HHHHHHHHHNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

@yuan: I intentionally made the kiai time be very dense. I also intentionally make it have the same feel as lepi's mei, ryougen, or kamikaze in that the patterns aren't the regular ones that we usually see.

Maybe Zekira should try it out since he's used to this stuff.

Let me DL it then...

EDIT: you're a bit obsessed with Dons on the non-kiai part

And there are some parts where it does seem like you didn't know what you wanted to put, lol

Now about the kiai; listening to the piano channel, I don't think it's inappropriate. It's definitely hard for me though; osu!Taiko this big difficulty cap of having a smaller scroll. Not to mention I haven't played osu!Taiko in a long time.

So yeah, I'm OK with the map. I doubt I can FC it without taking it seriously though.

Yeah the bit right before the slow-down in the middle is difficult to map drumsounds
into without spamming dons.
Gee I wonder who had the idea of making that kind of piano sounds…

777's style?
oh myyyyyyyyyyyyyy goooooooooooooooooood
..............i give up 777's style
it's kill my hand @ @

To me,I'd rather go with the flow and map naturally.
I'd just let the song's rhythm and melody determine the
patterns

If I make a taikomap just for the sake of creating a batshit
difficult map,I'll end up with a shitty map with patterns that
don't even fit the rhythm *coughNagekinoKicough*

i want join yours talk..
but i have poor English
i m so sorry
but i ll try my best !

Gee I wonder who had the idea of making that kind of piano sounds…

TBH I found this to be common among IIDX songs, for some reason....

Lol you.






Hm... when I make a custom Taiko map, a large portion of my sequence choices is actually affected by my Pop'nSense, while the patterns are majorly from TaikoSense. With that, I can at least assure that I'm putting notes on instruments most of the time lol

please....do not make taiko map like this...
It's too hard and ridiculous

But it depends on the song, really...

So kiai part is overmapped then. As for the part before the slowdown, I guess I went with a lot of dons is because the first part of that was full of kats. I guess I was subconsciously trying it balance it out. As far as mapping style, whenever I make a map, I try to match it to either the drums or the major instrument at the time (whichever depends on the situation). The piano during the kiai part was quite complex, so that probably influenced my decision to make the patterns random; kind of like lepi's chart for Mei.

@yuan: I wasn't actually going for a firce style map. If I was, that would be MUCH MORE difficult than it is right now.

Off-topic: IDK why, but I'm in some sort of an IIDX kick right now. I feel like buying all the CS games just for the hell of it.

EDIT: Yeah, it depends on the song. Some warrant a crazy chart to match the feel of the song. Others make crazy charts feel silly instead.

Himiko

I'll find the DL links later

@anongos Himiko has a slower BPM in the middle part (HS 0.5,to be exact.The final part's around 86)
and you might need to set timing sections in the song too

Ah, okay. I actually took the timing off of the ranked standard map. I'll change it then.

well .
Do you have the "not yet submitted" beatmap? I want you show me the link,,that i can download
actually i like play no rank map
so i can catch up with my achievement
like this-

Here's one from a while ago:
http://www.mediafire.com/?z8mkzlgkc7voltm

This one is not nearly as hard as my Himiko map.

Hm... guys, there's this one dude over at GCC that likes to request a BG or something (for an osu! map that he's still not telling me which song it is)

Basically it's winter themed, and it has Ai-chan (Koibumi) and Yuki (Senpuu-Blue) in it, holding hands together and just walking in some direction. Actually, winter-night themed, to be more precise

This will be his first map so I don't really trust him on this, but anyone using a chibianthro BG is fine by me... especially a pair that I ship . I'm still wondering what song he's going to use though >_>

P.S. apparently it's not a 765 original

Not a Manco original?


WTF AM I THINKING OF SHION



Derp,IDK if I can help ya with that one...all I can do is to draw the two,
then leave the rest for you guys to finish.
Kinda like that what we did with WRI's BG

Hm, the only ideas I can get for a winter-themed background is the typical SNOW GOOSE, SNOW EVERYWHERE scheme. And since it's a winter-night it'll be something like, walking on the streetside with the night lights open or smth like that, and moar snow everywhere

IDK

Well orz

AND THAT SMOOOOOCH PIC IS JUST PERFECT





except for a few points (orz)




I still have no complaints about it though; it's got LOLITenyou, ZeroKilu, indirect Rotter Saitamanation, lolShibou, Senpuu nosebleed-ish cuteness, and other stuff

the 'except' parts:

1.) Sengoku. You should've used the new Sengoku design.
2.) Or replaced him with Gekka instead (Fuugetsu )
3.) You forgot the chain on Kiluna's waist
4.) It's just me but I was actually expecting TCC over Hyakka somewhere there; I still lol at the Yozakura Modo pic.

