osu is a good game
So are they just greats or p greats?
please convince me that spending the equivalent of almost 1,5 of my country's minimum wage on an FP7 is a bad idea, /jp/
>>15103058
It's a bad idea. You should save up for a gun instead.
>>15103078
Why? I can use an FP7 to kill myself tooI've been wanting this shit for more than a year ;_;I guess you're right though
>>15103058
It's a fucking retarded idea. You can build one yourself for far less.
>>15103083
Don't use a gun to kill yourself. If you fuck up it's basically hell. Shitting yourself in an assisted care facility until pneumonia finishes the job.
Just use an exit bag/helium like a normal person.
>>15103092
Is there some sort of tutorial for this? Also, how hard is it? I'm not that good with this sort of stuff, but I'm willing to learn if it isn't too complicated.
>>15103094
Yea, you're right
why are so many bemani fans jaded sarcastic assholes
>>15103181
Because music games begets autism.
>>15103058
>>15103078
>>15103094
>>15103103
On a similar note, gun suicides are typically counted in "gun violence" statistics which makes it even harder for the next person to off themselves.
The tutorial is pretty much through the mouth, and aim at the base of the brain at the top of the neck where it meets the head, and use a caliber that's hopefully at least .4 in diameter if a pistol or .350 if a rifle.
The tutorial for building a IIDX controller is pretty much browsing the homemade IIDX controller thread on sows, although it's mainly this:
Acquire buttons (knockoff or sanwas), microswitches (preferably omrons, these matter), a board (Arcin, Arduino), wires (you'll need connectors if you're using an Arcin), and an encoder of decent quality.
Get a box or make one.
Laser cut out a front plate with the required spacings (again available on sows but I'm pretty sure there's spacing all on the internet) out of some stiff material such as acrylic or wood or plastic or metal or whatever.
Insert buttons, wire them up properly, steal gamepad code if you're using an Arduino, and plug into computer, setup in bemanitools, run gaem.
>>15103181
because IIDX causes suffering.
Holy fucking shit, I'm so happy. I have a Voltex controller coming in the mail and never got around to getting data for it.
Now I don't have to fuck my ratio because of it.
Thanks, Rhythm Game Jesus!

