20:20 Electoz: hello
20:20 Electoz: from modding queue
20:20 Electoz: are you free now?
20:20 Wou: hello
20:20 Wou: yes
20:21 Electoz: have you ever into mapping before?
20:23 Wou: yes, but I remove
20:24 Electoz: well, I'd like to do some mods here
20:24 Electoz: would you mind?
20:25 Wou: i dont mind
20:26 Electoz: alright
20:26 Electoz: if there's anything you don't understand please tell me, so we'll get through this smooth and nicely
20:27 Electoz: first off, did you use "distance snap" when you're mapping?
20:29 Wou: occasionally
20:30 Electoz: well, in Normal you must use it on every objects
20:30 Electoz: otherwise it's unrankable
20:36 Electoz: please answer me lol
20:36 Electoz: just "ok" or something, so I know that you're reading
20:39 Wou: sorry, I don't really can speak English
20:39 Electoz: yeah, I knew that
20:39 Electoz: so I did said "let's go smooth and nicely"
20:39 Electoz: I don't mind if you're slow on response but just saying "ok" is fine
20:39 Wou: oke
20:39 Electoz: alright
20:40 Electoz: I will try to use easier words then
20:40 Electoz: I will try to break some grammars just in cast it'll be easier for you to understand
20:40 Wou: thanks lol
20:40 Electoz: *just in case
20:41 Wou: ok
20:41 Electoz: I will go to some simple thing first
20:41 Electoz: first , you should add some combo colours
20:42 Electoz: try to mix combo colours with the background picture
20:42 Electoz: so it will look good
20:43 Electoz: you understand, yes? lol
20:43 Wou: yes
20:44 Electoz: ok, secondly about "distance snap"
20:44 Electoz: in easy and normal, we have to use it on every notes
20:44 Electoz: not just occasionally
20:45 Electoz: because if we always use distance snap, new players will not get confused
20:46 Electoz: you can check distance snap\ with AImod
20:46 Electoz: when you check distance snap, you will know that evey notes are placed correctly or not
20:46 Electoz: any questions now? if no I'll keep going
20:48 Wou: hmm
20:48 Wou: in hard must be use distance snap to ?
20:49 Electoz: occasionnally
20:49 Wou: okay
20:49 Electoz: we use distance snap so it's easy to read
20:49 Electoz: but when the music has some climax
20:50 Electoz: we will not use it, we will move a bit far than before
20:50 Electoz: I will continue now, ok?
20:50 Wou: ok
20:51 Electoz: your background picture
20:51 Electoz: the size is 1280*720
20:52 Electoz: but, the size that it should be, is 1024*768 or 1366*768
20:52 Electoz: 1024*768 and 1366*768 are the best size for background picture
20:53 Wou: ohh, okay
20:53 Electoz: that's all improtant things
20:54 Electoz: from now on will be my advise on mapping
20:54 Electoz: I will do Normal only, alright?
20:54 Electoz: Because I'm not good with insane/extra
20:55 Wou: okay
20:55 Wou: fine
20:56 Electoz: If you fix distance snap on every notes, you have to move notes a lot, so my mod now will not go too deep on details
20:56 Electoz: I will give you some suggestions what you should do and should not do in Normal
20:57 Electoz: *suggestions = advice sry if I use to hard word
20:57 Electoz: *too hard
20:57 Electoz: 00:18:264 (6,7) - we don't do overlap like this
20:57 Electoz: because it doesn't look beautiful
20:58 Wou: :v
20:59 Electoz: 00:22:801 (6,2) - this one too
20:59 Electoz: if you see it overlap each other when you're playing
20:59 Electoz: that's the signal that you should fix it
21:00 Electoz: and you have a break here 00:42:850
21:00 Electoz: it's not good to have a break in this song
21:01 Electoz: because it's only 1 minute and 29 seconds
21:01 Electoz: if the song is short and has a break, it will be too boring
21:02 Electoz: alright, any questions?
21:02 Wou: ok I'm going to add something on this break
21:02 Electoz: also
21:02 Electoz: this spinner
21:02 Electoz: 00:49:289 (1) -
21:02 Electoz: it's too short for Normal
21:03 Electoz: because some players can't spin fast
21:03 Wou: hmm remove or extended?
21:03 Electoz: it's up to you
21:04 Electoz: you should map the break first
21:04 Wou: okay
21:04 Electoz: if you map the break you will know that you should remove or extend it
21:05 Wou: if there is a break in expert diffs
21:05 Wou: It is okay ?
21:05 Electoz: it's not
21:06 Electoz: because the song is short
21:06 Electoz: if the song is shorter than 1 min and 30 seconds << shouldn't have a break
21:06 Wou: okay
21:06 Electoz: I will summarize everything now
21:06 Electoz: the main point is
21:07 Electoz: use ds on every notes in normal < you need to work on this a lot
21:07 Electoz: change combo colours < make them fit with the background
21:07 Electoz: background picture size < make it 1024*768 or 1366*768
21:08 Electoz: don't do breaks with short songs < no matter what difficulty it is
21:08 Electoz: yeah, that's all important things I sum it up now
21:08 Electoz: any questions?
21:10 Wou: have problem for hit sound ?
21:10 Electoz: let me check them
21:10 Electoz: wait a bit
21:11 Electoz: I'm not good with hitsounds, but I thinks it's fine for now
21:12 Electoz: If someone advice you to fix something with hitsounds then you should fix it
21:12 Wou: ok
21:12 Electoz: tips on how to put hitsounds : listen to the music at 25% speed
21:12 Electoz: so you can hear the drums/bass and so on
21:13 Wou: ohh,, thanks
21:13 Wou: that's very helpful
21:13 Wou: thanks
21:14 Electoz: ok, I can mod your map later if you want
21:14 Electoz: just call me in game
21:14 Wou: ok
21:14 Electoz: any question you don't understand you can ask me later
21:14 Electoz: so, any questions?
21:14 Electoz: just to make sure
21:15 Wou: no any questions for now
21:15 Wou: thanks

21:15 Wou: okay
