What framerate do IIDX games run on? I play on (((AC data))) and wondering if I'm missing out on anything with a 60hz monitor

[Anonymous No.]

>>16768408
I think it's just 60Hz

[Anonymous No.]

>>16768408
Just 60hz

Running it at 120hz literally halves the timing windows IIRC

[Anonymous No.]

60Hz. Run the games on anything higher and it fucks up the timing windows.

Made progress on Tuneism. I can import SM (stepmania pre-5.0) maps for testing now. It supports normal notes, bpm changes, and stops. I chose stepmania files since they aren't keysounded and would be easier to support earlier on in development.

Once I make a better file selector (in mobile you can't select a folder to change to from the list, that's why my sm file was at the top of storage), I'll be ready to add real features.

This is a Chunithm clone of sorts, right...? If so, you should make some sort of script that turns any 16th notes notes next to eachother into a sort of... one of those long holds where you move within the hold, sort of like lazers for SDVX. Might make it more fun.

[Anonymous No.]

>>16769098
I'll consider it when I'm adding polish to the game, but right now stepmania import is literally just for testing purposes, I needed a way to get maps without first implementing an editor.

[Anonymous No.]

>>16769112
Yeah, fair enough. If you're looking to make importable SM maps a real, viable thing, though, you'll want to have a bunch of(preferably optional)scripts that will change the way the chart works. Otherwise you're basically just playing SM and there's no reason not to just open that instead. Of course, you can cross that bridge when you come to it.

Btw, if you alt tab during the monitor sync, it messes up the timings and sometimes you end up with 1/2 speed maps. Makes for easy dan clearing if you're a dirty cheater.

[Anonymous No.]

>>16769853
I can understand being skeptical about new users having high scores but it's hard to say they aren't legit just from that. Someone could have just played IIDX/LR2 for years before getting invited to sows. I guess the people who don't participate in the community actively get ignored, which I guess kind of works in a way. Since if you're going to brag about your high level scores, chances are someone's probably going to try to question your legitimacy along the way, and then you're in trouble if you can't prove it.

>>16769901
Seriously just get K-Shoot. It's basically the same thing with better and faster home options, ability to play community-made songs in addition to the real SDVX shit, and without story and generator shit. An SVSE5 will work exactly the fucking same on K-Shoot than it will on the real thing.

I have k-shoot but I'm scared to download any of the maps that got converted on sows because I don't want to ruin my ratio before I even get to download arcade data

also it's still 90 mother fucking dollars to ship an svse5

should I just wait for the turbocharger+ to get restocked or is that expensive to ship as well

[Anonymous No.]

>>16770089
I got you. I have a bunch of the SDVX shit that some Google fags made a while back. Not sure if it it's ALL the songs, but it should be most of them, I think... Folder count in the 3 packs(SDVX, II and GW)is 168, 319 and 66 respectively.

I'll upload them to Mega, but be patient. My hard drive is being eaten like fuck since I'm backing up a ton of shit at the moment, so it might take a while to both compress and upload it. Give me an hour or so.

As a side note, these were made from before K-Shoot was able to do out-of-lane lazers as in GW, so you won't be seeing any of that in these packs unfortunately.

[Anonymous No.]

>>16770089
Also in regards to the Turbocharger, maybe? It's really up to you regarding how long you're willing to wait. What I'd heard is that the knobs on the SVSE5 are not that good and go full retard after like a week of use or something. You might try looking or asking around on Sows to see what people with one think of it to see if it's worth your money or not.

[Anonymous No.]

>>16770164
Gonna take longer than I thought, probably another hour or so.

Also, where is that torrent with SDVX stuff on sows? I looked for it, but couldn't find it. I may deign to get it and replace my current stuff with it due to lack of out-of-lane lasers and potential incompleteness.

i want to buy a controller and play something at home. Which game is easier to setup on PC? sdvx or iidx?

[Anonymous No.]

I'm trying to make a Wooden Dancepad to play BEMANI games, using a usb keyboard, i tried a Numeric keypad as a spanish guide said, but the keyboard i got had what that guide calls 'a chip' and so i cant make the numpad work, the pad is not recognized once i make tests, neither with the configs or the windows device utilities

I tried to use a USB gamepad too, but the config files of many of the games doesnt recognize the controller either

is there a recommended modern numpad/keyboard model that i can use for this project?, i plan to use this on a Win10 installation preferably, but i want it to work in win7 too.