I've been playing Stepmania for several years and feel like picking up SDVX or IIDX. From the few times I've played IIDX something about how you have to place your fingers felt really awkward and shitty to me though. Does that pass quickly? Does SDVX feel weird at first too? It seems like it's basically just Stepmania's spread + thumbs and reaching for a knob sometimes, which sounds great to me.
Don't want to drop 200-300 on a controller then realize I don't really like how the game feels
Thanks for any replies
>>15104837
IIDX is at first very unintuitive, and no matter what style you use you will never have a "straight line" layout. It becomes natural after a while, especially if you just commit scales to muscle memory.
By contrast, SDVX is very intuitive at first, with all buttons within reasonable reach and relatively good knob placement, which is why levels 1-13 should take you (or anyone, really) less than a month to get through especially if you're experienced in 4K stepmania already.
osu is fun! the scoring system is bullshit, and it's a bitch to find any songs that I like, but I enjoy it
what other games should a pleb like me try?
>>15105050
REFLEC BEAT+ if you have an iPad
>>15104837
SDVX should be pretty easy to get into. I was doing 15s on keyboard and it only took me a week to get back to where I was after getting a controller. Reading skill from Stepmania should help you quite a bit as well.
>>15104837
i played keyboard sm for like a year and i was able to jump into sdvx 11s when i tried it out, it helps
i never stuck with it though, i liked iidx more
iidx needs more breakcore
>>15105301
Reizoko Cj in IIDX when
I thought HDD was downloadable for non-powerusers on free leech?
I still don't see DL link, bah
>>15105407
freeleech is over dude
Cobalt flux guy here again
Hoping to get more insight on this pad from past or current users because finding info on these things is very difficult due to forums and company site being dead.
Any have any info on what to look out for etc or where or what control boxes are compatible with them? Still searching for one to buy
When are they gonna start that new service so Lapistoria can finally fucking get card support
>>15105608
I'm not 100% but I'm willing to bet any ol' control box with a DB9 connector will work for it.
It might no be pinned correctly but You're going to be using it on a computer with SM or arcade data anyways, I assume, so you can just map it out correctly.
Might actually be an issue if you plan on using it on a PS2.
>>15105150
This game is awful speed killer. After playing for couple of hours my brain speed dropped so low I couldn't play LLSIF because of how crazy fast it became. Good thing it recovered next day. Never playing this shit again.
>>15104837
Play SM with a step pad, nerd.
>>15104837
just get a pop'n controller dude
i wish there was a way to change my username on sows
>>15106396
staff pm should work
>>15106435
so i should just message one of the staff members, any of them will do??
>>15106441
just click contact staff at the top
i guess you could pm one directly too
>>15105906
Thanks for the info
I planned on buying a cobalt flux to use it on a ps2 with the jp ddr games, hope to find one with a control box but if not I'll look out for these db9 connector boxes
Can I edit the ea3 for Voltex to always be in event mode?
I have to manually make it event mode every time I play. It's a little annoying.
>>15107161
What does Event Mode do, anyway? Seen it in the test menu but never messed around with it.
>>15107194
It just stops the clock. That thing makes me so nervous, I can't enjoy selecting songs.
So basically, how do I stop the clock permanently, is my actual question.
>>15107161
A quick search on sows says that there isn't a way or a known hex edit yet, so you'll have to stick with it.
When the day comes that SDVX gets updated to have a Premium Free equivalent I will be happy (when we get the data one year later on piggy site).
Then I could finally quit IIDX.
>>15107294
Actually, two years from the looks of it.
>>15107460
desu the giant hands on a fursuit would probably help with hitting triples
>>15107544
Being a furry is cheating.
fuck i missed freeleech, its not like i was gonna download any data but it still feels bad
anyways i'm stuck at 7s IIDX, is playing 6s with random a good way to improve or should I keep trying 7s? Empress CS btw.
>>15107679
random is cheating but yes it helps you improve so do it
You might also want to fiddle around with your green number if you find your accuracy suffering.
>>15107679
What data did you want to dl if you could?
Why does /rgg/ hate Stepmania?
>>15107929
stepmania on a pad is perfectly okay though
>>15107962
Perfectly fine on a keyboard too.
SM at the highest levels of play is otherworldly. Those fucking Koreans, man.
so I posted this to twitter but I'm not sure if this can get invite (not surprising, I made it in 5 mins)
I can do a quick remake with effort put in if some staff from site requires it
>>15108068
you're doing it wrong lrn2irc
>>15108068
Why would you write 4/20 as 420 instead of just 4月20日?
>>15108156
Why did he use 燃やせ instead of 炎? Because he's a dumb-shit EOP, that's why.
>>15108068
i'll get on it

