn't even be local saving of scores?

>>14956658

There's literally not. I searched the whole forums for "pcbid", and there's only one active thread wherein the guy handing them out said he was out.

Couple more things and I'll shut up about it.

Do you need a PCBID for each game you play, like one for IIDX, one for Pop'n, etc? I saw people saying they need one for a specific game.

And are these IDs locked to the hardware in your computer, so you can't change anything without getting a new one?

>>14956940
Thank you for playing

>>14957009
You can use one for all of them, but you must never use the same one on more than one game at the same time, it will get the PCBID blocked.

took me about 9 months or so but I had a pretty huge break thanks to forearm tendonitis from unrelated causes

>>14957635

I cleared elisha :^)

>>14957635
I'm not at 10s yet but I've begun clearing very select 9's, which is about 7 months since I started playing

>>14958256
So you can do 8s?

I'm looking for a portrait view monitor for SDVX, any advice? Recommendations perhaps?

>>14959519
>buy standard monitor
>rotate it thanks to the standardised VESA mounts on basically any screen made in the past decade
Whoa, that was difficult. You might want an IPS for better viewing angles.

BASS BASS IN YO FACE

>>14956135
It's a Namco game, and it runs on Namco hardware, and it uses Banapass for online stuff on the newer mixes.

>>14959519

I just bought a Dell E2010H off ebay for 50 bucks for the exact same reason.

Didn't need to have an impressive resolution so 1600x900 was fine and I had a spare vesa desk mount lying around so it was ideal.

Buying new is probably a bad idea as really cheap panels are going to be terrible and their stands probably aren't going to have pivot.

I'd just go used with an emphasis on vesa compatibility.

I also doubt that SDVX timing is tight enough for panel technology to be any sort of factor, so anything would be fine.

>>14952223
Pretty much IIDX almost exclusively at the moment, though I do want to get into SDVX, jubeat, and CHUNITHM.

A little pop'n too, but mostly casually.

>>14959519
If you want AC size, go for a UN32J4000
It's cheaper than the one listed in sows and has pretty much the same or maybe even less lag.

>>14934255
Is there a 14 equivalent of pic related. I'm just picking random 14s and playing coinflip pass/fail. Would be nice to see what are the easier 14s.

>>14960726
you could check the clear rates of the songs
also thanks for the image

>>14936475
This, occasionally I bring my right thumb over for stuff like 1,3 trill.

what is it about bemani that attracts so many furfags and trannies?

is there a touchscreen config for jubeat analyser?

>>14961693
What is it about that fact that makes people rage so hard? Who gives a shit?

>>14962191
You're asking that on the most autistic website on the internet.

Anybody want a sows invite? I know sherl0k and DJ Paranoia from way back.

>>14962191

Good to know I'm not the only one getting unreasonably mad at these god damn games.

So much destroyed property.

because they are cancer to a community

>>14962609
Hardly when we have the likes of Charlie form cali, tapper, bemanigurl and the like. People need to get out to an actual arcade and stop whining about people triggering them on sows.

>>14962657

>furry and tranny apologist

Just kill yourself

>>14962780
WOW about as original as your first post. Look I don't really care what you think about furries and trannies it's just tiresome that some shut-it feels the need to whine about it every thread if it annoys you so much than stop reading the sows forums.

Can we stop arguing about pointless shit and answer the real questions
like >>14962116

>>14962910
Implying furry trannies will answer real questions properly. And normal people are all scared off by furry trannies. So you have it, nobody to help you.

>>14962910
From a quick search on sows it looks like it's potentially possible to play jubeat AC on certain touchscreens (Microsoft Surface?) with certain mods, but you'll probably have to make a new thread and PM some people with your hardware configuration to see if it's at all possible on your setup.

>>14962807

??
i didn't make any first post
I don't read the sows forums at all, but it looks like you do if you care enough to be able to call out specific people by name.

just go play more pop'n you sack of shit

IIDX was a mistake. It's nothing but trash.

>>14964343
Just like Umaru

>>14964343
IIDX is okay. Trash is the guy who made private server and circlejerk club around it, attracting the worst kind of people. Well, the same kind as him anyway so it's understandable. Problem is this cancer is leaking to the public places like here for example.

>>14964321
show me the correct way to play then senpai

>>14964435
But psun was public prior to the cease and desist

>>14964435

not everyone has an arcade to play iidx

>>14964343
fuck off pop'n shitter

>>14964435
You do realize it's Konami's own fault that it's private right?

>>14965537
>it's Konmai's fault only limited people are allowed to play the game privately instead of nobody

>>14964757
Nope. It was invite only.

