tears of joy :' )

any progress anyone? I'm still working on the text tutorials.

Not that I know of. I think we should handle this like a collaboration project. We split the problem up into separate themes/sections, which will represent individual videos. We can then list them and have people take claim to which parts they want to try to record. When they have something recorded, we can then review it (and display it in the OP).

Our mission will be complete when every part has a video.

Edit: Maybe it would be easier to compile a general guidelines on what each part should include and what it shouldn't include, but we should let the video makers decide how to make it. theowest I suggest including more lenient requirements for participation and indicate this initiative as more of a community based task that anyone can .

If you guys need help, I can try to lend a hand.

Me too.

koromo makes me livestream some mapping anyways because he wants to see me map >_> even though it's most boring process evarrrrrrrrrrr.

why koromo whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

I'd do it if I had a decent mic. But on the other hand on of mapping there are already tutorials out there that explain a lot. All we should need to do is just display how to set up a beatmap and how sliders and notes work. Everything else is just style.

will you please post links for those? I can't seem to find it >.<

viewtopic.php?f=13&t=3815 is this what you meant MMzz?

I'm willing to help. I originally was going to create a new Installation, Registration, and importing singular and groups of beatmaps, as well as alternative methods in installing beatmaps to allow s who don't quite understand how to do it other options. I did have all the recording and voice recorded with live movements, but my HDD crashed and all data was lost. My Mic quality isn't 100% awesome, but it's clear, and I've got a clear voice.

Chuck me something that doesn't involve mapping, and I'll give it a shot. I could even do something like "Tips & Tricks to improve your gameplay for Mice s". Just let me know where I can help.

This is a great idea, I'm glad people are willing to do this for the newbies.

Osu! is not an easy game, it's pretty hard so getting this project done will help everyone a lot.

Bravo, Osu! community, I applaud you.

Almost forgot about this... Oh and speaking of which, has anyone made any progress on anything?

Heh I would love to make a video on the and part. Kinda love doing tuts.

I would love to help you out with translating some videos into german! (subtitles)

Would that be ok?

We just need someone to make a tutorial. If you're willing and can speak well enough English, please try to make something. It will only make it harder to make the video if we stress all these specific criteria I realize. so if we just create a sample video, I'm sure it will be suitable.

Here I'll help organize it.

Videos needed

Introduction to the Editor: All the buttons, shortcuts, and windows should be explained briefly. Please include Preview time, and Kiai time. Also it would be nice if this was an intro to mapping as well, where you cover how to view ranking criteria, how to submit a map etc.


Timing: BPM and offset explanation, Common methods, how to determine timing signature, dealing with multiple BPMs/ offset changes, things to avoid/how to tell if your map is on time/ what you should do when you've already mapped a song and you need to change the timing. (Throw kiai and preview points into this since its there)

Mapping to the beat: Make sure the beginners know the basics- Hitcircles, sliders, spinners and how they are properly used. It is probably a good idea to go into basic types of mapping(stacks, jumps and streams, types of sliders, using symmetry, linear mapping, abstract mapping, overlap, blankets, crossovers, gaps and transitions, combo usage) It would also be a good idea to compare and contrast a beginner type song from a harder to map song. Briefly explain things like slider velocity changes (dos and donts), and explain the basic differences between the basic difficulty levels. Explain what makes an easy an Easy, a normal a Normal, etc....

Hitsounding: Effective ways to implement hitsounds in your map. It should include the dos and donts of hitsounding. Try to cover the most common approaches to hitsounding (explaining basic music theory would be helpful). to go into custom hitsounding as well and how it should be used.

Using the Design editor and the osb: Requirements are quite obvious. go through all the things one can do in this window, how to do loops, and other things that the common beatmapper may want to include. even more importantly try to explain what you should not do in maps.

Tutorial: Adjusting bitrate
Tutorial: Common ways to reduce filesize:

I think that's all we need for beginner mapping. Any additional videos would be for advanced mappers. Lets get the beginner videos finished first. Any takers?

I could make a quick video on how to time beatmaps and tips on getting them almost perfect.

Wow, this seems like a really great idea, and I'm quite surprised I haven't seen this thread until now. I wish I could help in any way possible, but all I know is I definitely don't have a good voice for a tutorial.

