@Mittenz: definitely. One major difference is actually a general thing I noticed when playing with cart rather than flash cart: flash cart eats up my battery TOO FAST; I can play my DS3 cart almost an entire day before the battery indicator becomes red.

Also, seeing as how fast your fingers are, this just might be your chance to FC Hataraku by using Taiko's mercy glitch, lol. Also you have to FC Metal Hawk there since I wanna see how you'll do it @_@ I can't (at the moment), that's for sure, and my touch screen's already taken a beating because of Hataraku... which I at least don't have to keep playing now.

@Azure: ♥♥♥ You gonna try full body? Or just the head?

LOL the end omg XD



hmm @.@

I wonder why this isn't on youtube XD

Don't worry, that's the Oni map out of the way, now you only need to focus on the rest :3

Not really since I wanna TaikOsu.

Ah well, samiljul's map is going to the list while we wait for yours then.

Some map fixes from me.

Artist for Total Eclipse 2035 is changed to Kaori Aihara. http://www.sendspace.com/file/290gms

Timing for SORA-II Gliese 581 is changed to 144.00 BPM http://www.sendspace.com/file/65oen8

Zeihen ~transformation~ now has Inner Oni difficulty http://www.sendspace.com/file/x76rbc

New map: Daidara 8551 http://www.sendspace.com/file/av5uin (need a BG)

I'm clearing my backlog. I'm halfway mapping Monster Hunter Medley, all that's left are Bolero, T3 Booei Tai (if samiljul doesn't map it first lololol) Katamari On the Rocks (ac13 version) and Kimagure Romantic.

Oh hey, one more thing. I've looked around the Net and noticed that there aren't any good Taiko blogs/fansites in English. Would it be good if we made one? Something for non-Japanese-speaking fans to understand.

****, looks like they shaved off a lot of popular songs They broke the tradition of keeping a Garyoutensei song for two arcades in a row too.

Yuugao no Kimi, Many wow bang!, Family Dondon, Kaze no Fantasy, Carnivorous Carnival and the two Sora songs will be missed. (and good riddance to Negaigoto Puzzle lololol)

That doesn't make it any easier to record I'll just put the entire pile in on my next update. I can't do tonight, was out with friends.

Isn't 'Papa Mama Mac'?

PlanetBoom - SuperSonic (Mr.Funky Remix)

Small preview of what I intend to do



Not sure if I'm allowed to do something like this though (no hit numbers)

No hit numbers? That's.......uh, I don't know.

New maps:

Monster Hunter Medley http://www.sendspace.com/file/0xuxio
Tatakae! T3 Booei Tai~GDI mix~ http://www.sendspace.com/file/49n2q6

P.S. Um, can anyone find me the pictures for Kantan, Futsuu, Musukashii and Oni (the flower, bamboo, tree and devil)? I need them.

(#Fast Food Song by Fast Food Rockers)
McDonalds, McDonalds,
Kentucky fried chicken and a pizza hut!

...Come to think of it I should map that song for taiko. It was a one hit wonder in the UK!

Anyway:


Currently nomming my way through story mode... this uniform is making me hungry. ;w;

Anyone guess what the two silver crowns are for?

I MIGHT be able to do Hataraku but my BRAND NEW DSi XL SCREEN is too precious to go the way of my poor little DS Lite.
Zekira himself mentioned grinding Hataraku buggers up the screen.

No not really; my touch screen is already messed up before I played DS3. Actually I only experience touch screen suckiness on the slow songs (when I press only lightly on the screen), but when I do intense songs (thus press it with qutie some amount of force), response is just great.

Hataraku isn't much mashing when you get the beat, anyway... except for the last part where the number of 1/8s becomes insanely high.

I swear it's all a secret plot between 765 and Nintendo.They intend to have us break our DS
playing Hataraku,and end up having to buy new NDS consoles.(thus racking up the sales
of NDS consoles)

Praise be to the 4.5 inch screen, da-don:

@crystal: lol, but my DS is still alive though... actually after playing Hataraku the screen feels more repsonsive now, hahaha

@mint tears: lol:


EDIT: Took a short Hataraku vid. Not an FC, but still a good run (817 combo, missing on the part I almost always miss on)

http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm11578329

Wait... 3 silver crowns?

I know Metal Hawk is one of those (and Hataraku?) but what are the other(s)?

I'm too lazy to FC 2 of those classical songs. I just don't find them fun. If you can see from above Hataraku has a gold crown :/

I happen to be an amateur graphic designer.

What do you need?

