Remove unnecessary files, note coloring #2

Closed 1033Forest closed 8 years ago

All those "burger" and "key" and "para whatever" notes can be removed, since this only works on techno. And edit the lua file, to remove all these notes that aren't needed. Same thing with the "hand whatever" and "leftfist", "leftfoot", etc. Remove everything except left/right, up/down, the diagonals, and center. It would look weird to use this noteskin on other gametypes. And for the center, can it be pink/purple like the original technomotion game? I can use paint.net to re-hue it. A center receptor still needs to be worked on.

I'd like to see a rhythm colored version of this, with blue holds/gray rolls (5.0) and note colored holds/rolls (5.1). I will re-hue the images according to this: 4th - Blue 8th - Red 12th - Pink 16th - Yellow 24th - Purple 32nd - Teal 48th - Orange 64th - Green 192nd - Gray

I am trying to re-hue them but it's not giving me the colors I want. The colors I want to use are: http://i.imgur.com/dsL15SN.png

I need help creating images for them. In 5.0, the holds would be blue and the rolls gray. 5.1, holds and rolls note colored. The 192nd color could be the same as the gray roll notes in the original 3.95 version of the noteskin.

And the color for "12th" could be the new center panel color (the center on techno pads is pink).

http://i.imgur.com/4RyjCEF.jpg New arrow explosion graphic (got this from the PIU Pro noteskin). To get the rotations right here they are: DownLeft: 0 Left: 45 UpLeft: 90 Down: 315 Up: 135 UpRight: 180 Right: 225 DownRight: 270

And for the center explosion, rotate it 45 so it looks like a diamond.

Hi! Thanks for the response!

I think, the techno gamemode doesn't have a center button, at least in stepmania. Only pump it up has it that's why it is yellow, but I'll make a child noteskin with pink center.

I like the colors on that pic and the rhythm coloring is a good idea too. Is it also possible to make it random to rhythm? I really don't know anything with lua but I'm not bad at Photoshop :) so I'll make a color changed version and I'd also want to make a version for couples play. And maybe one without the white border from thethe image you linked(but that would have no animation as I can't make it).

And nice find on the explosions! Thank you :) and what should be the bright explosion(or dim)?

Is it a good idea to make player 2 purple to yellow?

1033Forest commented 8 years ago

I prefer P1 blue and P2 red, and in case routines with more players get supported, P3 yellow and P4 green.

Techno mode does have a center button. There's techno-single5 and techno-double5 mode (same as pump), which the actual arcade Technomotion also had. And it is actually pink. http://i.ushipcdn.com/resize.php?path=%2Fstatic%2Fbed903ba-e624-4316-8.jpg&w=270&h=210

The single and double 5 mode can be selected in the default theme, but in Simply Love it only lets you select techno-single8 and double8. It is also possible to make any dance noteskin support techno, as long as it has no holds that correspond to each direction. Put this in the lua file: After UpRight = "Down", enter and put this: DownLeft = "Down", DownRight = "Down", and be sure to put a tab before each line.

Under the rotations, after UpRight = 225, enter and put this: DownLeft = 45, DownRight = 315, Also put a tab before each line.

Oh I see, I only tried the 8 panel mode. I was thinking about a colorful 2 player mode with rhythm coloring, is that a bad idea with all the colors? Maybe player 1 warm colors and place 2 cold colors? Oh and I was thinking about the new arrows animation and it doesn't look impossible to make :) so when I'm at home and have time, I'll continue working on it :)

1033Forest commented 8 years ago

Maybe, but random coloring is only possible in 5.1 I think. I think it could be like this: P1's warm colors: 4th - Pink 8th - Red 12th - Orange 16th - Yellow and the same thing repeats for 24th-64th.

P2 cool colors: 4th - Purple 8th - Blue 12th - Teal 16th - Green and repeat for 24th-64th

Or, maybe reverse the color order for 24th-64th, to give a more unique color pattern.

And a center panel in pink would fit well, since later on, there will be an ability to add custom step types, so I could create a 9 panel game out of this. Maybe use the pop'n game type to create a 9 panel noteskin (though it'd look weird in 5 panel, it's only upleft, down, center, up, and upright...).

Left White = DownLeft Left Yellow = Left Left Green = UpLeft Left Blue = Down Red = Center Right Blue = Up Right Green = UpRight Right Yellow = Right Right White = DownRight (you don't have to use these colors, these are just the button names for pop'n game mode).

I could edit the lua file, instead of redirecting the pop'n notes to "Burger", I could make them redirect to the buttons in this noteskin. So it supports dance, pump, techno, and pop'n. I could make it support KB7 too (the space could be the center button)

Key1 = UpLeft Key2 = Left Key3 = DownLeft Key4 (Space) = Center Key5 = DownRight Key6 = Right Key7 = UpRight

I got this pattern from Jousway's FFRHD 7K (decided to use center instead of down for the space bar key)

I can even make it support para (even though dance/pump/techno noteskins don't look like para arrows): Left, UpLeft, Up, UpRight, Right

EZ2: Use upleft, down, and upright arrows, and centers for the hands

For the unused beat color holds and rolls the name of the color at the end of each file name is in Hungarian?

s-k-y-l-i commented 8 years ago

yes, those are just my backup images :D i'll rename them when i'll use them :)

Issue is done in the "sexy" noteskin
