DDR portal tě vítá na serveru českých hráčů Dance Dance Revolution


Co to je a k čemu je program Stepmania ?

Stepmania je volně šiřitelný program pro simulátor pro hry z rodiny DDR a jim podobných. Funguje pod Windows, na Linuxu i na Xbox konzoli.

Domácí stránka programu je www.stepmania.com a zde si ji můžete stáhnout. Na adrese najdete i pár bonusů jako songy, fotky, videa, návody a manuály. Samozřejmě nechybí ani odkazy na další stránky a aktuální informace o vývoji programu. Poslední stabilní verze je 3.9, takže doporučujeme začít s ní.

Samotný program Stepmania (dále jen SM) Vám k hraní stačit nebude, potřebujete písničky. Ty označujeme anglickým slovem "songs" a nahrávají se do adresáře /songs. Více o nich, kde je sehnat, vytvořit a nahrát, najdete pod klíčovým slovem "songs".

Doporučuji program nainstalovat do kořenového adresáře, například X:/DDR. Budete mít k SM rychlejší přístup a spousta malých souborů zabere méně místa.

Další informace, rady, instalaci a řešení problémů s programem najdete v této části našeho fóra .


Jaké adresáře v Stepmanii najdete a co do nich můžete nahrát?

Announcers - Tenhle adresář slouží pro nahrání komentátora, co vám bude "kecat" do hry. Říkat jak dobře nebo špatně potvrzujete šipky, jak velké máte combo, a jaké jsou vaše závěrečné výsledky.
Cache - Adresíř pro cache songů, pro příští rychlejší start aplikace. Pokud budete mít pár tisíc songů, stejně si chvilku počkáte, než se SM spustí.
Characters - Řekněme tanečníci. Jedná se o figurky, co se hýbou a tancují za šipkami a před pozadím. Někdy rozptylují, někdy pobaví.
Data - Adresář pro nastavení a statistiky. Najdete zde jak nastavení programu Stepmania (soubor stepmania.ini), tak vaše statistiky (adresář LocalProfiles) i statistiky celé mašiny, SM (MachineProfile). Můžete se podívat na doporučené nastavení souboru Stepmania.ini, nebo si SM můžete nastavit přímo v programu. Náročnější hráči si v souboru stepmania.ini nastaví JudgeWindow nebo PerfectScore, ale to normální hráče zatěžovat nemusí.
Notekins - Adresář pro uložení grafiky - noteskinů - dalších vzhledů šipek. Oni totiž ani šipky nemusí vypadat pořád stejně. Existuje větší množství těchto noteskinů.
Program - Adresář obsahující knihovny a spouštěcí soubor stepmania.exe
Screenshots - Ve Stepmanii můžete kdykoliv stisknout klávesu PrintScreen, a do tohoto adresáře se uloží jpeg s aktuálnám obrázkem v rozlišení 640x480. Dobré na ukládání obrázků z výsledné obrazovky. Plno lidí takto své výsledky porovnává.
Songs - Hlavní adresář pro hudbu. Sem dáváte všechny songy, které chcete v Stepmanii hrát. V adresáři Songs je další adresář s názvem alba, v něm adresáře s názvy jednotlivých songů a v tomto jsou už jednotlivé soubory (hudba ve formátu MP3, soubor se šipkami zvaný stepchart, případné titulky k hudbě označované jako lyric, animace, pozadí, obrázek songu a autora a podobně). Nemůžete sem tedy nakopírovat vaše oblíbené album s MP3, nemáte u nich vytvořené stepcharty. Buď šipky uděláte sami, nebo si seženete požadovanou hudbu jinde.
Themes - Jiný kabát pro vaší Stepmanii. Jako program Winamp můžete i SM převléci a dát jí jiný vzhled. Neliší se jen barvy, ale může jít o kompletní změnu programu k novému obrazu. Každému vyhovuje něco jiného, každý themes může ukazovat více či méně informací o dané skladbě, o výsledcích a může mít u různé zvukové efekty.
BackgroundEffects, BackgroundTransitions, BGAnimations, RandomMovies ...a podobné adresáře jsou pro videa a efekty k nim. Videa mohou být také přímo v adresáři Songs u hudby.


