Thank you.
>Cute has less voiced idols than Passion or Cool.
makes me wonder who will be the newly voiced cute after Rina, Karin, Yukari and Noriko.
Yuuki, Hiromi and Clawli seem to be the next ones that are possible, as well the Cute Squares.
Kirarin is tall
>>147918426
Holy shit that's awesome
>>147918391
Outside elections, Bamco will voice whoever the fuck they want.
And during elections, the super popular voiced Cutes will always cockblock the unvoiceds.
>>147910131
Probably too late, but what's surprising about it? I thought it was quite normal for her to get excited.
>>147918391

I would absolutely love this.
>>147918391
CutePs only care about a few idols. CoolPs and PassionPs are more generous and spread their love around.

It's cool, I'll pick things back up near the end of the month. And I don't leave until the middle of next week anyway, so at least I can try for the commus from tomorrow's event.

I want to believe in those thighs.
>>147926791
Thanks for all your work.
Well guys, the dream is over. Last 60 daily roll and all my leftover gems spent, still no Yui to show. Almost broke down and went to buy more gems but JP iTunes cards are too expensive for me right now.
why even play anymore.
>>147926839
Because she'll get a non-limited SSR one day like everyone else and you can look at the card art for the swimsuit one all the time anyways, so you aren't missing that much except a stage model, and how much time do you REALLY spend watching MVs?
>>147926839
What if she got a second nonlimited SSR
and it wasn't shit
>>147922647
Thank you.
>>147926839
Well, you could quit.
Who am I kidding. You can't. You're stuck with it.
But at least you didn't spend money beyond dailies, so that's something.
>>147926982

Haha.

>>147923161
You know, one thing I really liked about the anime is that the animation for each character that was dancing was off by just so few frames a second that it felt like each character was dancing as a part of a group. I wish that SS at least skewed each characters' routine by a few tenths of a second in order to make it feel more organic.Looking at this, it's all just so synchronised that it feels deep in the uncanny valley.
>>147927782
>I wish that SS at least skewed each characters' routine by a few tenths of a second in order to make it feel more organic
Funny thing you mention that, because it actually does it.
And she later molested herself to death.

Let's not get into the "Deresute Choreography" issue any time soon please.
>>147927782
Yeah, about that.
>>147927782
But they are delayed. It's not like it's a complex routine, so, them being well synchronized isn't all that odd.
>>147927782
It does, though. I noticed it watching M@gic.
>>147927782
They actually do that.
Someone playing around with the game files once put all the idol models in the same slot. It's evident that the other idool positions are a few frames behind esch other.
It ended up looking like they were channeling some multi-armed hindu god or some shit.

>>147926968
Ehh, not having the card still drives me mad though. I'm still upset the Snow Wings event happened while I wasn't playing and I don't have that either. I've been even worse with this since they added the Producer Diary and I have to look at it knowing I can never fill her page.
I'm a weirdo who only really plays for the one character, I've got the N+ Yui in the center of my main unit surrounded by SR+s and SSR+s that I think seem cool, I don't even know what they do or what skills are there.
I know its 'just a stage model' but its a way to make her unique amongst everyone else so she can stand out and shine more in my roster. I don't spend ANY time watching MVs technically, since I'm barely good enough to beat Pro level tracks, but I like having her center stage for each new song I take on.
>>147927163
I probably won't quit, yeah. But I feel like I'll definitely slow down now. Was going pretty hard trying to hit Lv50 and be legit but ehhh.
Guess I'll just stock up gems forever until her next card.
>>147927781

>>147928694
Uh... $25 AUD for a 1500yen card was the best deal I could find when Yui came out. That's the only time I've spent money on the game so far.
>>147928886
I was told at Lv50 there's no more level grinds between new songs and since they just added that 2nd Room at the same level I was under the impression that's when I don't have to worry about anything being potentially locked off.

Viewing Revolution is literally using SS assets. Why wouldn't she be in it?

I guess she might be, if they want to push the Cinderella Master tracks more, she'd show up for Snow Wings.

Nah bro, I'm totally serious. Choreography data is HUGE. That's the reason why Starlight Stage only has one dance routine for each song. It'd make the game unplayable on low-end phones if there were multiple choreography tracks. We've discussed this at length before.

What? That's what was decided on as the absolute truth in previous discussions, right?

