I actually played at a tournament recently and they had a side tournament for IIDX that used 400g switches and the songlist was jack songs like macho gang, alien temple, DXY etc.
It was pretty fun, and still somewhat playable

If I were to use a ps1 to play stuff like pop'n and ddr would a scart cable and an under $50 hdmi converter be low enough on delay? Or is the expensive shit like framemeister the only option?

>>18710706
Why don't you get a crt? It's cheaper and the easiest solution.

>>18710706
pick up a free crt on craigslist retard

if you want a nice one you might have to spend $10

>>18710742

>no not that free solution that actually works, i want to spend money and still have the game play like shit, but just also as little as possible

ok lol

>>18710786
I don't know if it works, that's why I was asking. I assume it doesn't then.

>>18710798
i haven't personally used a hdmi -> scart converter or anything like that but i do not see why the display wiring used would actually make playing rhythm games designed for SD on a modern tv work any better, the issue lies in the tv itself

>>18710805

hori made a good wii tatacon once but it had a short run and costs a fuckbunch now. and unless they make an adapter to use wii tatacons with switch or PS4 you'll be stuck playing old games anyway.

>>18714694

No better than a regular wii one. Don't misinform people. If you don't believe me - look up youtube videos with people clearing oni 10s with it.

What do we think about SDVX

>>18716232
Rasis is a cute

>>18716232
its one of the easier rhythm games to get into at a "high" skill level and while it is fun the gimmicks to it can only entertain for so long. Or on the other side of the coin. Fuck you lmao its garbage just get good and play iidx

>>18716232
We think that you should think for yourself. Watch a video and decide whether the gimmick and the gameplay is something for you.

Anyone else get the free PUR on SDVX?

>tfw 9th dan and 0 12 clears

That 9th dan feel.

>>18716249
>its one of the easier rhythm games to get into at a "high" skill level
To be honest, it's just a stupid visual trick to gratify casuals. If they actually rated charts more fairly, the distribution of difficulty and the skill curve would look very similar to IIDX.

>>18716249
sdvx is particularly normie friendly compared to iidx even though it has the same amount of inputs. ergonomically it's also easier to start out with for most people, but at the end it's the less fun game.
>>18716242
a slut, but a cute slut

>>18716273
I agree with that entirely. Once you really figure out how to 1 hand 3 keys that's it. You rocket through walls. I would like to see harder maps, but I doubt they're really gonna stretch the limits anytime soon. Im really liking with Haven they've brought in 16-20s. But some of those 20s feel lack luster.

>>18716232
Fun game, good music, but visually atrocious with camera mechanics that make reading the equivalent of level 10 charts in IIDX as hard as reading 12s. I'd play it more if the timing windows were tighter so I don't play like shit when I go back to IIDX though.

>>18716090
is there any reason you're blogging about being a forgetful fuck anon

I love it unironically. The song, the charts, the BGA, they’ve all got an unforgettable charm.

I finally decided to get into iidx after years of playing djmax, bought a fully memed dao and installed sinobuz with omninix.
Now there are literally over a thousand of songs and I feel lost. Not to mention I can barely pass lvl7 charts.
What do?

Difficulty overhaul in iidx fucking when?

>>18716536
Play the fucking game.
And buckle your belts since you're gonna get fucked endlessly

>>18716536

>>18716543

>>18716597
because 12s are all over the place

>>18716597
it's plausible to expand 10-12 into 10-15 at least

CS songs are BMS converts and they play like aids and are varying levels of off sync and poorly timed

but idk enjoy eating shit I guess

I don't even use omnimix dude calm down sperg

Anyone's arcade got the new Groove Coaster 4 upgrade yet?

>>18717776
Yes it is fun enough but I'd rather play djmax since 2 inputs on ds4 is kinda boring.
Also if you can get tatacon for a reasonable price go for it.

No.
The only converters that work fine for rhythm games are OSSCs because they operate per-scanline and dont add any lag other than your screens native amount.

After playing mostly pop'n recently I genuinely believe it to be a harder game than IIDX, if only by a smidge.