I'm making a Taiko fansite using Blogger. I have the details sorted out, and if any of you want to be contributors (after I finish preparing everything), I would be thankful.

But for now Rokodo, I need you to help me make a header image and a background for it. Here's the link to the blog (it's cheap, I made it just half an hour ago) http://taikotime.blogspot.com/

Any style is fine, just make it all Taiko-y and stuff and I'll be happy Header should be 980 px x 200 px, and the background should look seamless when tiled. Can you do it~?

I'll just leave this here.

Short, but dangerous!

Yep yep, give me a bit of time on it.
I'm going to need access to your blog (ie credentials and password) in order to put the graphics into place though.


EDIT:
Think I've done enough 'round these parts.

ENGLISH.

I'll PM you the username and password when you're done. Anyone wanna have a go at helping me run the blog/fansite?

Sure. I've done a prototype for the banner image, but I really need access to the templates and blog settings for the rest of the design work.

EDIT: 202 - 002 atm. シンフォニックメドレー第1番 is trolling me with its very dynamic BPM OTL

This taiko thread is really huge.

I propose we start 2 different new threads. One for the maps themselves as well as other useful game information such as combination unlock codes and another for discussion*.

OR we could seek a different solution to displaying the map links in such a way as users can be set and are permitted to edit the authentic map section as well as their own for the purpose of updating and adding links easily. The only problem is finding something reliable and free. I could pay for hosting and set something up with a CMS but to be honest it would be better to just rely on a large company that offers a free service.
If we could do something like that I would be fine with converting all the BBCode links to another format.

Here is the basic plan of my idea with > representing a subdirectory.

User - Rokodo has access to Taiko Maps > Authentic > ALL + Taiko Maps > Custom > Rokodo
User - Zekira has access to Taiko Maps > Authentic > ALL + Taiko Maps > Custom > Zekira
...and so on and so on. Each main section would be displayed as one article on a page or possibly via a directory tree seeing as we would be moving to our own hosting solution anyway.

Maybe something like this:
----------------------
NAVIGATION___|
---------------------
Authentic maps_|___________________TITLE (e.g. Authentic Maps - Anime)
-Anime________|
-J POP________|___________________ARTICLE CONTENT (i.e. map links)
-Namco Original_|
...etc.________|
---------------------
Custom maps___|
-aquabluu_____|
-arien666____|
-Rokodo_______|
-Zekira________|
---------------------
[Imagine the Navigation menu as aligned to the left and the article content area as a box floating to the right of it.]

Of course we would need a web admin to designate and administrate user accounts and I would actually be happy to set up a site that allows us to do this if everything is left to me in terms of setting it up. We obviously don't want public sign up available for security reasons in terms of someone might want to wreck the website. All sign ups would have to go through me or whoever else wants to help with the administration.

EDIT: peppy said we can use the osu! wiki if we want. Security may be a slightly bigger issue but poor page edits can be rolled back.
http://osu.ppy.sh/wiki/

That sounds like a good idea,especially when this thread seems to be a general topic for all things
Taiko instead of a thread for map-making.
If we're making a separate site for Taiko maps,count me in.(I really should start making more custom taikomaps..)

Oh,and I'm around if ya need me to draw taiko-styled stuff.^ ^

Security is actually my main concern regarding the handling of a database for the maps. If you can pull this off, then I have no objections.

Can you use the fonts we use for the title bars in our beatmaps? It'll look a whole lot better. And is having Don-chan in the banner considered copyright infringement? I was thinking of having him.

Also, Taiko Time is also the name of the new Namco Original in Taiko 14 :3 I'll PM you with the details.

Also, about your proposal for the putting the maps in a separate site, I'm all for it. But let me be admin, or at least part admin

@crystalsuicune: I actually need blog authors, aside from the designing work. Once I figure out some sort of system, I'll start to ask people to contribute.

Just whipped this up a moment ago...here's two versions of it,
one with Tekton Pro as the font,and the other with the font Taiko uses.

They sure look similar...

BTW,I kept the PSD file,so it's possible for me to replace Don-chan here
with another drum character (custom drums?) just in case we're not
allowed to use Don-chan.

That's seems cool
Sometimes I want to update my maps, but it's kinda tricky now, but if we use wiki that would be much better.

I mapped that one once based on Taiko map wiki... Symphonic Medley No. 1 <-- this one.

This. Is nice.

BTW, here's the sample page I created. For starters, I want the entire songs database to be in this blog, and I finished the one for DS3. halp.

http://taikotime.blogspot.com/p/games.html

The link on DS3 is clickable, which will take you to its song list and a brief description. It still needs fine tuning (I haven't put in any in-game screenshots, or named the unlockable songs or anything like that). Any ideas?

