Yep. Maybe even DJ Max P3 6.2T mode. Eventually would like to make a Pop'n controller.

God damn I hate painting and sanding.
On the other hand, that's the only thing remaining with the wiring, so I'm pleased.

>>15722429
I made it 9 keys for Pop'n, Dj Max Trilogy 8K and maybe DJ Max P3 6.2T. Will probably make a seperate Pop'n con. sometime in the future.

>>15722433
Damn that is super clean. Leaving it white or gonna put an overlay? Also what's the dimensions?

>>15722476
Going to paint it matte white with shiny (spray) lacquer on top. Don't wanna do overlay now since I doubt it would stay intact without acrylic cover and I don't have access to a laser cutter. All the holes are drilled&filed in, and I really don't want to do that to acrylic. Too brittle.
The dimensions are 240X440 mm, though a better one would be 240X460, since now my encoders came too close to the corners and I had to finagle a bit with the corners of the actual box in order to fit it all in. Oh well. Live and learn.
If you're looking to build one, I suggest looking into the bonkler guide of sdvx controller builds, it does a good general walkthrough of the process.

>>15722562
Thanks for the tip. I'm building an SDVX after I finish my IIDX, pic related. I'm using plexi for the button panels. You can drill holes reliably if you use a step drill bit. As for square holes for buttons, I'm drilling pilot holes and using a friend's jigsaw with a high TPI blade. As long as you're careful and practice on a bit of scrap acrylic first, it can be done.

>sell mangoes at weeaboo convention
>in just 10 minutes earned 90% of the price for a Pop'n dao

Good thing i didn't throw it away

>>15722728
Mangos are ok but a little too sweet for me

>>15722705
Man, that looks sweet as hell. Now I really want to have an overlay too...
I guess I'll look into it when I've finished the controller and played a bit with it.
Either way, post your finished controller when it's ready.
Btw, how do you make the turntable assembly? I've been interested in making an IIDX controller too, but can't really figure out the best way to make the turntable. Do you have it on a bearing and then just relay the rotation to an encoder, or do you have it sitting directly on an encoder?

>>15722765
I'm going to try making the TT by sandwiching turntable felt between two acrylic discs, and attaching that to an encoder knob, probably with epoxy.

>>15722289

Where'd you get those knobs? After all the upgrades to my SVES5, I realized I'm only two knobs and a board away from having a second controller.

Saving Grace (pun not intended)

Aw yeah, my USKOC gets here soon; got it for $40. Can't wait to play some Empress with it.

If I can get a decent USB adapter as well, I'm pretty much set for awhile.

>>15721991
I want to play it but I don't have a dance mat nor time to train my skills.

Anyway, what's the best site for download songs for it?

>inb4 play with keyboard
No.

>>15722040
My SDVX controller is almost as ghetto as it gets, 7 beatmania buttons in a heavy as fuck wooden box with arduino leonardo glued inside and wires just soldered onto connectors.The only slightly above trash component is chinese 600ppr encoders only because bourns from mouser weren't much cheaper due to shipping cost. I'm considering getting omrons or 60x60 BTs upgrade but it's too expensive due to shipping so I'm hesitant since I'm a scrub anyways.

Damn, I wonder if you're that guy who ebaysniped that from me. Missed out on that one so instead I paid $70 for the controller and an early PS2 game, which is ok I guess. Just need to get a PS2 now...

I did also buy the adapter someone recommended in the last thread, but it doesn't come with the drivers. So anticipate me asking a ton of questions regarding how to set it up when the stuff gets here lol

Let's have the same retard chart all USAO songs and make them incredibly shit to play how does that sound

>>15722244
This reminds me of a reacurring dream I have, where I go to a local arcade and finally fin a IIDX cab. But the owner has fighting game buttons or some other weird button configuration that makes the entire machine pointless aND unplayable. Anyone else have dreams like this?

>>15724175
Nah, I bought it from somebody in a IRC channel I frequent; guy had been trying to sell it for at least year for the same price, but never had any takers despite there not being anything wrong with it outside of some worn rubber feet on the bottom.

>>15722289
Anon, I think I have to be the one to tell you.

That's not how those buttons work. You're attaching them wrong.

Do the following:

>>15724928
Yea, I know they're meant to be flush mounted. I just did it like that because I was lazy and it's a prototype.

>>15723127
Is there someone else I can send my amazing Cindy pics to in the interim?