>>18719369
mm sort of, ps2 IIDX from 9th style on is interlaced, so even in the case of the OSSC you still have to use the bob deinterlacer which adds 1frame latency

>>18719548
its a lot harder than iidx sp imo

>>18721536
You can't really use random unless you want meme chords like 1-4-9 or something.

>>18718130
I don't know. I'll take the convenience of not needing to go back to older styles to play removed.

And you fags already go "HDD doesn't count anyway...". Why have this extra layer of autism over omnimix?

>>18721704
someone post the image that shows you how to hit that, I can't find it in my folder

beatmania IIDX is a fun game

How do I get itg form?

>>18722344
minimize movement, step on the inner edge of the pads with the edges of your feet, acquire baby powder

>>18722344
the pads need to be good or you just won't even trigger the panels, but otherwise try to use as little movement as possible and hug the center panel while hitting the arrows with toes/heels/the sides of your feet. wear socks (multiple pairs of socks can help with discomfort) or low profile shoes with a bit of baby powder.

>>18722130

Which mode do I pick in iidx? I've always done standard, idk how the other models are different

>Tfw you finally have a home arcade

:)

Did any of you go to the soft opening for Round 1 GLM?

Also, Theatrhythm AC was a real big letdown. I loved the 3DS version but the input for AC is atrocious.

>>18723628
Step up mode is basically practice mode, you get three stages guaranteed, and all the songs are around your skill level.
Class/段位認定 mode lets you play courses to measure your skill, and your rank determines certain things such as what songs you can play on stage 1 and 2 or what difficulty songs you get in step up
Free mode gives you two stages guaranteed with no difficulty limits (three stages if there's two players)
Premium free lets you play any amount of songs for a certain amount of time, you can only pay with Paseli though so JP/data only.
Expert gives you four song courses to play, not much reason to play this other than to grind unlocks.

>>18723628
heres a list of all the courses in sp class mode by version https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/19KC33a52J1Urr4PgbpwgberL9nsRL6dVdPj5G7ucRgQ/pub?output=html

Where's the best place to get a Taiko's drum for the nintendo wii?

Is there any other rhythm games where the notes make a sound from the music like DJMax? Not like physical button sounds but they're like instruments from the music.

>>18724329
term you're looking for is keysounding

and yes
beatmania kind of invented it
so it's in IIDX, also (most of) pop'n

>>18724337
Oh cool. I think that's one of the main things I like about DJmax. Thanks for the term.

>>18723872
So most people in Arcades play Free Mode?

>>18724500
no because playing with someone else is actually way more annoying than it sounds, iidx song picks are dependent on a lot of factors and it can be tough to pick 3 songs that make two players happy with their set and not just having them be better off playing separate credits of standard

>>18724509
At what rank lets you pick any song from any difficulty in standard? Kaiden?

>>18724511
it's based on playcount as well. i'm 9dan and have sub-100 plays on cb and i can pick 10s first stage

why do people play hdd data for older games and ps2 versions when they got access to the latest release? just for fun?

>>18724654
experiencing the interfaces of older games can be fun.

>>18723872
Step up doesn't have the new songs though. It's also great for unlocking Qpro parts.

>>18724500
I personally tend to play Free Mode more often because nothing sucks more than picking something you think shouldn't be a problem for 1st song and then fail it. In the early months of the release though I tend to stick to standard so that I can more efficiently re-earn DJ points on easy stuff. It's just something I personally like to do.

>>18724654
HDD for older mixes: to experience old timing and option limitations for 9th, 10th, and RED-DistorteD.

CS: play songs using the UI, options, and limitations for each mix. Also fun to compare personal scores to old VJA/SSS scores, using the same games and constraints they did. Also the scores and lamps are saved on a memory card and not dependent on an emulated game server, having less chance of disappearing.

Source: mainly play the CS games nowadays, going through each style 1 by 1

How do I git gud on this game?

>>18729963
If that is you playing then you need to get good at 6key before 8

>>18729992
That's me playing, yes. I had the impression that 8B wasn't significantly harder than 6B. Or rather, there are quite a few songs whose 6B maps are the hardest.

