00:02 Stefan: yo
00:02 Stefan: helo
00:02 Weber: sup

00:03 Stefan: got time for a little IRC mod?
00:03 Weber: not a huge fan of IRC mods but sure
00:04 *Weber is editing [https://osu.ppy.sh/b/1181620 Kazumi Totaka - K.K. Song [Kantan]]
00:04 Stefan: Oh well, we'll be fast done
00:05 Weber: cool
00:05 Stefan: 00:03:668 - 00:11:141 - That part could be revamped, mostly because of the hitsounds.
00:05 Stefan: for example, it makes no sense if you put 00:04:735 (3) - as Kat but before you made 00:03:668 (1) - as Don.
00:05 Stefan: While the sounds are very similar.
00:06 Stefan: #And I think we don't need to include so many circles for the Kantan Difficulty
00:07 Weber: i think its necessary in all difficulties to hit all of the prominent melody's notes at the very least
00:07 Weber: or at least come close
00:07 Weber: this is as bare bones as I could make it without it sounding funny
00:07 Weber: i mean
00:08 Weber: i guess I could remove these 00:05:269 (4) - ?
00:08 Stefan: 00:03:668 - 00:06:870 -
https://derpovic.s-ul.eu/JnG7T82S.png00:08 Stefan: Just compare the sounds on 00:05:269 - and 00:04:201 - with 00:06:337 -
00:09 Stefan: 00:06:337 isn't comparable with the other two spots
00:09 Stefan: if you go with the height of sound.
00:09 Stefan: 00:07:938 - 00:11:675 -
https://derpovic.s-ul.eu/rL9Moxgb.png00:09 Stefan: that could be switched instead.
00:09 Weber: hm
00:10 Weber: yeah i think thats a good idea
00:11 Stefan: 00:11:675 - 00:18:080 - You saw already that (11) on the last picture was changed to Don
00:11 Weber: i think starting from here
00:11 Weber: 00:11:675 (11) -
00:11 Weber: should be dkdk
00:11 Stefan: maybe you can also switch here?
00:11 Weber: wait whoops
00:11 Stefan: from d to k and the opposite?
00:11 Weber: 00:11:675 (11) -
00:11 Stefan: O
00:11 Weber: ?
00:11 Stefan: well, then k to d instead
00:11 Stefan: Well, yeah, that's also okay to have dkdk
00:12 Weber: your words are confusing me just send me a screenshot LOL
00:12 Weber: alright cool
00:12 Weber: so are the k's fine until 00:11:675 (11) -
00:12 Weber: ?
00:12 Stefan:
https://derpovic.s-ul.eu/J1M1BfDI.png00:13 Stefan: Yes
00:13 Stefan: they are
00:14 Weber: im not sure i like this dkdkdk until 18
00:14 Weber: theres no real change in the sound to warrant it
00:14 Weber: thats why I had them all as k
00:15 Stefan: Well, that is true (I even question it at first about (1) and (3) at the begin)
00:15 Stefan: However
00:15 Stefan: I believe it's still more interesting to switch since it's probably a more interesting way to make this rather calm part cooler to play.
00:16 Stefan: It was a maybe after all.
If you disagree, that's okay.
00:18 Stefan: Anyways, when you're done we can move to Futsuu
00:18 Weber: alright
00:18 *Weber is editing [https://osu.ppy.sh/b/1181619 Kazumi Totaka - K.K. Song [Futsuu]]
00:18 Stefan: aight
00:19 Stefan: 00:07:404 (10,11) - I'd find it more natural without these two notes. Okay, (10) may fits with the beep sound in the background.
00:20 Stefan: but (11) feels really forced if you ask me.
00:20 Weber: i'll remove 11
00:25 Stefan: 00:11:808 - Try adding a note here. and move 00:14:077 (27) - afterwards to 00:13:810 -
00:25 Stefan: kdd d sounds imo really nice and fits better to the Muzukashii (which is full of 1/2 notes).
00:26 Stefan: and 00:14:077 (27) - is definitely on a better spot on 00:13:810 - .
00:28 Stefan: 00:14:877 - 00:16:479 - could work similar here:https://derpovic.s-ul.eu/bHvKH02W.png
00:29 Stefan: and 00:17:013 - 00:18:614 -
https://derpovic.s-ul.eu/4wa4Kpbg.png00:29 Weber: wait
00:29 Weber: where is kdd d
00:31 Stefan: 00:11:675 - 00:12:208 -
00:32 Weber: alright
00:32 Stefan: Are the other two parts I've pointed above clear?
