I was collabing with Ayu on a beatmap, and we thought of the idea that we could have this special room for making beatmaps collaboratively.

What we propose is that you, the beatmap creator, can invite people to join a room, and in that room, you have the mapping interface, a chatroom, and a list of users in the room, with the map creator with special FX and on top.

There'd be a supervisor(the map creator), and the others in the room. The supervisor can give permissions to people in that room to either start placing objects and inherited sections, add hitsounds, and any other thing that would fit.

Note that this was OUR Idea. 50% Kudos to me plz.

Seems to be hard to implement, But yeah, epic proposal is epic +priority

I've thought of requesting this for a long time now. D33d and I discussed it a long time ago.

I hope this will be possible.

Would be fun ^^

Duplicate of t/23790, which is a duplicate of a denied request - this one is more well thought-out though, and the original thread was years ago, so let's give it another try for now.

Duplicated! It's already discussed long time ago.

...huh, for some reason I didn't notice the peppyveto while skimming. Should we mark this as a duplicate anyway, then?

^I don't know what you're talking about.

I highly doubt peppy would ever have the time to add this anyways (even if it is a good idea).

It sure would be nice though... Instead of waiting on someone, that may not even want to work on the collab., to map their part and send it to you and then having to add their timing points and hit objects to the .osu... That's not even including if their part is either garbage or unrankable.. :roll:

I really like this idea and it would make collaborating more efficient. If this is not well supported maybe a compromise can be made?

Cool!, but its not a minor change so dont spect it soon, there are too many things to coordinate and test for this to happen.
Support!

I like this idea a lot. And IMO it's not a duplicate since the idea (collab mapping) is unrelated to those in the old threads.

I'll make a deal: If someone creates a series of video tutorials on mapping in osu! – something I've hoped would have been done by now without even having to ask – I will put everything to one side and make something like this happen. This is not a new idea, and it is something I have been keen to implement, but there is a lot involved in making it work correctly.

Hell, I might even settle for new video tutorials on installing and loading new maps into osu! or anything really. I's so sad to see so few quality tutorial videos :(.

Sounds like a good deal. osu! really needs some video tutorials on mapping :(

I would love to help create those videos, but unfortunately, I have no idea about those cool awesome extravagant amazing fancy mapping techniques.
hell yeah. I don't map. My first map got graveyarded, and I submitted a new one lately, which is bound to be graveyarded again xD

Same here, I'm still a noob when it comes to mapping so I wouldn't be of much use... It looks like we'll have to get help from a pro if we want to get those videos made. :?

Quickly, to the thinking chamber!! \o/

One BAT/MAT ?

I've been learning quite a bit about mapping from the bit I've been doing, as well as talking with others who have ranked maps. I also have genuine knowledge on making good tutorials (clear voice, no stuttering, planned out & everything), so I could give it a shot.

EDIT: Question for those among you who are mappers - why HASN'T a tutorial series been done yet? I can't imagine every single person on here who has even a bit to know about mapping, and noone has thought to do as such yet.. unless some among you have thought about it, but didn't do it for a specific reason.

I think a large part of it would be a language thing, many many mappers are foreign and don't have good enough english to do a proper english tutorial

Other than that it comes down to :effort: and lack of knowledge on how to put one together.

I have seen video tutorials around, and I thought there was one posted in the FAQ, but none of them are that great or extensive

If we have any amount of foreign speakers who also speak english and are willing to contribute to a project like this, we could create a single tutorial video with a set-in-stone script and have versions in different languages. It'd need to be really solid, though.

This isn't a place to discuss making video tutorials, this is a place to discuss the current request, there are a few threads regarding tutorials if you look for them, it'd be best to just ask mappers or learn mapping yourself and then make them, and once they're done post them in a thread in the beatmapping general questions.
jemhuntr
can't there be more proper mapping techniques in the wiki?? I could make a real noob timing help video since I'm only good at timing maps xD
I timed like 20 songs but never placed any circle on them xD