Is playing 4B is mistake? It's fun and I can actually play much harder songs, but I feel like getting too used to it makes it harder for me to improve using the 6B an 8B schemes.

>>18730007
8b isnt that much harder but you aren't good at the regular 6b yet as you are missing notes and have poor accuracy on notes that aren't the bumpers. playing 4b isn't a mistake, just play whatever is the most fun for you and focus on accuracy.

>>18730022
I see. I always heard from shmup players that playing on Easy is detrimental because you become used to exploiting things that don't happen on high difficulties, and I figured this was a similar concept.

I am pretty good at Project Diva but DJMax feels very frustrating, mostly because I'm not improving at the speed I expected to.

>>18730039

I wanted to start playing 2dix/LR2 today because the only rhythm game I play is deresute, and it's reaching "too easy" territory. After I got past the visual disconnect of playing on keyboard I started getting hit with the 3+-notes-at-once stuff, and my keyboard is 15 years old and doesn't let me press more than 2 keys at a time. Anyone have any recommendations for an okay dirt cheap mechanical keyboard? The haptic feedback and noise is pretty gratifying compared to a shitty touchscreen but I don't wanna shell out for a turntable unless I end up really liking the game.

Beginning today, I'm going to quit playing every music game, but Osu.

With Osu, the music selection is as wide as you want it to be through downloading charts. However, with other music games, they are limited by licenses meaning that the Japanese version of certain music games will have songs that the US versions don't.

The community in other music games is filled with degenerates that cause drama and thrive off it whereas all Osu players want to do is play the game and spam XD. Other music game players also care more about their scores and e-peen than they do about the people in said community. However, It's a good time all around when you're around the Osu community since they like sharing their charts with one another and give constructive feedback with them.

Also, the gameplay in Osu is fun since you can choose a few ways of playing it and with the default game, hearing the sound of hitting notes is incredibly satisfying. With other music games however, you don't get as satisfied with hitting the notes since they rarely make a sound when you hit notes.

I want to thank everyone who became friends with me in the arcade music game community especially those who were very understanding when I mentioned this to them. I hope everyone who reads this will understand how I feel in the matter.

>>18745538
Thank you for playing.

if you cant hit those rolls you would probably not even get past perditus beginning in kaiden lmao or even clear 10dan because of missing cookie rolls

>>18745047

if im just playing a few rounds to prevent being rusty, no

if I'm about to play a long, in depth session to try and clear new things or get better scores, a double espresso AT LEAST is required

and probably an iced coffee later in the day to keep the session going as well

red bull and monster etc are detrimental to my play. only coffee. and caffeine doesn't help at all with DP, at least for me.

>DDR tournament for 'girls' only

gee i can see this going well

>>18745047
It helped me clear button heavy songs on SDVX to have a Monster or Red Bull on the ride there, but never during unless I planned to be at R1 longer than 10 hours.

>>18728247
Really good players who “static” wrist scratch usually do so just for straightforward or dense charts. When they play charts that have lots of rolls, jack patterns, or extreme irregularities they usually break form to get more EX out of them.

>>18728247
Watching a bunch of top rankers play and recently dolce's due tomorrow video taught me a lot about playstyles.
I had assumed for the longest time my fingers would eventually be able to hit something like a 1/3 + 2 roll but in a lot of situations you have to just move your hands to use both.
Playing scratch charts and using a hand only to scratch also helped me hit a wider range of chords with one hand, i don't know how wristfags do any of that shit

>>18746541

He said 10s, not 7s.

anyone who says stimulants don't help with clearing/comboing in rhythm games is retarded. this extends to things like adderall, meth, and coke as well

>>18747236
idola, kakumei hyper, verflucht, and day dream were my first 10s they should be fairly easy. The last song being there because the ending is just a really easy stream

Not fair I want to have more time to practice.

>>18749021
i know that feel lad and its most likely because these turbonerds spend all their free time playing iidx while i play like 3 times a week because i dont feel like playing every day

>>18749565
Would be nice to have that much motivation. I don't think I've ever played IIDX for a week straight and I don't even have anything better to do.

