passing daiuchuu is cheating

Is LR2 groove gain/loss calculated differently than from IIDX?

>>15422932
It can be edited in the bms file, just like judge windows
That's why some songs are really hard to pass for no reason, and others will throw gauge at yo

Okay so I have the standard fp7 from the US storehouse, and when I go to the arcade the buttons are much more clicky and feel better to press.
Is that the switches or the springs or the same buttons or what
How can I make my controller like that for the least amount of money

>>15424578
Your FP7 probably has Dao buttons instead of Sanwas.

Pressing Sanwas feels like fingering a woman, while Daos feel like fingering a bellybutton.

>>15424660
I'm gay. Is that why I think the DAO buttons feel just fine.

Before you shell out for sanwas make sure you're using Omron switches.

why can't DAO stock the FPS in the US storehouse for the perpetually poor like me

>>15425658
Does the US storehouse send to other countries or US only?

I mean, it could be cheaper than ordering it from China.

Does anybody know about many kaiden are there in the US?

>>15426603
I don't know anything, but I'd guess something like 30~40.

hi-speed is cheating

>>15428830
Why are slow speeds so much harder than high speeds?

Not even talking about "So slow everything is literally cluttered together" speeds, but regular slow speeds,

>>15428848
It's just the opposite.
The less things on the screen, the less your brain has to consider. And the less your brain has to work, the easier it is for your muscle memory to take over and press the buttons.

ITG has CMOD
therefore
ITG > DDR

What's the time you had the most fun in rhythm games?
For me, it was my first clear of Max 300, and then again for my first AA of Max 300.

>>15429051
My first AAA in IIDX

>>15429067
What was it?

Smile of you

>>15429075
Elisha Hyper

Nothing too hard, but still a AAA

>>15428922
itg > ddr but cmod is literally cheating and if you use it you're shit

ddr charts feel like shit with their excessive crossovers and jumps and general lack of streams

>>15429051
around 2012 i'd go to the local arcade, meet up with some friends, and just spend hours taking turns playing itg2 custom songs. we'd all like motivate and encourage each other and i got better in the 1 year that it lasted than i'd ever been before (been playing music games since the first american psx release of ddr)

>>15429051
Maxing out the score counter on the final song in Ouendan 2 with hidden.

>>15429410
Crossovers and spins are literally the best part of ddr/itg as long as you don't cheese them
>>15429418
Man, I wish I could have something resembling this

>>15429643
well... you can't since arcades are now DEAD. or alive

>>15429643
well, crossovers are fun if it's done tastefully like Spin The Disc but having to step R D L (space) R D L at 200 bpm is awful

>>15429878
Quarter notes? I love that pattern. The way the foot glides over the center pad on the space feels and looks great. That's just what I think, though.

Spin the Disc is great. I mean more like the crossovers in PSM though.

what level would through the fire and flames be if it was in iidx

>>15430451
mendes

>>15430451
Black 12 Leggendaria.

Toughest shit.

>>15430451
Probably a hard 10.

It's really nothing compared to the black another charts and leggendaria charts.

Now, if the song had chord streams, instead of single note streams, and it went for the whole 7 minutes... then yeah it'd be what >>15430482 said.

>>15429067
My first AA in IIDX

>>15430451
if it were a straight port of the GH chart, it'd be a 9, maybe an 8.

if it were charted like any other iidx chart, it'd be >>15430460

Thank you. I thought sanwa buttons were default but they're actually quite a bit extra. Are they easy to swap out? I might just upgrade at a later time.

>>15432379
I've never worked with a DAO controller but I've swapped Sanwa knockoffs for the real thing in multiple fightsticks and it's quite simple. They've got two wire connections and they're designed to snap in to the holes on the controller. From what I hear, you can get the proper arcade buttons cheaper than DAO at other stores.

No matter how hard I try, I can't clear a 16 on DDR. I can read the charts, I know how to move my legs, but I can't step fast enough.

Would a hard dance pad help, or is it a waste of money? I'm using this foam mat right now.

anyone know if there is a way to unlock 5th KAC qualifier songs in INFINITAS if i missed the event?

will it be in Archive Layer like the rest of the missed monthly unlocks?

