Sometimes I feel like I'm the only IIDX player here stuck on 7's

How do you fucks even afford controllers? I don't get enough NEETbux

>>15542807
DIY, you can make shitty controller with chinese switches for pretty cheap.

>>15542803
How long have you been playing?
I spent over a month on 7s but I feel like I took longer than I needed because I went through 8s and 9s very quickly.

what are you supposed to put in the "memo" spot on an e-amuse card? your name?

>>15542803
nah there's more

i've been stuck on ITG 9s for like the past 9 months, but i still have fun with the game and that's all that matters..!

the revolutionary etude has ~2100 notes in the span of 2.5 minutes

that's about 1680 notes per 2 minutes.

the average level 12 iidx chart has ~1700 notes per 2 minutes.

piano players are filthy casuals

>>15542877
i've been playing for a little over half a year on CS, but I haven't played very frequently. I'm starting to tire of the relatively small song selection in the CS releases, and AC is a no-go because the nearest Round 1 is 2 hours away and I don't have a car, plus playing on AC data with a KOC sucks
i'm still having fun tho

>>15543216
If you ever want a laugh, stick a 10-dan in front of doubles keyboardmania and see what happens

>>15543635
i don't get how people can play kbm

not like "how do you play a keyboard", that's obvious, but reading the notes must be so hard

So this releases in a few days, are there going to be proxy services or something selling them?

>>15543810
isn't that controller the one with no springs and a smooth turntable?

why would you even want it when you can get something better for the same amount of money?

unless you're collecting official konami stuff or something

>>15543810
I'm sure you could just buy it and send it to a forward service for assloads of money.

>>15543547
yeah you really wont progress very quickly if you're not playing nearly every day. Go at your own pace if you're having fun but it would be a good idea to spend more time playing if you really want to improve at a reasonable pace.

>>15543635

Doubles KBM is a nightmare no matter who you are. Fucking have to juggle notes scrolling on two screens at once.

You're only hope really is memorizing the bass half and only focusing on treble.

If it were one giant monitor it might be more manageable.

>>15542803
Stuck on 7 here too. But I have an excuse, I'm playing on keyboard with arcade layout.

So the Green Number is the maximum number of notes that can appear in the lanes at once, right?

Based on what? 16ths? 24s? 32nds? Unless they count chords and scratches, I can't really imagine ~300 notes on the screen at once.

Also, If you have say a 290 WN and a 290 GN on every song, will it always appear the same regardless of BPM?

Finally, is the Groove Gauge based off of the song's note count? I feel like the fewer notes there are, the larger the hit to your gauge when you miss a note.

>>15544100
because it works flawlessly on Infinitas, and is an official IIDX controller.

>>15544443
>So the Green Number is the maximum number of notes that can appear in the lanes at once, right?
No, I think it's the number of frames a note will appear on screen times 10.

>Finally, is the Groove Gauge based off of the song's note count? I feel like the fewer notes there are, the larger the hit to your gauge when you miss a note.
Yes.

>>15544443
>is the Groove Gauge based off of the song's note count

duh

more notes = more music = more grooving

it's basic math

>>15544443
GN is the amount of milliseconds it takes for a note to reach the red zone from the top of the lane (this is why Sudden+ can lock the GN and still affect the scrolling speed of the notes).

>>15544443
>So the Green Number is the maximum number of notes that can appear in the lanes at once, right?

>>15544614 is right. Milliseconds on screen.


>Also, If you have say a 290 WN and a 290 GN on every song, will it always appear the same regardless of BPM?

Yes, unless the song has BPM changes, obviously.


>Finally, is the Groove Gauge based off of the song's note count? I feel like the fewer notes there are, the larger the hit to your gauge when you miss a note.

You're almost right. The gauge always *drops* at the same rate no matter the note count, but it does recover slower at higher note counts. A 100 note beginner chart wouldn't have enough notes to get into the 80% passing range without having each note's % value bumped up. Similarly, a 2000 note chart would be much easier if 50 notes alone was enough to build your % up to 80%.

