How much do you guys think each girl would charge for compensated dating?
Iroha is obviously the sluttiest of them all, so I wouldn't be surprised if she only charges 10,000 yen with bareback as an option. Lilina is the shy bookworm type, so she probably doesn't have any experience, and she's into occult stuff, so you might be able to take advantage of her naivety if you convince her there's some spooky white ectoplasm haunting your dick.
Ameto is probably pretty innocent but not clueless, and she'd probably do whatever's needed to help support her sisters. I imagine she'd charge a standard rate of 30,000 yen; no bareback allowed, of course. Hifumi, on the other hand, aware of her voluptuousness and what kind of men would be attracted to her mistress-type aura, wouldn't go lower than 40,000 yen, and the session would probably involve more abuse and derision of the guy than sex.
Xiatian is the friendly girl-next-door type. She's not slutty, but she also doesn't see sex as a big deal. She'd probably accept 20,000 yen, and the happiness of the guy having sex with her would mean more than the money. Finally, Tsugaru is probably still shy when it comes to guys, but she knows about compensated dating and she's hard pressed for cash. She'd probably charge 15,000 yen, unaware that such a large amount to her is peanuts in the industry, and she'd let the guy cum inside because she doesn't realize what will happen after he does.

Why not? that way even if an arcade can't run a modern IIDX style they can still run a sim and have custom charts.

the game is less about music and rhythm and more about how fast you can move your mouse/pen around.
also the scoring system sucks and the community is one of the worst in online games.

>>14565783
accuracy is completely secondary. being able to FC something with whatever mod is more important than accuracy is. accuracy is just for edging out a rank above someone who has the same type of FC as you. not to mention that maintaining good accuracy in osu! is easy most of the time.
aim plays a dramatically larger role in determining who can FC more maps than accuracy ever will in osu!. in good rhythm games accuracy is literally the entire scoring system.
>>14565808
yeah you can maintain acc if you nomod everything, but once you add HR or DT getting good acc isn't an easy feat
HR really makes osu! fun, especially if you add hidden into the mix.

So, new IIDX player here, and this is technically my first rhythm game that isn't shit like Project Diva f. I just have a few questions:
>I have the pendual version of IIDX, what should I do to make sure it's as beginner friendly as possible?
>I don't own a controller(yet), so what should I be mapping my keys to on my keyboard?
>>14565806
They had high ceilings as well since it was a large place. It was easily 10m high.
>>14565784
It happened overnight while it was closed and presumably had nobody working there (save for maybe janitorial workers). I feel more concerned for the people who work there who suddenly don't have work now. I've had friends of mine who have worked there part time in the past. Just sucks to imagine losing your job like that.
>>14567821
there are all kinds of keyboard layouts that have worked out for people over the years
your main decision should be whether you want to use one pinky for scratch or you want to learn to use both thumbs so you can use your ring finger for scratch(like ABCD, a top LR2 player). also decide which side you want the scratch on.
you can also just set it up arcade style if you're going to be getting a controller really soon. that would be the easiest to transition from.
a lot of it comes down to your keyboard though so i can't just straight up tell you which layouts to use. you need to experiment. use this to test for ghosting:

after scrolling though infinite infection and listening to previews I can understand how you can say 80% is high but there are a lot of just fucking terrible music and that's fine the games fun but theres no way people can say sdvx has even decent music which was the original argument the effects carry a lot of the songs anyways
>>14567970
Yeah, the hit rate for songs I actually like playing/listening to is a bit low, but the sheer amount of tracks available at each level really makes up for it I think. Compared to the other 'newer' titles (even jubeat), the selection's pretty good.

>I have the pendual version of IIDX, what should I do to make sure it's as beginner friendly as possible?
You should get Pendual Enabler and turn on everything. It unlocks songs normally locked behind eAmuse, disables the annoying timers, and by playing on Premium Free with no timer, you'll never get a Game Over.
https://github.com/kclkcl/pendual-enabler
If you decide you like IIDX, buy/build a controller sooner rather than later. The worse you are at the game, the easier it'll be to transition.
>>14568160
Tfw on the opposite end of the country.
Guess I'll just order a controller
>>14568237
get omnimix
>>14565774
>the game is less about music and rhythm and more about how fast you can move your mouse/pen around.
Because SDVX completely ruining the song with it's "kool effekts XD" is totally acceptable.
>>14571146
Well, yeah, Bemani did start as "DJ pretend games", which is literally what SDVX is.
>>14571374
I thought sdvx was a nipple twisting fetish camouflaged as a rhythm game.

