Robertsoner beat me to it D:

PS: Finished Radiant Moonlight. Gets more intense as the song progresses.

I gave up on Oceans of Time and Disconnected Hazard. Fixed up Try to Star though. Also, what is the extent of the permission from Renard? (did he only give permission for Here We Go, or do we have permission to use his other songs?)

And anyone wanna help me with minor syncing problems?

I got permission for HWG from plaguefox, who is friends with Renard. I'll ask plague next time I talk to him.

Hey, question about making easy files. Is there anything I should consider with regards to the flow or specific patterns of an easy file once I've picked out my instruments? This is a stepmania art question, because I bonked out Tribe Attacker in no time flat and it doesn't feel right that I should spend so little time on it. (I implemented a locally consistent but wandering variant of pr, like if there was a melody going 3 13 12 I'd always pair the 3s and 1s on the same column even though it was basically 'shuffled' each time)

What I'm saying is, does anyone have an idea beyond the unfounded and intuitive about how low-level players like their files/how easy files should be structured?

A more specific question is: If you have 16ths leading into an obvious jump (cymbal crash or w/e) how should you decide which one takes precedence?

Thanks. I'll send you the file when I get back from school today. (I only need like 2-3 measures of syncing help, but they are driving me crazy >_>)

Well, as I sucked forever, the files I really liked back in the day were Platypus, Resurrection in Progress, Deep Breath and files like those. 16ths were fun as long as they were easy to hit. JS was practically impossible unless it was with (12) or (34) jumps. PR only mattered a little (repeated notes in the same pitch without notes jacking annoyed me but that might just be me).

Coming from DDR to FFR though might have had some impact on what I liked though, it's really hard to remember. So probably the most important thing to me was flow and fun.

Also, the thing is most people that aren't very good also don't post. So it's hard to get any decent feedback for questions like this. Maybe pad charts are more comparable to 'easy' charts. I mean, anyone can make a difficulty 1-4 but 5-7 is the harder range to keep in.

I'll send in some of my easier widget files for the batch so you can see how I did it lol...

To your last question I'd say as long as you make it a (12) or (34) jump it will still be relatively easy and you feel cool for being able to do it.

It depends on what style you're trying to make the file for. A spread file shouldn't have a tone of notes in a row on the same hand and should avoid 13 or 24 jumps (and preferably use 12/34s). An index file is best if you only have to move one finger to land in a jump (like 1 3 (14)). A one hand file would avoid (23)s and try to avoid that pattern in streams as well.

Think about your target audience and then make sure the file is simple for that playstyle.