wow this is the highest level bait i've seen in here in a while
>>15107460
I once knew this autistic kid at my school who was absolutely obsessed with Looney Tunes. He'd run throughout the halls with his Bugs Bunny shirt, and would sometimes say "LOO TOONS" out of nowhere for no goddamn reason. Me and my bud found out that he was irritated as hell one week, simply because the timeslot after school where they played Looney Tunes on some channel was taken up by Sonic the Hedgehog, bumping it to some other inconvenient slot. He expressed his hatred of Sonic every other second.
One day, we decided to be dicks and I drew a picture of Sonic, using a picture from Sonic 3's boxart as a reference.
Snickering like little shits, we came up to the fellow. He was wearing a Sylvester shirt that day. I told him we had a present for him, and I handed him my drawing of Sonic.
He stared for a moment, and his eyes bulged. It came out as some sort of snarl, I think. He started low and then it turned into a fucking banshee scream. "sonnnNNNIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICC!" Promptly after that shriek, he literally fell into a grand mal seizure, and me and my bud fucking ran.
He was ok the next day and continued talking about Looney Tunes. But I can't seem to get rid of the guilt of causing an autistic child to go into convulsions at the sight of Sonic the Hedgehog.
>>15107460
For once I thought that "pop'n music attracts furries" was bullcrap since it was so colorful
Until today...
So what exactly is wrong with popn music? Finally got to try it out at a round 1 and thought it was fun....too bad it tookme a while to figure out the menu though
>>15109559
Nothing? It's arguably the hardest bemani game, and it has a kawaii artstyle. Go slap some hamburgers, it's a fun game.
>>15104837
IIDX feels weird at the start, gets natural after a bit
SDVX feels natural at the start, gets really weird after a bit.
>>15107199
No way to do it, you'll have to keep enabling event mode every time.
>>15109836
Not that big of a deal. Takes 5 seconds per play session. I'm not too beat up about it.
Thanks anyways.
>>15109559
Game is great, the furfags it attracts are not.
>>15109559
what the hell are you talking about? i've never seen someone complain about pop'n, the closest thats come to that i've seen is people talking about how they don't like the music or the fact that tons of tumblrites/furries play it (although i've seen way more furfags being into iidx and itg more than pop'n)
>>15101810
jpsies don't have the physical strength to do taiko 2player 1 arm for each drum
>>15110883
or the shit taste in music to play taiko in the first place
quality scoring system
>>15109600
>>15109847
>>15110606
So it's not gameplay, it's just the crowd the game unfortunately attracts is what you guys don't like?
I can understand that, it's a shame it probably has a stigma behind it too that only these type of people play it
I think the music is good for the game so I doubt people dislike the songs featured in popn
>>15111007
>it's just the crowd the game unfortunately attracts is what you guys don't like?
its not really an issue to be honest, the amount of players that pop'n has in the west in really tiny, tiny enough that there really isn't much of a "community" around it. so even though the game attracts "unwantables" (which i don't think they're enough of them to really warrant anything) it isn't really going to matter because the game doesn't really have a western community in the first place. like even for rhythm games, pop'ns community is nonexistent. nobody cares about pop'n, so you shouldn't care about who plays it.
>>15110892
>caring about what music is in rhythm games
I don't give two shits about rock or metal, but I play the fuck out of Rock Band, Guitar Hero, Guitar Freaks etc.
If it's a rhythm game, I'll play it, even if it's a fucking Bluegrass simulator, where the controller is a jug you blow on.
>>15111576
>mfw i play llsif because i like the music
how do I not get my feet mixed up when playing DDR/pumpitup?
I trip over myself when there are a bunch of notes on one side or those staircase patterns
>>15109847
popn attracts furries?
maybe I should start playing it
>>15112172
No offense but it sounds like you're really new to these games.
Eventually you will be able to see every note on the screen as one pattern and instantly know exactly how your legs are going to move. Which one hits which arrow, even if you're body is facing different directions.
Also maybe only play one of them at a time until you get the hang of it. If I started playing both at the same time I might have trouble with this too.
>>15112172
stop thinking of having each foot assigned to a certain panel and try to figure out how to move from step to step in the most natural manner.
>>15112172
here take this image that some people who are better than me made
Would someone help me out with this please? I don't understand what I'm doing wrong in setting up the game.
>>15112739
You get that error the first time you start it up
If it's not the first time,ask on sows or check the wiki this isn't pirated tech support you fucking faggot
>>15110972
Is there any reason they don't just fix it?
Are there people who actually like it like this?
>>15112924
>Are there people who actually like it like this?
people defend this shit because osu is aim based
they're working on moving to a different scoring system thats like 70% combo 30% accuracy (with sliders actually having timing windows) and most of the tards on /r/osugame started having a big autistic shitfit because of it.
>>15112967
But if it's aim based why would you defend accuracy being worth less in a score?
Are they retarded or am I misinformed on how the scoring works
>>15112484
Never once in my life did I ever do a "crossover footswitch"
This must be for the newer, goofier charts of DDR. I stopped around X.
Why?
>>15113210
If this is mania then wew lads
>>15113219
It is.
>>15113210
might as well just play LR2 at that point
unless youre playing 4k in which case playstepmania
>>15112971
>But if it's aim based why would you defend accuracy being worth less in a score?
because they all have hardon for "aim consistency", for some reason.
>Are they retarded
yes
>>15111007
I absolutely hate furries, or at least the ones that actually dress like them to show that they're furries, i absolutely despise them, they're just scum.
>>15113224
Just play stepmania or bms man
>>15113381
So if I can get a high accuracy on jumps fairly consistently but tend to lose my combo chain on stupid notespam streams I have poor """""aim consistency"""""?
I enjoy classic osu personally but that line of thinking makes no sense
>>15111097
>No community
>Nobody cares about pop'n
That sucks
I'll continue to play it whenever I get a chance again to do so. I'm going to search for a guide on how to navigate through the menus, because I had no idea what I was doing
>>15113411
They're an odd crowd. Haven't found a reason to hate them, but I'll definitely continue to stay away from these types
>>15112739
>posting AC data in public
delete this you retard
>>15113188it's mainly an ITG reference actually

Still never did that maneuver.