That's my fetish.
>>14568237
btw if you go the Premium Free no timer route, remember to log out at the end of your session so you can get your dick wagging points.
>>14571986
How do you do this?
>>14572008
the same as quitting out of a song. VEFX + effect If I remember right
>>14571146
the sound voltex knobs are basically just handicaps for the actual tappatap gameplay, like a more extreme version of scratching in IIDX. it's still a lot more musical than mashing zx and moving your mouse around real fast.
>>14571146
That has nothing to do with rhythm.
>>14565783
>your acc is going to be shit if you don't play to the rhythm
but there is almost no rhythm in osu, everything in that game is basically random 8th or random quarter notes all over the place that are in time with the music so it gives off the illusion of something being rhythmic but its not, or even worse than that people will map circles to a bit that's not the main/loudest thing in a song, like there's a fucking map that maps to a fucking tambourine so it can have some horrible 16th note stream that you can barely hear already, and if you're like most players you're probably going to have hitsounds that are louder than music so that already quite part of the music is most likely going to be inaudible over the "ping" and "pop" that most players have as hitsounds. And perhaps best of all, nearly every beatmap past 4.5 stars has overmapped triples that are mapped to LITERALLY NOTHING, these are put into the game mostly because all of the shitty weeaboo music that makes up 90% of the music in osu would be so boring without them.
also, accuracy is COMPLETELY irrelevant if you're not full comboing shit, go look at the scoreboards of almost every hard streamy map, you'll see tons of really shit acc plays beating 90% acc like on Blue Zenith there's a fucking 77% beating like a 98% and that's ridiculous.
and maybe worst of all is sliders don't even have timing windows, you will get 300s on sliders no matter what, it doesn't matter if you hit them in time or not you're going to get a 300, they're basically free accuracy.

>>14572257
you make me wish i wasn't a silly american
>>14565774
Granted the scoring system is retarded but that has nothing to do with the game or skill involved in playing it. The timing window on OD10 is 19ms, and you have to be precise in your timing not only in your rhythm, but you also have to have good timing in your aim. Rushing or dragging behind in your tapping can result in a 100, but being anything less than perfect in your aiming will make you miss.
Posting this just in case anyone's interested in the differences between DDR and ITG timing and scoring.
Also fuck Stepmania developers for refusing to implement good DDR emulation.
>>14573613
Why are there a bunch of half frames on the DDR side. This is incorrect beyond the Marvelous and Perfect windows.
It also only applies to songs that have a BPM of 90, 150, 180, etc., since frame rounding at other BPMs causes the windows to wiggle around constantly.
>>14573835
One frame = 16.(6) ms.
I read somewhere that DDR keeps separate timing windows for early and late steps for Great and Good ratings, which is something Stepmania doesn't emulate. Not sure if it's true, those differences would be probably too small to notice.
>>14572897
it already is one
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HfSZ4WCLw6M
>>14574063
I'm used to bemani games having different early and late windows. That is not an issue.
Assuming the DDR scale is centered around a frame boundary (Marvelous window is two frames, so that's one early and one late frame, with the center in between them), the Great, Good, and Miss windows do not make sense since they appear to fall on half frames (91.(6) ms, 108.(3) ms, 141.(6) ms 158.(3) ms, and 191.(6) ms).
>Marvelous: 2/120 s (16.666 ms)
>Perfect: 4/120 s (33.333 ms)
>Great: 13/120 s (108.333 ms) early / 11/120 s (91.666 ms) late
>Good: 19/120 s (158.333 ms) early / 17/60 s (141.666 ms) late
>(early) Miss: 23/120 s (191.666 ms)
That's what's written everywhere on the internet. Maybe someone made an error that snowballed out of control and is now parrotted by everyone. Or maybe Konami's just bad at programming. Either way the lower of those values is what I plugged into Stepmania to get as close to DDR as possible, and even make certain early/late timings a bit stricter.
>>14574223
>Maybe someone made an error that snowballed out of control and is now parrotted by everyone.
It wouldn't be the first time.
>>14574067
osu users doubled the bpm of this song to make it 278BPM just to make it harder
>>14574319
How does that make it harder?
It's the same as keeping it at original BPM and mapping to 16th instead of 8th notes or something.
Most osu songs are overmapped anyway.
>>14574319
does anyone care about osu?
>>14574420
they shouldnt
>>14574357
I don't know osu but maybe it affects the note appear speed or something
>>14574486
That's governed by the AR, BPM doesn't affect anything.
>>14574357
>>14574486
>>14574537
it doesn't necessarily make it harder but it can change what the object density is depending on the AR, like on AR9 there would be a lot more circles on screen at 278BPM than there would be at the proper 139BPM.
>>14566007
Rhythm game block at gdq when.
Probably never because they'd have to have the actual cabinets or play Sims like lr2
>>14574866
If you have 4 circles timed 1 second apart, it doesn't matter whether the BPM is 120 or 240, they will look exactly the same because the Approach Rate is the only variable that changes how fast notes appear. It's not like IIDX where halving the BPM also makes notes scroll slower.
today i'm going to get a nice big breakfast, take a shower and sit down on my ass and play bms for at least 6 hours.
I know this is rhythm game general but is there arcade data available for bishi bashi on sows or somewhere else? It's a relatively old game and you could play it with a pop'n controller with some friends, just wondering

