100% DIM YES NOW I DONT NEED TO DELETE THE BACKGROUNDS

Widescreen ? Yes! God, I love these updates!

peppy, is it just me or the i can't do the test play in the editor mode, it hangs on that particular position and it's not playing is it a bug?

Here's the screenshot (but is doesn't seem much help anyway XD) http://puu.sh/1DpYv

I'm really loving the widescreen, but why does the visual effects bar have to be so big? There's not that much stuff on it.

ah, cool update. but bit disappointed about removed no video mods :l

nice but the storyboards in widescreen looks bad

New fun spoiler looks neat

But it is not usable while spectating /watching replay since the spoiler will just slides back/ and stops player to toggle the settings

woo... G..Great..!

It's a good update, I like the removal of the No Video mod that didn't seem to belong among the others. What I really don't like is the fullscreen editor...

The bugs make me think this is the 12/21/12 everyone was talking about, but I'm sure they'll be fixed in no time ^^ Just seemed that this version wasn't completely ready for public release quite yet.

Thanks for the hard work, peppy! c:

look a bit closer at the new massive visual settings box it isn't gone just moved to a more fitting place

The Visual settings is annoying when i play CTB when i select a song. I dunno, it just annoys the crap out of me. It would be nice if it didn't pop up after you select a song and it pops up when you pause the game.

Plus, is it me or is the speed doubled on certain songs because i could've sworn it has. I mean, one song I'm trying to ace is now five times fucking harder then before.

I made the osu! AANGGGGGGGGRRRRYYYYYYY :'(
but the 100%dim option is so awesome

aaaaaah, my taiko backgrounds ;_;

Other than that, nice UI~

Seriously,I really like it but there is a problem with the spinner

The pics thiat I'm playing in full screen mode. Is it full screen mode doesn't with the spinner pics?

too many bugs....

1. For now, there is a message telling you not to delete backgrounds, but in the not-too-distant future maps with missing files will need to be fixed before they can submit scores.
   .

Enjoy .

let's hope this one will be include in next update
bcause I have this problem,
if I remove SB Files on a Beatmap file then the maps wont run no matter what, and seems like I need to re-DL it and I am very very lazy to do it.

Nice

one comment:
i know "skip" can skip more than before
but now the first note of some songs appear immediately after "skip"
so is it possible to add short prelude (e.g. 5 seconds) after "skip"? i think it is more playable.

Where is the option to go back to previous background style? This change doesn't work with some maps.

peppy wrote: 73101g

1. You can now use the visual settings to set background dim to 100% after ing the map once.

So.. much.. win..

Some features like BG transitions and widescreen crop feels like you're playing osu!droid...

<3

Vee~ cool

ALL THE TAIKO BACKGROUNDS DIED! ;___;
pretty sad now
I like the effect when you start a song <3

this update is very goooooooooooooooooood!!!
keep working
i love you ,ppy

Nice touch!

Just wonder if there's already hotkeys for those options? (while cursor hovers over visual )

eg
A = Disable Story Board
S = Ignore Skin
D = Ignore Hitsound
F = Disable Video
CTRL + Up/Down Arrow for Background Dim

i miss no video ._.

sorry for misreading, but what about the bug with big pictures? is it a bug or feature? :/

I find visual settings being on down border bad, why?
When for example i want to click show chat, and afterwards hit exit song, I can't because I need to move mouse out of visual settings spoiler, and then move again to hit exit

first I was like

"WOAH WHATZ IS THIS AT THEW BOTTOM OF MY SCREEN?!?"

I like visual settings on the bottom of the screen, they look... professional.
also, 100% dim will shut up everybody. it's nice that peppy found this compromise between mappers interest and performance oriented players interest. all in all, big update, much love, and probably one of the best things that could have happened at the worlds end <3

AAAAANNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGRRRRRRRRRRRRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYyyyyyy


it says when the BG is deleted

use dim..... Its not dark enough

Oh... Stupid update =_=

cool update of this year. 100% dim bg ftw!
but unfortunely i've deleted all of skin of beatmaps on my osu file since last week, damn it.

is there any way to get a bg back, instead of re beatmaps (a silly request)

Love the new look and the transition between the songs. Amazing stuff. But I have my "Playfield".jpg/.png to black but it seems that it's illegal to delete the backgrounds (even though plenty of them are just plenty distracting to begin with), I'd just like to have my background black.

