Question about SSRMax

[jediluc]

I downloaded it as a replacement when Be-Pachi broke.. I like the interface and I would say it's the better sim but for one problem - it doesn't seem to read the song files properly.

I play Under The Sky in Be-Pachi, and I hear vocals, everything alright, but in SSRMax I'm only hearing keys I play. What's wrong?

I think it's because your background sound is a OGG file and SSRMAx is not compatible with this audiofile.
So just convert this file in WAV and change too the line in your BME file.

Yup yup. It's the O-G-G! Convert it plox and it should work =)
If you need something to convert it. Try using Audacity.

i have a similar problem where it delays the bg music and makes the keys off sync with the bg which makes it sound awful and unplayable any idea why it does it?

Like they both said, the "base" track (its named "01" usually) is an OGG file and SSRMAX can't read it, so you need to change it to a WAV file. I would use this convertor found on Sherl0k's old filefront page. Just click and drag that OGG file to that converter and BAM, done.

This happens to me a lot on SSRMAX for some songs like Scorpion Fire, I never got it to work properly toward the end of the song no matter how hard I try, but for songs in general when this happens try to recache your songs, if that doesn't work try restarting your computer and then recache. That usually fixes the problem. Sometimes with me SSRMAX will stop taking newly cached songs and won't let me play them, so I just need to start a second SSRMAX program (redownloaded) which ends up replacing my first SSRMAX.

Yeah, SSRMAX still has some flaws, but aside from LR its all we got.

I've had a problem similar to that with Scorpion Fire, when the song just reaches the last part, the notes freeze up. The BG music still plays, but the notes are stuck. Any suggestions?

This ALWAYS HAPPENS TO ME. I can't seem to get it working no matter how hard I try. I thought it might have to do with their being a video for it when you download that it is the only difference I found from my other KS files that work fine.
I think I have tried everything I could without manually manipulating the chart in notepad (cause I have no idea what to do when it comes down that stuff). Sometimes when I play it gets about 5 seconds into the song and shows the result screen like I beat it. I really have no idea when it comes down to Scorpion Fire.

edit: POST 100!!

Yup thats what happens. I can't find a way to fix it. It drives me crazy. After the first two notes its skips all the way to the results screen.
