As if the rest of the world isn't hearing about this, I'm spamming
pygame-users with the update. However, I'll keep this quick and painless:
grab it here: http://clickass.org/~tgz/pyddr/
get the new screenies from: http://clickass.org/~tgz/pyddr/screenshots.html
and the clip of the changelog:
pyDDR 0.5.4 - Sing, Sing, Sing, with a DDR thing
+ LYRICS SUPPORT
+ Oy, the lyrics option has always been there but no code to display em.
+ pyDDR comes with a lyrics tagger (lyricstag.py) that processes a text
file while playing an mp3 and writes out lyric data for step files
+ lyrics fade out based on how long they are
+ second line of text available for alternate languages
+ now that STEP files are a little more happy, format is in stepfile.txt
+ if you don't like lyrics, set 'showlyrics' to 0 in configfile
+ SONG BANNER SUPPORT
+ looks for stepfilename.png for banner
+ displays banner at bottom of screen - "SONG SELECT" now more transparent
+ crossfades smoothly between song banners when picking
+ much faster step file finding time
+ displays banner on startup when getting song informations
+ prerenders combo text and lyrics for speed boost
- combo text takes a few seconds to render on startup
+ only needs to render combo text once
+ DWI2STEP improved: actively tries to make offset something little and
calibrates steps it reads accordingly (works on dwi files I have)
+ new utility included with pyDDR - findbpm.py for tapping out bpm values
+ new configfile option 'showbackground'
+ big framerate improvement when backgrounds are off, good for older PCs
+ new configfile option 'arrowspin'
+ can be decimal and negative or positive, makes step arrows spin, 0 for off
+ 'none' announcer theme works again (sorry about that)
* fixed a few more sprite priorities
Happy chair- or mat-dancing!