This is a clear reason why I used to delete the backgrounds (and even storyboards because flying lyrical text going across the board is fun to watch...>.>). Keeping Osu! for me is to keep it as clean and clear to my eyes as possible without any distraction. I guess I'll just roll with it...with a tear.

No any other way aside from reing beatmaps. (beatmap packs or er's direct )
If you have some friends playing osu!, why not copy some beatmaps from them?

You can bring back your BGs by going to paint save it the same as the maps BG name

for example derp.jpg/png

Also is there anyway on how to hide the visual settings while spectating someone?

I wonder why video isn't fullscreen in osu!mania?



I want it to be fullscreen too

haha u wish xD

Awesome update, only thing I dislike is ofc having to the map once before disabling SB/skin/stuff and 100% dim the BG which is just annoying imo...

I heard people said that the no video mod is removed ( dead)

wow.. it's look like osu! become high-end games..

however, how about this left side?

Great visual upgrade. But with every new update FPS drops lower and lower. I look forward to updates to improve performance. Last update brought delays in starting beatmap with hardening cursor and drop FPS.

>maxed out dim
>disabled SB
>still can see flashing BG.

Welp that was fast.

Loving the new update

Nice update, gg.

Seriously, it's nice for maps without SB but for maps with SB... fix, please D:

How's the SB fix going to work? Just going to do letterboxing (basically making it look like it did before this update) or will there be stretching? And will it affect past and future maps differently?

EDIT: Never mind, seems ranked maps have been letterboxed, but unranked ones will need to be updated. Not a problem!

Will there be an option or fix to stop the Visual Settings from appearing as soon as a beatmap is loaded.
Sorry if someone has asked this already :/

[peppy] Add filter for hiding in-progress matches.

lol yesterday was complaining about the lack of a feature like this
well done!!!

Thanks for 100% background dim! I have no reason to complain about funspoilers anymore!

I will continue to delete every single background of beatmaps
and if can't do it anymore i'll uninstall it
i'm not playing osu to see ugly people faces or flashy ugly background while playing

If you continue to do that, then you're not playing osu!.
I keep everything as it's meant to be played.

Nice update, especially on the 100% dim thingy.

BTW now that this 100% dim patch is up, is there already a way to all missing files (backgrounds for example) or this "tool" will come in a new patch?

It really annoys me the osu symbol when I start playing a beatmap because it slows down my computer... .___. Am I the only one?...

FFF MANIA LOGO IS ATTACKING ME
WTH IS THIS VISUAL SETTINGS ON THE BOTTOM
IS THAT A LOADING CIRCLE-THING??
quit
NO VIDEO MOD IS ONLY ON VISUAL SETTINGS
SMOOTH BG TRANSITION
*insert fangirling here*

I like this new update overall! however I find it weird that still with the "low-end PC" the transitions on the song selection screen still apply.
(I'd also like to disable it anytime, I like to change maps quickly and transitions don't let me =/)

another thing is that I really dislike the widescreen with standard BGs, they end up cropping out on the sides and I really like having them complete =/... same thing goes with the videos...
there should be something to detect which maps are widescreen and which are not on the osu files (I dunno, a line which, if present, loads as widescreen and as standard if it doesn't have it)

seems like I'll have to add the black bars on the sides of my maps for the time being=/