I also have BD on 7th day. Happy BD to mekadon.

HOORAY FOR SEPTEMBER! (obligatory) EXTREMELY ADVANCE HAPPY B-DAY TO YOU AS WELL!

God I love September, since I was born in this month too.

Actually, there's no limit to how high difficulty levels can go. It's just that in-game, it can only display up to 5 stars.
If you check the submission thread of any song, you can see the difficulty level to 2 decimal places.

@above: uh, if you actually look at the thread of that song it actually became 5 stars. Beatmap Listing, it's 5.22.

Wait a minute, "522" is a magic number for games, I just don't remember what it is...



Oh and yeah you can Edit the submission thread to 'alter the star rating of that difficulty'. I've done this too many times lol (check viewtopic.php?t=18749)

anongos wrote:

Have you been using the Taiko skin all this time? That may explain it. Since half a star is cutting the image of the star in half, LH made two stars so the right one would be cut off in the case of a half-star, hence giving the illusion that it goes up to 10 stars.

Yes, I have. I refuse to use any other skin, unless it looks even closer to TnT than the one LH made.

And sudden update from Taiko Blog! Something about the new Taiko arcade, which is related to the 10 big News!

I have no idea what it freaking says though, so can someone else post it on Taiko Time please :<

Backfire wrote:

And here's another user that's confused.

LH was the one who first made the skin.

Frank made another version which is more TnT authentic, but sacrifices osu! usability.

Frank's skin is downloaded manually through the forums. LH's skin is downloaded through the osu! updater.

Goddammit ninja

All I can catch is that the new cab will be shown in the Amusement Machine show held on September 17th

Another spot on the big 10 that's of no big news to us. I'm starting to doubt that we're going to get something with the last 4 that will REALLY excite us.

I think some of us here are actually going to benefit from this one, you know

...........will crystal's Namco card finally be used? lol

Nooooo, im not confused ><
Franks skin thing is like an add on to LH's. I was saying, if you were to play with that, it'd be about as authentic as you can get.

Maybe.

After all,Manco DID decide to do their location test of Tekken right in NWP
The new tekken cabs are no longer there,but at least it shows that Manco might
introduce other cabs with Bana Passport support

Again, another reason why I'm extremely jelly of you people in Asia.

Blame the info leak, but there's nothing of note in that entry, just a more high-res picture of the cabinet and the Banapassport thing.

If there was going to be another console Taiko in the remaining four it would already be leaked by Famitsu or something two weeks prior

Feel sad whenever I heard about new arcade machine cause I estimate 0 arcade center here will buy that.

Gut feeling tells me NWP might import that.

So far it imported AC9,11,12 APPEND and 14.
(AC14 as it is,not AC14 APPEND)
Looks like it imports every other Taiko AC here eh…
Maaaybe it'll import AC15,but that's just my little WMG

I don't think Namco is going to call it AC15 anymore.

This might be the perfect chance for me to do a beatmania->IIDX/Taiko->new cab
parallelism,but nooooooooo I've already been using Taikomania IIDX already


I am an idiot

Speaking of, if none of those announcements is 76573, I'm going to wear girl's underwear for a day. -_________________-

Don't forget guys, September downloadable songs for PSPDX is tomorrow!






And time for off-topic modo

Anyone notice that I've disappeared for a long while tonight?

Well, I just recently bought myself a new DVD Writer (finally), so I was able to burn a crapload of PS2 games again!

And for today... My fingers are insanely sore and my palm is crying. However, they are finally baptized with one of the most cruel rhythm games ever.

Today marks the day I make first contact with IIDX! lol

Unfortunately, no, I don't have an authentic IIDX controller. I however cannot bare using the dualshock for this game. I do not want to be trapped like what's happening with me in PnM! So I had to improvise...

Random bootleg fightstick that is absolutely horrible compared to the real ones, go!



The 4 buttons at the bottom are for the bottom buttons, while the 3 right most are for the top buttons. The turntable is mapped to the stick, which is not seen here. I use my wrist to hit the turntable. Retarded, I know.

Obviously, this is going to be horrible as an IIDX controller. But I don't have anything better, anyway. And it's much better than using a dualshock.

Tilt it a few degrees counter clockwise so that the top buttons are a bit more centered. The distancing is still horrible as ever, I know.



So what did I do? Of course I booted up Disc 2 of IIDX16 CS and







Obviously I failed my first 50 plays. I don't see any surprises there myself.

