Will these Dans be better than the others?
We're definitely trying! Our goal is to bring you more difficulties and better-balanced Dans. With your feedback and support, we believe these Dans can be just as loved as the rest!

Are you trying to replace the other Dans?
Not at all. This is the DAN RIP project — a fresh take, not a replacement. We fully respect and admire iconic series like Shoegazer and DDMythical. We're just aiming to create something new and awesome for everyone to enjoy.

Can we get the assets used for DAN RIP?
Yes! Once everything is ready and polished, we’ll release a ZIP file with all the assets so you can enjoy or remix them as you like.

Our discord server: https://discord.gg/yphpvcVNWW

4K Dan ~ RIP TEAM ~ Project
(forgive my aesthetic dumb tildes lol)

This is a community-driven project that me and our team have been working on — because we honestly love you all and want to bring something fun and fresh to the osu!mania 4K scene 💖

  1. Dan RIP Team is essentially a remake of all the classic 4K Dans, aiming to fix long-standing issues (like the infamous 8th and 9th Dan problem) and improve map selection overall.
  2. We also offer more difficulty spreads, created by our community to give you variety and a better experience across skill levels!
⚠️ THESE ARE NOT INTENDED TO REPLACE THE ORIGINAL 4K DANS!
They follow a similar difficulty scale, but not a 1:1 match. For example:

Rip Team "IX" is much easier than the official 9th Dan — and that’s intentional!
"IX" is not a replacement, but rather a counterpart.

You can check the comparisons and equivalences in our official spreadsheet 📊
So please, don’t go around claiming you’re "10th Dan" when you actually passed Rip Team "XX" — they’re different systems!

✨ We also have a Dan Top leaderboard that shows all tiers and top players!
Check out all our work and progress in the Discord server — and yes, we’re super open to your feedback, ideas, and opinions!! 💡

Well this definitely doesn't fail in the spread department god damn
different passes is a bit interesting to develop as well.

Interested to see where this ends up.

Every dan played with Harder MODS are valid, u can use HR, SD, PF, DT, NC, FI, HD, FL & Mirror so if u clear a dan with harder mod ur play gonna be pinned in the hall of fame.

8th & 9th shoegazer dan are pretty unbalanced, one is more easier than other

If u have another question u can say it! ^^

Dans are a heated topic among the rhythm game community, having one course be the standard for a certain "level". They have historically been hard to nail, and the current ones work for the harder levels of play. If your goal is a straightforward progression for lower levels, I believe you would be much better off creating tables (refer to BMS tables) of benchmark songs that represent a given difficulty. The benefits of this would be an extra layer of quality control and a scope for new players who could be overwhelmed by the sea of ranked maps. It could also eliminate the flaws of the star rating system, which is rather problematic in determining the difficulty of charts. This would require a large team of the most experienced mappers and players, but the payoff would ultimately be better than a dan system for players to determine their skill level.

That's exactly why I follow Etterna and StepMania — their rating systems are much more accurate when it comes to picking maps. Thanks to that, I can balance the lower-level Dans more effectively without ruining all the work I've been putting in. My goal with this project is simply to create something fun, where players can enjoy themselves and see how far they can go.

We're doing our best to make this project a reality! If you have any other questions or feedback, feel free to share it with us. Thank you so much for your comment! <3
