SM Keysounds...

So, since SM4 has working keysounds who's going to be the first to make a proper, keysounded, stepmania style file?

This could breath all new life into stepfile creation.

Also, please discuss the idea of this. Where could this lead us as a community?

I may have a go at some, but it's not exactly easy.

At least the format is like 100x easier than BMS.

Agreed. I really want to see how IIDX songs translate over to DDR in terms of keysounded stepping... MAX 300 Hyper anybody?

No no no...

We need to go far BEYOND just having IIDX songs with DDR steps.

We need people actually either A: writing music and making them into keysounded SM files (OMG SM of Fighters!) or B: cutting up songs and doing it that way.

Of course there should b more.... IIDX songs with keysounded steps is a way to start making use o the features however.

Ehh... I guess but people seem to be far too reliant on IIDX for simfiles.

meh... for me, I like the way some of the songs sound in IIDX > DDR... for example, I like the sound of the IIDX and Pop'n cut of Twinbee ~Generation X~ over the DDR EXTREME version but I digress.

How do I go about making keysounded steps in SM?

I agree that IIDX and Pop'n have much better music but there's so much music out there for people to use.

One way you could go about making files is to take a BMS creator and figure out what keys map to what arrows in SM and make a file accordingly.
