Button status overlay

When watching osu! standard replays (or spectating), you will now be able to see how the player pressed their buttons. You can also toggle this on for your own playing, which is useful when streaming or recording a video of yourself (check under Input settings in options).

there will be one for CTB?

Gotta love that after the ''Fixed the occasional game freezes'' update I keep lagging while playing any video or sb and at the end of songs the fade from video/sb to beatmap background most of the times freezes
120 fps limiters makes my fps be more laggy than vsync

Except this, the beatmap selection improvement is a total win (more than 100% fps improvement compared to before)

About the osu!mania...its a interesting project but...nevermind

edit: Will the button status overlay be shown on other game modes too? peppy only referred osu!standard replays.

peppy wrote: 6w4l42

The overlay should not show for taiko mode.

Didn't really understood why, but nevermind

For now,we can see mania's rep.

All updates is very Awesome!
peppy, why some mod in o!mania not improving the score (ex. HR, FL, FD)?

wow good background， i will become a er in the feature

OSU! is awesome!!!!!!!!!

woc is still working on mods. they will be implemented soon.

my suggestion is HR, HD 1.06, DT and FL 1.12
because DT FL is harder than HR HD

Yay!

feature of seeing keys is genious, thank you.

mania mod will never increase the total score which is setted to 1M, but will help you to reach a higher score.

Yes, keep waiting for that~

What about o!m diffs in mapsets. Will they be rankable?

More interests of spectating now Yay

Great News!

A long time ago, I thought of the "seeing which keys you pressed" feature. I promptly forgot about it. D: I LOVE it! Might make replays more interesting.

Also, I've been practicing up on my osu!Mania skillz. :p I wonder how high I can get before official rankings?

And yet another reason why I need to become a er. Soon, soon! ;p

ppy new ava O.O!

Nice update! That spectator thing is pretty much useful and helpful without any doubt

With this build, osu!mania ranking is now in a beta testing stage. This means you can now submit scores for existing maps, but they will be reset after about a week, or maybe sooner. Use this time to have some fun and help us test the system out (make sure to report anything strange in Tech forum). Read on for a few more changes.

this will be mean including a Player Ranking ?

Not for the time being, as you can see, but yes there will be one: http://osu-ppy-sh.jeuxcrack.net/p/pp/?m=3

I don't have a 'WOW' computer (Sandy Bridge i3) but it always ran osu! perfect. With this update, the game constantly freezes for 1 second, or less, but like 25-30 times per beatmap. Not only the music freezes, the game too, so I lose a lot of notes. And, at the time I am writing this reply, I have osu! open, with "Don't stop me now". Imagine it sounds like: "i'm having a good timeeee" and a lot of phrases like that in other beatmaps. I would like to get the previous version, to see if its a problem of my computer, or from osu!. Yes, I ticked low-end PC in settings. It's an annoying bug. HELP :S

Performance Improvements

After a lot of testing, I believe to have fixed a few long-term issues which cause some s to experience occasional game-freezes that could last up to a second. Please let me know if you are seeing improvements by replying in this thread.

I noticed when going through songs on the Song Selection screen, it would freeze for about a second, this has been fixed in the latest build. Thanks ppy!

low end pc won't help. restart your pc. also use tech forum, not this thread.

I didn't quite get it. Is the entire build for ers, or only those special features?

Edit: AH duh! The changelog mentions it! That's what I get for %&@! Internet connection.

Awesome updates peppy! Everything seems to be in order and the performance of the game increased alot! Especially in the songs selection menu! Good job, and keep going with the awesome work!

Neat.

Still hoping we see more skinnable menu features in the future. Nice feature though.

Awesome

nice (:

nice job!

Still, it freeze a moment in those patterns..

You could try to implement some "dynamic" buffer of map element?

I really don't understand what you mean. SS w/o mods = 1 M, so SS with mods should equal > 1m There is no helping one get to 1 million higher, mods make things more challenging not more easier. If you think that you're just going to give more weight to the reward each hits you, then I am strongly opposed to that. It would definitely be a poorly balanced system and not make playing with mods worth it, since those who play with mods would have no problem playing it without mods, which nullifies this supposed weight, and it would give absolutely no benefit scoreboard wise as compared to other similar scores (no mod SS for example). Playing with mods just has to put the player at a greater scoring plane or they will only disadvantage the player and thus make them pointless and not worth the annoyance of using them.

peppy, a single question. The levels gained in the beta will be reseted too?

Yes, because level is directly linked to ranked score.

Fixed that for you

Oops, my bad.

Love the game!
but too hard for me

ELEMENT

I was pointing to adding a buffer so the game pre-load heavier parts before playing them, dynamic so that the buffer size is adapted to how many elements the map will have in the next seconds.
I don't actually even know if it's doable, though.

So I guess that means after this weeklong beta test we will then be able to mania charts? I'm anxious to get mine up haha

Because clicking with the mouse is different from pressing a button on your keyboard. It gives us a lot more information about how the player we spectate is playing.

They won't get ranked.

So there's not going to be any type of official quality filter on the mania charts? It seems silly that there would be an osu!mania ranking system if they aren't going to filter them. The generated charts from regular osu beatmaps aren't very fun, and I wouldn't really care to try and compete for scores on them.

Of course there will be ranking criteria for osu!mania maps. It may take a few weeks/months to get everything in place, but BSS submissions will be accepted in the near future after ranking goes live.

I urge anyone with previous experience in any bemani style games to start working on the criteria, using one of the existing game mode's criteria pages on the wiki as a template.

Is everything mania-related on profiles being wiped, such as S's, palycounts, etc.? Sorry if it was asked before...

More info: I'm using Osu! in windowed mode (1024x768) and trying to drag this image

you must buy er tag.

That was already anwered in the first page by 2 person, one of them was peppy.

/useless post

Does the level for Osu! Mania also reset as well?
I'm sorry, I didn't go through the pages -- however if this question is already answered, please just ignore me.

Love the button overlay but the mouse-clicks are very inaccurate for me. Most of my triple-notes show only show Z and X being pressed. At 800x600 resolution the overlay appears in the center of the health bar for me.

Position is intended for now (use widescreen for a nicer layout).

Also left mouse and key1 have always been the same key internally, so if you press one while already holding the other it will not click in-game.

Any chance of moving it back the top for widescreen (keep it where it is for 4:3)? I find it requires way more eye movement to watch now than it did when it was at the top. Like, it might as well be invisible most of the time now. At the top it was at least in my peripheral vision constantly.

Simple background changes

As a er, you can now change the main menu background quickly by dragging any image file into osu! while at the menu. If you don't already have a custom skin, osu! will make you one called "". This should be a lot easier than manually adding/replacing the file in your current skin, and allow for quickly previewing from a collection of images.

Awesome! Any chance of making this work with .gifs or something similar, since the default background is either a gif or media file or something technical?