[Anonymous No.]

>>16773224
Depends. KSM is probably easier to setup than LR2, and SDVX is just generally easier to get into.
HDD wise, both are about the same but we don't talk about that here

[Anonymous No.]

>>16773362
If you already have a gamepad, try joy2key for remapping the gamepad to key presses.

You could use an Arduino Leonardo for the "keyboard", they're pretty easy to work with, work out of the box with windows 7/8/10 and you can get n-key rollover support with up to 2 easy mouse axis. I guess you could also emulate a gamepad so that you could have more axis and buttons, but I haven't bothered with that. I've gotten it to work with both sdvx and iidx. Should work with DDR too, though I haven't tried it. DDR only uses key presses, right?
The only downside is that you'll have to upload the code to the board yourself, and while it's not hard and there are millions of tutorials for that, it can be intimidating. Can you tell more about how the controller is right now? Does windows recognize it?

[Anonymous No.]

>>16773848
well, the windows packed-in utilities do recognize the controller and the connection and button tests work.

but for some reason its not recognized at all in the BEMANItools config utilities.

the weirdest thing about this is that the very same controller worked perfectly before opening it and tearing it up.

and about the Joy2Key idea, i'm gonna try it, how could i have forget that tool exists?...

Yes, many maps only have the exh/grv charts since those are the ones that anyone playing for more than a few months (read: the people that actually bother mapping these things) plays. You'll go through stages 1-12 so fast, there really isn't any reason to map them all.

[Anonymous No.]

>>16783297
well lunatic rave 2 has two main timing settings for charts, easy and hard

easy is slightly more lenient than iidx
hard is slightly harder
most charts will be set to easy, which means that you can be in for a bit of a rude awakening when going from LR2 to arcade or console iidx. it's still a perfectly fine tool to learn with though.

as for songs:

between this public folder
http://dl.free.fr/AF40Mw/BMShare?F=658636

and this site
http://bms.bemaniso.ws

you should be able to find enough content to keep you entertained for a long time

as for controls, you can play on keyboard just fine, or you can get an ASC (arcade style controller)

I actually have a shit ton of buttons to work with, but since I suck at the game, I left them out on purpose. Having more buttons only confuses me at this point when hitting buttons to the far left during a 5 Key song on a 7 Key layout.

I also wanted to ask if up and down on the turntable matters. I only popped one button in and it has been working so far, just wondered if there is ANY reason to have both directions mapped and usable.

This might be true, but I have to admit that Sows is nonetheless actually a pretty good community with a lot of resources and effort put into it in general. It's not only arcade data and PSun/2 you can get, they have GST releases, Bemani artist albums, alternative rhythm games, marketplace, in-site streaming service, events, comprehensive, unified and non-convoluted as fuck lists of game files(BMS, omnimixes, etc. etc.), the list goes on and on. It's a nice thing to be a part of in general that gives you good options if you take the games any more seriously than casual level.

Wait for freeleech desu. The site is pretty inactive most of the time until freeleech and then it's a fucking frenzy. Nobody downloads anything between freeleech unless you already have plenty of up. Which, most of the time, you need to already have a good library of games to seed and freeleeches experienced(and seeded). Yeah, it sucks starting out in sows. It's fairly difficult to get any ratio when you don't have anything you can seed.

Not even kidding, I downloaded like 400 gigs of shit during the week of freeleech for the 10th anniversary, seeded it for the last half of the week, and got 200 gigs of up. It's all about the freeleech. Keep your eyes peeled for that shit. Most of them only last for a day.

Unironically there is an osu client for android, but I heard it sucks. And that any maps for it have to be made specifically for it, so you can't just import anything from the standard client's huge song base. I dunno if any of that's changed, last time I read/heard about it was a few years ago.

But if you're looking for rhythm games for the phone, your options are pretty limited and none of them are very good so far as I know.

Why hasn't this just been renamed Bemani general

[Anonymous No.]

>>16809745
I mean, Bemani has a pretty massive influence on the rhythm game industry as a whole. It's somewhat niche in general and Konami has a vice grip on the industry especially in Japan. Most other games are either carbon copies of their games or too small to have much of a fanbase, and by extension not extrapolated on much(e.g. song library, game options, general programming etc.). Konami tends to strangle anything that they can that's zoning too close to their own territory that they can justify copyright issues over, such as EZ2DJ and ITG, so you're going to need to be somewhat creative if you want to make something original, or copy something else that's dead and just get lucky. Now that I think of it, osu! has to be probably the only game outside of Japan that has been highly successful. Perhaps Guitar Hero and other similar GH clones too are somewhat successful, but they're more limited since it's a corporate game, so they're far more limited in library, overall difficulty and etc. while osu! is community-based and sees all sorts of songs, updates, added game modes and all that shit.

