The idea is really simple. Oldschool is a gameplay mod that forces;

  1. Skin to old default skin from 2008 (unless the map is using the custom skin)
  2. Background dim to 0%
  3. Video and storyboard on
  4. Custom hitsounds on
  5. Combo bursts on
  6. Hit lightning on
  7. If still possible, combofire on
It could be a mod that has a score multiplier, since reading stuff is not really easy thing to do in this mod compared to the current 100% dim meta.

Here are some examples.

might be abused by those that delete beatmap skins/backgrounds/videos, so personally i think this should not be a ranked mod

So basically a mod that gives you a score multiplier for doing things that you can choose to use on their own individually? Umm, no

Keyword being could. Can be unranked too if you can't handle it.

osu lazer will have different elements so idk

the multiplier tho... no, skin and bg dim, even if most people find it hard to read, are still visual preference. shouldn't give any multiplier at all.

i can't really see it being a mod. People can just download an old school. Then just set everything to default and voila.

I don't think it should be a rankable mod, but I think it can be a cool addition. A lot of maps nowadays are almost impossible to read with this skin, which can be really fun when played with others @ multips.

But what if you want to switch between playing oldschool settings and your own settings?

Let's say you're scrolling through your beatmaps and see a map you'd like to play with oldschool but you'd have to open options and fiddle around a while before actually getting to play. However if there was a mod, you could toggle it on, start the map and there would be no time wasted.

how about setting profiles instead.
it will be more useful, and what you wanted can be set to certain profile too.