Does anyone know if there is ANY superstar mitsuru merch other than cd
do you guys play with your controller in your lap or on a desk
>>14582017
I do both, I prefer lap though
who's the nigger?
Why the fuck is my accuracy absolute ass with data but not in lr2
>>14582017
desk, i play with uskoc and putting it on my lap would mean tossing the thing across the room whenever i scratch
>>14582083
lap with koc, desk with asc
>>14582091
lr2 has fucking huge timing windows.
also lol unstable fps, lol monitors, lol f.lux, lol having anything running in the background at all while playing data, etc.
>>14581897
Erosion Mark isn't that hard.
>>14582017
Desk, FP7 is too big for my lap, i play standing too so...
>>14582017
i play on top of a pizzabox that's on top of my lap
so both i guess
>>14582017
on top of a bunch of boxes and books because there's no other decent variable height solution
>>14582017
FPS and desk while sitting.
tfw dark schneider too fast for shitter hands
do crossovers ever happen in popn?
>>14582350
Erosion Mark is harder than some of the 11s I passed so far.
>>14581054
its so true it hurts
>broke 12 wall
>no IIDX AC until summer break
If only keyboard IIDX translates to AC.
>>14582017
I put mine ontop of the box it came in on my desk
I find it easier to play while standing
>>14582097
>lol f.lux
is this a joke? people play with flux?
>>14583957
get a controller anon
>>14583957
id rather play on a keyboard at home rather than dump money into iidx ac
>>14583999
I've left it on by accident when playing AC and wondered why the fuck the FPS during the monitor check was going between 58 and 61.
>>14582091
Timing windows in LR2 are significantly larger than AC data (+-21ms vs +-16.67ms for JGreat window). Even on normal the timing windows in LR2 are noticeably larger (+-18ms).
Does anyone know of a way to get the background videos for songs in LR2. I have a for videos for 1st-10th style but none after.
Hello, friends! I've been playing a bit of Beatmania ever since /v/ told me about the game, and while it's a lot of fun, there are a few songs I find... gross. Possibly the worst offender I've seen so far is pic related: There's an entire song full of suggestive pictures of a girl who can't be older than 10.
As much as I respect artistic integrity, can't we leave paedophilia out of music games? Does anyone disagree that Konami could use some oversight on this?
>>14584568
afaik the arcade centers in japan are for adults. I dont see the problem here
>>14584568
Welcome to Japan, take a complimentary loli and git out
>>14582097
>>14584370
Is there a way to change the timing in lr2 to be stricter and emulate arcade timing windows?
>>14584782
I don't think so. Somebody just needs to make a new simulator for IIDX and Pop 'n. LR2 hasn't been updated in a longggg ass time.
>>14584782
>>14584917
Actually I believe there is, but it's done on a per-BMS basis, defined in the file.
There might be a program that automatically rewrites all your files to have standard timings, but this would disqualify them from Internet Ranking, and even if there is such a program it's probably in Japanese or Korean and I can't read it.
What are some good rhythm games for beginners in the genre?
>>14585007
keyboard stepmania.
>>14585007
Stepmania desu
>>14583362
It was literally the first 11 i passed.
>>14585007
Stpemania.
Go for LR2 if you're feeling brave.
>>14585091
It was my 4th
but I find Miracle Meets, Halfway of Promise, Wonder Bullfighter, and maybe Rock Da House easier (don't remember the chart).
That said passed another 14 11s. No brakes on the 11 train.
>>14585170
Try Colosseum, it pretty easy for an 11.
>>14585264
I got Colosseum (fun song).
I actually am keeping track with my absolutely dogshit opinion that I'll probably fix when I'm actually able to beat hard stuff.

