Ohhh, welcome to my osu!development threat


You want to hear your osu! music without having to start the game? You are searching for a lightweight program to listen to music?

If so, the osu!player plus is for you. The osu!player plus is the "sequel" of the osu!player. It's a newer version and a complete rework of the osu!player. osu!player plus features the same feature of the old osu!player:

Import your song, favorise songs to find them faster in your favorites or create custom playlists, export your songs to a given directory, a customizer to repaint mostly everything (was removed from the old osu!player), a new feature;
just select your mp3 files and import them aditionaly in a seperat directory, so the osu!player plus can play them for you, Discord Rich Presence, a feature where you can play synced with other people via Discord in the osu!player plus and of course a auto updater.

Sounds pretty good, where can I download this?
- You can download it via this link and extract in a cozy play, where you want it.
- You can also find the download link on the osu!player plus info side

What do I need to run osu!player plus?
- You need at least the .Net Framework 4.6.1 installed

"How many people are currently involved in developing this?"
- Currently my friend Cesan and me

"Can I post feedback or suggestions here?"
- What are you waiting for, we appreciate any kind of feedback!

"Sourcecode, Github, etc.?"
- In the future, whenever I am ready to release the sourcecode to the public.

You have some pictures of the osu!player plus?
- Indeed I have some screenshots. You can find them on the all here on the info page

Patchnotes?
- You can find the patchnotes into the client. You can't miss it there is a big section "osu!player news" on the main view when you start the player

If you want to, you can also join our discord server! There you can ask for help or leave feedback and we will try to reply as soon as we can.

Thank you for reading and if you decided to use it. Thank you very much.

Dev update:
I'm currently working on a miniplayer. The old window will be still there. But you can toggle the miniplayer and the mainwindow. So you can choose what you want.
I try to release a version with the miniplayer. But first i need to fix some bugs that flew in after recoding many things and moving the player in a seperate class. (The clean up and fixing takes most of my time)

Screentshot of the miniplayer:

Well some time past since the last post, so here is an update for you people out there.
The update contains the new version of the osu!player.
The Update comes with the osu!miniplayer. Because i like the the miniplayer more its now the default player for this project, that means the old GUI is not anymore there.
Sadly the project is not anymore a single file, because i used some API's and Libaries.

Liking it so far,
I was just wondering if you had a GitHub for this project, just interested.

Bugs or Features to possibly implement (these are super picky and most of which you probably know of):
- Favourites appear to consistently crash the program when double clicking the song.
- Search is case sensitive. (which is a slight pain)
- The search could be potentially formatted better if the path to the file is known.
- If it is playing on shuffle and you go back a song it will not be the same song that was previously playing on shuffle which is kinda expected on most music players.
- When dragging the program it is extremely large in comparison to the actual size of the program.
- Possibly make the big osu!player logo draggable as there is not much space to drag the program around right now and my first instinct was to drag that part.
- Save the previous song played when the program is closed and resume when opening again.
- Save the volume setting when the program is closed.
- Save the favorites when closing the program.

From this post, I sound pretty pessimistic but overall the program is quick to parse through all the songs in the osu songs folder, and it is also small and therefore extremely convenient to have open in comparison to osu

edit: Grammar

- Favourites appear to consistently crash the program when double clicking the song.Yeah i know. But should be fixed in the future version. (I hope)
- Search is case sensitive. (which is a slight pain) Yup. I know i hate it too. But i will look into it
- The search could be potentially formatted better if the path to the file is known.
- If it is playing on shuffle and you go back a song it will not be the same song that was previously playing on shuffle which is kinda expected on most music players. Sure. Comes in the new Version
- When dragging the program it is extremely large in comparison to the actual size of the program.That is because of the window boundingbox the space down there is the space where the search is when it is visible.
- Possibly make the big osu!player logo draggable as there is not much space to drag the program around right now and my first instinct was to drag that part. Sure. Comes in the new Version
- Save the previous song played when the program is closed and resume when opening again. It was available in older version, but i can make a option in the settings again
- Save the volume setting when the program is closed. It does. But if it crashes it won't save obviously.
- Save the favorites when closing the program. Comes back in the new version when i upload it

From this post, I sound pretty pessimistic but overall the program is quick to parse through all the songs in the osu songs folder, and it is also small and therefore extremely convenient to have open in comparison to osu Well that was my main point. I just want to use my RAM or CPU for different stuff and so thats why i coded it.

osu!player 1.8.p is out now it comes with some bugfixes and some new features. Also i released the osu!player installer.
A small installer that installs the osu!player for you. Also you can use it to download all additional languages that are available.
If you have feedback for me, i would realy appreciate it.

IMPORTANT
If you have trouble updating from 1.7.p to 1.8.p via the Build in Updater, then download the update via the osu!player installer and choose as install dir your current osu!player path. The build in updater had some bugs and crashed everytime while updating. A new version of the build in updater is included in 1.8.p

What i mean by "always on top" is OSU!Player always showing up above other windows. I mostly use it on my second monitor in the bottom right corner and it would be nice for it to not be covered up when i click on discord (in case i wanna add a song to favorites or something).

Loving the program and glad you've been updating it. I see to many programs fall by the wayside an/or having their thread being buried in the Dev forum.

Sure i can make an option in the settings for it. It will come in the next version. (I didnt saw the page 2 in this thread, otherwise it would be now in 2.1.p) Also thank you for your feedback and glad you like it c:

Sure just upload a textfile or post it here in a spoilerbox (I prefer the textfile). If i got it, I will notify you if the new language file is in the complete language pack.
Glad you like the player.