V Stepmanii můžete používat i klávesové zkratky. Uvádím je zde jen pro úplnost, protože běžnému hráči stačí šipky, enter, a esc. Zde je tedy jejich přehled:

Kdykoliv:

  • F1 = vložení mince
  • F2 = zvonunačtení metrik a textur
  • Alt-Enter = přepnutí do nebo z fullscreenu
  • PrintScreen = vytvoří screenshot obrazovky a uloží jej do adresáře Screenshots
  • Držet Tab = zvýší rychlost hry 4x. Používá se pro rychlejší pohyb v menu a výběru songů
  • Držet Tildu (~) = naopak sníží rychlost hry na 1/4x
  • Držet Tab a Tildu (~) = sníží rychlost na 0x

    V menu:

  • Směrové šipky slouží pro pohyb v menu
  • Enter = Start
  • Escape = zpět

    Ještě před vlastním hraním - attract obrazovka:

  • Left nebo Right = další obrazovka
  • F3 = přepnutí CoinMode

    V hlavním menu:

  • Escape = vrácení o obrazovku zpět

    Během hry:

  • F6 = přepnutí AutoSync módu
  • F7 = přepnutí assist tick (tleskání do rytmu hudby)
  • F8 = přepnutí AutoPlay (počítač hraje sám za vás)
  • F9 = sníží offset
  • F10 = zvýší offset
  • F11 = sníží BPM současného segmentu (držte ALT pro větší citlivost)
  • F12 = zvýší BPM současného segmentu (držte ALT pro větší citlivost)
  • Držet Escape = ukončí hraní

    V editoru:

  • Escape = menu
  • Up/Down = předchozí/další řádka
  • Left/Right = změna kroku
  • 1 až 0 = přidá/smaže notu
  • Enter - nastaví počáteční značku pro označení oblasti
  • Space - nastaví značku pro konec výběru oblasti
  • P - přehrání označené oblasti (pokud není nic označeno, přehraje celý song)
  • R - spustí nahrávání do označené oblasti (pokud není nic označeno, přehraje celý song)

    V menu pro výběr songu:

  • F9 = změna překladu názvů (například pro japonské názvy skladeb)


    Během výběru songu můžete zadat určitou sekvenci kláves a provede se příslušná akce. Tyto sekvence jsou sice závislé na tom, jaký themes používáte, nicméně se autoři snaří dodržet tyto zvyklosti:

    Přepnutí na lehčí úrověň:

  • Easier1=Up,Up
  • Easier2=MenuUp,MenuUp

    Přepnutí na těžší úrověň:

  • Harder1=Down,Down
  • Harder2=MenuDown,MenuDown

    Změna seřazení songů na další způsob:

  • NextSort1=MenuLeft-MenuRight-Start
  • NextSort2=MenuLeft+MenuRight
  • NextSort3=Left-Right-Start
  • NextSort4=Left+Right

    Změna seřazení songů:

  • SortMenu1=Up,Down,Up,Down
  • SortMenu2=MenuUp,MenuDown,MenuUp,MenuDown

    Modifikace songu (udělá obvykle hru težší):

  • Mirror=Up,Left,Right,Left,Right
  • Left=Up,Down,Right,Left
  • Right=Up,Down,Left,Right
  • Shuffle=Down,Up,Down,Up
  • SuperShuffle=Down,Up,Left,Right

    Změna rychlosti šipek:

  • NextScrollSpeed=Up,Left,Down,Left,Up
  • PreviousScrollSpeed=Down,Right,Up,Right,Down

    Další modifikace:

  • NextAccel=Left,Right,Down,Up
  • NextEffect=Left,Down,Right
  • NextAppearance=Left,Up,Right
  • Reverse=Down,Left,Right,Left,Right
  • HoldNotes=Right,Left,Down,Up

    Zrušení všech modifikací:

  • CancelAll=Left,Right,Left,Right,Left,Right,Left,Right

    Změna astavení Stepmanie:

