Who the fuck cares about DJMAX anymore

>>15315963

You're right, I should've made it reflec beat

I couldn't unlock any of the newest songs in Copula's Mystery Line yesterday. Maybe I have to clear the other two requisite plays until the location changes for the new songs to approach but with it being a holiday weekend here, the queue for playing was five persons deep.

I'm sad. I wanted to see if I could clear Something Wonderful A14 on a machine.

Maybe next week.

where the lewds at?

I'm tired of all my things being destroyed by my inextinguishable IIDX rage.

I'm not even good enough to justify being angry.

>>15316205
git gud

>>15316205
It's taken me a long time to not be angry at playing IIDX poorly.

What has helped is having a very long work week and keeping my own records. I don't feel the pressure of better players on me after every play and seeing how poorly my scores stack up against better people. I keep my own scores for home play and feel satisfaction with progress.

With both of these factors, I shrug off poor plays now. "Oh, gee, I just did 10% EX worse than my best play? Damn, that sucks. Oh well. Next."

>>15316205

What's funny is that I'm the opposite in that I used to be able to get upset when i played online multiplayer games and stuff but playing a game like IIDX just fuels an inner self-loathing and i don't have any outbursts

I mean other than the occasional 78% gauge

Some guy on sows made this:

https://my.mixtape.moe/vrmxbn.7z

it's a modified build of osu

>new things:
>scoring isn't based on combo. it takes points away for misses and slider breaks (sometimes).
>hp doesn't drain by itself
>od10 timing is forced everywhere, and you can get 100/50s on sliders
>you can bind M1 and M2 to keyboard keys (but you still can't press K1/K2 and M1/M2 at once)

if you log in with this shit and get banned you're retarded

>>15316428

>other than the occasional 78% gauge

That honestly doesn't bother me that much.

What sends me into a blazing fury is glancing over mid song and seeing my DP bar being like 100 points less than My Best.

Literally not even as good as me from a week ago. I'm getting worse at the game.

i cant do these

my feet get mixed up

>>15316770
For the right pattern, turn so that your right foot is behind you so you can step on the first arrow, then use your left foot while still facing sideways for the second one, then use your right foot for the center, and then left foot and right foot for the last two.

The left pattern is just a crossover. Left foot, right foot, then left foot if you're facing to your right. Or right, left, right in the same motion if you're facing to the left.

any taiko asc tutorials around?

>>15317801
I think in the last thread someone linked a guide for turning the Wii controller into not a complete piece of shit

Anyone wanna help a total retard here? Been trying to run pop'n music lapistoria in jap but it always has a network error. If i run it in korean its fine, but the korean version only has normal songs. I'm on windows 10 if that helps

>>15317967
>>>/sows/

Are there no rhythm games for arm strength? My legs are ripped from DDR, but my arms don't match. I tried doing pushups, but there aren't any colorful notes to hit or score trackers.

>>15318021
The closest would be Taiko, but that's not really strength as much as stamina.

IIDX scrublord shitter here, I'm starting to get into 11s. What are some entry level 11s I should work on? I've already beaten a few (Rock Da House, Xepher, Raison d'etre, G2, Giudecca, Kecak, Arabian Night Rave) but I'm not quite sure what I should be focusing on.

The Bassdrop Freaks video looks a lot more lewd than it is when you can only see it from the corner of your eye.

I thought that shit was a DFC loli in a micro bikini. Turns out it's significantly less arousing.

>>15318021

If you're whoring the bar, you should be getting decently strength in your forearms at least.

>>15317992
all i wanted to know was what strings i need to edit....dont want to get out my way to go to some secret club

>>15318021
pop'n probably requires the most consistent arm movement.

>>15318170
There is an IRC channel you can ask questions in. /jp/ is not pirated game tech support.

>>15318195
didn't know that. kinda blind here.... thanks for the help

>>15318126
But it is a DFC loli in a bikini.

>>15318209

She's got some tit going on there.

Also, she's wearing a skirt so that sort of takes away some more skin exposure.

Still cute though.

>>15317874
why not just buy the wii controller that isn't a piece of shit to begin with?

r8 my iidx playlist senpai

Pretty dank/10.

DJ Setup is my favorite Bemani alias behind only Outphase.

>>15316770
stand looking to the left side of the pads, with your left foot on down left and the right one on up left.

Am I spreading myself too thin by playing 4 Bemani games at once?

I feel like playing IIDX, SDVX, Pop'n, and DM all at once is stunting my growth in all of them. Especially considering the different timing windows in all of them and how they affect your accuracy going between them.

Breaking into 11s on IIDX, 14s on SDVX, 40s on Pop'n and 5s on DM (just started). So basically mediocre at all of them.

>>15319610
If you have a networked arcade near you it's pretty useful for unlocks.

Also the timing windows may be different but the playstyles are different enough that I don't think you'll have a problem disassociating game timing from one another.

>>15318314
maybe it has something to do with the fact that its fucking $500 burger notes

>>15319610
It doesn't matter as long as you're having fun senpai. Also you're in the upper tiers of all of them, so you're getting good even if you're playing 4 of them at a time.

>>15319610
Fun is more important than autistic levels of gud. Don't worry about it, anon.

>doesn't git gud fast enough
>get burned out from listening to the same songs over and over again
bemani is suffering

>>15319610
Either have set days for each one, or have fun playing them all like you should.

>>15319696

Not to mention more and more the same songs are converging on all the games meaning basically every game will just be the same soundtrack in the future.

I'm fine with all the touhou and vocaloid shit on voltex but it's spreading everywhere.

>>15319819
Touhou music fits in rhythm games, because the whole mentality of play is really similar to playing touhou, and it's good music.
A lot of players play both.

>>15319838
I like both, but SDVX could certainly do with less 2hu

Why can't I find a bms for the lr2 menu theme?
Are you telling me there's no bms for the lr2 menu theme?

>>15319838
I wish it had the original 2hu songs. THOSE are good music

>>15320088
Some stepmania/itg packs have them.
It wouldn't translate well to IIDX though.
Actually, it's pretty much sampled, isn't it?
Why don't they have bms'?

>>15318021

dae have DDR for ps3? I fucking hate this piece of shit game and yet I still play it because it's the closest thing to arcade ddr I have.

Is there a way to use my PS3 dance pad with my PC?

