Hi all,
So for next time i'm willing to bring in a dancemat and even a projector if room permits for some random ddr fun, doesn't need to be a comp.
Unfortionately the dance mats break easily even though it will be a steel one, so if the admins would be willing to put a deposit up in case of panels getting broken (something like 20 bucks) and if it doesn't get broken everyone's happy
How many ppl would be interested in having a go and can we get an admin backing this up? (kitfox i'm looking at u in specific)
Cheers,
Primoz
Aight I'll prob still bring it just worried about damage so access might be a bit limited. Does anyone else have one so we can have duels?
Lol prim in not an actual admin, i just run the sc stuff n help out deadman wherever i can.
Plus guni is right
P.S: I'm all down for a ddr comp with mat, OR a stepmania comp with your keyboard, but if you break your leg on the dancemat respawn should not be held accountable, so you may have to fill out forms or some shit
Out the front.
The problem with the front near the admin desk, is i am going to hear eurobeat and jpop trash for 36 straight hours.
So no.
The back would be more likely
Thanks R4N for volunteering where to put it, because to be damned if I know where it will go if it's that freaking big! Maybe we can use Zardoz sleeping space for it instead?
If you are still looking for someone to help organize it I can definatley help.
How long are you wanting to have things set up? also you should keep in mind that some people might not be very... um... plesent to sit next to after a heated DDR off. Maybe if we are going to do it we should do it some time between when it gets cold and when people go to sleep.

If i can get it into a car from Bendigo i can bring my mat just a case of getting it there and back. i would be more than happy to help out with what i can. Do you want to hook it up to your pc with speakers or did you have something else in mind?
Hey,
Having a 2nd mat would be awesome! i'm just getting mine reinforced now
As for setup yes i would have it plugged into computer with speakers, most likely my own, but depending on circumstances i could get it all set up elsewhere.
I agree that ddr and the heat don't mix well, and i somehow don't think people will be very happy during the night when they're trying to sleep. Perhaps in the early morning?
I suppose ppl who want to play should bring a change of clothes or at least deoderant, but they should know that already
R4N, u clearly have not heard enough jpop and eurobeat to like it, so we will have to set up near you.
I have two mats for a PC, but they're just mats not reinforced or anything. If you can't find any others I can bring them (I don't really care if they break), plus I still have my stepmania tracks knocking around somewhere - I can bring those, too.
Due to one awesome person in particular (<3 you peach) my dance mat will be making it to respawn v19. I'm not sure where we can set it up yet as it does take up more than just one PC's space and it will not fit in the isle.
Have you reserved a seat Prim? If so where abouts are you?
As a side note i have managed to get the networked side of this game up and running. If you want to play a networked game there should be a server up at respawn (i still have to get this sorted with a certian Squidlywinks) but if you would like to pre-download/configure the networked stepmania for yourself I will be using version 3.95 (2005 build):
www.orbitoid.net/stepmania/stepmania_orbit.rar
And when we use the dance mats this is my fav version:
http://www.stepmania.com/download.php?file=StepMania4-alpha5.exe
Yo,
i'm reserved under That_Commander, bottom centre area. I'll bring some usb extensions so we can go a bit further from the walking areas, more appreciated.
I'll download and try that version n stuff, didn't realise you could multiplayer without hotseat - do this support more than two players at a time then?
Thanks for the support.
Just to reiterate i got 1 mat, its reinforced, tho it does make some noise if stepped on incorretly (usually if use your heel)
hey orbit,
the 2nd link from the stepmania site didn't work. when i click download it says error in header or something. Do i need something installed for it to work?
Hey guys,
Good to see there was a lot of interest. Will do it again next lan
I'll remember to pack the Plasma TV again, even though the damn thing is an epic space hog in my car!
ddr was amazing, if i didnt have a flu during respawn id have played more than ~10 songs (i was doing the 9 steps and brought over the chairs since im a bar hog normally)
I'm pretty shit (I can barely do 5 feet songs) but had an awesome time. Would play again.
I'm also bad at RTSes (I'm an FPS person), Starcraft in particular
we good to do this again this lan?
I should be able to get my DDR mat there (I'm yet to ask for help with this). I should be able to get a dedicated box for it also so we dont have to worry about getting everything set up again.
Last time we had a few issues with drivers on windows 7 when we had 2 mats connected, this shouldnt be a problem this time around as the box that i'm using is running xp and the drivers that we have for the mats are xp specific.
If Jeffy can bring his TV that would be ideal. That provides a space (where poker gets played), a screen and a set of speakers (The TV's speakers were loud enough and didnt seem to be too disruptive).
Let me know if you want anything different this time around. There should be many more songs as the box I'm bringing already has a large portion of the packs that i have downloaded over the years.
Any song requests? Best to get this sorted well before the event this time.
Hey, yeah still good to go. I might have to do some sticky taping to get he broken bits not making a cracking noise but i'll bring either way. It has a xbox adapter i think so should work fine.
DDRei Mix 8th Extreme and any anime mixes ftw
I will have to get the anime mixes again. i wasnt a huge fan so i deleted them i think. Now we just need to make sure that Jeffy can bring the TV again and we should have everything ready.
Sorry guys i wont be able to make it to Respawn this time around.
Did any DDR get played at Respawn V20?
I have been working on my home DDR box which i was going to bring to V20. I should be able to bring it to V21 to set up for anyone who wants a go.
I have made a very crude list of all the songs that i have on the box. I'm not sure of the quality of all these songs and there is bound to be HEAPS of double ups but i'll attach the list to this post.
It should look like this:
Pack1
___song1
___song2
___song3
Pack2
___song1
ect ect
If there are any video files or animations they will be listed as
Pack1
___song1
_____videofilename1
___song2
Please let me know if you have any songs/packs you want me to add to the list so we can play them at the next Respawn.
Sorry for the double post.
You need to save that txt file and open it in word pad or notepad for it to look anything like what I thought it would.
Any requests for songs/song packs to put on the DDR machine?
ddr supernova
ddr supernova 2
ddr-x
ddr-x2
ok currently i have ddr supernova, supernova 2 and DDR x. so i have to get ddr x 2
Just making sure you got the x-2 stepfiles lol, I really wanna play kimono princess expert/challenge, chart looks heaps fun
I shall be getting them tonight.
Is anyone else going to bring a DDR mat this time around? I only have 1 that I can bring. It is HEAPS more fun with 2 mats.
helps if i had a mat rofl
orbit i'll bring one next time, make sure you bring yours - i heard from a few ppl they're missing it already
I was mentioning this at respawn! I do like <3!
alright well i'll be coming and bringing it with me. if someone (i assume orbit) sets up the tv and whatever we can even play the damn thing. otherwise just come to me if you want to play (should be name Prim in DC)
so yeah we had it running for about 2 hours - with about 4 hours time needed to set it all up. wonder how many people noticed
anyway, may need a new mat for next time, this one doesn't like lvl 10+ songs on it
Just make sure you involve the admin crew so they can include it in their event planning.
I can't bring my 50" any-more as it now lives interstate.
Any admins want to oversee this getting set up?
I can bring a dancemat and some speakers.
my dancemat is fine as long as you dont push the buttons too fast (easy lvl 10 songs are ok, but anything more it bombs out).
