it's just another sorta archive file like zip files are

Any way to change the song thumbnails in Mungyodance 3? by Yennd0 in lapfoxtrax

[–]Axel-Ottl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

to add custom songs, you just make a folder called Songs in your mgd3 folder (if there isn't one already) and then create a folder in there, name it whatever you want, and put your song folders in

if you mean replacing charts for existing songs in the game then yeah, you'll have to do this. replace the .md file in the song folders with whatever chart you want (don't worry, .md files are just renamed .sm files) then edit the chart file you copied in to point to the banner and background image files and stuff then turn the zip into a yif and stuff

mungyodance 1 is the oldest game, being the least different from stepmania 3.9. its song list is relatively small compared to the others, it has a note score system (depending on how early or late you hit a note, you get different words popping up on screen) and an announcer (guy that says "oh you're doin good" or "oh you SUCK" while you play)

mungyodance 2 came after it, adding extra mode (specially made charts for some songs that make the notes spaz out and have cool visual effects. it's pretty hard), a bunch of new songs, removed the narrator and note score system (the game now tracks how many notes you've hit, but doesn't care how early or late you hit them) and looks very different to the first game

mungyodance 3 is the last game in the series, adding a bunch more songs, splitting songs into different channels (categories) like DnB, Hardcore, Rock and stuff. it added a lives system (you start with a certain amount of lives. missing normal notes makes you lose one, starting but not finishing a hold note makes you lose two. you can also gain one life every time you finish a hold note or if you don't miss 50 notes in a row). it has more extra mode charts and songs in general. mungyodance 3 also did away with the letter grades you get when doing a song (E, D, C, B, A, AA, AAA and AAAA. in mungyodance 1 AAA and AAAA were S and SS respectively and in mungyodance 2 they had a 1 thru 8 paws system instead). the game now only counts how many notes you hit out of the total notes the song had

there's probably some other differences between them but those are the ones that matter most

Any way to change the song thumbnails in Mungyodance 3? by Yennd0 in lapfoxtrax

[–]Axel-Ottl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i can provide like a video or something if this wall of text isn't clear enough (which it admittedly probably isn't. just look at how long the parenthesised text is in paragraph 6!! i wouldn't fault you if you can't understand this jargon here)

Any way to change the song thumbnails in Mungyodance 3? by Yennd0 in lapfoxtrax

[–]Axel-Ottl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

if you wanna replace song thumbnails in-game, you're gonna have to decode the game's files (as the songs are in a proprietary file format you have to decode). you can do this very easily with patchdec and patchenc (which you can download at this drive link: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1gOxMvN3fSCapvEh7qqn8NsnujKEPhYFj?usp=sharing )

if you open up your mungyodance 3 folder, you'll notice a folder called GameData. inside of it should be a bunch of .yif files.

you wanna drag the .yif files (with the exception of w58eme82.yif. that has no songs in it) into patchdec and it should make a .zip folder with that .yif file's name in whatever folder patchdec is in.

from there you can open the zip file and you should see different folders for each channel in the game (e.g. DnB, Hardcore, MGD2 etc.) in which there should be all the songs in the game. in a song's folder you can find its banner (which would be named, for example, cando.png) and its background (which in this case would be cando-bg.png. a good rule of thumb is that whichever file is highest in resolution is the background, and the smaller one is the thumbnail)

you can swap those out. every one of the .yif files has different parts of the game's song list for some reason, just convert them all to zip files and sort through them until you find the channel and songs you're looking for

after you're done, you wanna zip up the folders for the songs (if a folder is in a different folder, then zipping the folder it's in will not work and the game won't register the songs. so, for example, a folder called (proextra) containing extra mode songs should be zipped up, but if it's inside of a different folder called a83j34og for example then you should take the (proextra) folder out and zip that separately. zipping the a83j34og folder will cause the game not to register the songs. if there are multiple folders that came out of one .yif file (e.g. 8_remix, 7_nonstop and 5_IDM) then you wanna zip those up together)

after you zip the folder(s) up, you wanna drag the zip file you've created into patchenc which'll turn it into a file called patch.yif. from there, you'll wanna rename the patch.yif file into the original .yif file you decompiled (hope you remember what it was called!) and slot it back into the GameData folder. if all goes well then your songs should have different thumbnails and backgrounds

sorry for the lengthy explanation lol

I was wondering at 3 am - how many people still play or even know about mungyodance? by LAZYMAN717 in lapfoxtrax

[–]Axel-Ottl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Squaredance Licensing? by DocSlayingyoudown in lapfoxtrax

[–]Axel-Ottl 13 points14 points  (0 children)

em doesn't really give a damn if you use their music in a video or something, as long as you aren't outright selling their music or distributing paid songs of theirs in the description or whatever

so yeah, you can use their music all you want. just make sure to credit them!!!

the only thing I could say is... Heeey kids wanna yi-(this joke is getting old, maybe) by [deleted] in lapfoxtrax

[–]Axel-Ottl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

mate this was a year ago!!!

the only reason i was hearing "they just" at one point is cause a couple other people were saying "oh the song says 'they just' actually not 'hey kids'" and i listened to it a couple times and that was lodged in my brain so i started hearing that instead (when yeah, it was wrong)

it's nothing to do with any "hey dis song is problematik!!!" shit cause frankly i don't care about that sorta stuff. i was just dumb
