2014-07-16 16:10 apaffy: hi! are you busy?
2014-07-16 16:12 Giralda: Hi! Not right now haha
2014-07-16 16:12 apaffy: rip
2014-07-16 16:14 Giralda: Wait I mean that by I'm not busy right now LOL
2014-07-16 16:14 apaffy: oh wow
2014-07-16 16:14 apaffy: my english skills are so bad
2014-07-16 16:14 apaffy: can't even read welp
2014-07-16 16:14 apaffy: ok so
2014-07-16 16:15 apaffy: ACTION is editing [http://osu.ppy.sh/b/434870 Yousei Teikoku - Wahrheit [Revelation]]
2014-07-16 16:15 apaffy: first off, this was really fun to play
2014-07-16 16:15 apaffy: i'm looking forward to fc'ing this when its ranked
2014-07-16 16:16 Giralda: oops this kind of happened
http://puu.sh/aeo0F/b2534fde77.png2014-07-16 16:16 apaffy: it's okay!
2014-07-16 16:17 Giralda: But yeah continue~ I only got the part where you said that it was fun to play
2014-07-16 16:17 Giralda: LOL
2014-07-16 16:17 apaffy: all i said was
http://puu.sh/aeo66.jpg ww
2014-07-16 16:17 Giralda: oh www
2014-07-16 16:18 apaffy: 00:42:796 (3) - this would look ~prettier~ if you curved it around the head of 4 i guess
https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/18253522014-07-16 16:18 apaffy: would probably have to edit 00:42:368 (2) - as well though for consistency
2014-07-16 16:18 Giralda: sure
2014-07-16 16:18 Giralda: Yeah I'll do that
2014-07-16 16:20 apaffy: personally, i'm not a fan of 01:03:461 (4) - or 01:06:128 (5) -
2014-07-16 16:20 apaffy: this section in general feels nice because of constant movement
2014-07-16 16:21 apaffy: and this sort of breaks up the feel of it with long repeats idk
2014-07-16 16:21 apaffy: plus it's not really consistent with00:58:128 (5,6,7) -
2014-07-16 16:21 Giralda: Hmm good point
2014-07-16 16:21 Giralda: I think
2014-07-16 16:22 Giralda: I had the 1/1 at 01:03:461 (4) because I didn't want a repeat to end on a large white tick
2014-07-16 16:22 Giralda: so out of laziness
2014-07-16 16:22 Giralda: I kind of, yeah
2014-07-16 16:23 apaffy: 01:10:795 (2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10) -
2014-07-16 16:23 apaffy: stop me if i'm going too fast btw
2014-07-16 16:23 apaffy: you've got a lot of space to work with here
2014-07-16 16:24 apaffy: if you want to do these sort of overlap stuff that's fine!
2014-07-16 16:24 apaffy: but i think i would space it out a little bit more
2014-07-16 16:24 Giralda: 01:10:795 (2,4,5,7,8,9,10) - Double triangle LOL
2014-07-16 16:24 apaffy: ye
2014-07-16 16:24 Giralda: But I could probably space it out a little more you're right
2014-07-16 16:25 apaffy: 01:19:461 (4,5) - this i don't like at all
2014-07-16 16:25 apaffy: it looks bad and plays kinda bad
2014-07-16 16:25 apaffy: the blanket feels kinda forced
2014-07-16 16:26 apaffy: and the overlap on top of it feels weird to read
2014-07-16 16:26 apaffy: well rather
2014-07-16 16:26 apaffy: yeah, i think i stated that how i wanted to
2014-07-16 16:27 apaffy: talk to me long enough and you'll find that my grasp of the enlgish language is not great
2014-07-16 16:27 apaffy: enlgish
2014-07-16 16:27 Giralda: english
2014-07-16 16:27 Giralda: engrish
2014-07-16 16:27 Giralda: It's okay LOL
2014-07-16 16:27 apaffy: if you must keep the blanket, i'd at least do something like this
https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/18253812014-07-16 16:28 apaffy: but idk
2014-07-16 16:28 apaffy: up to you of course ww
2014-07-16 16:28 Giralda: hmm
2014-07-16 16:28 Giralda: what about a repeat on 3?
