2016-09-15 00:55 Hobbes2: o sure
2016-09-15 00:55 CrystilonZ: first thing first
2016-09-15 00:55 CrystilonZ: most importantly
2016-09-15 00:56 CrystilonZ: change your diff name X_X
2016-09-15 00:56 CrystilonZ: i want to eat a cheesecake
2016-09-15 00:56 CrystilonZ: please
2016-09-15 00:56 CrystilonZ: okno

2016-09-15 00:56 Hobbes2: lol
2016-09-15 00:56 Hobbes2: lily might do fancy diff names idk
2016-09-15 00:56 CrystilonZ: ok real mod this time lol
2016-09-15 00:56 Hobbes2: ctrl+a remap
2016-09-15 00:57 CrystilonZ: that thing is so cliched :/
2016-09-15 00:57 Hobbes2: often true :(
2016-09-15 00:57 CrystilonZ: lolXD
2016-09-15 00:57 CrystilonZ: 01:37:194 (1,2,3,4) -
2016-09-15 00:57 CrystilonZ: this somehow feels undermapped
2016-09-15 00:58 CrystilonZ: you went as far as overmapping 00:47:659 (4,5,6,7) - by extending the sliders
2016-09-15 00:58 CrystilonZ: and
2016-09-15 00:58 Hobbes2: you think using 1/4 sliders for the woosh sounds is overmap?
2016-09-15 00:58 Hobbes2: i dont think so :v
2016-09-15 00:58 CrystilonZ: the last kiai isn't very undermapped either
2016-09-15 00:58 CrystilonZ: uhh
2016-09-15 00:59 CrystilonZ: ok overmap is not a good word
2016-09-15 00:59 CrystilonZ: like
2016-09-15 00:59 CrystilonZ: it's
2016-09-15 00:59 CrystilonZ: far more intense than
2016-09-15 00:59 CrystilonZ: 01:37:194 (1,2,3,4) - despite having same sounds and ofc intensity
2016-09-15 01:00 CrystilonZ: you don't need to map all the sounds tho
2016-09-15 01:00 CrystilonZ: just add some
2016-09-15 01:00 Hobbes2: oh good point
2016-09-15 01:00 CrystilonZ: so that it doesn't feel empty
2016-09-15 01:00 Hobbes2: ill fix that then
2016-09-15 01:02 CrystilonZ: 00:42:775 (1,2,3,4,5) - consider reducing the density here
2016-09-15 01:02 CrystilonZ: it is not overmapped
2016-09-15 01:02 CrystilonZ: but it being right beside 00:42:077 (1,2,3,4) - on the timeline kinda make
2016-09-15 01:02 CrystilonZ: the wooshy sounds you tried to emphasize lose their importance
2016-09-15 01:03 CrystilonZ: somehow
2016-09-15 01:03 Hobbes2: good point, fixed
2016-09-15 01:03 Hobbes2: or well, fixing
2016-09-15 01:04 CrystilonZ: this is just me being curious owo
2016-09-15 01:04 CrystilonZ: 00:58:821 (1,2,3,4,1) - what are these extended sliders following?
2016-09-15 01:05 Hobbes2: woosh
2016-09-15 01:05 Hobbes2: sounds
2016-09-15 01:06 CrystilonZ: I don't
2016-09-15 01:06 CrystilonZ: hear any woosh sounds OwO
2016-09-15 01:07 CrystilonZ: can you listen to them properly again?