>>15724947
corin or sherlok on sows' irc

they will probably print it out and cum on it

I just want a full size Project Diva arcade controller for PS4

>>15724782
Will do!
The problem is finding a quality adapter with as little latency as possible.

In any case I'm sure the PS2 ports should hold me over for awhile

Corin confirmed, they're not accepting Cindy art at the moment. Seems Sherlok stepped down. Art invites will be back up sometime soon.

>>15725021
not the same guy, but I use a Pelican PS2/PS3 converter I got off ebay. I just started and am getting As and AAs easily, so it seems fine. Using a jkoc though.

>>15725068
See the problem is that USKOCs have a lower polling rate compared to JKOCs, so adapter latency is particularly important for them. Button quality is at least better apparently.

why can't you buy a different "style of background" with controllers from the us shiphouse? is it really hard to replace or somethin? i wanna buy an fp7 from the us storehouse but i really want to have a different color

That's probably the easiest thing to replace, just use some thin cardstock or something to make a cool underlay

>Cumming on fanart, epic! xD

Not trying to start anything but is all of the community this tryhard or it's just a few degenerates?

>>15725515
i never said it was epic but it's something they've done before

>>15725256
US storehouse is just a repository for controllers already built at the main facility in china. All they do is shipping.

I just started playing gravity wars. What is the point of the cards?

>>15725691
Nothing, unless you grind a PUR, as they help you complete missions faster.

Also I guess you could trade the duplicates with people or something.

I don't know, I hardly play AC.

>>15725691
There is no point to the non-PUR cards. The PUR cards give you in-game navigator characters that also help you do more damage in the story mode boss battles.

>>15725560
i realize that, but they allow you to buy replacement parts so i was just wondering why they wont let you buy a replacement faceplate thing

Expect the psun replacement this week, and Copula shortly after. Dunno why n-1 is being fudged, and neither do I care. Get your ratio ready.

You better not be tricking me anon
Is lapistoria going to be supported with this magical psun update???

>>15725906
I thought data was only released 6 months after the newest version?

>>15725942
Yes, Lapistoria was the main thing holding it back during the private beta, but now that the functionality is satisfactory, we're only a few optimizations away from release.

>>15725969

So did I.

>>15725986
will it use existing pcbids/score data/etc. or will there be new stuff?

why should we believe you?

How do IIDX AC turntables differ from the one in a us koc?

I've been running a us koc for a while now and am considering either getting a dao or building my own. My biggest pet peeve is that the koc turntable scrolls through the menu very quickly, while at the arcade it seems to have acceleration.

>>15726020
The KOCs send turntable input digitally, from what I understand - not analog.

>>15725767
That's because they have said parts in the US Storehouse too, they're not going to print out something that you can easily print out yourself just because you're too lazy to use a template and do it yourself.

that 6dan feel when you fail the safari
at least i passed ubertreffen this time

>>15726038
afaik AC turntables aren't analog either, but rather work like a Dao where they just use an optical sensor and a gear.

>>15726103
Is it possible to use that kind of a setup on a homemade controller?

Also, any resources on homemade controllers in general? The pastebin is kinda lacking.

>>15726090
no, they ship the parts from china?

>>15726136
I don't know how easy or hard it would be to use optical sensors on a homemade controller, you could try maybe buying a Dao controller board with the TT assembly and making the rest of the controller yourself, alternatively you could try making a gear out of cardboard or something and using a USB mouse as sensor.

>>15726273
ah i thought you meant the controllers that come with upgrade parts, they don't let you buy them on US storehouse controller or sell them separately because.. well.. would you really pay shipping for a piece of paper?

>>15726136
You can buy optical encoders and sensors/rings if you'd like

You can also ghettorig a spinning platter to an old optical mouse.

I've been playing since 2010 and normally play 13s-16s, hardest song I've passed would be Posession ESP with a B (A scale). I've SDG'd some old-scale 7s, but never gotten a AAA.

>>15727756
>Synchronized Love
Also one of my favorites. One of my go-to songs to play at the arcade in my area.

Did you get to experience having a large scene for DDR when you started that early?

I remember being very little around that time, and my parents took me to the same arcade I go to play now, and I would see 20-something year olds playing no-bar freestyle, and I thought it was the neatest shit. That's what drew me; I didn't care about any other video game in the arcade. Even though I didn't actually start playing until years later.

Shame I never got to experience DDR when it's popularity was at its peak, but I'm more than grateful when the occasional player does show up to play versus.

