DDR Mario Mix: Hard Mode

Patashu · 07-11-2006, 10:34 PM

Too many people complain about the songs being too easy (except Bowser's Castle). How about we do something about it?

The songs are all here:

http://betahybrid.simpleshape.com/MarioMixComplete.zip

The objective will be to provide every song with pad steps that push the song to its limits while still being passable on foot. Keyboard steps that are even harder are optional, but if you can do them then please do so. If you want to make lesser difficulties as well that's also okay, just make them good.

Who's willing to help out?

EDIT: And we'll be using the same banners/backgrounds as in the pack given (unless anyone knows where to find better resolution versions or can make them?), but you must supply your own cd title.

EDIT: For newcomers, here are files I've recieved:

Always Smiling: Good, could be better but worthy of inclusion
Bowser's Castle: Haven't liked any so far. I've made my own, in fact, and I still need to finish the Edit chart.
Blooper Bop: Perfect.
Garden Boogie: Good, although I'm interested in a keyboard edit for this still.
Jump Jump Jump: Not sure about this one. It feels odd.
Piroli: Not satisfied.
Rendezvous on Ice: Perfect, because I made it. <.< >.> <.<
Underground Mozart: Perfect, fiddled around a bit first though.

And that's out of about 30, long way to go.
Where's The Exit: Not satisfied.

I thought the game was fine as is, but I'll run with it.

I've got dibbs on the Csikos Post remix.

PS - They should be good pad files suited for DDR, should they not? Let's not have ITG-style crap.

Well, if they're hard enough to have keyboard steps too, they should. But whatever works, as long as it fits the music well.

And dibs on Rendezvous on Ice.

Isn't anything really capable of becoming a keyboard chart?

Patashu · 07-12-2006, 10:09 PM

Well, hard enough to become a keyboard chart without making EVERY sound a jump.

Speaking of which, can Bowser's Castle be made any harder?

If we could add rocket ship parts.

Yes it can, and if my BOWSER! file was still up here, I'd show you. You guys should include the original Heavy(Super hard) and Standard(Hard), moved down one, so its basically an entire simfile, with Light, Standard, New Heavy, New Challenge, and maybe new Edit charts.

Could you re-upload it or toss it to Patashu@hotmail.com?

I was just going to make some edit charts for everything. I'm not redoing Konami's game for them, especially when I'm involved in other simfile projects.

I could maybe help on Beginner and Basic (Light) steps. I'm not very good at harder difficulties and I'm sure people capable of making harder charts would rather not waste time on the lower difficulties if someone else could take the time to do it instead.

i wanna help

You can do Beginner and Light on Rendezvous on Ice, then; I know I'm not going to go below standard.

And on second thought, scratch the cd title idea; I'll just use readmes to give credit.

By all means! Just pick a mario mix song, make it harder, better, faster, stronger.

EDIT: Made a 9 foot pad edit for Credits. (Although I only stepped through the tune once; if you want it to last twice as long you'll have to play it twice in a row.) Going to finally go work on Rendezvous on Ice now.

Looks like I can fit a 10 foot (or not quite ten foot?) pad edit into the song, as well as 11-12 for keyboard, looking good so far...

BOWSER!!! was actually a remix, or I'd send it. Also, I can't seem to find the song.

Patashu · 07-14-2006, 12:28 AM

Ah, alright then.

conman1 · 07-17-2006, 02:58 PM

I would love to help. I am pretty good at harder charts (not to goods but I am capable of doing them.) If I can help, can I do pirate dance?