@TheVileOne: Narrowed down to 7 videos then?

@MMzz: Added for timing! /o/

@Loliflan: Sorry, the focus has shifted to the basic parts of mapping, you can choose one of those? (Look at TheVileOne's post for topics for tutorials)

Maybe we could introduce kiai and preview time into the Introduction video. Since they are important, but not really require you to learn how to time to know. It could also be the general things every beatmapper should know when they create a beatmap type of video. You could show the ranking criteria page, and explain common things like the Song Setup field etc. What goes in source, and tags, and what doesn't.

I can probably do hitsounding.

Feel free to edit my OP, I've been incredibly busy the past weeks and I need a lot of motivation and energy to start reply and cleaning up my OP.
but in the meantime, feel free to edit it yourself. TVO, you should be able to do that here.

I didn't actually think of that. I'm dumb. Fixed.

Can we get some progress on this? Do you want collaborative mapping or not?

I am so proud of you guys!
You come here an say: Yea let's really do this! We'll put so much effort!


Look what you got so far: You got lists.

We're busy people and this is all voluntary.

It doesn't have to be as proper, anyone can go ahead and make a tutorial of their own using our template for which video to make, etc.
The only thing that has to be done is start asking people who are willing to record themselves, to start recording.
I'm sorry I've kind of abandoned this, but as I said earlier, I'm occupying myself with other stuff right now and I really have to save up some time for this I guess.

Give some examples of the stuff you are busy with please.

work \:D/

Pff o3o

Ever heard of life? =.=

I'm going into the U.S. Air Force soon for BMT and I don't have time to do a tutorial. I would if I could but I can't.

And progress has been made!!!!

hurrr it's our periodic examssss, I'll try to work on this in a few weeks, since summer vacation is nearing.

Edit: oh cool Kuro, I didn't know you've been a Rhythm Incarnate already xD

I rewrote the OP and changed a lot of things. It's now more of a collection of video tutorials on osu! and all its game modes, but at the same time asking anyone to make a tutorial for it and helping out with what to include. If you're not making a video, you can help out by finding all the tutorials, posting them here and tell as many people as possible about this project!

with that, I think this should now be moved to Gameplay and Rankings where this topic also is t/3815/ as it's pretty much the same thing, but this is more up to date.

edit: this could very well be included in the wiki later on.
edit edit: great source for inspiration and guides to make video tutorials off of: https://osu-ppy-sh.jeuxcrack.net/forum/13

edit edit edit: this t/99612 would be great for improving tutorials. I know there are some, so help out by sending them this way.

I think we should move into the bug random mappers ingame to create videos for us stage.

I like this new formatting btw. It's very clean and precise.

hehe wait a sec i shall make an HD skin for this xD

I wouldn't mind making a quick video sometime, but my biggest setback would be my voice. It's not very foreigner-friendly and when I try to work on my diction, I sound like a complete moron.

Hoy Hoy!

Maybe I could participate somehow! Will be good for me since I quit LPing!

I'd do a taiko mapping tutorial if I: 1)Didnt have a speech impediment or 2)knew how to map taiko.

I guess I can help by saying that the information so far has been spot on and very helpful though!

If you would like to participate, please make text based tutorials for stuff. I tried starting a voiceless video (captions only) but I couldn't finish it because I lack so much knowledge on mapping (and I don't know what to put on the captions anymore so yeah).

Videos with explanations in voice is a problem considering we all don't speak the same language...I guess you'll have to make do with whatever strolls along here.

If you guys are making the videos, I can help with general scripting (and by that I mean coming up with what to say, how to present the information, chronological order of things, etc).

Some of the getting started/introduction stuff appeals to me, so I may do videos. I've been told I sound very professional and have a good voice for public speaking, so yeah. I also enjoy explaining and teaching things to others, so this is in my comfort zone.

I said I would like to help.

Then I proceed not to pay attention to this thread for months.

Now I don't know what's up.

pretty much p/2161114

anyway, just want to ask. What's the best setting for recording the screen? And what's the best program to record the screen? Seems like every program I tried makes osu! lag.

And woah. I never knew we'll be making real noob videos as well. (I mean, if you don't know how to , how will you be able to find these videos??)