>>15433197
you're not gonna clear harder charts without a hard pad and for the really hard ones, some kind of bar assembly

>>15433197
A hard pad is necessary for even 10s
A bar is not
But there's nothing wrong with using a bar, as long as you keep it stylish

Hold start and press the Effect button. I think you can't do it while on beginner options, so if you're not playing with E-Amuse, make sure you've opened the proper options window.

If you have Sudden+ on, it'll keep your green number from the standard high speed settings, and adjust the white number.

Is Expand Judge in IIDX just so we can all feel a little like Dolce?

>>15434178
Some guy did the ITG thing with Maniax. Made a similar game (might be based on Stepmania? I have no clue about the engine honestly) that you put on a computer with a minimaid and it's constantly getting updating with new and recent Bemani songs.
Pretty sweet fan-made revival of a very dead game.

>>15436307
I think it's there just to learn charts, that way you pretty much can't lose, but you don't pass either.

>>15437736
Stepmania spread
Here are some good simfile packs
http://aceofhearts.weebly.com/others-simfiles.html
Get one of the cyberia style themes, unless you're fine with default
If you like that, try out LR2 on keyboard
And if you like that, get a DJDAO and join us in our waking nightmare

>>15437781
thank you, looks like I got it working, but I'm not entirely sure what you mean by "spread"

>>15437839
Rebind up, down, left and right to a s k and l, then play with your index fingers
No worries

>>15437781

Spread limits a player to just spread charts though. Heaven forbid a fast trill comes along on up-right or down-left. You're fucked.

What I do if it's not a goofy fucking spread chart is what I call the quad spread, it probably has an actual name though.

Basically wasd with left two fingers, and up, down left, right with my right two fingers. That way you can do any fast trill with both of your fastest fingers.

>>15437845
right, I rebound them already to xc and <>, thanks!

one more thing if I may - for some reason the theme you've recommended hasn't worked (I probably just downloaded an old version or something), but I don't really care about that as I like the default theme, but what bothers me is when I hit a flawless note, how the "flawless" text repeatedly quickly flashes, can I change that somehow manually like in osu! by deleting the hit graphics, or do I need to overwrite it by some other skin
>>15437863
I'll try your setting too then, thanks!

>>15437863
You can trill fine with index-middle finger, though. What are you talking about?
I've never noticed a difference between 'spread charts' and 'non spread charts', but then again I only ever play pad packs.
Staiain uses 4k spread

>>15437873
I've never tried, so I don't know. It's probably possible.

Any techniques or tips for getting better at DDR/ITG? Recently got a hard board and I feel so sluggish and slow. I also feel like my mind can process the arrows but my legs can't keep up.

Just practice?

>>15438163
I'd like to but I'm intimidated by the gloves everyone wears

Also no Aime.

>>15438451

I wear fingerless gloves for pop'n after I saw some fucks doing it on Youtube.

Didn't really know why until I started playing the harder levels. Slapping the fuck out of those buttons thousands of times an hour hurts your hands a lot.

>>15438445
basically practice, yeah. if you're playing really fast stuff you likely need a bar assembly so you can take the burden of standing off your legs and simply work on hitting the arrows. otherwise just try to change the way you stand so you can move your feet around with minimal effort, usually some kind of like hunch is what i end up doing when playing harder stuff no-bar.

alright 6th dan in copula is definitely harder than in pendual fuck

>>15438445

Get a rival. Having someone be about your skill level and becoming slightly better than you is about the greatest motivator you can get.

I started with Ultramix in '03 and until '08 when I got my rival I was basically only ably to do 9s. Passing So Deep was my magnum opus. But a year later or so, I was doing fucking Eggman's Quasar on a pad.

What the fuck, i've been playing SDVX for a week and i already cleared two 15.

>>15438708
thank you

>>15438712
it's a shit game

just play a better one in a similar style like crossbeats or technika

>>15438712

It's not about being "weeb enough" the game is fucking shit dude.
I'd talk about crossbeats tho

>>15438715
i think ur a shit game
haha

>>15438712
We don't talk about because it's not weeb enough, we don't talk about it because it's shit. It's not even a rhythm game. There's no focus on rhythm at all.

It's also designed to specifically give everyone who plays it carpal tunnel. Not even IIDX does that unless you're wrist scratching, and wrist scratching is cheating anyway.

>>15438715
>>15438717
Half of the reason I like osu is because it's popular enough that people have mapped almost any song you can think of, so I can find things I really enjoy listening to and playing

I'm not part of any other rhythm game communities, but like, do people not usually play them for the music? Is there something wrong with that?

