Why are so many people bashing my Red XIII graphics?
Gee, I hope I don't get this much flak with my DDR entry :P

Thanks for the feedback will-i-am - the avis were taken from the same website that produces the official avis used in ITG, digitaljuice.com

Anyway, really glad you enjoyed my entry - for the record, my faves are probably Kiss Me, Gradation and A New Ray of Light (in no particular order )

I don't know what you guys are talking about, Clear Blue Water (expert anyway) is really horrible, stolen or not.

So... who actually played the double charts? I think the ones that had them were mine (Breathe), Emerald Sword, Devestation, and Satellite. Emerald Sword DX was wicked hard, but pretty good. Devestation was way better than the single chart. Satellite was kinda bad, but I don't really blame the stepchart artist since there's not a lot going on rhythmically during the entirety of the song.

Am I dumb, or does Cheap Trick Kinda Girl say "I fool ya anyday" and not "I ooh-ya-ay-ee-ay?"

I thought Clear Blue Water was merely released elsewhere, not actually stolen. I seem to remember it being credited to the same person on Stepmania.com as the person who entered it here.

And yeah, I assumed that was how the lyrics in CTKG went too. I didn't actually see the LRC file in action because I was testing everything out in an ITG theme which doesn't show them.

In regards to Pokecapn's review of my simfile, thanks for the perfect score, but your comments about ITG's stepcharts being over-the-top hard, you should try some of the expert 9's, I modeled a lot of my file after Ride the Bass, My Life is so Crazy, and This is Rock and Roll.

Thanks for the feedback everyone, but Don't Cha is rating alot lower than I had anticipated. I didn't mean for there to be so much repitition in the steps when I made them. Well, ok I kinda meant it. You see, the [X] steps were originally a 9, but it seemed too tough to be a 9 to me, and so at the last minute I made it a 10. If I had actually meant it to be a 10 all along, then the steps would be everywhere. Alot of the 1/16's runs and streams were added shortly after I decided to make it a 10, and some of the runs were actually meant to be rolls, but I don't have a version of Step that can support them, so I made them 1/16's. I wanted for some of the steps to be loosely based off of songs like My Favourite Game and So Deep. I don't ever play Lemmings On The Run, so I don't know the steps to that. If there are any similarites, they're unintentional. =P

Hard was supposed to be easier than [X], so I understand if I made it too simple and the like. The [H] steps are actually based off of an unreleased simfile I have right here: The original Don't Cha. I meant to release it after I submitted the RRHF Remix to OSC, but I never got around to it. XP

The GFX. I personally thought they fit really well. I mean, yeah, they're kinda simple, but I'm not that great in the GFX department yet, so I worked with my abilities and tried made something that would fit and look good, not something that would look ugly. I don't exactly have any pictures of hot girls, so I used...Zig Zag. Yeah, I know, Furry, but hey, what else do you expect from someone who has a character from Furcadia as their avatar? XD

Besides, she's like, really hot. =3

Now, to directly ask someone, Discovolante, what exactly did you mean by the song ending abruptly? I tried not to make that so, and it doesn't seem to end all of a sudden to me. =/


In closing, thanks again for the feedback, and I pray that you like my DDR entry more. It should be easily recognizable if you've ever seen RENT, and if you haven't heard it yet, well you're in for a treat. =)

P.S. Also, I made some Edit steps in my DDR Entry, they're Solo Steps. If you would, please tell me how I did on them as well as the other steps. They're my first Solo Steps, and I would like to know how I did.

New files tested tonight:

Asteroid - Expert
Bad Boy - Expert
Devastation - Expert
A Voice Spoke To Me - Expert
A New Ray of Light - Hard
Cheap Trick Kinda Girl - Expert
Emerald Sword - Hard
Speedy Cat - Hard
Have You Never Been Mellow - Hard

Videos are up in the first post of the SM machine testing thread.

//Personal opinions:

Speedy Cat - Too hand-jump happy for my liking (Rolls, apparently too, they didn't work for me)

Asteroid - I didn't think a 12 could be anything near fun, though it was a relatively light 12, or maybe just my style, I don't know, good enough for me anyway.

A Voice Spoke To Me - Hmmm, not as bad as you had it pumped up to be, really. If I had known it was going to go all Bloodrush on my ass, I would have used vivid/solo/whatever, I generally prefer flat as long as there's no sigificantly challenging slowdown section. (This was a sight-read after all) I'll try it again if you want though, I know I definitely have no major problems with the rest of the song except for the Bloodrush section.

Cheap Trick Kinda Girl - I was a little disappointed with the Expert steps...I know they go with the music more or less, they just didn't appeal to me that much, especially the mine/hand stuff in the middle...especially at the end, you have to recover REALLY fast not to hit a bunch more mines/miss stuff.

As I commented already in this thread to someone else, no it doesn't say that - granted the first part does sound a bit like "I fool ya", but the ending isn't a word to my ears (or my lyrics source for that matter, which didn't even list the line at all...)

To pokecapn:

Your review for the songs you reviewed should totally be thrown out.
FIRSTLY I do test my songs on pad before I release them. I can do the steps on pad, so why can't you? Is it my fault? NO. So, don't say "bashing your arm on a keyboard" when you don't even know. kthnx.

To others, THANK YOU for CONSTRUCTIVE critisim even though I haven't done a simfile in over a year. If my reviews for my DDR entry are bad, then I will definately stick away from simming, but I think you'll all be surprised of them on how well formed they are compared to anything else I've ever done. Thanks.

I'm named after a major Pokémon strategy website. On purpose. My Virtual Visions avatar was Brendan from Ruby/Sapphire. My OSC5 partner's name goes without saying.

Outside of one small extra, tell me how much Pokémon you see in our entry come B2.

dsfargeg, er, tytiger: the cut of the song definitely ends abruptly. it just feels wrong. not modern girl wrong, but still not good.

i'll have the second half of my reviews up later. currently my home internet died, and that's where the simfiles are. -_- sup wi-fi.
