i added an index friendlier version to the one i sent you. guess i'll resubmit then

Awesome. I'll check it out after work tomorrow. Dunnow what happened there. Weird.

I musta missed it. I think there are several files actually that I've yet to review. Sorry for taking so long. I appreciate your patience.

At least, 5 first minutes are well synced. I checked that with DDReam and no great problems with that.

But the simile’s rejection was predetermined due to song choice (even with the cut). It’s not a bad song… just a bad song for stepmania. Try to pick something more interesting. It doesn’t have to be long. I personally would accept a file length like Classical Guitar Solo if it’s interesting/fun enough.

*edit* This is not to imply that I didn't look into the file anyways. I always spend a fair amount of time going through stuff.

Uhhh so ur saying if he accepts then u accept?

[Virus881]

Ok. I will send my simfile anyways... Anything is wrong, I'll make my best to fix it.

The song lasts about 13 minutes, but it's quite fun, not boring.

Haven't played it yet but major props on stepping a song that long. I'd go crazy =P.

His decision overrides mine.

i prefer long songs with hard steps.

Dear N.T.M. (I.E. new GLoVE) i love you.

[Virus881]

But most of metal files that deserve that length are full of surprises.

Also long songs like Metropolis pt.1, Master of Puppets, This Dying Soul and The Glass Prison (Shirogitsune's and Dukamok's versions) are not boring at all.

@NTM: I went crazy trying to syncing it perfectly, you'll not be the only one. xD

[SulferDragon]

Someone step the full version of Beyond This Life (and make it good). It's pretty much the only 10+ minute song I would want to play.

Yeah, though I'd only accept it if you had minor complaints, but if you're only rejecting it for pitch relevancy issues then I might accept it.

These reviews are a little old. Haven't checked the email recently.

Abstract Art - Accepted with some tweaks - I really hate this **** where every step is any other color but red or blue and the BPM changes every half of a measure. It's so chaotic that I can't tell whether or not what I played was good or bad. I think I liked most of it, but I definitely felt the last 20 measures were stepped poorly (both charts). It could be a lot better PR wise, but I don't care much about that.

Blazing Hate (again) - Accepted, kind of - I swear, every time you make a change to this something else ends up wrong. Well, screw it, I'll just fix it myself. If you don't mind that is.

Bodom After Midnight - sry - Already in the first pack, heeelllooooooo...

Eve of Seduction - Accepted with some tweaks - This file is fun, but it seems like you rushed over it and didn't feel like checking your work. Let's just say that almost every time you have 24th or 32nd bursts following the drums, they're innacurate in one way or another. Places like measure 88 shouldn't have those jump triplets (whatever), but should only have two jumps. The solo seemed good for the most part, but I think there were one or two errors. I don't know, I'm too tired.

Holy Wars - jksdfjksdg - Also in the first pack. Are you not even familiar with it? I actually played every single one of Melonman's files before I made it. Any of his files that I liked were already included in the first one. Maybe I missed one or two, but I don't think so.

I - Rejected - Wow, no offense, but this is awful. That's probably largely to blame on the wretched song choice. A minute into the song and it was repeating the exact same **** it had been since the beginning. HOLY CRAP! Who wants to play that?!

Not Alone - Needs work - Parts of this are ok, but other parts seem unfinished -- the drums should be layered in. I'm not saying a simfile has to be layered, but in this it seems empty. The jump placement is off at times (measure 37 as an example). Measure 132 shouldn't even have those jumps; it should be 16ths instead. Measure 139, 140 is also all wrong. More than anything, though, the solo is a mess. The two 16th streams are 12ths, the holds in measures 103, 104 shouldn't even exist, and there are a few other inaccuracies. I wouldn't call this bad, but it needs work.

Prepare for War - Accepted - Every version I play of this file seems better than the last. Every version also makes mine look even more ****ty. So, yeah, I guess it's good enough. The cut is garbage though.

Prison Born (v666) - Accepted - Kind of hard... we need more files like this.

Sacred Land (again) - Accepted - uh-huh

The Watchdog of Hell - Accepted - I fixed the sync. That small of a difference is hardly noticeable.

[Joe D]

Yeah all I need is Eve of Seduction and all my songs will be in the pack.Im already 100% sure Once in a Lifetime and Sacred Land are accepted.

Blazing Hate-Yeah feel free to fix anything . I know anything N.T.M. will find wrong will possibly be the 32nds but you tell him u told me to eliminate them .His last review said the offset (which I fixed) and PR (Which doesnt count).So this is a safe bet to get in

NTMs Prepare for War is an awesomely perfect sim.As u c my OIALT cut I actually got the idea out of this ones.

NTM hasnt cheked my Worlds End.He did say he liked most of my other files so i guess hell like it.

Oh yeah I have another Once in a Lifetime with a few fixed errors.Should I send it.I think ittl be better for the pack

BTW Sulfer,glad to c ur bak in this forum

Edit:Oh yeah my Blank File.NTM hasnt accepted that one but Sulfer did

Don't worry, I'm resigned with that song
Anyways, with that song, I got better my syncing techniques.
I hope my next simfiles would be better.

Greetings.

About making graphics, any accepted files that don't have a set of graphics just PM me with band - songname, I'll probably have enough taste to whip out fitting graphics without directions.

Also I might step something else if I learn DDReam a bit or find nice constant bpm song (I think I have one).

[Virus881]

Allright, I've submitted a 4 minute cut of The Leper Affinity. I think it's my best about syncing matters.

[Charlo]

Just submitted six of my files, hopefully it's okay that I uploaded them as attachments.

[Virus881]

Some inspiration:


I want to step some of Iron Maiden and/or Judas Priest =)

What do those plus sighns mean.Im guessing songs Sulfer accepted

[sp1nzoK]

To N.T.M. I'm pretty sure only sync flaw in Prison Born are the 24th notes, if there are any, I'm getting paranoid, so when you review the file sometime in future take extra notice on the 24ths, I don't want the file to be pooped with that kind of possible mistake. Cheers

Other things I noticed:
-The zip might still contain the useless .old files.
-The .sm has bpm of 260.001 instead of 260.000 does it auto-change .sm file bpm or how did that "1" get there.

[Plan_Bsk81127]

Nice, good to see a #2 come out. This time can we some like good rock and metal in. I dont mind playing stuff like Rhapsody and Dragonforce, and all bands like them, but when a majority of the pack is that stuff, it makes it eh to me. Idk, just saying I would like to see more like out there metel like As I lay Dying, disturbed, all that remains, and all that stuff. lol.

[Virus881]

Hey men, are Rush simfiles accepted? I have a never-released version of 2112.

Sulfer's first post says "Submit metal/rock stuff. Anything, I don't care," so I'm guessing Rush would be fine.
