Default Small Guide to playing Feeling Pomu

Warning: long thread

Okay, since Sanae-chan provided a whole guide on setting up Feeling Pomu here, I noticed that alot of people seem to have problems when they start playing it more than setting it up. So I made a little guide from a year or so of playing it. Just make note that I don't know everything about it, I don't have Japanese encoding on my computer, and that I'm not the main developer.

Loading Screen

Okay, this is the first screen that appears after you start the program. This is the loading screen for the game and your BMS files. If you program crashes suddenly after this appears for a second, you must make sure that you actually have BMS files to play. Some keysounded and non-keysounded BMS files were provided here. Create a new folder in the Feeling Pomu folder called "BMS files" and store them there. Once you got your files, then the program won't crash and you can move on.

Skin Select Screen

EDIT: Alright, now I figured this screen out after looking at the skin folder. It's to select your skin. In the beginning, it has two default skins, which I haven't taken a good look at to see differences. Sanae-chan released the beta version of the FEVER skin, so make sure to look at the topic provided in the links at the end of this post. ^^

Controller Select Screen

If you pick one of the two options in the previous screen, sometimes this screen appears. From what I see, it looks like an option screen for what your using to play. In other words, it asks if your using a Pop'n ASC, Dualshock, keyboard, or anything other. This may not be right and it may be for something else, but usually picking the first option leads you to the main menu anyways.

Main Menu

Alright, here's the main menu of the game. The first option leads you to the mode select screen to start playing the game. The second leads you to the option menu where you can add your modifiers like Hi-Speed and such. The third and fourth I'm not quite sure does. The fifth leads you back to the version select screen and the last lets you exit the program. However, simply pressing Escape on you keybaord at this menu lets you exit the program as well.

Mode Select

The menu where you select your characters, key settings, and playing mode. The menu on the left is your mode selection.(Normal, Excite, Free, ect.) The menu on the right is where you select your characters. I deleted mine at the moment, but some of you might have a few. The menu on the bottom right is the play style. It lets you chose between 9 key(Single), 5 key(Easy), and 18 key(double). Once you finish selecting, you will be lead to the music selection screen.
To navigate through this screen:
Mode Select: right and left arrows
Character Select: up and down arrows
Play Style: Shift Button

Music Select

Pretty much straightfoward, where you select your music. ^^

Option Menu(before song):

When the black screen with the genre, song title, and artist appears, you can simply press "R" on your keyboard to access the player options and mods instead of going to the main screen at the beginning.

Gameplay:

Your song is starting, but not so sure what the keys are? Here(hyphens were used to separate keys in Pop'n controller layout):

9 key
s-d-f-g
z-x-c-v-b

5 key
z-x-c-v-b

18 key
s-d-f-g
z-x-c-v-b

j-k-l-;
n-m-,-.-/

Okay that's all I can say to help.
On a side note, Sanae-chan is making a FEVER and CARNIVAL skin for Feeling Pomu as well as some characters. Please be patient with that. She posted a video of her playing Grunge-Des[ex] s-random , high speed x4 with her new skin.

Anyways links to other threads:

BMS request thread(with links to download BMS files)

Sorry, I'm not so sure if other characters are available at the moment.....and I'm pretty sure that I had the same 3 characters that you're talking about.
I know, Feeling Pomu isn't quite exciting as other bemani sims due to the lack of support and development for it. Probably the same reason with Step'n Music and Pop'n Music simulation in general.

I'd seriously wait for Sanae-chan's skin for it though. It looks like she(?) is really working hard on it. She's also working on characters I believe.

Sorry once again....>.>;;;

Oh....and I shall add your character thread to the original post.

Oh... is there any way to change the joystick configurations? I'm not used to using the number keypad to play.... so, do I just have to get used to it? Or can I change it? I'm still getting used to Feeling Pomu...

That's strange.....I always thought "zsxdcfv" were the default keys for all Pop'n sims. o_o I dunno, I still have to get back on you for that one. Someone else may answer your question though. btw, your art at DA is very cute! ^^

Oh sorry, yes, those keys are also used... I just found that out today... but actually, with Step'n Music, I became used to using the homerow for the keys (asdf space jkl So, I guess I'll get used to "zsxdcfv" but if there is a way to configure, that would be great ^^;

There should be Colorfull Canvas theme, songs, and characters existed. I also use BMS files (mainly alot of IIDX ones) to fill me up. And also done some characters thanks to the CC chara-time sheets.

Colorful Canvas - for feeling pomu 2nd- Official Website

If you have a english computer... You have to do a bit of tweaking once you got the Colorfull Canvas sets. (AKA like banner file renaming. X_X)

No problem. :3

I also have my own Feeling PoMu characters... Mainly from various Pop'n Music games... (Some are by Chao Freak...)

Also, after you get Colorfull Canvas and such... You can hunt down more BMS files (to me it doesn't have to be for "Pop'n Music" if you are desperate.) in BemaniStyle... And some offical ones over there.

bms terminal v1.5 ~HAPPY SKY~

I have more sites with BMS files... But i'm in the school computers right now... And should be studying my japanese vocabulary. :V

I can dig up my old characters too. They're not the best, but they work. I have Mimi, Nyami, Tails doll, Nny from JTHM, and my more recent (but still old) character Nyanko. I'll dig 'em up later.