EDIT: The page links, like 'Home', 'Introduction' etc also need custom buttons of their own too. Those page names are temporary atm, so don't worry about that too much yet.

EDIT2: Okay, now I really want this to go along as quickly as possible...I need to know what we can and can't include in the fansite. Currently the list of things I planned for Taiko Time (and really need everyone's help with) are these:

-Song lists (arranged by genre/game)
-Lyrics (if available)
-Song unlock codes for both arcade and console
-Profile of all characters in the series (and this means finding official art)
-News (new songs, new games, etc. just like any other fansite)
-Simple guides for all console games

Other minor things include:

-Song 'series' (like all the 2000 songs, in one blog post, and include information for each one)
-List of Oni 10 star, 9 star, 8 star songs
-Introduction and tutorial to the game (this means finding suitable screenshots for 'don' 'kat' 'drumroll' 'balloon note' and a few others)
-List of songs with 765 combo, 999 combo

and so on and so forth...

Symphonic is blargh to me too...it's easy at first,then it's BPM-trollin' later on.Some suggest
speeding the thing up via mods,but IDK.

About them songs itself,the chinese wikipedia entry for Taiko (and maaaybe the Taiko wiki )
could be useful.Too bad the english wikipedia entry for it ain't very useful..

Information gathering is no problem at all, but actually typing it all out is EXTREMELY TIRING. I need people to help me with it. Anyone who wants to help, I can give yo the login and password for Taiko Time (or if you have a Blogger account of your own, I'll send you a message so you can be an official contributor)

Maybe we can get a sample first?At least we know how much detail we should go into.
While stuff like name,artists,BPM and note count for Oni are a must,I'm not too sure about
the rest.

Urgh,too bad I'll be very busy soon,and I'll barely find time to show up once September rolls in.*grumble*

http://taikotime.blogspot.com/p/games.html

'Ere. This is what I've done so far. Click the link for Taiko DS3 at the bottom to see more. I don't really think the BPM and artist are that important (unless maybe we could add them for J-Pop and Anime songs). I didn't put in the note count either, since none of the songs have an individual profile yet. I could do that, if you want.

Sorry if I'm being a bother

-Profile of all characters in the series (and this means finding official art)

Unless we can use screenshots from the games, I think it's going to be difficult to find official art of every character...

I can help, but I think it would be better if like we're assigned to which things we're supposed to be accomplishing. E.G. I'd probably have 0 knowledge on filling in the arcade lists. Also it's to save time just in case someone already made a page for this certain article, only to find out it's actually completed already.

I have a Blogspot account, it's on the followers list...

I can probably come up with some of the characters, but it'll involve a lot of Photoshop work. A lot.

About assigning work, I'll do that once I've gathered a few of us willing to write for the blog. I have the DS3 and DS2 song lists covered.(and if you need the arcade song lists I can always link you to the page on the Taiko wiki) Right now though, what is urgently needed is the introduction and how to play Taiko. Can you do that?

As for the songlists, what I've done is just a sample. If you guys have any suggestions on how to improve the lists, I'm all ears.

Right now though, what is urgently needed is the introduction and how to play Taiko.

Just the basics all in one page? I'm not sure how I can explain it well so that players looking to try will understand, lol.

Well that's for the how-to-play part. For the introduction, I don't know how to describe it well... lol.

I really don't think having Don-chan in the banner is a good idea for copyright reasons... even if it is hand drawn.

Not like the blog is likely to get so popular where that would become an issue but still.

In that case,then we need to somehow come up with a drum character....*ponders*
As for how-to-play sections,pictures always help.Maybe we can take some
screenshots of the tutorial in AC/CS Taiko.

@crystalsuicune: Can you link me a download for the taiko font?


I've applied this image as the banner according to the width of the template background area, to which custom artwork can be applied over the note track:




The blog currently looks like this:

@Rokodo: I put the Taiko font on the front page, it's the 'i-love-epson' link. And typo on the word 'blogspost'. It's 'blogspot' Also, personally I think fanart works just fine. I've seen many bigger sites use fanarts on their banners and they don't get lawsuits or anything.

@crystalsuicune: Screenshots of AC is pretty out of my league. Maybe we can use the blank bar like Rokodo used and Photoshop in some notes/drumrolls, then have a picture of a drum explaining where to hit.