>>18749565
i just have other shit to do most of the time, can't keep up with these neets

how do i hit scratch+1+3+5+7

>>18750028
If you're static, stop doing it and just scratch with your left hand and hit the 4 buttlns with the right then go back to your stance super fast.

Fuck. Derusting sucks AAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Just want to lush buttons and have a good time bjt when your accuracy is off you just get upset.

>>18750384
Yep. It'll make you want to kill yourself. Especially when you see your old scores.

Then again I always end up better than ever after it's over.

Djmax Respect could easily be best rhythm game on console right now if they implemented that 10 button mode and that meme semi Technika mode from the latest DLF to all songs.

There's already a lot of content but with that it'd be nuts.

>>18752815
it's already the only good rhythm game on console, but yeah it would be really cool if those modes were both available regularly

>>18752829
>it's already the only good rhythm game on console
>what is CS IIDX

>>18753646
the original post said right now so i thought that was implied. the only competition is some worthless bullshit like rayark's latest or project diva or superbeat xonic

>>18753646
PS2 IIDX was great for its time. That time was 10 years ago.

>>18753680
PDFT and Taiko are up there too. But you they can't compete with almost flawless DJMAX vsrg gameplay stolen from iidx in terms of difficulty and keysounds.

>>18753835
Rhythm games don't age like other games do, though. CS Empress has more songs than Respect.

>>18753898
DJMax is based on O2Jam, and the gameplay and charting is vastly different from IIDX. Nothing here is stolen unless you're suggesting that Konami has a patent on keysounding and vertical scrolling, which would be fucking retarded.

>>18753935
>DJMax is based on O2Jam, and the gameplay is vastly different from IIDX

look i love djmax but it is a blatant ripoff of beatmania (o2jam is too)

>>18753898
taiko is worthless without an arcade drum and project diva is just a terrible game

Bang Dream's English version came out today. It's about as good as phone rhythm games get since DJ MAX RAY died ages ago.

>>18753962
>taiko is worthless without an arcade drum
I have a modded tatacon.
> project diva is just a terrible game
No, arcade version is not a terrible game by any means. It is even better with mini arcade controller for harder charts.

>>18753962
>project diva is just a terrible game
retard

>>18754197
Not that guy, but I'd actually rank Project Diva below osu and mobileshit. The mechanics are shovelware-tier uninspired and they don't even bother with any interesting gimmicks. And although this is tied to its premise, being locked to one style of music is a huge downside when you look at the variety that games like pop'n and IIDX present, and this is coming from someone who likes Vocaloid.

Playing DP is suffering

>>18754370

There's a restaurant near me that has a pop'n music 20 cabinet but it's set really fucking loud. As in it drowns out everyone else's conversations kind of loud. Is there anyone to lower the volume? I feel like such a jackass whenever I play.

>>18754370
I can't even play double on fucking 5key

>>18754604
Someone who works there would have to open it up.

>>18754759
Fuck. I doubt they know how to do that. Do you know if pop'n cabinets have an headphone jack and if sound could be adjusted that way?

>>18754766
Afaik you'll only see a headphone jack if it was manually installed, which would be really obvious and I doubt a restaurant would do that.

Someone else could probably give you better specifics but I think you just open it up in the front and the volume control isn't too hard to find.

>>18754800
Fuck, I'll see if I can get them to at least attempt to open it up. If they won't bother I'll play the stupid moe and denpa songs at full volume until I scare away enough of their clientele and then they'll have to try. Thanks for the help.

is there any vocaloidgaze in the diva games?

>>18754759

I suck super hard at double mode on IIDX but I love 10-key double in old school beatmania. The song list is cool enough that even flailing around on double charts is fun.