>>15319610
None of those levels you're playing is mediocre.

Don't believe the majority of players are like those gods on youtube videos that AAA 12s. At this point you're already better than 97% of the entire planet.

>>15320088
This. What the fuck were they thinking with that Scarlet Moon remix?

I was about to bitch and moan about impossible chords on Pop'n, but then I realized I accidentally put it on random.

I like that, random has no constraints based on "feasibility". Makes it a whole new game.

>>15320580
14s on SDVX is fairly mediocre, 40s on pop'n is debatable.
It's ridiculous to use 'entire planet' as a metric for somewhat niche games, by that logic someone playing 3s is better than 95% of others purely by notion of them not playing.

how do i blink?

when im dealing with dense patterns my eyes dont blink then they get dry and teary. if i consciouly tell my eyes to blink then i miss notes. what do

>>15321028

Wear goggles. People will know you ain't fuckin' around when you step up to the tables with goofy looking goggles on your face.

>>15321028
Play Angelic Mix heavy nobar until you can spin like a pro
You can now blink whenever you want in any rhythm game

>>15320088
this, half the remixes are shit compared to the originals and the other half are some sped up x-core version or some meme arrange

>>15321028
Blink faster. Conscious blinks takes much, much longer than unconscious blinks.

You're not aiming to completely close your eyes, just flick your eyelids downwards a bit.

So how is VOEZ

>>15321330
The fuck is a meme arrange

>>15322002
>gossun gossun gossun gossun
>bad apple
>cirno's math class

>>15322008
Just because a song is a meme doesn't make it a good song.
Bad apple and cirno's math class are really good sdvx charts.

>>15322058
I never said they were bad charts/songs, I'm just describing what type of arranges are in the game. It's either in there because it's a meme or it's (typically) some garbage remix.

>>15322058
I meant 'bad song'
That said, the Marisa stole the precious thing chart is trash

>SUNKiSSDROP ～jun side～ was removed in DanceDanceRevolution X2

Why

>>15322458
This whole "removing songs" shit is incredibly dumb.

>>15322476
Make space for newer songs yo.

Also sometimes the licenses run out.

>>15322595
Makes space is not an acceptable reason unless each machine has literally 100 gigs of hard drive space

Licenses running out makes sense though.

>Never really bother with all this White number Green number horseshit
>"Who the fuck would ever want to see less of the screen?"
>Just lazily dial GN in to ~310-320 and play the song
>Actually start fiddling with them
>Set WN to ~200 and GN to 330
>Start to feel really comfortable with the speed and density of the notes
>Accuracy dramatically improves

What in the fuck sorcery is this?

I also noticed it's far easier to score on slower Hi-Speeds with the trade off of being harder to read. So basically the opposite of conventional rhythm game logic.

>>15322825
>I also noticed it's far easier to score on slower Hi-Speeds with the trade off of being harder to read. So basically the opposite of conventional rhythm game logic.

That makes perfect sense though. If it were faster then it'd be way easier to time cause you have an easier time seeing how far the note is from the line.

>>15322825
you just got to find the sweet spot.

>>15320644
its too bad djmax portable's random is complete shit because you run into patterns which are physically impossible to play (i.e. holding left and right on the dpad at the same time)

>>15323177

That's the only impossible combination though. If they let you assign buttons this could easily be fixed. Such a serious oversight with such easy solution. djmax devs aren't that competent.

>>15323177
At least you can reassign buttons on most versions. It's still impossible to random 8B songs, but if you set L and R to the outer lanes, you can random any 6B song.

That the devs don't have some code that automatically changes any of those chords into playable ones is really stupid though.

>>15323206
I don't think the solution is button remapping, I think the solution is auto rerolling randoms if the resulting chart has a left-right combination.

>>15323250
Yeah that works too. But if X was also the third button along with > and you put Fever on down on the d-pad, you can have any combination of buttons.

>>15322825
For me it's the opposite. I find dense parts of songs easier to read with sudden on ~250-300, but find timing harder at a lower speed. I normally set my green number to 270-280 for a song I'm familiar with, and 300 for a song I don't know.

>gamo2 us storehouse
>still no dao FPS available
i-i'll just stick with my uskoc for the next year or so

>>15322825
IIDX defies all conventional logic.

It's unergonomic and sometimes you have to make things harder to read to do better.

>>15321028

this happens to me but i wear contacts so every few songs or so my contacts literally fall out and i have to go to the bathroom and put them back in, it's awful

at the arcade i just think about blinking a lot

>Beat hard song weeks ago

>Can't do it again even when you're clearly more skilled

I hate flukes.

Do you burn a lot of calories playing IIDX?

>>15323919
no

>>15323919
Go for DDR.

Even when I was fit that shit nearly gave me a heart attack.

>>15323919

Don't know about IIDX but I get hot and sweaty as fuck playing Pop'n.

>>15318862
>rave it rave it

I just cleared 9th dan on Happy Sky CS, but I can't clear it on Empress CS.

Can someone give me some info on how the CS dan levels stack up against the arcade ones?

>>15322458
I'm more confused about why the DDR version of Gold Rush got replaced with the Beatmania version.

>>15318862

>>15325187
To be fair that wouldn't be a very long playlist as of current

>>15325071
just going by a quick look at the songs between empress and copula
acid pumper >>>> quasar
pendulums > rage
cookie bouquets <= b4u, probably depends on the person
sampling >> moon child

i'd say copula's is definitely harder

>>15325261
cookie bouquets is miles harder than b4u imo, but agreed with the rest

>>15325340
It's the B4U (BEMANI FOR YOU MIX) version, not the level 10 original.

>>15325261

I know fuck all about all this Dan shit.

I honestly figured all the songs were always the same in every iteration. I mean, Safari is always the last song in 7th Dan, right? I just figured that applied to every song on every course.

What's even the point if there's no common point of reference? You can say "I'm 8th Dan", but that means fuck all because now you have to add on which mix you passed 8th Dan.

Oh well.

>>15325487
cause no one cares about anything but the most recent version

>>15325071
STATISTIK says this:
Empress CS:
11.4 - quasar
11.5 - 天空脳番長危機十六連打
11.9 - B4U (BEMANI FOR YOU REMIX)
12.3 - moon_child

and

it's been like this for a couple months. am I just destined to suck?

Does this look about right?