@Zekira: Can you do the song lists for Taiko Wii1/2 first? It'd be a big help. Try to follow the format as the example I gave (DS3)

@aqua Um,there's a tutorial in the DS versions..perhaps we can use -those-.

On an unrelated note,I just taikomapped something~
It's Sayonara Heaven,a nice song by Nekomata MASTER.

Being a song with some tribal feel to it,I figured that this song
would go well with taiko.*shrug*
Lots of mixed streams (stuff like dkd and ddkkd) here because
the overall melody is like that...

Download: nekomata MASTER - Sayonara Heaven.osz

Fix'd



@aquabluu: Well I made the taiko track myself, it may be possible for me to replicate the arcade backgrounds if needed.

Errr wait

What markup language does blogspot use anyway

I haven't actually made complex entries so I wouldn't know...

I'm assuming I can just send you a text file? Or are you permitting me to edit the entry directly (so that I can also experiment, lol)

About tutorial: actually it would be a really great idea if someone knew how to make Flash here. I'm not sure if blogspot supports it, but an interactive applet is definitely the best way to put a tut up. (don't look at me, I don't know anything about making the applets work lol) Just a suggestion.

EDIT: Errr wtf lol there's a bug with the sign in system with blogger. tl;dr, my account is permanently following Taiko Time and is currently unremovable. And I can also re-follow Taiko Time with my account AGAIN. WTF? So if I Follow again, there would be 3 followers, with 2 of them being on the same account. What.

Why is there no way to delete an account in blogspot anyway; I want to renew stuff :/

Yes, I'm permitting you to edit entries directly, of course. Blogspot uses HTML, by the way.

A tutorial with Flash? That sounds like pure win. But it's gonna be time consuming though- I recommend we put up a simple tutorial first and work on this later. The basic structure of the site still isn't complete yet. Zekira I'm gonna need you to help me complete the Wii1/2 song lists. Give me your email address and I'll send you the invite to be a contributor.

@Rokodo: That would be nice, so thanks.

@crystal: I'll update the list instantly, since it's just one map.

@Zekira (Edit): I dunno, I haven't worked out why Blogger has so many bugs sometimes :/ I thought Google Friend Connect and Blogger accounts are separate.

I have a feeling this is exactly it. I follow'd Taiko Time with my Blogger before I remember linking it to my Google account... wait this is odd, I'm pretty sure I signed in my Yahoo!, but now even Yahoo! forces me to sign to Google to sign to Blogger. What. Basically saying that whatever setting of my account that first followed this, I can't access it anymore. Lol.

E-mail address (just invert it): ɥd˙ɯoɔ˙ooɥɐʎ@puıʍ‾ǝɥʇ‾ɟo‾ɐouolʞ

I'm in the process of setting up a taikosu! subsite of my domain astoni.sh

Address will be http://taikosu.astoni.sh if all goes according to plan.

Need to find a suitable CMS with user account permissions that actually work unlike the Contao/TypoLight CMS I am used to.

My idea is to set up for each user their own usergroup that has permissions to edit:
a) Genuine TnT map links page
b) User map links page
c) POSSIBLY a profile page for the user

Taking aquabluu as an example:

Usergroup = aquabluu
Permissions of usergroup = <edit> authentic maps, custom maps - aquabluu, user profiles - aquabluu

Rokodo I'm astonished. Lol. If this pulls through updating the list would be so much easier

@Zekira: Invite sent.

@crystalsuicune. Username and password's in your PM box.

Came back from 3 days break :3
Umm...



I wanna know about here's recent news ;_;
Maybe, Taiko-Time???



edit. Wait a minute...
Err...
Shimoda Asami - Dororon Girl
Didn't I see ghost URL?
Or...

OMGOMGOMG<<< Good luck :3

edit2.
Okay. I should rank 'Dororon Girl' even that's not my song :3
Keep going, Zeki-katsu XD

edit3.
Wow!!!

Gee I need to get back on working on Kimi no Akari soon arken, I'll tell you more about Taiko Time blog later~

Also in the works...



Hosting will be entirely from my shared server. Unlimited space and bandwidth. Hosting plan was taken for 6 years, which should be plenty.

But rehosting so many files... o_O are you sure?

We don't have to rehost everything right away, but I will be glad for volunteers to reupload maps due to my bandwidth limits!!!

Once the taikosu site is setup we can link to existing links for now and once they are found to be broken (or if someone volunteers) we can reupload to my hosting.