2016-09-15 01:07 Hobbes2: I hear em :o
2016-09-15 01:07 Hobbes2: they're definitely there
2016-09-15 01:07 CrystilonZ: ok i hear them now
2016-09-15 01:07 CrystilonZ: rip my ears
2016-09-15 01:08 CrystilonZ: 01:13:124 (7,8,9,10,1,2) - this shift of attention is kinda weird actually
2016-09-15 01:08 CrystilonZ: but it follows the vocals properly
2016-09-15 01:08 CrystilonZ: i just want you to reconsider
2016-09-15 01:09 Hobbes2: what exactly about it tho
2016-09-15 01:09 CrystilonZ: it's kinda like
2016-09-15 01:09 Hobbes2: like i shift to map the electronic sounds there
2016-09-15 01:09 CrystilonZ: uh no
2016-09-15 01:09 CrystilonZ: i mean
2016-09-15 01:09 CrystilonZ: the slider that is following the vocall
2016-09-15 01:09 CrystilonZ: rip timestamp & highlight
2016-09-15 01:09 Hobbes2: o rip
2016-09-15 01:09 CrystilonZ: 01:18:705 (8,9,10,11,1) - something like this might be better to play
2016-09-15 01:10 CrystilonZ: but you need to leave the vocal there
2016-09-15 01:10 Hobbes2: oooh
2016-09-15 01:10 Hobbes2: goo dpiont
2016-09-15 01:10 Hobbes2: ill try to come up with something
2016-09-15 01:10 CrystilonZ: or maybe
2016-09-15 01:10 CrystilonZ: use a red slider anchor
2016-09-15 01:11 CrystilonZ: to represent the vocal maybe OwO
2016-09-15 01:11 CrystilonZ: just put a sharp turn
2016-09-15 01:11 CrystilonZ: on that vocal start
2016-09-15 01:12 Hobbes2: i have an idea ill try out
2016-09-15 01:12 Hobbes2: probably terrible ill screenshot
2016-09-15 01:12 CrystilonZ: I'm horrible at making slider arts lol
2016-09-15 01:13 Hobbes2: https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/6093579 this rhythm catches the vocal while still focusing on the electronic sounds properly
2016-09-15 01:13 Hobbes2: so its not a weird shift
2016-09-15 01:13 Hobbes2: i think
2016-09-15 01:13 CrystilonZ: oh that's nice OwO
2016-09-15 01:13 CrystilonZ: okay moving on
2016-09-15 01:14 CrystilonZ: 01:21:670 (4) - consider extending this circle into a 1/8 slider
2016-09-15 01:14 CrystilonZ: unlike 01:21:147 (1,2,3) - there's a sound at 01:21:758 -
2016-09-15 01:14 Hobbes2: good point done
2016-09-15 01:15 CrystilonZ: 01:30:217 (1) - not my opinion but
2016-09-15 01:15 CrystilonZ: it touches
2016-09-15 01:15 CrystilonZ: the accuracy bar below
2016-09-15 01:15 CrystilonZ: and people consider this bad :/
2016-09-15 01:15 Hobbes2: o
2016-09-15 01:16 Hobbes2: yea ill move
2016-09-15 01:16 CrystilonZ: same with stacked notes afterwards lol
2016-09-15 01:16 CrystilonZ: also
2016-09-15 01:16 CrystilonZ: some BNs
2016-09-15 01:16 CrystilonZ: will scream "CONSISTENCY" in their mods
2016-09-15 01:17 CrystilonZ: i'm fine with this variations
2016-09-15 01:17 CrystilonZ: but some might find this otherwise
2016-09-15 01:17 CrystilonZ: just saying
2016-09-15 01:18 Hobbes2: yeah im not a fan of nazi consistency
2016-09-15 01:18 Hobbes2: just feels too restrictive
2016-09-15 01:18 Hobbes2: i do try to be consistent at a minimal level tho
2016-09-15 01:19 CrystilonZ: I'm not too :v
2016-09-15 01:19 Hobbes2: so i wont just throw out random rhythm
2016-09-15 01:19 CrystilonZ: but it needs to be said
2016-09-15 01:19 Hobbes2: but i wont be like "exact sound exact same pattern pls!!'
2016-09-15 01:19 CrystilonZ: just leave it there lol
2016-09-15 01:19 Hobbes2: yeah
2016-09-15 01:19 Hobbes2: ill be able to defend myself
2016-09-15 01:19 CrystilonZ: probably
2016-09-15 01:20 CrystilonZ: anyway moving on!
2016-09-15 01:20 Hobbes2: oki
2016-09-15 01:20 CrystilonZ: 02:25:333 (1,2,3,1,2,3,4,5,6) - I find this weird somehow
2016-09-15 01:21 CrystilonZ: The whoosh sounds are stronger, yet you leave it as 1/4
2016-09-15 01:21 CrystilonZ: but the... hi-hat?
2016-09-15 01:21 CrystilonZ: whatever
2016-09-15 01:21 CrystilonZ: is weaker and there's a hell 5 notes stream there
2016-09-15 01:22 CrystilonZ: the whooshy sounds feel a bit under-represented right now
2016-09-15 01:22 CrystilonZ: that is a word right? lol
2016-09-15 01:22 Hobbes2: yeah good point lol
2016-09-15 01:22 Hobbes2: ill remap that part
2016-09-15 01:23 Hobbes2: yea
2016-09-15 01:23 Hobbes2: I see what you mean
2016-09-15 01:23 CrystilonZ: 02:48:182 (4) - extend this thing lol
2016-09-15 01:23 CrystilonZ: same reason as
2016-09-15 01:23 CrystilonZ: uh something before
2016-09-15 01:23 Hobbes2: done
2016-09-15 01:23 CrystilonZ: let me find it one sec
2016-09-15 01:23 Hobbes2: ye dw
2016-09-15 01:23 Hobbes2: i got it
2016-09-15 01:23 CrystilonZ: 01:21:670 (4) -
2016-09-15 01:23 CrystilonZ: thart
2016-09-15 01:23 CrystilonZ: oki
2016-09-15 01:24 CrystilonZ: 00:48:182 (7) - did i mention this one?