>>15326966
Label your axes if you want it to make sense

>>15326966

>>15326966
>>15327008
>>15327121
No, really, please label your axes, it doesn't make any sense

>>15327779
>>15327008

It's really not hard to imagine it's simply absolute beginner to highest level of play possible from left to right.

>>15326966
>>15327884
That makes no sense at all. Are you saying x is skill and y is time?

Your picture is just a bunch of curved lines, no one is going to understand it unless you label it correctly

>>15326966
This makes no sense without axes.

The best I can make out of it is probably this.

>>15328087

Holy shit, it doesn't require any labeling.

It's simply the learning curve to achieve the highest level of play determined by difficulty relative to each other. IIDX being the hardest game sets the upper bound of difficulty at highest level each other game falls within.

Also, these lines are individually independent of time. The IIDX line can represent a decade while the SDVX line can represent a year.

I figured this would be the best place to post this

Currently have a Groove Coaster 2:Heavenly Festival cabinet.it's version 2.05 so it's outdated as fuck

Is there anyway to buy a NESiCA router to connect this motherfucker from a secondhand dealer?

I've emailed the proper departments for SEGA and Taito.Called their headquarters in Tokyo and the motherfuckers won't get back to me.

I'm willing to buy the stupid thing (other forums report it at $1500) and I'm willing to subscribe at the rate of 33% charge per play if I can get a hold of a Link Fever upgrade kit.

But I just want to be able to update it to GC2's final patch and save high scores at minimum.

Anyone here able to help with that?

>>15328362
That is the absolute worst way I've ever seen a difficulty curve described.

>>15328362
I still have no idea what this graph is supposed to show

>>15328468

And just how many difficulty curves graphing out several bemani games that has its own nuances have you heard described?

Fuck all of you, forget the whole thing.

Should have known better than to post something potentially amusing on the most autistic thread on the most autistic board on this autism support message board.

>>15328362
>IIDX being the hardest game sets the upper bound of difficulty at highest level each other game falls within.
That became pretty debatable the moment you put a dance game onto the chart. DDR's top-tier stuff is physically demanding to the point where it's pretty easy to make a case for it being harder than IIDX.

>>15328491
it would have helped if your graph made any sense to anyone but yourself

>>15328491
to be fair anon,certain games are naturally easier than others for certain people.

GITADORA is a fucking cakewalk for me,but that's because I studied jazz drumming and can play a few different styles and have been playing for 12 years.Also having played in several bands throughout the years,stamina isn't an issue either. I can clear several Master charts no problem.S ranking shit like 10,000,000,000 or Model DD10 isn't terribly difficult,but you put me in front of a SDVX or IIDX cab and I struggle to play anything past a 10 at the moment.

>>15328491
It's not even potentially amusing because nobody can make sense out of it but your autistic self.

Here, it makes more sense with the graph flipped.

>>15328569
Yeah, that graph seems about right.

Finally got my first AA ever

And yes, it was on Mermaid Girl

>>15330859

Accuracy juice leaving your brain when you hit those dense bursts.

>>15330859
basically you blink less and secrete more tears. then the excess fluid in your eyes gets drained down into your nose.

>>15330467
your first AA is a 10? what dan are you

Starting to get back into 11s since I switch to AC data.

Oddly enough though, the 11s I passed on LR2 and the 11s I'm passing now have 0 coincidence.

IIDX is one goofy game.

>>15331379
8th dan and to be fair it only took me this long because rarely play anything below 10 nowadays. Only 10s and 11s so I could probably have gotten an AA much earlier. Maybe with the Eurobeat Mermaid Girl.

I have really bad accuracy so I can barely get an A on 11s. It's mostly B with them.

>>15321595
Fun, thank you.
Someone described it as "what Museca should've been" and I'm pretty sure I agree

Anyone buy Sanwas (or anything, really) from Rakuten? How much was thew shipping? They don't tell you until after you place the order.

>>15333721
1500 for a set of 7 2dicks buttons

So this weekend, I heard there was a big amateur anime convention organized by some engineering school. The guys have been doing it for, like, 20 years, and I thought it would be better than those bigger professional conventions full of overpriced japanese goods. Well, I was wrong, it was overpriced as fuck.

Anyway, I decided to go, and after feeling salty after paying the entrance, I heard there was a "DDR room" inside the convention. I then went to the said room, only to find 2 Impact pads and Stepmania projected on the wall with DDR2014 skin. Disappointed at first, I recovered quickly and thought "well, whatever", and decided that I may as well enjoy myself and play a bit.

I go toward the second player pad, which is near the door, and that's when the guys who were keeping watch on the room stand up from their chair and go toward me at full speed. I didn't quite understand at first, because there were other people entering the room and they also wanted to try dancing, probably, but the first guy goes onto the first dance pad, while the second guy makes stop signs with his hands while approaching me, as if he didn't want me to step on the pad because it was dangerous.

The guy looks daggers at me and say: "err... we're going to play now". Politely, I tell him ok with a smile and ask whether I could play after that. He says "yeah, yeah", but I see that his lunatic face is already focusing on his duel with the other guy. I sit on a chair and wait for my turn, while the intrigued passerbys who wanted to play also look at them.

The guys are okay, they clear 15/16 but fail at 17+. But they don't show any sign of stopping, and soon, the passerbys whisper among themselves. One girl goes straight behind the same guy who spoke to me, less than a meter behind the pad, in hope of being able to play as the guys just finish a song and stepmania goes back to the select menu. The guy notices her presence and gives her a scornful silent look before starting to select another song again.

I had enough and went to see other parts of the event, but I went back later to check back on the room. The same two guys were playing while people were waiting on the few chairs spectators had to sit on. One guy entered the room and he was also wearing the staff t-shirt. He put some talc on the ground and then spread it on his shoes. He went on dueling the two guys one after another and wrecked them on level 18 songs. That's only then that the two guys sat down again, exhausted, and that people were able to play "DDR", a few hours before the closing of the event.

Epitanime sucks and is overpriced

>>15334035
really though just play more, you need to build up endurance doing this the same way you need to with any other activity that involves repeatedly moving a muscle.

>>15334197

I have considered going to an anime convention in the past because of ddr rooms and stuff like this, and i've seen some really cool ones before. But when i think of all the fucking cringeworthy autists and faggots you have to be around it puts me off

>>15334325
The coolest dudes (and usually the ones who are better at the game anyway) are the ones who don't care as much

>>15334172

So like 95 dollars for 7 motherfucking buttons?

