Can you make a mock-up picture of this? I have no idea what it would look like.mm201 wrote:
My thought is flashing the border of the head circle with a black and white stipple.
Or I could make them violet for increase and royal blue for decreases! UFUFUFUFUU!Lybydose wrote:
Anyway, why not just make the dots in the ring red for increase and blue for decrease? Slow sliders are just as hard, if not harder that speed ups.
This would be pretty awesomeeeeeemm201 wrote:
No really, I was going to spin the dots faster for increases, and slower + in the opposite direction for decreases.
Awesome indeed however it would take more time to get used to than a simple blue/red, how about not only sliders but hitcircles overlays and slider borders flash (at half bpm rate) when there's an inherited section altering the BPM.Derekku wrote:

I don't like the aesthetic implications of forcing objects to a certain colour.
I don't like the aesthetic implications of forcing objects to a certain colourJust leave them both black by default (or white for black overlays/borders) and there is no problem with forced ugly color combinations or anything. If a player chooses to set colors, it's his own fault if it looks ugly and nobody can be blamed
Yeah, that would already be more than enough.mm201 wrote:
Colour tinting the overlays would be fine. Doing stuff to slider tracks isn't worth the effort involved.
yeah that's already enough i think.mm201 wrote:

how about when mappers skin black hitcircle overlays then... (or too dark in general), since hitcircle overlays dont have a measured color, but the color from the skin, it would probably add to the color, but black stays black no matter what colour you addLuna wrote:

Hmmmm, instead of alternating black/transparent, they could alternate black and opaque white.
Using black and white and using direction as a hint, its probably going to trip me more than if there were colours, i'd recommend opaque white and opaque red/blue depending on if it's increase/decrease respectively, or let the players decide their speed up/slow down colours in the optionsmm201 wrote:

We already find the best solution for it!mm201 wrote:
It would be a skinnable image.
Since it is a skin element, I assume it will be visible as wellLilac wrote:
Question. What happens with current ranked maps if this does get implemented?
Since it's skinnable it could be added to the default skin, which since its a missing element of all map skins it wouldnt override itLilac wrote:
I'm just thinking with certain combo colours and skins that exist on current maps that it might not turn out great for some...
...Never mind me though.
It will be skinnable, so you can probably just replace it with a transparent 1x1pt *.png and you won't be distracted any more~ouranhshc wrote:

Dude, he wouldn't even need to do that, since mm201 thought of people who would find it distracting:Luna wrote:

It would also be disableable, for those who don't need it or who would be bothered more by it than the speed changes themselves.
That's kind of cool. It'd be neat if the black dots could slide along the whole sliderborder, but I can understand how that would be troublesomemm201 wrote:
The speed change ratio would need to be greater than 2:3 to show any warning.
The dotted ring would rotate.
Bad idea using flashlight.anzo-nii wrote:
Just suggesting...
A skinnable notification (image) on the lower-right portion of the screen...
If the slider speed is slower than normal, it will display something like a slow icon while having pulse on the beat, just like combo.
Also if the slider speed if faster than normal, but a different image...
If it gets back to normal, the current image also disappears.
