Beautiful skin down to the circles. Same as Sasara skin that I can not do anything. Can not play with it. :)

Pass and Fail are nicely done. :)

Thank you for comments.

I made edges as thin as possible because this skin was aimed for the HD mode.
But if you feel too thin, please change the skin parts.

Please find skin parts in the "Snow Miku 2014 v3.00\parts\hitcircleoverlay."

Then we can find 3 sizes of hitcircle overlays (S, L, M).


I suggest you to use "with_outerring_L_15percent."
The skin looks like this.


Also we have the other choices for approach circles, follow points, and so on.

You have pointed out that
-the edges of circles are too thin
-approach circles are too large
but I thought I solved those problems by adding skin parts with different sizes.

Do you think this skin still have problems?
I'd like to improve this.

I'm sorry but I'm not sure what you are mentioning on.

I measured the size by GIMP since I don't have Photoshop.
These parts were made by Inkscape but the final size of edge depends on the output configuration.

Numbers--------------------
dotandbarS
3 px


dotandbarM
15 px

dotandbarL
21 px

Hitcircle overlays---------
with_outerring_S_15percent
4 px


with_outerring_M_15percent
9 px

with_outerring_L_30percent
21 px
------------------------------

The smallest edges have 3 px.
As I told you, the possible solution is to use attached parts "with_outerring_L_15percent."

Do you want to claim that the S size (dotandbarS and with_outerring_S_15percent) should make thicker?

Ah, GIMP sure is pain eh.
I see no issues here regarding to the thickness, but the circles are sharp. If possible, make the edges smooth. That is... if possible.

Thank you for the comment.

Most of the parts are direct "bitmap" output of Inkscape so that the edges should be sharp.
I'll try to make parts smooth by applying Gaussian blur using GIMP.

i like the approach of having the lines that go like a clock around so you can see stacked notes with a circle type of hitcircle good job
only thing i would complain about is that the miss sound is quite loud

Thank you for your opinion.

I agree that the combo break sound is loud compared to the other hit sounds.
The combo break sound should be modified.

Um... I was expecting something more... snowy? theres practically nothing on the skin alluding the snow, apart of the Miku pictures.

I'm sorry for that.
This skin is not "Snow skin," but "Snow Miku 2014 skin."

I put
-snow crystal hit lighting
-snow particles (star2)
- bell hit sounds so that players recall X'mas
-snow views in pause and fall picture
for alluding snow.

What else do you think is required?

Thank you for the comment.
I'm grad to hear that.


Update (v3.01)
-Catch the Beat (CtB) parts were newly added



-Gaussian blur was applied to hitcircles

Not so big difference can be seen in 1440x900 orz
It may be better to have @2x parts.


-combobreak.wav was attenuated (-4dB)
-Colors of Silver S and Silver SS were turned dark
-star2.png was painted blue


Future updates
I'm considering to add
-@2x parts
-Taiko mode parts.