Brutal. Maybe I should have bought when the yen was weaker.

>>15334197
I've played stepmania for ages and I know like 0 terminology. When you say 15/16/17 etc do you mean these numbers in grey next to the names?

>>15334659
Unofficial Stepmania charts don't have difficulties that match up well with actual DDR charts. For instance, there are simfiles with expert charts rated 11, but were you to play the simfile with your feet instead of your fingers, the chart would probably go above a 19.

>>15334197 is talking about DDR step ratings. From DDR X onwards, DDR songs have been rated on a difficulty scale of 1-20.

>>15334714
Yeah I thought that. I'm just really at a loss when it comes to judging my own skill level.

That's a random screenshot I got off google. I just downloaded stepmania for my new pc, and for example one of the default songs is Springtime by Kommisar. That says its a '12' on expert in the bottom left corner. Does that mean >>15334197 this person is playing like suuuper high difficulty?

Yes

>>15334035
Try having a different set up. Were you using mouse? There are several ways to hold a mouse, and quite a few of them tire your arm out more than necessary. For instance, when I use my mouse to normally browse the internet and do normal stuff, I let my wrist and forearm stay on the table. But when I'm playing osu it helps a lot more to practice playing with your forearm lifted slightly, to where your elbow isnt completely on the table. Also, start slow. Like, really slow. Trying to start off playing fast songs before you can do 120-150 bpms will royally screw you.

>>15335714
Fuck me I just realized you said osu!mania. So disregard all that, as I havent spent any amount of time in osu!mania.

>>15316459
Fuck, that;s something I always thought was stupid about osu, the fact that you CANT miss time the first note of a slider. Idk why it bothered me so much, just thought for a competitive game, it should've been penalized.

>>15335722
>osu
>competitive
Haha good one anon.

Anyone know how to connect to programmed sun?
i keep getting the error 5-2002-0915

>>15335987
I do!

can you help me then?

>>15335994
No one will help you. Not even if you're in the big Safe Place secret club. Everyone's scared of the boogeyman

>>15336083

How dare you even mention that which shall not be said?

Do you want him to descend upon all of us and with it, too, his loathsome wrath?

>>15335987

Connect with pcbid and card
ask on oinkers

>>15335987
visit sows, you've almost certainly set your config wrong. Look at the data thread for whatever game you're running.

>>15335987
If you did as the other anons said and you still have problems, check your router config and also run as admin.

>>15334788
Difficult levels in dance games:
>DDR old scale: Goes from 1-10 (with a seldom-used "flashing 10" difficulty). 1-9 are the normal difficulties, while every "really hard" song gets lumped into 10
>ITG scale: The DDR scale, except 10s are decompressed into 10-13
>Stepmania scale: A more chaotic, less defined version of the ITG scale, because people love making songs that were never meant to be played on foot. If you're lucky, 1-13 will roughly follow ITG's scale and the keyboard-only songs will be the numbers above that. If you're unlucky, an 11 will be "Mash the keyboard"-tier.
>DDR new scale: Goes from 1-19 (and potentially 20), with 15 being the new "the really hard songs start here" number that was previously held by 10.
>current PIU scale: hard to equate to 4-button games, but pretty similar to DDR's new scale.

If they were doing 15/16s on foot, you can assume he's using the new DDR scale.

>>15336262

There have been like 5 or 6 iterations of DDR since they revamped the system and there still isn't a 20 yet.

What are they even waiting for? An impossible to pass song to be made?

>>15336452
Look at the current upper bound for 19s: Valkyrie Dimension. A 20 would have to be at least harder than that. Considering that the very best players struggle to even AA it, is there even a point for a 20 right now?

>>15336552

I'm still angry nothing I passed was ever harder than a 16.

I mean PSMO is a 16 while little ol' Max 300 is a 15. Absolutely rough.

Although I did move onto ITG, I'm sure Summer Speedy mix or Vertex^2 would be a 17 or 18.

>>15336740
I always thought PSMO should've been a 17 considering its harder than most other 17s

Hell its harder than Trigger and that shits an 18, though that should be re-rated too in my opinion.

>>15336452
I half-expect Valkyrie Dimension to get re-rated to 20 in the mix after some newer song takes the title of "first 20". That shit is ridiculous compared to every other 19.

>>15334410
With dao you'll be paying 95 dollars plus shipping, Rakuten is your best option.

>>15335987
Thank you for playing.

>>15336785
What does that mean?

>>15336262
That rating of the 'stepmania scale' isn't necessarily true. A lot of pad charts go well above 13, and rightfully so.
There's a bunch of charts in

>>15336262
Thank u for the info dude. I think I'd like to try my luck some day with a DDR room. I feel like I'm at a better level on foot vs. the keyboard

On stepmania I got used to using the 4 small individual arrow keys (with one hand) and I'm finding it super hard to switch to using two separate hands. I'm pretty much at a standstill for the difficulties I can play since one hand can only do so much. Is this a common problem?

>>15337883
Just play askl before bed for about an hour a night, you'll get it in a week tops
It's frustrating, but only for a little while
It helps if you play not hard songs that you haven't played before to transition with first

>>15337781
They appreciate you enjoying their game

Can I become like him if I do the same training?

>>15337896
For some reason I cant find a way to change my arrow keys to ASKL or anything other than the arrow keys?

>>15338029
Should be in the options somewhere
Are you using a different theme or something?

>>15338013
No, because he is charismatic, attractive and Japanese

>>15338013
probably not as the time where rhythm games were at all cool in the west was like 10 years ago

>>15338013

How are there people in Japan that can still be awestruck by DDR?

DDR hasn't been news for almost 20 years.

So every time I buy a game from Play-asia, they don't put the shipping cost on the receipt for some reason (I don't ask them to do that).. I'm not sure if that's normal or they sympathize with me because of my country's high tax on imports and try to help me a little.

Question is, for anyone who got some controllers from Dao, can you tell me if they do the same? Maybe I should email their customer service and ask.

There's a BIG difference from being taxed from a 229 dollars purchase and an almost 500 dollars one.

There's also the fact that I always pay for registered SAL but with Gamo2 EMS is the only option and that may be different. I just want my FP7 already.