BTW everything I'm playing is obviously all on Normal diff. Don't expect me to move to Hyper in the next 3 weeks though. And as for Another diff... oh god give me another lifetime or something. Or 2, since I might not be able to still get an IIDX controller in my next life lol

I couldn't really describe what I felt, but all I can say is that after playing until 22:30 (starting from around 19:00) I think I'm comfortable with clearing 4-stars now. For some odd reason for me HS2.0 is actually kind of hard to read with songs over 180 BPM though T_T

I switched to Disc 1 in the middle because I figured that Disc 2 seemed to be a compilation of IIDX favorites, which means that there were almost absolutely no newbie friendly songs in there. But hey, this game isn't newbie friendly at all, so yeah.



And it's a good thing 16IIDX CS had some of the modern 573 favorites. Stuck with those instead. smooooch in particular was fortunately borderlining my skill, so I think I played that for about an hour straight to get used to the controls. Not sure how much good it did to me, but I'm able to pass Rin to Shite comfortably at least. BTW I also played Rin to Shite for a good hour too, I think.

When I felt that I was getting really tired, I tried looking at smooooch's Hyper. And first impressions? Hyper looks like a very exciting difficulty to play.

Also played a few 4 star and 5 star songs I heard for the first time. Unfortunately I don't remember their titles. Lol.



Now for a bit more ranting/impression elaboration

With my improvised 'controller', hitting tuirntable + the leftmost button becomes insanely retarded.

OR it could possibly be the PnM PSP curse getting to me; my right hand absolutely does not want to hit buttons on the left part of the controller, and vice versa. Even that short 4-6-4-6-4 5-note stream on Rin to Shite, I noticed, is always done by my right hand (two fingers, obvs), with my left hand left stationary. Same thing happened to me when I played PnM CS in Singapore. Ugh.

As for my general impessions on the game itself? I'm not sure what to feel about its non-newbie friendliness. IMO, you absolutely CANNOT start a rhythm game career with IIDX. Nope, definitely not. Or maybe that's because I jumped immediately to 7 buttons. Wait, does this game even have 5 button? The Normal notecharts already equate to the 9-button notecharts of PnM. And Normal is the easiest difficulty. That's very unforgiving if you ask me. This game also has the most unforgiving HP mechanics ever. It's like impossible to pass a song if your ranking is lower than A. Seriously. And it also has the same PnM-HP curses as the two games have similar HP systems... just that IIDX is more strict in its life recovery. ._.

Hm... what else do I want to say... I think I'm out of words here.

Oh well. Fingers are sore, left wrist is unreasonably dead. And I've been IIDX baptized. Still not sure what to feel orz.

Oh yeah did I mention?AC IIDX has Hyper by default.
You heard me right,Hyper.
(AC IIDX18 has beginner mode for,well,beginners.So that could be Konmai's way of introducing IIDX to newbs.
But once they try out standard…)

IIRC,Konmai did away with 5-button mode pretty early on.Now it's 7-button
only,even on beginner mode

And yeah,IIDX is pretty infamous for being unforgiving (Keymani and some PnM boss songs
can still kick its ass though).As for the meter…let's say 78% is most IIDXers' nightmare

Oh yeah did I mention?AC IIDX has Hyper by default.
You heard me right,Hyper.

Hyper is also the default in CS. Good thing I noticed immediately, lest I would've thrown my PS2 away lol

OH and yeah I think I DID see a Beginner option somewhere in the main menu. I don't remember. I went straight to Training orz

Who said that it's almost impossible to pass with below A? I can clear ALL MY TURN with a B and passed. Though I cleared all at the near end.

Summed up, if you have shit acc and get no miss at the 30 seconds near the end you can pass it.

Speaking about TnT, I'll think they'll just call it Taiko no Tatsujin or something (yeah it has online updatez rite?)

Meh, Malaysia had just got 14 and haven't tried yet. If it's APPEND then someone should have unlocked it. Also highscores will be dominated by proz.

Waiting for Singapore to get that though, since fanbase there is like the 2nd largest after jubeat.

Shows that the groove meter system is crazy.
Even if ya AAA'd most of the song,if ya get a bunch of misses near the end
you're still going to fail the stage

In short,ya wanna pass a song?Don't eff up at the end.And guess where Konmai
often puts the difficulty spikes in?

Cue player ragequitting

+ frequent taiko tournaments as well lol

also staying in Malaysia for one more year again as my final year in uni.

And then,
TAIKO+IIDX+JUBEAT+CRANE MACHINES (what) EVERYDAY xD

@crystal That incident, always happened to me orz

Clear everything, miss shittons at the end = fail

Game over. Lose credits.

;_;

...............stop adding to my jelly, damn it!

All we have here are gatherings and tournaments organized by HKtaiko (usually)
