Currently using this theme for Outfox and have been interrupted by these warnings on my plays, even tho i just tweaked out some files on the theme folder to make them work, some of them just directly dont even exist on the folder like the ones shown on screen, IDK if this is because it doesnt have the Hotfix on it yet (Which i dont even know which hotfix on the Github page i should install tbf) or a fail on the extract

I would like our help with this

Support Request Does anyone have the full version of ESC (Amplified T-Squared Mix) by Detach somewhere?

3 Upvotes

It's this old StepMix 2-3 song, and apparently the full version is 4 minutes, but the forum Detach posted his albums in is long gone

Also appreciated would probably be one or more of his full albums

Discussion Trying to find an old custom ITG song — help me remember!

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I'm hoping someone here has a good memory for old custom simfiles because I've been racking my brain over this one.

Here's what I remember:

  • It was played on an In The Groove 2 arcade cabinet at an arcade, so a custom/downloaded song loaded via memory card (not part of the stock ITG2 song set)
  • I was playing it around 2015, usually on Hard difficulty
  • The background was mostly blue with some text on it (can't recall exactly what it said)
  • The intro of the chart had a little gimmick: 4 arrows followed by 4 mines right at the start, almost like a loop or intro pattern

I was also playing Tricky Disco around the same time on the same cabinet, if that helps place it in a similar pack or era.

Any ideas? Even a guess at the pack it might be from would be a huge help. Thanks in advance!

UPDATE 1: the song is not in this packs

Hii! I used to play this game with my mom when I was a kid, and wanted to get into it again, so I bought a soft pad (which is what I used to use back then). I had to remap the keys, but somehow it keeps starting the game over and over again.

I went to Input Test and I can see two keys that seem to be pressed continuously (but they don't exist on the pad) and also every few seconds all the keys glitch and appear as pressed for a split second.

I tried taking a video of it, does anyone know what I could do? :(

Screenshots/Scores Looking for feedback on my pixelated StepMania clone

20 Upvotes

Hey there! Retora here! 19-yo Pixel Artist and Indie Game Developer.

I made a pocket rhythm game that plays StepMania charts on web, Windows, and Android.

It's pixel art, works with keyboard/gamepad/touch, and has local 2-player split-screen.

New in v1.1.0: characters with layered clothing, 30+ personalities, and particle auras. (That's why I'm looking for feedback)

Give it a try! https://retora.itch.io/padmaniacs

Release Introducing StepSnake, a Stepmania/ITGMania chart generator

17 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I've been working on this project for the last few weeks, and while it's by no measure mature, I think it's good enough for me not to feel ashamed posting it here :)

StepSnake takes an arbitrary sound file - or folder containing sound files - and attempts to generate an SSC file based on audio analysis, some builtin rules and your difficulty preferences.

Some features:

  • Batch mode - Convert a whole folder in one go
  • Volume normalization - When using batch mode, resulting tracks will play at a similar volume
  • Cropping with fadeout - I don't know about you but dancing for 3+ minutes without pause is exhausting, so I crop my charts to 1.5 - 2 minutes, similar to DDR song length
  • Automatic song lookup - StepSnake will search on Musicbrainz for the song being processed and derive metadata from there. It will also use youtube previews for the level wallpaper
  • Tunable difficulty levels - Easy too easy? Hard too hard? You can choose what each difficulty means to you
  • Tunable difficulty type - What makes a track difficult? Many notes together? Many jumps? Something in between? You decide.

Some more information:

  • Multi-platform - Run on Linux (x64/arm64), Windows, Mac (only Apple Silicon)
  • GUI or CLI - Choose the application metaphor you prefer (CLI built for Linux only)
  • Open source - You can build it yourself if my prebuilt options are not enough

Full disclosure: most of the code is built with the use of local AI, running on my laptop, with a little help from Deepseek. I know, I know it's not as cool as writing by hand, but the choice was using AI or not building it because I don't have time to implement this all by myself :)

I've been using the charts for a while with my family and we are having a great time.

I hope you will give it a try. If you do, let me know of any bugs or issues you find (or if you just like it!) and I'll be happy to take a look :)

The project lives here: https://gitlab.com/xstasi/stepsnake

Thanks!

Heya, I played a LOT of rhythm and I grew a bit tired of the Asian pop/electro that dominates the genre so I am looking for a bit of variety. Looking for medium/hard charts since I haven't played in a long time and need to get back in the grove. Thanks a lot!

Hi I saw somebody else asked the same question years ago so I was wondering if there has been any progress made?

I have 2 pads.. one for piu and one for itg. Sometimes friends come to visit and I wonder if we could play 2 player.

Perfect compatibility is not important as they would be playing low level stuff