>>15339404
I ordered to yurop, dao marked 40€ as the price of the controller and marked the full shipping costs which were 80€, so I had to pay only about 20€ VAT.

>>15328552
How do I get good at drumming

>>15339469
you hit the drum membrane with a stick
sometimes you hit a metal saucer

>>15339432
>Full shipping price
>Lower price for the controller

Weird, but still something I guess.

>>15339181
It's easy to forget when you're so used to seeing it, but high-level DDR is impressive as fuck. Meanwhile, games like IIDX have to compete with every other reflex-based arcade game in Japan.

>>15339914
Isn't IIDX objectively the toughest music game played by your hands to get good though?

>>15339946

It is but for me high level pop'n is the most entertaining thing to watch

>>15328552
I only learned the basics of drumming a long time ago, but managed to go right into Drummania, the first time i played (DM V8) i managed to jump right to 30-37s with no issues on my second song.

>>15339946
yeah but it's more impressive to see someone stomp arrows fast with their feet than someone tapping keys fast with their fingers and occasionally moving a turntable a couple of mm

>>15340270

I get that the general movement of drumming can help but it still should have taken at least several hours to acclimate to the color-pad associations.

>>15340270

I get that the general movement of drumming can help but it still should have taken at least several hours to acclimate to the color-pad associations.

Although I guess it would be way easier to go from Drumming to 6 piece DM to 9 piece DM.

Just starting out on XG is fucking my shit. I still get completely blown out when a song that uses the left pedal comes along.

>>15339946
I think Gitadorais inherently the hardest rhythm game, but its charts don't get as ridiculous as Pop'n or IIDX's top tier.

Disregarding IIDX doubles, that is.

how the fuck do you do double scales

>>15341033
Give up :V

>>15341033
Do one scale with each hand

>>15341144
i couldn't

>>15341033
you star at the combo counter and hope you completely forget what you're doing while your fingers move unconsciously.

>>15341208

How do you make it to 12s and still get tripped up by patterns?

Double staircase especially, that one's been around since hard 9s.

No offense, though. I'll never attempt a 12 thinking I'm capable of clearing it.

Why I only found Pump it Up machines but no DDR machines?

>>15342711
One company never stopped giving a shit about America. Prime is a great mix anyway.

>>15341633
no double scales in any 9s or 10s can compare to this

For some reason I expected this to be the DPA video.

i know you guys hate osu! but I made it to the triangles in image material and was really happy with my progress and had to blog somewhere cheers

>>15343506

what the fuck are you ranting about

>>15343506
ur a triangle

>>15342711
One company actually likes having players outside of asia, the other one doesn't/

>>15340942
>>15339946
Wouldn't keyboardmania technically be the hardest?

>>15343506

it's click the circles not click the triangles you fucking idiot

>>15344399

Keyboardmania isn't actually all that hard.

It had the potential to be hard as fuck but there were only ever like 30 songs total for all 3 mixes. Difficulty scale from 1 to 6, with 6 being actually hard as fuck. Only ever passed one. There are like 3 or 4 6s total.

Everything else I easily S'd (or SS'd, I forget the grading system by now) within a month.

It would be gloriously hard if doubles weren't so stupid. Having to look at scrolling notes on two screens at once is almost impossible. It should have one widescreen monitor.

>>15344647
>tfw no perditus paradisus for keyboardmania

Can you get multiple plays per credit on these machines or just one? I always just get game over in Project Diva

>>15345527
You die in the game you die in real life. That's why Bemani is hardcore

>Highest end of Hyper gets too hard
>Everything on EX is like 44+

This 40 chasm is a fucking nightmare.

>>15345562
That's why Spada is the most hardcore rhythm game.

GLAssist has updated and is now different from when the reddit guide was written.
Is setting up custom folders for the separate tables and such important?

>>15334035
well you want your fingers the same way as in piano, curved such that you could be holding onto a ball. that help prevent rsi and that kind of stuff so i assume it should also be less tiring. other than that don't stop when your arms get tired, it's the only way to make them stronger.

tfw my second attempt at 7th dan, totally didnt expect to make it (the first attempt was like a month ago)

but damn that felt pretty good

>>15348514

What determines if you pass or fail a dan course?

I'm creating a template for an Omega GX dance pad, and I've run into a terrible problem.

I can't find any high resolution pictures of kanji. In particular, hidari, migi, ue and shita

Can any of you help me?

>>15348562
you can just create a large image and copy the kanji you want

>>15348537
you pass if you can make it through all 4 songs without the gauge dropping to 0%

>>15348746

At any point or just the end of the song?

>>15348757
Any point.

>>15348768

That's be rough if the groove gauge was no regen. I'm thinking I could probably BS my way through 7th dan now that I know this.

>>15348827
It's not no regen, though. It's a slightly more lenient version of HARD.

>>15348827

fyi the dan course gauge regen is somewhat similar to EASY option

>>15348832
>>15348834

How do I even into dans? I don't see any sort of option for it in Pendual.

Is it an arcade only type of deal or is there some super secret button combination I need to input?

>>15348868
1. start game
2. class mode instead of standard or premium free or whatever the fuck
3. select a dan/kyu
4. ???
5. fail

>>15348868
It's named Class mode.

If the option for choosing mode isn't appearing, you may have to turn event mode/free play off in the config or something like that.

Do you actually play just 3 songs and it's game over and you have to start all over again? You can play with infinite Premium Time, never needing to reset if you're not in event mode.

>>15348881

>Do you actually play just 3 songs and it's game over and you have to start all over again?

Y-yeah. Although I get 4 songs.

I tried what you said and I don't think I did it right. I turned off event mode and selected Free but now I only get 2 songs.

Do I have to turn off freeplay too? I'm afraid my PCBID will get fucked.

>>15349240

God damn anon
Get the Pendual unlocker and get that premium free timer freeze and song select timer freeze

>>15344399
Keyboardmania has the most buttons, but Gitadora has a lot of inconveniences that aren't immediately obvious:
>you play with sticks instead of fingers, so you only have one input per hand to hit 7 different buttons with
>the large spacing between pads means it takes a lot more effort to switch from one note to the other
>two pedals means you sometimes have to have all four of your limbs tapping at different rhythms
Gitadora is fucking ridiculous when you really think about it. There's a reason that Gitadora's top charts haven't escalated to the same extreme that the other 15 year old Bemani games have.