>>14965558
the forums were public registration and the pcbid request was a google form asking what toppings you like on your hot dog
it was hardly private

>>14965558

>>14965566 is right, I got in psun a few months before I got on sows, I was playing with a leaked Tricoro torrent

>>14965549

If you want a sows invite or pcbid that badly all you have to do is ask anon

>>14965706
I am already in, anon.

How do I make Pop'n quieter without making the keys feel like shit?

I've been experimenting with foam under the plungers, but the stuff I've got is too hard and it's a hassle to cut it thinly enough.

I don't suppose anyone has done a similar mod, and knows a good combination of thickness and density to use?

>>14965537
yeah, it is.
any other game company would have cut off our source already and filed another c&d to our emulated network.

>>14965741
I cover my controller with a robe and a towel and the buttons still feel fine

>>14965741
Can't foam be cut with a hot wire?

>>14956934

So I'm in this thread and I believe there's only one guy handing out PCBIDs.

But he said he has them for Pendual. What the fuck does that mean? I thought they were universal.

Are some for specific games only and others for everything?

And do they seriously want me to be a member for a fucking YEAR before I can get one? What am I supposed to do for 8 damn months, just anally rape myself with a dragon dildo?

I hate sows, I really do.

>>14966479
They're universal.

Get power user and farm ratio until then to prove your worth.

Nobody's going to give PCBIDs out to brand new users with no ratio and either minimal post count or a post count full of shitposting.

Yes, it's annoying, but it's the only way someone else will give you one.

>>14966479
if it's any consolation that guy was a bit of a wanker considering you didn't fit his criteria anyway
you could try pming one of the other people giving out pcbids like hanyuu, skim the thread for those offering

>>14966504

Everyone else in that thread stopped handing out PCBIDs months ago.

Also, I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but I find it hard as fuck to get any sort of upload on that site.

Downloading the featured album nets me may 2-500 MB, downloading all the forever freeleech shit and seeding it forever is damn near next to pointless. And seeding the AC Data, that almost everyone else has, and that are the most seeded things on that site, are almost just as pointless.

Best I can do is seed anything for 36 days and exchange dellar for 10GB credit.

>>14966535
outside of uploading your own shit the best way to get ratio is to either hop on AC data as soon as it releases or seed it during freeleech

>>14966549

Would it raise suspicion if I were to download dozens of AC data torrents during the next freeleech? I could probably download and seed that entire site, and am willing if it means I can get some upload.

>>14966571
nah because it's what most people do anyway
why else would people have jubeat and danevo downloaded

>>14966535
Wait for freelech. It's practically gigs of free ratio if you're seeding AC.

Save the world.

>>14966594

>Save the world

Do people still do this after the first week? It'll take a month to get a gig.

Not worth it in my opinion.

Should this box be checked when setting up an account for LR2?

>>14966757
check the wiki

>>14966790
doesn't mention it, according to gtranslate it says "take over the account" maybe it's for account recovery?

>>14966757
>>14966807
It's to transfer your current LR2 ID over. If you don't have one, don't check it and don't fill out the LR2 ID portion.

>>14966479
They're universal, they don't expect you to wait a year to get them, it just gives you more priority.

If you are active in the site and can prove you can keep your ratio you will also be put on that priority for PCBIDs, i happened to get mine while i was still a regular User with 15 gigs uploaded.

>>14966571
Nah, i downloaded all of the newest AC data on my first freeleech, that's what they're for.

verflucht in gfdm when

is there anyway to deal with the input delay from USKOC on AC Data? or am i stuck with making shitty timing forever?

It's true

>l-lewd

>>14967831
I also play on a USKOC. there really isn't a way around it besides overclocking the USB polling rate, which I don't think is possible on Windows 10. Even then, I don't think the performance boost is that great.

It's a fun little game but I just want to go back to pushing plastic turntables soon enough
Also, why is there so much hinabita in the songlist holy shit

>>14957635
A month

Then again I blasted through 7s and 8s in my first week.

>>14973004
I really like popns gameplay but the songlist is so garbage compared to iidx imo. If im going to play a game that much i should at least enjoy what im listening to

>>14973911

This is what i think but about iidx

In IIDX, does combo affect health recovery/ drain rate when getting misses? I feel like the groove gauge goes up faster when I'm in a high combo, and sometimes my health goes to 0 fucking fast when I fuck up, other times not, and I feel like it may have to do with that. I've tried multiple times reading the specififs of the groove gauge but couldn't find any info, anyone knows?

>>14974475
combo doesn't affect anything

>AA+
>AA-

All of my why. Who asked for this?

>>14974475
you feel that because when your combo is high you're in the groove and maybe 1 miss won't get you down, but if you stumble really bad and miss like 9 notes at once you lose your groove/momentum. thats just my theory anyways.

