As the line of notes es by, I read it horizontally, and as my mental image of the pattern builds, I can begin predicting and seeing the vertical patterns, so I see both horizontal and vertical representations of the patterns simultaneously. Well, except on stuff like REALLY dense BMSs where I can't identify the patterns in any term aside from as a series of chords, or a series of chords with bursts mixed into them.And while stepmania encourages horizontal reading, I could still do vertical reading there (not that there's much need for it in 4k). I used the note coloring as a timing cue, and I always saw it as a separate \"layer of information\" on top of the column\/location\/music.<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n Looking for mods for my mania map Minori Chihara - Kyoukai no Kanata (TV Size)<\/a>.<\/span>Need some tips on how to improve in osu!mania?

It's like my mind has been polluted with muscle memory and I can't actually read the map anymore .-. Even if I get more skilled, I can't improve at maps I . And since mania has very little maps, I'm pretty much stuck unless I stop playing for a few weeks... I'm not good enough for BMS converts and almost all o2jam converts are low quality or mistimed.And before anyone suggests it, I dislike random mod because it ruins patterns :\/ There's very little chance for patterns i'm bad at to appear.<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n Bobbias<\/a>\n\n \n \n \n \n \n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n 1,447 posts\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n \n ed March 2011<\/strong>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n \n \n \n Bobbias<\/a>\n\n \n 2014-01-10T10:25:39+00:00<\/time>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n I think I mostly avoid that issue because I have so few plays on most maps I play.
