Cool idea, but I really dislike how each receptor has 2 possible directions that a note can come from. It makes reading things much more difficult than it needs to be.
I don't think there would be that much of a difference between "normal mania" and this if there wasn't two possible directions, it would just look differently but the gameplay would really feel the same way imo

Thanks for your kind words.
But yep i agree that it's way more difficult with 2 possible directions for each receptor and that this is actually kind of... inefficient.
But the base idea was to make it more complicated and more difficult to play than it usually is, so i wouldn't see that as a negative aspect. :)

you could als do | from bottom and top instead of /and \ c:

So osu!mania meets Project Diva?

I can't think of a good name combining the two, so let's call it "Baumstyle".
To he honest, i just couldn't find a good name myself either xD
But if some1 has a good idea, i'm open for any suggestions

This is amazing. Well done.

*Update*
I found a solution for the resolution problem. I added more skins to choose them based on your resolution.
(Btw i will only post updates for major things like this, i will also frequently add songs without any update notifications.)

*Next Update*
• I overworked the position rotation of the notes. They are less random now, the same colours will always change from top to bottom to top etc. (They will only keep on the same direction, if u have to press the same key again as the next note.)
• It's no longer necessary to change to the Beta or Cutting edge Version, fully invisible skins has been implemented to the stable version.
•Colour positions have been changed from [Yellow|Green|Pink|Red] to [Pink|Yellow|Green|Red].
•All skins and Beatmaps have been reworked and re-uploaded to match the changes.

You will have to redownload all skins and Beatmaps for the recent changes.

Any chance of seeing this for other key modes as well?

I love how the notes come from multiple directions, why are you toning it down, make it more hectic!!

I love how the notes come from multiple directions, wanted something like this for a long time. this is great gj /w/
first of all... thx :)

I guess it's possible to add that in the future, but i wanna get a decent amount of maps for 4k first. It takes some time to get into contact with all the mappers and ask for their permission to add their songs, therefore i'd be grateful for any help and volunteers. ^^

I think 7k would already be a little problematic, the reading would be really hard for 14 directions and it will consume a larger amount of space, so u have less time to react to the notes from the left/right side but it's not out of the question.

cool! :3

Well, you could also say that normal 7k would be a little problematic because it's harder to read 7 columns than 4 hue

Well that is true, although i think it will be really crazy in this gameplay style,
But well maybe it's actually less crazy than i think right now. :D

There's always some people to play crazy stuff you know :3

mania players are crazy, don't underestimate their abilities.

I made a 4K chart in 15 minutes, can you convert this to osu!diva please Baum? http://puu.sh/gtPiR/7696c2b80c.osz

Ahh there is arleady a mode like this, and it's not just close it's almost exactly the same xD
Nice thanks for finding this DJPop, does any1 know on which game it was made?
I'm not quite sure if this was some kind of mod like i did, or a whole game based on this system.
I'd like to mention this in the main post, if i can find out more about that vid.

I kinda thought that i had already seen something like this a about a year ago, but i just couldn't find it the whole time... all i could remember was that there was a game somewhere, that also has notes from several directions, but i didn't think it was the same what i did xD

It really seems to be kind of similiar, after all this is the 4th time i hear that now ^^
Bobbias
A bit of googling led me here: http://fevermix.voomga.com/. Judging by the video, the game seems to have multiple game modes, with one of them being pretty much the same as what you've made here.

The text in DJPop's video showed some of the UI in thai, so I'd assume that there are probably multiple server for this game.

Thanks alot Bobbias.
It seems that this mode is called Lovey Journey, even though the description in DJPop's vid said Lovely Bubble.
Then i'll maybe name this in mania... omj for osu mania journey, although i'm not quite sure about it yet :D

Very inventive I, should say. I am amazed someone came with away to have other modes in osu by using existing modes. Now if only C!B would allow to move up and down, we can finally have a somewhat working Touhou mode.

Also how did you manage to remove the hidden mods?

Yep it would be pretty cool if we had an "up and down" movement to create the touhou mode :)

I added empty image files into the skin and used them as the images for HD/FL/FI/Random/coop, therefore these mods are invisible (and u can't even click them).
The reason was that these modes don't work correctly on this gameplay style, so i removed them

although it may not be that far in yet, peppy has already been designing a tohosu game mode