2014-07-16 16:28 Giralda: and then ctrl g 5
2014-07-16 16:28 apaffy: hmm, i think that would work!
2014-07-16 16:29 apaffy: i would move five down some too though
2014-07-16 16:29 Giralda: Awesome~
2014-07-16 16:29 Giralda: sure
2014-07-16 16:29 apaffy: still keep the blanket, but that way you don't lose some of the jump in there
2014-07-16 16:29 Giralda: yeah I agree
2014-07-16 16:30 apaffy: 01:24:795 (4,5) - i have a similar problem with this one too
2014-07-16 16:30 apaffy: it's just that it's an overlap + anti-jump to 5
2014-07-16 16:30 apaffy: i don't think it flows well, the cursor movement there feels awkward
2014-07-16 16:32 apaffy: you could maybe stack 4 on top of 5 and have a nice little pause in the cursor movement there for a second, though it would be a bit larger jump
2014-07-16 16:33 Giralda: I used a similar solution as before and then rearranged the sliders a bit
2014-07-16 16:33 apaffy: oky
2014-07-16 16:34 Giralda:
http://puu.sh/aepzI/4b2998a0f6.jpg2014-07-16 16:34 apaffy: ooooo, nice
2014-07-16 16:34 Giralda: and then something like
https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/1825397 after
2014-07-16 16:34 apaffy: ooo
2014-07-16 16:35 Giralda: which would still flow into 01:26:961 (2,3) - perfectly finee
2014-07-16 16:35 apaffy: 01:29:795 (3,5) -
https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/18253982014-07-16 16:35 apaffy: ;;
2014-07-16 16:36 Giralda: The overlap right LOL
2014-07-16 16:36 apaffy: "y-you know i d-don't like it when you touch me like that 5... aaaaahhahaahhaa!"
2014-07-16 16:37 Giralda: HAHAHA
2014-07-16 16:37 apaffy: this could be kinda neat stacking idk, you could stack 01:30:128 (5) - on the top of 01:31:128 (4) - and then rotate it 45 degrees
2014-07-16 16:38 apaffy: and you'd still have a blanket
2014-07-16 16:38 apaffy: but it wouldn't touch anymore
2014-07-16 16:38 Giralda:
https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/1825409 ~
2014-07-16 16:38 apaffy: or that too works!
2014-07-16 16:39 Giralda: 5 is giving 3 her personal space~
2014-07-16 16:39 apaffy: are you really using grid level 1 lol
2014-07-16 16:39 Giralda: yeah
2014-07-16 16:39 apaffy: interesting
2014-07-16 16:40 apaffy: im not sure i've ever seen anyone use it w
2014-07-16 16:40 apaffy: 01:37:795 (3) - like
2014-07-16 16:40 apaffy: what is this suppose to be doing
2014-07-16 16:40 apaffy: blanketing 01:37:461 (2) - and 01:38:295 (4) - ????
2014-07-16 16:41 Giralda: err I think so
2014-07-16 16:41 Giralda: LOL
2014-07-16 16:41 apaffy: oh
2014-07-16 16:41 apaffy: well in that case it kinda fails sorry
2014-07-16 16:42 apaffy: i had another thing i forgot to mention earliar
2014-07-16 16:42 apaffy: err, question
2014-07-16 16:43 apaffy: 01:09:128 (7) -
2014-07-16 16:43 apaffy: 01:10:461 (1) -
2014-07-16 16:43 apaffy: what are these claps
2014-07-16 16:43 apaffy: clapped to?
2014-07-16 16:44 Giralda: Uh
2014-07-16 16:45 Giralda: Oh idk why I just thought I needed them there since I thought I heard something that needed a clap but I guess not LOL
2014-07-16 16:45 apaffy: 01:11:795 (8) - i was kinda expecting one here, because i thought it was going to be at the start of every measure sort of thing
2014-07-16 16:45 apaffy: o
2014-07-16 16:45 Giralda: Like if you hear the start of every measure the vocal seems to be stronger
2014-07-16 16:45 Giralda: for that part
2014-07-16 16:46 apaffy: yeah, i see
2014-07-16 16:46 Giralda: yeah
2014-07-16 16:46 apaffy: okay, fair enough
2014-07-16 16:46 Giralda: but I guess having one at 01:11:795 (8) - would be fine too
2014-07-16 16:47 apaffy: 01:45:628 (2) - 01:46:461 (5) - stack? idk??