2016-09-15 01:25 Hobbes2: fixed
2016-09-15 01:25 CrystilonZ: 03:03:705 (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) -
2016-09-15 01:25 CrystilonZ: since you're also mapping the vocals
2016-09-15 01:26 Hobbes2: hm
2016-09-15 01:26 CrystilonZ: http://puu.sh/rbdhh/866078c9dc.jpg
2016-09-15 01:26 CrystilonZ: this rhythm
2016-09-15 01:26 Hobbes2: those are like the strongest 1/8 drums in the song
2016-09-15 01:26 CrystilonZ: might be better
2016-09-15 01:26 CrystilonZ: but like
2016-09-15 01:26 Hobbes2: so I think they deserve full circles
2016-09-15 01:26 CrystilonZ: 03:04:403 (1,2) - this
2016-09-15 01:26 CrystilonZ: and
2016-09-15 01:26 CrystilonZ: these
2016-09-15 01:26 CrystilonZ: 03:02:310 (1,2,3,4) -
2016-09-15 01:26 Hobbes2: I do see your point tho
2016-09-15 01:27 CrystilonZ: then can you change
2016-09-15 01:27 CrystilonZ: 03:02:310 (1,2,3,4) - into circles?
2016-09-15 01:27 CrystilonZ: they feel very unbalanced right now
2016-09-15 01:28 CrystilonZ: but if you're changing them into 1/4 circles, also consider changing 03:01:961 (3,4,5,6) - to 1/8 slider with reverses
2016-09-15 01:28 CrystilonZ: to give the drums their emphasis they should have
2016-09-15 01:28 Hobbes2: good point
2016-09-15 01:28 Hobbes2: ill do that
2016-09-15 01:29 CrystilonZ: hue that's all >,<
2016-09-15 01:29 CrystilonZ: this is probably the best i could get since I can't play it :/
2016-09-15 01:30 Hobbes2: aye, thanks for the mod :p
2016-09-15 01:30 CrystilonZ: oh wait
2016-09-15 01:30 CrystilonZ: 02:41:554 (2,3,4) -
2016-09-15 01:30 CrystilonZ: rip
2016-09-15 01:30 CrystilonZ: stack
2016-09-15 01:30 CrystilonZ: don't do manual stack here lol just let the game do it
2016-09-15 01:32 Hobbes2: lmao that wasn't intentional
2016-09-15 01:32 Hobbes2: fixed
2016-09-15 01:32 CrystilonZ: and
2016-09-15 01:32 CrystilonZ: you probably want to see if blankets in Lilyanna's diffs are off or not
2016-09-15 01:33 CrystilonZ: i can detect some but you're far better than me lol
2016-09-15 01:33 Hobbes2: yeah ill probably irc her
2016-09-15 01:33 CrystilonZ: I'll just mod anything besides blankets XD
2016-09-15 01:34 Hobbes2: I used to mod pretty much only blankets, which isn't a good reputation to have lol
2016-09-15 01:34 Hobbes2: I think my general modding is better now at least :v
2016-09-15 01:34 CrystilonZ: lol XD
2016-09-15 01:34 CrystilonZ: best blanket detector
I will leave blankets, stacking, and polishing stuff to Hobbes2 lol. He's a lot better than me. I will just focus on the rhythm and patterns.
[Normal]
- 00:58:124 (3,4,5) - 01:48:356 (3,4,5) - I suggest you use this rhythm instead. This intensity & density rise is a bit too sudden and doesn't fit with how this diff is mapped.
- 03:03:705 (3,4,5) - On the other hand, for these, i suggest you use the rhythm below, because "Hobbes2: those are like the strongest 1/8 drums in the song." Thus, the density rise should provide a good emphasis on these.
- Drain Sections like 00:16:263 - should not appear in Hard. Just put a break there
- 00:53:938 (1,2,3,4) - rip sliders lol. Can you polish them?
- 00:10:508 (4,5,6,7,8) - i don't really agree with copy-pasting this pattern but oh well, this is up to you
- 00:39:984 (1,2,3) - This applies to all similar patterns. Can you polish them by making them look aesthetically equally apart?
I will just stop here orz. It's 2 am. Nothing much imo, this is pretty good