>>18754604
Play MVA now

how do I get started with bms? should I even bother? I only have a few 10 clears in iidx

>>18755402

at that level it's not worth it to attempt the insane scale bms, even the low scale one. but downloading the djmax bms packs would fit perfectly with that skill level and give you alot of new and different stuff. bms of fighters has enough low level stuff you could enjoy as well. but no, at that level you couldnt really touch the insane scale bms most people are referencing when they reference "bms"

>>18753935
>CS Empress has more songs than Respect
The base Respect has more songs that the Empress Disc and even the largest pop'n CS games. The DLCs are analogous to Premium Best. The only reason why the base game wasn't just DJMAX omnimix at launch is because PS4 has a cap on how large the size of a single download is allowed to be and Clazziquai would've kicked up the price to $70 USD instead of a modest $50 that gives a good bank for your buck.

>DJMax is based on O2Jam
DJMax Online's closed alpha was back in June 2004, 8 months before O2jam. I'm not sure if O2Jam had an earlier build made private or public because chronological information on music games that aren't Bemani is scarce or isn't available in English, which makes crediting songs to either Clazziquai/Black Square or Technika 1 unless you go through any and all videos available of Technika's location test or korean message board archives from mid-2008.

>>18752815
I hope they make the mission mode charts a special mode later down the road. Between XB, 4FX, 6FX, and TB, there's enough to warrant having them available in Freestyle. Also difficulty level sorting when.

Is there a way to restart song in iidx?

>>18756211

if you're on premium free press and hold effect + vfx

>>18756075
I hope the game keeps selling. The new modes might become a thing when they finish the DLC songs.
But I wonder how much they'd charge for it. It's too much work for a free update but also not shiny and exciting enough for the casual part of the fanbase to justify paying a lot for it.

Many new players are aleady intimidated by 8B.

>>18756377
But it quits the song and not restarts it.

>>18756438
Keep holding the buttons.

>>18756438
its kinda annoying you really have to hold them for a long time. keep holding the buttons until you see the gameplay ui coming back, if you let go earlier it can just dump you at the score screen

you can also hold the buttons and press the white key on the score screen tho

>>18754197
dude it's so fucking bad holy shit

even if you -love- the music the gameplay is just atrocious. the difficulty is entirely in the arcane manner the notes are presented in.

why do daos feel so much shittier to play on compared to cab

>>18757175
People actually play Project Diva for the gameplay?
I thought the whole point was to jack off to slutty underage androids.

>>18757219
because you didn't buy good buttons and switches and appropriate springs.

No, sadly. I wish they'd put whoo in.

Is persona 4 dancing all night fun and worth getting if I haven't played Persona 4?

>>18758429
Never played it but I heard it's a rhythm game made by people who don't know what they're doing.

It's mostly fanservice for P4fags. Think Senran Kagura Bon Appetit.

>>18758429
No.

>>18757865
How old is your pc? my pc is extremely shitty and it can run HD sinobuz just fine

>>18758649

probably because you're not running timebase first to sync it properly

>>18758881
good meme

I'm really new to rhythm games, and I started with Osu
Why does it get so much hate? It just seems like an accessible platform for certain rhythm categories.
Other than that what games are good to get into after an introduction like this? I mostly play o!mania by the way

>>18759286
Bms
Iidx

>>18759286
Osu has a shit scoring system that's 99.9% combo and 0.1% accuracy. The health system is retarded with the constant drain meaning you can be waiting out a dead period when you die. All the content being made by the community means that everything about it is wildly inconsistent, from the presentation, to the timing of the notes, and how interesting the song is to play in general. Also the IIDX-like mode that Osu has is complete garbage.

>>18759525
im mostly playing the iidx emulator thingy
i can agree that osu standards rating system is absolutely retarded

>>18759571
>iidx simulator

Why not, idk, play IIDX instead?

>>18759525
i like the community made aspect desu
works well with itg charts

>>18759576
I have heard that lunatic rave 2 is really hard to get set up, and I have nothing else to play actual iidx on.

>>18759586
You have a computer, don't you?

>>18759582
That only mostly worked out because of the arcade machine aspect of it keeping things in line. Raw StepMania with their "keyboard" charts is almost as bad as Osu.

