Stepmania OutPhase Style (OPS)

MegamanZ · 07-12-2006, 03:06 PM

This is the stepmania mix that has been in the works for a while at Outphase.com. this project has gotten to the point where we are getting songs quicker than we can get them sync'd, stepped, BG'd, and bannered, and we have no BG vid artist at this point. anyone willing to help may do so.

I require that we have permission from the artist to use a song before we start work on it. because of this, we are also looking for someone who understands both english and japanese, since some of the songs we are considering are made by japanese artists who do not know english, and none of the people working on this mix know enough japanese.

the current songlist and status is as follows:

Quote:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
approved songs (work can begin or has been done on these)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Isosceles - Ultra Violette (version: Another, BGA: UV, Banner artist needed. someone else has to sync this simfile or I have to find another computer to do so.)
Rebound - DXSynergy (version: normal, BG/Banner: Red_tek, stepcharts in progress [Zeta])
Sonar - DXSynergy (no work started)
Ambient Skies - Dj Bouche (SM cut: Dj Bouche, BG/Banner: Red_tek, Stepcharts in progress [Red_tek])
Revelation X - Dj Bouche (SM cut: Dj Bouche, BG/Banner: Red_tek, no stepchart progress)
Earth (from synthony #1) - SynGenII (no work started)
Fire (from synthony #1) - SynGenII (no work started)
Water (from synthony #1) - SynGenII (no work started)
The Legend will never die - MINTJAM (no work started)
-Z- - MINTJAM (no work started)
XO - beatzero

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Is this going to be a Pad or Keyboard biased pack?

MegamanZ · 07-12-2006, 09:13 PM

Light through heavy are pad oriented, Oni's MAY be possible on pad (they will be hard), but they will be aimed more for keyboarders. edit charts will be anywhere from simple to damn near impossible (step artist's descretion)

Patashu · 07-12-2006, 09:21 PM

Ah, excellent.

Ben Speirs · 07-16-2006, 03:09 AM

Just a question, If I post my Quasar edit, would that be allowed or not?

MegamanZ · 07-17-2006, 09:41 PM

no. unless you can prove to us that you have the artist's permission to submit that song (and I want a way to verify that as well), you cannot.

K-Stro · 07-18-2006, 12:02 AM

Is this run off of stepmania or is it's own game?

MegamanZ · 07-18-2006, 01:49 PM

we'll have two releases: a standalone release (with unlock system and specially tailored theme [special stage animations and so forth]) and an add-on release (theme will conain a few more generic images, but otherwise be identical to the standalone). the engine used will be 3.9, and after the release, if someone can get the theme converted into 4.0 format, they can go ahead and do so.

[update on songlist: green light from MINTJAM for "The Legend will never die" and "-Z-"]

Thank you Bemanistyle for all your kindly appreciated generosity and support... :/

We now have a new name [Stepmania Insurrection] and have a new, dedicated forum for it.
Anyways, just to let everyone know this project is still going, and still accepts any help from volunteers (mainly step artists are needed).
In any event, here is the new, dedicated forum for the said mix:
http://sminsurrection.freephpnuke.org/

At this point in time we are still relatively small, and, again any help is greatly
appreciated.

As for songs the list is still the same as before, only with appended songs:

XO - Beatzero
Air - SyngenII
XO (jihnsius 12" remix - Jihnsius
Euthanasia take 2 - Jihnsius
Diversity - Jihnsius

Songs that could be used, but the artist hasn't been contacted:

("either or" because this style all sounds pretty similar anyway)

Heres his website, as far as I can tell:
http://www.internalfx.com/sound/

(the stuff on there appear to be samples, except for a few.)

I'm willing to help, give me some MP3's and some accurate bpm's and ill get going. I'm assuming this is a keyboard pack.

red_tek · 08-25-2006, 09:02 PM

Glad to hear it DiStRaCtEd (real crazy name

)
This Mix is kinda half keyboard half pad; read below:

If your still interested, then head on over to our site: http://sminsurrection.freephpnuke.org/

You don't have to register to post, but I would reccomend that you do. Basically all you need to do is go to
Forum -> Songlist Discussion -> song stepchart/sync submission guidelinesand volunteer.. (link): http://sminsurrection.freephpnuke.or...viewtopic&t=15

MegamanZ can probably find you some stuff to do, If your still interested.
If You want I can PM you the link to the newly cut version of XO by beatzero.

Cheers mate

that reminds me... I probably should ask Niahak about asking him. if he will, we've probably found our translator. if not, we're still on square one

red_tek · 08-28-2006, 05:09 PM

Ok, we have a go on Jihnsius' stuff - get ready to update, Zeta!
