I would not call this as Duplicate, but I feel like it's in the wrong forum.. this is more a Case for the Technical Support.
Otherwise, Taiko Difficult BGs should not be streched.

I agree, moving to technical support.

It looks like we'll need a new taiko BG template to fit in widescreen

It's the issue with the new widescreen support, this has already been brought up and planned(?) to be fixed.

Do not make a new taiko bg template. Instead wait until i hard-code "taiko bg" into osu!, then fix all the created ones (by removing them).

Old BGs will not be fixed. They will be replaced with newly coded parameters according to peppy.

Taiko-speicifc backgrounds will no longer be rankable. I will figure a way to fix older maps, likely by removing the backgrounds server-side.

It's a pity this couldn't have been fixed earlier, but no one brought it up with me

I don't know how it was supposed to be unrankable to begin with. We were allowed to choose different backgrounds per difficulty. We were allowed by the rules without specification of gamemode to have such things. I really hope you don't have to go diff by diff and delete them. and IDK why people would go to you when according to the rules they could make them this way. It would be more of a miscommunication on the rule creators on whether or not this would be allowed, not the fault of the mappers.

Basing backgrounds around dimensions which were never made official is a bit silly. On top of that, I didn't realise people were making tiny half-size backgrounds. This breaks song select, and may break the mode in future (like it just did

).

Can't Taiko-Diffs has specific options about the dimensions of the BG?
They actually had this before, that the BG got moved for a big part at the bottom.

...
The creativity and fun of having nice Taiko-specific BGs seems gone.
However, the widescreen-support is also an issue... More opinions from Taiko players/mappers are needed as this change affects A LOT.

maybe this is temporary fix from me, but how put some sb to the taiko-bg instead?
so the bg can shifted back and scaled back to SB size,
i'll give the detail later, just the idea for now.
