Now updated with doubles steps. Fixed up the Single Challenge steps a bit too, so they flow better. New Single Beginner and Single Basic steps, too. The old Single Basic steps are now edit steps called “ParaPara”, as they were originally intended to follow the para para dance video that goes with it.
I’ve decided to hold off on the full release of this simfile until after the official release of SMiLE.dk’s new album, Party Around The World. In the meantime, you can enjoy the Single Challenge steps by downloading here. Don’t forget to pre-order their new album! You can do that on Amazon.com.
And finally, some edit steps for Walkie Talkie, in StepMania .edit format. They’re ITG-style, with some hands here and there. Rating 9. Download here.
New stuff coming soon, I promise. I just haven’t had time to work on anything lately.
In the meantime, check out nDDRo’s latest release. Titiln, Ken, and a bunch of Ken’s friends got together to produce a fan mix called DDRMAX 3. 78 songs. They really went the extra mile with this one, all the songs have a FULL set of stepcharts, including doubles, and the songs even have background videos! Check it out, it’s too sweet (sorry, had to throw that in there).
I’ll be re-releasing this one soon with doubles steps. I’m doing a BG animation for this one, and was wondering what you guys would prefer… and by “you guys”, I mean those of you who actually give a shit about this StepMania stuff.
First option: random videos, which I used in AM Radio. Second option: a BG animation script using background videos from DDR Extreme. Third: use the title sequence from the show, and finally: just slap in the video with the two parapara dancers demoing the parapara dance for the music.
In the “it’s about fucking time I updated this thing” department, here’s an update to my Golden Sky simfile. I was rather excited when I found out that Golden Sky was on DDR SuperNOVA… and when I played it I was extremely disappointed. The cut sucked and the steps were rather bland.
The Kamek Originals Cut is 1:48 long and continues past the first chorus, instead of repeating it a billion times. This update includes a Beginner chart and doubles charts, which more or less follow the same basic rhythms as the single charts. I stuck with OGG encoding for the song, for those of you who like to use ITG2’s custom song feature.
This is what I’ve been trying to do for the past couple of weeks.
The machine is (well, was) an ITG2 R1 dedicab, located at Incredible Pizza Company in Conroe, TX. And now it has every DDR and ITG song ever, and then some.
I’m still alive, but schoolwork and other pressing real-life issues (and also Super Smash Bros. Brawl) have prevented me from releasing anything lately. I do still plan on putting up more simfile updates, and possibly some new ones too.
AM Radio has been updated, in the first of a planned series of updates to my older simfiles. The aim of this project is to ensure all of my old simfiles are accurate, synced properly, and have both singles and doubles steps for Beginner (single), Light, Standard, and Heavy difficulties.
This update to AM Radio adds double steps: Light (4), Standard (7), and Heavy (9). Additionally, it adds Beginner single steps (2), and a new set of Challenge steps (8), which don’t suffer from “karaoke step syndrome” like the Heavy steps do. It also addresses a sync issue at the end in the old version. Furthermore, the song is encoded at a higher bitrate (192 Kbps) for better quality.
Here is a re-release of all my custom Oni courses, all with banners, including a new bonus course: Video Gamer! Video Gamer also has a new bonus simfile by me from the Brawl soundtrack…
The courses use the DDRUK bumper pack naming scheme. If your DDR simfiles were downloaded elsewhere, you may have to manually fix the courses so that they point to the right song folders. As far as courses with Kamek Originals go, they point to a folder called “Kamek Originals” (natch). A couple courses point to DDREI TournaMix files; if you don’t have these the course can be played without them.
