PMSee-V v2.2.3

  • Fixed rendering bug; Overlapping channels are not permitted any longer.
  • Now, PMSee-V can be started if a BMS/BME/BML/PMS chart is dropped to pmsee-v.exe on my Windows 8.1. This is news very good for me. Thanks to Ponira.

A part of group which cannot load a full path tends to load “BMS-directory\defined-path”.

E.g. : “D:\bms\yamajet_is_sugoi\D:\wav.wav is not found.

DTXMania 099 + DTXCreator 026

なお、今回のリリース(099)が、Windows XPで動作する最後のバージョンとなります。次のリリース以降(100~)は、Windows 7以降でのみ動作確認する予定です。(Direct3D9Exなど、今後はXPでは使用できない機能を使用するため、今後のバージョンはXPでは動作しなくなります)

  • This release (099) is the last version which supports Windows XP.
  • DTXCreator 026 can call DTXManiaGR.exe now as viewer-application instead of DTXV.exe.
  • In connection with this, DTXMania and DTXCreator are released by one set from now on.
  • I added DTXManiaGR to “BMS Bitmap test”.

When the negative BPM is applied, Rhythm-it displays past LONGNOTEs

“Sofa $15 -> $2014” made me remember that.

Sonorous 0.1.0-pre ()

Introduced the new skin system, used for every user interface excluding the play screen (pending).

default skin lookup path: <root>/res/skin

By “-Y PATH” or “--skin-root PATH” option, another SKIN is applicable.

SKIN is defined by simple JSON. Since Sonorous is mostly text-based BMS player, customization is not difficult for users.

The metadata is cached to the database when -D dbpath option is given, so the list of BMSes gets loaded very quickly after the initial loading.

Details: commit 3f18878

By “-D PATH” or “--database-root PATH” option, the database path which should be writable is settable.

I who don't know well about SQLite wait for description by someone who knows in more detail.

BMS易化差分event案

  • 興味があります。私はrulesの良し悪しを判断できませんが、難易度を同梱譜面と比較するのが主眼なら現段階でほぼ問題なさそうに思います。10KEYS差分は登録の余地が無さそうだけど、さすがに仕方ないかな。
  • たとえば#PLAYLEVEL 99の7KEYS譜面を持つ“Cul de Suc”に対し、#PLAYLEVEL 98の7KEYS差分を登録できるでしょうか? それとも同梱譜面の下限難易度#PLAYLEVEL 6を下回る必要があるでしょうか?
  • 差分や追加filesの命名規則が揃っていると、便利かもしれません。可能な限り「同梱譜面ではないこと」を明示する“戦國 DP Starter Pack”のstyleは、理想的に見えます。(Sonorous#DIFFICULTY 0を警告しますが、それ以外の不利益が無いようなら、私はこのstyleを積極的に真似したいです。)

Categorizing about “ALL SCRATCH” chart

For example, “Fruit collection” (10KEYS ANOTHER) should be distinguished from “Fruit collection” (14KEYS ANOTHER). In present BMS specification, the method for distinguishing these has only #xxx31-49. [LR2, nanasi, TechnicalGroove] #xxx29:00 is effective.

By the way, the following methods are not recommended:

人によってはソートを14KEYSのみにしている場合があるので、不可視キーを14鍵全部に配置すると10KEYS譜面にしながら14KEYSソートで表示できるようになります。

Mimic-14KEYS by invisible notes is nothing but 14KEYS in modern implementations (such as LR2, nanasi, Angolmois, Sonorous, TechnicalGroove, etc). SKIN or SORT for 10KEYS are not applied to mimic-14KEYS. Moreover, it becomes impossible to classify DP charts by the number of KEYs.

This table contains the four or more different contexts:

  • Nine levels from 1 to 9 based on beatmania series from “complete MIX 2” to “THE FINAL”.
  • Twelve levels from 1 to 12 based on beatmania IIDX series from “12 HAPPY SKY”.
  • Fifty levels from 1 to 50 based on pop'n music series from “Sunny Park”.
  • Implicit promise by the INSANE BMS players who defined AA (ANOTHER chart from beatmania IIDX 11 IIDX RED) as the reference level 1. (Image of AA(A) / Video of AA(A))
  • Level evaluation based on rhythm games other than these, or noters' original level evaluation.