  • NextTheme=Left,Left,Left,Right,Right,Right,Left,Right
  • NextTheme2=MenuLeft,MenuLeft,MenuLeft,MenuRight,MenuRight,MenuRight,MenuLeft,MenuRight
  • NextAnnouncer=Left,Left,Right,Right,Left,Left,Right,Right
  • NextAnnouncer2=MenuLeft,MenuLeft,MenuRight,MenuRight,MenuLeft,MenuLeft,MenuRight,MenuRight
  • NextGame=Left,Right,Left,Left,Right,Right,Left,Right
  • NextGame2=MenuLeft,MenuRight,MenuLeft,MenuLeft,MenuRight,MenuRight,MenuLeft,MenuRight
  • NextBannerGroup=MenuUp,MenuRight,MenuRight
  • NextBannerGroup2=MenuUp,MenuDown,MenuUp,MenuDown


    No a pokud se Vám Stepmania nevlíbí, zkuste podobné simulátory jako DWI, Pydance, Flash Flash Revolution.. .

    1. What's the point of this FAQ?
    -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
    Figured, if you want to know what you're missing in the Gallery Mode or
    what songs you have left ot unlock, other miscellaneous questions you
    may ask about the game. The rest of it is pretty much standard. If you
    own this game, you should pretty much understand how DDR works at this
    point.

    -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
    2. Unlocking songs
    -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
    After about completing about 5 songs, you unlock a new song or a new mode.
    You can NOT fail the songs, and long version songs DO NOT count as 2 songs
    if "EVENT MODE" is on unfortunately (but it will if it's off).

    These are the songs that get unlocked in order:

    Judy Crystal - Nori Nori Nori
    Roxette - The Centre of the Heart (Stonebridge Clubmix)

    4. Other unlockables and codes
    -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
    Well, DDR doesn't have much of "codes" but here are a few things.

    -Clear a certain amount of songs, about 75 songs, you'll unlock Naoki
    (A side) and N.M.R. (B side) for playable characters.

    -Clear a certain amount of songs, about 100 songs, you'll unlock U1
    (A side) and 2MB (B side)



    The original set up of the songlist is in order of DIFFICULTY, mainly how
    hard the BASIC difficulty is. Pressing start during the song selection
    screen will change the order of the songlist.

    -First time alphabetizes them, press O over any letter, it will bring down
    a list of songs that start with that letter. Some letter have no songs
    that start with it.

    -Second time will arrange them by the BPMs, Sana Mollete Ne Ente is the
    slowest, INSERTiON is the fastest (at one point, it hits 220 BPM).

    -Third time will arrange the songs by "the players' best." In other words,
    the song played the best, I believe in terms of Perfect % ratio.

    -Fourth time will arrange the songlist in the original arrangement.



    Pressing select during the song selection screen will drop down a "sequence
    option" menu.

    -Little removes all "offbeat" arrows.
    -Flat changes all "offbeat" arrows to the same color.

    -Left changes all arrow orientation so you'll be facing left.
    -Right changes all arrow orientation so you'll be facing right.
    -Mirror flips the arrows around so you'll be facing away from the screen.
    -Shuffle changes the arrows around to different directions.

    -Hidden makes the arrows disappear about halfway up the screen.
    -Sudden makes the arrows appear about halfway up the screen.
    -Stealth makes the arrows disappear altogether.

    5. Frequently Asked Questions (Or questions you might ask...or maybe not)
    -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
    Q. What's this with no intro? Is there a way to turn it on?
    A. No.


    Q. CAN I PLAY ALL THE SONGS FROM THE OLD DDR IN THIS MIX? IS THERE A
    WAY TO UNLOCK THE OLD SONGS ON 5TH MIX PSX? HOW DO I PLAY *your song here*
    IN THIS VERSION? I REALLY WANNA PLAY IT SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO BAD!!! HELP ME!
    A. NO. NO. NO. AND TOO BAD. KONAMI HAS NEVER EVER MADE AN "ARCADE PERFECT"
    PSX TRANSLATION SINCE 1ST MIX. IT'S NOT THERE. THE OLD SONGS WILL NEVER
    BE THERE. GO BUY THE OLDER MIXES IF YOU WANT TO PLAY THEM. LIVE WITH IT.

    Q. How come I can't choose a long version as my first song?
    A. If you have a standard 3-5 song setup, the Long versions will not
    appear until after your first song, and before your last song.