Anyway, it's kind of hard to deny the massive influence Bemani has on the rhythm game industry as a whole, so that Bemani games would be talked about more often than not is not that surprising.

Yes. Basically all I did through middleschool was play stepmania on a shitty laptop keyboard for hours on end.

I feel bad for you. I know a guy who did that with osu and can't play anymore. Made me more cautious about overdoing it since I realized I'd probably wanna kill myself if I couldn't play anything.

One thing I can say with confidence, at least, is that playing higher keycounts is physically easier at the same note densities. If you haven't learned to play LR2 or other high keycount home rhythm games(o2jam, osumania, etc.)I'd give them a go. Maybe you can play them more without giving yourself as many problems.

K-Shoot Mania on keyboard could be a good choice too. Having to use all 10 keys is less likely to be too stressful and unless you're playing 15's or above you should probably be fine.

Also Solo in stepmania could probably be okay, there are some keyboard packs for that floating around. But really, the more keys there are the better off you probably are physically IMO.

Thats so weird. I was just talking to someone and they brought up K-Shoot Mania. I saw gameplay with the controller, but I'm not sure I could wrap my head around playing that with a keyboard. Still not even sure how the game works really.

[Anonymous No.]

>>16812244
Keyboard play is counter-intuitive as fuck, and that's forgetting the fact that K-Shoot and SDVX are a mess to read. You can use a mouse for the lasers but that too is counter-intuitive since you can only use one last I checked, with X and Y axis each bound to a different laser. If you're on Sows, you can download SDVX and bind 2 mice's X axises to use lasers for that, and use the buttons/mouse wheel click for buttons. Still not the best ever, can be a little awkward, but better and more intuitive. Having to move your hands around with a real controller is probably going to be more physically difficult as well and I would probably avoid it if you're trying to refrain from giving yourself any more RSI. If you're shit at osu, you could play it casually although that's even worse for developing RSI so I wouldn't delve too deep into that. There's also DDR/PIU if you're willing to pick up a pad. Your hands aren't your feet so there's always that at least.

For me personally in K-Shoot using keyboard, and the way I feel makes the most sense, is ring and middle for white keys, stepmania-style, thumbs for FX(orange), and pinky/ring for moving lasers left and right. Be careful of your binds as 10 keys is a lot and you're likely to get ghosting issues, so beware.

[Anonymous No.]

>>16812300
I can't handle Osu at all. The meter drain on almost all the maps I downloaded when I tried it out were so unforgiving. I've never been all that great at mouse accuracy in the first place either.
I have a pretty decent metal dancepad but (please no bully) I got really fat and passed the recommended weight limit on it so I've been scared to use it since highschool. I'm down like 60 pounds now so I'm almost back under and that will probably be an option in the near future though.
Thanks for being so helpful. I'll probably try out K-shoot and see how much of a disaster playing on the keyboard is once my arms stop burning

[Anonymous No.]

>>16812244
Also, to verify, the white keys are all normal buttons to hit as you might expect. Orange(FX)are their own as well, however as they're in the same lane as the white reading them is kind of a pain. Lasers, the blue and pink hold-looking things that like to fly all over the field, are a sort of glorified hold. On keyboard, you basically hold the button in the direction it's going(you can let go when it's not moving in any direction if you want). For keyboard the process is digital; the computer will follow it as far as it goes, as quickly or as slowly as it goes, as long as you're holding the button; of course you have to switch direction once it starts moving another way. For mouse and controller, it's analog, I think; you have to move with the lasers, as slow or as fast as they may be going. There is some leeway here, though; you don't have to be 100% perfect about it, that would get pretty absurd.

As you can imagine the lasers parts are not really designed to be done with a keyboard, but you can say fuck it and do 'em anyway. Even if it's not designed to be played that way, the game is still pretty fun regardless. Despite it's flaws.

If you do play K-Shoot, I hope you like cutesy anime-esque shit, because you'll be getting a heaping of that and more.

