09:09 Tornspirit: hey do you mind testing out a map for me
09:09 *Tornspirit is listening to [http://osu.ppy.sh/b/496512 Varien - The Scarlet Dawn]
09:10 Quick Draw: Yo sure thing
09:10 Quick Draw: 1 sec will just finish playing this one
09:10 Tornspirit: aight
09:11 Quick Draw: kk downloadin'
09:11 Tornspirit: `i may or may not have put a 360kbps mp3 in there
09:11 Tornspirit: .
09:11 Tornspirit: i'll compress it some time later lol
09:11 Quick Draw: haha
09:12 Quick Draw: kk testing now
09:12 Quick Draw: what note am I missing there every time?
09:12 Tornspirit: o.o
09:12 Tornspirit: idk
09:13 Tornspirit: you pause before you get to it on my end
09:13 Quick Draw: O_O
09:13 Quick Draw: wtf lol
09:16 Quick Draw: WTF
09:16 Quick Draw: how did I manage
09:16 Quick Draw: to alt tab
09:16 Quick Draw: that
09:16 Tornspirit: wat
09:16 Quick Draw: is an achievement
09:16 Tornspirit: LOL
09:16 Quick Draw: oh god I can't long note
09:16 Quick Draw: how does one long note
09:17 Quick Draw: Awesomer map man
09:17 Tornspirit: well first you mash your keyboard
09:17 Tornspirit: then you stop mashing your keyboard
09:17 Tornspirit: and bam long note
09:17 Quick Draw: There were 2 SV changes that could be change though
09:17 Quick Draw: I'll try and find them
09:17 Tornspirit: i think the SV is fairly easy to read after the first time but ye it's a bit iffy first time
09:18 Tornspirit: once you know the song it shouldn't be a problem but i might make it slightly easier
09:18 Quick Draw: There's just a single one
09:18 Quick Draw: Where
09:18 Quick Draw: all those sets of 3 chords
09:18 Quick Draw: towards the start are
09:18 Quick Draw: They're all smooth to read
09:19 Quick Draw: except there's a random one in there
09:19 Quick Draw: that slows down
09:19 Quick Draw: instead of speeding up
09:19 Tornspirit: oh yeah
09:19 Quick Draw: where the rest speed up
09:19 Quick Draw: that was killer
09:19 Tornspirit: i think i saw that
09:19 Tornspirit: i was like
09:19 Tornspirit: wait
09:19 Tornspirit: that's not right
09:19 Quick Draw: I can't find it in the editor lol
09:20 Tornspirit: WTF
09:20 Tornspirit: how did i manage
09:20 Tornspirit: to do that
09:20 Quick Draw: Lol, did you find it?
09:21 Tornspirit: i put the slow sv right after the speedup rather than right before the next set of chords
09:21 Tornspirit: 00:42:163 -
09:21 Tornspirit: aight should be fixed now
09:21 Quick Draw: awesome
09:21 Quick Draw: Tell me when it's updated
09:21 Quick Draw: I'll re-test that section
09:22 Tornspirit: i might as well compress the mp3 now
09:22 Quick Draw: kk
09:22 Tornspirit: anything else you thought could be improved?
09:22 Quick Draw: Use audacity
09:22 Quick Draw: Probably the best quality for compression
09:22 Quick Draw: ahh
09:22 Quick Draw: i remember a part
09:22 Quick Draw: towards the end
09:22 Quick Draw: let me find it
09:23 Quick Draw: All these notes
09:23 Quick Draw: 02:13:127 (133127|4,133127|3) -
09:23 Quick Draw: The SV changes there are great
09:23 Quick Draw: but a bit too fast
09:23 Tornspirit: ah
09:23 Quick Draw: I'd reduce it a little
09:23 Quick Draw: Only a tad though
09:23 Tornspirit: i originally had them on x2 lol
09:23 Tornspirit: they're on 1.75 now
09:23 Quick Draw: It's just a little too fast to read the notes coming at the end for mid level players like me
09:23 Tornspirit: i'll try 1.5 - 1.6
09:23 Quick Draw: 1.5 would probably be great
09:24 Tornspirit: oh i remember i tried 1.5 but i felt like the sv didn't feel impactful enough
09:24 Tornspirit: then i settled on 1.75
09:24 Tornspirit: hmmm
09:25 Quick Draw: Ahhk
09:25 Quick Draw: It's up to you
09:25 Tornspirit: i think
09:25 Tornspirit: 1.6 is good
09:25 Quick Draw: it might just be uncomfortable for me personally
09:25 Tornspirit: i'll put that in and you can try again
09:25 Quick Draw: and not overall
09:25 Quick Draw: but meh, that's my feedback anyway xD
09:25 Quick Draw: Ok Sure I'll test it
09:26 Tornspirit: mapping ez/nm/hard is worse than insane by far
09:26 Tornspirit: lol
09:27 Tornspirit: undermapping how do you work >.<
