Ok my plan is this. I want to have multiple versions of DDR sorted into various files, a 1st mix folder, 2nd mix, 3rd mix, extreme etc. I want each of these folders choosable in game, and when you open them to list the songs in that version. If 1st mix had paranoia 180, and so did 2nd mix, i want that song to appear in both folders. But I do not want to have 2 copies of the mp3+dwi+folder. The reason I dont want 2 copies is partly so that if I get a good score in one folder on a song it will be shown on the other folder, another reason is memory issues of course.

you can do this by adding the #GENRE: tag to your songs and sorting by genre. look in the readme that came with dwi for more information.

Is it possible to have multiple #GENREs? Wouldn't they conflict?

I just downloaded StepMania CVS, but every time I try to start it up I am getting this error message:

OpenGL hardware acceleration is not available on your system.

StepMania requires OpenGL hardware acceleration.

Please install the latest video driver from your graphics card vendor to enable OpenGL hardware acceleration.

DO NOT FILE THIS ERROR AS A BUG!

(Advanced: To allow use of the software renderer, set 'AllowSoftwareRenderer=1' in StepMania.ini)


Does anyone know how to fix this?

I'm having the same problem.. anybody know how to help?

So, did you do what the message told you, and download the latest drivers for your video card?

If it still doesn't work, what kind of video card/computer do you have?

I don't know what a video card is, or what drivers are. Can somebody tell me exactly what to do, please? Do you have any links for these downloads?

No you have a bigger problem. Problem being you can't be nice to someone trying to help you. So, consider any help from me... retarded.

It depends on your system, but the best way to get around this is just to run the sdl program in the DWI folder. It will run just the same as if you ran the exe. Almost always much smoother.

Ok, I just downloaded Stepmania CVS newest version. When I run it the program lags and the arrows wont respond in time and the menus lag and everything. I run Windows 2000, i have 512 MB RAM and a pentium 4 chip. Could the problem be my OS or is it just my computer. Because none of my friends who run XP have a problem.

Read the first post in this thread. It will explain where the sdl file is in the root of the DWI folder.

Your system looks fine. Do you have any other programs running or have the lastest version of DirectX?

I have the latets version of Direct X but yes my computer has other programs running the in the background that I need running. But the only other program I have open is AIM and i dont know if that takes up enough memory to make SM lag. But does anyone know if it has to do with Windows because Im the only one of my friends running 2000 and they all run XP and it works fine for them
