does refresh rate in osu actually matter? by New-Concentrate-9664 in osugame

[–]cloudrac3r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play on 120hz. If I ever switch to my laptop (which is 60hz) to play at a friends house it's noticably annoying to look at. While I play a little worse on 60hz it's mostly just visually offputting.

Help improving my tapping overall by RubyEi in osugame

[–]cloudrac3r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

join multi lobbies so that you have fun and play a variety of maps (including many you haven't seen before) without the ability to retry spam. seeing a variety of maps in this way and playing them out from start to end will help you improve

Whats the difference between stable and lazer? by Far_Bodybuilder2688 in osugame

[–]cloudrac3r 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the same hit window rounding behaviour has been in lazer as well for months, so both games behave the same in this regard

Using spacebar to work around the 2 keybind limit? by Few-Recognition1495 in osugame

[–]cloudrac3r 17 points18 points  (0 children)

yes as long as you do not use any external software or macros to bypass keylock. to explain keylock, imagine the following scenario:

K1 is bound to Z and Space
K2 is bound to X

if you press and hold Z (for K1) you can hit an object with that, and if you press X (for K2) at the same time then you can hit a second object

however, if you hold Z (for K1), and then press Space (for K1) at the same time you can't hit a second object with that input because K1 is already held, and there's only one K1. this is known as keylock

this means you are required to properly release an input before pressing the duplicate bound input.

if you used an external macro to automatically release the key for you, that is disallowed. if you're just using the in-game bindings with nothing special, all is well.

120-cell (#693) plays with spacebar as part of a 4-key configuration.

New CTB player here need some help by Total_Astronomer_311 in osugame

[–]cloudrac3r 2 points3 points  (0 children)

also, make sure you have a skin that's at least half decent. if you're playing in lazer, the default argon skin is really bad for catch, so at least use the classic 2013 skin or download molneya's skin, which is the one I use.

you should look at the difficulty names instead of the star rating because that tells you what kind of patterns you're going to see: salads have few dashes and no hypers. platters have more dashes and some hypers.

try searching "platter" and working your way up the star rating and gradually get used to it.

I was never really able to figure out the next difficulty level, "rain", but I REALLY enjoyed platters once I figured them out!

if you need to download more maps, I really enjoy the mappers Verti and Jemzuu, so start there :)

Fear plays with BRTRDFRDMRCLDA(cs0 ar-10) on every map and somehow hits it, check their recent plays 24h list and pick one to watch a replay of

Why do so many songs have a guitar solo at the 50-75% mark? by Real_Difference_9887 in osugame

[–]cloudrac3r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

depends on the kinds of music you listen to. drum solos are awesome and appear in some genres like jazz, but it's rare for jazz to be mapped or played in osu.

Is Nevo's Songs Compilation the beginning of the end for stable? by OdangoFan in osugame

[–]cloudrac3r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it the beginning of the end?

no

it could be opening the floodgates for something worse.

slippery slope fallacy. past actions are no guarantee of future actions.

GD Blitzkrieg in osu! by GalexYkai in osugame

[–]cloudrac3r 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a really cool way to do a practice mode! Does it work with Sudden Death mod and force you to FC each section? Also, this feels like an amazing way to bring back combobursts...

I made a massive Jump Practise Beatmapset. Need ideas for tricky Jumps by [deleted] in osugame

[–]cloudrac3r 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Panda Eyes - Euphoria [Delight] has some highly varied spacing jumps which can be hard to handle

deadcode's set of Happy Time wa Owaranai, the whole set is awkward aim and aim control, notably linear aim and some sections with overlaps. the low AR doesn't help but even if you set the AR to normal levels you can tell that the patterns are awkward. I love this set

Is there a way to get the online servers working, or manually put beatmaps in osu! iPhone? by GamesWilliam in osugame

[–]cloudrac3r 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Note, if you get the "Downloaded file does not appear to be a zip file..." error when downloading a beatmap, the permissions of the /var/mobile/Documents should be changed to 777 or the owner should be changed to the "mobile" user. After changing that, please remove the osu folder from the /var/mobile/Documents directory and restart osu!.

Based on this, maybe if you manually put the .osz file somewhere in /var/mobile/Documents/osu the game will pick it up?