Sure, you're welcome. Hope things work out for you. You might try hitting up your pad, too, since that's pretty much one thing you can be guaranteed to be able to use even if your arms end up becoming near-useless sacks of meat. Sounds like you could afford to lose some weight, too, so that's a good bonus as well.

[Anonymous No.]

>>16812340
The keyboard being digital was my main source of confusion. I assumed hitting the rotate button would just make it shoot in that direction super fast and I'd have to pay close attention to make sure I don't overshoot the turns. I'm glad thats not the case. (Hope that made sense. Probably sounds retarded)

>>16812348
At the rate I've been losing weight, I should be able to get back to the pad in a few months. I'm really excited.

Last thing, if you want a large amount of K-Shoot maps easily, check out this post: >>16770362

Just turn the mega link into mega.nz/ and throw that last part on it. That has gravity wars charts. The github link has SDVX and infinite infection charts. It's all charts remapped from Bemani songs from the actual games, so it's usually pretty good stuff.

Other than that, there's non-sdvx stuff out there. Some google searches may be able to help if you want/need more charts.

K-Shoot is a relatively new game, though, so don't get your hopes up to fill up your library with 10k songs like you can do with SM. But it should probably be enough.

[Anonymous No.]

>>16812349
Unfortunately, alt keys won't work in K-Shoot so you'll have to make some amends. My current setup is capslock qwe x for left hand, going from pinkie to thumb, and spacebar ,./ rightshift for right, for thumb to pinkie. It works, kind of. Depending on your keyboard it's possible to encounter ghosting problems, like I said, but this layout feels comfortable to me at least.

[Anonymous No.]

>>16812340
Mouse and controller are also "digital" in the sense that the game just cares about the turning direction, not speed. As long as the direction is right, it'll stay on the track.
Actual sdvx is the same too, but there you can rotate too fast and the game will stop registering the laser. But as long as you're turning the knobs within the speed range it allows (not extremely slow and not extremely fast), the game doesn't care how fast you turn.

>alt keys won't work in K-Shoot
This can be fairly easily bypassed with AutoHotKey. Probably pretty sub-optimal code, but here's my script for it:
https://hastebin.com/odojapixur.css
This runs the script and the game, and stops the script when you exit K-Shoot/press F4.

>>16817739
It's a crossover pattern, just left-right-left-right all the way through. A little fast for a 13 maybe but otherwise pretty reasonable, just git gud.

If you need to practice your crossover/double step tech at a lower bpm, dig up a bunch of Extreme and older charts and you'll find plenty.

I don't think you understand just how much I cannot do crossovers

I do usually play on an Extreme cab, and I literally can't even pass Kiss Kiss Kiss heavy, which is probably the easiest crossover chart in existence

But I guess if I absolutely have to, I probably only have a chance of doing it accurately with my right foot, so I'd hit all those down arrows with left and then just accept I'm probably going to miss one of the last three notes.

Feels real bad

[Anonymous No.]

>>16817798

Mmmmmaybe you should learn how to do crossovers? Left foot on left, right foot on down, left foot on right, continue alternating feet until the pattern ends. Like, turn your body to the right and do the thing until the end, when you plant your foot on left and turn back towards the machine to hit right with your right foot. These patterns are only going to get faster and more complicated as you progress up the difficulty levels, so you need to figure it out now.

Crossovers can use the up arrow too.

[Anonymous No.]

>>16821273

There isn't anything complicated to learn. You alternate feet every arrow and turn your body as necessary. In the pattern you posted you hit left with your left, turn your body to the right while hitting down with your right foot, and then swing your left leg across the pad to hit right with your left foot. Your right foot will be anchored on the down arrow as you move your left foot to hit the other arrows, until the last bit where you take your right foot off of down to hit right, and then hit the final down arrow with your left foot. It feels really weird to use so many words to explain this concept. If you started out using the bar and doublestepping everything while facing straight towards the screen, now is the time to stop doing that so you can train yourself to do this sort of thing properly.

its different for every version but (generally) always event based. for copula it was Mystery Line where you had to place songs in a certain "train line", now its Koujyo Sinobuz Den where you have to spend points you get from your normal 3 song play to defeat enemies in an RPG-style thing. once you defeat enough you unlock one difficulty of a song (sometimes all 3 at once)

but there are always some songs that you can only get through getting Extra Stage and One More Extra Stage. in the recent games, you can't get ES and OMES unless you're playing in Japan, even if you have paseli on your card, so you can't get these ones.