2014-07-16 16:47 apaffy: 01:45:628 (2) - 01:46:461 (5) - stack? idk??
2014-07-16 16:47 apaffy: oops
2014-07-16 16:48 apaffy: i mean feel free btw to reject anything i say
2014-07-16 16:48 apaffy: if you don't like it
2014-07-16 16:48 Giralda: Uh I knew this was gonna come up at some point but it kind of screws up the symmetry at 01:45:795 (3,4) - by -trying- to be at the center of 01:46:461 (5) -
2014-07-16 16:48 Giralda: Oh I know
2014-07-16 16:48 apaffy: that's fair enough
2014-07-16 16:49 Giralda: I'm kind of a open minded mapper so I occasionally take more than I reject
2014-07-16 16:49 apaffy: but it looks like 4 and 3 are exactly centered
2014-07-16 16:49 apaffy: and 5 is not
2014-07-16 16:50 Giralda: Yeah I kind of don't know where the center is
2014-07-16 16:50 Giralda: x-x
2014-07-16 16:50 apaffy: so i think 5 still needs to be adjusted in that case if that's what you're trying to do
2014-07-16 16:50 apaffy: try x:255 y:150
2014-07-16 16:51 Giralda: okay~
2014-07-16 16:52 apaffy: 02:31:128 (3,5) - w
2014-07-16 16:52 Giralda: asdf ok
2014-07-16 16:52 apaffy: just stack 3 on the end of 5
2014-07-16 16:52 apaffy: simple fix!
2014-07-16 16:53 apaffy: there's not like anything wrong with the rhythm or jumps etc, i feel dumb for doing a nazi mod orz
2014-07-16 16:54 apaffy: 02:49:795 (3) - i would just make this a curved slider like 4
2014-07-16 16:54 apaffy: because it looks odd
2014-07-16 16:54 Giralda: It's okay I feel the same sometimes but I don't hate nazi mods xD
2014-07-16 16:55 apaffy: 03:00:628 (4) -
https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/1825456 ?
2014-07-16 16:56 Giralda: uh I tried
https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/18254592014-07-16 16:56 apaffy: 03:15:795 (1,2,3,4,5,6) - i feel like these would be better emphasized by 1/2 sliders
2014-07-16 16:56 apaffy: like 03:17:128 (7,8,9,10) -
2014-07-16 16:57 apaffy: oh wait
2014-07-16 16:57 apaffy: no never
2014-07-16 16:57 apaffy: mind
2014-07-16 16:57 apaffy: i see
2014-07-16 16:57 Giralda: xD
2014-07-16 16:57 apaffy: that drum is kinda subtle though
2014-07-16 16:57 apaffy: but fair enough
2014-07-16 16:57 Giralda: mhm~
2014-07-16 16:58 apaffy: 03:33:795 (1) - i don't think this needs to be NC'd
2014-07-16 16:58 Giralda: haha okay
2014-07-16 16:58 apaffy: 03:46:795 (2) - this slider doesn't make sense
2014-07-16 16:59 apaffy: up until this point you were mapping the xylophone/bells thing in the background
2014-07-16 16:59 apaffy: 03:42:295 (2,3,4) - like here
2014-07-16 16:59 apaffy: plus the vocals there
2014-07-16 16:59 apaffy: that just doesn't make sense rhythmically
2014-07-16 16:59 apaffy: 03:47:128 - 03:47:295 - there should be stuff on these
2014-07-16 17:00 Giralda: I think the vocals distracted me so I just naturally mapped to it
2014-07-16 17:00 apaffy: 03:50:794 (1) - similarly, this would be better as a 1/1 repeat
2014-07-16 17:01 apaffy: 03:51:128 - because there's a note here
2014-07-16 17:01 apaffy: it's a bit subtle but it's definitely there
2014-07-16 17:02 Giralda: I thought the slider tick would be enough to match it
2014-07-16 17:02 Giralda: but I guess not o-o