Are there tablets that I'd be able to use for osu that would also double as drawing tablets? Or is it one or the other?
>>15110892
>rhythm game music is good
I haven't seen this meme in a while
>>15114829
most of the tablets that top players use are just bamboo tablets
>>15114832
Oh boy, show me how you would chart "I LOVE YOU JESUS CHUUURIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIST" in a rhythm game and I'll consider your point.I assuming since you've umbrella'd ALL rhythm game music as bad you must be some brain dead elitist and thusly must love said piece of shit album.
>>15114832
There's a lot of variety actually. Not all rhythm music is made by DJ ___ or whatever.
>>15114876
probably something like
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ch14wlTUW5A
>>15114876
your allergic reaction to my bait is hilarious considering I was just imitating you
you didn't state your favorite game so I had to resort to attacking the genre
please, tell me what game I should play for good music
>>15114956
>please, tell me what game I should play for good music
there is no such thing as good music as music taste is 100% subjective
>>15114956
If you don't like music why the fuck are you playing rhythm games
>>15114956
Well shit, seeing as how I am >>15111576
I guess it doesn't matter.
But Rhythm games cover basically ever single genre you'd encounter so there's no way to know what would be a fit for you.
Fuck.
So I just got an order of 10 omrons w/ 200 gram resistance and they are all always open.
Is there a way I can easily use these god damn things or do I need to waste even more fucking money?
I'm fucking sick of all this diy nonsense and am just about ready to murder people indiscriminately
>>15117286
step 1 of DIY: read the label
If you're using an arduino, you can code it so that it send a key press when the microswitch is on low voltage rather than high, but I have no idea what to do for arcins/daos
>>15117286
>>So I just got an order of 10 omrons w/ 200 gram resistance
Your first mistake, 100g is the absolute max you should be using for any purpose.
>they are all always open.
What the fuck does that even mean? You mean "normally open"? Because that's what you fucking want.
DIY is not hard. I'm sorry you're braindead, maybe you should have just spent the 300 bucks and been horribly ripped off.
>>15117350
Fuck literally off you fucking faggot.
Show me a link where you can buy a "normally open" 200 gram omron switch.
Everyone I've seen has been 200gr. spring + 200gr. switch for pop'n controllers.
Fuck you.
>>15117350
>>15117365
Please stop fighting...
>>15117365
Any microswitch you get is going to have two terminals for NO and NC.
If you buy a switch that's NO only then you're fine. This is what you want. Lrn2circuits.
If you buy a switch that's NC only then fuck around with the code in your arduino.
Also, lrn2google.

>>15117402
Give a man a mask and he will show his true face.
>>15117524
>just google V-10-1A5
Literally what I bought.
They are "Normally closed" when I need "normally open".
Or visa versa, which ever, who knows?
>>15117576
Then attach the wire to the NO terminal instead of the NC terminal.
It's the one closer to ground.
>>15117583
There's only two terminals.
>>15117688
Well this is what I got.
Maybe I read the parts sheet wrong, but god damn this is wrong.
>>15117741
>lever switch
>NO only
yeah, you fucked up.
You'll have to crack it open to remove the lever or else it won't even fit in the holder (I'm assuming pop'n buttons are the same setup underneath as IIDX buttons).
If you're using an Arduino just switch all the LOW and HIGH terms in your code.
For other boards I'm not competent enough in electrical circuits to let you know a workaround for the NC part, although I pulled this drawing out of my ass and have no idea if it'll work or just start a fire.

