I am rather new to StepMania online forums, although I've been playing StepMania for a while.
I was wondering a few weeks ago how one would go about creating an 8-way mode for StepMania. As it turns out, StepMania already has 8-way support, simulating the dance game TechnoMotion. So, I downloaded the files necessary to enable TechnoMotion support. Since then, I have been working on StepMania Technomotion files, including noteskins, my theme, and two completed sims.