>>15349240
lrn2hexedit

assuming you're on sows, literally read the thread for pendual and enable the hex edits for whatever you want - CS song delay, premium free, premium free timer freeze, unlock all songs, change "network on" to LED ticker text, etc.

Or get the unlocker, which does this automatically.

Also get Omnimix if you want/can afford the ratio. Combined, all of this basically turns it into a CS setup.

Keep free play on, not sure about event but I think you keep that on as well.

>>15348648
what about the rest

or do you count everything past shimedore non canon

Does simple BMS player still exist? I can only find a dead link.

I had it on my old PC and really miss it.

>>15349317

>CS song delay

What does this do? Change the time it takes for the song preview to start?

>>15349554
Holding down Start enables you to change hi-speed forever without the song starting on you before you're ready.

>>15349559

Oh shit, that's convenient.

feel when you can do 13s and a song you like has a 10 adv and 15 exh

>>15349789
are you me

>>15349789

This shit's gotta stop. There should be a limit to the difference is ratings between difficulties. On IIDX, it shouldn't be more than 3. I think I saw a 6 once.

>>15349864
i can also do 11s and easy 12s, and monopole is an 8 hyper and mid 12 another

>>15349864
who cares, seriously
all songs have easy and hard charts, get over it

>>15349864
Pollinosis 6 hyper, hard 11 another.

>>15350741
This song is bullshit anyway, my keyboard won't register enough presses for those crazy chords.

>>15350762
use a PS/2 keyboard

>>15350492

The problem is not being able to play a song you really like because it's either too hard or too easy.

>>15351130
we just need to get gud

all the songs I want to play are 15's in SDVX

in IIDX it's not so bad.

>>15351130

It's the same in IIDX because even though there are smaller differences in the actual numbers I'd assume the feeling >>15349789 is talking about is the same as a 9 hyper and 11 another when you're at the middle in 10s

>>15349864
cheer train dph 6 dpa retarded 12

Wasn't there a site with the 2dix osu(yeah, I know)mania charts? Been wanting to play some 7/8k with a friend.

>>15351805

I feel like its less of a problem with 2dx. Im breaking into 10s but i still play 7s or 8s but when i do i focus on accuracy and still have a lot of fun doing that

>>15351916
There's BMS converts. I'm pretty sure komnai dmca'd all the osu charts.

And by the time you're playing osumania, why the fuck aren't you playing BMS instead?

>>15352125
By BMS I assume you mean LR2? From what I've heard it's kind of a mess, so I wanted something that's easier to set up before getting really into it.

>>15352207
If you disable BGA and song previews it doesn't crash anymore.

It's not tooooo hard to setup just googly "lr2 setup guide" and there's a leddit post with a detailed guide on it. There's also HD skins from ripped AC data so you can actually pretend you're playing IIDX.

>>15352207
>>15352211
It doesn't really feel like IIDX though. It's a simulator alright.

I started with IIDX then went to LR2 for a brief while, then went back to IIDX and played the shit out of it to get at a decent level.

Then I played LR2 the other day and was getting worse scores than I was at the beginning even if I'm objectively a better player now. It's not really the same thing. If you want to play IIDX, you play IIDX.

when the HECK is lapistoria getting card support??

>>15351916

Back when I played mania i used this website to get the charts that had been removed but were still ranked+approved (for some reason)

http://www.osubeatmaps.com/en/

Played on Tokyo Attack's IIDX this weekend and holy crap I can see why they don't like bringing it to cons anymore. It's in bad shape.
Speakers are blown out, the headphone jacks sound kind of mediocre, turntable is incredibly loose, no stage, no lights, and the TV (propped up by a Dell) wobbles like crazy while you're playing. That thing needs some serious love.

>>15352246
>literally zero search filters
All I want are some comfy osumania maps without fucking spaghetti everywhere.
Why is it so fucking hard to find mania maps without long notes?

>>15352235
>If you want to play IIDX, you play IIDX.
Yeah, I've got data for playing solo. Just wanted something to play with my friend.

>>15352246
Cheers.

>>15352268

Literally type 'iidx' into the search bar, shows results

>Why is it so fucking hard to find mania maps without long notes?
Because mania is an o2jam simulator.

I was so close to clearing Max 300 today
So close

Copula.

Was able to play Outbreak (good), Prim fish song (it's Prim), and Quick Master (I still don't quite get the series' hardon for this particular song). I guess there are some specific hoops I may have to jump through to get to whatever one has all the BPM shift bullshit and Something Wonderful.

I'm playing at a R1 where they moved the machine last weekend to be opposite of some Alpine ski game and the screen and lights are distracting to me. They reflect on the IIDX screen. Irritating. I guess I'll just have to suck it up.

>Have a dream I'm about to play IIDX on an actual cabinet instead of being a keyboard pleb as usual

>Alarm clock wakes me up as soon as I pick a random song there

Not even kidding. I'm getting cucked out of playing IIDX for real even in my fucking dreams. The awful timing was just uncanny. It was so precisely on time I could still see the screen as my eyes open.

>>15353713

As a keyboardfag, you would have failed miserably anyways. Your subconscious did you a favor.

I've heard that TA's SDVX cabs are pretty up to date now. Can you actually adjust the offset yet or do I just have to deal with getting a billion earlies because I'm a pleb that needs to play to the music?

>>15352264
Do you have a picture of it?

How shit does it look like?

>>15353998
If it's any iteration of GW, you can change offset.

IIRC it's Start+3/9 on the numpad.

>>15354507
As of January-ish that was disabled/not working on their cabs for some reason, though

>>15354539
If their cabs aren't E-amuse enabled at all and just on free play, then there's a chance that the numpad isn't even connected/setup, which would explain that.

If Start+6 doesn't save hi-speed and 1/7 don't change the mic volume then that confirms it.

>>15354549
Yeah, headphone controls and hispeed lock worked then, but for some reason offset changes did not. I'm hoping that's fixed for the next con I go to that they're at.

>>15354385
Not the same anon but I can confirm shit status. All of the text on the FX panel was horribly scratched up, and the turntables were way way way too loose (2P especially). The shitty wobbling Emerson shit screen was awful (I'm a violent button masher) and I had to use my headphones because the speakers were blown out.