On top of that I'm losing my Pop'n skills too because I can't muster the energy to get it out of the closet.
I just lose the will to play when I see my shitty timing and how it only improves when I play something like 10 levels under my upper limit, and it's still not as good as what someone's timing should be when playing something so easy.
>>15123431

That's because most Koreans have nothing to live for except be a cog in a thinly veiled military dictatorship. They live and breathe arcades and PC bangs because they're escaping from their shitty lives.
At least the Japanese invented their own hell with too much stuff to jerk off to in a single lifetime. Most Koreans look forward to either spending a fortune on plastic surgery to be remotely fuckable, or getting leukemia working in a Samsung slave shop.

On voltex, can you unlock new characters? There's only like 5 and 2 of them are fujoshit fuckboi twinks. I'm just stuck with this pink haired hologram bitch.
>>15127264
nice bait
>>15127264
That's rasist.
>>15127288
>>15127357
Thanks for answering my question, guys. I really appreciate your help.
>>15127181
>>15127231
What thread. I have a machine as well, so I might be able to help you out.
>>15127264
Yes, you can unlock the SUPER STAR MITSURU guy
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_h4yhBuxg0
There's also Grace, some black haired chick, and a few more variations of Rasis including a bikini and a yukata
>>15127373
I was looking for the guide where it tell you everything you need to do to unlock shit. But I gave up.

Now... fuck you shithead. I want to play SDVX III. But no Round1 anywhere near here.
>>15127494
Probably should have specified I was talking about Voltex II AC data. It says all the songs are unlocked but I was just wondering about the characters.
Not that it really matters, I was just curious.
>>15127635
lol, ok.
i can't fucking progress

how is this monitoring your progress at all you should be using a spreadsheet or some shit

Actually called Mauser just now and they sent me the wrong shit. Like, wildly wrong. Got the right shit coming in a the mail.
So I guess this is another chapter of "shit that's gone wrong in my life" that's coming to a close.
I love when shit's not my fault.
>>15127873
>>15127983
actually scratch that why not use iidx-fx if you're on sows i think it tracks your scores
>>15127640
I mean, I'd still want to know how to unlock other characters for II, if you would be willing to help.
i recently set my sudden+ modifier and have a set green number now, but i'm noticing i'm getting significantly more slows than fasts on songs with varying bpm too, what should i change to fix this, my white number? if so which direction should i change it in
>>15129085
I mean I've gotten more slows than fasts on different songs, not just on songs that have the bpm change midsong
>>15129089
I personally just set a very small white number for Hidden+ (66), but your results may vary.
Try increasing your green number a tiny bit, so you read slower and might have more time to react.
So what the fuck do I do with The Safari? Are there any specific techniques I can work on or do I just have to spend a month getting gud?
Is there a site where I can view IIDX charts?
>>15129586

>>15127181
Suck Anthony's dick so he gives you the final Prop data that he's been feeding to other arcades for months.
>>15129085
Adjust your sync with a minus number. If you've found a white/green combo you're comfortable reading at, it's gonna be infinitely easier just to mess with sync if you're hitting late. My main rival plays on like a -2.0 and I don't get it but she does score better than me on a lot of songs.
If you're hitting early like me tho (way more fasts than slows), play with lift instead. I play on sudden/lift and it is amazing. You could adjust your sync with a positive number but in my experience I notice it just makes things worse. My other friend was playing at +2.5 with just sudden and I converted him over to sudden/lift with a +0.5 and he's been able to consistently AA 10s.
This is on a cab with a very very good (and expensive) LCD, your mileage may vary.

Why is this thread the only place I ever see IIDX even mentioned?
Everywhere else is DDR, ITG, sm5, PIU and pop'n
Anyway, apparently there's a new DDR machine up in Ferntree Gulley which I hear is 2016. I also heard somewhere that location testing is happening in Australia. I'm heading up tomorrow to check it out, I just wanted to know if there's anything you lads wanted to know.
because iidx is too hard and extreme for casuals
>>15131261

If you have the data where the track list is fully unlocked, you can only unlock appeal cards and you do that after the results screen in the shop.
What's the hardest chart in all of IIDX history? Himiko [b]?

