Awesome because the beatmap submission thing is a bit volatile right now. It'd also be nice for mods to be able to see how often the most current version of a song in the "Completed Beatmaps" and "Beatmap Help!" has been downloaded. Some of them aren't getting a whole lot of attention.

Oooooooh. We'll see.
*plays Ouendan 2*
Conclusion- fire/head pops up at 30, then 60, then 100, then every 50 thereafter.
*plays Ouendan 1*
Same conclusion.
*plays Elite Beat Agents*
Same conclusion, only without fire. Leaders head still pops up.
So why the change, Peppy?
Ok, I get it now. Sorry for the confusion!
Isn't missing the end hit on sliders supposed to kill the combo?
? Both Extor and ZZT mentioned this as being the correct behaviour in ouendan 1, 2 and EBA.
. Oh and sorry for the double-build for those who already downloaded! I should stop doing this, really.
Maybe I need to make those buttons a bit more clear? Hide in Play will automatically show chat during breaks and hide it during gameplay.
THANK YOU!
This has been bugging me for sooo long, I'm glad you finally squashed it.
Then again, it wasn't very important in the first place.
On a related note, in EBA (and Ouendan, I believe), when the scorebar fills at the beginning, the marker is actually on the yellow the entire time; the red part "grows" into it. I don't know if it's necessary to recreate that effect (it'd actually mess up most skins) but it's worth noticing, because it makes it very clear that you're not starting from a "!!" state.
Or it can an analysis. But yeah, that is a long vacation.
And LuigiHann, solved your own concern thingie eh? GOOD JOB! Though the idea is a little strange maybe, but yeah, it does ruin themes...unless you have two separate files, one being the red area and one the yellow and have the yellow extend out, then have the red fly in from the left. Of course, that would look ugly and it wouldn't be something you'd see in the game, huh?
. home in a few days, so lets see how things go after that!
And good luck getting yourself back on track with the coding skills, :3. Pretty nice updates, at the least. Especially the unplayed song one.

(+) Beatmap submission integration in osu!. Mostly complete, just needs some touch-ups.
Not much else to say really. Tonight I was able to upload the osz and separate osu files, enter them in the database, and post to the forums all from within osu! with no more than two mouse clicks. Things seem to be going prettty good.

(+) Current time counter added to test mode.
(+) Forum posts from in-game submission are linked to beatmap database.
(*) Huge optimisations in sprite management (CPU load).
(*) Small optimisations in GPU drawing calls. Unfortunately it seems like I'm hitting a fill-rate limit with starbursts during gameplay. Can people who get lag with this effect please report it?
(*) Scratch that. Did some optimising on star-bursts and now maintain a constant 60fps on my nvidia card. Lets see how this goes.
(*) Combo fire effect capped at a lower maximum height. It looks better this way.
They say "don't optimise until its broked". I say don't optimise until someone complains. Ivalset was whinging about fps drop with the star-burst effect last night, so I set out to fix this problem tonight. After about 5 hours of code changes and research into d3d calls, I managed to cut over 50% of the cpu time required for the sprite rendering loop, and reduced shader loads quite significantly. Hopefully some of you with lower-end PCs will feel this change more than I do, making it worth the effort I put into it. Should be up public tomorrow sometime.
Also made a bit of progress on beatmap submission. Now I can hit the submit button and my osz/osu files will upload, and a post with a template header will be submitted to the forums. All that is left is to add support for editing/bumping posts which have an update since the initial beatmap version. This will not require a reupload of the osz file as I'll handle this with server-side zipping of new files inside the old osz (unless something like video gets added.. but there will be a prompt for reuploading the osz file too).
Oh wow, its 4am too. *misses sleep*

Love the random feature. All I can say is, now it needs a Ctrl+G to GO! and start the song so you can pick a random song without fussing with the cursor.