2014-07-16 17:02 Giralda: I'm not really sure on how to effectively use sliderticks
2014-07-16 17:02 apaffy: i think it would be much better as a repeat
2014-07-16 17:02 apaffy: + whistles
2014-07-16 17:02 Giralda: yeah suree
2014-07-16 17:04 apaffy: 04:11:793 (2,3) - ew
2014-07-16 17:04 Giralda: ew
2014-07-16 17:04 Giralda: wait what
2014-07-16 17:04 apaffy: it looks ehhhh
2014-07-16 17:05 apaffy: bear in mind i map with like, zero overlaps like this so i guess i might be projecting a bit too much
2014-07-16 17:05 apaffy: eh, up to you ww
2014-07-16 17:05 Giralda: ww
2014-07-16 17:05 apaffy: i don't think i have anything else in this diff
2014-07-16 17:05 apaffy: it's pretty amazing overall
2014-07-16 17:06 apaffy: i like it more than the wahrheit ranked now
2014-07-16 17:06 apaffy: a lot more even
2014-07-16 17:06 apaffy: okay onto other diffs
2014-07-16 17:06 Giralda: okay~
2014-07-16 17:06 Giralda: Normal is still WIP so ignore that
2014-07-16 17:06 apaffy: i know you told me to NOT look at the normal, and for the most part i didn't
2014-07-16 17:06 apaffy: but i just wanted to mention one thing
2014-07-16 17:08 apaffy: ok nvm i'll just wait until you're finished with it and then short recheck i guess
2014-07-16 17:08 Giralda: haha alright
2014-07-16 17:09 apaffy: ok this hard mod is probably going to be quite short because, i honestly have no clue what to say about it
2014-07-16 17:09 apaffy: it's good
2014-07-16 17:09 Giralda: It's uh
2014-07-16 17:09 Giralda: the first Hard I made
2014-07-16 17:09 apaffy: wtf
2014-07-16 17:09 Giralda: yeah
2014-07-16 17:10 apaffy: 00:45:796 (3) - maybe stack this on 1 or something, it's pretty clean but i was under the impression most hard modders/BATs hate overlaps idk
2014-07-16 17:10 apaffy: hey i noticed something you did here that you didn't do in the insane
2014-07-16 17:10 apaffy: 00:51:475 (1) -
2014-07-16 17:10 apaffy: your spinner
2014-07-16 17:10 apaffy: starts on the blue tick here, in the insane it starts on the red tick
2014-07-16 17:10 apaffy: please be consistent
2014-07-16 17:10 apaffy: on that
2014-07-16 17:10 Giralda: UHHH
2014-07-16 17:11 Giralda: I didn't even notice LOL
2014-07-16 17:11 Giralda: thank youu
2014-07-16 17:11 apaffy: either way works fine, it's just someone will mention it later
2014-07-16 17:11 Giralda: mhm
2014-07-16 17:12 apaffy: one thing i noticed
2014-07-16 17:12 apaffy: almost complete use of distance snap
2014-07-16 17:12 apaffy: which is fine of course
2014-07-16 17:12 apaffy: but don't be afraid to use jumps sparringly too
2014-07-16 17:13 Giralda: Most of the jumps are present during the chorus
2014-07-16 17:13 Giralda: But since
2014-07-16 17:13 Giralda: the Insane is kind of jump heavy
2014-07-16 17:13 Giralda: I wanted to make the Hard easier
2014-07-16 17:13 apaffy: that's totally fair
2014-07-16 17:13 apaffy: i didn't mean to imply that it was bad, if it sounded like that
2014-07-16 17:14 Giralda: Oh no I wanted to let you know my thoughts on it haha
2014-07-16 17:14 apaffy: oh i see what you mean now
2014-07-16 17:14 apaffy: 01:51:795 (1,2) -
2014-07-16 17:14 apaffy: like there we go
2014-07-16 17:14 Giralda: yep
2014-07-16 17:15 apaffy: you're not going to use any kiai time?