Any fond memories of when you got into it?

>>15728545
>Did you get to experience having a large scene for DDR when you started that early?
Yeah, it was fantastic. The games were so popular and there'd always be people watching you play in the arcade. That said, I'm only 20 now so I was a young child at the time as well. I didn't like, make friends with other players.

>Any fond memories of when you got into it?
The launch of DDR Max was just mindblowing. It was such an enormous leap forward for the series.

Grab ALL the freeleech shit or just seed 1 so you can trade credit for ratio. The former is probably more hassle than it's worth honestly, but it's faster (especially when you combine the two).

And as >>15730612 said, grab popular torrents early. I got ~10GB from just one album recently.

Nice, since playing some Taiko on 3DS I've looked into the controllers for maybe using on emulators but could do Wii U... just don't sit in front of my Wii U often.

Speaking of Taiko, anyone happen to play TnT+ on iOS and have songs from the last year or so?

I'm looking for .dat files from the games "Songs" folder when you look at the App with say iFunbox.

Those files contain the audio info and what I'm after most all the charting, I have around 256 songs but nothing past 2014 :(

Don't believe those .dat files would give me access to the songs in-game which is fine, not after that, just a bitch to find them, since you know... if you can't pirate them who is going to upload them >.<

About three weeks ago, I came to this board for the first time and posted in the rhythm game thread, completely unironically, "hi, I'm new! Do you guys like osu?"

Today, I bought my first iidx controller and am actively trying to convince my friends to switch from osu!mania to LR2.

Whatever you're doing over here, it's effective.

I think I remember talking to you.
Good luck. 1p or 2p?

>>15734685
All of them are good

Triple Counter and Zephyranthes are both fun on Jubeat

>>15734986
Thank you! And I decided on 1p since it seems more common and I'm right handed. Time to actually learn how to scratch though...

>>15734982
Thanks, I update it weekly

>>15734883
Ugh, so many good stuff, so hard to decide.
Trash like vocaloids will win tho

>>15734974
I am so tempted to just buy one of those controllers as well. Recently switched over to LR2 myself, but I just can't find a comfortable key for scratching, since I'm used to using my left thumb for the middle lane and I prefer the scratch lane on the left.
Not sure if it would fix the problem though.

>>15735090
>middle lane

if you mean key 4, you should be using your right hand for that, assuming 1P.

>>15735095
Yeah, I'm trying to force myself to learn doing that, but it just doesn't feel as natural as using my left thumb.
But I guess that's just a matter of practice though.

>>15735108
Are you using some retarded straight-line key setup like SDF Space JKL?

Try using something that at least approximates the IIDX layout.

>>15735130
Yep.
ZSXDCF seems too cramped to be comfortable.

>>15735149
You could try spacing it out a bit, so something like zectbum or whatever.

Featured Album, game soundtracks and anything with the big BEMANI artists (Camellia, kors k, Ryu etc.) is usually a pretty safe bet. Aside from that, just stuff with a decent number of leechers.

>>15735665
grab new bemani OSTs/albums when they appear (copula vol 2 and new sota album release in october)

What's the best place to try and get a KASC for IIDX? I used to have one a long time ago and sold it on ebay years ago. Have had beatmania controller as a saved ebay search for a long time but never saw one come back up for sale.

Is there any reason to even play any songs pre lincle? I got into iidx because of prim and nanahira and the rest just seems to be boring dumb shit

>>15737448
kill yourself

>>15737448
I generally don't like pre-happy sky charts, half of red is ok, but a lot of those old charts are just insanely bullshit/hard/unfun.
There are exceptions of course, like Abyss, V, etc

>>15737561
Pretty much how I feel. There's like a couple standouts here and there but other than the usual bemani staples, I can't stand most of old iidx.

I can't play mermaid girl without singing this in my head anymore

>>15737448

Maybe it's because I started on 3rd style, and fucking love almost every song on that style, but i can't relate to any of you kiddies who joined during or after Resort Anthem. Really GOLD is the last one that had a truly killer soundtrack. The old IIDX styles had excellent music.

If you seriously think it's all dumb shit then you should probably be playing SDVX instead of IIDX for the song choices alone cause you probably have an IOSYS boner.

>>15740240
Why did Osu get so big anyway?

>>15740250
it's accessible, in english, and lets you make your own charts with pirated music from whatever

basically it's extremely easy for random weebs to get into because they don't want to invest the energy into playing actually decent rhythm games

>>15740192
because it sucks

it's a mishmash of content and ideas stolen from other sources and poorly implemented. the charts are shitty. things like timing aren't standardized.

