Hey so suddenly out of nowhere asphyxia is saying network busy when I try to log in. I haven’t changed any settings since the last time I played, the web ui works just fine, and if I put my pin in wrong it gives me the message for that. I can’t login at all. Also something changed for bemanipatcher, it doesn’t find the Omnimix gamemdx file as a match for anything. Does anyone have the old one? My brother insists my Omnimix sync is off and considering he’s significantly better than I am I tend to believe him even though I’m playing like I normally would on it. Edit: My problem with World was the asphyxia plugin, there was an update for it today that fixed my exact issue. That's up and running again. But if anyone can help me out with bemanipatcher for Omnimix I would appreciate it. Edit: I attached a video of every Flare unlock popping up when the profile has enough points that they've been unlocked a long time ago. It seems to trigger when we get points. If the set is worth no points it doesn't happen, but if even one song is worth points then we have to acknowledge every Flare unlock again. unlock bug.mp4

Put it in the “data” folder for the plug in. Start your asphyxia server and in the webui go to the DDR plug in. Find the box where you specify that you have a musicdb.xml file and just type “musicdb.xml”. Edit: the new Asphyxia plugin shows the World League open message at login and Flair unlocks after every set now. It’s especially obnoxious if you are high enough to have all the songs and charts unlocked since you have to answer that “new benefit” prompt like 12 times. At your leisure, of course, but I just wanted to report it and figured this was a good place.

Yeah no worries, it's the least I can do after the help I've got from this place. musicdb.xml

IIRC you get it from the DDR World game files. It’s been months since I had to get it and I used the same one as the previous asphyxia plugin so I didn’t change anything there. If it’s not in the game files I can try to upload the one I’m using later.

Specify your musicdb.xml file in the asphyxia webui.

Yeah you don’t update asphyxia itself you update the plugin. I probably should have phrased that better. https://github.com/22vv0/asphyxia_plugins/releases/tag/mdx-3.0.4

If you mean the website to get the patches, it's https://sp2x.two-torial.xyz/ Spice seems to still see the 2024112700 data as 2024101500 and that's what it shows up as in the game still. None of the new songs seem to load in? I'm looking through the contents of the rar file and it certainly looks like the stuff needed to load them in. I see xsb, xwb, ssq, jacket, thumbnail, startup.arc, etc among other stuff (maybe customizer stuff, I don't remember when that was implemented). I don't know if maybe asphyxia needs to be updated for it? Edit: Yeah the answer was asphyixia, looks like the plugin was updated 6 hours ago. As far as I can tell all the data the change log says should be there is there. Thanks so much to whoever it is that manages that, you're a hero.

Okay I won’t worry about it then. Thank you.

That makes sense for unlocking events but I have all the songs in World and can select Galaxy Play. I can’t select it in A3, it doesn’t even show up. Is there a benefit to it in A3? Like in World you need to use it to access Floating Flair. Does A3 have something like that?

Does anyone know if it's possible to enable Galaxy Play in A3 with Monkey Business as the server? I swear I have everything turned on for taxes and virtual currency, I can see the price of it in Paseli like I can for Normal and Premium, but it doesn't show up as an option. Does having all the songs unlocked prevent it (and the Baby-Lon's Galaxy event) from working? Also, just out of curiosity (I know you aren't distributing it anymore) did the frankenstein package ever fix the issue with split timing songs like Steps For Victory showing up multiple times? I never used it so I'm curious how much progress was made.

The top and bottom rows used to overlap and Starlight 2.0 is the first theme I know of to fix the top row. I’ve seen DDR World theme footage on YouTube that has the bottom row issue fixed.

It’s literally taken until this year for the wall of jackets to be recreated in StepMania without major issues (I personally consider the bottom row overlapping the folder like it does to be a major issue). When you scroll you can watch the jackets “shift” so to speak on folders where the bottom row overlaps. It’s very hacked together. I think it was around when Starlight 2.0 was released that the same issue for the top row was fixed. It’s taken years and a lot of very talented people to figure out how to make this kind of song wheel in StepMania. Konami has the advantage that their game is made to do it in the first place while StepMania is not made to do it at all which is why I referred to it as hacked together. But generally I agree that World looks like a StepMania theme. Especially with how bare bones and empty it was at the beginning, combined with the speed mod options, it reminded me of DDR’s version of Simply Love. It wasn’t necessarily bad, as a matter of fact I liked it, but it definitely didn’t have the visual flare that screams “this is an official DDR product”. It has a lot more to it now and looks really good though.

Turning off italics for the wall of jackets doesn’t make it an original stepmania concept, it’s still the same idea. X2-2013 was pretty much ripped right out of iTunes if you want to talk about stealing a concept.

I’m not 100% sure what that means, I’ve seen terms like N-0 before and was under the impression it meant latest version. But this update isn’t just customizing and challenge charts. There’s UI updates for sorting and the results screen. I’m sure there’s songs in there that we don’t have access to yet as well since there always is.

It looks like a pretty standard update with challenge charts and paid customization, I must be missing something. What is weird about it?