>>15544721
wait no, i'm wrong. it's the framesx10 like >>15544485 said

>4th day of SDVX
>cleared my first 13

I'm on a roll here, at least till I get to 14s

>>15545038

I cleared my first 13 within 12 hours of playing SDVX with my controller.

Two months later, I'm halfway through 14s. It's a rough road.

>>15543810
Jeez those 4 option buttons are close. Might as well made them the same size as the regular 7 buttons so you only have to rotate the controller to go between 1p and 2p.

>>15545063

Speaking of which, why doesn't Dao have three buttons on his controllers like Yuan controllers do?

If Yuan's TT didn't look like shit I might buy one.

Thoughts on the svse5 with Omrons?
Turbochargers seem out of my reach

>>15545591
Should be just fine. Might want to consider getting Copals as well, though.

>>15545591

It's what I use. Bought mine stock through the US warehouse and replaced the switches to Omrons myself.

Then later upgraded it to copals.

It's a mighty fine controller.

By the way, does anyone know if Sanwa makes those BT buttons?

>>15545591
In a similar vein, has anyone tried the more expensive SDVX controller Dao offers? supposedly it has ac quality knobs. it looks incredible and I'm a sucker for aesthetics so I might buy that one.

Getting worse every day sure is fun haha

>>15542803
i only get to play at round1

i can do 6s and sometimes 7s

>>15545818

Boy that must be hell. Being only able to pay for playing.

You're gonna be better off saving your money and buying a controller before you hit even 8s or 9s.

That being said, I'm jealous and I want to play on a machine.

>>15545981

It's close enough and at least able to build your skills up. If you can get passed the 10 or 11 wall on LR2, you could quickly and easily get back there on actual IIDX.

>>15545038
I cleared my first 15 within my first 5 days of playing.

K, so I just bought pic related.

Can somebody link me a taiko emulator that's not osu? Also, is there a guide on how to hook it up on my pc (preferably without any sort of adapter, at least for now)

thanks

>>15546246
I don't know why you wouldn't research before buying one, but there's 太鼓さん次郎

>>15546274
Well, I knew it existed, just didn't know what it was called.

Thanks a lot, btw.

>>15546223

Bullshit. Fucking how? There's no game out there that can prepare you for the knobbery.

>>15546337

Daiuchuu stage, probably. I also cleared my first few 15s within a week, and that was my first (I cleared it before clearing a 14, even.)

Most of the 15s from Booth are tame when it comes to knobs. They didn't start going ham until later.

>>15546409

>Daiuchuu stage

Wait, so you played this and then passed a 15 when you started SDVX?

That's literally the same shit. Just a KSM clone.

>>15546337
Not the same anon, but knobs are more so reading than physical skill (except for fast shit like Hyena, BSB etc. of course). I first tried Fairy Dancing when I got my controller since I had a decent amount of practice with K-Shoot.

And as >>15546409 said, Daiuchuu should be very easy if you're a 2dx player.

>>15546437

What? I mean like, the song Daiuchuu Stage. It's a 15 on EXH for some reason. It should probably be a 13 but Konami says it counts!!

>>15546452

So when you say "within 5 days of playing" you mean "5 days of playing Daiuchuu Stage"?

>>15546488

Is Daiuchuu Stage also the name of a simulator or something? I'm talking about "Sound Voltex III: Gravity Wars: The Hit Game From Konami You Can Also Illegally Play At Your House(tm)." Like, day 1 would be defined as the day my ASC arrived at my house, and then on day 2 I selected the song "Daiuchuu Stage" on the song select menu and failed it, and then selected it a second time and passed it, and then on day 5 I cleared Brain Power and I think also Rakugakist and maybe some other 15s? Anyways, the point is that you can definitely clear 15s within a week of starting, cuz some of them are easy. Playing IIDX for 11 years beforehand probably helps.