>Anybody have the new Virgoo IIDX controller?
yes
>How is the turntable compared to Dao's?
i've never used a dao but what I can say is that the portabledx turntable is really nice, it's a little bit stiff (which is actually nice for pushing it multiple times in the same direction) but I can still activate it with just my pinky and it rotates very smoothly. the biggest downside is the top being smooth plastic, but it's still grippy enough unless my hands are exceptionally sweaty

is sorting by level the best way to pick songs

>>15741979
yes except for when they're misrated like all of the old another charts (beginner mode ranges from 1-3, i was the one another is a 3, if you put that chart in front of a beginner they might quit the game then and there)

>>15741979
No because then you will stumble into shitty old songs with shitty charts

>>15740192
The community there is an embarassment.

The only reason I use it for charting taiko is because I have yet to learn how to do that with Jiro

>>15741840

>>15742150
As much as everyone hates osu, I can and will admit one thing - the editor is excellent and I wish we could take just the code from the editor and modify it to create charts for SM/LR2/Jiro

But,with the recent update,ended up touching it again and it's bretty gud now.Also helped that I had a bro teach me the ropes with the update.Graficas are a nice touch,and the UI was vastly improved.So it's worth checking out if any anon reading this has been hesitant

>>15743380
Just keep going at it anon

if you want some pretty easy charts,start up with the earlier DM mixes,DM3-8 has a ton of fun shit that teaches you the basics of Expert/Master level play.

Play songs like DIAMONDS,Jet World,and Dragon Blade to get a feel for rhythm,speed,and fills

>>15743404

>>15743425

>Where you at right now anon?

Central Indiana. There's a Round 1 like 3.5 hours away near Chicago and Gatchapon 3 hours away in Columbus.

I don't know if I want to drive that far. And I believe neither has Museca.

>>15743444
MUSECA will be a staple soon enough at all R1's by december,that's the rumor anyway

anon,the drive to my closest R1 is always 2.5-4 hours thanks to LA traffic,and it's ALWAYS worth it.Just do it once or twice to see if it's worth it to you.

You can also call and ask for MUSECA.Sunnyvale R1 just opened up and they took one of PHM's cabinets,so they're down to 2 cabs.They also took 2 SDVX cabs along with a few ticket games.If you bother management enough,they might transfer some shit over

>>15743444
R1 SSM has Museca.

Leave at 2PM, arrive when eamuse downtime is over. Play until 2AM. I'd say it's worth it to do that at least once.

>>15743490

Truth time, though, I'm a sheltered little pussy and I'm honestly afraid to go anywhere near Chicago. Columbus I hear is no walk in the park either.

Also, there may or may not be another, more embarrassing reason I don't want to go to these places.

>>15743583
Listen anon

Rhythm game players are all friendly as fuck

Out of the 13 or so years playing everything from DDR and ReRave to SDVX and GITADORA,I've never met someone that wasn't able to enjoy themselves in a public place with like minded people around them

Just do basic shit like shower and grooming,wear deodorant if you're going plan on sweating,and always say hello to the other players around you.You'll make friends just by saying hi and talking about the game that you're in line to play

>>15743622
Not that anon
D-Does this count for Japan too? I'm going next year and understand the language alright

>>15743631
Never been to Japan,but playing at PHM you get a mixed bag of local english speaking asians,and people who only know Japanese/Mandarin

I know enough of both to carry on a basic conversation and talk about the games themselves.I butcher the languages to all hell but it's enough to congratulate them or answer questions when they have them.

But that's here in the US,US culture is a lot more open and friendlier than our asian brethren.A friend just came back from a few weeks in Tokyo and he did it all,not just vidya but he did most of the shit that Japan has to offer.But since we're both really big into rhythm games,he explained that it didn't matter what game he was playing,DDR,Chunithim,MaiMai,SDVX,GC,EVERYONE kept to themselves and only after playing really well at a particular game,did they do something small like a golf clap.

The rest of the time,everyone would just be on their phones texting,playing on apps,and basically keeping to themselves.I honestly can't fathom it since I'm so used to talking it up with my rhythmbros.

>>15743631
People keep to themselves in Japan.

Just stand in line and wait your turn and you'll be fine. The guy behind you will probably be texting or something.

Bloomingdale is nothing like Chicago. There really isn't much to be worried about.

