Eff this,we're getting a few moar characters and make 'em
the Elite Four,Champion and them Frontier Brains.



Jou's Red.


Alternatively,we can take the PnM method and collectively
call them the Hell14.
I forgot if that term has a limit of four songs though

Mata is harder than Hataraku? Bullsh*t. Pure bullsh*t.
Zekira
Mata is harder than Hataraku?
Yes it is. Consider that the biggest factor in the difficulty is the physical do-ability of the song. Hataraku is all sightreading; you can even mash the shit out of Hataraku and FC it accidentally. Mata requires you to rape your hands first.

That movie was awesome! Why are English localizations of Layton games so slooooowww...

I could pass matasaitama (a few weeks on osu) muuuch quicker than hataraku (7 months on ds). I still have difficulty passing hataraku on the ds cos you can't button mash. :| I just had to be really really accurate on the slow parts to survive the last go go time & pass.

@betawatcher: the drawings were by crystalsuicune. The other effects are aqua's. I don't have any idea what brushes are though so... meh














And random pic

@ Zekira Haha, your table reminds me of mine - pringles + tissues XP



Aah, kiiro no kami o yurashi, aah chiisana kutsu o narashi nagara, odoru kimi no pavane~

I lost my 4th mechanical pencil in the span of 1 year OTL Using pen does give my drawings an interesting effect though. As long as it's not one of those wet ones.
Topic Starter
aquabluu
I used three different brush sets.

The arcane circle brush set, all set at 25 to 30% roundness for flat effect. Outer glow effect used is Vivid Light.
The gear set with clock hands, opacity set at 80%
The rose set in the BG, with Overlay for the grey areas and regular fill for the white.

The text was downloaded off dafont since I thought it looked sharp and simple XD Dark blue with Linear Burn and the glow used is Hard Light.

The rest of the BG was rearranging the stuff crystal provided :)
betawatcher
I only use photoshop for manga editing (removal of japanese text & sfx & replace them with english ones) so i'm only really good with black & white images. :P

Hi people,

I'm doing re-upload mirror downloads of the off-site Taiko Authentic maps.
Since the maps are kinda all over the place, and the main taiko site seems to be down (or is it just me who can't see it?)
Either way, it's good to have a couple mirrors, I suppose. Mediafire, since it's more or less the most reliable.

Wouldn't mind if you put the link on the front~ ^^

More Saitama~


No IDK what I was thinking either.


I just needed to fill this page with something lol. Uh, someone teach me how to draw Saitama side view please T_T





And... oh my. It's the end of the first sketch pad!
We've gone quite a journey, guys...



...my creations... no, my children!

Even though I know that I drew this, seeing them smiling back at me makes me feel... happy. Real happiness. REALLY happy. For some odd reason.

I welcome both of you to the world!

I think you can be some creator of something XD

Be uploading some stuff sometime over next few days (if I can get online)

@CoroQuetz: Is it possible to direct link the files? We've been setting up a new forum where all the links will go to, and you'd be a big help~
Zekira
The MF link will direct to the MF DL, just like Send Space. However, MF is more reliable in that I don't see files getting deleted (at least in my account, lol)

A premium MF user can share direct links though

Sure thing~
Just direct me to wherever the list is~

I've been wondering... who's this Mirai?

Random: I love play-asia... I bought Pokemon Black & opted for free shipping and it arrived in 7 days. (technically arrived in Malaysia in 4 days according to customs) <3 Gah, makes me wanna shop for m-more!!!
OzzyOzrock
Mirai is some donder drawer or something.

OH GOD THAT SOUNDS DISGRACEFUL
Coro
@ Ozzy Kidaruma is almost ready, could you help me with the last bits? Post on the submission thread, thx
Mara
damn don don everywhere

just sayin'
Zekira
@betawatcher: she's basically the reason why a few of us here are pretty much raving over the chibianthro fandom

If you remember this:



This is Mirai's work. And she's been drawing a lot, lot more in other various places (which I'm inevitably stalking, heheheh. http://twitter.com/mirya5 and http://twitpic.com/photos/mirya5 are mainly where. Sometimes her pixiv too: http://www.pixiv.net/member.php?id=610079 )

So basically she's the root cause of the chibianthro fandom here :D
Zekira
Next pad now.


I really wanna try her, so... yeah. Gonna keep at it.

Maybe eventually I'll be able to draw Ryougen too, IDK...


Just tried to do something in 15 minutes and this is what I thought up of.

Nothing much comes to mind lately...

It'd be great if we could have all the authentic maps that we have collected so far to be ranked as well.
Topic Starter
aquabluu
Woah, does that mean we can mass-submit all the Taiko authentics we made and get them ranked now?? :D That would save so much effort and solve all the hosting problems! (in the long-term)
lepidopodus
Uh, that's just about ranking charts in here, not about making Taiko-only mapset ranked. At least we will be able to exclude some really annoying maps in ranking charts when playing Taiko. It will make players pleased, especially players in top-ranking.
Zekira
Uh, you guys misunderstood; Ranking Charts has very little to do with the map ranking process ._.

Ranking Charts is that monthly challenge in osu!; every month, scores are recorded from a set of maps decided by the staff. It's basically an Overall Player Ranking that is done monthly. orz

Actually, she trolled me on this one too.♥

I hate Linkle Link.
Should I take a plane to somewhere to unlock lots of nice songs? I am not that rich.

Anyway, IIDX 19 with online mode won't be available in Korea. Only Jubeat, Reflecbeat, Drummania support e-amusement, due to bad situation of Korean arcade game market and silly restrictions of Korean government.

Well, as allready mentioned before, it's true, but after get into it, it's not this hard anymore.
But it depends more on the song. t+pazolite is easy to map hard, slow musics not.

If you excuse me please, I'm going to prepare everythign for the coming day when DarkDunskin has arrive(YAHO!). lol

OK it's because of me I think…eh heheheheh

I think we should make an absolute definition for the term "overmapping", sine right now that is pretty much just up to personal opinions.

That's what I think too.
Also the star system is different as in TnT I would say. Overmapping has also something to do with the star system and hitting a drum or a keyboard are two different play styles. So the star system need to be made higher(Over 10☆) or just the standart lvl made harder(max still 10☆).
Well, tought just to mention that - Not like we are making now one or so. lol
Topic Starter
aquabluu
Can't we just follow the standard Namco made and go with it?
Zekira
My general definition of overmapping: if the notes don't fit the song, it's either overmapped or undermapped. Simple as that.

IMO, it's a per song basis. All of the 7 god songs in TnT are all chaotic songs one way or another, which would then make their charts OK.
So instead of bickering on the map itself, my personal course of action is to find better songs for difficulty instead of forcing a really difficult map on songs that are generally OK.

Well as before mentioned, keyboard =/= drums.
We have allready a Namco star system, aquabluu system, ddrddr125 system, 1miko1 system, other systems and the ono system. Seams little bit stupid to me to be honest.

A 8* map for me is for the most people allready 10-12* or more, I mean, what? You don't want honestly tell me kkdkd patterns or 9 pattern-k/d streams are allready 12* on the keyboard. lol
The standarts here has also changed into a huge lvl. We have allready problems to say which lvl Firce Maps, Taikosaki and Shinsekai has because we keep it so low. For me this makes no sence, sorry.

I mean, I don't want to force now people to make a big change or so. xD
But to mention that is not bad.