>>15438720
welp, I haven't gotten carpal tunnel yet. I'll get back to ya.

>>15438712
>Thank you

Fuck off Peppy

>>15438728
a lot of the people who play music games here do play them exclusively for improvement and the feeling of success

personally i exclusively play rhythm games where i enjoy the music, but i also don't play games that have shit gameplay.

>>15438699

Would you play osu! if it didn't have a combo based scoring system?

Cause drummania's scoring system is very largely combo based and no one shit's on it.

Yeah it still has an "EX score"-like system and the actual score is mostly meaningless like the money score in IIDX but still, it's combo based.

>>15438712
alright lets talk this out

combo based scoring is shit: it encourages you to mash through hard patterns instead of trying to clear them with good accuracy so you dont miss and break the combo

also having HP, OD, AR, be decided by the map maker is stupid

the dev team is stupid and want to add stupid shit without looking at other rhythm games (just look at scorev2 and how it spits in the face of logic)

the game's community is full of stupid third worlders and obnoxious beta weeaboos that love to create drama.

just play stepmania or some shit dude lmao

>>15438728
Half of the songs in Osu are stolen from Bemani titles anyway.

Plenty of us play rhythm games for the music, as the soundtracks are all pretty good, with the exception of maybe Jubeat.

>>15438749
No, because the idea of having non-consistent circle sizes, variable timing windows, variable approach rates, variable healthbar difficulties, etc are all fucking stupid.

I play rhythm games for rhythm and the fun of the patterns, not for mashing 8th and occasional 16th note streams on Z and X.

>>15438163
been playing for quite some time, still can't get S on certain songs like FUJIN Rumble.

>>15438751
>>15438756

Ok, I do agree with you guys about the combo thing, but I don't really consider myself a "competitive" player or anything, so the scoring system isn't of utmost importance to me. I play the game because it's fun and because I know I'm guaranteed to always find new music I like, unlike in games with set, included soundtracks where eventually you're gonna get through everything it has to offer.

I also don't understand why all the map customization is a bad thing. Osu! is less of a game itself than it is an engine for user creation, so there's nothing wrong with letting those creators have options. If they do a shitty job mapping, people just won't play the map.

>>15438690
In my humble opinion, Osu is fine but ONLY if you play it casually. It's really simple and easy for beginners that know fuck-all about rhythm games.

The second you take that game seriously, you lose.

>>15438808
> I don't really consider myself a "competitive" player or anything

I'm fine with this. But it's not really of discussion here, since the game isn't Japanese. Also, at least >90% of the people that post here highly dislike Osu.

You're swimming with the sharks here, anon. Don't be a retard.

>>15438809
I don't take it very seriously. Like I said, it's just fun.

iidx has a ton of good songs though?

>>15439130
>IIDX has a bad sountrack
stop living anytime

>>15439098
It has many great songs, but it's tainted by all the commercial licenses, which is why I said "maybe" if you're looking at it as a whole.

>>15439130
IIDX has arguably the best soundtrack overall out of all Bemani games though.

Can't speak for Gitadora, haven't played.

On a sidenote, one can argue that SDVX contains the most dogshit songs, but luckily it's saved by a bunch of really good tracks.

>>15439252
>one can argue that SDVX contains the most dogshit songs

I don't understand why people think SDVX has bad music. Is it that some people just don't like touhou remixes or vocaloid songs? I've played nearly every song and I rarely found one I disliked.

Honestly I think pop'n has the biggest proportion of boring songs, especially from the older versions. I agree IIDX has the best soundtrack overall, even the older styles are great.

>>15439295
Plenty of SDVX's soundtrack is hit-or-miss if you're not a fan of vocaloid, which for certain people makes a large portion of the soundtrack relatively "bad". The only songs that are actually really, really awful are the Second Heaven remix and the Red Zone remix. You can also argue that the majority of the Touhou remixes in there are only in there because they were memes at some point or another.

The other half of SDVX's soundtrack is fantastic, but it's not as consistently good as IIDX, which is why I consider it a bit lower on the scale.

>>15439306
>the Red Zone remix
what, the "neoclassical party remix"? it's not that bad

i'd rather play the original song, sure but i wouldn't call it awful

>>15439295
pop'n soundtrack has some really high points like Gradius -full speed-

>>15439306
IIDX has a great soundtrack but a lot of the songs are kinda forgettable with a few that stay in everyones head after the style is over.