Smooth transition~

@aquabluu: FINALLY managed to find the area in the HTML coding where the article background info is kept. Now it is a partly transparent white as in the other areas:



EDIT:

BEATMAP HOSTING SITE UP AND READY FOR USE.


http://kodoup.astoni.sh/

To test it here is a fixed version of still a duckling (there were 2 overlapping notes that needed deleting so you can actually fc it now).
http://kodoup.astoni.sh/index.php/files ... ckling.osz

As you can see direct linking is allowed. Allowed filetypes are rar, zip, osz, ogg and mp3 - so you can use this to share TnT mp3s too.

This website is to be used in conjunction with http://taikosu.astoni.sh

Blog: Do you mind if I switched to a simpler template while keeping everything we made so far? Having the front part scroll and the background remaining static is taxing on an old computer's RAM. If the background scrolled together with the blog it would be nice.

Taiko map upload site: Ooh :3 Looks like I'll have to repackage everything I have. Goodbye Sendspace, it's been nice knowing ya Eh? What's the login box for?

@Zekira: I'm setting up the Contact page(on the blog). Are you okay with your email address being there? I can take it down if you want.

You can make an account if you want to, though it is not necessary. We'll start the transition by hosting files on kodoup then we can link to them on our new site when it's done. Also, file hosting is actually against the TOS of my host so don't up/download too much so we can keep a low profile.

I'm also risking this as an osu! beatmap mirror so don't put all your eggs into my basket just yet. We ought to keep the mediafire/sendspace links to hand as backups.

Go for setting up a new template, I just put the foundations there for you. I personally was not a fan of that template myself anyway.

Alright then, I'll see what I can do. The list on the front page stays then, for now. You're gonna have to put the background in again after I change the template though. EDIT: changed. BG is reset, as I thought

EDIT2: Okay now I'm in a bind. Those small difficulty symbols in the song list aren't transparent when viewed with a simple template, but are transparent when the current one is used. Lol. Stupid Blogger default template designer. *looks for custom template* Rokodo, while I look for a good new one, Magic of trial and error worked Can you put the background back in there again?

lol@taiko ancient history

...
Why did I change the nick...?

Anyway,
About Taiko-time thing, I'll consider checking later...
And...



About 'Dororon Girl',
aren't you going to make [Kantan] ???

Just a little nitpick (of sorts)..
I think Go Go Kicchin should be Go Go Kitchen.Aside from that,all's good.

And here's some info on Taiko AC1:
http://zh-hk.taiko.wikia.com/wiki/%E5%A4%AA%E9%BC%931
With the song list there,it shows Name->Catagory->Kantan level->Futsuu level->Muzukashii level.

Th-That's......THANK YOU SO MUCH XD

Wow. The Chinese Taiko wiki is way more comprehensive than the Japanese one. Ironic

Umm...?
I wonder how's going 'Taiko-Time' making :3
Good luck for aqua and Rokodo.
Anyway...


Sorry for late making Taiko maps ;_;

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF I was thinking of taikomapping smoooch...
nvm,perhaps I'll go map SigSig instea-Oh wait,I've got homework to do.Blargh.

@aqua Yeah,it's a nice wiki~especially when I can read what it says lol.
BTW,is there an english wiki for Taiko,aside from its article in Wikipedia and TVtropes?

No, and there's not a single competent blog or fansite anywhere. That's why I wanted to make one. You can help me out too There's too many articles for me to sort through by myself.

I'm a bit busy atm and hell week is slowly approaching, so I might be doing stuff a bit slower than usual :<

@ark-er,arien-don: It's OK,Lepi can go map smoooch if he wants to :3
I'll map something else,like...maybe "V"?I can't spell revival without it..

I am so not changing my username

I had to apply a background first with the template designer to get the code structure (I'm not a pro designer remember). As such the blue of the font is slightly darker across the whole page, I tried to change it but the code does not seem to exist. As long as you are ok with it, I can leave it as it is?

I've redesigned the background so it doesn't look as cramped. Looks better now.

The background scrolls with the page now though.

I tried to use Rokodo's new hosting and seems works well. I uploaded fixed ver. of Senpuu no Mai AC ver., (fixed offset, SV and added Muzukashii) so please replace to this.

http://kodoup.astoni.sh/index.php/files ... c-ver..osz

Wait wtf

wikihouse said

天妖ノ舞→CS/AC

...so is a different Tenyou no Mai confirmed for AC14 already? o_O

Rage.

@Zekira:

NANJAKORYA.

I'm stuck on the third floor of the taiko tower after boss 2 (your avatar).

HOW THE FUCK DO I ESCAPE!!!!!??????!!!!!!!!!!!

I keep leveling up but nothing is happening. Do I have to wear a specific costume or something?