>>14974781
Nothing wrong with extra inbetween ranks, but 890k is a retarded number pulled out of some executive's ass. Not that arbitrary score thresholds are of any importance.
I honestly don't like what they did with the new difficulty scale. Extra ranks are good and all, but they wasted it on inflating low levels my grandma could breeze through. 15-18 ranks could really use being split into two. 15 especially, there's a huge difference in difficulty between easy garbage like this one and high-end 15s like Legend of MAX or a lot of ITG charts.

>>14974475

Goods and certain poors don't even break combo it doesn't mean shit

>>14974781
They also made Greats and Goods worth more points. You can get 25% more Greats and have the same score on the new scoring system.

But I guess that doesn't matter too much getting any number of Greats automatically means your score is garbage.

>>14975704
>Goods give points now
What a time to be alive

>>14973911
Eh, there are bits of gold here and there, but ever since PON took over as sound director and the great 2hu/vocaloid/hinabita invasion, I can't say I've been a huge fan of the more recent pop'n titles

cum....back......yoshitaka...............

>>14975867
all of yoshitakas songs are the same

>>14975928
don't talk to me or my thread ever again

>>14949379
I wish I knew too, it's been really hard to find 1 and 3 right now. I never managed to find the first Wii game anywhere.

>>14975704
Imagine if IIDX did something like this, completely overhauled the scoring rules and rank labels. How big would the outrage be?
What if goods were worth points?

>>14976279
>What if goods were worth points
How would Ex score be tha; 3 points PGreat, 2 points Great, 1 point Good? Coincidentally that would make the new system harsher.

For example
1600 PGreat
400 Great
5 Good

3600/4010 89.8%
compared to
4605/6015 76.6%

They'd have to overhaul the whole system.

>>14976407
>They'd have to overhaul the whole system.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying. The score numbers would have to change to accomodate 10/5/1 or something.

>>14976407
>5605/6015 93.2%

>>14976448
yeah I just noticed it now, I'm fucking dumb. I'm not sure how I fucked up that bad. Whole post is wrong.

>>14976407

Why not just add a multiplier based on your combo
that would increase the amount of skill involved for sure

so how much PASELI bux do I have to give Konami to put t+pazolite in IIDX

Finding Pop'n quite hard with a gamepad.
Gonna have to tough it out for a while to accustom myself to try do something with my keyboard...
Any tips on playing with a gamepad (specifically a 360 pad in my case)?
Friendly reminder that you don't need to abuse me or recommend that I get Pop'n board thing.

>>14978572
Get a ps3 controller and either use the popn portable layout or the ps2 one.

>>14951443
SDVX looks harder to me.

>>14980093
it's just flashier
keep in mind the timing requirements for SDVX are far more lenient than that of IIDX

>>14980093
>SDVX looks harder to me.
>looks
Exactly.

>>14979913
I'm often top score against my rivals, but they all pass with shittier scores than mine while I can't clear. Is thia a good thing on my overall progression or not, it's easier for me to get A than to clear a song, it's kind of frustrating

>>14980093
at the harder levels it's mostly memorization.

>>14980130
this is fine, the game is about accuracy anyway

clearing is mainly an exercise in knowing the bullshit patterns at the end of each song and general reading ability which are both remediable

>>14942553
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a2nV9B5cpbk
>one handed rolls on both hands
>fun

top level dp is literally just anmitsu to stay alive, although i agree it's still fun even if only on account of how ridiculous it is

>>14980116
>it's just flashier

Still looks harder. Like, IIDX songs to me are not that hard at this point, it's just following the patterns, now I didn't played SDVX yet but I simply can't imagine the coordination of the hands to play the hardest songs.

Why is Mei still such a big deal? Surely there have been plenty of harder songs in the 11 years since Happy Sky?

>>14980468
its still one of the hardest charts to hard clear, if you can't see why you're probably like 4dan

>>14980457
>I simply can't imagine the coordination of the hands to play the hardest songs
>>14980204

>>14980530
Coordination != Memorization.

>>14980457
I'm not particularly good at SDVX, but it's certainly easier than IIDX.

The coordination of the hands is really just like doing crossovers in DDR or something - you instinctively reach for a knob with a hand, just like instinctively scratching, and then you one-hand the rest of it.

So it's kind of like one-handing IIDX, except there's only 6 buttons to deal with instead of 7 and usually only 4 of them are going to be used when you one-hand.

Reading knobs is far less intuitive than IIDX but actually doing it is easier than IIDX.

Not to mention that the timing is far more lenient, almost to Jubeat levels in my opinion.

>>14974421
/thread

>>14980554
I'm still not convinced, but maybe it's because I'm already used a lot with IIDX (and now I'll have to get used with Taiko, since there's no more IIDX in my city).

