Stepmania Simfile Pack - Gym Intervals (Crossfit LUA Mod Stepcharts)
[What is it?]
WATCH THE VIDEO!
I was on the treadmill doing some intervals in the gym and I thought it would be a cool idea to have something similar for dance games. So I thought about having long step charts pause for x seconds, display a random exercise you perform off the machine, then you have to get back on the machine before the countdown concludes. I'm too lazy to handcraft something like that, so I wrote some software that would generate this all for me. When the charts pause for a random exercise, a background animation will appear to notify you and an audio voice will count down. Once ZERO is called, the chart will resume. This simfile is entirely autogenerated 100% (subtle ultimate deniability right there). It will probably have small target audience, but it's a cool concept I thought I would share if anybody wants to try.
[Customization]
Of course! You can customize the charts in this pack very easily! We have options for: exercises count, exercise type, repeating exercises, exercises ordering and even countdown timer volume. To customize your experience: Open "_lua\_default.lua" and follow the instructions at the top of the file. I HEAVILY commented the LUA file, so if you want to learn LUA with Stepmania, it's pretty easy to get started now!
[The 101]
- It's not perfect, it's just a bit of fun.
- Don't Hide Background or use screen filters.
- At the moment, there are no: crossovers, mines or two arrow stream.
- Credits to the original artists and stepchart authors!
[Things to note]
- If 2 players are playing: BOTH players must play the same interval (not chart; interval). Eg. 1/3min
- Do not rename ANYTHING inside the pack! If you do, you will receive a 'Song Not Supported' Error.
[Charts]
There are 3 charts for EACH interval grouping:
Single - 1 chart
Double - 2 charts (Easy and Hard)
[Requests?]
Sure. I accept requests and I can autogen charts for whatever song. Send me the simfile for a chart on single player, alongside a list of time stamps where you want the intervals to happen. Easy!
[Learn LUA with SM]
I have used LUA a lot for other things in the past, but never with Stepmania. I have heavily commented the LUA file so you can get to grips with learning pretty easily.
Works with Stepmania 5 and above.