Working on Valgus but I keep failing with 60-70%.

>>14584917
There's one called LunarBeat I believe, and it has some nice features like adjustable playing speed to practice if I remember correctly. However it's still early and when I tried it about 6 months ago it didn't seem to perform fluently, but I'm sur in a few years it will be great if they keep working on it
>>14585484
it's sows only for now.
>>14585484
>like adjustable playing speed
floating high-speed? Cause that would be a godsend.
>>14585484
lunarbeat is nice purely for analog turntable support, using an arcin for lr2 is shaky at best
i wish it got updated more often though
>>14585484
>>14585595
I wouldn't rely on it. The creator hasn't logged onto sows in 8 months. Not sure if she is still working on the project or not.
>>14585484
If you mean playing a song at half/0.75x/whatever speed, LR2 can do that. It's just hidden away in the effector options for some reason. You'll know you enabled the right option if the song select music slowed down/speeds up. It's the one that's on +0 by default and goes from -12 to +12.
I spent all my money on an FP7
Save me
>>14584568
It's a drawing
>>14585669
i wish i had money to spend on an FP7
>>14585699
I wish I had money.
>>14585715
I wish I had freetime
>>14585484
>when I tried it about 6 months ago it didn't seem to perform fluently
Jesus, how hard can it be to write a competent Beatmania simulator? Is it just lack of interest that's lead to people coping with LR2 for all these years?
>>14585951
it's actually decently difficult. However it's mostly lack of interest. That guy had almost a playable laggy build a year ago that had more features than lr2. If he actually spent the last 12 months working on it he probably would have a decent version out now.
>>14586216
well he censored the bellybutton everyone knows the bellybutton is the lewdest part
Hey anons anyone got a tutorial for setting up some jubeat got some HDD data here but kinda clueless
>>14586812
/jp/ is not pirated tech support, go to sows.
And if you don't have access there you shouldn't have data anyway.
>>14586812
This is rhythm game talk, not HDD support, go to sows for that.
>>14586831
ya big help thats great if you cant help why respond
>>14586893
He did help, he told you you aren't going to find results here and pointed you to a place where you can get help.

Is there any merit to using the cursors for playing or should I change to something like x c v b?
>>14587293
no merit unless you just enjoy it. use your index and middle finger on both hands. doesn't matter where the keys are placed specifically as long as it's comfortable.
>>14587293
Two fingers on cursor keys are a pretty accurate substitute of dancepad. Even more so on numpad, but you'll have a lot of trouble memorising where the arrow keys are at the beginning. If you play charts made with dancepad in mind (all official DDR and ITG material), any other control setup will trivialise a lot of technical challenges of some of the harder charts, such as crossovers.
In increasing degree of "cheating", you have four fingers of one hand on four buttons in line (like xcvb), two fingers of two hands on four buttons and four fingers of two hands on eight buttons. But that's only for dancepad charts. There's plenty of material made specifically for the last one of those three setups that would be impossible to pass for anyone on dancepad.
For reference, I started with four fingers of one hand setup and took about four months to get to the level where I could comfortably C rank DDR 17s and some 18s. After switching to two fingers on cursor keys I couldn't pass shit and had to take baby steps from the very beginning. Still can't pass any 15 with this.
If you have any amount of interest in playing actual DDR, playing "index" with StepMania can help you polish your technique and reading ability, as long as you treat each hand as a foot.
>>14585336
No new sensation [a]?
It was my first 11. Then again I love chord heavy charts
Did the difficulty ratings from recent styles got easier, or is just me good with a certain playstyle that is always there in modern tracks? I passed 90% of Pendual's 9s on my first try when it came out, and I have every 9 from Lincle and Tricoro cleared except one, with A on almost everything but when I try older styles, like DJ Troopers and older, I find a lot of 9s that I can't pass at all and fail with C
