Awesome Takuya, do the animations bewteen changing the selected mode work? Also you might wanna change "TUTORIAL" to "STARTER" if you can, as that is the modes name in the Arcade version.

Thanks for the torrent

First, Starter mode will be named Tutorial until the Starter graphic will be available for the JP release (I hope that JP CS call that mode Starter like the AC does).

Second, name modes and SM modes:
Tutorial/Starter = Standard
Standard = Standard
Battle = Battle/Rave/Magic Dance
Course = for now it's Challenge Mode, but I'm implementing a selector mode to choose between life bar (nonstop) and battery (challenge). This will be the way to select the course style.
Endless = Endless

There's no way to build a Starter Mode using SM3.9 or 3.9+, that's why I use the standard mode.

True...if it is anything like "Beginner Mode" from DDR SN2 Arcade, then it will just be a shorten songlist of "easy" songs, even though they can be played on any difficulty.

And yeah I dont think there's a way to do that in StepMania.

omg Rev. 2.0 like Christmas gift ;D

Wish this ver. has almost all of the bugs corrected =)}

Themes I am waiting: DDR X Rev. 2.0 and DDR SN bt3}

continue with the good job also.. for Rev. 2.0 you should complete the announcer

[TakuyaMAXX]

The development chart is only for the DDR X theme... arrows and announcers won't be updated yet and both (arrows and announcers) will be updated as soon as I can.

Please don't ask for massive update requirements... this is not my 24 hrs job.

[neo_meo]

so, the rev 2.0 will only consist of better theme with bugs corrected?

[jesaltori]

Awesome takuya , keep going this work ,and i think it will be a nice present for all that like your themes Thanks .

[TakuyaMAXX]

About the DDRX announcer and arrows updates... they will going to take the same time as my usual announcer updates.... here's two examples:
DDRSN Announcer, which had no updates since the very first release. Other example is DDREXTREME announcer, that had years waiting for an update.

So don't ask or insist about X's announcer or arrows update. Now I'm working on the themes.

So far, so good with this revision, Good Work Takuya and take your time as you go along

[lestat_13_07]

the arrows and announcer for X theme are bearable, takuya..

we're not forcing you finish all that..

just do what you can, we can all wait here..

keep up the good work!



the new page is awesome, btw..

[TakuyaMAXX]

Thanks for your support pals, I'm working hard to finish to add the last screen to the theme, fixing almost all bugs and things like that. The game play screen was changed to match the AC one; several items were relocated to match the AC screen look.

As usual, the release day you'll learn about the changes done.

PD:
If you take a look to the beta tester AC's Select Mode screen, you'll find that the Endless mode was available labeled under construction. This one differ from the latest AC snapshots available from konami's site, but if you look those screenshots and compare them to youtube's videos, then you'll find some differences.

So.... who can assure that those shots were taken from the official release?... maybe they were taken from a beta version of the game before the test release (as usual game companies does).... no one can assure that. I'll continue waiting until the release comes.
