Hmm.. this is more like a discussion about this map and not a mod. But this is fine like this!
Thank you for your mod!RVMathew wrote:
Hi. m4m request from modreqs.
Note that whatever I say is my own opinion so you do not have to follow everything I say.
ForREVer When I first tried it felt like a small stream practice map. I see that you are following the electric guitar, which is fine. Well little overspaced and slow streams are this maps core so no wonder
1) I was wondering for the Diff name is the REV actually supposed to be capitalized? It's for the bands deceased drummer "REV" and it's just a "quote" made by band forREVer
2) 00:19:475 (4) - I am curious as to why for 1/2 of the slider, you use white anchor points (creates the smooth curve), but the other half you use the red anchor points (creates the angled curves)? It looks a little bit weird to me, especially when I feel that you can do away with the red points and make it into a smooth curve. However, if it feels nice to you, then keep it. Because on that kind of parts where you just make long sliders you have to make your imagination flow and make those sliders unique, that's why simple curve is too lame for me. And as for the shape I just made it, liked it and kept it
3) 00:40:486 (6,7,8,9) - While I like the pattern here, as there is no build up or slow down in terms of the music, it makes sense to me to make them evenly spaced. Keep the pattern, but space it evenly. Note that when I was playing your current setup, I could hit it fine. I get your point but it's for the shape what is nice and as sounding is drum-snare-drum-snare I think that drum is lower than snare in sounds so jump is smaller
4) 00:54:886 (1) - Rhythmically this is completely fine, but I find it interesting that for the previous parts you use a 5 note stream, then suddenly this pops up and then after that you go back to 5 note streams again. I am curious to know why? Is it because you wanted to give players a break from 5 note streams?
I don't get the reason even myself maybe just variety or something? I don't know. But if this will have more complaints, I will change it
5) 01:36:874 (2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - I feel like you can make this a little bit more curvy. It looks a lot better and it is interesting. Then again if you think that the curve is fine ignore it. I made a bit bigger spacing and made it curve bit more
6) 01:38:046 (1,2) - If you wanted to align the slider end of 1 with note 2, you have to shift note 2 up to (452,148). This is a really small thing though. Nice notice, fixed
7) 02:06:874 (2,3,4,5,6,7,8) - Considering that you use the same distance for 2-7, the distance from 7-8 is not equal. If it was intentional I would be interested as into why you did that? If not then I would fix it.
- Applies to 03:26:092 (1,2,3,4,5,6,1) - Well I never use distance spacing specially when making streams, so it sometimes comes little messy and totally not intentional
8) 02:48:124 Here the guitar solo bit is really energetic, so I would use kiai time here to reflect that. Hmm.. yeah it fits well there
9) 03:22:577 (2) - I have to be that guy and say that the blanket is off. Imo it isn't but I modified it a little
10) 04:33:592 (3,4,5) - Why do these notes have different spacing? I could hit them fine but I am curious. Perhaps this was for aesthetic purposes? It is for variety and as 04:34:530 (1,1,2,3) - follows it, it fits nicely there imo. I like this
Cool difficulty Well thank you!
Final thoughts
The map is nice in terms of rhythm, but since you follow the guitar most of the time, the map at parts feels quite empty, not that there is anything wrong with that by the way. In terms of aesthetics, you can polish the map a bit more, which is why I pointed out things such as blankets are not perfect. Well nothing could be done about the guitar :/ maybe it is but I can't do anything about it, as for polishing I have already plenty of times checked it myself through so I wait for mods to point impurity out
Good luck. If you have queries, message me however you want.