That's what everyone said and agreed on, right?

Actually, I claimed that there's no real reason why there couldn't be multiple choreography tracks at once, and everyone told me I was wrong and that it's impossible because it'd make the data downloads too big. I mean, a single choreography track is like... 4MB! FOUR WHOLE MEGABYTES! Man, I'm surprised modern smartphones can handle such a thing.

>and you can't even use the search function without being a member.
You can actually.
>>147931790
You're not the only one who can be an autist, so let me just summarize it.
A single animationclip for choreography can be around 2 MB, compressed.
Example: http://storage.game.starlight-stage.jp/dl/resources/High/AssetBundles/Android/934048359d484d5d9a02ec2923a04c3e
This for around 70 songs (and there will be more to come) will take upto like 140 MB.
If you had 5 times this, it'll be going beyond 500 MB just for the choreography.
If you can't see why this is going to be a problem for a casual phone game that the devs need to make accessible to as many people as possible, then you're a fucking idiot.

B-but the problem is that the devs are lazy with the choreography! ML has better choreography than CG!
>>147932378
>If you had 5 times this, it'll be going beyond 500 MB just for the choreography.
Delta compression. There's no need for each animation track to be completely different. You'd only need a few hundred kilobytes at most per song to have some of the characters move a bit differently.
>>147932579
>>147926968
Actually, I love taking screenshots of my SSRs, not only because shit's pretty yo, but I also use them as multiple POV reference guides when drawing outfits, since 3D renders are rare to come across. But this only works for SSRs I have, and of course, not for the ones I don't have...

>>147932664
>a bit differently
They already move a "bit" differently.
For significant changes, you'll need separate animationclips. It's quite possible to splice parts together and have the common parts in one clip. But the size will again increase as you start making the changes more significant. If the changes aren't significant, you'll again claim they're lazy.

>>147932863
>>147933034
>>147932903
The only differences present now are rotation and delay. It's the same data track. There's no reason why they couldn't use delta encoding to have the characters move a bit differently. Even if it's just a different end pose for each character, at the very least. Having characters actually turn and face different directions during different parts of the song, without just spinning them in place. There's no reason whatsoever why they couldn't do that. And if they can have song-specific stages and assets (some of which must be at least a dozen megabytes per song), then surely they can spare a few hundred kilobytes for additional data tracks.
I'm not expecting every character to have completely different animation tracks. Even in the mainline console games, the dances are usually synced 90% of the time, with variances only during specific parts of the songs. I'm asking that they at least try to match what iDOLM@STER Arcade did a decade ago. That was PS2-tier hardware. Literally.

>Even if it's just a different end pose for each character, at the very least. Having characters actually turn and face different directions during different parts of the song, without just spinning them in place.
For each part where body movements differ, different animationclips will be required. Turning head is not independent of the rest of the body.
>And if they can have song-specific stages and assets (some of which must be at least a dozen megabytes per song)
A single stage's data is like less than 1 MB, compressed.
Example: http://storage.game.starlight-stage.jp/dl/resources/High/AssetBundles/Android/47da6fb5f00225aa0e116613ea8c423e
And there are very few songs that have a unique stage.
You really are just talking with nothing but your assumptions as basis, aren't you? I suggest you take a look at the game files and form your conclusions off those rather than making assumptions and going by those.
>That was PS2-tier hardware. Literally.
This is not a matter of processing power. PS2 games can easily go upto like 4 GB. Phone games don't have this luxury.
This is probably the last post I make about this, but I do have enough time for more if necessary.