So I'm confused as to exactly what Guitar Freaks Drummania XG2 is. From screenshots it looks nothing like the good ol' Drummania I'm used to. It look like Drummania DTX which I thought was some fan made game that was more intense than Drummania, with more toms and cymbals and shit.
Is this thing an actual Bemani game and actually part of the Gitadora series?
Either way it looks fun. Fuck old and bust DM.
>>15132029
Alright, so I guess it is actually part of the series, it's just a suped up version.
So I guess DTX was just emulating these games instead of old fashioned DM.
>>15131679

>>15132499
Why is this so weird? Is playing DDR alone weird? Is playing Keyboardmania alone weird? IIDX?
I've never played this shit before, is there a specific thing it does with two people and not one?
>>15130173
I already was playing with a -1.0 sync, i've messed around with sudden a bit more and i'm trying it with an extremely low white number.
I also tried to increase my GN from 350 to 300, because i kept hearing that anything above 300 isn't good. even for mid level players. so that's probably why my timing is off
>>15132029
XG1 added the left pedal, left cymbal and floor tom for DM and the extra two notes for GF and was released at the same time as V7. Had all the same songs, charted with the new inputs, as well as a classic mode that was like playing old GF/DM. Same thing with XG2 and V8. XG3 dropped the classic mode and had no corresponding V-series game. Gitadora basically continues from XG3 with a new UI and smaller, cheaper cabs.
>>15132833
Play at whatever GN you're comfortable with. I have a pretty slow reaction time, so I played at 305 on Lincle, and I'm an SP Kaiden with 99% on a handful of songs and AAAs on a majority of the 12s.
>>15130173
How did you find a good lift? I hit naturally fast and I've been thinking about trying lift to not have to mess with the offset. I play with 400 white 290 green right now.
>>15133623
Hi auric
>>15133634
That is not how lift works.
i wish i had a ddr gf
>>15132832
taiko is usually played with couples, ddr is usually fine
>>15133754

>>15133856
but all of the girls i've seen playing are trash
>>15133860

they are having fun, remember what that's like?
>>15133860
There are a couple girls that go to my local arcade that AAA songs with me.
There are a lot more guys there that play at that level, though.Good thing I'm gay.
>>15133880
W-What local arcade do you go to
>>15133878
>having fun
Please explain.
Anyone here own or have access to a ddr/itg stepmania machine? Is it worth having one around or is buying a ps2 with dance pads an easier route?
Do I have to reconfigure my inputs with my SDVX controller every fucking time I plug the damn thing in? How obnoxious.
>>15134171
This shouldn't be an issue, assuming bemanitools.
I just plug my controller in before launching and it works always.
Check that something isn't set to read-only and preventing you from saving your settings.
>>15133878
I have fun when I get AAAs on 17s.which has literally never happened to me ;_;
>>15133655
>99% on a handful of songs and AAAs on a majority of the 12s.
>auric
How do you turn on lift in pendual?
>>15134877
it's in the same menu as sudden+ IIRC
>>15133878
I have fun when beating a new 12 or AAA something new.
Also getting SSS in 10s in Jubeat is always nice.
>>15134164
Anyone?
>>15133634
I found the green/white combo (with just sudden+) I liked and then to compensate for being early I turned on sudden/lift together and tweaked the lift spot until I was on time.