SDVX has some shit remixes yes but other than that it has some really good shit, also a lot of the remixes are good as well as lots of 2hu and vocaloid so that becomes entirely opinion based since some people dont like 2hu or vocaloid. Not sure how you can say either of those since the 2 are very fuvcking varied but yeah.

>>15439181

Are you not supposed to use your thumbs when playing Taiko on portables? Most videos of japs clearing stuff on 3DS and Vita have them placing the console on a flat surface and using their index fingers to hit the face buttons. My thumbs can't keep up with the spam on the fastest 10-star songs but I don't know how worth it it'd be to switch over and get used to the awkward index finger dance.

We have more at stake and they have cracked down on us already.

I finally did it! After over two months I severely damaged my rebuilt, solid wood DAO FP7.

Made out of solid 1x3s and MDF, I started cracking some shit after hundreds and hundreds of full power slams right on the keys. Even managed to destroy two of the white key's "plastic shells". Never once though killed an Omron.

Which I find odd because I did kill one with my non-destroyed FP7. I guess it just had too much give to it.

Not too sure but I may or may not have severe anger issues. Who cares, it's all part of IIDX, amirite?

>>15439577
I also am playing future tone
How do I read combos?

>>15440155
No you crazy fuck. It's not part of IIDX. You're supposed to act classy and shit.

Since you enjoy breaking expensive shit, can you gift me one of your broken controllers? I'll pay the shipping price.

>>15440174

I'm not crazy and I only have the one controller. I rebuilt it with wood and it is sturdy as fuck.

It really only started breaking down due to a fault in my building. One I won't repeat in the future.

So sorry that you don't feel intense love for rhythm games. You'll never understand my feelings.

>>15440198
I love my controller, which is why I don't break them like a psychopath.

So I played HDD data on my new computer and it runs at a different frame rate. I heard people saying the frame rate doesn't really matter in the end if it's locked and doesn't change but I got destroyed playing it.

It's really bumming me out since I'll pretty much have to learn the whole game again or at the very least take some time to adapt. Used to play at 69fps for some reason and now the proper 59.336 kills me.

>>15440204

Well good for you you Nancy boy faggot.

Not all of us can constrain every corner of our minds during intense play, thus, immeasurable anger comes forth.

Don't think I don't love my controller either, just because I beat the fuck out of it. It allows me to play the game I love so therefore I love it as well.

>>15440250
You have anger problems faggot. this isn't normal.

You're gonna end up beating your gf and butt raped in jail.

>>15440250
Chill out dude. It's not like Mario Kart where the AI throws a shell at you and laughs in your face as he passes you. It's a fucking rhythm game. You press the buttons you see on the screen. You only have yourself to blame if you're shit. There's nothing to get mad at.

>>15440269
>>15440280

I genuinely can't understand playing a song you've played dozens of times before, taking a quick glance to the right and seeing you're 50, 100, 200 EX from your best play and not instantly becoming explosively angry.

I can understand doing a little worse on a song, just to pass, but to do worse on al regards, it defeats the very point of rhythm games: to constantly become better than you were.

Why the fuck am I not as good as a fucking week ago? What the fuck happened? I'll never bee good at this rate!

>>15440296
being frustrated and being angry is fine. Taking your anger out on something you love is not.

It is literally the same exact excuse that wife beaters use.

>>15440170
Cool is the best one and a after that comes fine if that's what you mean

>>15440324

Well, then. Good thing I'm a forever along weaboo loser.

I hate osu but sometimes I play o!m when I want a break from other keyboard vsrg. I feel like most of /jp/ that plays any kb does this.

>>15440351
I mean the new double mechanism. Whatever the terminology is.

>>15440296
>the very point of rhythm games: to constantly become better than you were
that's not the point of rhythm games you fuckin sperg

the point is to hit buttons to some music and have fun

>>15440296

Accepting the swings in your performance is also part of being a good player. Going on tilt is just going to make you do worse anyways. Also, if you're not good, you shouldn't be playing any song dozens of times. You should be playing a wide variety of songs so you develop your ability to hit any sort of pattern.

>>15440464
even if you're a good player you shouldn't really grind out songs over and over. M!tsuba (and I'm sure most other top rankers) advises against doing that since constant replays of the same songs leads to shittier scores and you should switch songs in between plays.

