So good~

It must spending you lots of time working on it >_<

Fucking awesome.

[General]
I recommend skinning the hitlightning (the entire time is kiai, so they're all visible if you have custom ones and it can mar the effect you've gone for), warning arrows, sectionpass/fail image and sound and especially hitbursts considering the default hitburst's habit of covering everything with ugly. Try to offset the text of the hitburst so it's above the notes too, to avoid that covering.

That said, end your kiai on all difficulties, please.

These gameplay mods are assuming these maps are not authentic (at least, authentic as possible considering the multiple notes at once in the original game) and are mainly considerations towards mouse users (like myself).

[Instructions]
I recommend having some text instructing to not hit the skip button combined with the introduction to the map.

[Easy]
00:39:833 (1) - This spot may be good to use one of the purple note sets with the vocal (I've only played this game like twice, so I don't know if the easier difficulty levels used those types of notes)
02:01:500 (2) - Have this start near the top so that there isn't a "jump" for an easy

[Normal]
01:08:166 (1) - End this at 01:09:166 - to reduce the jump a bit
01:10:500 (2) - This felt off considering the long hold note before following the vocal. Probably best to add a note at 01:10:166 -
01:14:833 (1,2,3,4) - Maybe start from the top to reduce jump distance?

[Hard]
00:56:000 (1,1) - This is a pretty tough jump.
01:14:666 (8,1) - ^

[Maniac]
HP drain is brutal on this. Especially when you jump off a hold note prematurely. It's like a death sentence. x_x
00:03:750 (1) - What is this snapped to? Probably meant to be at 00:03:833 - , right?
01:08:500 (3) - Is this out of bounds?

These gameplay mods are assuming these maps are not authentic (at least, authentic as possible considering the multiple notes at once in the original game) and are mainly considerations towards mouse users (like myself). I'm a mouse user too. I can only beat hard and maniac with hp drain down to 0. For future modders, please mod according to playability on osu! Osu! is not Technika and can't be, though perhaps touchscreen users will find it easier, so we have to work within the limitations of this particular game.

[Instructions]
I recommend having some text instructing to not hit the skip button combined with the introduction to the map. Done. Also removing the sectionpass/fail as they obstruct the text, and put in some arrows letting you know when to hit the first four notes.

[Easy] all done
00:39:833 (1) - This spot may be good to use one of the purple note sets with the vocal (I've only played this game like twice, so I don't know if the easier difficulty levels used those types of notes)
02:01:500 (2) - Have this start near the top so that there isn't a "jump" for an easy

[Hard] all done

01:14:666 (8,1) - ^

[Maniac]
HP drain is brutal on this. Especially when you jump off a hold note prematurely. It's like a death sentence. x_x dropped it down to 6. The difficulties will need to be tweaked significantly so that it's sort of passable.
00:03:750 (1) - What is this snapped to? Probably meant to be at 00:03:833 - , right? No, amazingly not. You can take a look at the video I based the map off of here.
01:08:500 (3) - Is this out of bounds? yep, there was another one earlier too.

Things left to do:
Put in countdown + flash at beginning of each measure
Make the storyboarded elements kiai.
Make the hold notes quiet (will experiment with silencing soft-hitnormal).

I think there are some yellows(you know, the sliders) don't fit the beats...

For example:
01:55:666 (1) - in Normal
00:43:833 (1) - in Hard
00:43:832 (1) - in Maniac

Jubosu Technikosu what's the next?

Shino wrote:

For example:
01:55:666 (1) - in Normal Maps "I love" as Tari's voice falls in pitch.

00:43:832 (1) - in Maniac ^

In hard and maniac I just copied from the PP and TP versions I found on youtube.

the crazy part is the map is easy compared to the original. I think it's much easier on a touchscreen, but as I don't have one, there's no way I can tell.

