I've noticed in Catch the Beat in can be sometimes hard to tell when a spinner starts and ends. If you put a few red lines where it started and ended, it would be easier to tell. The reason I bring this up is sometimes, you'll find a beat right after a spinner that looks like it's part of the spinner so you don't think you have to catch it and the combo breaks.

I agree that ctb spinners can be a bit ambiguous, but what do you mean by "red lines"?
maybe like something that tells you its the end of the spinner.Derekku wrote:

But you can tell when a spinner ends when the fruit on the plate like are gone (new combo i guess)
No, I think that would be tasteful. Something like a mild glow or a different border on the fruit itself would make more sense.
Support.
Will definitely consider this in a future ctb renewal

.support... then I wonder what will happen in Wizards in Winter [ impossible ] lol
Still open to suggestions for the effects. Right now it's a white, slightly faster animating version of hyperdash.
It won't be easy to see that if the beatmap has white-like-color background...
How about reversal of BG color?

and think about plan b :3
If I'm not right, ignore orz
Un-adding for the moment. peppy vetoed it.
This is already unrankable? And the same is true for hyperdash fruits and red/yellow/purple backdrops.Shino wrote:

it would be easier for CTB users

Maybe Just like hyperdash, make the screen darker during the spinner and then a glowing/ flashing/pulsingwhatever fruit to warn it?
Kinda similar to the previous white glow but with the adition of the darkened view :3

Make stars explode from next normal fruit

Hello Grabarz!
Also not supporting if you mean ability to catch all fruits in spinner

He means that an outline of some sort appear around a fruit that's not in a spinner so you won't break combo.Bass-chan wrote:

Well, the spinner of CTB appears to be impossible, which I think is wrong, but that's another point.
The light on the fruit is hard to see when you go too fast, it would be best to enclose the space spinner either darkened, lightened or placing limits it ends (and where to start is also helpful.)
You light up the fruit that is not in the spinner does not make much sense because you have to highlight the end because if they are near many fruits will not distinguish.
No, that's my opinion ~

how about creating a different fruit for the spinner....like a banana or something. could that work?
That's a good idea. Then we can use the logical name "BANANA TIME" for catch the beat instead of calling them spinners.deadbeat wrote:

I would start liking and playing CTB if this was implemented with BANANA TIME images and everything

[peppy] Add banana sprite.
:O

If mappers followed the ranking criteria then this wouldn't even be happening...
I can understand the problems this causes though, especially Nico Nico Douga - U.N. Owen Was Her? http://osu.ppy.sh/s/1785
@RandomJibberish - I usually call them as a "Fruit Frenzy" .. Sorta came up with a name for it and it stuck for me.

doesn't matter. it still helps being able to see clearly when a spinner starts and stops when playing ctbKitokofox wrote:

banana time!
No bananas on the test build yet 
[peppy] Catch the Beat spinners are now bananalicious.

i'm guessing it'll be something like fruit-banana.png

Are they skinnable? If so, which is the correct file name(s)?

Deadbeat for admin, the deaf can now differentiate the spin. 
Posting here for a CORRECTION
It's not fruit-banana.png, it's fruit-bananas.png. And likewise for the overlay.

Anyways, this is awesome. The bananas confuses me sometimes but this is great! (:
I get it all, a question, it is possible to change the player's preference banana is, edit it and make a new skin and have been made with other fruits? Sorry my bad English
you can skin any ctb fruit you want
so you could have fruit-apple and fruit-apple-overlay as a paino if you wanted. or maybe just a triangle
does that kinda help?
ctb skin names
apple/grapes/orange/pear are the normal fruit. bananas is the spinner fruit and drops is the droplets during sliders.

add bananas is a good idea, but I want to see bananas as a ordinary fruit not as a spinner-fruit only IMHO
You can skin a regular fruit into bananas just as easily as people that don't like the bananas can skin them away. You can find the images (fruit-bananas.png and its overlay) in the Skin tutorial thread (if they're not already in the template skin). Of course, if you want to keep all the regular fruit while doing that, you should probably support the feature request to allow for more fruit types in CtB.
