stepmania-devs — StepMania developer list

Re: [Stepmania-devs] Looking for guidance

[Devin J. P. <dj...@gm...>]

Hi Jonathan!

If you haven't already, stop in the #stepmania-devs IRC channel on
Freenode.  Most of us tend to lurk in there when not busy.

OSX support is definitely not dead, but we'd definitely appreciate
having a little help on that front.  Xcode 5 apparently broke a lot of
things, and we want to get that fixed!

I should mention that we're in release mode right now and trying to push
5.0 out as soon as feasible, so things like fixing Xcode compilation and
bug-squashing will be priorities over refactoring.  Take a look through
the bugtracker and pick something you like, and the devs can help you
navigate our (somewhat daunting) codebase.

[Stepmania-devs] Looking for guidance

[Jonathan C. <jc...@nd...>]

Hello everyone,

My name is Jonathan Cobian and I've become interested in joining the
Stepmania development team. I'm not really sure where I should look to find
work to do/code to contribute to. I'm developing on an Ubuntu machine but
on a side, does anyone know if the Mac OS X port is dead or not? I haven't
found anything for Xcode 5 so I'm wondering if it has been ported over
there yet. Anyways, I've compiled the source code and am ready to start
helping out if anyone would like to help me out. Preferably I'd like to do
something with improving some data structures but I'm open to any
suggestions. I'm new to the open source community so I appreciate all of
the guidance!

Thanks in advance,

Try now. I unbanned the whole range that would be causing the trouble (I
overlooked something when doing it, I'll have to look into it again later).

Hi,

Your Stepmania "create account" forum form says permission denied when
I try to access it.

Could you please fix this?

Re: [Stepmania-devs] Outputting game metrics to a file addon for Stepmania?

[David E. <dhe...@gm...>]

This is super awesome. Thank you guys so much.

This is part of a larger project I am working on to dashboard and track
metrics about EVERYTHING in my life. I'll be glad to share my results with
you guys.

Right now I am actively working on a few other things, so it might be some
time before I get around to doing Stepmania metrics. When I do though, you
can check it out (and other metric / dashboard stuff I'm working on) on my
github profile at: https://github.com/dechols

All the stuff I'm doing is open source, of course. :)

Re: [Stepmania-devs] Outputting game metrics to a file addon for Stepmania?

[Colby K. <sha...@gm...>]

I'm not aware of any released scripts that do what you're doing, just an
old proof of concept by AJ (I think it was AJ, at least) which dumped the
last played song title into a file.

Everything you need should be exposed. You can get stage stats and all that
easily, count steps from broadcast messages, etc. I need to update it but
the ScreenSelectMusic overlay in Optical (http://ssc.ajworld.net/?p=optical)
deals with getting stage stats.

The full Lua API reference is here:

Re: [Stepmania-devs] Outputting game metrics to a file addon for Stepmania?

[David E. <dhe...@gm...>]

Writing a file isn't a problem. I just want to make sure of a couple things
before I dive further. :)

#1 - I'm not duplicating some previous effort.
#2 - What i'm doing makes sense at all (like if there are zero apis exposed
for this kind of data, then this project obviously makes no sense).

Re: [Stepmania-devs] Outputting game metrics to a file addon for Stepmania?

[Colby K. <sha...@gm...>]

Do you just need to know how to write a file? You can use the RageFile
helpers for that stuff. There's a script in the game using it, check
/Themes/_fallback/Scripts/01 IniFile.lua.

The basic process is this:
        local file = RageFileUtil.CreateRageFile()

        if not file:Open(file_path, RageFile.WRITE) then
            -- log an error
            Warn( string.format("WriteFile(%s):
%s",file_path.file:GetError()) )
            file:destroy()
            return false
        end

        -- write some stuff
        file:PutLine("foo")

        file:Close()
        file:destroy()

A good file path would be somewhere in /Save, that should always be
writable. You'll find the output in whichever folder SM stores the saves on
your platform.

[Stepmania-devs] Outputting game metrics to a file addon for Stepmania?

[David E. <dhe...@gm...>]

Hey guys,

I am looking to either use an existing mod or create a mod that allows
Stepmania to store data from each song played.

The purpose is to store interesting data about when someone plays stepmania
so you can parse that data out to a dashbaord. So you could store things
like song name, song length, time played (local time), number of steps, and
so on.

I looked around and the closest thing I could find was the beginnings of a
LUA script using the Stepmania API. http://www.pastie.org/4076202

Do you guys know of any existing mod that may already do this in some way?
If not, do you think it would make sense to use the API to create something
like this?

Thanks for your help.

It depends on the actual setup. Pulseaudio as well as dmix can be
configured easily to resample at 48kHz. At worst people experience
larger latency. With the current setup it either works, or the program
prints to stderr a cryptic error users do not understand, if they
actually get to read it.

Thanks,

Pavel.

It may have originally been to get the most direct resampling path for
48khz-native devices (avoiding 48->44->48 resampling), but I don't remember
clearly.

[Stepmania-devs] Default alsa device

[Pavel H. <pav...@iv...>]

Hi,

Thanks for the wonderful work on stepmania. While trying to run it on my
linux HTPC, I found out the hard-coded alsa device in the source code is
"hw:0". This communicates directly with the sound card, which can be
already busy at that time, it requires the sound card accepts 16bit
samples (not case for Envy24 cards accepting 32bit samples only), it
bypasses all sound mixers, and expects that the card nb. 0 exists and is
the correct one.

IMO a better variant would be to use the "default" alsa device which
should be working universally on any setup. It is what vast majority of
media players use as default. I know I can change the SoundDevice in the
config file (that's how I made my setup work) but the "default" value
should work for most.

Thanks a lot for consideration.

Best regards,

Pavel.

Thanks Henrik.  The deadline is the 12th.  I jumped the gun by one week.

[Stepmania-devs] Reminder: StepMix phase 1 top 20 songs due tonight

[Chris D. <ch...@st...>]

Current StepMix Judges or others interested in judging:

Please send me your top 20 songs in the next 14 hours.  Reminder: You don't
need to have precise scores for each song - the point of this phase is to
quickly weed out the entries that have no chance of placing in the top 7.

If you'd like to judge but aren't able to get your top 20 in tonight, please
send me a quick mail so that we can make other arrangements.

Thanks!
-Chris
