Idea for custome files

[Dreamcube017]

I just had this really idea for a build your own songs in IIDX thing. Annother reason why I wish I knew how to program.

It'll probably go nowhere, but here it is.

You know how they have those PS2 music generators where you put loops together?
Well what if there was something where it was just like that? You put loops together, but each loop comes with a small note chart. So then when you put all your loops together, TADA! a IIDX song has been biult. It would already have diffeent difficulty levels because each loop would have and easy, medium, and hard version of it's note chart. An [A] song would just be all the notes from all the loop combined. Well, that's my lala-land idea. If I could, I'd make an engine that could hold the loops, make it so you could build them, Then you could just export it as a normal BMS file with the key sounds. Darn, I'll need to learn some heavy programming to do this... Anyone got any comments?

do it an i <3 you

Well if someone knows how to make basic engines, it wouldn't be that hard. I'm still in baby days of programmig so yeah. But the engine would need to be able to do is take a bunch of small BMS files and put be able to combined them. That's about it. The loops, anyone can make in BMS creator or something. All the program would need to do is be able to play the small BMS files and then merge them into one large file according to how the user puts them together. If anyone here is experianced in writing small programs, then it would be great if you could help. It's simple, I just am not sure of the means of doing it. Just take a bunch of small files, run them, let the user arrange them how they want, then merge them in that way. Tada, your own IIDX file... Well, it can get more complex, but lets just start with that.

Theory been done in DDR via ITG PS2 disc.
Its called hacking a hack.
Suggest you investigate that disc and look for post about this and see if theres anymeans to do the transition on your theory.
Doing it to IIDX PS2 disc is a completly diffrent story since ALOT of language conversion and correct placement is needed then compression and Blah Blah Blah.
IIDX has not been done though but in theory its possible.
Thats all I can say though.

Well I wasn't speaking on the PS2 IIDX games. Oh, and it wouldn't be too much of a language problem. Just use the USA version of the game and see if it works there.

But anyhow, I'm aware of the ITG PS2 hack. I've tried it and ALMOST got it. I wan't really talking about using this on the PS2 as that would be extremly hard to do. I just meant on computer. I mentioned the PS2 music genorators because that's how most of them work.