Hi~

Storyboard mod

~Thoughts and suggestions~
[*] I just love it <3 And I can see all the work you've been putting on this to make it so similar, so congrats for it, it's amazing
[*] You should really use custom sounds xP Some parts of the map sound weird or are a bit unintuitive and I kinda think is because of the hitsounds xP
[*] In [Instructions], some of the texts are a bit hard to see because of the background and the bars (http://osu.ppy.sh/ss/82190), maybe move them to white parts of the bg?

~Issues and adjustments~
[Normal]
- All the holdoverlays still appear after the hold bar dissapears.
01:57:500 - This looks pretty weird, it looks like if a part of the bar is missing, is it like that in Technika? o_O
02:00:000 - ^

[Hard]
00:30:916 - ^

[Maniac]
- All the holdoverlays and repeatoverlays are missing.
01:25:583 - Same as I already said.
01:45:583 - ^

General mod (ignore all of these suggestions if they're like that for authenticity)

~Instructions~
- I guess it's okay to rank this since it's going for approval huh? xP

~Easy~
No problems here!

~Normal~
00:44:000 (1) - Extend to the white tick?
01:55:666 (1) - Extend to the red tick? (Or maybe the white tick)

[Normal]
- All the holdoverlays still appear after the hold bar dissapears. I half want to move it back to WIP while I finish these, but they're way tedious to do after the entire SB is done, and I haven't had the time lately.
01:57:500 - This looks pretty weird, it looks like if a part of the bar is missing, is it like that in Technika? o_O
02:00:000 - ^ I can't remember anymore. It is weird and unnecessary so I'll delete them

[Hard]
00:30:916 - ^ This one is tougher because it goes over to the next measure. I made it one beat longer

[Maniac]
- All the holdoverlays and repeatoverlays are missing. Saving the hardest for last
01:25:583 - Same as I already said.
01:45:583 - ^ These are authentic, but technika fills in the bar. I didn't want to, as it was confusing to me, and the timing bar is still on the screen in osu, but disappears in technika. It's an easy fix later if I want to extend the first part out further.

Heh, i get this when i try to start the map.. uhm. can somebody post a video of this map?

Was wondering why Cold Pizza is graveyarded. So I guess you were working on this

godlike

Sooo, why is this in WIP

I have to redo the tutorial transcript, debug normal's storyboard, and input new custom hitsounds in the tutorial/easy/normal, and upload a custom lighting.png nothing.

star~ >w<

I'm rather speechless, to say the least.
You have turned osu! into a different game, and it still plays well.
However, I find it odd that Hard is ranked higher than Maniac even though it seems like it shouldn't, but that's not a problem.
Although, it seems odd that you have the section-pass and section-fail images skin, but not the sound, you should add a blank wav for those two.
Other than hearing the sounds of passing and failing, I would be able to bubble this, and will if you fix that.

I removed the images because it was distracting on the tutorial. Hopefully a 0 byte file will work just fine, if not I'll get a blank wav or something.

I'm unsure as to why Hard has a higher star rating. I think it's because the note spacing on the timeline is very strange, whereas maniac is even notes/really long streams. If BATs could change Maniac's star rating to 5, that would be super, but this probably won't be implemented until osz2. It is, without a doubt, one of the hardest maps I've ever played on osu.

I want to create a taiko map!~ can you put it..?

Sorry, no.

were this a normal map I'd welcome a taiko, but it's not, and it's not like this is a unique song to osu.

Best simulated Technica IVE EVER SEEN.AWESEME JOB!!! *kudostar*

With the new DJMAX osuka skin coming along, please be patient while I update the skin a little, and possibly change the name so future technika style maps all have something similar in them.

Edit: and we're all set. Hope everyone likes the new skin.

Pure awsomeness. Specially the blue note

By the way, don't they have a count-down whenever the blue timing line is about to come out?

!

so awesome..

Yes, and in previous versions I had the flash.png uploaded, but I never made it because in actual technika, it is really a countdown, and after it's done, the approach bar appears.