>>15743622

Social anxiety wasn't that other reason, if that's what you're guessing. I'd have no trouble mingling with other rhythm gamers.

With the 5 Taiko games on wii, you've got a pretty decent playlist in size. Besides, most osu charts are just not fun and/or stupid as hell. You can find taikojiro simfiles for almost every official chart just by googling, but the annoying part is that you'll have to download them one by one. However, I think there are some torrents of packs for taikojiro on sows if you are lazy and got ratio to spend.

If you want to stay with osu!, a few of the official charts have been converted (aquabluu etc), so you could also do that, but you are missing on a lot of content imo.

Also, playing on wii's got the advantage of having the dojo mode to complete, training mode to rewind in the middle of a song to train a difficult part, boss songs, skins and every other gimmick that makes playing the game plain fun altogether. Of course, if you are only interested in the core gameplay, then I recommend taikojiro foremost, even though the setup is kind of a pain.

It's per song

>>15744408

FPS has a smaller turntable and overall smaller form factor.

The FP7 has a smaller-than-arcade turntable but much closer.

They're both arcade height and distance from the keys though.

Other than that they both have exactly the same features and can be equipped with the same buttons/switches.

Oh yeah, also, the FPS, you can actually adjust it to JKOC distance from buttons. so if you're coming off a JKOC that might be nice.

>>15744438

Well then who's top 10 on Mei?

>>15744471
Thanks, and this'll be my first controller. I've played in the arcades a few times and need to git gud desperately.

>>15744559

Then I'd go FP7 if price isn't an issue.

Also, get the stock switches and buy 50g Omrons elsewhere and install them yourself.

I'm going to Chicago in October for the League worlds quarterfinals and I'm trying to figure out how I'm gonna drag my friends to the R1 near there after the tournament

>>15744594
Is there information anywhere that could teach me how to do that? I'd like to learn how to do this kind of shit but I have no prior knowledge to work with and no idea where to start.

>>15744533

I posted that I can't see the top ranker scores because I don't have pay for the eamuse premium service, I want to know these things too

>>15744671

Oh, shit. Well you said you like looking at leaderboards like it was something you were currently doing. Not something that you want to be doing.

I, too, have thought about doing that.

>>15744651

What, buying them or replacing them? Buying them all you need to know is the part number which is D2MV-01-1C3. Just shop around and find the best price.

I use Mauser because they have great customer service.

Also, this video should tell you everything you need to know.

>>15744716
Replacing them, and thanks, I'll look into it. Since I don't know much about the mechanics, what're the benefits of the upgrades?

>>15744730

50g is true to the arcade. You'll know immediately when you get it and it's got 15g Honeywells. They feel like shit.

>>15744740
Alright, thanks a bunch. I can't wait to get into it.

>>15744716
Can I replace my rainbow rbc2+ switches like this?

>>15744796

Yes, all these controllers use the same holders.

Only difference would be with Sanwas but they use practically identical holders show it's a similar process.

>>15744821
Alrighty, ty
Debating between getting new switches for my 2dx controller or my pop'n controller rn

i've been playing through the older styles and paranoia max has some really fun charts

>>15745034

I believe Paranoia Max was one of the first (if not the only) 6s I cleared on BMUS.

>>15743371
>>15743385
it's so much fun

>>15743404
just like move to california we have almost every rhythm game that you can play anywhere in the US

why would you wanna play jubeat though that game sucks dick

casual mobile game made for women and kids, just like reflec beat

>>15744189
andrew calm down they're mostly nice people
reflec beat is still a meme game

>>15745119

I have to choose between freedom and rhythm games?

Fuck, tough call.

Are there any other lower-level scratch charts like Beach Side Bunny and Long Train Running SP Normal? They're so much fun.

>>15745482
Digitank System, Naughty Girl @ Queen's Palace, Watch Out Pt.2, literally every Mass Mad Ism Normal there is

My current IIDX weakness that I need to work on are scratching, streams of chords with 3 or more notes, and my timing on 16th note streams.

So basically, my weakness is the whole game.

What does a museca cabinet cost? How many grand?

>>15745944

I'd guess 8-10k, merely due to how new it is.

What PCB would one need for a SDVX controller?

>>15745944
There's a guy that buys shit from Thailand and resells here in the states

He offered a used Museca cabinet a while back but the fucker wanted 12k used with no pictures provided or anything,fuckers like him are just as bad as the guy that runs Tokyo Attack!