Also none of their machines were setup for local matching this time despite it working at Tekko and that was really disappointing ): Local match SDVX is so good!

is there a reason this thread is made in /jp/ instead of /vg/

would the greater exposure put sows at risk or something? otherwise i think its better for expanding our community

>>15355365
all the games discussed are pretty much /jp/ only

/vg/ is for guitar hero or whatever.

>>15355365
>>15355411
People lurking /jp/ are more likely to be fans of rhythm games and touhou gameplay (another 'general' on here) than people lurking /vg/
vg is a shit board anyway

>>15355365
/vg/ is more interested in call of duty and rock band than games like this, which are pretty inaccessible for the most part

>>15355365
/vg/ is more autistic than we are and we don't want to compete.

>tfw want to get into ddr
>tfw no money/space for a ddr pad

Feels bad.

>>15355689
ha loser

>>15355689
Do you have any arcades near you? Generic DDR pads aren't that expensive. Unless you really don't have like the 20 quid it would cost you, then.. That sucks. :(

>>15355827
Honestly if I get a ddr pad I would want to get a decentish quality one.

Also there's a bowling alley near me but ehhhh.

>>15355953
I feel you. The generic ones aren't all bad though. And I asked in case there was a DDR machine there, which you could play on. There was actually a machine at the bowling alley near where I live but they replaced it with another fucking grabby machine. I was devastated, I used to play on it with friends all the time. DDR isn't loved anymore.

Does the grip tape on FP7 just naturally come undone by itself? I know I'm not being too rough on it but shit's peeling slightly after about a year

>>15356011
Too much shakunetsu, ey?

Tfw people call pump it up DDR near me

>>15353713
It's ok anon, keyboard iidx is the superior control method for experts only

>>15356088
I'm glad you finally admitted. It's not like actually pushing buttons is what made the game hard in the first place haha.

>>15356011
This is completely normal. DAO's glue is just shit. Plus the TT surface "shrinks" over time, leaving a bit of space around the edges which is dumb.

>>15355365
/vg/ threads tend to create inner cliques, repeated shitposting and namefags. thankfully we don't have that here aside from the occasional skub or "i wanna suck corins dick" shitposting

Which Bemani would you fuck?

>>15355365

The thread wouldn't last 2 days in /vg/

Last time someone tried to do it by themselves they made it for osu and it just got shitposted in until it hit page 10 before like 50 posts

Please fix your jpeg artifacting

Also, what controller?

Tfw have every controller I could want but no will to play games

>>15356808
Better than having all the games and no controllers.

How often do people actually bring their headphones to play IIDX at an arcade?

From my experience, it would be better not to wear them so you can hear both your button clicks and the song.

>>15356942
>listening to the music to play IIDX

>>15356772
SVSE 5
inb4 buy a IIDX controller, i already have an FP7

>>15357001

You can identify when certain patterns or scratches are coming up by hearing the song.

Also, the music is great so not listening to it is a sin.

And that's why I asked if people actually do it often, because headphones are somewhat detrimental to play.

>>15356748
How can I see this kinda stuff? I bought an FP7 from DJDAO and I'm waiting on it, I have the online paypal receipt and everything, but I can't log into their site with either of their e-mails and I've got no way of tracking it.

>>15357634

You should have made an account before you bought it. Then you could just log in and see your orders.

Just email him and ask. I did the same thing when I bought my FP7.

>>15357634
Yeah what >>15357698 said, I got my tracking number on the site in Order Status, you can probably email Gamo2 Support and get it from them though.

>>15357698
>>15357705

Try taking a break for a while. If you still can't play and have fun after that, then you might need to give up.
>>15356748
sauce?

>you can set a IIDX machine so that you have to insert 100 coins to play a single song

25 fucking dollars to play a 2 minute song.

did u just make a post on facebook about this

quit blogging and just fucking play however and whenever you want,
remember, it's just a game for fun anon

>>15357801
Ignore the negativity.
Either you can put that effort in and become a better player, or you can sit where you are and enjoy the music you can already play.
These games aren't easy, but nobody's forcing you to play them. Remember why you started playing and how you got here in the first place.

>>15357801

Don't worry anon i'm literally in the same place as you, 6th dan and feeling like i'll never improve. Just failing songs over and over until i magically surpass "the wall"
truly this is suffering, but i spent over 200$ on this controller so i can't stop playing

>>15357801
play at your own pace man. theres no "win" in iidx

>>15356482
Ameto

>>15358109

There's no need to play songs that are way too hard for you.

Let's say you are 6 dan then you can probably clear 8s and a good number of 9s.

try to random HC then EXC 7s and 8s, eventually get AAAs on those. it's good practice and a lot more fun than doing 10s that you can't even read properly.

>>15356482
Grace.

>>15356482
all of them

>>15358321
There is, by not playing.

>>15356482

I officially submit SDVX is not a game one can become "good" at.

It is a game based off of perfectly choreographed movements forged by hours of practicing the same song over and over.

When a new IIDX mix comes out, no doubt the best of the best are sightreading AAAing 11s and maybe 12s. Not on SDVX. Ain't nobody sightreading 15s and AAAing them. A/AAing them, sure, maybe. But only after repeated playings of songs can one master them.

>>15358732
everyone already knew this.

>>15358745

Oh. I genuinely thought I was stirring up shit.

>>15358798
Nah mate, that's how it is

>>15358732
You should watch Lirinsky's streams sometime. He streams from some arcade in Korea every time there's an update to the game, and regularly sightread UC/AAAs new 15s. SDVX is my favorite Bemani game by a long shot but even I'll admit that compared to IIDX it's pretty easy.

>>15358380
>Tongue sticking out

What a sex fiend.

>>15357925
un-love S

>>15358732
AAAing 15s is nothing even I've managed to sightread a few

I got that 55 gb Insane BMS file.
Is there any way to sort out what's actually worth playing?
A lot of songs are just egh. Not bad, just egh.
I read about difficulty tables and whatever, but GLAssist has updated since the english tutorial was written, and now I can't make sense of how to set it up.

>>15360124
>A lot of songs are just egh. Not bad, just egh.

That's BMS for you. No quality control. Shitty music and/or bad charts

>>15360148
There's some absolutely great simfile packs filled with nothing but quality if you know where to look. I was hoping it would be similar to filter it down to somethign like that. I guess not.

>>15360253
I guess, but I regret wasting my time with that 55gb pack.