СЛЫШ ПЕППИ ХУЕСОС ВЕРНИ ОБРАТНО ВСЕ КАК БЫЛО ХУЛИ ТЫ ХУЙНЮ ТВОРИШЬ ДАУН

Лично я - против последней обновы. Все что я в ней нашел из видимого мне не понравилось. Единственное позитивное - это приятный круг OSU! при старте карты. Итак начну свою критику. 1) Панель с низу (коротая всплывает при старте карты) меня изрядно бесит и сильно надоедает. К примеру когда збил комбо, жмешь заново и приходится ждать пока выскочит табличка и пропадет. Также она сильно отвлекает внимание. И ОЧЕНЬ сильно напрягает ждать пока она появится, пока спрячется и пока начнется проиграш и можно спокойно нажать SKIP. + путается с чатом 2)Я заметил поддержку широкоформатных мониторов. Да, конечно это большой плюс но есть свои НО, такие как некоторые картинки некорректно обрезаются, и не видно например головы на картинке/видео. Не смертельно но напрягает. Спинер все ещо квадратный и выглядит коряво после того как ты привык к фулскрину. И иногда заметил что слева, в рекордах иногда збивается построение, и буквы сливаются с очками и превращаются в некрасивую кашу. Да многим людям эта обнова наверняка понравится, но для тех кому она не очень буду просить маленькое добавление. Можно ли будет в настройках указывать где розмещять данную панель. То есть выбор из 2-n пунктов или маленькая збоку, или большая снизу и тому подобное. Надеюсь будут прогресс и эта прекрасная игра и дальше будет развиваться в лудшую сторону.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Personally, I - against the last Update. All I see in her from the visible I did not like. The only positive - it's a nice range of OSU! at the start of the map. So start my criticism. 1) with the bottom (short beatmaps pops up at the start), I was pretty angry and very annoying. For example when failed combo, you press again and have to wait until the pop label and lost. Also, it is highly distracting. AND VERY annoying to wait until it becomes available, and as long as hide proigrash starts and you can safely press SKIP. + Confused with chat 2) I noticed widescreen monitors. Yes, of course it is a big plus but has its BUT, such as some of the pictures are cut correctly, and do not see such a head on a picture / video. Not fatal but annoying. Spinner escho all square and looks sloppy after you got used to fulskrinu. And sometimes noticed that the left, records sometimes zbivaetsya building, and the letters are merged with the glasses and turn into an ugly mess. Yes, many people will enjoy this new thing, but for those to whom it is not going to ask for a small addition. Would it be possible to specify in the settings where rozmeschyat this . That is a choice of 2-n zboku items or small, or large bottom, and the like. I hope this will be made and a great game and will continue to develop in better side.

SPOILER

Happens to me, too. Didn't notice it til I saw your post.

Also, I'd like an option to disable widescreen BGs. They don't really look nice with the skin I'm using (the countdown is cut off from the sides) and it bothers me. I mean I could just make the countdown images 100% transparent, but they look nice and I'd rather keep them.

Are you kidding me?

I really like how the song pauses when changing the graphics settings, and I also like how it looks and the new location.
Although I don't really like having the Osu! splash/watermark at the start or having the loading circle. Before having the loading circle I never noticed the load time but now it seems to take a little while to get the song ready.

nice work

Awesome x3

first

I like this, thanks! :3

I don't care if I rank or not just get ri dof the annoying ass message of black backgrounds.

Eventually, you won't even be able to delete BGs when osz2 is implemented. The warning message is a step closer to this.

So for now, stop pissing all over mappers' hard work and deleting them, then you'll stop getting the messages ^^

Hmm interface is sexy. nice Peppy

Excellent! Thank you for the update, Peppy!

Actually, I'm still in the position of having to delete backgrounds... there are a number of maps where turning off the storyboard to stop flashes results in a black background, which I don't care for. So I still go in to remove flashes manually. and in one case recently I found that some of the flashes used the actual background image of the map, so I ended up deleting the background in order to play with a background instead of on an empty black screen. There's some irony for you.

peppy wrote: 73101g

Regarding background deletion:

1. You can now use the visual settings to set background dim to 100% after ing the map once.
2. You can on any mode – using nofail if you wish – as long as you get a score.
3. For now, there is a message telling you not to delete backgrounds, but in the not-too-distant future maps with missing files will need to be fixed before they can submit scores.
4. This will likely be an automated process, but the idea behind these changes is to stop you guys from deleting any more content, as fixing existing deleted files will mean a lengthy and cumbersome – especially for large libraries.