09:27 Quick Draw: omg
09:27 Quick Draw: it's so fucking hard
09:27 Quick Draw: you'll notice
09:27 Quick Draw: my maps are missing EZ NM and HD diffs now
09:27 Quick Draw: xD
09:27 Quick Draw: I can't be bothered even trrying anymore haha
09:27 Tornspirit: lol
09:27 Tornspirit: i should find
09:28 Tornspirit: some random person in one of my classes
09:28 Tornspirit: and just be like
09:28 Tornspirit: kkk play this game
09:28 Tornspirit: -try my ez
09:28 Tornspirit: if they fail then it's too hard
09:28 Tornspirit: try again
09:28 Tornspirit: \ o /
09:29 Quick Draw: hahahaha
09:30 Quick Draw: The problem for me is
09:30 Quick Draw: I never played EZ
09:30 Quick Draw: or NM difficulty
09:30 Quick Draw: When I started Stepmania I just got packs from my friend
09:30 Tornspirit: i played those difficulties when i started playing, but i played terrible ez/nm
09:30 Quick Draw: and they were all HARD / CHALLENGE difficulty, so I have no idea
09:30 Quick Draw: how I am meant to map them
09:30 Tornspirit: oh ye
09:30 Tornspirit: when i started stepmania
09:30 Quick Draw: since I have no experience playing them
09:30 Tornspirit: i started on like 13 foot + stuff
09:30 Tornspirit: lol
09:30 Tornspirit: everything else is like
09:31 Tornspirit: so slow
09:31 Tornspirit: ;-;
09:31 Quick Draw: hahaha
09:31 Quick Draw: Talking about foot
09:31 Quick Draw: Linked my (piano) keyboard's foot pedal
09:31 Tornspirit: that was
09:31 Tornspirit: ages agooo
09:31 Quick Draw: to the 8K column
09:31 Quick Draw: Thought I was a genius, until I still sucked
09:31 Quick Draw: hahaha
09:32 Tornspirit: hm
09:32 Tornspirit: you compress mp3 in audacity through project rate right
09:32 Tornspirit: or is there a more direct option
09:32 Quick Draw: Uhh
09:33 Quick Draw: When you export using the whatsamecallit.dll
09:33 Quick Draw: There should be a kbps option I think
09:33 Tornspirit: oh is there an option via export
09:33 Tornspirit: ok
09:33 Quick Draw: I think so
09:33 Quick Draw: if I remember correctly
09:33 Quick Draw: which I probably don't
09:34 Quick Draw: wait loks like there isn't
09:34 Quick Draw: hmm.
09:34 Quick Draw: Sorry I can't remember how to do it xD
09:35 Tornspirit: ummmmmm
09:37 Tornspirit: i give up i'll use something else lol
09:37 Quick Draw: hahaha
09:38 Tornspirit: standard osu mp3 is
09:38 Tornspirit: 128 kbps right
09:41 Quick Draw: ya
09:41 Quick Draw: wait
09:42 Quick Draw: maybe 192
09:42 Quick Draw: actually
09:44 Tornspirit: alright should be updated now
09:44 *Tornspirit is editing [http://osu.ppy.sh/b/392010 Varien - The Scarlet Dawn [Insane]]
09:45 Tornspirit: will probably have to redl the mp3
09:46 Quick Draw: Updatin'
09:46 Quick Draw: testin'
09:47 Quick Draw: That's fixed
09:47 Quick Draw: it's perfect now
09:47 Quick Draw: nice man
09:48 Tornspirit: k cool
09:49 Quick Draw: waaay better
09:49 Tornspirit: 1.6 down from 1.75
09:49 Tornspirit: doesn't feel like it should make that much of a difference but it does lol
09:50 Quick Draw: Wow it made a huge difference
09:50 Quick Draw: so much more readable now
09:50 Quick Draw: I'd consider doing something similar
09:50 Tornspirit: mm
09:50 Quick Draw: with the two long notes that lead into the intense part at the start
09:51 Quick Draw: Aside from that this map is perfect man
09:51 Tornspirit: wait, which two long notes?
09:52 Tornspirit: ._.
09:53 Quick Draw: Uhh
09:53 Quick Draw: Whoops they're not long notes
09:53 Quick Draw: 00:57:484 (57484|1,57484|3,57484|0,57913|1,57913|2,57913|4) -
09:53 Quick Draw: Those 2
09:54 Tornspirit: ah
09:54 Tornspirit: hm i'll try some other speeds
09:54 Tornspirit: see if they work better
09:54 Quick Draw: Sweet
09:55 Tornspirit: alright i think
09:55 Tornspirit: 1.75 is much better
09:56 Tornspirit: post the savelog of this chat into a spoiler into my map thread and i'll giff kudosu
09:56 Quick Draw: haha sure thing man
09:56 Quick Draw: <3
09:56 Quick Draw: How does I get savelog O_o
09:57 Tornspirit: thanks for looking over the map, time to work on the ez/nm/hd difficulties orz