>>147935024
>For each part where body movements differ, different animationclips will be required. Turning head is not independent of the rest of the body.
And those animationclips can be stored together as a single delta-compressed file, not much bigger than the existing ones. Additional data would only be required for the parts that differ, which wouldn't be the full track.
>And there are very few songs that have a unique stage.
Then there shouldn't be a problem with a few songs, such as the Starlight Master tracks, having multiple choreography tracks, especially if the additional data is only a few hundred kilobytes per song.
>This is not a matter of processing power. PS2 games can easily go upto like 4 GB. Phone games don't have this luxury.
I didn't say anything about processing power. Delta encoded choreography data won't take 4GB. You yourself said that even in a worse-case scenario, it would only be 10MB per song, and that's with zero delta encoding. As for RAM usage? Well...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Namco_System_246
iDOLM@STER Arcade ran on a system with a whopping 32MB of RAM. It had multiple choreography tracks. I'm pretty goddamn fucking sure a modern smartphone, even a low-end one, would be able to handle decompressing delta encoded data into RAM in order to render multiple choreography tracks at once.
I will repeat my original claim: There are no technical limitations that would prevent the use of multiple choreography tracks in Starlight Stage.
>>147935024
>PS2 games can easily go upto like 4 GB. Phone games don't have this luxury.
Not that guy, but not even getting into the rest of that, but that's completely bullshit. Firstly, you won't hardly find a smartphone under 8 gigs of storage. And secondly, you can delete and redownload data as needed in the game, as opposed to a PS2 game where all the data had to be on the disc.
> but I do have enough time for more if necessary

Not them but you must be new around here if you honestly think that.

>>147935839
>>147935602
You keep talking about delta compression, but the game is using lz4 compression over anything else because of its speed. The game loads a lot of assets when starting a song, and every single one of them needs to be decompressed on the fly. This fast decompression is why we don't see long loading screens. That's why we don't hear ROADINGU ROADINGU. That's why a song loads pretty much instantly.
The negative side is that with this compression, you can't just make a file out of the difference between two files.
But most people will pick quick loading over small changes to choreography.
>>147935637
>Firstly, you won't hardly find a smartphone under 8 gigs of storage. And secondly, you can delete and redownload data as needed in the game
This is exactly what won't work for a casual phone game that they need to make accessible to a huge majority of people. People don't just keep their phones for this app alone. They use many, many other apps, a lot that take space. And if this game is very large, only a very few will prioritize it over other apps they use. That will not work for devs or publishers.
Same goes for deleting and redownloading. People can't be arsed. Most will just get rid of the game and be done with it.
And I won't be condescending if the poster I'm responding to isn't an idiot.

Do you want the Initial D albums, or eurobeat?
Eurobeat was all released, generally, under the "Super Eurobeat," Volumes 1 through over 200, covering like 2 or 3 decades of music.
the Initial D albums are basically just a small selection of the SEB catalog. Definitely get Initial D D Selection, Super Eurobeat Presents Initial D Final D Selection, Disc 2, (this one is a nonstop and it's rad).
Here's a bluebird to keep us on topic.
Can we post sweaty, smelly idols?

Switching to a two-stage compression method for a mere 2-3MB file would barely increase loading times. Delta-encoded data could be stored within the lz4n file. It likely wouldn't even be noticeable at all. I assure you that the majority of loading time isn't spent processing that animationclip file. It's spent loading meshes, textures and shaders. Spending a tiny bit of extra time doing delta decompression of the choreography data wouldn't increase load times by any notable amount. Not even a single second.
Obviously the solution is to put the game on the blockchain™

Some low end phones can barely handle low quality 3D mode at 30fps as is, actually.
>>147935839
>>147936027
I agree those cutouts look very cute.
>>147937629
>Afuuu
>>147938162
Good thing there's a 2D mode to fall back on.
>>147938260
>oh, this one guy wanted small differences so now you can't have 3d mode too bad
>>147938260
Yes let's limit the people who can run 3D mode even further.
>>147937532
the Super Eurobeat label has been going on for a long time; it's an enormous catalog and Initial D samples only a small (very popular) fragment of it.
The only one I can specifically recommend off the top of my head is Super Eurobeat Vol. 182 because it has this track https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9WM-VWFbdnE on it. When I listen to eurobeat I either just let however many albums I have play, or I go to Initial D D Selection because that's the soundtrack of First Stage, which I think is my favorite (and some songs recur in later stages).
>>147937424
No idea, I don't really CG at all. I'm a ML sort of man.
In my head she drives a RX-3, because that would be Cool, but Japan makes owning a car so fucking odious it's probably some kei car to minimize the ridiculous cost of gasoline as well as the stupid amount of taxes.
>>147937629
I see you, nanocar, and raise you a Miura.
>>147936883
I'm pretty sure you can still get the Initial D albums off of bakabt
Though if you want to be a cool dude like me and get the Super Eurobeat Volumes I know there's a torrent for that lying around somewhere