So now that I have access to Pendual, do I just throw LR2 in the trash?
>>15135931
yes
>>15135931
maybe
>>15135931
no, how else are you going to play copula songs at home
>>15135931
>>15136261
plebs don't have copula, good thing i'm in piggy place :^)
So at the higher levels of Voltex, when you have heavy streams of BT and FX notes and are asked to wildly adjust the knobs, are you supposed to focus on the knobs or the notes?
This shit is fucking my mind.
>>15137001
Well if it's just two or three notes over and over, or just a simple pattern in general then probably knobs. Voltex requires muscle memory of the knobs on certain charts, though.
How do you feel about crossbeats REV.?
>>15137007
Yeah, I came to that conclusion very quickly. A lot of these songs are charts you MUST have played before to do well.
>>15137001
Notes, if you're asking what to look at.
>>15135931
Well I just played Pendual for the first time and it frightened me.
All sorts a shit I've never seen before as I've only ever played LR2.
And my worst nightmare came to pass, realizing that arcade timing would fuck my shit back to B' and C's.
Is there a way to make the lanes wider? That shit looks like Mini on ITG. I don't get to enjoy the video anyways, as I'm busying failing a song, it doesn't need to take up that much room.
And on the config.bat, what is VOFX and what is Effect? I assume one of them is "select" but I wasn't sure.
>>15137647
ask sows.
>>15137647
I just set my controls with bemanitools, i'm pretty sure select is effect
>>15137647
>lanes wider
No, as they're a decent width on an AC sized monitor
>video room
If you'd like to make the video smaller just turn on the score graph by holding START and scratching to select a pacemaker. This doesn't make lanes wider.
>what's VEFX and EFFECT
VEFX is used to change difficulties and also to access submenus when holding START. IF you only have one button besides START on your controller, bind it to this.
EFFECT is mainly used to switch between Floating Hi-Speed and Hi-Speed, allowing you to adjust your lane cover and green number independently with the turntable. It's also used to turn on/off the effectors, and to fail out of songs/quit Premium Free when you hold EFF+VEFX.
>>15137924
Thanks. Very helpful information. I'm guessing it doesn't look right because I'm on a 4:3 CRT (for muh refresh rate reasons)
Sorry for shitting up this thread with my technical support bullshit.
>>15138003
I wonder if it's possible to attach second monitor and run the game on two monitors simultaneously. Thus you'll get the left CRT one mostly for lanes.
>>15138019
Probably not.
Unless windowed.
I'm pretty new to this iidx business, but I've been trying out Empress CS for a while. What's the recommended "game level" setting? Should I just leave it at 3? What exactly does it change?
>>15138316
how strict the gauge is
leave it at 3
i hate the sound of clacking iidx keys in gameplay videos and streams but love the sound when playing myself
i wish i could carry around a mini sanwa button and just press it whenever
>>15138344
i wish i could experience this sound firsthand at all

>>15138003
IIDX always ran on a widescreen, even back on CRTs. No wonder you think the lanes are too tiny.
>>15138003
You could try to change the resolution to SD in the maintenance menu.
>>15139626
I have it on SD it'd still nightmarishly small.
>>15139660
That's because it runs at a really low resolution.

Interesting.
I recall keyboardmania having a very gentle learning curve. I played that fucker for a week or two and I was SSing almost everything. There were a couple of 6 "smilers" as I called them that remained unpassable, but other than that the whole game was quite "easy".
It was of course nothing compared to IIDX, but still, it was quite "easy".
Also, where and how are playing keyboardmania? I desire to play this fucking game almost at an infinite level. I played this gad damn thing at basically the highlight of my life and it's remained with me this whole time.
>>15149516

>It was of course nothing compared to IIDX
Do you have prior piano experience? I've never played one before and have to look down to hit the keys I want. At least there's a lot of practice options.
>Also, where and how are playing keyboardmania?
I'm playing the PC version with an old keyboard I have lying around. Its on sows as Keyboardmania PC.
>>15150411
No I didn't have any previous piano experience.
Also, PLEASE tell me how you got that shit working. I've downloaded it and failed to get it working. I've actually bought and returned two keyboards JUST to try and get this game working. Like what keyboard you're using, what USB Midi converter you're using, etc.
I just want to play Keyboadmania. Hell, I'm just about ready to buy an actual arcade cabinet.
>>15150517
Its an old Casio CPS-300. The midi cable is just some generic midi-to-usb one I found on amazon. I had a hard time getting it to work before finding out you're supposed to have the midi in cable plugged into the midi out port instead of having midi in put into the midi in port. I'm also on Windows 7 if that matters.
>>15150538
I've used 3 different keyboards and not a single one has worked. I've just plugged these fucking things into the computer via USA A to B cables.
Looks like I actually need a USB Midi converter. I too, am using Widows 7, so this god damn thing should work.
>>15150598
Your keyboards have usb ports? I've never seen that. But yeah im pretty sure the game only supports midi interfaces. Luckily though a usb-to-midi cable is only like $10.
>>15150720
Yeah, shit like this. Never worked.
>>15150053

I play on the bigger one. Is that the reason my score is only shit like B and A?
>>15154216
I don't know, retard, play on the smaller one and see if your scores dramatically improve.
As long as your FPS is constant to at least the hundredth's place (e.g. 60.05x) during monitor checking you should be fine.
>>15154254
They're about the same (with 59 fps being slightly better) so I guess the problem is me.
And it is constant for me so I guess I'll keep playing on the bigger monitor.