>>15440386
You mean chords?

You just... press them at the same time? Get good at using your peripheral vision. Diva's a very easy rhythm game, even the arcade version.

>>15438749
The scoring system isn't based on combo it's based on a combination of accuracy, mod difficulty , combo and song complexity.
That scoring system is 'PP'

>>15438749
I don't like using a mouse to click circles. Osu! could be a mediocre game if it was on tablets (no, that piece of shit Osu! stream doesn't count), but it's just no fun at all to me to play on PC.

Also, most beatmaps for it are genuinely godawful. It's a game that relies on user-generated content, and naturally, most of that content is garbage.

And the community has its fair share of idiots.

>>15440519
I found it, they're called multis.
>just press them at the same time
Solid advice for literally every rhythm game ever.
I find the thing that makes PJD stand apart from the more common vsrgs is that it's a lot harder to read.

>>15440548
Yeah. If PJD was formatted like a VSRG, it'd be very easy. The challenge is finding the notes in the middle of the PV.

Have fun. I can't buy FT for another week until my pay comes in.

I like it, pretty damn fun to play with the whole dynamic play area thing.

>>15440553
it's certainly very pretty, not quite as pretty as groove coaster but the lane shifting makes for some interesting gameplay while serving as eye candy. I feel like the timing is harsher than Cytus or Deemo. Songlist is decent but mostly locked behind the stupid key system. At least the free songs rotate every once in a while.

the always-online requirement is straight shit though

Talking about Vita Taiko here, but you can FC everything except Yuugen no Ran with your thumbs.

The only confirmed video of someone FCing Yuugen is wearing mittens and rubbing the buttons with his index fingers, not pressing (looks gay as shit). But all other high tier 10s are FC-able with thumbs (though things like the ending of Calculator might require the analog stick)

As for accuracy there are too few 全良 videos/discussion to make a judgment whether it's easier to be accurate with indexes or thumbs, but if there's a difference it's probably tiny.

just don't use L/R unless you never plan to play arcade

in the vita Im@s x Taiko game there's a meme song with a section that makes no rhythmic sense and made a lot of players annoyed

someone on the taiko wiki discovered that when you line up the 7 measures vertically it reads "IDOL 765P," which is of course 765 Production, the main group of the series

Gameplay doesn't really feel much different from its predecessors. The moving lanes tend to be visually distracting and they don't add much to the gameplay that hasn't already been done before in games such as CHUNITHM.

Songwise, its decent but nothing too special. I feel that many of the songs try too hard to be "artsy" and dramatic (that can be said for all three of Rayark's games as a whole though). No stupid story unlocks this time around (I think), so that's a plus at least.

I'll admit, it's one of the better rhythm games I've played on mobile, but that's not saying much honestly.

Good to know it should still be possible to clear most stuff using thumbs. I have like 5 songs on Vita left to get a silver crown on. Already managed to barely survive Xa by (ab)using the sticks.

I don't think I'll ever have a chance to play at the arcade, but I did import a tatacon for the Wii/Wii U games and mod it a while ago. I'm still prett inexperienced and clumsy with them but it's easy to see how there's less of a "wall" in terms of how fast I can physically process inputs compared to buttons.

Considering getting (or making) those wooden drumsticks since the plastic stock ones leave a lot to be desired, but I don't know how much they'd actually help me out and how much is placebo. Do you have any input on those?

What dictates being good at Stepmania?

I started playing about a week ago, and I can play most level 10 - 11 songs at 6x and get a B or so

I don't really have a frame of reference on what being 'good' is

>>15440990
Why are you playing on 6X?
What packs have you been playing? Almost every single pack has it's own fuggin difficulty scale

>>15440990
I believe that instead of pushing yourself in BPM etc. you should be aiming for a better accuracy

>>15440996
Mostly the Otaku's dream packs and some Tachyon Alpha stuff.

Reading faster isn't 100% guaranteed to make you better, it certainly does help in some speedup/slowdown songs, though.

I would look into maipachi if you intend on ever reaching a high level. I've never played WiiU taiko so I don't know what the plastic ones are like but maipachi are really light and comfortable and are pretty much essential for being consistent on 10s and high 9s.There's a lot of videos on how to make them.

