[Theme][SM4.0] Dance With Intensity [WIP]

[AJ 187]

So yes, one of my many SM4 theming projects is a recreation of Dance With Intensity. I considered posting it here without any explanation, but that would possibly get me in trouble over the new rules.

Since SM4 has moved to Lua, this means I can accurately recreate some effects, such as the Max Combo number glowing on a full combo and the score meter going up directly as opposed to rolling numbers like StepMania does.

Screenshots of my current progress (you can see what needs to be changed):









The most current info will always be available at the official theme site, but I'll try keeping you guys updated.

Oh, and there will be a special version for SM players since this tries to duplicate DWI, right down to the behavior where songs with 0 gap start immediately. It will probably be called Step With Intensity (or DWI+) and also include all of the mods you're used to, as well as some other stuff.

This alone makes me want to re-install SM for reminiscence.

Haha, I was wondering when this would get a thread. Brilliance.

Wow. To tell you the truth. I have never downloaded SM 4.0. But this theme here makes me want to download the 4.0 version.

Very lovely theme. And they say that the coding is more complex and difficult in 4.0. So I give you kudos for taking the time to do it.

[ramyishappy12]

are you planning to do to a customized SM4 game with the songs and theme ? bc i want it to be jus like how beware made it for DDR Extreme. other than that i welcome back Dance With Intensity.

You've made me feel very old now...I remember getting DWI at first and thinking it was the dog's bollocks. Thanks for being able to recreate that awesomeness in SM.

[Phallen]

Oh the memories. Keep up the good work.

EDIT: "Removed stupid suggestion that was already there because I'm lazy and didn't read"

Another quality piece from AJ.

Stupid question, can (and will) you make the easier/harder actions the same as DWI in 4.0? For example, will you only need a single down tap to go to Heavy from Standard?

[shakesoda]

that's easy to do.

been there, done that thanks to how awesome SM4 is with the CodeDetector.

The Challenge icon also shows up on the banner if a song has challenge steps.

Last thing I've changed so far is the judgment animations, which look close enough for now. The fine details will come at a later stage, probably after a public beta and before final release. Assuming this gets released.

What does the CodeDetector do?

And I really wish I can figure out how to create the Select Profile screen!