>>15546527

Ummm, I guess I'm fucking retarded. I googled that name and the video I saw looks nothing like the SDVX I've played.

Also I don't really pay too much attention to the song titles. I just play the songs that don't sound awful.

>>15546555
the sdvx interface has evolved massively since the first game

>>15546246
You can buy a wiimote. If your pc has an integrated blutooth card, you can play with just that. Otherwise, you will have to get a blutooth card for your pc yourself in addition to the wiimote.
I don't know if adapters directly from tatacon to pc exist.
Another advantage of wiimote+blutooth: if your pc is good enough and you tweak the emulator Dolphin sufficiently, you can play the 5 taiko wii games on your pc.

On the webui, if you add someone as a rival do you become their rival as well? Is it like some friend request type shit?

>>15546966
Thank you for playing.

>>15546966

It's one-sided, but on their player page they can see the list of people who have added them as a rival.

>>15545633
The front angled part of it is unsupported and just a cantilever, and I think it's snapped off before.

Correct me if this has been changed.

Hey. My friend is visiting Japan and is in Tokyo going to Osaka. Where could he get those special e-amusement cards with images on them?

>tfw my stupid gay hands get all clammy when playing and they slide off the turntable during scratches

Might sound a little ironic, but I fucking hate Daisuke. I will never fucking clear this fucking song. I'll be clearing 12s before Daisuke. Stupid dancing faggot.

>>15547497

I don't know what you're talking about, but it doesn't sound right.

The controller is just angled like that, there's no "cantilevers".

Care to draw a diagram to explain what you're talking about?

it won't snap off unless you put some serious force on it.
also if you hit it or something, the controller is likely to wobble or fall over instead of having it break off like that.

>>15549511

Actually after reexamining the photos on his site with this mindset I think you might actually be right.

I always just thought the controller was angled but I guess it was just how the goofy lines made it seem.

That's really disappointing and disgusting. Glad I got the SVSE5. Never buying that piece of shit now.

>>15550230
Isn't it angled? I remember seeing some videos of it and I'm pretty sure it was angled.

No. I always thought so too.

But after looking at it again it's not.

Left image here with the lines is what I always thought it was. But the image on the right clearly shows the side of the controller that faces you being a normal rectangle. Given this and the fact that the top down angle is NOT a rectangle proves that it's just a stupid fragile piece of acrylic that juts out for no reason.

I'm super disappointed by this and feel bad for anyone who bought this.

The two should be keysounded. It'd be fucking awful if they weren't.

>>15551074
I'm sure they are this time, but having songs like this in IIDX at all gives me a bad feeling about the future.

>>15551036

What songs aren't keysounded and why? I've never noticed anything.

Is it just because you need access to the "raw project file" for lack of a better term to properly keysound things and they weren't given access?

is this a dick move or do people not care about that kind of stuff

>>15553265
Stomp them into the ground. If you're better, what do they have to be upset about.

Rivals that are significantly worse than you but are still beating you on a handful of things are a good for identifying scores that you need to improve.

It's less meaningful if you're not very skilled and haven't filled out the song list yet. At that stage, chances are both you and your rivals are improving significantly, making things too volatile.

>>15553265
That's literally the whole point, to keep playing to see who can keep being the one with the least losses.

>>15553265

Just yesterday, I added a rival who was slightly better than me in Pop'n and my shit instantly improved.

No motivation better than being number 2.

Although I think he might be using the keyboard because his scores are wildly inconsistent.

Can someone point me to where I can buy the exact type of LEDs in DJ Dao's controllers? I know there all kinds of shit that will probably work, but my autism demands they be the exact same model of LED.

According to bemaniwiki the Another is an 11

>>15554800
The current Dao firmware has a feature where if you double tap the Select button it functions as VFX, and if you triple tap it it functions as Effect + VFX.
I use 1 on the numpad to switch between difficulties but the triple tap function is very useful for quitting out of songs easy

>>15554703
That's the point isn't?