I'll work on it a little bit, as I already have the graphics made, I just never implemented it.

osuka banzai~!! lol

Oh my god.....
Love this!

Though I never play DJMax before, it's really great to get some experience in osu.
lol, star~

I've never played either, though I would love to try. I don't think there are any machines within 300 miles of where I live though...

my android pad plays it alright, but no stacking, colors, sounds, or storyboard, so I'm not getting the real feel.

Awesome!!!

Great idea. Star~

As mentioned in my previous post, this is really an awesome map, and it deserves a kudo star
For each diff, please remove the inheriting sections pairs which has nothing between them. (Example: http://osu.ppy.sh/ss/103703)

Sweet, thanks. This map isn't sight readable at all, since it literally is a different game, so some of the things that will catch people (like the bigger jumps) won't be surprises when they actually go to play it.

WARNING [UNRANKABLE MATERIAL] WARNING

I-I think it's osu!ka. :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

I called it Osu!max in my video, but the skin is called osuka, and exclamation points always cause problems.

reminds me about the game "finger melody" on ipad
great SB!

Next goal is for MOST EVER. Bring it on ΔMAX.

updated with the 44 byte audio silencers because apparently they cause a problem, but only when looped? Oh well. Another day, another full submit.

And I fixed the purple color on hard, even though I never use it...

This is nicely made! Not a big fan of the quiet hitsounds (makes me feel like I'm missing when I'm not) but maybe that's intentional when keeping the source material in mind, I don't know.

I hope to see this in the approved section someday.

I believe you must have a approach circle. This is osu! You can't just turn it into another game. Unrankable stuff dude... >.< You see, people can't just go in and edit the beatmap and take away the skin by hand.. That's just way to hard for everyone who wants to play it normally.. It's an awesome beatmap, but this can't be rankable unless you do something about this.

Edit.
Hey, wouldn't it be cool if this was another playing style to pick, just like CtB and taiko? Hm.. I dunno. It would be another good use with your mouse/tablet/etc because it's so much the same.

I dunno.. ;__;

Ask a MAT or a BAT. They'll probably know about this stuff.

BUT IT CAN'T BE POSSIBLE! They're blinded by the awesomeness and can't see that this in reality.. Can't happen here on osu! We all have guide-lines to follow when mapping.. This creates a separate style of playing! What we're used to, is now different! Hardrock won't work and hidden is just the same! ;__; Shall we show this to peppy and see what he has to say? I have no idea what will happen with this beatmap. People will find this in beatmaps, when it's not really the osu! they're used to play.

How can anyone play hidden?

Also, playing with an approach circle is hard as hell unless you know the song (one more reason approach rate is so low). Unfortunately for me, I've played it so much I know it backwards and forwards so I just ignore them if I turn them on.

NB rangers returns got approved in the past. Even though the ranking criteria has changed significantly, it was clearly not rankable/approvable then, and was approved for its sheer awesomeness. Unfortunately nobody has tried to recreate this until I made this (I found one other example, but I think they gave up on it). I think if they had, we would have more technika styled maps. I certainly plan on making more. Next up will probably be shoreline.

"playing with an approach circle is hard as hell unless you know the song". wat? You do know that you can play a song without any sound thanks to the approach circle right? And because this beatmap is missing this and we're only to rely on the SB which most people are completely unfamiliar with!! CRAZY!!!


Also.. WHAAAAAAAAT. That's strange.. I didn't know such beatmap existed and could be ranked before.. But that's an old beatmap. It still doesn't make any sense that it should be allowed. THIS IS OSU! GODDAMMIT ;____;

Looooool. I see why people like it. And is it kiai abuse to have kiai time for the entire map?

If you're good enough to play it with the approach circle, you're good enough to learn how to play it with the approach bar.

yes. But the whole point of kiai is that the stars are annoying. I do it because it helps keep the beat and because it's authentic.