Luckily that was test version only (full game breakage). Fixed now. If this happens in the future you can always swap to the public release .
As for chat not working - MCXD can you try again? I swapped over to a new irc server located at irc.ppy.sh on #osu if you want to test that directly too.

When chat is open, click the button to the bottom-right that says "Hide in Play" so it swaps to "Always show".K-S-O wrote:

Maybe I need to make those buttons a bit more clear? Hide in Play will automatically show chat during breaks and hide it during gameplay.

Okay, new version up which makes those buttons less ambiguous. Go update if you want to .

(*) Removed tilde key as a shortcut for opening chat window due to breaking some keyboard layouts.
(*) Fixed bug where local replays were not being retained.
(*) Fixed bug where spectator mode would stop working until restart of osu!
(*) Fixed send rate of replays.
So i typed this once but got another bluescreen on my pc. I really need to replace my RAM - it keeps failing parity at random points in time.... about 3 bluescreens a day :/.
Anyway, new public is up with bug fixes from the last two days. There was a pretty serious problem which meant replay data was up to 10x the size it should be when stored to the online database, so I felt that this build should go up ASAP. Therefore, you might experience some inaccuracies with spectator mode, as I am halfway through remodelling the sync process associated with it.
Will probably do another public tomorrow or friday.

omg ;.;
so which one do we want?! lol.
maybe we'll do it this way - if the song has an intro period that means the ki doesnt start increasing at 0seconds, it will start as '!!', otherwise just go up with 'ki' the whole way? this kind of makes sense, yeah?

HMM well in my mind there are two options:
1.
Have it automatically decided whether to have it start on '!!' or 'ki' depending on this condition:
If the intro to the song is greater than ~10seconds (the time it takes for the metre to fill up) then it will start as a '!!' else it will be a 'ki'.
Otherwise, it will be a 'ki' all the way.
2.
Always use one of the two options.
Maybe we need a poll?

I missed this discussion earlier, but why not just make it an option for the beatmapper? I think it's only going to be a rare occasion when starting from "!!" is preferable.peppy wrote:

On a related note, in EBA (and Ouendan, I believe), when the scorebar fills at the beginning, the marker is actually on the yellow the entire time; the red part "grows" into it. I don't know if it's necessary to recreate that effect (it'd actually mess up most skins) but it's worth noticing, because it makes it very clear that you're not starting from a "!!" state.
Well peppy is in Japan on holiday, so even without his internet connection at home being down and his family away on holiday as well and no easy way to fix the problem, you couldn't blame him for not updating. But it so happens that his internet connection at home IS down and etc etc etc. So don't complain! He'll be back home in a week, after which development will snowball back up to peppy-esque proportions.ZZT the Fifth wrote:

...I wish I could go on a vacation that long.
Turns out I was mostly wrong; the situation I described only occurs if you hit the skip button during the beginning of the song. Normally this doesn't happen.LuigiHann wrote:

Or it can an analysis. But yeah, that is a long vacation.
And LuigiHann, solved your own concern thingie eh? GOOD JOB!
Though the idea is a little strange maybe, but yeah, it does ruin themes...unless you have two separate files, one being the red area and one the yellow and have the yellow extend out, then have the red fly in from the left. Of course, that would look ugly and it wouldn't be something you'd see in the game, huh? It'd definitely mess with the Wind Waker skin because of the "unique" lifebar approach. It took me a while to notice, but even the current spinner graphic doesn't co-operate with the lifebar (during spinners, you can still see the very top of the screen, which is normally blocked off by the lifebar's background). I'd change it, but I don't have the heart to make everyone have to redownload that one image/update the copy in the osume package. It's pretty negligeable anyway, riiiight?
Yeah, yeah, forget I said anything. I was in error, and I'd edit it out except it'd mess up the conversation now.

There is a bug with beatmap editing in the latest test build. Stay out of Edit Mode on the newest test build, else it will erase all the hitobjects on the beatmap you are editing when you attempt to test/run it.
That is all.