Anyway, I just have to be patient.

>>15556774

>if you triple tap it it functions as Effect + VFX.

Boy, I gotta tell ya. I've never in my life seen something not work as much as that just didn't.

Do I have to bind select to something specific for it to work? Or nothing at all for that matter?

The double tap to change difficulty works, but I just think that's how the game is. If a double tap = VEFX then the + I set my VEFX as should change difficulties but it doesn't

>>15557054
>The double tap to change difficulty works, but I just think that's how the game is.
p sure you one-tap vfx to change difficulty, that's how it's worked for me playing iidx in arcades

>>15557054
Maybe he means start?
I've never played arcade, but double tapping start turns sud+ on and off for me on ac data

>>15557061
>>15557075

Is there some goofy nonsense I have to do in bemanitools to get this to work? I'm pretty sure I have my select as Effect and + as VEFX. Could be wrong though.

>>15557075
This is correct and supposed to happen in AC.

EFF should change between FSH and regular Hi-Speed

VEFX should change difficulties

>>15557284

So I fetched up the thread from when 1.17 dropped and saw this

>start+select+7，select function，default off.

I'm thinking I have to turn that feature on. Didn't see that last time I was there.

>>15559227

All that did was tweak the TT sensitivity a little, give you HID lights, which is largely useless; all it does it flash the keys on song select, and give you the select button option now.

To turn it on you hold Start, Select and Key 7 for a second or two.

Now, if you have Select set to effect it works like this.
1 click = Effect
2 click = VEFX
3 clicks = Effect + VEFX (ragequit)

Guys when do we get Eclale? When do we Eclale with card support??

>>15559448

We don't even have Lapistoria with card support yet. I do want to play that Himouto OP so bad though.

So I took a gander at the 9th Dan course, and I just want to give up forever.

Holic [A] right off the bat. I'm fucking done first song, there's no fucking way in hell I'll ever pass this shit.

Not the ones in 9th dan but bare in mind the dan gauge is much easier so you don't necessarily have to be able to NC them to clear the dan course. Right now I would be able to NC Holic if it weren't for the bullshit ending but I still would have 40%+ in dan gauge.

>>15559754

I know, I was just trying to gauge how much better than me you are, so I can know how far off even a reasonable run at 9th Dan would be. How far do you get into Sampling Paradise?

>>15560293
>implying DAOs aren't overpriced

>>15560754

If you don't already have wood/case materials, the proper tools to cut out holes for buttons, and some electrical/wiring knowledge it's not really.
I mean, you're paying someone to construct the thing, not just find a bunch of shitty chink buttons that end up costing 50 bucks cheaper. Which is the only argument against DAOs I've seen in these threads

>>15560829

I'll also add, that I'm 95% sure he commissions the manufacture of his turntable assembly. The metal shroud, that translucent plastic, and even perhaps the bearings.

Especially for the FP7s and FPSs. The Real Editions he might be buying the same parts that actually go on arcade machines.

>>15560829
Wood is cheap as hell, even pre-cut. A holesaw and a couple of drill bits can be had for under 10 dollars. Honestly, not having the woodworking skill required to construct a box with just a drill and some screws is fucking shameful.

>>15560848
I really don't understand all the fuss about turntables. Mine is literally just a piece of acrylic with wax paper glued to the bottom and the controller so it spins freely, combined with a half-decent encoder hooked up to an arduino. The total cost for the whole set-up was around 30 bucks. If you wanted to make it super arcade accurate, spend an extra 2 dollars on a block of wood to elevate it and some textured tape for the top.

People are really only paying for aesthetics, and they're paying through the nose when you consider how cheaply you could build DAOs with a production factory. It blows my mind that people will get ripped off that hard for the sake of some flashing lights.

>>15561325

Post pics of your controller.

>>15561325
Flashing lights aren't even that expensive. I added obnoxious color changing flashing lights to my turntable and the entire controller only cost about 125.

Of course, my controller is built with the shittiest microswitches money can buy.