I have four songs left, if you have five you probably need either Disappearance of Miku or Charlie Dash!! next (since I don't see why you would have five left over if you had no DLC and managed to clear Xa)

If it's Charlie Dash, you should give the index finger style a try. Most of the videos FCing it are people using their indexes, and I did it first with my indexes, though I can now easily pass with my thumbs.

Disappearance of Miku is just a matter of time, you'll probably just wake up one day and find that you can do it (assuming you haven't already)

Let me know if you've cleared pic related, I could use some tips.

>>15441365
The stock plastic ones are really light and not as all as terrible as one would think, but they are plump and clumsy. I'll probably make my own maibachis though, don't feel like paying 50 bucks for having two wooden sticks shipped over here.

Miku, Charlie Dash, Joubutsu, MM and Yuugen are the ones I have left (and Donkama 2000 as well, but I cleared that one by cheating with the pause menu because it's retarded). I'm like 3 or 4 "nodes" away from clearing the first three so it's just a matter of getting consistent and nailing those tricky streams that mix freely between 12th/16th/24th notes.

I really want to support an actual legit PC release but this is stupid and im tempted to go back to playing pendual data..

>>15444632

Infinitas looks incredibly mediocre overall, just simple shit like having to select the mission you want to do instead of it automatically completing when you finish a song puts me completely off from the game

>>15444831

yea it is. it also feels very unfinished.

but somehow i feel obligated to shell out to konmai.. If theres enough people playing, just maybe they'll keep adding stuff to it...

p cucked desu

Konami literally does not care about us, we aren't even considered

>>15445441
I'm already used to that considering the country I live but this must be extremely hurtful for americans who probably assume they're the main market of the entire planet and all companies should pander to them.

Like they can't even fathom why a company simply doesn't care about them.

What you said is ironic, all things considered.

I remember I met some old japanese ladies as a small kid and they really liked me (I poorly sang a song from that N64 Goemon game), going "Oh you should come to Japan! Everyone will like you, you look japanese!"

I don't know what was going on in their heads since I don't look asian at all, but it's funny how their idea of a compliment is "You look/sound like us!".

>>15445493
Yeah, it's actually kinda sad. It's even worse than America's blind patriotism.

I once got told in Sapporo to literally just leave Japan because I'm not welcome there.

>>15445509

I decided if I ever went to Japan, I'd use extremely polite language. Masu and mashite on every verb, maybe watashi if I'm meeting someone new, who knows.
Just be really nice.

But the second some shit tries to tell me off like that, to just go away, I will very rudely tell them to fuck off and die.

Sounds like it'd be stupidly scratch-heavy.

I'd play it.

>>15445509
Never fails to make me sad.

I still play the games and work on learning the language (long story short, not much better to do while I'm on the job) and I still think I'd want to visit the country once.

But I know this will happen. I know untold others think this way even if they don't make it public. I wouldn't expect otherwise. But it still makes me sad.

What should I say?

>also client is literally spyware
Please explain, I still have it installed because taikojiro crashes on launch.

So if I'm using random to practice crazy patterns I should pick a lower level than I usually play right?

I give my all to pass 11s but with Random my ass is handed to me. And level 10 songs that are a breeze to play suddenly feel much more challenging.

i stayed in japan for 2 months and was never even spoken to by anyone who wasn't a store clerk or restaurant waiter, and one dude who asked if a drink left on the drummania was mine

you guys vastly overestimate how much anyone would give a shit about you

>>15447640

if u think anyone would ever want to associate with that fatass yuropoor faggot then just go fuck yourself

>>15447519
Client has a function that takes a screenshot of your entire desktop and logs what you have open and under what usernames and then sends it straight to peppy.

alright no matter how much i fuck with it I can't get the analog input to work properly with bemanitoolds and my fp7
Getting real tired of using my keyboard to naviagte menus and painstakingly taking forever to adjust GN and WN

>>15447693
don't set anything on TT+ and TT-. go to analog and make sure to select the correct input device to the Y axis.

>>15447820
There's multiple pages of key bindings - make sure that you don't have anything in the other pages as well.

If it doesn't spin in bemanitools then it won't work.

Hopefully the reduced shipping on the RED v2's last another 2 weeks so I can buy it without being irresponsible.

I need it to finish my home arcade.

Oh my god thank you, i forgot i had a separate binding on page 3 for some reason.
it is working a lot closer to AC now, a little tweaking the sensitivity and i should be good