If I start LR2 ever again I'll just go for the smaller packs people recommend as good.

>>15358732
This is even more true for DDR

>>15360451
Random speed changes will always be the ultimate bullshit.

>>15356482

This fucking GLAssist is fucking retarded. Fuck it.

I am livid.

>>15356942
I play IIDX with headphones at all times.

I don't give a single fuck if it makes my scores worse, I would enjoy playing the game less without them. The clacking is awful.

>>15360933
>The clacking is awful

Heretic.

http://www.dream-pro.info/
WHAT DOES IT MEAN

>>15356942
I would bring my headphones if cabinets near me had headphone jacks, only the SDVX ones do at the arcade i go to.

>>15360933
>The clacking is awful.
Fuck you

>>15356482

>>15360957
>http://www.dream-pro.info/

super unko

>>15360933
The clacking is the only true reason I want to stop playing keyboard and get a controller.

It sounds delicious.

>>15356482

>>15360469
DDR has always needed a flat scrolling speed option, but they refuse to implement it because it would drop every song that uses them down a rank or two.

>>15361536
C-mod is cheating.

>>15356482

>>15361723
I'd take C-mod over bullshit like Chaos and Healing-D-Vision any day.

Imo bpm changes are fun once you learn them but they are the ultimate coin grab bs
Just look at over the period lmao

>>15361948
BPM changes would be fine if Konami had any idea what fucking subtlety meant.

How long does it take for dj dao to ship the controllers?

>>15361887
There is nothing wrong with Healing-D-Vision.

>>15362011
Other than the first 2/3 only existing to make it harder to do well on at slower speeds.

>>15362036
It's not hard to read at all.

>>15362036
Kids these days. Back in my day, 1x vivid was the only option.

>>15362077
>Kids these days will never hang towels over the monitor to simulate hidden+
Smgdh

>tfw didn't FC Close the World Hyper for one single mistake

Goddamnit, at least I got the AA. But man, I never actually Full Comboed a song, ever.

>>15361887
Gotta get güd.

But seriously, I think reading speed changes is just a new skill set to learn.

>>15361995
2-3 weeks apparently, not speaking from experience (too poor) just reiterating from what i've read

>>15361887

Songs like Chaos and Fascination eternal love mix are fun. You just have to do a little memorization.

>>15362423
This iibh

>tfw sp-trip machine smm will never be in arcades

>tfw arms covered in bruises from all the anger
I hate this game, I really do.

>>15363950

God damn anon just fucking relax
i know i'm on /jp/ but that's some next level autism

>>15363950
popn?

>>15364626

IIDX

From bashing my controller

My FP7

Which I already destroyed

And rebuilt with real wood so now it's damn near indestructible

But I'll never learn this and will keep hurting only myself

>>15364640
How do you get mad at a rhythm game? There's no AI to blame.

>>15364648

Just uncontrolled outbursts at the idea of not being as good as I think I should be.

Coupled with an intensely deep love for the game and the genre as a whole and the music therein, it makes for a largely self-deprecating, negative reinforcement based feedback style.

I want so badly to be good at this game and I know deep down I never will be and it's literally the last thing I could ask for in my sad life. It's all I got left.

>>15364676
It's literally just a video-game. Anon, either get better hobbies, or accept that this is just pathetic.

>>15364739

Don't compare IIDX to "Video games"

IIDX is a way of life. Video games are a past time that you partake in.

Nobody who is good at IIDX is good at anything else (not music games).

That's just how it is.

>>15364676

stop taking it so seriously man, you'll never be dolce

>>15364783

>you'll never be dolce

Brutal.

>>15361995
I just got mine yesterday, it arrived in less than a week, I live in AUS though

What the fuck are you supposed to do when you get long notes on the scratch wheel?
Scratching back and forth kills me on hard guage

>>15365750

backspin scratch is supposed to be spun continuously in one direction

you could just throw it really hard and let it spin on momentum (doesnt really work on a home controller though)

>>15365902
This FP7 has no momentum whatsoever
I figured it out eventually, it's actually pretty cool
Are there harder charts that rely on you being able to throw it real hard?

>>15365977
turntable on arcarde cabinets are usually very light, ive seen dolce do that in one of his videos, i forgot which song though...

>>15365750
>>15365902
Spun continuously in one direction, then spun in the opposite direction at the end of the scratch.

Now if you actually played the tutorial when you first started the game you would know this.

>>15366428
LR2 has no tutorial :^)

What is "CS style song select" and "CS style song delay"?

>>15366428

you dont really have to spin it other direction at the end. stopping the spin also counts

>>15366586
see >>15349554

Not sure about song-select.

>>15366586
>>15366605
probably the counter when you are picking a song tbqh

I post far too much in these threads.

I'm responsible for at least 40-45 posts in this thread alone. I try to change up my formatting style occasionally so you guys don't know.

CS song delay is the limitation on how long you can change lift/sud/etc settings on the song before it starts playing, right?

I think enabling that lets you alter it forever as long as you hold Start down.

I don't play AC at home, I don't know.

>>15366991

Same, and I always make the thread

>>15366991
OR you can post less.

>>15367068

I'm not saying it's a problem, I'm saying it's a deep dark secret that I must keep from my fellow rhythm gamers.

Tough crowd

To the guy that goes apeshit he can't get good, what level do you play and how long have you been playing IIDX?

>>15368113

I can only assume you are talking about me.

I play mostly 10s or 11s. After a good long warm up I play 11s.

I can almost never pass them. And the thought of doing worse in regards to scoring on a song I'd never pass anyways is fucking antagonizing.

Sends me into an unstoppable fucking rage.

I only end up hurting myself though. Nothing I can do hurts my controller. All there is is pain.

>>15368155
It's time to stop.

>>15368155
Can you at least pass the easy 11s like Miracle Meet, Afro Knuckle, Elisha, etc?

If you keep throwing yourself at hard 11s like Flower you'll just kill yourself with frustration.

Elisha is retarded. I've passed Nemesis and HC Take it Easy, yet still can't do Elisha.

>>15367065
Please choose a better image next time. This one is hard as fuck to find while scrolling through the catalog. It's got a terrible balance of being plain, but with just enough going on that it doesn't catch the eye for being plain.

>>15368626
why the fuck are you not just searching

>>15368626
You could just add this thread to the watchlist you know.