>>14980578
I can assure you SDVX is easier than IIDX, i've played both, and it took me just a couple of rounds to start doing 13s in Sound Voltex, but it took me days to start doing 9s in IIDX

>>14980708
This explains a lot, it took me weeks to do 9s in IIDX.

kind of newbie question...
I used to play a lot of ddr on arcade and stepmania, but stuff happen... now 2 years later im back into this but now I want to learn how to rund IIDX (where are the downloads???) and DDR AC on my pc
i found some magnets but torrents are dead, only some links for iidx17 apear to work
can someone give me a hand?

>>14981364
Are you circumcised.

>>14981364
ill give u a hand bby ;)

>copula OST
>shitty songs like NANAIRO and めいさいアイドルあいむちゃん get long/extended versions
>On the FM doesn't get one
Th-there's still hope for vol.2...r-right?

>>14981364
if the magnets are dead then you're SOL unless you get into the sekrit club.

Instead, download Lunatic Rave 2 and some BMS files. There are rips of IIDX songs for the program if you really want them. reddit has a good guide for this stuff.

>>14981705

thank you for playing :^)

>>14980468
Scoring on Mei is fucking retarded and it's still one of the hardest songs to hard clear due to the bullshit 100-200 section that tells Kaidan hopefuls to go fuck themselves.

>>14979108

Doesn't Tokyo Attack have fucked up lights in their marquee too though

>>14981579
why would you need a shitty shit-show track when you have めいさいアイドルあいむちゃん

Will there be an easter freeleech today?

After getting stuck inbetween difficulty 12 and 13 on sdvx for 6 months and having quit for several after, I think I'm finally ready to get back in. If we just had got a fucking sdvx 4 already so we could get 3, i'm sure that would be all the motivation I would need to work past this.

>>14985034
Why a 4 when 3 is doing good?

>>14982824
who mentioned tokyo attack in this conversation?
regardless of that notion, tokyo attack takes better care of their machines i've only been through to columbus twice and gave ggpon two tries but lets face it their machines are pretty bad not to mention im sure some of the stuff theyve sold there is bootleg so if we;re really going to bring up tokyo attack vs ggpon lets go.

any good guides to making BMS for LR2? I don't care much for stuff like BMS of Fighters or the fanmade content in general, but I think it'd be cool to take a crack at making my own charts for personal play

>>14985034
Just practice those crossovers/onehands.

IIRC Dynasty (or maybe dignity I confuse the two)'s 12 chart is a good introduction to such things.

>>14984973

I guess not

>>14985302
Oh god you're one of them. I only brought up that because people love to compare against TA on machine quality and upkeep.

TA has a huge budget that they can spend on machines while GGpon doesn't. Additionally, because they're the community's darlings they can do whatever they want and it's fine. Imagine if GGpon tried to mod their Pop'n with a acrealio wavepass module into the "how to play" panel. They'd be crucified for "ruining machines with their bootleg shit" but hey TA's cool.

If you have any specific details on what's "really bad" I'll be happy to talk that over with you but to be honest everything there that competes with TA is in just as decent shape. Aside from the hole that got torn into Taiko (which, by the way, has been fixed for a month now) I've legitimately never heard any specific details from people.

>>14985302
>been to Columbus twice
>thinks machines are bad
>repeats meme of bootleg shit

Try again. Maybe if you've actually went anytime after Ohayocon you'd know they've poured all of their income into major improvements on everything. Not everyone gets to start out with everything handed to them like Nanuet :^)

>>14985302

I've been to GGPon a few times and it's fine. You're trying to compare two completely different entities here. Appreciate that you have a local arcade at all.

>>14985034
>after getting stuck between 12 and 13 for 6 months
It always blow my mind that people take this long to progress. Are you playing like once a week at an actual arcade? The latter of your post doesn't make it sound like it.

>>14987187
I've been stuck on like 15.1-15.2 playing for about an hour a day for a few weeks now. Not all of us can be Kaiden.

>>14987614
that's fine, maybe. I don't know. I just started 15s myself and I'm sure people think the same about me (he's only 15?). I just don't understand 12s-13s after 6 months.

>>14985904
>You're one of them

I didn't know that having an opinion on something makes me ' one of them ' are we not going to talk about the fact that they were running a very OBVIOUS bootleg set up of sdvx in public

>before how is it obviously bootleg gets brought up

I'm sure it's obvious when you have a keyboard monitor and a DAO all in one area lmao but thats ok right?

also TA keeps their machines in check more than GG does, I honestly dont even see how u are wanting to fight about it unless u are one of the 1s working there

>>14987154
They mentioned they stopped by Columbus once or twice, that does not mean that they live here so maybe they don't have a local arcade.

>>14987678
Can we just not fight? Both groups do what they love doing man

Okay so the last time you were there was a year ago. I understand everything now.