00:33 Weber: wait
00:33 Weber: okay
00:33 Weber: look
00:33 Weber: can you say those last two things
00:34 Weber: and make ABSOLUTELY SURE your indicator is where it is exactly in the screenshot
00:34 Weber: i really hate irc
00:35 Stefan: Okay, uhm
00:37 Stefan: 00:14:344 - 00:16:479 -
https://derpovic.s-ul.eu/a5HNmcSN.png (29) starts at 00:14:344 - and (3) ends on 00:16:479 -
00:39 Stefan: 00:17:013 - 00:18:614 -
https://derpovic.s-ul.eu/4wa4Kpbg.png (3) starts on 00:17:013 - and (9) ends on 00:18:164 -
00:39 Weber: give me 10 minutes
00:39 Stefan: Sure.
00:40 Stefan: sorry,
https://derpovic.s-ul.eu/DDyC1z7L.png *(4) and (10)
00:40 Stefan: My bad. x_x
00:41 Weber: okay
00:41 Weber: why are there 1/2 notes there
00:42 Weber: i mean triplets
00:42 Weber: this is what I have
00:43 Weber:
https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/710072800:43 Stefan: Well, your Muzukashii is full of Stream patterns, basically
00:44 Stefan: You need to have a somewhat existent curve
00:44 Stefan: if you want to go from Futsuu to Muzukashii
00:44 Stefan: Yes, that'd be Triplets on half-bpm (112,4)
00:45 Stefan: But even then this would be under very special condition acceptable.
00:45 Weber: okay look
00:45 Weber: i really dont understand the rhythms you've put forth in those screenshots
00:45 Weber: could you send me your .osu
00:45 Stefan: Well, sure.
00:45 Weber: sorry but this is frustrating me way more than it should
00:46 Stefan:
https://derpovic.s-ul.eu/OuMQiKc9.txt00:46 Stefan: Just changed the first loop.
00:48 Weber: okay
00:48 Weber: now i see
00:49 Weber: honestly i think these rhythms are too complex for the very simple repeating music inbetween the main rhythms
00:49 Stefan: Then we need to nerf the Muzukashii
00:50 Stefan: The gap between these two difficulties is too big
00:50 Stefan: despite it's just a three difficulty set
00:51 Stefan: Well, got nothing more to add into the Futsuu Difficulty. I just thought it would be nicer to have some more variation here
00:52 Stefan: and to connect better to the upcoming Stream pattern in Muzukashii.
00:53 Stefan: Waiting for you whenever you're ready for Muzukashii.
00:55 Weber: alright
00:56 Weber: ready
00:56 Stefan: Aye, let's see
00:58 Stefan: 00:06:070 (15,16,17,18,19,20,21) - after you decided to not use kdd pattern for the Futsuu, things like that are too long and breaks the gap drastically.
00:58 Stefan: while it's okay to have ooo ooo as long it's not completely continous, this is too much
00:59 Weber: how about
00:59 Weber: ddkdddk
00:59 Weber: for that
00:59 Weber: so that the k's land on the main notes in the melody
01:00 Stefan: yknow
01:00 Stefan: this can technically be called Oni
01:00 Stefan: And it'd rather fit this way.
01:00 Stefan: I am not complaining about the rhythm choice
01:01 Stefan: it's pretty interesting and nicely done.
01:01 Weber: i understand its really dense
01:01 Stefan: It's not just really dense.
01:01 Stefan: It's too dense.
01:01 Weber: but i tried coming up with something that was between what I have now for futsuu and muzukashii and it didn't really work
01:02 Stefan: You don't have any of these ooo pattern like 00:05:002 (9,10,11) - in the Futsuu Difficulty
01:03 Stefan: While they're widely present in Muzukashii.
01:03 Stefan: And you even have longer pattern like 00:06:070 (15,16,17,18,19,20,21) -
01:04 Stefan: Mapping the prominent sounds and effects is important, yes.
01:04 Stefan: But a constant difficulty curve too.
01:04 Weber: b-b-b-b-b-b-but they all have their corresponding icons :^)
01:05 Weber: kidding
01:05 Weber: i do see what you mean
01:05 Stefan: KAntan > Futsuu works okayish, could be better imo but it's fine for now
01:05 Stefan: I mean, you want this to be ranked, or?
01:05 Weber: yes
01:05 Stefan: Well, I am picking on this because I too want this map to be ranked.
01:06 Stefan: That's why I am telling you it won't be able with the current spread.
01:06 Stefan: Or in the state it is currently.
01:06 Weber: so what are you suggesting
01:07 Stefan: To be really honest, if you really don't want to nerf the Muzukashii I'd suggest doing an easier one
01:07 Stefan: and rename the current Muzukashii in Oni.
01:07 Stefan: You can use less of the density in the current Muzukashii
01:07 Stefan: but being more complex than Futsuu.
01:08 Weber: alright i'll try it