    Q. How come I got one less song after I played a long version song???
    What a rip!
    A. Long versions take up 2 SONG SLOTS. It acts as two songs in one.


    Q. That sucks.
    A. So then don't play them, or turn EVENT MODE on in the options.


    Q. What are those little green/yellow icons next to some of the songs
    titles?
    A. They mark out the easiest songs in case beginners can't figure out
    what those little foot things mean.
    *Thanks again to Mog Knight for pointing this out*


    Q. I noticed that the "dissipation" animation for when I hit the arrows
    sometimes change to a colorful star?
    A. Usually then you hit an arrow, the arrows will "dissipate" into a
    different color arrow, depending on what your rating was for that step (i.e.
    Dissipates to yellow if you hit a Perfect!, Green for Great, and doesn't
    dissipate for any other rating lower than Great). But when you hit a
    100 combo, the arrow dissipates into a different star shape color with
    every step you hit.


    Q. The arrows and the animation is SO smooth!
    A. Animations should be. But the arrows aren't. Unlike the arcade, the
    arrows are still at 30 fps.


    Q. Can I use link data with my memory card on the arcade machine?
    A. Yes. 4th/Extra Mix for PSX allow "Link data" to be saved on
    your PSX memory card, PROVIDED THE ARCADE CABINET HAS A MEMORY CARD SLOT
    MECH. You can find these above the coin door. If it's not there, then
    your arcade cabinet doesn't have one (it costs about $200 to get one
    installed). Also, the "NEW DDR LINK" option in LINK DATA allow you to
    use your memory card link data for 6th Mix.


    Q. How do I use EDIT DATA from my memory card for a song that I have
    EDIT STEPS for?
    A. In the song selection screen, go to the corresponding song that you
    have the edit steps for. Hit X twice, it will show you what EDIT DATA
    is available for the song. Hit up or down to select YOUR EDIT DATA,
    and hit O. If it's not there, then the memory card doesn't have the data.
    *Thanks to MogKnight correcting me*


    Q. Under "DATA BANK", who's edit data are these? Are these official?
    A. When 5th Mix was released in the arcade, Konami decided to hold a little
    "SUBMIT YOUR BEST EDIT DATA TO KONAMI TO BE PUBLISHED IN 5th MIX PSX!"
    And that's roughly how many people submitted them. ANd about 1000 of them
    were "great" steps.


    Q. What's "The SubS Mix" mean?
    A. The "SubStream" Mix.


    Q. What's the deal with BabyLon?
    A. Who knows? Cuteness factor I guess.


    Q. Is there a SOLO mode/option for 5th Mix?
    A. No SOLO steps or game was made for 5th Mix.


    Q. Do I have to have my feet on the arrow when a STOP occurs?
    A. No. They are not "Freeze Arrows" (a la 6th Mix).


    Q. Why do some songs have a stupid difficulty?
    A. Because they're "Trial" songs or "preview" songs taken from songs in
    6th Mix. Yes, that means Nori Nori Nori and The Centre of the Heart will
    both be there on 6th Mix.


    Q. How come some songs on 5th Mix PSX aren't in the arcade?
    A. Because Konami wanted to make some "original" songs for PSX exclusive,
    and the result was 5 preview songs. Just like in 4th/Extra Mix PSX.


    Q. Who is Naoki/N.M.R./U-1/2MB?
    A. The sound producers for Konami.


    Q. Why have I never seen U-1 and 2MB in the arcades?
    A. They're new in the PSX version only.


    Q. What's the point of the characters?
    A. None really. Supposedly they affect the way the arrows are "shuffled"
    in Shuffle mode, and the order of songs sometimes. Aside from that, I
    don't know.


    Q. WTF is Britney Spears doing in DDR?
    A. It's only a remix. Just like 70% of the Dancemania songs in DDR. It's
    not even Britney singing, and it's already been liscensed to Toshiba Emi.


    Q. Are the long versions the FULL version of the songs?
    A. No. They're shortened a bit in fact (i.e. Hot Limit has 30 seconds
    chopped off from the full version).


    Q. Where's Endless?
    A. Not there. Kaput. Gone.


    Q. Your FAQ sucks. I can make a better one.
    A. Great. Then go make a better one.