>>18759571
>>18759576
or an actual IIDX emulator, like LR2, rather than an aborted o2j ripoff

>>18759589
yeah

what springs does ERm use on their cabs? i know they have 50g switches

>>18759745
for iidx i mean

>>18759286
it's just not better than any of the other options. there's no reason to play it. it's at the bottom of the ladder, if you will.

>>18759745
they feel like 50/60 to me, but probably pretty worn down

>>18756433
I think it will just be added in an update in the future as fanservice for those who have unlocked and attempted their respective missions. I really want to learn how to read TB but I really don't want to spam the first mission repeatedly until I eventually stop getting wrecked by the rest of the second half of the Technika missions and there's nothing analogous to Skyscraper for TB charts.

>>18758429
Even if you have played P4 the game is still shit.

>>18759745
25g switches with worn down 100g springs
the 100g springs are worn enough to the point where they feel like 60g instead

>>18759286
Try k shoot mania, it's pretty fun, though you'll want to get a controller at some point.

>>18759586
Beatoraja is currently in development, but is way easier to set up than lr2 and works alright. Looks like shite without any skins, though. But it's a good entry point to setting up bms if you're intimidated by lr2's setup.

>>18759586
lunatic rave 2 isn't so much "hard to set up" as "it might work effortlessly the first time or it might take you thousands of hours of troubleshooting just to get a different flavor of error message"

What's wrong with keyboard stepmania charts?

>>18754335
>being locked down to one style of music
Vocaloid isn't a style of music, they're just synthesized voices. The songs available in PDA encompass pretty much every non-meme genre you can think of.

>>18739233
Lucky Patcher.

>>18763784
You would be lying to yourself if you insisted that this stuff actually has this much variety that literally anyone would differentiate by genre. Vocaloid is Vocaloid, and 90% of the songs in Project Diva games consist of very similar sounding jpop that at best has a few minor twists to its instrumentals to make it sound unique.

Not only that, but for a game that only has like 40 songs, there are a lot of repeating artists, like ryo, wowaka and livetune. And they generally stick to one style of music.

>>18762083
the autistic black guy at my r1 just plays iidx with expand judge on

>>18764588
>for a game that only has like 40 songs
Future Tone has over 200 songs.

>>18764599

>>18764606
The majority of iidx house/techno and edm crap sound the same.

>>18764599
I won't deny that the arcade version has _more_ variety, but I still don't think it's enough. I really like Vocaloid a lot, but I can't listen to it for hours on end.

>>18764611
t. literally never heard a song before lincle

Please, let's not even go there. That's wrong, and you know it, or you've never played IIDX ever.

i like vocaloid songs but i hate the voices

>take 2 weeks off from play a rhythm game

I think dimming the background is making the notes in Respect not scroll as smoothly. Am I going crazy?

>>18764588
>You would be lying to yourself if you insisted that this stuff actually has this much variety that literally anyone would differentiate by genre.
No I actually wouldn't be. Who would listen to ヒビカセ and PIANO＊GIRL and say they're the same genre?

The problem with vocaloid is that most of the songs in project diva has the same singer's voice. Sure, you have 200+ songs for project diva arcade but 188 has miku's voice so, you're listening to her voice that many times.

play easy shit like chirachira harahara and just find your timing. watch your f/s and mess with your gn and offset until you start getting more comfortable hitting pgreats. play easy stuff like crossroad, fly above, chrono diver fragment, innocence of silence, mermaid girl remix.

its natural to not be able to time if youve never worked on it, clearing and timing are related but you can be amazing at one and still pretty bad at the other

>>18765932
It requires a premium course subscription.

>>18765778
hit hard, but not like, just smashing the fucking keys, your keytaps should be quick and crisp

make sure your offset is good (hitting a pgreat makes the keytap noise line up pretty close with the beat of the music)

play simple stuff like normal 5s and 6s or maybe like chord 9s and 10s (crossroad, colorful cookie hyper, super rush hyper, etc.)

once you learn how to hit pgreats at all, you can expand that ability to a wider range of charts and techniques, but you have to learn how to actually make yourself hit a pgreat intentionally first.