Keep in mind that the choreography track is already delayed between different characters, so it's not as if all onscreen characters are using the exact same data in each frame. Each character likely already has their own animation data independently stored in RAM, seeing as the game needs to process the data for characters of different heights, etc...
If the developers were really concerned with performance, then why not present options to remove the lighting effects? Shader effects? Simplify the models? Reduce the texture resolution? Remove the crowd? Reduce the physics simulation rate?
Because anon, there's a minimum standard. I'm simply asking that the minimum standard be the one set by iDOLM@STER Arcade a decade ago.
>>147938541
Volumes 191-195 also have some good tracks
>>147938541
I see. I might just check out the whole Super Eurobeat thing, then.
>>147938670
I wouldn't mind a link if you have one.
>>147939227
You could always just sign up for the site.
Please understand.
>>147939298
I've had a link to the Initial D one since anon shared it and told me to just google bakabt pages. I'm just thinking about checking out more of this Super Eurobeat.

Not that guy, but thats why Low 3D and High 3D options exist in game. Further MV options help address those issues as well.

Sweet lord. I'll have to break out my external storage again.
Thanks though.
>>147930892
the HiFi Days CD and the im@s catalog book, still waiting for them
before that some non-h l@lis doujins
>>147940245
Yeah, but if they were really concerned with low-end phones, they could push it even further.
But that's exactly why the 2D options exist. They accept that there are some phones that just simply will not be able to handle the 3D graphics.
But I remain adamant in my belief that a mobile phone game in 2015/2016 should at least meet the standard set by a PS2 game in 2005.
One day Chihaya will stop being so technologically inept and won't require anons to spoonfeed her anymore.
One day.

The initial D albums are pretty straight forward and don't need a whole lot of nitpicking because of what >>147938541 said it's all the good stuff. You're probably gonna spend a lot of time organizing the Super Eurobeat collection. It'll be worth it though

You do realize that phone games in general barely match what was achieved in ps1 games, right? There are some graphically impressive games, sure, but these almost universally play like shit.
And, you may not have realized it yet, but for deresute, the MVs are just a bonus. It's a rhythm game first and foremost. It's great that you can watch something happening in the back while playing, much like more advanced rhythm games on arcades and consoles, but phone rhythm games backgrounds mostly consist of a almost featureless still images.
Thank god I don't have that anon developing my mobages.

>>147939915
Understand!
>>147941715
Understand! Understand!

>>147941654
Starlight Stage is certainly more graphically advanced than a PS1 game.
In any case, I still think it should meet the standard set by the first iDOLM@STER game.

>>147942218
Fred no!
>>147942218
Fred yes!
>>147942218
Good job, Fred!
Aw yeah, Nina in Ace Attorney.
>>147941654
>>147940463
Hell, if you want to go into the idol rhythm games categories, the simple MVs from deresute come off as a huge jump.
LLSIF only has 2D mode with a picture of the stage, and that doesn't even have 2D sprites of the idols to populate the backgrounds.
T7th has a disk where the portraits go and nothing else.
GFNote on 3D only had one girl at a time, but you can change her outfit so whatever I guess. 2D is the same as SIF.
There are also more of them I forgot the names off, but it's either one 3D girl with huge performance issues on low end phones, or still images.
>>147942218
Yeah Fred, lets go crack the safe now.
>>147942546
I'm saving her.
>>147942546
I'm going to copy this but swap Nina with Minami and swap SOS with SEX
>>147943204
Post pics later.
>>147943204
>>147943204
Do it!
>>147941632
Well I'm about to work but I'll sort all that later. And thanks again.
>>147943204
Sounds perfectly reasonable
>>147943204
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=je9-3CjXWOI
>>147943273
>>147943353
Or rather I would but I don't have mizugi Minami
>>147943204
Stop, just stop.
>>147943495
Just use flasher Minami
>>147943963
I would but I only have Valkyria Minami
>>147944056
Captain got shipwrecked, nothing wrong with that
>>147944327
But then it'd make more sense to have SOS, not SEX. I don't even have an N Minami right now so I'll just leave it for someone else to do.
>>147942546
Why do all l@lis suffer the same fate

How are you going to have the beach on top of the building? You need the proper background with the night sky.
>>147946398
>Top of a building
Yeah nice fucking island, you only had one job
>>147946636
And that job was to produce idols, not be a fucking interior goddamn decorator.