This explains absolutely nothing to me. I'm the type of player who plays a map a couple of times, retrying when I miss a note, and gradually improving, so this is going to hurt me massively. This is going to be horrible in multiplayer games where you can only dim ~50% on maps you've never completed before.

Why must backgrounds be forced on us? Can you really not cater for the audience who do not like backgrounds by making 100% background dim available without having to finish the map first? This way, the people who do like the backgrounds can leave it as it is, and the people who don't can dim it. It doesn't even matter if the new default available dim is 100%, it can be 70% or more (in my opinion a good minimum is 70%), just the current dim is way too low for bright maps.

I don't even want to go into beatmap skin problems caused as a result of the missing files need to be fixed schema. I (and many others) have used our skins for very long periods of time, to the point where we've optimized (at least I have) in such a way that it's perfect for us to get the highest precision.

The problem is that we don't have to delete the backgrounds, it's simple for peppy to implement a modification that allows people to dim their backgrounds more without having finished the map once before.

It would be interesting to get a tally of how many highly ranked players actually complete the maps with all their misses and combo drops, and then re-complete it again right after.

Backgrounds aren't even a problem for me except for reading AR10. And honestly, AR10 means that hard rock is on, and why would you play a song in multi with HR that you haven't even ed nomod? If you really can't stand playing a map with BG and skin elements, just rush through it with nofail+doubletime so you can play it how you want.

I don't know, I could have missed something as I haven't been playing osu! in a while, but seems like after this update, the beatmaps skin comes through weirdly even if it is disabled. Like sliders have the hitcircles from my skin and then the normal hitcircles have the skins one. :/

Wait, wat!? Now it is fixed when osu! crashed (I tried to adjust mania fall speed during a play, but I might've accidentally pressed win+ -). Also the crash happened when bancho was down. And it is still down as I am writing this.

wow nice i really love this ^^

i don't know much about technology or other stuff but can anyone explain to me what peppy wrote here: You can on any mode – using nofail if you wish – as long as you get a score.

To be able to dim to 100%, you can the map with any mod. For example, you can use nofail, and miss every single note and get 0 score, but the score is still submitted, and then you are able to move the slider to dim 100% on your next attempt.

Being able to dim only ~50% seems pretty useless, because if everyone is just going to be ing songs with NF + DT as quick as possible just to get 100% dim (probably without even trying the map on most maps), it would be much easier to have 100% dim from the start.

smoogipooo wrote: 4a5y4s

It's 60% now.
Also sometimes the BG flashes at 100% dim, but it's not that annoying, is this intentional or will there be a fix?

And I agree with MillhioreF. I am able to read maps perfectly fine at AR9 and below with the BG, and I still can't read AR10. (so n00b)
Also if the map is too hard for you it doesn't matter if you dim 100% or not. This isn't even considering the possibility that the host may have played the map 100 times already. I don't even know where you're going with this.


In favour of those who claim to be short on disk space: When osz2 does get released you should be allowed to delete videos without flagging for a "re." It's already freely disable-able in options and visual settings already. It would also help things (bandwidth-usage wise) from your end (peppy) if you didn't have to send large video files to players updating their beatmaps because they deleted some things. In almost 100% of these cases, said players will not even want the videos anyway, and most likely have them disabled in options.

I am not one who is short on disk space though, but for example:
My osu! songs folder is 56.5GB.
Searching for "ext: avi" and "ext: flv" gave me a total of 20.5GB.
Deleting those alone will reduce my songs folder to 36GB, more than 1/3 of the space used is videos.

I've seen a similar comparison where EVERYTHING except the mp3 and difficulties were deleted, and the folder was still 25GB+. It makes sense to at least allow videos to be deleted.

Not quite... scoring 0 with NF isn't even a , you need to hit at least one thing for that, but that's not good enough here because you need the game to a score and for that you need to score at least 10000.

Ah, i liked this update. But i don't really like the Widescreen background/video . I would disable it in options if i could
