I have no idea what I did wrong...

http://puu.sh/nqi3m/cfeb2037a7.jpg

I have windows 10 x64 and NET 4.0.

Also tried running as administrator. Also tried running it with compatibility with windows 7.

Its weird, I remember I used it right after you posted it and it worked fine for me. (Except by that time I was using windows 7)

EDIT: TicClick helped me resolve the issue. The cause was the AVG anti virus, I added it to the exceptions and now its functioning!

Best compliment a map could ever get: I usually don't like that song, but now I love the song because of the map!

Hiiii, I'm here again. ;w;

Sorry for disturbing but I found another bug.

Unused files

Problem Details: 1.5.2 doesn't show when there are unused elements in the folder as 1.3.2 does.
Mapset: t/410656
Screenshot http://puu.sh/nxx3y/fb7656fd3a.png

Storyboard Conflicts

Problem Details: 1.5.2 presents conflicts at analyzing when a mapset has or no storyboard.

There is no warning for unused files yet because of missing skin sets check :O but those 2 things are main priority atm.
Storyboard not really in conflict because first is shown for .osb file and second is difficulty specific (in .osu) tho it's a good catch, I'll rename 2nd to something like "storyboard in .osu",and I should make readme with detailed explanation on things

Thanks for your great help, I really appreciate.

Remade strains calculations, thanks to opsu! project.
Still testing but they should be almost accurate already. There is also scale values shown on y-axis to give you understanding how for example easy difficulty scales to insane.

SPOILER

Also there is almost accurate star rating calculations (almost - because used algorithms in not super up-to-date but that should fine as it is)

Please, can you be more specific on details such as OS version, .net version you use, any error messages?

Also make sure that you downloaded right and there 5 files to let everything work properly

Thanks.

'windows smartscreen has blocked an unrecognized application'

rip

nvm i got it. man this thing is amazing, is there a special window for HS checking or does it just tell u if there is a hitsound with delay?

suggestions:
check the image size of the background and sb elements (1366 by 768 for bg, etc)
display a warning for low hitsound volumes (below 20% or something) it might not be unrankable but it is definitely useful to know where those timing points are on the map so we can go check it ourselves without having to find it
also not sure if this is possible, but check the video dimensions since i believe the max is 720p for osu (and video offset if that isnt in there already)
inconsistent kiai/endpoints (ending time of difficulty that is)
spinner recovery time guideline thing (easy 4 beats normal 2 beats hard 1 beat, so on and so forth) (uh i think u can kinda scan the difficulty name and etc, or star rating. dunno how u can do this, maybe kinda hard to implement)

@Kibbleru
It will be on warnings

SPOILER

uh, I guess I screwed with header text, must be "Wave hitsounds with possible delay > 5ms:" instead of "Hitsounds must have an acceptable range of delay under 5ms, unless there's a special purpose."

There are already checks for bg and sb elements size, video and stuff

SPOILER

Suggestions about hs volume level and spinner is nice, general names like "normal" "hard" etc wont be a problem to detect. This is already used in similar way to set maximum snapping check values for different difficulty levels, tho I'll remade them from names detect to star rating maybe. Also consistency for difficulty start\end time planned.

Thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate. :3

omg double post because why not?

Here's a link of the elements which their "optimal" size while skinning the nature of the hitcircle, sliders, spinners.. etc click

It's missing that while skinning the hitcircle, Sliderborder must be skinned too. But as long as it's a value of the .osu there's no need to included as a png image. Just as well as it's supported by the RC here

SPOILER

The same will go to slider, mapper should modify the SliderTrackOverride if decided to skin the slider.

Hope this help. ;w;

Added spinner things, you can read in op. No skin sets check since there is no offical information. The google doc linked is a good start but i don't think that it can be the base for this atm.

So, rolled out release with this... whatever. Hope you guys will find some use with it..