2014-07-16 17:15 apaffy: it's not required that you do, but it would fit with the choruses
2014-07-16 17:15 Giralda: Still debating
2014-07-16 17:15 Giralda: I have a love-hate relationship with kiai time
2014-07-16 17:15 apaffy: i have like all the visual effects off almost, so i don't even notice it usually ww
2014-07-16 17:16 apaffy: i guess that's why i'm kinda kiai-heavy in my maps, i just throw it because it doesn't affect me ww
2014-07-16 17:16 Giralda: ww
2014-07-16 17:16 apaffy: maybe i should stop that
2014-07-16 17:16 Giralda: LOOL
2014-07-16 17:16 Giralda: When I started playing
2014-07-16 17:16 Giralda: I found kiai time extremely annoying
2014-07-16 17:16 Giralda: when I started mapping
2014-07-16 17:16 Giralda: I loved kiai time to death so like
2014-07-16 17:17 Giralda: I know that the majority of players who play crazy maps
2014-07-16 17:17 Giralda: dont really care
2014-07-16 17:17 apaffy: i always used a custom skin, and had a really bad computer; so it was just meh
2014-07-16 17:17 Giralda: but some people actually just flat out hate it so I'm kind of in between
2014-07-16 17:17 Giralda: ahh
2014-07-16 17:17 apaffy: 01:55:461 (4) - i think you could have some occasional five stacks
2014-07-16 17:18 apaffy: as it is now, your diff spread is a bit uneven
2014-07-16 17:18 apaffy: this hard could be more difficult
2014-07-16 17:18 apaffy: it's a bit on the too easy side
2014-07-16 17:18 Giralda: Even if it was gonna be an NHI spread?
2014-07-16 17:18 apaffy: 3 to 5 stars is a pretty big jump in difficulty
2014-07-16 17:18 apaffy: yeah
2014-07-16 17:18 Giralda: hmm okay
2014-07-16 17:18 apaffy: i think this would be a better spread fit if it was closer to 3.2-3.3 stars
2014-07-16 17:19 apaffy: and probably a few more triplets or stacks like that would push it up to that
2014-07-16 17:20 Giralda: okay sure!
2014-07-16 17:20 apaffy: do hards usually use hp 6?
2014-07-16 17:20 apaffy: idk what settings are good rip
2014-07-16 17:20 Giralda: yeah
2014-07-16 17:21 apaffy: do you really like yousei teikoku
2014-07-16 17:21 apaffy: i mean
2014-07-16 17:22 apaffy: just curious!
2014-07-16 17:22 Giralda: Well not really like, just kind of a fan
2014-07-16 17:22 Giralda: xD
2014-07-16 17:22 apaffy: ah
2014-07-16 17:22 apaffy: 03:22:961 (2,3) - i really didn't like this pause
2014-07-16 17:22 apaffy: +stack
2014-07-16 17:22 apaffy: ugh chinese ime please
2014-07-16 17:22 apaffy: stop shifting my fonts like that
2014-07-16 17:22 Giralda: xD
2014-07-16 17:23 apaffy: but the way you did that, it's unlike any other 1/1 gap in the map
2014-07-16 17:23 apaffy: so it just feels awkward
2014-07-16 17:24 apaffy: 03:22:961 (2) - really i think this should be a repeat slider like 03:22:461 (1) - anyways
2014-07-16 17:24 apaffy: it would match the rhythm better
2014-07-16 17:24 apaffy: because the violin there is still 1/2
2014-07-16 17:25 Giralda: okayy
2014-07-16 17:25 apaffy: 03:42:461 (5,6,1) - this was also kinda weird, because it skips the vocal cue at 03:42:295 -
2014-07-16 17:26 apaffy: 03:49:461 (3,4,1,2,3) - this is sort of the same rhythm here, yet you mapped it there and not the one spot before
2014-07-16 17:27 Giralda: hmm okay gonna change it ~
2014-07-16 17:27 apaffy: oky
2014-07-16 17:28 apaffy: 04:06:460 (2,3,4,1,2,3) - this gets a bit cluttered visually
2014-07-16 17:28 apaffy: this is more of an ar8 pattern
2014-07-16 17:29 apaffy: i guess it's not so bad though
2014-07-16 17:29 apaffy: other than that
2014-07-16 17:29 apaffy: i think that's it
2014-07-16 17:29 apaffy: gj
2014-07-16 17:30 Giralda: okayy thank you apaffy <3
2014-07-16 17:30 apaffy: np~
2014-07-16 17:30 apaffy: glad i could help!
2014-07-16 17:30 apaffy: if i did anyways www
