Title: So does anyone here play Step Mania?
Post by: -IceColdApplePretzel- on June 18, 2007, 11:01:19 PM: Step Mania is a DDR game for the PC. Does anyone know\play it?

Post by: MEGAß¥TE on June 18, 2007, 11:03:12 PM: I have it and the equipment, but I don't think the people living downstairs would appreciate it.

Post by: SolidShroom on June 18, 2007, 11:28:05 PM: All it requires is a PS2 to computer adaptor. Same with Frets on fire, the Guitar Hero PC clone. Oh, and with the Xbox 360 having USB based controllers, I imagine an Xbox 360 dance pad would would with Step mania. I, however, don't have step mania.

Post by: WarpRattler on June 18, 2007, 11:44:58 PM: I play StepMania (there is no space in there) all the time. However, since I don't have said adapter, and since something's up with SM on this computer that stops me from using the keyboard, I have to use a gamepad, which is extremely annoying (especially since I had gotten used to using a mat for DDRMAX2 or the keyboard)...

Post by: Chupperson Weird on June 19, 2007, 11:45:57 PM: Not having played StepMania, I can only assume that DDR is still better.

Post by: MEGAß¥TE on June 20, 2007, 01:46:02 AM: It's an open-source DDR clone. Which means theoretically you could just load the DDR songs and patterns. Which means StepMania is better by default.

Post by: WarpRattler on June 20, 2007, 08:02:03 AM: More of a DDR sim, really. But StepMania is better, if only because I can play songs from DDR Extreme without that stupid scoring system.

Post by: MEGAß¥TE on June 20, 2007, 10:23:18 AM: Uhh clone = sim.
Title: Re: So does anyone here play Step Mania?
Post by: WarpRattler on June 20, 2007, 11:18:29 AM: Not necessarily, but I see what you're saying.

I'm surprised that Insane Steve hasn't said anything in this thread.

Wrong. Especially looking at DDR's latest releases... also you can theoretically play whatever songs you want on Stepmania if you find or make charts to them.

I play Stepmania, both on pad and on keyboard. I'm also a simfile designer.