Edit: I tried starting a text only timing video. I watched Charles' videos and I was surprised that I myself couldn't properly time maps :<
I'll just try doing the noob stuff for now :<

Edit Edit: I think I'll just go with the Mapping: Details, MP3, Background, etc...

Personally, I will livestream it using OBS and it on youtube from twitch.tv

I'd personally would rather just do mapping videos, probably more basic stuff, if anything. Unless we need really need something else?

I could also do hitsounding I guess.

But I've been quite busy lately, and I do not have a whole lot of experience making videos in the first place, but I guess I'll see what happens.

Do whatever you want, just submit whatever tutorial you have made to this topic. We accept any osu! related tutorials.

probably you should put this inside the storyboarding too? I learn most of it from here.a video by Doomsday.

That was pretty good, and is still up-to-date I guess. Added.

Did he ever create a topic or post with this video? Basically, where on osu! did you find it?

I got it from ziin when I'm learning how to make a storyboard.I don't know where's the real source or "if there is a" thread that Doomsday make to show this video in public.I'll try to search if I found it,I'll tell you.

I personally made a tutorial on osu!....give me your thoughts?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dm-3Z9LL78U

Damn I made a tutorial on how to beatmaps but it broke while it was saving

#TheStruggleIsReal

I'll try the livestreaming option later. Except like I'd like to be able to edit it and stuff



There's a lot of other tutorials, on how to , but this is the first one that has been contributed here .

A video version of the Delicious Sliders guide could be nice.

I would probably do it if a) I had a microphone, and b) I actually knew how to make delicious sliders

I'm in love with CDFA's voice <3

Oh, I could have a go at a slider video. The only problem would be my extremely thick accent, so captions would probably be essential. I've never made a YouTube video before, so I'm not that sure about how to add them and that.

You can add an .srt subtitle file (I think it was .srt) to your video after you've ed it afair.

Yeah, I'll make a tutorial when I get back from L.A. this week

I'd be able to make a decent guide on (Advanced?) Gameplay / explanation of mods or something similar, if no one has done it yet.
I have a quality microphone and great amounts of experience with making guides and such.

No need to ask. Just make one.

BTW we might never get this collab if we have to teach people how to make every gamemode for every category. It would be possible to have a single video/ short series of videos to cover mapping for the other gamemodes.

If you guys make a video, post it here. It doesn't need to be perfect, but make sure you cover all the basic elements related to the topic you are making. Some of the topics are very simple. It doesn't take an expert to record a video on how the game works and as long as people can reasonably understand what you are saying and you aren't stumbling over your words all over the video an accent likely will not be an issue. We can add subtitles if necessary.

(If you ask me, the people who need these guides most are people who don't know English that well). They may understand the subtitles better.

So all the empty spots in the list are still needing a video right? I can try to make a beginner beginner video on the ing and importing processes.....
Maybe if i have time some basic intros to the game styles also.

I could help if it's in my better field! Let's make it happen guys.

Just give me a topic and I'll provide my biased opinions on the matter, sprinkled with other people's opinions as well.

edit: Is it ok if I cover the introduction of the editor?

There is currently something in the works for this and will be rolled out soon.

Are you saying that my tutorial then won't be needed? answer fast please!

Afaik there is already project of tutorials going on, done by ztrot, so I guess not.

Well that's great! It means the collab feature will be worked on soon!

I don't have the utmost confidence that ztrot will have the time to make video tutorials. If you want to make a video, feel free to make one. There's no harm in having more than one tutorial, especially if you speak a different language. If you can make a video tutorial in your native language that would very much appreciated, especially by those who have trouble understanding English.

inb4peppy expects video tutorials for all the major languages.

Yeah but pretty much every swede learns English as a second language in school so I don't think they have a problem with english speaking vids :/

I would appreciate it if Ztrot replied with a more thorough explaination.

Peppy: Get on the collab project asap!

<3 ztrot

I stand corrected. I completely forgot about your osu!academy.

I will check them out when I get home from college.

another video was released today if you want to check it out

Very professional videos you're putting out. Gl with this project.

Now that the osu!academy has been running for 8 months and going strong, can I mark this as added?