Same problem here with the latest version.
The version I used before (with the old ui) always worked fine
The only solution for me seems to be keeping the downloaded zip file and replacing all files, as soon as it breaks.
After that it works fine for some time but seems to break again after restarting my pc
Windows 7 btw, .Net stuff should be up-to-date

aha :3
well... skin sets for the next

1.5.3
What's new:

Snapshots

Snapshots, a bit enhanced? version of mod tracker from AIBat. Can be used to track beatmaps state or for creating backups. i.e. If you a BN and going to nominate beatmap you can track what changed since the last time you checked and so on.
You can create snapshot of the current beatmap state (osu files, osb file, other files hashes). There is also possibility to create full backup (all files in betmap directory)

SPOILER

After that at any point (as long as the beatmap directory name in osu!\songs not changed) you can select created snapshot to compare with the beatmap current state. There are options to open shapshot directory (may be useful with full backup to restore files) or delete snapshot.

SPOILER

What will be compared? Files changed (this is based on file hash), changes in difficulties.

SPOILER

It works for non osu!std modes? Yes, for now it works for standard, catch, taiko. Mania support will come next.

SPOILER

Storyboard changes? No, not for now. Storyboard changes track will come next along with mania support.

Settings

1. You can set automatically check for updates on startup.
2. You can select another way to display list of available beatmaps. Can be long to initialize if you have a lot of beatmaps.

SPOILER

Search

Algorithm changed a bit. Now it's separate partial search.

When at Easy and Normal there's sliders and circles placed in blue tick, the assistant mark this as "unspanned" when is not
When I use on a map "inputoverlay-key.png", the assistant mark this file as "unused" when is used really for key overlay

right, there is something needs to be clarified, thanks for the feedback

Snapping

1. Select difficulty.

SPOILER

2. You can see snapping check values.

SPOILER

The first bar

SPOILER

is the maximum value to check snapping for 1/1 1/2 1/4 1/8 1/16 snapping beat divisor

SPOILER

The second bar

SPOILER

is the maximum value to check snapping for 1/1 1/3 1/6 1/12 snapping beat divisor.

i.e. with this

SPOILER

settings all notes snapped to 1/4 1/8 1/16 1/6 1/12 will be listed as unsnapped.

You can recheck snapping with different values, just set what you need as maximum and press apply.

SPOILER

Why so complicated? To give you ability to check for a possible misplaced objects for lower difficulties, or get list for example for all 1/12 snapped objects in higher difficulties to check manually while modding if they appropriate. etc

There are default values taken from guidelines, for example for easy they will be 1/2 for x4 and 1/1 for x3 divisors. Thus if object listed as unsnapped you should check values if they work right with difficulty level\bpm and change them if necessary. And after that check if snapping is used correctly in the difficulty.

oh I found the source of it, nothing actually related to your tool
I always extracted the archive into my osu folder and apparently osu likes to delete those dll files, which is why it stopped working after restarting the game.
Works perfectly fine now after I moved it to a different folder

Also: It says "raitings" instead of "ratings" in the general tab :d

Reports an error:

"<hitsound>.wav processing error: Unsupported sourceStream format"

when analysing mapsets with "low bitrate" hitsounds (71kbps in the mapset I just checked, the hitsound was a short kick drum sound which I have used before with no issues) - is this something to be concerned about?

uhm,
this error means MA was unable to read wave from this file properly (may happen ?maybe? on 32-bit IEEE, I'll look in details on this).
Error will result in 100% inability to detect this wave file possible delay, and maybe (not sure, need to check all this types) in some cases this wave file length.

Thanks for reporting, I'll try to get a solution for this soon.

Just checking difficulty progression in spreads without much effort is very valuable in Taiko as it's a lot more continous than in std. You will often keep 80% of the lower diff intact and add stuff in the next diff instead of approaching the map anew with a different mindset.
Now you can evaluate the diffspread in like 1min when before you had to check all diffs individually and go in and out of diffs to compare stuff and I'm sure the competent Taiko modders can make even more use of that feature than I can think of spontaneously.

Nobody really knows when the body dies. After brain death, and then organ failure, and all the electricity's gone, a rotting corpse still feeds the world, mother's diesel for the biological engine of life. Who knows where the internet will go, or for how long, or in what strange aeons it will return? Who can say if ours was even the first?