Speaking of speed changes, how the fuck do you do Lunatic Rough Party!!.

I literally have no chance at ever passing it. I read 625 normally so 400 is like 1.6. That's not fast enough for the rest of the song that's 120. Fuck my life.

This is great, can't believe I never thought of it.

ok my fp7 was working fine up until an hour ago. I went to plug it in again and now it doesn't work. Windows either ignores it, thinks I'm plugging in and removing it multiple times, or recognises it as a PS3 controller... until I move the turntable at which point it unplugs itself again.

What the fuck is going on? When I leave it plugged in, the select light flickers every ten seconds or so, if that helps.

where can i get all the sdvx songs for k-shoot

idk how to get iidx, so ill just play sdvx

Whats the reasoning behind faster notes or covered lanes resulting in better timings?

>>15562923
Faster notes helping with timing should be obvious.

Lane cover helps certain people that like to be able to view the entire field of notes while still giving the feeling of having faster scrolling notes.

whats the best way to get all of these songs here

Fuck you.

>>15562945
then you're fucked, the dude running that archive hasn't responded in 15 months

or just stop being lazy and download them one by one

>>15562434
if you're using floating hi speed, holding start and slapping the tt real quick 'snaps' back to whatever green number you've set. Makes changing it mid song relatively practical.

>>15562945

Download them individually, on Chrome it's not too bad

>>15562145
>>15562204
Lunatic is baby shit. Play/watch Soflan-chan if you want to see real hell.

>>15563382
But Soflan-chan is easy since you can keep the same hispeed the whole time and have no problems reading it as long as you remember how the song goes. The slower bits are generally easier so you don't need to change your speed to time it well.

Lunatic on the other hand you can't possibly get a good score on unless you change your hispeed midway, since the difference between the start and the end is so drastic. And changing your speed is a pain in SDVX since you can't reset it back to default like in IIDX, so you just have to hold start when you're already turning the knobs and pray you get it at the right number.

>>15563400
Just start with a low hi-speed like 2,0-2,5. The slow stuff on Lunatic is miles easier. Also, as far as I know, it doesn't go lower than the initial value unlike Soflan's ridiculous 32BPM, so you don't really have to learn Lunatic unless you want to use regular hi-speed.

>>15562923
Faster notes makes less notes appear on the screen at once, thus making you judge them better.

>>15563236
How do you set a green number?

>>15563465
Turn on Sudden+ in the options and then mess with VEFX and Effect + TT while holding Start before the song.

>>15563465
Turn on Sudden+, hold start before a song starts, adjust your high speed. You'll see your green number on the bottom of your lane cover.

>>15563481
Yeah, I know this, but does that count as 'set'?
As in, if I put it at 300 gn 300 sud+ and then halfway through the song a speed change happens, will it adjust when I hold start and spam tt?

>>15563492
Yes.

>>15563532

So there's a song with a slow down. I set my GN for its "regular speed" then when I hit the slow down, I quickly raise my hispeed.

Then when it speeds back up I hold start and spam TT to reset to my original GN?

What exactly is meant by "spam the TT"? Spin it? Rapidly scratch it? Cum on it?

>>15562868

How long have you had it? Open it up and make sure everything is plugged in firmly, then see if all the solder points going to the PCB from the USB cable seem okay.
Failing that, I guess ask Dao himself if he can give you a replacement PCB, or just buy a new one.

>>15563851
>What exactly is meant by "spam the TT"?
Just move it a tiny bit in either direction so that your white number changes. Repeat whenever there's another speed change.

>>15563983
Could you please wipe my ass too, mommy?

>>15563983

Oh, now I know what you're talking about. I always thought that was annoying and it's why I never use floating Hi-Speed.

What the best pop'n music to start with? I played a bit at a convention and the Guy taking care of the stand sold me a pad for 50 bucks because I was his only player in the day.

Older Pop'ns are actually harder. Less songs, more erratic, shit charts. Newer versions people actually put thought into them.

