Widescreen+stepmania=GAY!

Elemenopee · 01-27-2008, 07:46 PM

is there a way where i can play 4:3 on my 16:10 monitor IN FULLSCREEN MODE. When i play windowed it lags ALOT. It'll say it's running at 120 fps but it looks like 20fps.

I use 1440x900 on my 16:10 and it's perfectly fine

and if i choose to i can use 1280x1024 on it and it's also fine...

what monitor do you have and have you tried reinstalling?
its possible you edited the .ini wrong

of course it's stretched really bad.

just use a version that supports widescreen properly (4.0 does)

other versions can work too but it takes more work (some ini edit, I don't care to look right now)

I believe there are resolution settings for the game that can accommodate widescreen monitors, I have one but I play in windowed mode.

Most of 4.0's major glitches were fixed days ago.
The widescreen works fine, you just need to tweak the settings and make sure your monitor supports it.

well if it was only days ago excuse my lack of keeping updated

so, what is still broken? do oni courses work? do mod-scripted nonstops work? freeze rolls? using random with folders closed? using roulette?

It's also not that hard to check on the forums and the update read me , whats fixed.

also you can download the latest release of 4 there.
also, most problems aren't fixed if no one reports them.

i'll be honest; i don't play stepmania like ever. i use it to write simfiles and that's about it. i don't read stepmania's forums because i see no reason to, and the only reason i read here/post here is because i know how 3.9 works pretty well.

i asked a question that i'm sure you could answer but are choosing not to.

ALSO the last time i tried to download 4.0 it didn't work at all so yeah, you'll have to excuse me if i expected it to be working again

Decide · 01-28-2008, 05:42 PM

My bad for not answering your question, but AJ should know all the fixes. I just know from word that their supposdly fixed.
I never said 3.9 is bad. 4.0 just supports the feature of widescreen

I'll host the newest 4.0 build sometime later if you mean by not working as in you can't install it.If you mean as in the bugs and glitches I'd pm AJ about this, since he knows alot more about this then me, since he does work on stepmania anyways.

Sorry of i didn't answer your question

i'll try to better next time. I just wish more people looked into their question and problem more before posting it on the forums

Most of that crap works fine in 4, some were fixed several months ago.

I think solo doesn't work though, I'd need to check again (pretty sure it was a noteskin issue).

edit - @Decide: the only thing fixed in the last couple days was an SMO bug.

working fine here
