On some maps, the epilepsy sign gets a little in the wayand maybe there can a setting in the Options to turn this off.

Turning off the epilepsy sign

afaiac I never found it annoying, the warning sign is behind the hitcircles so it does not really get in the way.
It's an essential OH&S warning, so I don't think it should be turned off.
I'm fine with current setups but I'll throw an alternative idea out here anyway:
The warning sign could be made to fade out before the 1st hit object appears. For maps with extremely short intro (or no intro at all), a 3s pause can be added to the beginning of the map as if someone's meddling with visual settings in mp. This "pause" should be omitted when the user hit the Retry button or it'll be extremely annoying.
Btw I thought this was a toggle before, or was it just my imagination?

Or . . .Disable epilepsy warning too , if the player disable the SB . But if not disable the SB , the epilepsy warning should be enabled too . I don't know . . .Just saying
That should be still shown even if the storyboard is disabled.XinCrin wrote:

People (who were affected by these flashing effects) might enable it without any warning from the beatmap.
If I remember correctly it only appears once, and after replaying it disappears, so you can just restart twice to avoid it.
Yes. It only appears once after the map was selected. Restarting the map doesn't show it.Marcin wrote:

Also, why not having it placed in the lower right corner like where the Skip button is? :3
personally. instead of removing it. i'd say spam the heck out of people about it, on every time you play that map.
(just a dumb suggestion). but there could be a "enable/disable" thing for it, so people have less to whine about. but then again, it's there for a reason and personally it should never be touched and/or removed.

Make it skinnable.

IMO, that's a better request than making another hassle of setting up a toggle.TheVileOne wrote:

Any person who doesn't want the sign to show up will just place a transparent PNG file on their skin ( aka "Epilepsy.png" ).
But please if you will do it say it so people with epilessy won't have headache becase of the trasparent warning....Nathanael wrote:

I will do that if I'm outside. Unfortunately, my desktop is always on my room and I don't want people to go in.. XDmarcostudios wrote:

Anyway, yeah. Any player should warn the person if they're affected by epilepsy since they removed it as a nuisance for them.
I doubt it will be skinnable. peppy is probably going to say deal with it and deny this.
there should be a toggle for it
i mean, if we're sure we're not epileptic, why should it be trying to warn us then?

Love it! If it was just skinnable, I would make my epilepsy warning like that, lol.TouchFluffyTail wrote:

Or then players might want to disable it due to the fact they want to get good scores on it, not focus on playing ''chilled'' and watching a video behind.TouchFluffyTail wrote:

i would rather we mandated using the epilepsy sign in situations only where photosensitive reactions are an actual, tangible risk rather than the beatmap having a tiny strobe or some form of movement in it
Why not make it fade with BG dim? If it's too dark to read the sign, it'll be too dark to suffer from epileptic reactions.
I'm against the turning off completely. That way it will lose its purpose. Fade with BG sounds good on the other hand. :3

Adding a lead-in time while the sign still persists would solve it completely since it only appears one time anyways.
Isn't this not a problem anymore?