>>15564740
Thanks I'll go dl and install the 20 then and go down while progressing.

>>15564698
if you're emulating: 10-14, pop'n music portable 1&2 (for psp)
arcade data: whatever is the most recent one you can find (most up to date version that's released is 22)
if you're playing on a real ps2: probably 14, and then get more versions if you want to continue playing.

what kind of controller did you get for $50?

>>15562945
Use the plugin DownThemAll for firefox. Select/Highlight the whole song list > right-click > DownThemAll selection

You got a fucking Dao for 50 bucks? I'm jelly as fuck.

How much does it usually cost ?

>>15564802
meant to be to >>15564793

>>15564786
Wow. That's an amazing deal.

Make sure to pop open the inside and check the switches. Omron is the name you're looking for the best quality.

It'd be worth it to upgrade/change them in case you want lighter/heavier switches.

>>15564796

Premade, yeah.

It could get better with arcade accurate springs and switches with Sanwa push buttons, but as far as I am aware, there is nowhere you can buy a Pop'n controller with Sanwas. You'd need to build it yourself. I'm thinking about doing just that and making it as nice as I can and it would cost well north of 500 bucks.

>>15564802

holy fuck what a deal, you got that thing for 1/5 of it's usual price, please put it to good use!

getting arcade data to work isn't as hard it may seem, but it can be a bit involved to make it start working.

you might also want to check out LR2/PMS, which is basically pop'n music but the music and the charts are made all community made.

>>15564812
>>15564819
Yeah, a full set of Sanwa buttons would cost around $400 or so.

>>15564827
Get the FP7, it's the best one available for the least retarded price. Sanwas are optional but better microswitches are recommended.

>>15564828
>LR2/PMS

>>15564827
>I don't wanna broke it but I'll try to check after playing a bit, I'm nor really good with scrapping things.

You should be fine. Can't really break it unless you put a lot of force into it.
If you need help, just post here or on pig site.

>>15564819
>>15564828

Yup, I'm aware of their cost. I'm stilling thinking about doing it. Going the full 9. Polycarbonate top with LED lighting, arcin board, sanwas, whatever badass paint job I feel like putting on there.

I already built me a Pop'n controller. These Chinese buttons are so loud and just feel cheap. I'm sure those Sanwas would feel fantastic. I've never touched a real Pop'n cab in my life, though.

>>15564778
Well people sell minicons for like 80bucks now so 50 isn't a terrible price for one

The recommended games to play are IIDX, DDR, and pop'n.

SDVX is somewhat meme-tier but still an excellent rhythm game.

Jubeat is a meme game but still kind of acceptable.

literally anything that doesn't involve a touch screen.

If you're in a city in N. America you probably have a DDR machine nearby.

If you're Mexican you could try playing Pump it Up?

More like peasant games.

But hey, it's better than osu.

>>15571461
Even the Dragon Quest music game is better than Osu, but just because DQ music is 11/10

Reflec Beat is the most underrated misunderstood rhythm game currently out there

lol Reflec Beat is trash.

>>15571488

Have you even played reflec beat faggot

>>15571545
Yeah. I didn't like it. It's stupid.

I don't like how the fucking notes fly at you from everywhere. Music is pretty great though.

>>15571193
osu and all touch screen games are memes

all touch screen games except cxb rev are bad

jubeat is an honorary touchscreen game

play iidx, sdvx, pop'n, museca, or dance games (ddr, itg, piu)

Those are some pretty solid arguments in here

Reflec beat isn't gay

All stream and zero tech is not impressive when it's all ITG players have been doing for the past decade since Roxor got Konami'd. Every chart that's 16 or higher is literally the same exact shit but faster/longer and it wouldn't phase me if they took pre-existing sm/dwi files and changed the tempo and offset and copy-pasted the patterns a couple dozen times.

>>15571468
Dairy Queen music games?

>>15571792

gtfo mendes nobody likes reflec beat
